Chapter 621 - 339: Wood Element Clone_2
...
Fifteen days passed swiftly, like a fleeting horse, and Li Mu successfully condensed the Wood Element Clone.
Its appearance bore a striking resemblance to Li Mu, but it was more youthful and handsome, like Li Mu in his teenage years. It exuded a powerful wood attribute aura, seemingly merged with nature, giving off a vibrant feeling.
"Fellow Daoist Mu, I trust you’ve been well!" Li Mu couldn’t help but greet with a smile, looking at the vibrant clone before him.
"You and I are one; there’s no need for formalities!" The Wood Element Clone gave Li Mu a sideways glance, responding rather irritably.
"Haha! Indeed!" Li Mu laughed heartily, observing the slightly stiff facial expression and somewhat unnatural movements of the clone. He knew it still needed time to adapt and stabilize.
"Stop laughing, I’m not stable right now. I’m heading out to stabilize this body." The Wood Element Clone said to Li Mu impatiently, clearly dissatisfied with its current state.
Li Mu nodded with a smile, watching the clone leave,
The next moment, the Wood Element Clone shot out of the cultivation room, heading towards the wood element area of the Five Elements Spirit Mountain to cultivate on its own.
The sensation Li Mu got from the Wood Element Clone was peculiar. It felt like facing a separate entity, yet it was intricately linked to the main body. This clone seemed to have its own thoughts, emotions, and consciousness, but it was completely under the main body’s control, unlike a split personality.
Through interactions with the Wood Element Clone, Li Mu deeply sensed this subtle connection. He found that although the clone had its own character and traits, its actions and decisions always revolved around the main body’s interests and goals. He could clearly perceive the presence of the main body’s consciousness, an indescribable resonance, as if two souls echoed each other.
However, this unique connection didn’t trouble Li Mu too much. But with one clone it’s manageable; if seven were refined, ...
Li Mu frowned, fearing the danger of losing control.
The refining and controlling of clones required extremely high skill and experience, with even a slight mistake potentially leading to unexpected consequences. Hence, Li Mu paused the refinement of the second Divinity Transformation Avatar to first adapt to the state of the first clone, ensuring control over it.
Li Mu then flew out of the cultivation room to check the cultivation state of the Wood Element Clone. He found it rapidly absorbing the surrounding wood element spirit qi, forming a green vortex around its body, slowly rotating.
Li Mu nodded in satisfaction. Once the Wood Element Clone stabilized, although its combat power was slightly inferior, it could assist in other areas, such as taking care of spirit plants, which was a significant help.
Li Mu pondered and began to sort through the congratulatory gifts given to him by Tianshang Supreme, Venerable Kun Ling, and numerous Divinity Transformation Cultivators for advancing to the Divinity Transformation stage, taking out one jade box and spirit box at a time and opening them one by one.
Under the Innate Divine Power - Recognition of Ten Thousand Spirits, the attributes of each spiritual object appeared before Li Mu’s eyes.

...
Seeing so many high-tier spiritual objects, Li Mu’s eyes lit up slightly, and a strong impulse surged within him.
Li Mu couldn’t help but decide to conduct an artifact refining session to test the Eightfold Celestial Fire Forging Method under another kind of celestial fire.
Li Mu quickly performed the Artifact Refining Divine Techniques - Celestial Fire Furnace, summoning the Yin Yang Thunder Flame, condensing it into a silver-red celestial fire furnace.
As the celestial fire furnace formed from the Yin Yang Thunder Flame, it radiated strong thunder spirit fluctuations, resembling a small-scale celestial thunder tribulation, emitting boundless thunder elemental power.
Unlike the strong spirituality of the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, this Yin Yang Thunder Flame, catalyzed by the Heavenly Dao, inherently lacked high spirituality. After Li Mu’s refinement, with the dissipation of the thunder tribulation, its spirituality nearly vanished.
In Li Mu’s hands, techniques constantly changed, and the furnace’s temperature fluctuated accordingly, rising and falling, controlled at will. However, the downside was that without the strong spirituality of the Extreme Yang Celestial Fire, it meant Li Mu had to expend more spiritual power and divine thought to wield it.
Li Mu had already advanced to the Divinity Transformation Realm; his True Essence and divine thought had become immensely powerful, making this refining expenditure acceptable.
Soon, under Li Mu’s artifact refining techniques, the temperature of the celestial fire furnace gradually increased, with the Yin Yang Thunder Flame inside growing increasingly fierce, seemingly igniting the entire space.
Under the reflection of the Yin Yang Thunder Flame in the furnace, Li Mu’s expression appeared particularly solemn as he pondered what spiritual materials to invest in and what spirit treasure to refine.
...
Time flew by like a fleeting horse; two months passed in a blink.
On Ten Thousand Stars Island, Li’s Treasure Tower stood proudly amidst the bustling market, with a constant flow of customers coming and going. However, on the tower’s rooftop, a figure was lurking, patiently waiting for his target to appear.
This figure was Mo Qian, a Void Refining Cultivator of the Blood Demon Race. He had been lurking at Li’s Treasure Tower for a long time, waiting for a perfect assassination opportunity.
Mo Qian’s entire body merged into the night, his eyes half-closed, maintaining a calm heart, patiently waiting for the target to appear.
During these two months, Mo Qian had briefly left to report his progress to the Blood Demon Lord - Dana.
Faced with the inquiry of the Blood Demon Lord - Dana, Mo Qian truthfully reported the target’s situation and informed him that Li Mu had successfully advanced to the Divinity Transformation stage.
After listening to Mo Qian’s report, the Blood Demon Lord - Dana frowned, contemplating the next action. After weighing the pros and cons, he decided to let Mo Qian continue executing the assassination plan.
"Remember, there must be no noise; it must be resolved in the dark." Dana coldly stated, his eyes flashing with a fierce gleam.
Mo Qian’s heart tensed; he must carefully execute this task without any mistakes.
Hence, Mo Qian returned to Li’s Treasure Tower, lurking at the rooftop, waiting for the opportunity to come.
During these two months, Mo Qian remained constantly vigilant, not daring to relax in the slightest, continuously observing the surrounding situation, analyzing every possible change that might occur.
In these two months, Mo Qian had also become intimately familiar with the entire layout of Li’s Treasure Tower. The tower was equipped with many complex high-tier arrays, which, once activated or triggered, would require considerable effort to break, even for him.
Fortunately, these arrays mainly functioned for external defense rather than internal. Successfully blending into Li’s Treasure Tower, these arrays posed no threat to Mo Qian; as long as the target appeared, he only needed a breath’s time for a fatal strike.
The target, having just passed the Divinity Transformation Thunder Tribulation, would undoubtedly need a period of seclusion, so Mo Qian patiently waited.
Finally, after the long wait of nearly two months, Mo Qian sensed the long-awaited target appearing. He was entering Li’s Treasure Tower, completely oblivious to the danger lurking on the rooftop.
Mo Qian’s heart tightened as he waited for the target to ascend the tower, preparing to launch the assassination action.
