Puff …
Li Mu was halfway there when his body suddenly shook and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His aura weakened significantly.
The power of heaven and earth was triggered because of him. In the end, he could not avoid the backlash.
Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's Eighteen Yin Prison Formation helped him block most of the power of heaven and earth triggered by chanting the Tao Te Ching. Only a small part of it landed on him.
Li Mu was much stronger than when he was possessed by the Thousand Illusions Venerable. Although the backlash of the Tao Te Ching still injured him, it was not enough to make him lose his ability to move.
Li Mu looked up. The blood-red curtain had disappeared, and the eighteen light pillars were nowhere to be seen.
It seemed that even the Eighteen Yin Prison Formation could not withstand the power of heaven and earth triggered by the first two sentences of the Tao Te Ching.
After months of constant testing, Li Mu found that only the first two sentences of the Tao Te Ching, which had more than five thousand words, could trigger the power of heaven and earth.
With his Spirit Convergence cultivation, he could not even recite half a sentence under normal circumstances.
Just now, to prevent Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon from sacrificing the people of the county city, Li Mu recited the first two sentences of the Tao Te Ching for the sake of safety.
The Eighteen Yin Prison Formation, which could trap the powerhouses of Dongxuan to death, only lasted for a short moment under the powerful power of heaven and earth before it collapsed. The remaining power of the backlash also seriously injured Li Mu.
Fortunately, he had made rapid progress in the past two months. If it was two months ago, he would have died under the backlash.
In front of the State Temple, Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon looked up at the sky with a dazed expression.
The blood-red curtain of light was gone. He did not feel the aura of the eighteen ghost generals, which meant that they had been wiped out together with the formation under the immense power of heaven and earth.
His plan to reach the sixth realm had failed. Five years of hard work had turned to dust.
Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon looked up to the sky and let out a long howl. This howl was full of unwillingness and extreme resentment.
At the last moment when the formation was broken, he sensed the source of the power of heaven and earth.
It was the little constable, the one possessed by the Thousand Illusions Venerable Master!
There was no longer any fear of Honored Master Thousand Illusions in his heart. Instead, there was only a towering resentment.
"I want you dead!"
Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's body turned into a cloud of black mist and swept towards Li Mu.
Li Mu's injuries were not light. He could no longer activate the Earth-rank Spirit Strider Talisman. The Eighteen Yin Prison Great Formation had been destroyed, and he could no longer use the Mantra Dao Technique that he had just comprehended.
As the black fog closed in, he mobilized all the magic power in his body and formed a seal with one hand. Just as he was preparing to fight to the death, a white shadow suddenly flew out from the side. It picked up Li Mu and quickly fled into the distance.
Li Mu looked at Bai Yinxin who had suddenly appeared. Without hesitation, he stuck the Spirit Travel Talisman on her body and said: "Activate this talisman. He won't be able to catch up to you …"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them suddenly increased their speed.
Whoosh!
Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's face appeared in the black fog behind them. He threw out the steel fork in his hand. This object broke through the air and set off a series of sonic booms. It was even faster than the speed of the Spirit Travel Talisman.
The steel fork pierced into Bai Yinxin's shoulder from behind and collapsed into black fog. Bai Yinxin hugged Li Mu. Her body staggered and they both fell to the ground.
Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's body arrived in an instant and then suddenly stopped.
A strong and familiar pressure appeared above his head. Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon was no stranger to this pressure. His Eighteen Yin Prison Great Formation had been destroyed by this pressure.
He stared at Li Mu with a venomous gaze and gritted his teeth: "Forcefully using a Dao Technique that you can't use yet. Without the obstruction of the great formation, you will also die!"
Li Mu stood in front of Bai Yinxin and said calmly: "Take a step forward and you will also die."
Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon said in a low voice: "You are not Lord Qian Huan …"
Li Mu said indifferently: "Qian Huan is already dead. I killed him."
Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's heart churned: "Who exactly are you?"
"You won't have the chance to know."
Li Mu hugged the unconscious Bai Yinxin and retreated quickly. At the same time, a few powerful auras approached from behind.
Feeling those auras, Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon's expression changed drastically. He could no longer care about Li Mu and retreated quickly.
The Eighteen Yin Prison Great Formation had been destroyed and he had failed to advance. If he met a few enemies of the same level, he would definitely die.
A few figures landed beside Li Mu. An old man hurriedly asked: "How is the situation in the county?"
Li Mu looked at the North County Governor and said briefly: "The Eighteen Yin Prison Great Formation has been destroyed. There are no casualties among the people. Quickly chase after Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon!"
"Good boy, rest first. Wait for me to return!"
The old man heaved a sigh of relief and laughed loudly. Then, he chased after Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon.
Xuandu, Xiao Yu, and County Governor Chen did not say anything and left with the old man.
The White Demon King looked at Bai Yinxin with concern and asked: "How is Yinxin?"
Li Mu's right hand emitted a golden light and pressed it on Bai Yinxin's wound. He said: "Brother Bai, don't worry. I will take good care of her."
The White Demon King nodded at him and disappeared on the spot. He chased after Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon.
County Governor Shen stayed on the spot and said in disbelief: "How was the Eighteen Yin Prison Great Formation broken? How did you stall Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon for so long?"
Li Mu said: "Now is not the time to talk about this. There are still some vengeful spirits and evil spirits in the county. Lord Shen, you have to get rid of them quickly and stabilize the people …"
The Eighteen Nether Prison Grand Formation needed to drive all the citizens of the city to the location of the eighteen Ghost Generals. When the grand formation was activated, the blood essence and soul of those people would be extracted by the grand formation and used by King Chu Jiang, who was at the center of the formation.
Li Mu had just tricked Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon into personally killing most of the ghosts under him. There were still some ghosts left to drive the people away. The moment the Eighteen Yin Prison Great Formation was destroyed, the 18 Ghost Generals' souls were scattered. In fact, even if it was a normal sacrifice, the final outcome of these 18 Spirit Realm ghosts was no different from the people who were sacrificed.
At this moment, all the Fifth Realm experts were chasing after Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon. There needed to be someone in charge in the county.
After County Governor Shen left, Li Mu used all his mana to heal Bai Yinxin's injuries.
After the Ghost Fork that Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon transformed into injured her, it also left a large amount of Yin Ghost Qi in her body. Li Mu used all his mana to force out traces of black Qi from her body.
After a moment, Bai Yinxin's long eyelashes trembled and her eyes slowly opened.
Li Mu had already used up his last bit of mana and collapsed to the ground. Bai Yinxin helped him up and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Li Mu shook his head and asked: "How do you feel?"
Bai Yinxin supported Li Mu with one hand and covered her shoulder with the other. She said: "I'm fine. What did you say to Chu Jiang Of Gojoseon? He didn't kill you back then …"
"Let's talk about it when we get back. Don't let them worry for too long."
Bai Yinxin nodded. The two of them supported each other and stood up. They slowly walked towards the Yunyan Pavilion. Before they arrived, they saw a few figures running towards them anxiously.
Bai Yinxin silently let go of Li Mu.
Bai Tingxin's cultivation was the highest and she ran the fastest. She appeared in front of Li Mu almost instantly and jumped onto him. Just as her lips were about to land on Li Mu's face, Li Mu reached out his hand in time. She only kissed Li Mu's palm.
Bai Yinxin pulled Bai Tingxin's ear and pulled her away from Li Mu. Li Mu walked in front of Liu Hanyan and said: "I'm sorry for making you guys worry …"
Li Mu felt his chest tighten. Liu Hanyan hugged him tightly. She hugged him very hard as if she wanted to fuse their bodies together.
At this moment, Li Mu felt an emotion from Liu Hanyan for the first time.
This emotion had no color, but it was more beautiful than the most beautiful color in Li Mu's eyes.
He reached out and wiped away the tears in Liu Hanyan's eyes. He said: "Don't worry, it's fine …"
In the county city of North County, the Eighteen Yin Prison Formation was broken. The bailiffs of the county government walked onto the streets to comfort the frightened people.
Baiyun Mountain, The Ancestral Court of Fu Lu School.
Late at night, a distant bell rang, waking up countless cultivators in The Ancestral Court of Fu Lu School.
A few streams of light streaked across the sky and landed on the main peak.
A few old men with white beards and hair stood in front of the Dao Bell. They looked at each other and were speechless.
In front of the main hall of the main peak, a deep crack appeared on the Dao Bell that had been hanging there for an unknown number of years …
