What was Li Mu's idea?
Of course, he was going to open the express delivery.
It was just that this courier named Zhao Jing might not be very friendly.
However, this was the only way.
After Qing Feng's interrogation, he roughly knew the combat power of the early stage of the Soldier Realm under the suppression of the Grand Devil-subduing Formation. It was clear that if they fought head-on, they had little chance of winning, so they could only … launch a sneak attack.
Just when Li Mu, Guo Yuqing, Yuan Hou, and Ming Yue, who were the most powerful, once again shamelessly pretended to be the slaves of the four sons of Hun Yuan Sect, and the four sons of Hun Yuan Sect, under the "tyranny" of Li Mu, were preparing to "rebel" and launch a sneak attack on the elders of their own sect with a bitter face. Finally, Elder Zhao Jing, who was at the early stage of the Soldier Realm, flew over from a distance in a rainbow, more than ten meters above the ground.
As powerful elders of extraterrestrial sects, they could still fly close to the ground under the suppression of the "Grand Demon-subduing Formation", unlike the others who could only run on the ground like before. That was a major sign of the difference between their strength and realms.
Li Mu and the others' hearts were in their throats.
However, what happened in the next moment left everyone dumbfounded.
As soon as Elder Zhao Jing arrived before the crowd, before the crowd could even begin their 'performance', he suddenly plummeted down from a height of ten meters, creating a huge crater on the ground.
"What's going on?"
No one had expected that an elder in the Soldier Realm would appear in this way. It was too unique, wasn't it?
"Elder Zhao." The uni-browed man and the others rushed over in a hurry.
Li Mu also followed him cautiously.
To everyone's surprise, the rumored elder at the initial stage of the Soldier Realm, who ranked among the top five in the Hun Yuan Sect, was covered in blood and had lost an arm. He fell to the ground and was seriously injured. His breathing was very weak, and he was gasping for air.
"The Hun Yuan Sect is finished …" Zhao Jing opened his eyes in a daze. When he saw the four people with the uni-browed man and the hawk-nosed man, his turbid eyes glowed with a glimmer of light, and then turned into sorrow. He said, "The Hun Yuan Sect has been breached. They're dead, all dead … I escaped alone with the Landing Formation that I had prepared in advance …"
"What?"
"Elder, speak clearly. What's going on?"
"Martial Uncle Zhao, everything died?"
The four disciples of the Primal Chaos Sect looked anxious as they helped Zhao Jing up, treated his injuries, and infused their True Qi into him. The information that came out of Zhao Jing's mouth left the four of them in shock, grief, and despair.
The Hun Yuan Sect was besieged by several rival sects in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, and there were also traitors inside and outside. In one day, the entire Hun Yuan Sect was completely destroyed. Zhao Jing was the only one who escaped, and he was also seriously injured. He managed to land successfully and found the hook-nosed man and the other three in the Tomb of the God of Sin.
"Now you are the last successors of the Hun Yuan Sect. You must … must take revenge and restore the sect … sect … This … This is the immortal-seeking map. Take it …" Zhao Jing was too seriously injured to survive. He said intermittently and stuffed an oval jade plate into the hands of the hook-nosed man. With the last strength of his life, he exhorted, "Find … find immortals and seek protection and inheritance. You … are … the last … last hope of the Hun Yuan Sect."
With that, his head tilted to the side and he passed away.
Li Mu watched from the side. He didn't expect that such a thing would happen.
The elder of the Hun Yuan Sect in the Soldier Realm died just like that?
And then he got the immortal map just like that?
It was like someone had just stuffed a pillow into his mouth when he felt sleepy.
The fierce battle that they had imagined was completely unnecessary.
They all breathed a sigh of relief.
The hook-nosed man and the other three buried Zhao Jing's body on the spot in the Tomb of the God of Sin, which could be regarded as a treasured place. After all, it was the place where immortals were buried.
"Master, the map is here." The hook-nosed man gave the oval jade plate to Li Mu with a sad face.
There was no other way.
The Hun Yuan Sect was finished, and the four of them had become stray dogs. They had no confidence. The enemies who destroyed the Hun Yuan Sect would not let them go. It seemed that they had no better choice than to continue to be Li Mu's servants.
After reading the information stored in the oval jade plate, Li Mu already knew the so-called immortal-seeking map.
"Let's go back to the Five Villages Temple."
Previously, the hook-nosed man and the others only knew that the Five Villages Temple was a place where demons were slaughtered and there were magic fruits. This was actually part of the information on the immortal-seeking map. The major sects had given the map to the disciples who had arrived earlier in order to compete for the magic fruits in the Five Villages Temple.
Probably these disciples who had arrived earlier did not know the real value of the ginseng fruit. They just understood that this kind of magic fruit was very important. They were just following orders to compete for it. Even if someone ate the magic fruit, their flesh and blood could still be used. That was why the future generations of the major sects planned to dismember Ming Yue and the others.
In fact, in the complete immortal-seeking map, the ginseng fruit tree was a symbolic coordinate of the place where the immortals were trapped, and it pointed to the entrance of the Immortal Path.
Therefore, they had to return to the Five Villages Temple as soon as possible.
In fact, Li Mu had guessed this before, so he used the Third Eye to search the entire Five Villages Temple. However, he found nothing, so he left. Now he had to turn back.
About 10 minutes later.
Li Mu and the others returned to the ginseng fruit tree in the backyard of the Five Villages Temple.
They did not meet anyone along the way.
Li Mu led the crowd to the front of the fruit tree and activated the oval jade plate. Several beams of light directly shot out from the plate and illuminated a certain node on the fruit tree. Then, something wonderful happened. Several emerald green crystal leaves fell from the fruit tree and stuck on the foreheads of those people. With a flash of light, those people disappeared from where they were.
…
"What is this place?"
Li Mu and the others only felt dizzy. When they could see again, they found that they were already in a strange world.
The ground under their feet was like stone, and the gully was winding vertically like the grain of a tree. There were strange roads that were hundreds of meters wide or tens of thousands of meters wide. They were circular and extended forward along the gully. On both sides were bottomless cliffs with majestic clouds floating around.
The roads were either long or short. On one side was a boundless cliff, and on the other side was a steep cliff. There were also forks. One main road was divided into different forks, just like the branches of a tree.
"I see … I think we should be on the ginseng fruit tree now."
Qing Feng quickly made a judgment.
One flower, one world, one tree, one bodhi.
The leaves that fell from the ginseng fruit tree just now seemed to be some kind of key to open the Secret Realm, which transmitted everyone to this ginseng fruit tree.
However, some wonderful changes had taken place.
The size ratio of people and trees had been reversed and infinitely enlarged.
It might be that the bodies of people in the Secret Realm had been shrunk countless times, like dust, or the ginseng fruit tree had been expanded countless times, like a world tree … In short, today's ginseng fruit tree was like a huge, brand-new world for Li Mu and the others.
A tree trunk that was only about as thick as a finger was now in front of them like a road that was tens of thousands of meters wide.
This shocked and amazed Li Mu and the others.
"The way to seek immortality is hidden in the grain of these leaves and branches."
Li Mu combined the Immortal Path in the oval jade plate and observed the surrounding environment. Soon, he had a realization and discovery. At this time, in their eyes, the grain of some tree trunks was like the movement of mountains, which implied the power of feng shui and was similar to the map of the Immortal Path.
Li Mu led the way in front, and the others followed.
This scene was like a few ants walking between the branches of a towering tree, which felt very wonderful. At this time, some of the grain on the trunk were like mountains and rivers in front of them.
Now, they could be sure that the so-called immortal was in the world of this ginseng fruit tree.
Moreover, along the way, they encountered a lot of ancient battlefields.
In some of the tree holes, there were traces of ancient battles. There were countless skeletons, including animal and human skeletons. There were also some strangely shaped corpses of monsters, all of which had decayed. As expected, there were all kinds of armors and weapons, but they were different from the fine Taoist instruments in the Tomb of the God of Sin. They were all tattered and their Spiritual Qi had completely disappeared. The Taoist patterns inside them were also broken and broken. They were completely worthless.
On many tree trunks and branches, there were also remnants of ancient battlefields, which were of different degrees of devastation.
Along the way, they even encountered hundreds of bodies in some of the tree-veined mountains. Their blood and qi were dried up, but their muscles were not decayed. They were like King Kong mummies. The hardness of the corpses was comparable to divine iron, and there was a faint divinity flowing in them.
This made Li Mu and the others feel shocked and frightened.
Because when these King Kong mummies were alive, they must have been big shots in the universe, far surpassing the existence of the third Soldier Realm. They were like gods, but they died here.
Compared with these existences, Li Mu and the others were really like ants crawling on the ground.
Therefore, in the cultivation realm in the universe, the first realm was called the Worm Realm, and the cultivators were not even mortals. This made sense. The martial artists who had just left the planet were as weak as insects in the universe.
Li Mu and the others were shocked again and again.
It was hard to imagine what kind of battle had taken place here so many years ago that even such a figure had died.
In such a secret realm of the giant tree world, the flow of time seemed to have slowed down. In the void outside the branches, the wind was howling, and the clouds were misty.
Along the way, Li Mu could constantly find the branch patterns that matched the immortal-seeking map.
Judging from the height, they were constantly moving towards the crown of the ginseng fruit tree.
The higher they went, the more they seemed to be walking to the Ninth Heaven. Along the way, they constantly encountered ancient battlefields and gods who had died in battle.
Later, along the way, the corpses of those dead gods were like living people. Their qi and blood were as vigorous as the ocean, and their expressions were vivid. Some were standing, some were sitting, and their postures were different. If it weren't for the fact that these bodies had lost the slightest aura of their primordial spirits, Li Mu would have thought that they were still alive.
Moreover, the bodies of these dead ancient experts were all emitting indescribably terrifying fluctuations of power. The energy vortex was like a chaotic turbulence, lingering around these corpses. The space was distorted like ripples.
Li Mu and the others could only look at them from a distance of thousands of meters. They couldn't get close at all. Otherwise, if the chaotic turbulence swept over them, Li Mu and the others would probably be turned into ashes in an instant.
The higher they went, the more dangerous it was.
The air was filled with pressure that could shatter people's bodies, and killing intent was everywhere.
Li Mu and the others realized that they would be safe only if they followed the route indicated on the map. Otherwise, if they wandered around without a map, they would have long been involved in the turbulence of killing intent and died without a burial place.
