Chapter 435 - Heaven has nowhere to go
"Sigh!" This Lu Xiong looked extremely arrogant, his strength was only this much! I thought it was really powerful, really! ""Who knows how powerful the disciples of Xiao Yao Sect are. Who knows how easily they were defeated by Gold Jade Sect, that brat!"
"Truly interesting, the cultivation of the late-stage divine ability is actually carried like a dead dog by a pract.i.tioner of the Early Divine Realm. No wonder his Dao-companion was s.n.a.t.c.hed away by someone, and he gained a cultivation of the late-stage divine ability for nothing!"
"Yeah, if I were the girl from the Shen family, even if she was blind, she would still pick on Li Mu, not to mention the fact that he is one of the Master Heir s, his Early Divine Realm has such a sacred art, able to cross two small realms to fight against enemies.
Looking at Lu Xiong whose defeat was already obvious, many people in the plaza started to discuss and give pointers, and these people did not all choose to stab him, Lu Family, on purpose. Some people did speak based on what they knew, and these words, when heard by the people of the Lu Family and Xiao Yao Sect, were ear-piercing, especially Lu Xiong"s father Lu Da, who was so ashamed that he wished he could find a hole and hide in it.
Compared to the extremely ashamed Lu Da, and looking at the Shen Family"s Patriarch Shen Ling, his face was already no longer as ugly as before, and the plan in his mind was already set. This Li Mu was clearly far more outstanding than Lu Xiong, and from the looks of it, if Shen Cai Qing were to choose Li Mu as his dual cultivation companion, it would be even better for his Shen family, since Li Mu was still the Master Heir"s Master Heir, and this Lu Xiong, although his cultivation was not bad, he was only a disciple of Xiao Yao Sect.
Furthermore, the key point was that Li Mu"s Early Divine Realm was already stronger than Lu Xiong"s, if he was already at late-stage divine ability, then what would happen, thus although he did not reveal anything on the surface, he was secretly excited inside. Not knowing why, he found Li Mu a lot more pleasing to the eye, not just Shen Ling, even the Great Clan Elder Shen Jun was also like this, they were all old foxes that had mixed into the cultivation world for many years, how could they not understand?
"Admit defeat!"
Li Mu purposely controlled the dragon claw hand to increase its power, and at the same time, shouted at Lu Xiong."It"s impossible for me to admit defeat! Li Mu! If I, Lu Xiong do not kill you, I swear I will not be a human! "
As Li Mu used more strength, Lu Xiong"s screams became more shrill. He continuously struggled, trying to break free from Li Mu"s dragon claws, but no matter how hard he struggled, he was still unable to struggle free. Instead, he was feeling more and more pain.
"You want to kill me with this? What a joke, get off the stage! "
Lu Xiong roared coldly, and then, he controlled the dragon claw hand to fiercely swing toward the ground below him. Like a shooting star, Lu Xiong smashed into the ground, forming a huge human shaped hole, and Lu Xiong coincidentally fell face first onto the ground, half of his face was completely distorted. If he did not cultivate to the late-stage divine ability, his body"s strength would not be comparable to that of an ordinary person"s, and with Li Mu"s swinging, he had to break his bones to make him into mincemeat. However, Lu Xiong did not know how many places he would feel, but he was like a pile of mud, and he actually did not move.
Following Lu Xiong"s death from unconsciousness, this battle which seemed to have a huge disparity in strength, finally won with the seemingly weak Li Mu. This made the few Gold Jade Sect Disciple s that Ruan Qinghong brought along, as well as Xiao Kuan and a few others grin from ear to ear.If one were to say who was the most proud of Li Mu, it would naturally be Shen Cai Qing. With Li Mu"s victory, she could be considered to have completely gotten rid of Lu Xiong, and could be considered to have regained his freedom.
This kind of profoundness caused her to feel a kind of palpitation in her heart. Even she did not know why she would have such feelings towards Li Mu, but she only knew that from today onwards, the news of Li Mu winning against Lu Family"s Xiao Sect Master, Xiao Yao, would spread to the cultivation world in the northern part of the Yuheng Continent.
Everyone would know that although Shen Cai Qing and Li Mu didn"t have the t.i.tle of dao companion, they did. Even she, Li Mu and even Xiao Kuan knew that this was an elaborate scam, but she was still very happy.
"Alright!" The battle is over, although I am extremely unwilling to believe it, the truth has already been presented in front of everyone, so I declare that Li Mu has won! "Following Lu Xiong"s defeat, Shen Ling deliberately put on a rueful look. He retracted the hand seal, and the purple colored True Essence barrier that he had set up slowly faded away. However, just as the purple colored True Essence barrier was about to disappear, a blinding white light suddenly lit up in the air above Shen Mansion.
As the white light of the True Essence lit up, a semi-circle true essence light shield appeared in the air suddenly, like a crystal, and enveloped the entire Shen Mansion within it.
"What"s going on!"Seeing the sudden change in the sky, everyone in Shen Mansion was shocked. Before they could react, more than eighty figures wearing sand masks and figures suddenly appeared in the air above Shen Mansion.
All of these eighty odd figures were controlling their Escape Light, and it was clear that they were all at least in the Divine Arts realm, especially the five leading them, who were emitting powerful auras that surpa.s.sed the Divine Arts realm. They were actually all in the Tongxuan realm realm.It was obvious that he was an old man, two of them were in the middle stage of the Nascent Profound Realm, one was wearing a yellow robe, and the other was wearing a green robe. Because they were wearing an ice sand mask, their true appearance could not be seen, but from the looks of their bodies, it was obvious that they were a woman and a man.
"I wonder which dao friend it is, since you came to my Shen family, why do you not dare to reveal your true appearance, and even laid down a barrier that sealed my entire Shen Mansion, are you planning to start a war with my Shen family?"
Many people knew that today was a good day for his Shen family"s Duo Cultivation Ceremony, so he subconsciously thought that these people were here for the Shen family to cause trouble."I am not here for your Shen family, to put it bluntly, your Shen family does not have that much face, we are here for just one person, that is a brat called Li Mu in Gold Jade Sect. If you do not want to die, then step aside, otherwise you will suffer the consequences!"
He did not move from his position in the air, but as he did so, the expressions of everyone in the Shen family plaza changed. Their fear of the elderly man rose to a terrifying level, and only Ren Quan from the Xiao Yao Sect and the purple-robed youth beside him, did not have much fear towards the elderly man."Fellow Daoist, just who are you, to create such a grand scene, for the sake of a disciple with Early Divine Realm in my Gold Jade Sect, forget about whether or not you have the ability, even if you do, you are probably making a big fuss out of nothing. This is the Qin Nation, are you openly thinking of fighting with my Gold Jade Sect!"
Seeing that the group of uninvited guests were actually all rushing towards Li Mu, Ruan Qinghong first took a glance at Li Mu who was still standing not far away among a pile of jade fragments, and seeing that Li Mu also had a face full of suspicion, she immediately stood up and walked to the center of the plaza, then spoke to the hunchbacked elder in mid air. His words were filled with a domineering aura, and he brought out all of the Gold Jade Sect s.
"Gold Jade Sect? Hahaha, Gold Jade Sect might still be considered a part of the Qin Nation, but in the entire Yuheng Continent, if you look at the entire Beidou World, then that means that it is a second-rate power. What is there to be proud of?
With a flash of grey light, the stooped old man appeared inside the crystal light barrier. After he appeared, he shouted to the cultivators below, and the powerful True essence pressure surged out from his body, instantly enveloping the entire plaza, causing the few hundred people in the plaza to become quiet, some of them were weak, their backgrounds were not too strong, and they actually started to retreat towards the two sides of the plaza. It was clear that they did not want to get involved in this matter.
"I want to see who dares! I don"t care which sect or power he belongs to. After this matter is over, the power he belongs to and his own people no longer need to exist in the Qin Nation"s cultivation world. What I, Ruan Qinghong, am saying is speaking on behalf of the Gold Jade Sect! "
Seeing that many people had the intention to retreat, Ruan Qinghong instigated her spirit sense and bellowed, the threatening intent in her words could not be more obvious."Hahaha, what big words you have there, you are merely in the middle stage of the Nascent Profound Realm, I thought that some True King Stage expert would come, today I am going to take Li Mu away in front of you, I want to see what you can do!"
The hunchbacked old man sneered, then with a flash of gray light, he directly landed on the plaza below him, then leisurely walked towards Li Mu.
"Where did this group of people that do not care for their lives actually dare to attack me in this situation? Their lineup is not small, but even if you are an expert in later stage of Tongxuan, you must at least be faster than my river crossing step!"
Looking at the grey robed elder who was approaching him step by step, Li Mu muttered in his heart. Then, with a flash of golden light, he activated the river crossing step and disappeared.
"Bam!"
Following Li Mu"s disappearance, a dark golden light flashed in a certain direction in the sky, followed by a m.u.f.fled sound. Li Mu"s head collided with the crystal light barrier, and was actually rebounded back by the true essence ripples produced by the crystal light barrier."Brat, don"t waste your time. This barrier was created using a Ruler Armament, even Tongxuan realm experts wouldn"t be able to break it in a short amount of time, let alone a small fry like you.
Seeing that Li Mu wanted to take the chance and slip away, the middle stage Spirit Opening expert in yellow robes sneered, and then she raised her hand and grabbed at Li Mu who was inside the crystal light barrier. A giant yellow hand formed from True Essence suddenly formed and grabbed towards Li Mu, as if trying to capture him alive.
"G.o.d dammit, his cultivation base is at the intermediate stage of the Divine Abilities!"
Li Mu"s spiritual consciousness was extremely strong, so with a casual sweep, he was able to determine the cultivation level of the person who attacked. Even though he was arrogant, he was not arrogant enough to be able to forcefully block a middle stage profound pract.i.tioner"s attack.
Looking at the formidable formation in the enemy"s hands, Li Mu"s heart tightened. He knew that without any special circ.u.mstances today, it would be difficult for him to escape, because he wouldn"t be able to escape from this world if he saw the situation in front of him.
