After the violent spatial fluctuations, the skeletal old man that appeared gave Li Mu an extremely dangerous feeling.
At this moment, Li Mu recalled the first time he met Tian Jizi.
Without a doubt, this skeletal old man was an Eighth Level powerhouse.
His identity was on the verge of being revealed.
The Demonic Path's Third Patriarch, You Quan.
Yuan Luo looked at Li Mu and smiled wickedly. "Do you think you're the only one who knows how to teleport?"
Before he could finish his sentence, Li Mu's figure had already faded and disappeared on the spot.
If it was only Yuan Luo, he could still deal with him. The Demonic Path's Third Patriarch, You Quan, was a true Eighth Level powerhouse. Even if Li Mu shot an arrow with all his strength, he would not be his match.
The gap between the Sixth Level and the Seventh Level could be crossed with the help of the Sun Shooting Bow.
However, when he encountered the Eighth Level You Quan, the Seventh Level, he had no other choice but to run.
After using Spatial Contraction once, he flew towards the east at full speed. As long as he reached the West Sea, he would be like a dragon entering the water. Even You Quan would not be able to catch up to him.
However, Li Mu soon felt a powerful aura rapidly approaching from behind.
Although the Demonic Path's Third Patriarch was not as fast as Spatial Contraction, he was still much faster than Li Mu at full speed. He quickly caught up.
However, when the distance between the two was close to ten thousand feet, Li Mu took a step forward and disappeared again.
You Quan chased after him unhurriedly without any expression on his face. It was as if Li Mu was already in his hands.
Hundreds of miles ahead, Li Mu continued to run for his life.
After using Spatial Contraction twice, the magic power in his body was almost depleted. He could only fly while reciting incantations and using spiritual jades to replenish his magic power.
He did not expect to meet the Demonic Path's Second Patriarch in the Gathering Cave Continent, nor did he expect there to be a long-distance teleportation formation that connected to the Ghost Island. They did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of spiritual jades to teleport You Quan over.
They used the method that Li Mu had invented on Li Mu.
At present, Li Mu was still unable to contend against such an expert without risking his life.
Even if he and You Quan fought with their lives on the line and both sides were heavily injured, there was still Yuan Luo by his side. At that time, Li Mu would definitely be an arrow at the end of its flight and would definitely not be a match for Yuan Luo at his peak.
No matter what, leaving that place was definitely the best choice.
He used all of his magic power to increase his speed. In front of him, he could already see a blue sea. In two more breaths of time, Li Mu would be able to enter the Western Sea. At that time, even the three ancestors of the demonic path would be powerless.
However, when he was only a short distance away from the sea, a black lotus suddenly appeared on the shore in front of him.
The Evil Dao's Third Ancestor, You Quan, stood on the black lotus and calmly stared at Li Mu: "Since Tian Jizi is not here, where else can you run to today?"
With his path blocked, Li Mu did not panic. Instead, he gradually calmed down.
You Quan's words raised doubts in his heart. He looked at You Quan and asked: "What Tian Jizi?"
You Quan looked at Li Mu indifferently and said: "If it wasn't for Tian Jizi stopping me time and time again, do you think you would still be alive today?"
Li Mu was shocked. He had no idea what You Quan was talking about.
He only knew that the Evil Dao's Third Ancestor was an expert of the eighth level who could lead the demonic path to sweep through many sects on the Zu Continent. However, he had always been holed up in the South Sea Ghost Island and would not easily set foot on the Zu Continent because of a certain reason.
He did not know that it was Tian Jizi who had always been stopping You Quan.
According to You Quan, he once wanted to personally attack Li Mu but was stopped by Tian Jizi. What was Tian Jizi's purpose for doing so?
What was certain was that at that time, Li Mu and Xuanzong were like fire and water. Xuanzong's decision to cover for Qing Chengzi was also made by Tian Jizi. Why did he want to protect Li Mu?
In the past two years, Xuanzong had suffered countless losses at the hands of Li Mu and had long lost his position as the number one sect of the Righteous Dao. Not long ago, he led a group of experts to attack Xuanzong …
Right now, it was not important to figure out the reason for all this. What was important was how to escape from You Quan.
The West Sea was not far ahead, but with You Quan blocking the way, this seemingly short distance was impossible to cross. At such a distance, Li Mu did not even have time to use Earth Shrink.
The flames in You Quan's eyes kept flickering as he looked at Li Mu, trying to see if there was any panic or despair on his face. However, the result was somewhat disappointing.
Li Mu's expression was indifferent, and no emotions could be seen.
The flames in his eyes flickered as he asked, "You're not afraid?"
Li Mu asked back, "Why should I be afraid?"
You Quan's face revealed a strange expression as he said, "You still have a trump card … I'm very curious, where does your confidence come from? Is it Ao Xuan's Sun Shooting Bow?"
The Sun Shooting Bow was one of Li Mu's greatest trump cards. During Ao Xuan's era, many eighth level experts had fallen under the Sun Shooting Bow. This bow was completely capable of killing You Quan.
However, the premise was that Li Mu had Ao Xuan's cultivation at that time. With his current cultivation, he could not kill or even seriously injure You Quan with the Sun Shooting Bow.
However, his ultimate trump card had never been the Sun Shooting Bow.
It was just that Li Mu would not use that trump card unless he was truly in a desperate situation. The stronger his magic power, the greater the backlash from using that trump card. When Li Mu was in the Lower and Middle Realms, he could still barely withstand it. However, now that his cultivation had reached the seventh level, the terrifying backlash was enough to destroy Li Mu's body and soul on the spot.
When he tried to let the Empress possess him, even the Empress was frightened. The Empress's cultivation at that time was about the same as Li Mu's now.
Finally, You Quan seemed to have run out of patience and said, "Hand over the Heavenly Book and join the Sage Sect. Then, we can let bygones be bygones. Tian Jizi is not here, so you won't be as lucky as before."
"Oh, how did you know that I'm not here today?"
Just as You Quan's voice fell, an old voice suddenly came from the shore behind him.
This voice sounded familiar to Li Mu, and in You Quan's heart, it was unforgettable. He suddenly turned his head and looked at a reef by the sea.
On one of the reefs, an old man was sitting cross-legged. The old man's back was facing Li Mu and You Quan, and he was holding a fishing rod in his hand. It was unknown how long he had been sitting there.
Li Mu's attention was all on You Quan just now, so he did not notice that place. Now that he thought about it, he was shocked to find that the old man seemed to have been fishing there before he fled here.
Looking at the fish basket next to him, there were already dozens of small fish in it.
Based on the speed of ordinary people's fishing, it was not difficult to see that he had been here before Li Mu came to the Juku Continent.
He knew that he would come to the Juku Continent before Li Mu and knew that he would be hunted down by You Quan, so he came here in advance to wait for him. Was this the strongest person in Xuanzong?
The old man put down the fishing rod and released all the fish in the basket into the sea. Then, he turned around, revealing a face that Li Mu was no stranger to.
This face was full of wrinkles and brown spots, and there were only a few strands of hair on his head. He was so old that he looked like he would step into a grave the next moment.
But the appearance of such an old man made You Quan's face turn solemn, then angry. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Old Ghost Tian Jizi, don't tell me you don't have your own matters to attend to?"
Tian Jizi smiled and said, "This old man is just an idle person who should have died long ago. How could I have my own matters to attend to? I just got tired of fishing in the East Sea, so I came to the West Sea to fish. What, do you want to care about this?"
Although Tian Jizi said so, who would travel tens of thousands of miles from the East Sea to the West Sea just to fish?
You Quan's face was gloomy and terrifying as he asked, "Tian Jizi, this man has a grudge against your Xuanzong for humiliating your sect. Not long ago, he led those people to force Xuanzong. Don't tell me you forgot about that?"
Tian Jizi sighed and said, "I'm old and my memory isn't good. Is there such a thing?"
Faced with Tian Jizi who was playing dumb, You Quan didn't say anything else. At this time, more than ten rays of light appeared in the distant sky. Yuan Luo led more than ten people and quickly appeared behind You Quan.
Those people all exuded the aura of the Seventh Level, but compared to Li Mu and Tian Jizi's righteous aura, it seemed a little evil.
Tian Jizi's gaze swept across the crowd, and a look of reminiscence appeared on his face. He said, "Fellow Daoist Yuan Luo, long time no see."
When Yuan Luo saw Tian Jizi, veins popped out on his forehead. He said coldly, "Indeed, long time no see. If it weren't for you back then, I would have already stepped into the Eighth Level. Why would I need to reincarnate and cultivate again?"
Yuan Luo's words were filled with endless resentment.
At this moment, the wind and clouds in the sky reversed, and huge waves surged on the surface of the sea. Yuan Luo and You Quan's group of more than ten people faced off against Li Mu and Tian Jizi. The atmosphere was tense to the extreme …
