"General Shark is meritorious."
Li Mu said, "Go and rest."
General Shark was grateful. He thanked him profusely and left.
The other members of the Dragon Palace, including Prime Minister Turtle, heaved a sigh of relief.
Emperor Gou Chen was not cruel and harsh. He was gentle, so they wouldn't have to work so hard in the future.
"Are they from Ba Mountain Village?"
Li Mu asked the old witch.
The old witch's face was gloomy and cold. In her sunken eye sockets, her eyes were greyish-white. She said in a cruel voice, "I'm the Elder of the Middle Three Heavens' Witch Sect, Dragon King. It's our fault for trespassing into the Dragon Palace, but as the saying goes, the ignorant are not guilty. We didn't know that the Dragon Clan still exists.
Middle Three Heavens?
Not Ba Mountain Village?
Li Mu frowned and said, "What is the relationship between Ba Mountain Village and your Witch Sect?"
The old witch didn't know why Dragon King kept asking about Ba Mountain Village. She said, "Ba Mountain Village is a branch of our Witch Sect in Shu Mountain Secret Land."
"Very good." Li Mu nodded and said, "In that case, you should know about the Immortal Venomous Worm, right?"
"What?"
The old witch was shocked. Some information flashed in her mind. She said, "Well … Of course I know. Why do you want to know about the Immortal Venomous Worm?"
Li Mu said, "Do you have the antidote for the Immortal Venomous Worm? Give it to me and I will let you go."
The old witch's expression was bewildered.
"Well … the Immortal Venomous Worm is rare even in the Middle Three Heavens. Even the elders of the inner gate may not have seen it, let alone the antidote." She smiled bitterly and said, "I am just an elder of the outer gate. I have only heard of it. I have never seen it. How can I have the antidote?"
Li Mu was disappointed.
His sharp eyes swept over the curtain of bubbles and fell on the old witch's face.
The old witch felt an unprecedented pressure descend upon her body. Her heartstrings were stretched taut, as though they would snap at any moment. Cold sweat poured down her back, drenching her clothes.
Li Mu didn't think the old witch was lying.
The rarity of the [Immortal Parasitic Worm] was even higher than what Ghost's Worry had said.
Even in the Middle Three Heavens, this kind of Gu worm was very rare. How could the Ba Mountain Witch Village in the Secret Territory of Shu Mountain have it?
Even if he did, why would he be willing to give it to Jiang Xiaoyao to deal with Li Lin and Xue Rui?
This matter was not simple at all.
"Your expression tells me that there are other secrets regarding the [Immortal Parasitic Worms]."
Li Mu said.
The old witch shook her head repeatedly and said, "No, this divine object is extremely rare. I have only heard of it. How would I know other secrets? I don't have it, I really don't."
Li Mu sneered.
It was really three consecutive denials to reveal the truth.
"If you don't speak, you live; if you don't speak, you die."
Li Mu's voice, with inviolable majesty and will, reverberated in the hall.
The old witch turned pale and said, "I really didn't, Dragon King. I can't lie to you."
Li Mu glanced at Ying Guang.
The old Dragon King gave the order directly. There were some demonic cultivators among the Water Tribe who were good at interrogations. They directly dragged the old witch out from the crowd. All kinds of cold and horrifying Water Tribe torture instruments appeared in front of the old witch in the flickering light. She was so scared that she shivered and her soul left her body. She directly collapsed on the ground.
"Dragon King, I really told you everything …"
She begged miserably.
But there was no response from behind the dynamic bubble curtain.
The interrogator of the Water Tribe approached with the instruments of torture.
"Ah …"
The old witch screamed in fear and finally said, "I'll speak, I'll speak, I'll speak. The [Immortal Parasitic Worm] is one of the four treasures of the Witch Sect. Only the current master of the Witch Sect … Ah …"
Before her voice died away.
Bang.
There was a loud explosion.
The old witch's head suddenly exploded.
The interrogator of the Water Tribe who was about to carry out the torture had no time to react.
He only saw a faint remnant of light coming out of the old witch's broken brain. It turned into a dim light and flew out.
"Where do you think you're going?"
Li Mu shouted and the Linglong Pagoda in his hand flew out.
It spun.
Although it was launched later, it arrived first.
That remnant of light was immediately suppressed by the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda and directly absorbed into it.
During the whole process, the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda did not even grow bigger.
The miniature Exquisite Pagoda flew back to Li Mu's hand.
His divine thought sank into it.
On the first floor of the pagoda, that remnant of light had turned into a blurry figure with a tall, thin, and long face. It was madly bombarding the inner wall, trying to escape.
As soon as Li Mu's divine thought appeared on the first floor, the remnant immediately sensed it and fiercely rushed over.
However, although Li Mu's actual combat cultivation had not recovered to the level of his previous life, his divine thought and spiritual power were not inferior to that of his previous life. Moreover, he was in the Seven Treasures Exquisite Pagoda, so he instantly hit the blurry figure back.
Just as Li Mu was about to subdue it and interrogate it for information, the remnant figure started to burn.
"I've remembered your aura. I won't let you go."
With a voice as vicious as the curse of the King of Hell, the shadow directly disappeared by itself.
Li Mu could not stop it.
His divine thought withdrew from the pagoda.
A look of interest appeared on Li Mu's face.
Things were really not simple.
No wonder the old witch didn't say anything.
It turned out that someone had planted a curse in her body.
Once she said anything about the Immortal Venomous Worm, she would be detected in an instant and then cursed to death.
The person who cursed was not in the Dragon Palace, not in the upper world, not even in the human world, not in the secret realm.
He was in the Middle Three Heavens.
He could detect and curse the old witch from such a distance.
Then he could directly destroy a trace of the curse in the Exquisite Pagoda, not giving Li Mu a chance to follow the clues.
This person was very strong.
He was definitely above the General Realm.
Was he a witch in the Middle Three Heavens?
A smile appeared on Li Mu's face.
Interesting.
It seemed that it was impossible to find the antidote for the Immortal Venomous Worm this time.
He had to go to the Middle Three Heavens.
Calculating the time, there was not much time left since the point where the old faker asked him to leave Randengsi Village in his previous life.
Moreover, with the resources in the Dragon Palace, it was possible to quickly improve his cultivation through seclusion.
When his cultivation was strong enough, he would go to the Middle Three Heavens.
Of course, some people in Huaxia also had to be punished.
In the end, except for the experts in the Middle Three Heavens, all the treasures in the Dragon Palace were taken away and directly driven away.
The black-robed old man and more than a dozen men and women from the Middle Three Heavens were taken into the prison of the Dragon Palace and temporarily imprisoned.
The main hall was empty.
Li Mu met He Wu and Ye Feiran.
Of course, this time, they did not hide their faces, but met each other in person.
"I really didn't expect that Brother Li could directly win the loyalty of the Dragon Palace."
"I didn't expect Brother Li to directly gain the allegiance of the Dragon Palace's Water Clan."
The two drank the Dragon Birth Wine, ate the Fairy Marrow Seafood, and sighed with emotion over and over again.
When they first met Li Mu, they thought he was a monster, but when they saw him again, they were shocked.
The two drank the Dragon Birth Wine, ate the Fairy Marrow Seafood, and praised him over and over again.
In this trip to the Dragon Palace, Li Mu's performance had made them understand the gap between them and Li Mu. It was difficult to measure the distance between them and Li Mu, so they gave up the idea of comparing with Li Mu and catching up with him.
But he had overestimated Li Mu again and again, and he felt that he had reached his limit.
He still couldn't imagine that Li Mu had gained the allegiance of the Dragon King and the marine tribes of the Dragon Palace.
Li Mu did not explain further.
Among the crowd that had been dispersed earlier, they saw the superhuman muscleman Hancock and Uncle George. Obviously, He Wuxin and Ye Feiran did not manage to kill the two white powerhouses as they wished. For them, this was a setback, but also a wake-up call. It made them abandon their sense of superiority and open their eyes to the world.
"If the two of you wish to leave, you are free to take any treasures in the Dragon Palace. If you wish to stay for a period of time, you are free to walk around."
After the banquet, Li Mu stood up.
He Wuxin said, "Thank you, Brother Li. The two of us have come to the Dragon Palace under the orders of our master to look for a treasure. I hope Brother Li can help us find the treasure."
Ye Feiran also stood up and bowed. "Brother Li, please lend us a hand."
Li Mu said, "No problem. Just tell me what kind of treasure you want."
Not for the monk's sake, but for the Buddha's sake.
For Ding Hao's sake, he could give him anything.
"It's a meteorite left behind in the Dragon Palace."
He Wuxin said.
"A meteorite?"
Li Mu looked at Ying Guang, the Dragon King, who was standing aside.
Ying Guang thought carefully and said, "I don't seem to have noticed it. Young friend, could you describe it in detail?"
There were many treasures in the Dragon Palace.
The Dragon Tribe was born to collect things.
Therefore, when the aquatic tribes got their hands on a lot of strange things, they would offer them to the Dragon King.
There were many things that the Dragon King himself did not need, so Prime Minister Turtle made a list and put them in the Treasure Vault.
He Wuxin roughly described it and explained with embarrassment, "I haven't seen it with my own eyes. My master sent me a message and said that it could be found in the Dragon Palace. As for the specific location, I don't know."
Li Mu said, "Since your master said it was in the Dragon Palace, it must be here. Ying Guang, send someone to look for it. You must find it."
Ying Guang, the Five-clawed Golden Dragon King, was about to ask who Li Mu's master was. But when he saw how much Li Mu valued the master of the two insignificant cultivators and even showed complete trust and a hint of respect, he swallowed all the words he wanted to ask.
"I'll go in person."
Ying Guang took Prime Minister Turtle to inspect the Treasure Vault in person.
About four hours later, a team of tortoise soldiers carried four or five meteorite-like objects into the hall.
"There are five similar stones. Young friend, please check them."
Ying Guang said.
Li Mu stood up with a hint of surprise in his eyes and said, "No need to check them. It must be this one."
He pointed at the third meteorite and said with certainty.
That meteorite looked about the size of a football. It was dark and looked like a coal briquet.
But the moment Li Mu saw the meteorite, he couldn't help but feel a strange excitement.
It was as if the meteorite was alive.
It was very kind.
