Each of the five calamitous winds had its own horror.
Among them, the black calamitous wind was enough to melt the flesh and bones of a Golden Immortal and shatter his Primordial Spirit. Living in such an environment for a long time would only lead to death.
Especially after the Immortal Collapse Era, many cultivation methods and supernatural powers were cut off, and all kinds of disasters occurred frequently. Many immortal cultivators died in natural disasters like the black calamitous wind, which made people tremble with fear when they mentioned it.
But Li Mu knew that the calamitous wind was also a treasure.
Five calamitous winds, six destructive waters, seven thunders and eight lightnings …
These natural forces that were naturally born from Immortal Dao Laws possessed boundless destructive force and shocking killing intent. Everyone's expressions changed when they heard of them, but in reality, if one looked at it from another perspective, they were all rare sources of energy.
For example, the black calamitous wind was the best help for cultivating the immortal body.
It just so happened that in the secret cultivation manuals of the Vast Sea Sect, there was a top Immortal Body tempering method. It was to observe the sea, the Great Sun, and the Silver Moon. The fire-attribute Immortal Body of the Great Sun Lineage was called the Great Sun Immortal Body, and it required the assistance of the five winds of disaster.
The black calamitous wind was one of the external conditions for cultivating the Celestial Body of the Sun.
The Celestial Body of the Sun was a fire attribute immortal body.
As the saying went, the wind helped the fire, and so did the laws of the immortal Taoism.
After a series of battles, Li Mu urgently needed to improve his strength.
He needed to be strong enough to protect himself.
Li Mu had already figured that out when he went on a killing spree on the front line of the Western Region.
He knew very well that the emperor was not a reliable partner.
No, he was not even a partner.
The emperor was cold-hearted and unkind.
Otherwise, he would not have urgently summoned him back to the capital after a great victory, and he would not have hesitated and not stopped him when he invited himself into the God Howling Cliff … To this emperor, as long as it involved his core interests, he would absolutely not show any mercy. No matter how much he doted on his subjects in the past, he would casually sacrifice them.
Once the Dongxuan Immortal Sect, the Immortal Courts of the two prefectures, and many other forces found out that the Emperor Extreme Cliff was growing stronger, and if the Emperor Extreme Cliff could not bear the pressure, Li Mu was likely to be the scapegoat.
So, he had to hide.
Li Mu's way out was to enter the God Howling Cliff as a punishment.
On the one hand, he wanted to shut some people up.
On the other hand, this was the cultivation environment he needed.
When he first came to the Extreme Emperor Cliff, Li Mu had looked up information about the God Howling Cliff and knew that there was a Black Natural Disaster Wind here.
He could use this opportunity to refine the [Great Sun Immortal Body] and increase his strength.
He focused his mind and calmed himself.
He entered a meditative state.
Li Mu searched in his mind and brought out the part of the Celestial Body of the Vast Sea and Sun Moon Immortal-Seeking Method. Then, he began to analyze, study, and comprehend it seriously.
Half a day later …
Then, Li Mu entered the state of cultivation.
In the God Howling Cliff, there was only the Black Natural Calamity Wind, and the Immortal Dao Yuan Qi was weak. If one wanted to cultivate, they would have to rely on Immortal Crystals at all times.
But after the Immortal Collapse Era, immortal crystals were a luxury.
An ordinary Immortal Dao cultivator would be considered wealthy if they could carry some immortal crystals in their pockets. For a Golden Immortal like the Extreme Emperor Cliff, their annual salary was only 500 kilograms of immortal crystals.
On the other hand, if a Golden Immortal cultivator cultivated freely, 500 kilograms of Immortal Crystals would only be enough for about a month.
This was also the reason why the God Howling Cliff had become a place where everyone's expressions changed when they heard of it.
But Li Mu was different.
In his heart, he was a "rich man".
He had 30,000 to 40,000 kilograms of Immortal Crystals.
In addition to his own salary, the reward from the emperor, and the more than 3,000 fairy crystals and various resources he had looted after killing the two brothers, Wei Rulong and Wei Ruhu, Li Mu had also killed many experts of the Dongxuan Celestial Sect during the battle in the West Region. He had also secretly plundered various places and gained a lot.
He had made a fortune from the war.
Therefore, even if Li Mu cultivated in the God Howling Cliff for three to four years, it would not be a problem.
…
…
In the outside world.
The war between the Extreme Emperor Cliff and the Dongxuan Celestial Sect had attracted the attention and shock of the major forces in the two prefectures.
In the Yuechuan Prefecture, the Demon Refining Pavilion and the Donghuang Divine Dynasty, one of the three top forces, had expressed their support for the Extreme Emperor Cliff to varying degrees.
And the Xuanxian Sect had been silent.
In the Cao Chuan Prefecture, there were also higher-level Immortal Dao forces, such as the Ganlin Mountain, who had expressed their support for the Dongxuan Celestial Sect.
And the branches of the Immortal Court in the two prefectures just tried to mediate.
Naturally, the mediation failed.
In the end, the war continued.
The new emperor of the Extreme Emperor carefully selected several generals and experts to be the new commander of the Western Expedition Army after weighing the interests of all parties in the imperial court. Among them was Ke Yilun, a big shot in the military of the older generation.
At the same time, a large number of soldiers were conscripted in the country.
Another 100,000 soldiers were deployed to the Dongxuan Celestial Sect.
Without a doubt, after seeing the success of the war, the new emperor changed his original plan to wait for a while and directly expanded the scale of the war with confidence.
He was waiting for the news of the epic victory.
Ten days later.
The news came from the frontline.
Bad news.
The Western Expedition Army was defeated and retreated thousands of miles. They lost more than 100,000 soldiers, including two Golden Immortal experts.
The war was pushed back to the border of the two Immortal Dao forces.
The imperial capital was shocked by the news.
"Why is this happening?"
The Emperor's roar echoed throughout the Emperor's Palace.
All the officials were speechless.
"Didn't you all say that the Dongxuan Celestial Sect is strong on the outside but weak on the inside? That the army of the Extreme Emperor Cliff was unparalleled, that's why we were able to win the war. That it wasn't Mu Mu's credit. Even if we had a few dogs as the commander, we would be able to crush the Dongxuan Celestial Sect? What about now? 300,000 soldiers, five Golden Immortals, Ke Yilun, the old commander second only to Zhou Kefu, was defeated … "
The emperor was so angry that his head hurt.
"Your Majesty, there's news from the frontline. The Dongxuan Celestial Sect is supported by Ganlin Mountain …" Xiao Xiao quickly explained.
"Shut up!"
The emperor roared.
The more he looked at Xiao Xiao, the more he hated him.
Ever since he ascended to the throne, Xiao Xiao's incompetence and shortsightedness were on full display. Now, he was even working with the old faction in the imperial court to resist him … Damn it.
Xiao Xiao retreated to the side silently.
At this time, he was slowly becoming immune to the emperor's scolding.
"Your Majesty, since Ganlin Mountain is openly involved in the war, we don't have to worry too much anymore," a pleasant female voice said.
Xia Jing, the Blissful Fairy, who was dressed in her official robes, stepped forward.
"Your Majesty, you can't do that. You should think twice before you act." An old official knew what Xia Jing meant and quickly objected.
Huangji Cliff had the support of the Donghuang Divine Dynasty and the Demon Refining Pavilion.
What Xia Jing meant was simple. Since the Dongxuan Celestial Sect had found their "father", then their "father" could also join in.
However, if giants like Ganlin Mountain, the Donghuang Divine Dynasty, and the Demon Refining Pavilion joined in, the nature of the war would change.
In the end, the war would definitely go out of control.
What would be the fate of Huangji Cliff?
Who knew?
The biggest disaster for a weak force was to be involved in the conflict between the big forces. It was like a small boat being dragged into the whirlpool of the sea. When that time came, it would be hard for them to control their own lives. Being smashed into pieces would be the least of their worries.
The emperor glanced at the old official.
This was a loyal old official with no bad record. Since the emperor ascended to the throne, he had also done his best to assist him.
He had to consider the words of such an old official.
The emperor was a little hesitant.
Xia Jing said indifferently, "Your Majesty, since Gan Lin Shan has interfered, that means that the situation can only expand, and there is no sign of it shrinking. The situation is already like this, if we hesitate, I'm afraid we will fall behind again, and lose the initiative. If we take a step forward, we might have a chance of survival. If we take a step back, we will be smashed into pieces. "
The emperor was even more hesitant now.
Both sides made sense.
Who should he listen to?
Xia Jing continued, "If Commander Mu was still here, he would definitely agree with me … If we do not advance bravely now, we will not have another chance when we are defeated."
The emperor's heart trembled.
Yes.
If Mu Mu was still here, he would definitely be able to make a decision.
Some people, when they are by your side, you may not realize how important they are, but once they disappear, you will realize how much you miss them.
It was a pity that the space under the Howling God Cliff was vast and the Black Natural Disaster Wind was everywhere. Without clear coordinates, unless Mu Mu came out, it would be difficult for others to find him.
What a headache.
However, Xia Jing's words just now were very reasonable.
If Mu Mu was here, he would definitely choose to attack.
As the Emperor was thinking about this, another report came from outside the hall. A eunuch walked in quickly, holding a military report from the frontlines in his hand.
"Your Majesty, Lord Ke Yilun has sent someone to deliver the Dongxuan Immortal Gate's peace treaty."
The eunuch said loudly.
Peace treaty?
The officials in the hall were instantly shocked.
Good news.
The Dongxuan Immortal Gate was willing to negotiate. Did that mean that the war was about to end?
"Haha, Old General Ke is really a god. He actually forced the Dongxuan Immortal Gate to accept the peace treaty. He has done a great job."
"That's right, that's right. This is the best outcome."
"Old General Ke Yilun is trustworthy."
Sounds of praise rang out.
Xia Jing looked at these people as if she was looking at a pigsty full of stupid pigs.
Mu Mu, who attacked the Dongxuan Immortal Gate and occupied three cities, was guilty.
Ke Yilun and the others, who lost a hundred thousand soldiers and fled the Cao Chuan Prefecture, were accused of attacking a city?
Crack.
After reading the peace treaty, the emperor threw it on the ground and smashed the golden dragon table.
"I have made up my mind to fight the Dongxuan Immortal Gate to the death."
An angry roar reverberated in the royal palace.
The officials' compliments to Ke Yilun and the others stopped abruptly.
What happened?
…
…
"The Celestial Body of the Great Sun is indeed extraordinary."
Li Mu sat cross-legged in the void under the Howling God Cliff.
The Black Natural Disaster Wind kept roaring and attacking his body.
The Celestial Qi of the Great Sun in his body kept running.
