Cultivating the Dao, Starting with Farming

"Sect Master Xu, Xuantian Sword Sect has been kind enough to tolerate me, and I appreciate your kindness." Li Mu thought for a moment and said politely.

After saying that, Li Mu moved slightly, spiritual power surged around his body, and he was obviously ready to use his escape technique to leave.

However, how could Xu Wen let him go so easily? He made seals with his hands, whispered a spell in his mouth, and quickly used a spell to capture Li Mu.

Li Mu's figure flashed and he used the Sky Splitting Technique to instantly disappear from the place, far evading Xu Wen's trapping technique.

"Sect Master Xu, what do you mean?"

Appearing several miles away, Li Mu's tone was filled with anger. Although he did not want to be an enemy of the Taiyi Sect, he would not sit still and wait for death if he was forcibly detained.

"Master Li, please forgive me for being rude. But this matter is of great importance, and I really can't let you leave like this. If you are willing to stay and conspire with my Taiyi Sect, everyone will naturally be happy; if you insist on leaving, then I can only forgive you and stay here for a while. When things turn around, I will let you go." Xu Wen's face was solemn, and his tone was both helpless and determined.

Li Mu sneered, immediately stopped talking nonsense, and summoned the sun and moon essence wheels. As the sun and moon essence wheels rotated, the yin and yang qi intertwined and gathered, forming brilliant light curtains that protected his whole body without leaking. The next moment , with the help of the power of yin and yang gathered by the sun and moon essence wheels, it turned into a stream of light and shuttled through the void. The speed was so fast that even people with profound cultivation such as Xu Wen could not catch its trajectory.

"Sect Master Xu, I respect you as the leader of our sect and don't want to get too entangled with you. But you and I have different positions. I must return to the Xuantian Sword Sect."

As Li Mu's figure disappeared, a burst of spiritual thoughts reached Xu Wen's ears.

"Ha, if you are allowed to leave like this, Mr. Xu won't have to mess around anymore." Xu Wen sneered. Before he finished speaking, his figure had turned into an afterimage, chasing after Li Mu in the direction he fled.

Xu Wen's figure was like lightning, he shuttled between the clouds, his body and cultivation were fully exposed, and he chased after him at the speed of wind and lightning.

Li Mu used the Yin and Yang Jing Wheel. This instrument contains the ultimate principle of Yin and Yang of heaven and earth. Yin and Yang were reversed and turned into a stream of light, which was hard to find. However, Xu Wen was a peak fusion monk after all, and his speed was not inferior to Li Mu's, and he could not let go.

Although Li Mu had taken the first step, he felt the pressure coming closer and closer behind him, and he couldn't help but feel secretly awe-inspiring in his heart.

"Master Li, if you are willing to stop, we can have a good talk; if you still insist on going your own way, then don't blame me, Xu Wen, for being rude." Xu Wen's voice was transmitted through spiritual thoughts and fell clearly on Li Mu's ears, With a hint of irresistible majesty.

"Since Sect Master Xu is determined to force me, then Li will learn a clever trick!" Li Mu's voice was cold and firm. He no longer held back, and poured all his spiritual power into the Sun and Moon Jing Wheel, and saw that the Jing Wheel was shining brightly. , the two qi of yin and yang condensed into the shadows of two giant dragons and phoenixes, circling and flying around him with majestic momentum.

The two sides chased and escaped, attacked and defended, and launched a thrilling contest in the vast sky. The speed of both of them reached the extreme. Wherever they passed, the clouds surged and the space trembled.

"Very well, Master Li. Don't blame Xu for being ruthless. You have offended me!"

Before Xu Wen finished speaking, spiritual power surged around his body, and the situation in the world changed. He quickly formed seals with his hands, and complex and mysterious runes jumped on his fingertips, eventually converging into a huge golden ancient bell. , suspended above his head, this ancient bell is Xu Wen's natal magic weapon "Mountain Zhenzhong", which contains the supreme power to suppress all things and determine the universe.

"Suppress!" With a low cry, the Zhenshan Bell crashed down, and its sound waves swept out like a tide. Wherever it passed, the space seemed to be solidified, and the yin and yang essence wheels surrounding Li Mu were stagnant.

Seeing this, Li Mu knew that there was no way to escape at this moment, so he put his hands together, and the sun and moon essence wheels instantly merged into one, turning into a bright moon, with yin and yang on it, shining brightly, reflecting the essence of the world.

Li Mu hummed: "The yin and yang are reversed, and the universe is recreated!"

As the words fell, the bright moon suddenly expanded, turning into a wheel of moonlight that cut through the sky, and flew towards the Zhenshan Bell.

The wheel light and the bell wave collided fiercely in the air, erupting with dazzling light and deafening roar. The clouds were shattered by this force, forming a chaotic whirlpool. The figures of Xu Wen and Li Mu were looming under the impact of this force, but neither side had the slightest intention of giving in. On the contrary, it inspired each other's fighting spirit even more.

"Master Li, you are indeed extraordinary, but today, you are destined to be unable to escape this disaster!" Xu Wen shouted coldly, and the spiritual power in his body boiled again. The Zhenshan Bell glowed brightly, and it began to slowly rotate, and every rotation drove the The surrounding space was distorted, forming tiny black holes, trying to swallow Li Mu together with the bright moon sword light.

Faced with this unprecedented crisis, Li Mu took a deep breath, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes. His cultivation in the middle stage of refining the void was forced to be exposed, and five seventh-order five-element swords flew out of his body one after another.

Five seventh-level Taoist swords are hovering in the air, each exuding its own unique color and atmosphere. The sharpness of gold, the vitality of wood, the flexibility of water, the blazing fire, and the thickness of earth. They seem to be the purest in the world. The elements are condensed and intertwined with each other to form a colorful five-element sword array.

"The five elements are unified, kill!"

Li Mu made a sword gesture with his hands and chanted softly. The five swords responded immediately. Wherever the sword pointed, the wind and clouds changed. The power of the five elements merged with each other and finally condensed into a dazzling five-colored giant sword. The giant sword not only contained the majestic power of the five elements, but also contained Li Mu's profound understanding and mastery of the five elements. Its might was strong enough to shake the mountains and rivers.

The five-colored giant sword cut through the sky, with the momentum of destroying the world, and rushed straight to the mountain-suppressing bell that was constantly rotating and swallowing everything.

With a loud "boom", the five-element giant sword slashed fiercely on the mountain-suppressing bell, which was a hundred times more intense than before. The colorful light and the golden bell wave intertwined to form a thrilling picture. The whole space was completely torn apart at this moment, and time seemed to stagnate and flow, and the whole world collapsed.

"You!"

Sensing that his life magic weapon-the mountain-suppressing bell was severely damaged, Xu Wen's face changed drastically, and he looked at Li Mu in shock at this moment.

Only then did he realize that he had hidden his cultivation. Before, he was in the late stage of the Spiritualization, but now he had become the middle stage of the Void Refining, only one major realm away from him.

Xu Wen was not surprised at all that Li Mu could take out five seventh-level Dao swords. What really shocked him was the way Li Mu controlled the five seventh-level Dao swords, which was actually driven by the Five Elements Sword Formation.

"Awesome! Master Li, it turns out that you have hidden so deeply. Others only know that you are a master of formations and weapons, but I didn't expect that your sword cultivation is also so amazing!"

Xu Wen stared at Li Mu, with a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. If such a talent could not be used by the Taiyi Sect, he would not hesitate to destroy him today.

After speaking, Xu Wen took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in his body boiled again. A deeper breath surged out of his body. That was his deep understanding of the laws of heaven and earth after many years of hard practice.

Xu Wen quickly formed seals with both hands. This time the seal method was more complicated, as if he was summoning some dormant power. As the seal was completed, the void under his feet began to tremble, and a mysterious pattern spread from the ground until it covered the entire battlefield.

"Zhentian Bell, return to your position!" Xu Wen shouted in a low voice. The Zhenshan Bell, which was originally injured by the five-colored giant sword and had a dim light, seemed to be blessed by some kind of power at this moment, and it glowed with dazzling golden light again. Its volume expanded rapidly and turned into a giant bell, hanging in the air. There was a faint sound of thunder coming from it, and its power was even greater than before.

Li Mu's consciousness was strong and his five senses were sharp. Xu Wen was ready to kill him. He immediately had the intention to retreat and recalled the five five-element swords. A trace of determination flashed in his eyes. The Yin-Yang Five Elements Sutra was frantically urged, and all the huge spiritual power was injected into the Yin-Yang Essence Wheel.

Li Mu used several things at the same time, and operated the Time and Space Wheel Sutra at the same time, condensing a large amount of time and space power, performing the Five Elements Clone Technique and the Five Elements Escape Technique, and releasing puppet substitutes from the storage compartment.

With a "swish!" sound, the Sun and Moon Wheel took Li Mu across dozens of miles in an instant. At the same time, more than a dozen figures flew out in all directions.

"Where are you running to!"

Xu Wen was stunned for a moment, and immediately controlled the Mountain-Suppressing Bell to suppress several of the 'Li Mu's'.

"Five Elements Substitute Technique, Sixth-level Puppet Body!"

Seeing the figures of several 'Master Li's' under the Mountain-Suppressing Bell turn into light and dissipate, or explode into fragments of high-level puppet materials, Xu Wen couldn't help but feel an indescribable anger and shock in his heart.

Xu Wen never expected that Li Mu's escape technique was so varied, and it was difficult to distinguish the true and false figures escaping in all directions.

Without time to think too much, Xu Wen could only do his best to find ways to catch all the escaping 'Master Li' one by one.

"Since you are good at the Five Elements clone and escape technique, I will remain unchanged in the face of change and use absolute power to seal this space!" Xu Wen had a plan in mind, and then he quickly formed seals with his hands and chanted a spell. The mountain-suppressing bell shone brightly again and expanded in size again, as if it was going to include the entire world.

"Mountain-suppressing bell, the net of heaven and earth, appear!" With Xu Wen's roar, dense golden runes appeared on the surface of the mountain-suppressing bell. These runes seemed to come alive, turning into golden chains, drilling into the ground, and then rushing out of the ground, spreading wildly around, instantly locking up those fleeing figures and the surrounding space.

Soon, one by one, the "Li Mu" was trapped by the golden chains. Those "Li Mu" figures were still struggling hard, trying to break free, but their movements were too rigid, and it was obvious that they were not the real body.

Xu Wen was furious and violently output his spiritual power, shattering the five-element substitutes and substitute puppets one by one. At this moment, he had realized that the real Li Mu had successfully escaped.

"Hmph, cunning guy, do you think you can escape from my palm like this?" Xu Wen sneered, then took back the Zhenshan Bell, urged the majestic spiritual power to fly towards the direction of Xuantian Sword Sect, ready to intercept halfway.

While Xu Wen was galloping, he urged the secret method and released his spiritual sense, as if sensing something.

Xu Wen has always been cautious in doing things and would keep a backhand. The jade slip he handed to Li Mu before was attached with a trace of his spiritual sense, which was used to prevent any accidents and facilitate positioning and tracking. Now, even if Li Mu is as cunning as a fox and uses various escape methods, he has a way to pull him out.

However, as Xu Wen chased after him, he immediately felt something was wrong. The backhand he arranged had not taken effect for a long time, and he could not sense Li Mu's whereabouts.

"What's going on? Why did my spiritual sense tracking suddenly lose its response?" Xu Wen frowned, and a bad premonition surged in his heart.

Xu Wen suddenly stopped, suspended in mid-air, closed his eyes and concentrated, and tried again to sense Li Mu's position through the spiritual sense attached to the jade slip, but the only response he got was dead silence, as if the spiritual sense had never existed.

"Impossible! My tracking secret method has never failed. Could it be..." A thought flashed through Xu Wen's mind, and his face instantly became gloomy.

"Very good, you actually cracked my tracking method! Master Li is so cunning." Xu Wen roared, and realizing this, he was furious. At the same time, he was deeply afraid of Li Mu's wisdom and methods. He knew that if he could not really capture Li Mu this time, he would become a big trouble in the future.

Xu Wen could only control the magic weapon and rush towards Xuantian Sword Sect to see if there was any chance.

At this moment, Li Mu was in the Painting World Treasure House. He summoned a fifth-level spiritual crane with the treasure house and flew towards Xuantian without panic.

"Finally got rid of it!"

Being in the Painting World Treasure House, Li Mu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He looked at the jade slip in his hand and showed a bright smile on his face.

Xu Wen's manipulation of the jade slip, with his innate magical power - identifying all spirits, could not escape, so Li Mu used the five elements substitute technique and substitute puppets to disrupt his ideas, and then erased the means and took the opportunity to escape, making it completely impossible for him to track him.

"It's really a troubled time!"

Li Mu checked the contents of the jade slip, and his face became heavy.

The two Taoist masters of Xuantian Sword Sect were trapped in the Nine Netherworld outside the domain. If they really couldn't come back, the sect would face an unprecedented crisis.

Just as Li Mu was worried and rushed to Xuantian Sword Sect, on the other side of the battlefield, with the intervention of Wanbao Pavilion, Wan Renlang's words immediately calmed down the fierce battle.

"Stop it quickly! Sect Master Xu, I'm afraid he's chasing Master Li!"

Wan Renlang looked at the five people who were fighting fiercely and gestured leisurely.

Hearing this, the five men immediately lost their will to fight. They had lost half their lives, but Xu Wen secretly took advantage of them. It was intolerable!

"Damn it! We are fighting to the death here! The guy surnamed Xu is really worse than pigs and dogs!" Gao Hong's eyes were wide open, and he was furious. He wanted to catch up with Xu Wen and kill him.

"No more fighting, no more fighting, the guy surnamed Feng, stop it!" Xin Tiansen, the leader of Xuanxiao Sect, glared at Feng Jianzhu and signaled.

Worried about Li Mu, Feng Jianzhu stopped and flew towards the sect with his sword.

Chen Jianzhu and Liu Changzai fought each other and separated. He controlled the Gengjin Dao Sword and followed Feng Jianzhu at lightning speed.

Gao Hong, Xin Tiansen and the other three followed closely. No matter what, they couldn't let Xu Wen take advantage of this and take Master Li away. (End of this chapter)
