The law enforcement team didn't say anything when they saw Zhang Fugui, the client, so they just said a few words and left.

……

"Fellow Taoist, rent a second-class retreat room."

"Okay, two hundred low-grade spiritual stones a day. How long do you plan to rent it, fellow Taoist?"

"One year."

"Fellow Taoist is so heroic."

In a remote but spiritual place in Xiuxian Town, a middle-aged man brought a huge poodle to a tall building and spoke to the people inside.

"Fellow Taoist, this is the key to your retreat room. It is located at No. 5, B, Dongshan."

"Ah."

The person who received the middle-aged man was a young female monk in her twenties. At this time, she handed the middle-aged man a key-like spiritual weapon with a polite face.

After the middle-aged man took the key, he went to the mountain behind the tall building without looking back.

"The hermitage room B is at the bottom of the top. Let's go."

"arrive."

In less than thirty breaths, the middle-aged man found his retreat room. As soon as he inserted the key-like spiritual weapon into an ordinary stone door, he saw the spiritual energy around him leaking out. The door slowly opened, revealing a huge space of one hundred square meters.

"Walk."

The middle-aged man shouted, and took the poodle into the stone door. Then he pressed the switch on the wall, and the door was closed again, and the word "closed guest" was displayed on the outside.

"Hey, Xiaobai, now we can practice with peace of mind for a while. I will give them a surprise after I break through the foundation building."

As soon as the middle-aged man sat down, his face quickly returned to that of someone in his early twenties, and with a wave of his hand, the poodle gray dog ​​beside him also quickly returned to his dark appearance.

Yes, this is Li Mu and his Xiaobai.

After Li Mu deceived Zhang Fugui and Zhang Fugui into having ten altars of first-class spiritual wine, he hurried home to pack his things and return to the yard.

Without even telling Susan Su Yun, she first found a secluded place, disguised herself and Xiaobai, bought some resources for cultivating immortals, and came here to retreat.

It wasn't that Li Mu was afraid of the Foundation-Building Stage monks behind Zhang Fugui, but that Li Mu wanted to break through the Foundation-Building Stage first so that he could unexpectedly increase his chances of winning.

Although Su Yun's upcoming foundation building experience is missing, it doesn't matter.

The worst thing is to study it for a while.

"Xiao Bai, the spirit gathering array here is really good. It is built directly on the spiritual veins. I feel like my whole body is full of spiritual energy now."

After Li Mu sat on the futon, he started to activate the second-level low-grade spirit gathering array here. In just a moment, the surroundings were filled with spiritual energy, which caused much more noise than when the spirit gathering array was placed in other places.

Li Mu saw that the spiritual energy was filling his whole body, so he didn't waste much. After all, activating the spirit gathering array once would consume dozens or hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones.

Cultivation is timeless, and years pass by in the blink of an eye.

"Xiao Bai, I have a hunch that I will become a great person today."

"Wang woo~"

"The previous times were accidents, but this time is different. This time I am mentally prepared."

Li Mu has been in seclusion in the retreat room for several years. In addition to daily practice, he carved some talismans and changed his face to sell them on the street.

In order not to expose his identity, he didn't even take Xiao Bai with him, and even looked at the miserable state of Zhang Fugui and Zhang Fugui.

Since Li Mu disappeared, Zhang Fugui and He Kuai went crazy after searching to no avail. I originally wanted to go find Su Yun, who had something to do with Li Mu, and find out, but it turned out that Su Yun went into seclusion to break through the foundation building period.

They didn't dare to be presumptuous when they heard this. If someone else succeeded in breaking through, they would belong to the upper class in the entire Xiuxian Town, and it would be easy to handle them.

Finally, through connections, I found a certain management member of Xiuxian Town and found out that Li Mu probably had not left.

From then on, the two of them lived in the open air, guarding the entrance to Xiuxian Town.

The two of them have become obsessed with Li Mu. Even the foundation-building senior couldn't bear it and came to persuade him several times. The two of them shook their heads firmly and stood guard at the door like homeless people, weathering the weather and never looking back.

"Brother He, you and I must hold on until this kid shows up. In the future, we will pick off his head and play it as a ball."

"Brother Zhang, that's for sure. That kid made you and I unstable. If that kid doesn't show up for a day, you and I will wait here for a day. If that kid doesn't show up for a year, you and I will wait here. One year."

This is what Li Mu heard when he "accidentally" passed by the two of them after changing his appearance.

Li Mu expressed great admiration for this and gave each of them a bottle of blended fake wine as a mark of respect.

When Li Mu left, the two of them waved and said to Li Mu, "Thank you, fellow Taoist."

But less than half an hour after Li Mu left, the two of them were rolling on the ground holding their stomachs. Only when professionals came from behind did they realize that the two men had a conflict of spiritual energy in their bodies, which caused the spiritual energy to flow around the body, causing pain in the meridians and splitting of the Dantian.

In fact, ordinary immortal cultivators cannot suffer this kind of harm, but Li Mu did not poison him, he just tried some small means by taking advantage of the mutual restraint of the five elements. So they didn't find out.

In the end, after playing tricks on the two of them several times, they became smarter. They would rather let their hair down and eat the meat of wild beasts brought back from outside for charity than take the pills given by people in Xiuxian Town.

Li Mu lost interest when he saw that the two of them had become a little shrewd, and then they did nothing but practice, draw talismans, flower spirit stones, and break through and build foundations.

It's a pity that Li Mu tried to break through several times, but failed, and even injured his body. It can only be said that it is five spiritual roots, and it is indeed difficult to break through the foundation building stage.

This time, Li Mu polished his body for another year and headed towards the foundation building stage again.

"Would you rather have the foundation-building elixir?"

With a high-pitched shout, Li Mu opened his mouth and swallowed a pill that replenished his spiritual energy, then sat cross-legged on the futon and began to break through.

In less than half an hour, Li Mu felt the opportunity for a breakthrough.

Then Li Mu quickly stuffed the last Foundation Establishment Pill into his mouth.

"Huhuhu~"

Under Xiao Bai's gaze, the moment Li Mu swallowed the Foundation Establishment Pill. A vortex of spiritual energy formed around him, and countless spiritual energy swirled around Li Mu and penetrated into Li Mu's body one after another.

"Not even close."

About half a quarter of an hour later, Li Mu had completely refined the Foundation Establishment Pill, but he felt that it was still a little short of it. However, this was the last Foundation Establishment Pill in his hand, but Li Mu did not panic and casually took it. He took out a green pill from the storage bag and swallowed it.

"The foundation is established."

As Li Mu silently chanted in his heart, the directly refined green elixir quickly replenished the spiritual energy in Li Mu's body and guided the spiritual energy in Li Mu's body to transform into mana.

After half an hour, the spiritual energy vortex slowly stopped. Li Mu opened his eyes and felt the strength in his body, knowing that he had finally broken through to the foundation building stage.
