Chapter 65
After a long silence in the room, Li Muyang opened his eyes again, a faint divine light flashing within them.
The next second, he rose to his feet, and a small wheel appeared out of thin air in his hand.
The wheel was about the size of a palm, made of an unknown material, and was engraved with many fine, mysterious patterns.
Refining the treasure was not difficult, especially since it was still only a mortal-grade treasure, and Li Muyang easily succeeded in refining it.
With the successful refinement of the treasure, Li Muyang stepped out the door and went outside.
The night sky was filled with stars, and the moonlight washed over everything, with the occasional roar of beasts coming from the wilderness and forests not far away.
This halfway up the mountain, away from the crowds, was empty and quiet.
Li Muyang stood at the door for a moment, then turned into a fleeting shadow and walked into the primeval forest behind the spiritual field.
In the forest, ancient trees reached the sky, and thick bushes were everywhere—places that were almost never visited. Li Muyang found a secluded corner in the depths of the dense forest, where few people ever went, and then he activated the wheel in his hand.
A faint aura of spirit light emerged from the wheel, which then flew straight out and cut a tree, thick enough to be embraced by a person, cleanly in half at the waist, leaving an extremely smooth and even cut.Li Muyang clicked his tongue in wonder: “Such power, even among mortal-grade treasures, is quite impressive, isn’t it?”
Worthy of being a system-given treasure, even now as a mortal-grade, its power already outclassed ordinary mortal-grade treasures.
Not to mention that this wheel had other clever uses besides being thrown out to hit people…
With a thought, Li Muyang’s gaze turned to a leopard in the nearby bushes.
The beast was crouching in the bushes, watching Li Muyang warily, seemingly ready to pounce.
However, Li Muyang retracted the wheel, and the small wheel began to spin in the air in the palm of his hand.
As the wheel slowly rotated, an invisible force locked onto the leopard in the bushes.
The leopard’s body suddenly stiffened, terror apparent in its eyes, unable to understand why it couldn’t move.

The instinct to survive made the leopard struggle.
The wheel in Li Muyang’s hand turned slowly, like a millstone grinding over. When the wheel in Li Muyang’s hand completed a full rotation, the leopard in the bushes collapsed weakly.
The leopard appeared unharmed, but a wisp of smoke drifted out from its body and eventually floated into Li Muyang’s wheel.
–This was another clever use of the wheel treasure. It could crush souls!
However, it was somewhat strenuous to kill even a leopard now, and it seemed difficult to rely on this to kill the souls of cultivators.
On the other hand, even if the wheel couldn’t kill, the wheel could immobilize the target’s soul, rendering it unable to move, which was a more useful ability at the moment.
If he really encountered a formidable enemy, Li Muyang didn’t expect the wheel to crush the opponent. As long as the wheel could immobilize the opponent’s soul for a few seconds, he could basically determine the outcome of the fight.
“Such a great thing…”
Li Muyang looked at the small wheel floating in his hand, growing fonder of it the more he looked.
However, after playing with it for a while, Li Muyang calmed down and returned the wheel to his dantian.
He closed his eyes and checked the system’s clearance settlement again.
This perfect clearance had given him an achievement called 【Trek Through the Netherworld】.
【Trek Through the Netherworld: Stepping into the mist, calming tens of thousands of resentful spirits, and averting an impending crisis, gaining 20% resistance to ethereal body damage, and attacks from the deceased will inflict 20% less damage on you】
“This achievement…”
Li Muyang stroked his chin, pondering.
It sounded powerful, and in a world filled with evil spirits, this 20% resistance to ethereal bodies would be invincible.
But in the world Li Muyang lived in, there weren’t many evil spirits, and those that did exist were mostly at a level that could be dealt with by the Qi Refining Realm.
After all, this was a world filled with cultivators, leaving little room for evil spirits and resentful souls to exist.
Li Muyang didn’t pay much attention to this achievement but instead started to care about his character card.
The last clearance of the beginner’s tutorial had given him Wuming’s character card, so this time it should be Immortal Nanhua’s, right?
Li Muyang’s eyes widened in anticipation.
In his field of vision, a character card illustration appeared.
【Acquired Exclusive Character Card: Mysterious Immortal】
【Mysterious Immortal: Unfathomable, the Great Dao is the simplest】
【Identity Background: Traversed the mist with a primordial spirit, entering the city and descending into a corpse, a mysterious immortal master who calmed a myriad of resentful spirits about to lose control, saved the Dragon Deity Fairy, and averted an impending disaster. It is said that he comes from ancient times, possessing forbidden knowledge unknown to others, and even the Dao fruits he casually speaks of can make immortals envious】
【Innate Abilities: Shrinking the ground to an inch, purifying the souls of the dead】
The character card in the field of vision was still a dark black card, with intricate and mysterious patterns swirling around the edges.
And in the pattern, the illustration showed a gentle and inscrutable immortal master standing in the mist, holding a Resentful Spirit Orb, enlightening the souls…
Just like constable Wuming’s character card, the only difference was…
“Why does the face in this illustration look like mine?”
Li Muyang was momentarily stunned, subconsciously touching his own face.
Everything about this Mysterious Immortal character card was great, except that the facial features were identical to Li Muyang’s.
“In other words, this thing is just a picture of Li Muyang!”
“Could it be because of the true immersion mode?”
Li Muyang hesitated and speculated.
In the opening animation of the previous game, Immortal Nanhua looked nothing like him.
But after using the true immersion mode and personally entering the game to clear it, the character card turned into his own appearance?
“There’s something odd about this game.”
Li Muyang frowned.
He always felt that there was something strange about the game 《Three Kingdoms: Demon Subduing Record》
It’s supposed to be set in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, but apart from the NPC’s having Three Kingdoms character IDs and health bars above their heads, there were almost no elements of the Three Kingdoms.
Intuition told Li Muyang that this 《Three Kingdoms: Demon Subduing Record》 was different from the previous two games, but he couldn’t quite put his finger on what exactly was different.
“Forget it, if it looks the same, then it’s the same. After all, it’s just a character card, and I might not even use it in the future.”
Li Muyang exited the system interface and turned to walk out of the forest.
To clear the game 《Three Kingdoms: Demon Subduing Record》, he had pulled several all-nighters.
Now that he had cleared the game, it was time to rest properly.
The withered seeds in the field also needed to be replanted.
Although he didn’t rely on farming to make a living, if he wanted to live a peaceful life in the Demon Refining Sect, he had to keep up the facade of being a Spiritual Planter.
However, at the current pace, Li Muyang had already reached the Eighth Layer of the Qi Refining Realm, and it wouldn’t be long before he reached the Ninth Layer and achieved great perfection.
Then he could directly establish his foundation and become a true Foundation Establishment cultivator, and consider leaving the Demon Refining Sect.
The techniques given to outer disciples by the Demon Refining Sect only went up to the Foundation Establishment Realm.
For the next game’s clearing reward, Li Muyang had to choose a secret manual to practice.
For Li Muyang to improve right now, a cultivation manual is an urgent need.
