Li Mu nodded, untied the Spiritual Ship's design plans, and infused it with his Divine Sense, pondering over it with careful study.
Refining a Spiritual Ship is completely different from refining a Spiritual Artifact, yet there are some similarities. It involves arranging the Artifact Base Array, but instead of condensing Artifact Patterns, it involves setting up various arrays, such as the Sky-controlling Array, Spirit Array, Defense Array, Attack Array, and so on, with a variety of arrays.
For example, the plans for this Spiritual Ship in hand uses Tier Three Golden Flame Spirit Wood for the hull. With a thirty-six-zhang ship body, it requires the arrangement of hundreds to thousands of Array Patterns, connecting various arrays, and so on.
With Li Mu's Artifact Refining skills and array proficiency, spending some focused time, refining this Spiritual Ship should be no problem.
However, Li Mu had reservations and was unwilling to get involved in this matter.
If he joined the team refining the Spiritual Ship, his status in the Sect would certainly be greatly elevated, bringing him into the higher echelons' view within the Sect.
Involving the Sect's core, he would certainly have to meet with the Sect Master and Nascent Soul True Monarch to discuss various matters, which was precisely what Li Mu wanted to avoid.
"Elder Yin, thank you for valuing me, but I truly cannot delve deep into this Spiritual Ship. I prefer to continue refining artifacts. I'm here this time to receive a batch of Artifact Refining tasks. Refining this kind of Spiritual Ship is quite troublesome, so I'll abstain from joining." Li Mu handed the design plans of the Spiritual Ship back to Yin Xianwen, firmly rejecting.
"Uh! Alright! Since Elder Li doesn't want to refine the Spiritual Ship, I won't force it! Just right, I have a batch of urgent Artifact Refining tasks on hand, so I'll assign them to you!" Yin Xianwen smiled bitterly, nodded, accepted the Spiritual Ship plans, and indicated.
"Thank you, Elder Yin!" Li Mu was delighted, quickly handing over his Identity Token.
Soon, Yin Xianwen swiftly assigned Li Mu ten Tier Four Spiritual Artifact Refining tasks, once again proving the Sect's current tense situation, with many Golden Core Disciples, and the Sect exhausting its heritage, vigorously refining artifacts, gearing up for war.
After receiving the Spiritual Artifact tasks, Li Mu didn't chat with Elder Yin for too long. After drinking the Spirit Tea, he bid farewell to him.
Leaving Hundred Refinement Peak, Li Mu changed into low-profile disciple attire and proceeded to the Contribution Hall at Supreme Profound Peak to exchange resources.
Raising Xiaojin and Xiaowa, two big-bitten kings, increased his demand for high-tier Demon Beast resources significantly.
Especially since Xiaojin, who practiced the Spirit Devouring Health Technique, had already reached the Tier Two Demon Beast Peak, on the verge of breaking through to Tier Three, his need for high-tier Demon Beast Meat more than doubled.
Furthermore, Li Mu was also cultivating the Spirit Devouring Health Technique, requiring the consumption of the meat of over a dozen Tier Three Demon Beasts each month.
"Elder, the Tier Three Demon Beast meat is out of stock, but we still have a few Tier Four ones. Can you exchange for Tier Four?" The Management Disciple responsible for resource exchange at the Contribution Hall recognized Li Mu and said apologetically.
This Artifact Refining Elder in front of him was somewhat famous in the Contribution Hall.
His Artifact Refining skills were impeccable, and the resources he exchanged for were quite peculiar: Spirit Plants, Demon Beast Meat, various Spirit Objects for cultivating Spirit Plants. Being an Artifact Refining Elder, he curiously didn't exchange for materials related to Artifact Refining, which was quite odd.
"Tier Four, huh! It's too expensive! Go ahead and exchange it for me!" Li Mu frowned and decided.
Once he completes the ten Artifact Refining tasks, he can gain an additional amount of Contribution Value, no longer needing to be so stingy.
"Alright! You still have 62,000 Contribution Points available, let's exchange it for 1,250 jin of Tier Four Demon Beast Meat, how about that?" The Management Disciple smiled at Li Mu and suggested.
"What kind of Demon Beast Meat is so expensive?" Li Mu's heart ached as he asked with concern.
"It's from a Tier Four Blood Prison Tiger at 50 Points per jin, not expensive at all. The Spirit Essence contained in this Demon Beast Meat is dozens of times that of Tier Three Demon Beast Meat, definitely worth the price. This kind of Demon Beast Meat is particularly effective for promoting Beast Taming. Of course, if Elder Li wishes to consume it yourself, please be cautious, as Tier Four Demon Beast Meat isn't easy to digest." The Management Disciple kindly reminded Li Mu.
Upon hearing that the Tier Four Blood Prison Tiger Meat was effective for promoting Beast Taming, Li Mu was instantly tempted. Xiaojin has been stuck at the Tier Two Peak for some time; perhaps he could leverage the Spirit Essence within this Demon Beast Meat to break through to Tier Three.
"Alright, go ahead and exchange it for me!" Li Mu agreed happily.
"Okay!" The Management Disciple smiled and nodded, deducting a large portion of Contribution Points from the Token.
The next moment, a large wooden box appeared from the Small Teleportation Array, containing a half-piece of Blood Prison Tiger Meat, exuding a terrifying demonic aura.
"Elder Li, please confirm your Token and Demon Beast Meat." The Management Disciple handed the Token back to Li Mu, smiling as he indicated.
"Thank you!" Li Mu received the Token, waved his hand, and stored the Demon Beast Meat into the Nine Treasures Spirit Pearl.
Sword-controlling back to Moon Pearl Peak, Li Mu scanned with his Divine Sense and Sword-controlling flew towards the 'Beast Taming Garden.'
Though called the Beast Taming Garden, it actually had no buildings, just a vast stretch of Spirit Mountain wasteland, a bit distant from Yin Yang Valley, where Li Mu cast spells to create two gigantic 'caves,' spacious enough for Xiaojin and Xiaowa to rest.
Before Li Mu's figure arrived, he had already notified them via the Spirit Taming Contract Seal, and Xiaojin and Xiaowa emerged from the cave to greet him.
As Li Mu descended with Sword Control, he looked at the two Giant Beasts standing before him, noticeably larger than a few days ago, and for a moment, felt a little sentimental.
Xiaojin was like a smaller version of 'Vajra,' but having practiced the Spirit Devouring Health Technique, Xiaojin's body was leaner, not as bulky, standing nearly four meters tall when upright, with a restrained aura, its muscles subtly glowing with a golden sheen.
Xiaowa resembled 'Godzilla' greatly, twice Xiaojin's size, carrying a massive Black Rock Armor on its back, emanating the robust aura of a Tier Four Demon Beast. In front of it, Xiaojin seemed like a younger sibling, looking at him with big, dark eyes, filled with innocence and purity, exuding a simple and honest demeanor, starkly contrasting its formidable appearance.
