Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

The Earth Spirit Ship galloped through the air with lightning speed, and soon, it arrived at Crescent Island.

After Li Mu put away the Earth Spirit Ship, put down the Jade Ginseng King and others, he took Xiao Jin and Xiao Wa in a slight disguise, drove the spirit boat back to Ten Thousand Stars Island, and successfully arrived at Li's Treasure House!

"Master Li, where have you been? I was scared to death. I thought you were going to leave me and never come back!"

Seeing Li Mu, Xiao Jin and others returning safely, Xue'er couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, nervously pulled Li Mu's arm and said worriedly.

"Silly girl, why would I leave you if I were to leave? Don't think nonsense. Qingyue has just passed through the thunder tribulation. We are watching the ceremony and going to support." Li Mu smiled and patted Xue'er on the shoulder, smiling to comfort her.

"Yes! Brother Qingyue has successfully survived the seventh-level thunder tribulation. He can now transform into a shape, and his shape is so handsome!" Xiao Jin said sincerely with envy.

"Yeah!" Xiao Wa Weng responded angrily, with a look of envy in his eyes.

"Great! Brother Qingyue has successfully overcome the tribulation. With this powerful help, Mr. Li, you don't have to worry anymore!"

Xue'er's eyes lit up, she looked at Li Mu with joy, and asked with concern.

Hearing this, Li Mu was slightly startled, and he probably understood that Xue'er had learned about his worries during this period, and the little guy had been secretly worried!

Li Mu smiled freely and nodded affirmatively: "Indeed, Qingyue has successfully overcome the tribulation. I have a lot of peace of mind, and I have stronger strength guarantee. I can really relax a little and continue to open the business!"

Li Mu decided to continue to stay in the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars. If the Ji family really comes to visit, he will find a way to deal with it! Right now, it is crucial to improve your cultivation to the realm of divine transformation.

Soon, Li's Zhenbao Building reopened its store. Li Mu disguised himself as a spirit appraiser to guard the store. After about half a month, he went back to Crescent Island to take care of two Yin and Yang spiritual plants, and taught a few beast control, weapon refining, and talisman making. , refining alchemy, and making puppets.

Time flies by, and time flies by. In Li Mu's dedicated practice and busyness, time passes quietly, and three months pass in the blink of an eye.

Li's treasure house stands in the sea of ​​ten thousand stars. Its business is booming and its reputation is growing. Li Mu gradually lets go of his worries. He is very busy every day and lives a peaceful but fulfilling life.

However, these peaceful days are destined not to last long!

In the Southern Wilderness Territory at this time, the giant city standing in the Ten Thousand Monster Mountains was trampled underfoot by an army of countless blood-colored monsters. The brown-gold city wall collapsed, and countless buildings between the two giant spiritual mountain thoroughfares were bombed. The giant spirit cannons, giant long crossbows,... all kinds of powerful spiritual weapons were turned into scraps and scattered on the battlefield in disorder...

In the sky, the blood-colored demonic birds that cover the sky are surrounded by all kinds of giant spiritual ships, such as the fourth-order volleying spiritual ship, the fifth-order thunder spiritual ship, the fourth-order firework spiritual ship, the fifth-order giant spiritual ship, etc., etc., from all directions. , tens of thousands of human monks were defeated by countless blood-colored monsters.

…

A month passed.

In the Zhongzhou territory, in the old residence of the Ji family, one of the eight major cultivation families, in the solemn elders' hall, the head of the Ji family, Ji Zhantian, convened an emergency elders meeting with all the family elders. The atmosphere was solemn.

"Unfortunate news came from the Southern Wilderness battlefield. The Nine Demon Sect opened a gap in the Demon Abyss Passage and released the Demon Abyss creatures - the Blood Demon Clan. They controlled countless low-level demon clans, formed an army, and broke through the Demon Suppression City... .”

"Although the allied forces of Xuantian Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect resisted with all their strength, they were still unable to contain the combined forces of the Blood Demon Clan and the Demon Clan...!"

"The coalition forces suffered heavy losses on the front line of the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain and could no longer maintain it. They retreated to the second line of defense... Now that the first gap in the Demonic Abyss Passage has been opened, there will soon be a second gap. If it cannot be effective now, To prevent the situation from deteriorating further, the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Territory, and even the entire Zhongzhou Spiritual Territory, will be involved in this war!"

Ji Zhantian's face was gloomy, he looked around at the Ji family elders, and in a low voice he introduced the latest battle report from the front line. Every word was full of heaviness and worry.

"What is the current situation of the Taiyi Sect's coalition forces?"

"Master, what do you mean, our Ji family will send the main force into battle?"

"Is the current situation serious enough? Why haven't the Taoist Lords of Taiyi Sect come forward yet? What's their attitude?"

"..."

After hearing such severe information from Ji Zhantian, the expressions of all the elders changed drastically, and they all began to question nervously.

It's not that they don't understand the meaning of lips dying and teeth falling cold, but when their own interests and safety are involved, the elders of the Ji family are thinking about how to prevent themselves from taking this responsibility.

"We family heads have already had a talk with the two sect leaders of Xuantian Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect. The Dao Lords of the two sects have been restrained by matters in the outside world and have no way to go to the Southern Wilderness to solve the problem of the gap in the passage. Now, The coalition forces in the Southern Wilderness Territory are preparing to regroup in the Tianzhu Peak area, and the two Immortal Sects will continue to send their main forces there."

Ji Zhantian looked at the elders and continued to introduce.

The elders' eyes lit up slightly, but there must be arrangements for their eight major families. They looked at Ji Zhantian quietly and waited for the next step.

"If the gap in the Demonic Abyss Passage is allowed to enlarge, the seal of the entire Demonic Abyss Passage will eventually be completely released, and the consequences will be disastrous. In addition, if the force of the Nine Demons Sect does not exist, the gap in the Demonic Abyss Passage will not be enlarged to this extent." Ji Zhantian looked at the elders and continued to introduce.

After a pause, Ji Zhantian continued: "So, the two sect masters asked our eight major families to form an elite force, either to stab the Nine Demon Sect's lair and beat them painfully and cripple them, or to send the main force to the Demon Abyss At the passage, attack the Blood Demon clan and completely seal the gap! There are two key tasks, you need to choose one."

Hearing this, the expressions of all the elders of the Ji family changed drastically.

"Can't the two of them do it on their own? Are they asking us to die?"

"Yes! After participating in these two missions, do you still have a chance to survive? This is a life of narrow escape!"

"Xuantian Sword Sect, is Taiyi Sect so excessive?"

"Head of the family, you didn't agree! What did the other seven heads of the family say?"

…

As soon as Ji Zhantian finished speaking, the elders of the Ji family started talking, and they all showed frightened expressions. They were all highly cultivated and had lived for thousands of years. They were especially afraid of death, especially when they had to carry out such a mission of almost death. , making them even more frightened.

Ji Zhantian was not surprised by the violent reaction of the elders. He had expected this scene and sat in the position of the head of the family with a sad expression and sighed silently.

The Ji family has been passed down for too long, and the monument that stood on the Ji family's ancestors gradually became decayed, and the entire family no longer had the same bravery as before.

"There is no way to refuse this matter. The eight major families jointly dispatched part of the main force to complete a task. We will choose the task first, and the other task will be solved by the two immortal sects together. This is the result of joint discussion at the conference. If If that family is unwilling to send the main force, it is no longer worthy of enjoying the status and benefits of the eight major families." Ji Zhantian looked at the group of elders of the Ji family who reacted fiercely and said in a deep voice.

As soon as Ji Zhantian finished speaking, the fierce opposition suddenly stopped. All the elders looked embarrassed, but no one spoke up to object for a while. They all knew that this was the result of joint discussions between the eight major families and the two major immortal sects, and they could not refuse. .

"Master, our Ji family really cannot sit back and watch this crisis." Ji Hongyun, the fifth elder of the Ji family, was the first to speak: "I support sending the main force to the Demon Abyss Passage to raid the Blood Demon Clan and try to seal the gap."

"How big is that gap? How many elites have come from the Blood Demon Clan? We don't know anything. I suggest you carry out the first mission and go straight to the headquarters of the Nine Demons Sect!" Ji Wuheng, the third elder of the Ji family, strongly refuted.

"No, no! The blood demon clan has just arrived in this realm, and their strength must have declined. On the other hand, the Nine Demon Sect has existed in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm for thousands of years. How can it be easy to break into the carefully built demon cave!" Ji Family Six Elder Ji Tianlin heard this and spoke hurriedly. Compared to the insidious and cunning demon cultivators of the Nine Demons Sect, he was more willing to deal with the blood demons in the outside world.

…

The elders had different attitudes and exchanged opinions. They had heated discussions and could not reach a decision for a long time.

"No need to argue! This matter will be voted on by a show of hands. After the vote here, we will wait for the eight masters to meet and continue to vote by vote. You just need to be ready for battle. This vote also determines the choice of the main personnel. !" Ji Zhantian looked at the elders and signaled.

"Master, can you make it clearer?" Ji Hongyun, the fifth elder of the Ji family, asked quickly.

All the elders Ji looked at Ji Zhantian with concern.

"For the sake of fairness, the mission you choose is the same as the final decision of our eight masters. Then the main force will be selected from this group. If there are insufficient or too many people, we will continue to draw lots and make your choice." Ji Zhantian He looked at the elders and announced.

After a pause, Ji Zhantian looked at everyone and said quietly: "No matter how you choose, the direct lineage of the Ji family will send people to join this army. No one can live their whole life lying on the family's merit book!"

Hearing this, the faces of several elders turned slightly red, feeling ashamed of their greed for life and fear of death.

Soon, the elders of the Ji family held a show of hands vote, and they were almost evenly divided on the two narrow-death tasks. However, counting Ji Zhantian's vote, the Ji family finally chose to block the Demonic Abyss passage.

After the important vote was over, the family meeting was about to come to an end. At this moment, Ji Wuheng, the third elder of the Ji family, suddenly spoke up and asked Ji Zhantian: "Master, do you remember what happened to the Nascent Soul monk last time - 'Li Jianxian'? ?”

"Monk Nascent Soul! Li Jianxian? Who?"

Several years have passed. During this time, he has been worried about the war in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm and worried about the Moyuan. Ji Zhantian has completely forgotten about a mere Nascent Soul monk.

"It's the Nascent Soul cultivator who killed Kumu, the one who sent Master Tianji to Fa Biao!" Ji Wuheng had already expected this and reminded him.

Ji Zhantian suddenly remembered that he had been having a headache about this guy for a while!

"Isn't this guy hiding his head and showing his tail all the time? There are no clues! Why, he popped out again?" Ji Zhantian asked in surprise.

"This is his latest information. I just got it from Tianji Pavilion. Master, please take a look at it first!" Ji Wuheng sighed, took out a jade slip and handed it to Ji Zhantian.

Ji Zhantian took it easily, immersed himself in his consciousness, and started browsing.

After reading the information on the jade slips, Ji Zhantian was silent for a moment. He had to say that this Nascent Soul boy did something that surprised him again. He recognized the seventh-level true dragon as its master and defeated the White Whale Demon King. Everything was his Yuan Ying. In the infant stage, no, even in the realm of transformation into gods, there are things that cannot be accomplished. Even the geniuses of the two major immortal sects, Xuantian Sword Sect and Taiyi Sect cannot compete with them.

"Right now, in troubled times, our Ji family cannot afford to offend such evil geniuses. Isn't he in the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars? Send someone to find him, put an end to the dead wood matter with him, make a good relationship, and don't cause any other troubles. ." Ji Zhantian threw the jade slip back to Ji Wuheng, sighed and signaled.

"clear!"

Ji Wuheng accepted the jade slip and couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. After seeing this information, he and the head of the family thought together.

"Well! In the coming war, the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Stars will probably become a strategic location for the Central Continent Spiritual Realm to attack the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm. Why don't you go there yourself and find a suitable island for the Ji family to base themselves on? Let's settle this matter by the way." Ji Zhantian thought of something and looked at Ji Wuheng and ordered.

"Okay, Patriarch!" Ji Wuheng accepted the order happily.

…

The Kun family is one of the eight major cultivation families in Zhongzhou.

Master Tianshang and Master Kunling were sitting opposite each other, having a drink with each other.

"If I had known it earlier, I should have followed Li Xiaoyou's example and traveled everywhere. I shouldn't have gone back to Kun's house or to the master's house in Central Continent. We are familiar with the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm and know the Nine Demons Sect thoroughly. It's nothing more than letting you and me do that. A desperate mission!"

Master Kunling poured a pot of spiritual wine into his mouth and said to Master Tianshang angrily.

"Forget it! What the head of the family said is not unreasonable. If we send others to the Southern Wilderness, they will not be familiar with the place and will not be able to carry out the task. Instead, let us lead the way. Maybe there is a possibility of success!" Lord Tianshang smiled bitterly. Next, he comforted me.

"Ha! Have you been to the headquarters of the Nine Demons Sect? Have you been to the Demonic Abyss Passage? Can you believe such excuses?" Lord Kunling glared at Lord Tianshang and asked angrily.

"This mission is just for you and me. For the sake of our efforts, the master will not embarrass you and my family again. This is Zhongzhou. If we don't accept this mission, in this day of being dependent on others, we can't. Not as relaxed and comfortable as the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm!" Tian Shangzun glanced at Kun Ling and said with a somewhat helpless expression.

Hearing this, Kun Lingzun was speechless immediately and took a few more sips of spiritual wine to vent his depression.

After this time, Master Kun Ling has completely seen through the family's interest disputes. If he can survive this mission, he will never stay in a place like Kun's family again!

In this meeting of Kun family heads, the head family and several family elders put pressure on them with various righteousness and family interests. Lord Tianshang and Lord Kun Ling were unable to resist in this family meeting. , was forced to accept the mission of returning to the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm to perform a narrow escape.

…

At this time, in the Zhongzhou Spiritual Territory, the eight major cultivation families and the two major Immortal Sects were undercurrents, and they were all mobilizing the cutting-edge combat power of human monks to support the war in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Territory. (End of chapter)
