Li Mu thought in his heart, withdrew his gaze and looked around.
He found the next foothold, performed the body-lightening skill, turned into a flash of lightning, and continued to leap.
The cliff abyss was not as narrow as the practice room in the back office. The world here was vast and unrestrained, and Li Mu could freely test the limit of the body-lightening skill of Zhenwu Boxing. He exerted strength on his feet, and he jumped thirty or forty meters in one leap, and his speed was as fast as lightning, which was even more agile than the most agile ape in the mountains.
When he leaped to the fullest place, Li Mu only felt that his blood was boiling, and his heroic spirit was bursting, as if he was flying.
Flying was the most enthusiastic dream of human beings on the earth since ancient times. Although the development of science and technology allowed human beings to take aircraft and other means of transportation, and also use paragliders, hot air balloons and so on to feel the beauty of flying, no matter what, it could not be compared with Li Mu at this time.
Li Mu felt as if he really had wings, flying between the cliff abyss.
He could not help but let out a long roar.
The roar was accompanied by the thunder-like roar of the Nine-dragons Fall, surging in the cliff abyss.
As Li Mu continued to leap, he had a deeper understanding of the body-lightening skill contained in the second style of Zhenwu Boxing and had a new understanding, and its power was also inconceivably improving.
About half an hour later, Li Mu could already reach 100 meters with each leap.
This kind of leap distance was already very terrible. On the earth, he was like a superman, who could jump to the top of a 100-meter skyscraper with a deep squat, which would definitely shock the whole world. Even on this martial arts star, this kind of body-lightening skill was probably shocking. At least so far, Li Mu had not seen a master who could reach this level of lightness skill, even a first-class master of Joint-thoughts level could not do this.
Moreover, gradually, Li Mu had been able to control the speed.
When he held his breath, he was like a feather, almost unaffected by gravity. He could float in the air as if he was riding the wind. He could also suddenly turn into a meteor, as fast as lightning, and fall down as fast as a shooting star.
Li Mu enjoyed this feeling very much.
Soaring between heaven and earth, everything seemed to be under control.
About an hour later, Li Mu reached the bottom of the abyss.
Below them was a vast, bluish-green lake.
The lake was huge and boundless. It was deep and cold. It should have been formed by the erosion of the Nine-dragons Fall for thousands of years. Under such abyss cliffs, the moonlight shone on the lake like a calm mirror, full of primitive and frightening mystery.
Li Mu didn't know whether it was an illusion or not, but when he looked at the calm lake, he felt a sense of danger that made his hair stand on end. He always felt that there was a kind of wild danger rising silently, as if there was a terrible abyss beast hiding under the calm water.
He didn't stay for long and left immediately.
The moonlight shone on the forest like water.
Li Mu shuttled through the deep mountains like a streak of black light.
After about two hours, he stopped.
"We're here."
Li Mu stood on top of a hundred-meter-high stone peak, overlooking the scene below.
In front of him, there were many mountains and dense forests.
In the ravine, there was a fork in the road. Three roads of different width and smoothness were like three white snakes in the dark mountains under the moonlight. They meandered through countless ravines and hills and converged here.
This three-way intersection had a resounding name, called Hancha Intersection.
It was the only way to Taibai County from the outside world.
No matter where the merchants and travelers came from, if they wanted to enter Taibai County, they would pass through here if they took the official road.
So if Wu Biao, the crazy "One Cut that Sends Man to Death" of Qingfeng Citadel, really wanted to avenge his son and led his cavalry to attack Taibai County, they must pass through Hancha Intersection.
Tonight, Li Mu came here to stop them.
Or it was not an exaggeration to say that it was an ambush.
"If little Qingfeng's calculation is correct, then in about two hours, the people of Qingfeng Citadel will appear in the Hancha Intersection below, then …" Li Mu took a deep breath, and in his mind, he was already thinking about how to solve this trouble.
This time, coming alone was the best solution he could think of.
To tell the truth, Li Mu was afraid of death and a little timid.
Although he had been through several fights these days, seen blood, and killed people, the previous battles were almost all crushing victories. So, it was not a special test for him. He also fully adhered to the golden advice of the old faker on Earth, "If you can win, then fight. If you can't, then run." For Li Mu, all the previous battles were just a test.
Tonight, it would be a "big test".
Because the opponent was "One Cut that Sends Man to Death", Wu Biao.
In the evaluation system of little attendant Qingfeng, Wu Biao was a very terrible existence. He had already entered the Joint-thoughts level decades ago, and he had already surpassed the category of first-class masters and could be regarded as a super-first-class master. He was much stronger than Sikong Jing, the former head of Shennong Faction, Li Bing, and Nan Wenzheng. If Nan Wenzheng was a familiar face in the northwest Wulin World of the empire, then "One Cut that Sends Man to Death" Wu Biao was a real legend.
What Li Mu achieved, Wu Biao could easily achieve.
So, there was no comparison.
If it weren't for the picture of Taibai County being breached and the blood flowing like a river and the tragic death of countless civilians, Li Mu really wanted to quit and run away. After all, if he didn't do it right, he would lose his life. Even if he didn't die, he would be seriously injured.
But the problem was that he really could not make up his mind to run away.
After all, he was a good teenager who had received the five stresses and four beauties and the core values of socialism since he was a child. Although he was a little timid, he was not completely irresponsible. In Li Mu's view, he was transmitted to this planet and became the county magistrate of Taibai County by accident. Everything in front of him was caused by him, so he should clean up his mess.
Sometimes, even if you were obviously scared to death, you had to insist on doing something.
That was human nature.
"Damn it, I don't care. If I can't win, I will run away. Anyway, I have done my best."
The county magistrate comforted himself in his heart.
Then, he chose a relatively hidden stone peak, sat under an ancient pine, began to breathe, ran the "Xiantian Skill", practiced, and adjusted the state. The "Xiantian Skill" had an extremely abnormal effect in calming the mind, relaxing the muscles and bones, and restoring strength.
Soon, he seemed to be integrated with the whole mountain rock.
…
…
Deep in the mountain, the cliff was steep, and the stone peak stood like a sword.
The name Cool Breeze Mountain sounded poetic and picturesque. But in fact, it was a notoriously dangerous place in the Taibai Mountain Range that stretched for hundreds of miles. The mountain was steep as if it had been chopped out by a god's axe. There was fog in the mountain. Although the strong wind was blowing all year round, the gray fog could not be blown away.
Qingfeng Citadel was located in the deepest part of Qingfeng Mountain.
There was only one way to Qingfeng Citadel from outside the mountain, and it needed to pass through four gaps of more than 100 meters. The terrain was easy to defend and difficult to attack. As long as the traps were set in advance, even the super-class martial arts masters would not be able to force their way in.
Clear Wind Citadel was a notorious place for hiding evil people within hundreds of miles. Some martial artists, Jianghu vagabonds, and destitute soldiers and deserters gathered here to rob houses and commit all kinds of crimes.
But after so many years, Qingfeng Citadel was not destroyed by the Empire of the Great Qin Dynasty, nor destroyed by many righteous masters who hated evil. Instead, it became more and more prosperous. In addition to the terrain, the personal strength of the old citadel owner Wu Biao was also a very important reason. Even the Taibai Sword Faction, the second to none martial arts overlord sect in the Taibai Mountain range, did not want to provoke those madmen.
Over the years, thousands of outlaws gathered in the citadel, which was so powerful that it could be regarded as a hegemon.
However, the success of Qingfeng Citadel depended on Wu Biao, the owner of the citadel, "One Cut that Sends Man to Death", supported Qingfeng Citadel with his strong personal strength. But it was also because he was just a pure martial artist with strong cultivation but short vision. In addition, the citadel's reputation was so bad that it was not recognized by the martial arts world. Otherwise, Qingfeng Citadel and Bloody-moon Faction would also have the qualification to become a ranked sect or gang.
At dusk, the smoke curled up.
In the past, at this time in Qingfeng Citadel, people must be indulging in revelry and debauchery, and the sound of demons dancing and ghosts crying and wolves howling could be heard everywhere. But today was different. Since the whistle that was sent out to inquire about the news came back and they saw the head of the citadel, a violent roar like a mating giant bear was robbed of its mate came from the hall of the Juyi Hall.
Everyone in the citadel heard it clearly that it was the angry roar of the old citadel owner.
When was the last time that the old citadel owner was so angry?
Some minions who joined the Qingfeng Citadel for no more than five years had not even experienced this kind of thing.
"Oh, the head is angry."
"The sky is falling …"
"The last time the Stronghold Master was this furious, it was because one of his most beloved concubines had eloped with the Eighth Young Master. Later on, the two of them were captured and cut by the Stronghold Master for ten days and ten nights. They were tortured to the point where they couldn't even make a sound before they finally died. The Old Stronghold Master still wasn't satisfied, so he massacred the surrounding three villages, killing until blood flowed like a river."
"Hush, keep your voice down. At this time, don't talk nonsense. If the head hears it, your head will be removed."
On the other hand, some of the more experienced minions had already begun to panic.
When Wu Biao was crazy, he would even kill his own people.
What on earth happened?
Soon, a man who was as strong as an iron tower, with muscles as if made of steel, wearing a bright red simple armor and a red heart-protecting mirror to protect the position of his heart. His red hair was not long but stood up like steel needles. His arms were almost as thick as the waist of ordinary people, and he was dragging a bright red horse-fighting broadsword of more than two meters in his hand, which was forged with blood steel. The blade was not sharpened, and it rubbed on the ground with clusters of sparks and frightening friction sounds.
