Ghost Domain, Fengdu.
In a quiet room, Li Mu placed his palms on the back of the Spirit Corpse. The cold air from his palms continuously flowed into her body. Around the two of them were countless Fu-lu. The Fu-lu produced endless cold air and the entire room was covered in a layer of ice.
The poison of Xuan Ming's corpse fire was extremely overbearing. Li Mu spent several hours to help her get rid of it.
When the last trace of fire poison was removed, the Spirit Corpse's eyes suddenly opened.
Feeling that there was someone behind her, she seemed to have recalled something. Her face quickly became alert. Her body suddenly turned, and the two sharp teeth at the corner of her mouth shone with cold light. She bit towards Li Mu's neck.
Li Mu reached out and pinched her mouth in time, saying, "Don't bite, it's me …"
When she saw Li Mu, the Spirit Corpse's expression froze. Her alert expression gradually disappeared. Her rapidly growing nails also retracted. She began to look around with a confused gaze.
Until she saw Su He standing at the door of the quiet room, a trace of joy naturally appeared on her face.
Li Mu stood up, clapped his hands, and left the quiet room. He said to Su He, "You talk to her."
Since the day the Spirit Corpse was born, she had been in the underground altar. It had only been a few years since she came out. Her intelligence was about the same as a child's. Perhaps only Su He could communicate with her without hindrance.
Li Mu came outside. Ming Er and Ming San had already been captured. Although they were hooting loudly just now, they were now like ostriches with their heads lowered.
Before Li Mu came back, Ming Yi had already persuaded them.
Before the Three Elders of You and Ming submitted to the Demon Sect, they were brothers with different surnames. They had been together for dozens of years and knew each other very well. Ming Yi's action saved Li Mu a lot of effort. He ordered the two to hand over their soul blood and then began to think about something.
Due to the special geographical environment of the Ghost Domain, communication and support were extremely inconvenient. This time Li Mu happened to arrive, but the next time might not be so coincidental.
After careful consideration, he decided to move Fengdu to the edge of the Ghost Domain near Great Zhou.
In this way, if the Mysterious Underworld Race were to make a comeback, as long as the Teleportation Formation was activated, everyone would be able to provide support immediately.
After waiting for a while, Su He walked out of the hall with a Spirit Corpse that looked exactly like her. The Spirit Corpse followed closely behind her, as if treating her as its backbone.
Her spiritual intelligence was no more than ten years old. There were two identical Su He's. One was mature and charming, while the other looked somewhat silly and silly. When they walked together, the contrast was huge.
Li Mu had asked Su He about it. After they parted, the Spirit Corpse had instinctively come to the Ghost Realm, found a place rich in Yin Qi, and began to cultivate.
After that, she was captured by Xuan Ming and locked in a narrow space. When she appeared again, she was already a hostage.
At first, Li Mu couldn't figure out how Xuan Ming could find her so accurately. Later, he thought that the altar under the Bay of Clear Water was too strange. It must have been the work of the Demon Sect.
Thinking about the content recorded in the Heavenly Book, Li Mu was almost certain that this was the altar that Xuan Ming had prepared to refine the Host. By a freak combination of factors, it became the Spirit Corpse that Su He's body.
He looked at the Spirit Corpse that was standing closely behind Su He and said to Su He, "Since she's following you now, you should give her a convenient name. You're Su He, how about calling her Su Miao?"
Su He rolled her eyes and said, "What kind of name is that?"
Li Mu said, "You're He, she's Miao. You two are originally one. I think it's quite suitable …"
Before Su He could respond, the Spirit Corpse behind her murmured, "Su, Miao, my, name …"
Under Li Mu's hasty decision, Su Miao became her name.
She had a natural closeness to Su He, like she was her younger sister. Li Mu thought that he had a twin sister-in-law that wasn't very smart.
Thinking about what happened just now, he said to Su He, "There's something I need to discuss with you. I want to move Fengdu to the edge of the Ghost Domain. This way, it'll be easier to send messages and support in the future."
The enclosed environment of the Ghost Domain was indeed a big drawback. Su He nodded and said, "You decide."
Three days later, the gates of Fengdu were tightly shut. All the ghost citizens were urgently summoned back to the city. They stayed in their own residences and were not allowed to go out.
According to the guards of the Ghost Lord's Mansion, Fengdu was going to be moved. They couldn't figure out how to move such a big Fengdu.
Just as they were wondering, the ground under their feet suddenly shook at noon.
Even though the ghosts in the city were extremely curious, they had already received orders and couldn't go out to investigate.
Fengdu was shaking non-stop. If one looked from outside the city, the entire Fengdu had been uprooted from the ground and was floating a thousand feet high.
A giant bell enveloped the city, and there were several formations carved into the city. Within each formation, there was a figure sitting inside.
Li Mu sat cross-legged in the largest array. For the relocation of Fengdu, he had captured all the Seventh Realm experts of the Ghost Domain.
The four Ghost Kings, the Three Elders of You and Ming, the ghost servants, and Li Mu — nine Seventh Realm experts — worked together to cast spells and easily uprooted Fengdu. Under the protection of the Dao bell, they slowly moved towards the east.
The space of the Ghost Domain wasn't stable, so Fengdu couldn't move too quickly. The nine people used seven days to move Fengdu to the new location.
Li Mu had already ordered the Sixth Realm ghost cultivators under Su He to empty the mountains there and create a plain to place Fengdu.
Then, he also moved the transportation array over.
Now, even if the Three Patriarchs of the Demon Sect came personally, the Ghost Domain would be safe.
After everything was settled, Li Mu summoned the Three Elders of You and Ming.
"Greetings, Lord!"
After being persuaded by Ming Yi for a few days, Ming Er and Ming San were much more well-behaved. After entering the hall, they respectfully bowed to Li Mu.
After all, their lives were in his hands, so they had to be respectful.
Li Mu crossed his arms and looked down at Ming Er and Ming San. He said, "Tell me everything you know about the Demon Sect."
All along, the Demon Sect had been powerful and mysterious in everyone's eyes.
Until now, Li Mu didn't know much about the Demon Sect. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy could you win every battle. The enmity between him, Xuan Ming, and the Demon Sect couldn't be resolved. The more information he knew, the more advantageous it would be for him.
Ming Er looked up at Li Mu and said, "The Sage Sect …"
"Ahem!" Ming Yi coughed loudly. Ming Er immediately changed his words. "The Demon Sect's influence is spread across the Ten Continents. What I know is only the Zu Continent …"
At Li Mu's request, Ming Er and Ming San told him everything they knew.
During this time, the Third Elder had entrusted them with important tasks, so they knew more than Ming Yi. After hearing everything, Li Mu's heart sank.
The Demon Sect had three headquarters on the mainland. The Ghost Island in the depths of the South Sea was controlled by the Third Elder, who was at the Eighth Realm.
The other two headquarters of the Demon Sect were in Yanzhou and Juku.
Everyone knew that there were Ten Continents in the world, as well as the Three Islands that only existed in legends. Among the Ten Continents, not all of them were as powerful as the Zu Continent.
Changzhou and Fenglin were in the southeast of the Zu Continent. Compared to the Great Zhou, they were sparsely populated and didn't have many countries.
Yingzhou was full of poisonous miasma and wasn't suitable for human habitation. Xuanzhou and Yuan were in the extreme north, so they were even more desolate.
The remaining Juku, Liu, Zu Continent, Sheng, and Yanzhou were all large continents with large populations. They were also places where the Demon Sect had been active for the past 10,000 years.
Among them, the Demon Sect's Second Elder was in charge of Yanzhou.
The Demon Sect's First Elder was in Juku.
The Ghost Island was more powerful than all the Taoist sects combined. The Demon Sect had two headquarters like the Ghost Island. This wasn't good news.
The only thing that comforted Li Mu was that the Demon Sect's ancestors weren't ranked based on who was more powerful.
Perhaps in ancient times, they were ranked based on strength. However, after so many generations, they would encounter all kinds of unexpected factors, causing them to be reborn at different times. This time, the Third Elder was the first to be reborn. He was also the strongest among the ancestors.
The Demon Sect's First Elder and Second Elder hadn't reached the Eighth Realm yet.
This could be considered good news, but it wasn't entirely so.
Combining the fragmented memories of Blood River and the words of the Three Elders of You and Ming, Li Mu knew that the Demon Sect's current strength might be at its peak in the past 10,000 years.
This didn't refer to absolute strength. After all, 10,000 years ago, there were many Ninth Realm cultivators. Just one of them would be enough to destroy the current Demon Sect.
At that time, the Demon Sect had countless powerful cultivators. Several Ninth Realm cultivators would appear at the same time. However, the cultivation world at that time was also full of powerful cultivators. The demon race, the dragon race, the ghost race, and the human race could all suppress the Demon Sect.
Now, although the Demon Sect had declined, the entire cultivation world of the continent had declined even more. If the other two Demon Sect ancestors reached the Eighth Realm, they would be invincible and sweep the continent.
It was only a matter of time before the Demon Sect's Three Elders reached the Eighth Realm.
Thinking of this, Li Mu sighed softly. He was a little worried.
