Chapter 436 He Is a Master
“Who is it?”
“You’re courting death.”
The short man and the woman also reacted immediately. They were so angry since they risked their lives to fight here, but unexpectedly, a man came out halfway to get it.
They soon had a tacit understanding and attacked Li Mu at the same time.
In the core area of the tomb area, because of the Grand Devil-suppressing Formation, everyone’s cultivation was suppressed. Basically, they could only rely on close combat. The short man moved like black mist in the path of an a.s.sa.s.sin, while the black-clad woman used her double twisted knives to attack forcefully in the style of close combat.
However, no matter what path they took, they would be defeated by Li Mu’s iron fists.
Under the suppression of the Grand Devil-subduing Formation, Li Mu’s physical strength and close-combat power became so horrible that with one punch, he simply beat the short man and the woman to fly backward.
Then, Li Mu pulled out the stone pestle from the jade plate and held it in his hand.
“Dammit.” The short man flew backward more than 10 meters, crashed into a stone pillar, and slipped down with much anger as he spat out blood and glared at Li Mu.
“Who are you?” The woman held the knives in a strange attacking posture. However, her trembling wrists indicated that she was seriously injured by Li Mu’s punch just now.
Li Mu looked at the stone pestle up and down with a smile.
With a delicate white texture and round edgeless shape, it looked like a pestle used by countryside women to hold rice, but it was very heavy, which weighed about 100,000 kilograms, and was obviously made of special materials. In addition, there were mysterious Taoist magic formation lines and spiritual meaning in the stone pestle. Whether in terms of material or array lines, it was far beyond the weapons and armors that he had picked up in the ruins before.
It was really a treasure.
Li Mu gave a look of appreciation to the two men.
“Very good. They didn’t lie to me.”
“Who the h.e.l.l are you?” the short man asked with a fierce look.
At this time, Li Mu was covered with fragments of armor and wore a black iron helmet, in an exaggerated and strange style. He didn’t look like the protagonist at all, but a total loser. Therefore, neither the short man of the Flowing Shadow Sect nor the woman could figure it out.
Li Mu smiled and said to the hook-nosed man, “Tell them who I am.”
The hook-nosed man thought for a moment and said hesitantly, “He is a master.”
The short man and the girl in the black dress: “? ? ?”
They both felt like they were being molested. They could not wait to squeeze the man to death.
Who didn’t know that this guy was a master?
If he wasn’t a master, how could he send them flying with a single punch?
“We’re asking about his origin and name.”
“You’re a member of the Hunyuan Sect, right? Fine, the Heart-killing Pestle belongs to you guys. But I will remember this. The Killing Tower will definitely not forget this shame,” the woman said through gnas.h.i.+ng teeth.
She recognized the symbol on the robes of those four. After a while, she realized that she could not take back the Heart-killing Pestle from this “Master”, so she made a prompt decision and immediately retreated.
Before she left, she glared at Li Mu as if trying to firmly remember Li Mu’s appearance.
The short man was unwilling to give up but he had no choice. He laughed sinisterly and said, “Hehe, all right, your Hunyuan Sect is brave. How dare you s.n.a.t.c.h food from a tiger’s mouth? Hehe, take good care of that divine pestle. I hope that all of you will have the chance to use it.”
As he said this, he began to step back.
“Hoho, how could our Hunyuan Sect be afraid of you?” Li Mu sneered in the direction where the two people left. “If you have bravery, after this, you can take people to deal with it. Let’s see if I can beat you to pieces at that time.”
“You are brave.”
“I’ll keep those words in mind.”
Resentful voices came from outside the hall and then drifted away.
The disciples felt desperate on the contrary.
They were so unlucky.
As an a.s.sa.s.sin sect, the Flowing Shadow Sect was powerful, while the Black Killing Tower was also an organization of a.s.sa.s.sins, who both were notorious in the Brilliance Immortal Galaxy, and were difficult to deal with. Even the Hunyuan Sect was also afraid of these two sects.
This was definitely a piece of being-wronged trouble.
If they really got the Heart-striking Pestle, it would be fine, but the problem was that it was these two crazy men who got it, while in the end, the Hunyuan Sect would have to pay the price. How could they deal with it?
“It turns out that this thing is called the Heart-attacking Pestle. It sounds grand.” Li Mu looked around for a while, and tried to feel the Taoist lines and tactical deployment inside it, only to find that it was too profound to be understood in a short time.
He didn’t waste any more time and immediately used his spiritual energy to refine it.
The next moment, there was a wonderful connection between Li Mu and the stone pestle. With a stir of his mind, the stone pestle turned into a stream of light, disappeared in Li Mu’s hands, and entered his Mud-pill Palace for cultivation.
“Let’s go. Hurry up and go get treasures.”
Li Mu and Guo Yuqing looked at each other and became excited.
The Divine Tomb was really a good place.
There were treasures everywhere, and they could be used as soon as they were picked up. It was perfect.
At this moment, Li Mu suddenly remembered that before he left Earth, there was a very popular game on Earth, “At the End of the World”, in which the player on a deserted island would find guns, bulletproof vests, and weapons in the ruins of all kinds of houses, and then rush out to kill others. The one who survived in the end could eat chicken…
Well, why did Li Mu feel the compet.i.tion for the treasures in this holy tomb was like the real version of Dota?
“Haha, lucky dogs, we’re going to get treasures this time,” Li Mu exclaimed.
The four disciples looked at Li Mu as if he was a fool.
“How did he end up eating chicken?”
“If you want to eat chicken, you can go out. Why did you go to the Divine Tomb to do harm to others? It doesn’t matter even if you go to the Divine Tomb to eat chicken.”
In the Cloud Palace, there were no other treasures but the Heart-striking Pestle. The jade plate for the stone pestle seemed to be of extraordinary quality, so Guo Yuqing got it immediately.
The four disciples obtained nothing but sadness.
The six men continued forward.
After walking for a while, Li Mu found that not all the palaces were open. On the way, they saw six holy halls, including the Hall of Heavenly Skills, the Hall of Thunder and Rain, the Hall of Constellations, and so on, but they were all closed.
At the entrance of every hall, there were Taoist seals on a black stone door, which could not be pushed open at all by force. If they forcibly attacked, they would be hurt by the rebound force.
Along the way, the four happily explained some secrets to Li Mu and Guo Yuqing.
As members of an extraterrestrial sect, they knew much more information than Li Mu and Zhou Wu did. They had a lot of reference materials.
“There are hundreds of temples here, and each temple has a relic of a deceased G.o.d of War, which is equivalent to their tomb. Sometimes it will open, sometimes it will close. There is no rule, so you can only try,” the hook-nosed man explained.
The unibrowed man added, “An expert from Brilliance Immortal Galaxy has calculated that the number of the Divine Halls that will open this time will be the largest with the most treasures to strive for. That’s why all the major sects will pay all costs to send down their disciples to fight for the Divine Halls.”
“Why don’t you have the elders and experts of your sect come down?” Li Mu looked at them and said with disdain, “What can you do here? You just court death here.”
The four were really blown away.
“When we were in the sect, we were also the geniuses who were favored by our teachers and envied by our peers. We were also a little famous in Brilliance Immortal Galaxy. There were countless female cultivators who wanted to be our Taoist companions. Are we weak?”
“The barrier of the Divine Way on this planet has not completely dissipated. If the elders descend, they will be punished by the heavens and bring about bad luck. It will be difficult for them to protect themselves,” the hook-nosed eagle replied honestly.
Li Mu’s eyes lit up, and he said, “So, those who come down are disciples of all the major sects? Then I can fight against 10 people at a time, and when I meet them later, I can go up to fight against them directly. I’ll beat them with my fists and hammer them to the ground. All the treasures will be ours.”
Guo Yuqing was also excited.
The tall, thin disciple stammered, “There are also some sects with profound foundations using their secret treasures to remove the supporters of the elders and experts in the sect and forcefully suppressing their cultivation so that they came here as the protectors of Taoism. They are very powerful.”
As soon as he said that, he regretted it.
“Why the h.e.l.l did I say that? There’s no need to mention this at all. Wouldn’t it be a relief if these two lunatics were to go up to fight against the future leaders and masters of Heaven Devil Sect and the Heaven One Palace and be killed by them?”
The other three Hunyuan Sect disciples also looked at him with resentful gazes.
Li Mu understood and said, “Don’t hold back anything. If I were killed by someone, the Taoist incantations in your bodies would not be removed and you would die sooner or later.”
The four people immediately looked upset.
An hour later, they came to the outside of a grand hall called the Sky Star Palace. The door was open, but when they rushed in happily, they found that there were traces of a battle that had just ended, and there were no figures and no treasure…
“They have been taken away by others.” Li Mu nodded sadly and said, “My treasures have been taken away.”
The eagle-nosed man and others were speechless at that time.
“The treasures here are all ownerless. Only the destined ones can have them. When did they become yours?”
Another hour pa.s.sed.
There was a graveyard hall called the Fairy Palace in front of them. As the door opened, there was a battle inside among many people.
Li Mu winked at him.
Guo Yuqing understood.
Both of them held their breath and sneaked in.
The four found the two masters had a tacit understanding. It was obvious that they were going to sneak in to kill others. With such familiar demeanors, they must have done this kind of thing many times before.
Two tricky men.
So the four of them also secretly hid their breath and followed up.
In the main hall, the battle was very fierce.
