After returning to White Emperor City, the news spread, and the people of Mount Shu in the city finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the situation was still not optimistic.
Because the Dreamy Drug in the body of Ye Hen, the Head of the Moon Dao Sect, had begun to take effect, she had become absent-minded and sometimes crazy, and her state was extremely unstable. Li Nianhao, the future leader of Li Shan, immediately diagnosed her and used the drug to make her fall into a coma to keep her alive.
Li Mu, on the other hand, was busy setting up a Soul-summoning Tactical Deployment in White Emperor City. He was ready to try to summon the souls of Ouyang Huanyu, who had been dead for several days.
The good news was that Mount Shu on the Bitter Star was originally a beautiful place. Otherwise, Li Bai, the Great Sword Whiz, would not have founded the Mount Shu Sect there. And White Emperor City was the best blessed place in Mount Shu, where Earthveins gathered. It was a natural place with good feng shui.
It took Li Mu six hours to set up the tactical deployment.
The eye of the deployment was in the Fairy Hall.
The aura was solemn. The power of the Earthveins was flowing, and strange ancient figures were flowing in the void.
Ouyang Yu, the Jade Young Master, and the others were all waiting anxiously outside the hall.
The aura coming from the Fairy Hall was inexplicably strange, as if the souls from the netherworld were whispering, or as if the ancient demons were chanting something. It was full of mystery and darkness.
Two hours later, Li Mu walked out of the hall.
"Sect Master, how is it?" Ouyang Yu anxiously greeted him with an expectant look.
Li Mu nodded and said, "Fortunately, I didn't fail you. Pavilion Master Ouyang's soul has been gathered, but he still needs to rest in the Soul-nourishing Coffin for some days to recover his divine consciousness." Li Mu took out a small jade coffin and handed it to Ouyang Yu. Then, he taught him some soul-nourishing methods.
"Thank you, Sect Master." Ouyang Yu held the small jade coffin and wept with joy.
The disciples of the Sky-overlooking Pavilion all knelt down. They were even more grateful to Li Mu, the new Sect Master. Ouyang Huanyu enjoyed great prestige in the sect. Now that he had the hope of being reborn, everyone regarded Li Mu as their benefactor.
Then, Li Mu went to the Moon Dao Sect to visit Ye Hen, the head of the Moon Dao Sect, who was in a coma.
However, Ye Hen's injury was the sequela caused by taking Dreamy, which was different from ordinary external injuries, Cultivation Method injuries, and spiritual injuries.
Therefore, although Li Mu knew a thing or two about medicine and the wood qi of the Five Emperors' Immortality Scriptures was also the power of vitality, he could do nothing about this situation.
Led by several elders of the Moon Dao Sect and Qing 'er, Ye Wuhen's maid, Li Mu came to a Green Lotus Pool and examined the body of Wu Ming, the Knife Servant who had sunk into the pool.
"He's the same as Mister Ouyang. He still has his soul and can gather it."
After some observation, Li Mu breathed a sigh of relief.
After entering the Void-breaking Realm, the life of a martial arts expert would undergo some kind of change, especially in the aspect of the soul, which would be greatly enhanced. This might have something to do with the tempering of the Divine Tribulation. Therefore, after the death of the body, the soul could still exist for a certain period of time. It was worth Li Mu's time to study it.
The Soul-gathering Deployment in the Fairy Hall was ready-made.
Li Mu brought the body of Wu Ming back to the Fairy Hall. After a round of soul summoning, he also gathered Wu Ming's three souls and seven spirits, put them into the Soul-nourishing Coffin, and handed them to Qing 'er, the maid, so that she could declare them properly. It would take some time for Wu Ming's soul to be completely condensed and recover some of his old memories and consciousness.
For the people of the Moon Dao Sect, this result couldn't be better.
After comforting the disciples of the Moon Dao Sect, Li Mu went to the Dragon King Ridge to check on Dragon the Fifth's injury.
Li Mu clearly felt that as the head of a sect, he was simply working around the clock.
Fortunately, Dragon the Fifth's injury was caused by the Sword Intent of the Sunset in the battle with Ran Guangyao, the Lord of Sunset City. This kind of injury was not a big problem for Li Mu. After some treatment, Dragon the Fifth woke up and could already get off the ground.
The disciples of the Dragon King Ridge cheered.
Little Dragon Head admired Li Mu, the new Sect Master, even more wholeheartedly.
After learning what had happened in the past few days when he was in a coma, Dragon the Fifth couldn't help sighing.
"Thanks to Sect Master coming out of closed-door training in time. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable." Mr. Shuiyue also had a lingering fear. Today, his daughter almost died in the fighting ring.
"Immediately send a proclamation to the whole sect that Sect Master has taken the throne. From now on, Duan Shuiliu will be the Sect Master of our Mount Shu. However, according to the old tradition, it's a little rushed to hold the succession ceremony now," Dragon the Fifth said with a frown.
Li Mu said, "In the face of a formidable enemy, everything should be simple. There's no need for complicated etiquette."
Dragon the Fifth nodded.
Mr. Shuiyue said, "Even so, it needs to be grand. However, there will be a big battle tomorrow …" He looked at Li Mu and said in a worried tone, "Qin Rushuang's strength has soared. It must be the work of the extraterrestrial cultivators. Now that he has been killed by Sect Master, those extraterrestrial cultivators will definitely plot again. I'm afraid that the next four battles will not be easy. Sect Master, you'd better be careful."
Dragon the Fifth nodded and said, "That's right. These extraterrestrial cultivators are the most shameless. When they dealt with the old Sect Master, they also used all kinds of tricks. They claim to be a righteous sect, but in fact, they are a bunch of thieves who can do anything."
Li Mu said with a smile, "It doesn't matter. I'll deal with it when it comes."
He entered the Void-breaking Realm with full confidence.
However, the great man had taught him that he should despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to the enemy tactically.
Therefore, before the battle, Li Mu also needed to do closed-door training to adjust his state.
In particular, since he had just entered the Void-breaking Realm, Li Mu still needed to carefully figure out how to master and use the new power.
…
…
"Great, my prey, Li Mu, has finally appeared."
In the dark hall, the girl in the black gauze was extremely excited.
She didn't make a move at the first time today because as a killer of the Black Killing Tower, she wouldn't act rashly without absolute confidence. Otherwise, she wouldn't be able to kill her opponent with one blow and would fall into a passive position.
At least in the process of Li Mu killing Tan Rushuang and destroying the West Sea Sword Sect, she had seen some clues — Li Mu's strength had become stronger again.
However, he was only in the Worm Realm.
As a Mortal Realm expert who had broken through the Life and Death Bridge, the girl in the black gauze was very confident in dealing with a martial artist in the Worm Realm.
However, Li Mu was Li Mu, a man who had created miracles in the Tomb of the God of Sin.
Out of fear of Li Mu's incredible past achievements, she decided to try and observe him again.
Anyway, Li Mu was in the open, while she was in the dark. It would be good to observe him more.
The killer's rule told her that the closer she was to success, the more patient and cautious she had to be. Falling short of success for Shan Jiuren would never happen to an experienced killer like her.
After thinking for a while, she already had a plan in mind.
Soon, except for Ran Guangyao, who had lost an arm, the heads of the other seven sects were summoned to the hall by the girl in the black gauze and began to make countermeasures for tomorrow's battle.
First of all, of course, she gave them the Red Jade Fate-shifting Elixir to help them improve their strength.
But that was not enough.
"There are still some extraterrestrial killing weapons here. At the critical moment, they can turn the tide."
The girl in the black gauze gave them some hidden weapons called the Darkest Thunder.
"Remember, there is only Duan Shuiliu in the Devil Cult of Mount Shu. You only need to exhaust him and find a chance to seriously injure him with the Darkest Thunder. Then, Mount Shu will be finished. There's no need to fight recklessly. Whoever can hurt Li Mu, I will take him as my disciple, teach him the extraterrestrial immortal methods, and bring him into the Immortal Sect."
The girl's tone was full of temptation and encouragement.
The eyes of the seven heads all lit up.
They saw the hope and opportunity to enter the Immortal Sect.
…
…
In the quiet room.
"My spiritual force feels much stronger, as if it has been liquefied. It's completely different from the previous state."
Li Mu sat cross-legged.
He carefully felt the changes in the power in his body after he entered the Void-breaking Realm.
In addition to the increase in the number of opened meridians and the primitive natural qi surging and running in some extremely hidden and unknown meridians, Li Mu gradually found that his spiritual force had changed. It was completely different from before. When it was running, it was much easier. As long as he thought about it, it could be generated at will.
"This is no longer ordinary spiritual force. If I'm not mistaken, according to the cultivation terminology of the extraterrestrial cultivators, this is the Divine Consciousness."
Li Mu was enlightened.
He had read the cultivation secret books and methods of many extraterrestrial sects, such as the Heavenly Devil Sect, the Gold Sun Sect, the Wind Sword Party, and the Tianyi Palace. In particular, he had some understanding of the division, theory, and layout of the cultivation realms above the Void-breaking Realm.
Among them, spiritual force was also divided into realms. Below the Void-breaking Realm, it was called spiritual force. Once it entered the Void-breaking Realm, it would be called Divine Consciousness.
In the extraterrestrial sects, there were some secret methods for cultivating Divine Consciousness.
Like the power of natural qi, Divine Consciousness was a kind of cultivator's power, which was completely different from the power of natural qi. Refining weapons, refining elixirs, drawing talismans, setting up tactical deployments, and so on all required the support of a strong Divine Consciousness.
In this regard, the old faker had vaguely talked about it in the past.
Li Mu comprehended the magic of Divine Consciousness and gradually became obsessed with it.
In the blink of an eye, a night passed.
When the sun shone down from the clouds in the east and dyed the whole White Emperor City bright red, Li Mu ended this short closed-door training.
Outside the quiet room.
Dragon the Fifth, Mr. Shuiyue, Little Dragon Head, Young Master of Guqin and Sword, and other experts of Mount Shu were waiting quietly and solemnly.
Today, Li Mu was the hope of the entire Mount Shu.
"Let's go."
Li Mu did not say too many words to boost the morale of the others. He directly stepped onto the divine flying shuttle.
To revitalize Mount Shu, strength was the key, not talking.
Today was the day to avenge the humiliation.
Li Mu would let the whole Bitter Star know that Mount Shu was about to rule the world again, and he would also turn the nine major sects into garbage in the dust of history. He would also let those extraterrestrial cultivators who were hiding in the dark like ghosts in the nether world have a good taste of the power of anger from Earth.
The flying shuttle broke through the air and arrived in front of the floating fighting ring in the blink of an eye.
Li Mu had also moved stones to build this fighting ring that day.
Now, he walked out of the shroud of the flying shuttle's divine light. Step by step, he stepped into the void and stepped onto the fighting ring in person.
"Duan Shuiliu, the Sect Master of Mount Shu, is here. Who's going to die?"
Li Mu looked at the layers of flying shuttles and flying ships of the nine major sects on the opposite side and said slowly.
His invincible confidence and momentum crushed over.
