Golden talismans of the Immortal Dao covered Li Mu's body. Every time the Black Natural Calamity Gale swept across him, the golden spots of light grew brighter and brighter. Like a newly lit bonfire, the flames were gradually rising.
Every time the Black Natural Disaster Gale attacked, it was like a gust of wind blowing at a raging fire. Not only could it not put out the fire, but it also made it burn even more fiercely. Every time, the golden flame on the surface of Li Mu's body would suddenly change and become a little brighter.
Li Mu's body seemed to be burning.
This process required a lot of energy.
When he upgraded the Immortal-slaying Sword, he absorbed all the power of the Fairy Crystals, and the power of the Immortal Way stored in his body was refined one by one.
Li Mu could clearly feel that his body was changing.
It was like it was slowly merging with the Celestial Path True Essence in his body.
His physique was strengthening at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The Black Heavenly Calamity Wind howled and blew past.
The light radiating from Li Mu's body became more and more dazzling.
He was like a small sun that floated in the void below the God Howling Cliff.
The cultivation of the [Great Sun Immortal Body] was faster than expected.
"According to the description in the [Ocean, Sun, and Moon Immortal Seeking Mantra], when the [Great Sun Immortal Body] is cultivated to the primary level, I can use my physical strength to withstand the full blow of a Golden Immortal. I'm very close to the primary level now."
Li Mu looked inside himself.
The Great Solar True Fire in his body was like a copper cauldron, blazing fiercely.
"Body like a furnace, inner yuan like fire, spirit as charcoal, dao as the great pill …"
Li Mu was enlightened.
Golden Immortal Dao Patterns fused into his skin, flesh, and bones. The Immortal Dao True Essence in his body was converted into Solar Truefire.
It was not until then that Li Mu could be regarded as a real fire immortal.
At the same time, with a thought, he broke through to the peak of Perfected Immortal.
Quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
Li Mu had killed Wei Xianshan, Liang Zhen, Zhao Yiqiu, and the others. Then, he had battled several Golden Immortals of the Dongxuan Celestial Gate. After a series of battles, he had accumulated a great deal of combat experience in the way of immortality. This time, he was in closed-door training.
Li Mu's heart stirred.
He turned into a flaming man.
His body could continuously change between the Great Sun True Fire and his physical body, these two different physical forms.
Fire could be nothing.
On the other hand, his physical body was solid.
The transformation between illusion and reality, if used skillfully in battle, could unleash tremendous destructive power.
Barely able to enter the state of the Celestial Body of the Great Sun, Li Mu continued to comprehend.
But there was still a gap between such power and the description in the [Sea, Sun, and Moon Seeking Formula].
After a while, Li Mu realized the real reason.
"Seems like it's not that my comprehension is lacking, but that my cultivation is too weak. If I want to reach lesser mastery of the Great Sun Immortal Physique, I need to be at least in the Golden Immortal Realm. I need to hurry and raise my cultivation."
He immediately set up a formation in the air and embedded immortal crystals into it to absorb the power of the immortal path.
There was no other way.
With a lot of immortal crystals, one could be so extravagant.
It was rumored that the rich were willful.
An endless stream of immortal spiritual energy poured into Li Mu's body.
Under the external pressure of the black calamity wind, Li Mu focused on visualizing the Grand Sun Ascension in his mind, practicing the mental cultivation method of the Grand Sun lineage, and constantly absorbing the immortal energy to improve his cultivation.
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
On this day, two beams of divine light suddenly rose from the God Howling Abyss and burst out. Like two divine swords, they cut through the storm of the black calamity wind and pierced into the sky.
In the void under the God Howling Abyss, a mass of Grand Sun True Fire was constantly flickering and changing positions like a stream of light.
Sometimes it was a blazing fireball like a star.
Sometimes it scattered into flying stars all over the sky.
When the dazzling brilliance of the fireball gradually subsided, Li Mu's figure finally appeared.
"Golden Immortal Realm, Celestial Body of the Great Sun Realm."
A satisfied smile appeared on his face.
It had been two years and one month since he came to the Immortal Realm, and he had sneaked under the God Howling Abyss for a total of six months and 21 days. His strength had finally made a qualitative leap.
Golden Immortal!
In the prefecture, he could be regarded as a big shot.
Moreover, with the Celestial Body of the Great Sun and the Immortal-slaying Technique, Li Mu's combat strength was close to that of an Immortal General. Even if he encountered an expert in the Immortal General Realm, he could still fight.
As for those in the Golden Immortal Realm, Li Mu was confident that he could directly kill them.
"In the past half a year, I don't know to what extent the battle outside has developed."
With a stir of his mind, Li Mu directly summoned Yuan Hou.
A moment later, Yuan Hou came to the bottom of the God Howling Abyss.
"Young Master, you … have made another breakthrough?"
At the sight of Li Mu, Yuan Hou's expression was full of astonishment. He felt an unprecedented pressure coming at him, which made him have the illusion that his spine was about to be bent.
Li Mu nodded with a smile.
Yuan Hou's strength had also increased greatly. It had entered the middle stage of the Genuine Immortal Realm.
Since he came to the Immortal Realm, Yuan Hou seemed to have broken some shackles in his body. His cultivation speed was incredibly fast, and he was proficient in the Sea School, the Grand Sun School, and the Dark Moon School at the same time.
In terms of progress, he was only behind Li Mu.
But in the eyes of the bystanders, it was already a little shocking.
"How's the situation outside?" Li Mu asked.
Yuan Hou said, "Young Master, after you were imprisoned in the God Howling Cliff, the war between the Extreme Emperor Cliff and the Eastern Xuan Celestial Sect gradually expanded. Later, the Solitary Sword Sect, the Ganlin Mountain, the Demon-refining Pavilion, the Eastern Illusion Divine Dynasty, the Nine Cauldrons Sect, and other major sects joined in one after another. By now, it has evolved into a war between the Yuechuan Prefecture and the Caochuan Prefecture, and the situation has completely gone out of control."
Hearing that, Li Mu's face lit up.
Had it turned into a war between the prefectures?
Very good.
This progress was several times faster than he had imagined.
Originally, Li Mu planned to come out of the closed-door training as soon as he became a Golden Immortal. No matter what the emperor of Huangji Cliff thought, he must push the war to the level of a provincial government war. But he didn't expect that he didn't have to do anything. The situation was already perfect.
However, this level of war was still not enough.
If they could start a war between continents and let those top Celestial Sects fall into the enemy's hands, then the Celestial Realm would truly fall into chaos. They would no longer have time to worry about invading the Lower World, nor would they have time to look for the old faker and the people of Taixuan Academy.
That was the only way that the Ziwei Galaxy, Earth, and other cultivation worlds in the Lower Worlds could be truly protected.
Therefore, he still needed to work hard.
However, since the war between prefectures had begun, it was time to really take revenge on Huangji Cliff, the Solitary Sword Sect, and the Dongxuan Celestial Sect.
"Xiao Jiu and Rascal have been inquiring about the news everywhere. At the same time, according to what Young Master said, they have done a lot of assassination and framing. However, it is someone else who has really plunged the two prefectures into an irreversible war," Yuan Hou added.
"Oh?" Li Mu was surprised and asked, "Who is it?"
"Blissful Fairy, Xia Jing," Yuan Hou answered.
"This woman?"
Li Mu was stunned.
During his time in Huangji Cliff, the person who really left the deepest impression on Li Mu was not Xiao Xiao, Zhou Kefu, the eighth prince, or the current emperor.
It was Xia Jing.
Of course, this impression had nothing to do with the "erotic palace" he saw in the Yellow Dragon Pavilion that day.
But Li Mu couldn't understand this woman.
Everyone had a core goal in everything they did.
Someone wanted to be promoted.
Someone wanted to make a fortune.
Someone wanted to get a better Cultivation Method.
But what on earth was Xia Jing's purpose in Huangji Cliff?
"The Blissful Fairy has now replaced Xiao Xiao as the Left Deputy Prime Minister of the Extreme Emperor Cliff. She is deeply trusted by the emperor. On the surface, she conscripted soldiers in the country with iron and blood, advocated for the war, and cooperated with the Donghuang Divine Dynasty and the Demon Refining Pavilion. She did her best for the interests of the Donghuang Divine Dynasty and the Demon Refining Pavilion. But we inadvertently found that Xia Jing had done a lot of things in the dark, constantly intensifying the conflict between the two states. There were several opportunities for a ceasefire, but Xia Jing destroyed them all with extremely clever means. Now, the hatred between the two states has been completely ignited, and there is no way to negotiate anymore."
Yuan Hou told Li Mu everything he knew in detail.
Li Mu asked, "Which side has the upper hand now?"
Yuan Hou answered, "Huangji Cliff lost two-thirds of its troops and seven Golden Immortals. All the disciples under the third generation of the Dongxuan Celestial Sect died in battle, and 15 Golden Immortals were lost. But these two forces are no longer the leaders of the war. Among the three major forces in Yuechuan Prefecture, the Demon Refining Pavilion and the Donghuang Divine Dynasty are united, and the Xuanxian Sect remains neutral. The Ganlin Mountain and the Nine Cauldrons Sect are the main forces in Caochuan Prefecture, and the Yi Sword Sect is also involved. In half a year, 68 Golden Immortals have died …"
After hearing that, Li Mu suddenly felt that it was not the time for him to come out of closed-door training.
Now the war was at a crazy time. The two sides were really angry, and all kinds of means would be used. At this time, if he went out and showed a little bit of strength, he was afraid that he would become the target of all parties and attract too much hatred, which was not good.
"After you go back, tell Little Nine and Rascal not to do anything in the following days. You don't need to investigate or ask for information. Just hide and don't expose your identity. When the forces in the two prefectures are in a mess, come to me."
Li Mu said.
Yuan Hou said, "I got it."
Then, he turned and walked out.
Li Mu suddenly thought of something and said, "Settle down Little Nine and the earth rogue tiger, and you also sneak into the God Howling Abyss. This place is suitable for your cultivation. You can choose one of the three major schools of the Sea, Sun, and Moon Immortal-Seeking Method to cultivate."
"Yes."
Yuan Hou left.
Li Mu continued to cultivate in the God Howling Abyss.
In the blink of an eye, another year passed.
All kinds of cultivation resources in Li Mu's hands were basically used up.
His realm directly rose from the initial stage of the Golden Immortal to the peak.
And the Celestial Body of the Great Sun had also reached the middle level.
Yuan Hou, on the other hand, practiced the Glazed Celestial Body of the Moonlight, and his cultivation finally reached the peak of the initial stage of the Golden Immortal Realm.
At this time, Little Nine brought news.
"The imperial city of Huangji Cliff is about to fall and be destroyed."
