After Li Mu left, Wang Chuxuan did not dare to be careless. He personally took Li Lin and Xue Rui to Ningping City and settled them in the government office used to receive new ascendants. He ordered people to receive them carefully and, of course, to keep an eye on them.
Later, Wang Chuxuan personally went to the City Lord's Mansion and asked to see the City Lord of Ningping City, Li Qingxin.
Li Qingxin was one of the successors of Green Lotus Magic Sword. His swordsmanship was superb and he had been stationed in Ningping City for more than 60 years.
"The inquiry scroll has been sent in for two hours, but the City Lord still hasn't issued any orders. I wonder why."
Wang Chuxuan came to the mansion and, led by his good friend Li Mingzhe, went to the conference hall.
"There is an urgent military order in Common People City. His Excellency has just returned to receive the envoy."
Li Mingzhe said.
He was the chief guard of the City Lord's Mansion.
Born in the Li Family of the Green Lotus Divine Sword lineage, they were related to City Lord Li Qingxin by blood. They were impartial and experienced, and were the right-hand men of City Lord Li Qingxin. In the entire Ningping City, they were highly respected figures.
Wang Chuxuan was shocked.
Cang Sheng was the base camp of the ascendants.
An urgent military order must be related to something important.
Was something big going to happen in the Middle Three Heavens?
"His Excellency, please come in."
A guard came out to report.
Wang Chuxuan and Li Mingzhe entered the conference hall together.
"Greetings, His Excellency."
The two bowed at the same time.
Li Qingxin, the City Lord of Ningping City, was a man who looked about 30 years old. He was full of the elegance of a mature man. His sword-like eyebrows reached his temples and his facial features were sharp and angular. He wore a blue robe and sat behind the big table, looking dignified without being angry.
"Sit down."
Li Qingxin raised her hand and looked at Wang Chuxuan. She said, "I've already read the inquiry scroll that Chuxuan sent. Chuxuan, what do you think of this matter?"
Wang Chuxuan said, "If it is true, it is another genius of the three supreme level."
Nodding his head, Li Qingxin replied, "That's right, three absolute geniuses. If there's another one, then our Ascender Faction will be able to completely turn the situation around. I hope that's the case, but we can't let our guard down. After all, three absolute geniuses aren't that easy to appear."
Wang Chuxuan said, "I don't dare to be negligent. I've already sent people to find all the immortals who ascended from the Kunlun Secret Realm and ask them one by one. After all, the Haoran Righteous Alliance's foundation in the Kunlun Secret Realm is too shallow. There are no ascendants, so we can only start with the ascendants from the Kunlun Secret Realm, such as the Zhengyi School. Unfortunately, the power of the Zhengyi School in the Secret Realm was severely damaged and can no longer contact us. Otherwise, to verify this man's identity, we only need to contact the Kunlun Secret Realm through other means."
Li Qingxin nodded and said, "Alright, I'll leave this matter to Chu Xuan."
There was a tinge of regret in his words.
The Ascender Faction was the weakest among the three major factions in the Middle Three Heavens.
In the past, it was not easy for them to communicate with the Secret Realm of the Lower Three Heavens and establish contact with the mortal world. Who knew that in the battle in the Kunlun Secret Realm, the Zhengyi School, as the spokesperson of the Ascender Faction, would be defeated by Ancestor Qing Tian. They suffered heavy losses and were forced to seal their mountains to protect themselves. They were almost destroyed.
This only line of communication was thus severed.
At this point, the ascenders had already lost control and understanding of everything that was happening below.
"Lord, what's the urgent military order from the Common People City for?"
Li Mingzhe asked curiously.
Li Qingxin's expression turned solemn as he said, "There's a movement in the Taoist Master Alliance. They've sent out twelve Immortal Generals, led by the Third Elder of the Mansion of the Underworld, toward the Vast Sea Forest. Their purpose is unknown."
Li Mingzhe and Wang Chuxuan were shocked when they heard this.
The twelve Immortal Generals traveling together was already a major event worthy of attention.
And the appearance of the Third Elder of the Mansion of the Underworld, Ming Han, was even more extraordinary.
After all, he was an existence at the Immortal Emperor Realm.
An Immortal Lord Realm expert could be considered as a strategic existence in any camp.
"Could they be here because of Li Mu?"
Wang Chuxuan's heart moved and he couldn't help but guess.
Li Qingxin said, "There is a certain possibility. The three Pinnacle Realms hurt the Taoist Master Alliance deeply. They definitely won't sit back and watch as the three Pinnacle Realms become the four Pinnacle Realms. It isn't impossible for them to send an expert of Ming Han's level to get rid of this problem in advance."
Li Mingzhe was anxious and he blurted out, "Isn't Li Mu in danger outside the city? Why don't we quickly summon him into the city … "
Li Qingxin and Wang Chuxuan exchanged glances with one another, both of them facepalming.
"Eh, did I say something wrong?"
Li Mingzhe looked at their expressions and knew that he had made a mistake. He felt a little awkward.
Wang Chuxuan said, "Li Mu's identity still needs to be investigated. The more important he is, the more we have to investigate carefully. We can't be too hasty. Brother Li, have you ever thought that Li Mu is actually a bait used by the Taoist Master Alliance? The methods of the Taoist Master Alliance are despicable and cunning.
It isn't impossible for them to use such a plan. "
…
…
The Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth and the Law of Tides in the Middle Three Heavens were clearer and richer than in the mortal world and secret realms.
Li Mu found a place with a wide view in the hills thousands of miles away from Ningping City. He sat on the ground and began to cultivate.
His current cultivation level had only just reached the Fairy Realm.
However, because of his previous life, his combat strength was very exaggerated, comparable to that of a peak Fairy General.
That was why he could subdue the Four Sages of the Wizard Ancestor that day.
Although he traveled extremely fast along the way, he deliberately left some clues behind.
He believed that those "people with ulterior motives" hiding in the dark would definitely track him down.
In fact, Li Mu himself didn't want to enter Ningping City.
He was worried that it would bring an unexpected disaster to the town of the ascenders.
"Before the possible enemies come, I need to improve my strength as soon as possible."
Li Mu planned in his mind.
"In addition, I have to make some other preparations."
He began to set up a tactical deployment in this area.
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed.
Li Mu set up a killing deployment that covered a vast area.
Setting up a tactical deployment was also a kind of cultivation.
Li Mu's cultivation realm was rising crazily as if he was using a cheat.
When he was in the human world and secret realms, his cultivation rose slowly, mainly because the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth was insufficient and the Law of Heaven and Earth was incomplete.
The environment in the Middle Three Heavens was comparable to that of the Fairy Realm.
It took Li Mu less than ten days to advance from the Fairy Realm to the peak of the Banished Fairy Realm.
And his combat strength was close to that of a Fairy Master.
"I wonder if those who come now are qualified enough to know the secret of the past."
Li Mu was looking forward to it.
With a red heart, he was prepared for both eventualities. While cultivating, he waited.
…
A hundred thousand miles away.
Thirteen figures stood on the back of a Black Bird.
The Black Bird flew extremely fast, covering hundreds of miles with a flap of its wings.
"Elder, we will enter the territory of the ascenders if we go any further. Ningping City is the first to bear the brunt."
The Fairy General of the Underworld in dark gray armor said.
The leading elder of the Underworld, Ming Han, nodded and said, "Our operation this time is very secretive. The ascenders must be unprepared, so we must finish the battle quickly. We must not attract any of the three peerless geniuses. Otherwise, all our efforts will be in vain."
Another Fairy General said, "That guy named Li Mu must be in Ningping City now. He has just arrived, so it will not be so easy for him to pass the examination of the ascenders. What's more, what he has done is somewhat shocking. Li Qingxin of Ningping City is cautious and lacks decisiveness. He will definitely not admit Li Mu's identity so quickly."
"This Li Mu is indeed a seed of trouble. We must get rid of him as soon as possible. Otherwise, there will be the fourth peerless genius in the ascenders' camp."
"Yes. With our strength, as long as we attack unprepared, we can break into Ningping City within half an hour, slaughter the people in the city, and set up the Dark World All-directional Annihilation Formation. We would rather kill the wrong people than let them go. "
The other Immortal Generals chimed in.
Ming Han was silent.
He knew more than the twelve immortal generals.
The raid this time was not just to guard against the "fourth peerless genius" of the ascenders' camp.
"This Li Mu is not as simple as he seems to be. He's not just an ascendant."
If it wasn't for the fact that he was worried that he would attract the attention of the top figures in the Heavenly Law Alliance and the ascenders' camp, it wouldn't have been him, but the real bigwigs who had come.
"The Vast Sea Forest is ahead."
A Fairy General said.
The vast primeval forest, like a green sea, stretched as far as the eye could see.
Black Bird flapped its wings and swept across the sky.
"Ningping City is less than two thousand miles away …"
The 12 Fairy Generals' hearts surged with fighting spirit.
Suddenly —
"Something's wrong."
Ming Han's face changed dramatically, and he said, "Stop."
Before Black Bird could react, the surrounding Void suddenly burst out with broadsword light. Swoosh!
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Streams of color-changing Saber Intents, which looked like the water of the Milky Way flowing backwards, came from all directions and sealed the void like an inescapable net. A terrifying killing intent that made one's hair stand on end suddenly descended.
"Oh no!"
"Ah …"
"Help me!"
Puff! Puff!
In the Void, a mist of blood burst out.
The huge Mystic Bird was instantly minced into blood and powder. Six of the twelve Immortal Generals were smashed into pieces almost at the same time. Their flesh and blood mixed with the Mystic Bird and scattered between heaven and earth. Another four had broken limbs. Only the two closest to Ming Han had escaped this instant of death. However, their bodies were covered with wounds. Looking at the broken weapons in their hands, they shivered.
"Who is it?"
Ming Han roared.
The Immortal Dao Domain opened up, layer after layer of light rippled out, enveloping himself and the remaining six Immortal Generals within.
His heart was cold.
"Oh no."
"I was ambushed."
"Did the operation this time leak out?"
"Which one of the ascenders' camp is this Broadsword Intent?"
"Is it Ding Hao, one of the Three Peerless Geniuses?"
"That man is skilled in both saber and sword, and his killing intent is unparalleled in the world. He can definitely do that."
"If it is this man … then all of us are doomed."
But at this moment, a short-haired young man in strange clothes slowly walked out of the ripples in the Void.
He was valiant, masculine, and handsome.
He looked to be in his twenties.
"It's not Ding Hao?"
