Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

Soon, Sword Master Feng and Sword Master Chen took action quickly. Led by Xuantian Sword Sect, they raised their arms and called out urgently, gathering elite monks from various sects in Zhongzhou, as well as the power of the eight major families in Zhongzhou. Under their call, a fleet of unprecedented scale was formed The formation was quickly completed, and the momentum was like a rainbow, ready to set sail and head straight to the sea of ​​​​the underworld.

In this expedition, their goal is not only to annihilate the Immortal Demon Lord in the Nether Water Sea and prevent his conspiracy to break the water seal, but they also plan to take advantage of the situation to counterattack the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain and prepare to expel the forces of the Demonic Abyss in one go. boundary.

Li Mu was happy to see this matter come to fruition, and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the refining of high-level spiritual weapons, seventh-level Taoist soldiers, and the fierce battle that the frontline monks were about to face. He could not go to the battlefield himself, so he could only do his best in this way for They strengthened their combat power and expressed their support for the monks with practical actions.

Li Mu is also full of expectations for the upcoming battle, hoping that Sword Master Feng and the others can take this opportunity to turn the tide of the battle in one fell swoop.

The water seal in the Nether Water Sea and the fire seal in the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Realm. These two extreme spiritual lands are occupied by the Moyuan forces. To take them back, Li Mu's follow-up plan to plant seven kinds of high-level spiritual plants can Goes smoothly.

After three months of careful preparation, the demon-defeating fleet finally set off. As the fleet sailed out of the port in an orderly manner, the sea was sparkling, reflecting the majestic figure of the galloping fleet. The flags fluttered in the sea breeze, like giant strips. The dragon meandered forward in a majestic way, flying thousands of miles away in the blink of an eye.

At this time, in the Qixuan Sect, Li Mu was still busy in the weapon refining room. The fire illuminated his focused face. He was concentrating on refining the weapon. Qin Wentong's sudden visit broke the tranquility.

"Sect Master Li, the demon-killing fleet has been dispatched." After Li Mu finished refining the weapon, Qin Wentong reported with a solemn expression.

Li Mu nodded and put away the newly minted spiritual weapon, a complex look flashed in his eyes.

"Are you leaving... I hope Elder Fang and the others can return triumphantly." Li Mu suddenly realized this and murmured to himself expectantly.

Xuantian Sword Sect mobilized its army this time, and Qixuan Sect, as a subordinate sect, was naturally bound to do so. Sect masters such as Fang Shixin, the master of Jinjian Peak, Nangong Chenxing, the master of Giant Rock Peak, and Wen Bisheng, the master of Lian Shen Hall, all responded to the call, and their safety inevitably affected Li Mu's heart.

There are only a few people in the entire Qixuan Sect who can take advantage of them. If they encounter any accident, their high-end combat power will be almost wiped out.

"Sect Master, please rest assured that this time the Xuantian Sword Sect is fighting with almost all their strength. The two sword masters even brought the seventh-level Dao swords that you personally refined. Their combat power has been greatly increased. This battle will be won without a doubt." Qin Wentong looked at Li Mu with respect and affirmed.

Qin Wentong said this in a tone full of admiration for Li Mu's weapon-refining skills.

Refining a seventh-level Taoist weapon! For someone like him who has spent his whole life refining spiritual weapons, that is a state that he never dares to dream about.

However, Li Mu did it easily. He only had the cultivation of God Transformation and was less than two hundred years old, but he had successfully refined two seventh-level Taoist swords. Such an achievement was simply unbelievable. Qin Wentong saw it deeply. He glanced at Li Mu, his heart filled with respect.

Li Mu was accustomed to Qin Wentong's fiery gaze, so he responded with a smile and asked, "Elder Qin, if nothing happens, just leave it like this! I have been busy for several months, and I am ready to take a rest."

Hearing this, Qin Wentong couldn't help but feel a little disappointed. During this period, he had been working on Li Mu's weapon refining and gained a lot. He gradually reached the threshold of refining sixth-level spiritual treasures. He wanted to continue to observe and learn and strive for an early breakthrough, but Now it seemed that Li Mu obviously needed a rest, and he was too embarrassed to ask for it again.

"In that case, Sect Master, please have a good rest." Qin Wentong nodded with some regret, and then he seemed to remember something, and quickly added: "By the way, Sect Master, I have a list of people who have commissioned weapon refining this month. Do you want to You have to make them wait for a while, but some of them are heads of semi-large families, so you should consider it carefully."

With that said, Qin Wentong took out a white jade slip from the storage ring and handed it to Li Mu respectfully.

Li Mu quickly took the jade slip, immersed his spiritual thoughts in it, and quickly glanced at the list. He saw that there were indeed several prominent family names in it. He understood Qin Wentong's concerns. The patriarchs of four of the eight major families handed it over in person. Greetings, their purpose is self-evident.

With the news that he could refine seventh-level Taoist swords, Li Mu immediately became a popular friend of many high-level monks in Zhongzhou. This list is undoubtedly the recognition and value of him by the major forces, and also their recognition. Attempts to establish a relationship with him.

Seeing the entrustment lists of the four heads of the Kun family, Nangong family, Shangguan family, and Zhou family, Li Mu suddenly thought of something and his mind moved slightly.

Another wood-sealed 'Cangyuan Secret Realm' happens to be controlled by these eight major families. Now several clan leaders are visiting in person. Maybe they can take this opportunity to find out the news about the secret realm. Huo,

Li Mu was secretly calculating in his heart, but his face was expressionless. He looked up at Qin Wentong and said with a smile: "Elder Qin, please reply to the four chiefs of the eight major families and tell them that I want to have a detailed discussion with them before thinking about it again." Invite them to come to our sect tomorrow to discuss the matter of accepting their weapon refining commission."

When Qin Wentong heard this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly followed the order and left.

After Qin Wentong left, Li Mu once again immersed himself in his thoughts, knowing that this opportunity was rare. He knew too little about the 'Cangyuan Secret Realm', but this secret realm was obviously related to the Chaos Seal Formation, and it was most likely a wooden secret realm. The tie seals the polar regions, which has an irresistible attraction for him.

The next day, when the sun rose and the sunlight filled the earth, the four clan leaders of the eight major families arrived as scheduled. They were led by Qin Wentong to an elegant courtyard in the clan master's mansion, where Li Mu had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing the four clan leaders coming, Li Mu stepped forward and bowed and smiled: "I am really honored that the clan leaders can come to our clan in person."

The head of the Kun clan, Kun Yuanba, laughed and said in return: "Master Li, you are polite. Now that you are famous in Zhongzhou, it is our honor to make friends with you."

Everyone responded to the greetings for a while and sat down separately. Li Mu looked at the four people and said straight to the point: "To be honest, I invited everyone here today. In addition to wanting to further understand your needs for refining equipment, I also want to ask you something."

The head of the Nangong clan, Nangong Lie, looked at Li Mu and asked curiously : "Master Li, what do you need to ask us? As long as we know, we will tell you everything."

Li Mu nodded and slowly uttered a few words: "Cangyuan Secret Realm."

After these words came out, the faces of the four clan leaders changed slightly. Shangguan Yun, the clan leader of the Shangguan family, frowned and asked with concern: "Master Li, how did you know about the Cangyuan Secret Realm?"

Li Mu smiled slightly and explained: "To be honest, I have some research on the seal formation, and the Cangyuan Secret Realm is related to a seal I know. I am very interested in this secret realm, so I want to learn more from you."

Zhou Family Head-Zhou Hengping After a moment of chanting, he looked at Li Mu and said, "Since Sect Master Li is interested in the Cangyuan Secret Realm, we might as well speak frankly. This secret realm is indeed related to the seal formation, and contains endless opportunities and mysteries. However, entering the secret realm requires a seal hub composed of Chen cards, and our eight major families each have a part of the seal formation cards, and they must be gathered together to open it. "

After hearing this, Li Mu's heart moved and asked, "I wonder if several clan leaders will allow me to enter this secret realm? In return, I can do my best to help you complete your equipment refining needs."

The four clan leaders looked at each other, and Kun Yuanba said, "Sect Master Li, it's not We are not willing to share, but the secret of this seal concerns the fate of our eight families, unless you can become a member of our eight families..."

Li Mu frowned slightly, but remained calm on the surface, and asked with concern: "Then I wonder how to become a member of the eight families?"

Nangong Lie continued: "It's very simple, as long as you become a relative of any of our eight families, then we will naturally be a family."

"Patriarch Nangong, don't joke, if I become a Taoist partner with the woman of the Nangong family, will the other seven clan leaders be willing?" Li Mu laughed and retorted.

"What's the difficulty? We each send a woman from the clan to become a Taoist partner with you, and you will become a member of our eight families, right?" Shangguan Yun said jokingly, and the other clan leaders also laughed when they heard it.

Li Mu cursed in his heart, but he had to smile on his face, knowing that the eight families were testing him, and at the same time, they were setting problems for him to prevent him from entering the 'Cangyuan Secret Realm' without offending him too much.

Li Mu pondered for a moment, looked at the four people with a smile, and said seriously: "I appreciate the kindness of the clan leaders. But I am afraid that the Sword Sect will not sit idly by and watch such a big thing."

When Li Mu said this, the four clan leaders were speechless. That's right! If they want to dig into the corner of Xuantian Sword Sect, they have to weigh it. This person can refine the seventh-level Taoist soldiers. If they are dug away, it would be strange if Xuantian Sword Sect does not go crazy.

Thinking of this terrible consequence, cold sweat broke out on the foreheads of the four clan leaders.

Seeing the reactions of the four people, Li Mu smiled in his heart, knowing that his strategy worked. He did not intend to really marry the eight major families, but just took this opportunity to let them retreat when they knew the difficulty, and at the same time hinted to them that he was not without a backer.

Li Mu continued: "Several clan leaders, it's not that I don't want to have a deep bond with the eight major families, but this matter does need to be carefully considered. Moreover, I believe that there are many ways for us to cooperate, and we don't have to go through marriage."

Hearing this, Kun Yuanba and others nodded in agreement. They also knew that the marriage was indeed too direct and rough, and the Xuantian Sword Sect behind Li Mu was indeed not someone they could easily offend.

Nangong Lie sighed and said, "Master Li is right. We were not thoughtful enough. Then we will not mention the marriage, but I am afraid that Master Li will not be satisfied with the 'Cangyuan Secret Realm'!"

"Indeed, our eight major families jointly hold the key to the secret realm. It is agreed that it will be opened once a thousand years, and only outstanding disciples of each family can enter it and obtain various high-level resources." Shangguan Yun gestured.

"That's right. For 23,000 years, our eight major families have jointly customized the contract for quota allocation. Every time it is opened, each family will enter according to the contract allocation quota. If you are not a member of the eight major families, you cannot enter the secret realm. We have inherited this practice for more than 20,000 years and have never made an exception." Kun Yuanba looked straight at Li Mu and reminded him solemnly.

"Master Li, change the conditions! Cangyuan Secret Realm is not suitable for trading." Zhou Hengping looked at Li Mu and said coldly.

"That's true!" Shangguan Yun looked at Li Mu and agreed, his voice revealing an unquestionable rejection.

Li Mu frowned slightly after hearing this. He thought he could take this opportunity to explore the "Cangyuan Secret Realm", but he didn't expect there would be such a restriction.

After a moment, Li Mu raised his head, looked at the four clan leaders with burning eyes, and slowly said: "I understand the rules and the importance of the contract of the eight major clans, and fully respect your decisions, but now and then, the current situation Changes have taken place.”

Li Mu paused for a moment and continued: "As far as I know, the Cangyuan Secret Realm controlled by the eight major families should be one of the sub-formations of the Chaos Domain Array - the Wood Element Array. This array was used in ancient times. It is used to seal the passage between the two realms, its importance is self-evident."

At this point, Li Mu's tone became serious and he added: "However, with the fall of the Nanzhong Spiritual Territory, two of the seven sub-formations of the Chaos Territory Sealing Formation have fallen into the hands of the Moyuan forces. They are breaking through the formation forcefully, which not only poses a huge threat to Cangyuan Secret Realm, but also indirectly affects several other sealed places, causing the formation power to be greatly leaked. "

Seeing that the faces of the four clan leaders became solemn, he knew that his words had attracted their attention, so Li Mu struck while the iron was hot and continued: "The current situation is urgent. Whether the formation power of Cangyuan Secret Realm has been leaked and whether the seal has been loosened, All this requires careful investigation and repair.”

"And I am not only proficient in refining weapons, but also good at setting up formations, and have in-depth research on seals and magic formations. I can help you check for leaks in the seals of Cangyuan Secret Realm, and find ways to repair the disappearance of the restrictions!" Li Mu said forcefully and looked at it firmly. The four clan leaders signaled.

After hearing this, the four clan leaders looked at each other in confusion. What Li Mu said was true. The current situation was indeed as he said. The secret realm of Cangyuan had indeed leaked the strength of the formation, and it had reached a point where there was no need to delay. Moreover, as the Supreme Elder of the Xuantian Sword Sect, Li Mu possesses both array weapons, top-notch strength and intelligence. His array formation ability might really be able to help them solve this crisis.

Nangong Lie took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Sect Master Li, we will seriously consider your proposal. However, after all, this is related to the core interests of the eight major families. We need to invite other families and wait until everyone is gathered to discuss it. ”

"This is natural." Li Mu nodded to express understanding, looked at the four clan leaders and said: "You can consult, but please make a decision as soon as possible. After all, every day of delay, the strength of the Cangyuan Secret Realm will be weakened." ( End of this chapter)
