Chapter 211 - Undercurrent Flurry
Li Mu was completely unaware of what was happening at the entrance of Heavenly Demon Valley. After three days of recovery, the True Essence in his body had long recovered completely, and most of the injuries on his body had also healed. If not for the fact that the ribs in his chest had been broken, it would have been extremely troublesome and time-consuming to recover.
"Luan Tian, my injuries are almost healed. I think I can leave now. These three days of healing have suffocated me!"Standing up and stretching his muscles, Li Mu lazily sent a sound transmission to Huntian.
Someone offered a hundred thousand crystal to reward you with a hundred thousand of live humans, even if it"s a dead man, it"s still worth thirty thousand crystal. If you go out now, not only will you encounter a few Goblin Beasts, once you get discovered, you won"t even be able to escape! I don"t agree with you. I think this place is pretty good. If it"s really no good, you can continue to stay here until you break through to the divine ability realm. "
Luan Tian did not quite agree with Li Mu"s decision to leave just like that, so he spoke out against it.
"What kind of joke is this? Breaking through to the Divine Abilities Realm?" Right now, I am still quite a distance away from the perfection-stage of the late Xiantian, so wouldn"t it be a little too early for me to break through to the supernatural realm? "
"What"s more, I promised the sect that I would take a trip to the Grand Mysterious Realm to try and break through. Li Mu curled his lips, a little unhappy.With your current situation, if you want to return to the Gold Jade Sect safely, I"ll tell you, it"ll be even more difficult. As for the time and resources, I think it won"t be a big deal for you, since you have tens of thousands of crystal with you, the Snow Spirit Breaking Realm Pill and the Scarlet Holy Water with you.
"As for that Grand Mysterious Realm trip, I don"t think it"s a big deal. That"s not a good place, you might not even be able to return!" After a moment of silence, Luan Tian said in a loud voice.
I already promised Sect Master and Master that they would give me three Heaven Ranked Martial Technique s for nothing, and I can"t do something like that without keeping any promises. Besides, if I treat you like this, you might be happy, but they treated us nicely and gave me the materials to recover your energy.
Li Mu"s att.i.tude was unyielding, and firmly rejected Luan Tian"s suggestion.
"Fine, but you have to listen to me for one thing. Your body is not fully recovered yet, so if you want to leave, you have to wait until after your body is fully recovered." Luan Tian replied with a serious tone after thinking for a while.
"Alright, I"ll do as you say, but hiding in this place is just too boring. With my injuries being healed by medicine and the Great Brahma Art at the same time, I"ll need at least seven to eight days to fully recover."
Li Mu said with a bitter face and a long sigh.
"What if you are really bored, you mentioned earlier, that out of the three Heaven Ranked Martial Technique s that Li Chengfeng gave you, you only have comprehended one of them, the Golden Geng Sword Qi and the Soul Drop Roar you have yet to start training in, furthermore you have only touched upon the threshold of the new Great Desolate Thunder Emperor"s fist, so you might as well take this opportunity to train properly, this will also be an increase in your own strength."Seeing Li Mu"s sullen face, he once again suggested muddleheaded.
"That"s right. If you didn"t say anything, I would have forgotten. I"ll start cultivating now!" Let"s start with the Golden Geng Sword Qi!Li Mu slapped his forehead, then sat down cross legged on the ground and started to cultivate the Golden Geng Sword Qi.
"Sharp golden energy, penetrating the universe, using the essence as its foundation, using the qi as the sword …"
"It"s the opposite!" How dare you publicly capture my Gold Jade Sect"s disciple with a bounty of one hundred thousand crystal! Check, check! "I would like to see what kind of blind force is the mastermind behind this!"
Inside the Great a.s.sembly Hall on the golden roof of the Gold Jade Sect, Li Chengfeng"s furious voice rang out. Other than Li Chengfeng who was seated on the throne of the sect master, there were also more than ten higher ups of the Gold Jade Sect who were seated below the Great a.s.sembly Hall. Amongst them, there were males and females, such as Chi Yun, Qin Yan, Ruan Qinghong and the others who were seated amongst them.
"No need for further investigation, I, Xiao Xiangzi, am in charge of intelligence on my Gold Jade Sect, and I am not someone who would give up for nothing. I have already sent people to investigate, and the person who placed this bounty on us is from the Ten Nations Merchant Union."Under Li Chengfeng"s fury, a man named Xiao Xiangzi, who sat at the head of the Tongxuan realm, spoke. This man who called herself Xiao Xiangzi did not look very old, around the age of twenty.
"What, the Ten Nations Merchant Union!?" The Ten Nations Business Alliance is one of the top five business alliances in the Yuheng Continent, it is said that it was founded by the ZhongTian Thunder Sect, one of the top ten sects of the Yuheng Continent, together with nine other great powers. Although those nine great powers are not as powerful as the ZhongTian Purple Thunder Sect, none of them are weaker than my Gold Jade Sect, how could they issue such a bounty order! "
Ruan Qinghong"s face was extremely ugly, she was extremely afraid of the Ten Nations Merchant Union.Furthermore, in the eyes of the other, my Gold Jade Sect is simply nothing. I am just a little curious, just what kind of person would give out such a big bounty for no reason, and for the sole purpose of doing so, it would be as if my Gold Jade Sect is a talented inner disciple. "
Chi Yun was more patient than Li Chengfeng. Because he was refining the Heaven Shaking Seal for Li Mu, he had not recovered his lost primeval essence, and his face was a little pale.
"I have a guess. Maybe Li Mu offended someone in the arena of the top ten sects not long ago, which is why he did such a thing at all costs!" Wan Tianming guessed.
"Impossible, the disciples of the top ten sects who partic.i.p.ated in the battle that day were all Innate realm experts, even if there were a few with extraordinary backgrounds, no one would have the ability to throw out one hundred thousand crystal, all so that they could catch Li Mu. One hundred thousand crystal, that is not ten pieces, even normal martial artist of the sacred art realm s would not be able to gather this astronomical number!"Ruan Qinghong shook her head and rejected Wan Tianming"s guess.
"That"s true. Junior sister Ruan"s words are reasonable, who would throw out a hundred thousand crystal for a mere junior at the Innate realm, hmm …" Guess, maybe it"s that Zhang Mengjiao, Thunder King Zhang Tianzheng"s descendant! "
Wan Tianming said again after patting his head."Thunder King Zhang Tianzheng! But I think the possibility is not high either. If the Thunder King wants to capture someone, he still needs to go to the Ten Nations Merchant Union to get a bounty, so he can personally do it. "
Some raised doubts, as they did not quite agree with Wan Tianming"s guess.
"Alright!" I don"t care who was behind this, but in short, this is a matter of challenging my Gold Jade Sect"s dignity, I want to send someone to the Heavenly Demon Valley to bring back Li Mu and the rest, who is willing to go? "Li Chengfeng"s voice was extremely mighty, his cold eyes swept across everyone present, his eyes filled with a fierce light.
"d.a.m.n, Li Mu is my disciple, I should be the one going this time!" Chi Yun said as he stood up.
"No, I see that Senior Brother Chi Yun"s face is pale, and the vitality in your body is extremely unstable. It should be because of some problem with your cultivation, but this little sister is untalented, and is willing to walk around for you, what do you think?"
Seeing Chi Yun taking the initiative to tame his and stand up, Ruan Qinghong immediately stood up and advised.
"Good!" Junior sister Ruan, you choose twenty of my Gold Jade Sect"s core disciples to go with you, and to the outside world, you have to say, for those above the sacred art realm, I do not care if they are Loose Pract.i.tioners or disciples of any other sect, but if they dare to attack my Gold Jade Sect Disciple without regard for their status, kill them without mercy! This calf, I, Li Chengfeng, am already determined to protect it!
"As for existences below the Innate Realm, I believe they could not do anything to Li Mu and the rest. Not to mention that my Gold Jade Sect did not give them the chance to bully the people, if they had the ability they could take the people themselves, this could also be considered as training for Li Mu and the rest!" Li Chengfeng said while sneering."I understand, I will set off now!"
Ruan Qinghong nodded at Li Chengfeng and Chi Yun, then transformed into a ray of green light and rushed out of the Great a.s.sembly Hall.
"Master, isn"t this making a big fuss out of nothing? It"s just a few disciples at the Xiantian realm, it"s worth the trouble for us to deal with them. I think it"s not worth it for a Tongxuan realm elder and a core disciple with twenty innate techniques!"After Ruan Qinghong left, a bald middle-aged man could not help but ask.
"Lu Xian, I don"t like hearing these words of yours, although Li Mu is just an inner disciple of my Gold Jade Sect, but this matter is not only related to his safety, it is also related to my Gold Jade Sect"s dignity, think about it, if someone were to offer a bounty on my Gold Jade Sect"s disciple, if my Gold Jade Sect doesn"t dare to stand up and speak, then in the future, who would be willing to join my Gold Jade Sect, furthermore, Li Mu is an exceptional genius, sooner or later, he will reach my level, I will definitely not give up!"
Li Chengfeng glared at the bald man, his expression unhappy."Alright!" You guys can go your separate ways. Junior Brother Chi Yun, you stay behind, I still have things to talk to you about. "
After the arrangements were made, Li Chengfeng ordered for everyone to leave, leaving Chi Yun behind.
"Senior Martial Brother, why did you make me stay? My Essence is greatly damaged, and I still need to go back and heal my wounds." After everyone had left, Chi Yun smiled bitterly."At the moment, there are no outsiders. Could it be that the Heartless Palace knew of his ident.i.ty and was secretly controlling this matter? " Li Chengfeng whispered.
"Heartless Palace? You and I have only just found out about Li Mu"s ident.i.ty, how could Heartless Palace know about it? Chi Yun shook his head, he did not quite agree with Li Chengfeng"s words.
"This won"t do. I keep feeling that this matter isn"t that simple. Who knows, I might have to personally make a trip here …"
