Emperor of the North

"Brother Murong, I"ve made you wait for a long time. My injuries have almost fully healed.

"I"m about there, I"m going to find a place to close up and try to break through to the Divine Arts realm. I always said it would be much easier to break through inside the Grand Mysterious Realm, so I didn"t want to waste such a good opportunity. So I specially came to greet Brother Li." Murong Baili explained with a smile.

Since that"s the case, then let"s part ways. But before I leave, there is something I want to ask, I hope Brother Murong isn"t stingy in giving me pointers. "

Li Mu"s eyes flashed, and laughed a little embarra.s.sedly.

"Don"t worry Brother Murong, what I want to ask is a rather private matter, it is not a joke to say that I am not afraid of you, Brother Murong. Last time, I met Fellow Daoist Leng Qingcheng in my Gold Jade Sect, although Fellow Daoist Leng was not good with words, his temperament and appearance were deeply engraved in my memory, this time, when the ten great sects all gathered in the Taixuan Valley, I did not see Fellow Daoist Leng Qingcheng, why is that so?"

Li Mu revealed an embarra.s.sed smile, and said while parrying with an embarra.s.sed tone.

Brother Li, if you were to ask me about other things, I might not know, but you asked me why she did not come to Taixuan Valley this time, I know a little about it, because it is no longer a secret in My Snow Spirit Sect, she has already gone into closed door cultivation, and it is said that she will not come out until she reaches the late-stage divine ability realm. Murong Baili explained.

"He went into closed door cultivation? I still have to go into seclusion until late-stage divine ability! "This is quite a pity. Why would such a beauty spend all her time in seclusion? Isn"t she afraid of turning into a yellow-faced woman?" Li Mu muttered to himself. Although his words were soft, it did not escape Murong Baili"s ears.

Murong Baili let out a long sigh, his tone seemed to be somewhat aggrieved.

Li Mu"s face was gloomy and cold. Leng Qingcheng was already a Dao companion in his heart, but hearing that someone dared to scheme against him, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart.

"Ten Thousand Swords Sect originally came here with the intention to form an alliance with the My Snow Spirit Sect, and My Snow Spirit Sect"s Sect Master Yi Ruochen also wanted to form an alliance with them, so there"s nothing much to say. He even suggested that Junior Sister Leng Qingcheng and Wan Jiansan become cultivation companions, and that they could use the method of marriage to form an alliance."

Murong Baili shook his head with emotion, as if he was extremely disgusted with this so-called alliance.

"Marriage alliance? This was a good way to further consolidate the relationship between the two sects and to try to increase the distribution of benefits. What was the result? With my understanding of your esteemed sect"s Fellow Daoist Leng Qingcheng, she definitely would not accept this. "

Murong Baili looked at Li Mu for a bit more, then nodded: "I never expected Brother Li to be so understanding of Junior Leng, not bad, Junior Leng may not talk much normally, but her personality is extremely strong, she immediately rejected the marriage."

Hence, she reached an agreement with Wan Jiansan. Ten years later, she would set up a stage in the Xueling Sect, and if one wanted to fight a match for the bride, one could choose a dual cultivation companion for themselves. As long as one"s bones are below forty years of age, they could partic.i.p.ate, and with that, they could block the mouth of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the higher ups of the My Snow Spirit Sect.

Li Mu heard but did not speak. In his mind, he immediately understood Leng Qingcheng"s intentions, he was sending a message to himself, and was forced to buy ten years of time, which he could understand by saying that he had won it for Li Mu. Otherwise, he wouldn"t have been able to request for the partic.i.p.ation of everyone whose age did not exceed forty.

"I got it, thank you Brother Murong for telling me, and then we will part ways here, I hope we can meet again in the future if fate wills it!"

Li Mu woke up from his stupor. After exchanging a few courteous words with Murong Baili, he rode on the light and flew into the distant horizon, quickly disappearing from Murong Baili"s line of sight.

Looking at Li Mu who had disappeared at the end of the horizon, Murong Baili let out a long sigh.

"Ten years! According to Murong Baili, two years had already pa.s.sed by today. That meant there were still eight years left, Ten Thousand Swords Sect … It just so happens that I have to settle new accounts together! "

Both the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the Heartless Palace, these two super sects of the Yuheng Continent s, had deep grudges and resentment against him that he was unable to resolve. It was only a matter of time before he would become enemies with the other party, but Li Mu had never thought that he would become enemies with the other party because of Leng Qingcheng.

After flying for a while, Li Mu took out a map from his storage ring. On the map, there was a conspicuous red circle marked with the words" Piao Xiang Peak ".

"Before I entered the Grand Mysterious Realm, Vice Sect Leader Qin Yan specifically instructed this Floating Fragrance Peak to have a treasure called the Bone-washing flower. It is said that it is extremely valuable for body pract.i.tioners, and it is said that after consuming one Bone-washing flower, you will be reborn once, so the effect on the strength of the body is evident. I don"t have any goal, so I might as well go there and try my luck!"

"Boom!"

A m.u.f.fled explosion resounded in a hidden canyon within the Demonic Corpse Forest. A large area of mountain rocks and earth fell down the canyon. Many trees were split into two halves and the scene was a mess.

Within this relatively hidden canyon, thirty monks surrounded a seven to eight meter long strange bird. The strange bird was covered in black fur, had a pair of sharp claws, sharp bird pecks, and a pair of large wings.

The seven or eight meter long strange bird looked extremely terrifying, but it was covered in an aura of death. Its body was rotten flesh, and its body emitted a terrible stench; if it didn"t have the ability to move, its eyes would still emit a dark green primordial spirit fire. One would think that this was a carrion vulture that had been dead for many years.

"Martial Uncle, this demon beast"s strength is too terrifying. I can see that it is almost at the level of a rank 4 demon beast. What should we do now? We have lost another two disciples!"

"This is a Corpse Eagle, it seems to have been corroded by the Corpse Monster fog and turned into a demon corpse that only knows how to kill. Everyone, don"t panic, form the Arhat Devil Extinguishing Formation!"

Looking at the strange demon corpse bird in front of him, Xuan Du"s face grew stern. He waved his hand at the group of Yunhai Temple disciples, and out of the thirty odd disciples, eighteen of them walked out quickly.

After the eighteen Yunhai Temple disciples walked out, they formed seals with their hands and spat out their own Yuan Pills at the same time. In an instant, all eighteen golden Yuan Pills flew into the air and formed a halo of light on the Golden Buddhist Light.

"Chirp!"

Surrounded by the eighteen golden Arhat"s phantoms, the Corpse Monster opened its mouth and let out a roar. A large amount of black devilish fire was spat out from its mouth.
