The Portal of Wonderland

Shi Mu was in mid-air, witnessed everything that happened below, turned around silently, and there was a gleam of crystal water in his eyes.

The next moment, his body suddenly soared into the sky, penetrated the roof in a flash, and came outside.

He stood in the air, looking at the blue sky in the distance, took a deep breath, and his expression gradually returned to calm.

Shi Mu touched his chest lightly, a place that had been blank inside seemed to have been filled in just a moment ago.

He shook his head involuntarily, and heaved a sigh of relief.

Because of his paranoia and resentment back then, he was unable to see his father for the last time. Although he seemed to have nothing to do with it afterwards, it was actually a regret hidden deep in his heart.

All this experience at this moment has finally eliminated this regret.

He looked at the world in front of him, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Perhaps, this is the purpose of the Moon God Fruit to transform into this world.

It has been almost a month since he entered this illusion, and Shi Mu gradually felt a little bored after the initial curiosity and the scene of seeing his father.

However, he tried many methods, but he couldn't get out of the illusion.

Not only that, but there is another point, he still can't stay too far away from the boy Shi Mu.

If the distance exceeds a limit, about a hundred feet or so, an invisible force will bind his body and drag him over.

There is nothing I can do about it.

It seems that this illusion is to keep following the boy himself.

Then follow along. Shi Mu muttered to himself, and flew down to the courtyard below.

Three days later, the Jin family held Father Shi's funeral.

Father Shi has made a lot of contributions to the Jin family over the years, and even created a lot of properties. Many people in the Jin family who have a good relationship with him or have a good relationship also attended the funeral.

However, according to Shi Mu's observation, not all of these people have good intentions, and many of them are trying to get their hands on the property left by Father Shi.

But Jin Yuezhen tried her best to put all those properties under the name of the young Shi Mu, which made the young Shi Mu's prejudice against the aunt he met for the first time a lot less.

...

three months later.

In a manor on the outskirts of Fengcheng, there was a sound of weapons breaking through the air.

On the martial arts field somewhere in the manor, the young man Shi Mu is facing the rising sun, waving a blue steel knife, and the shadows of the swords are shining around him, emitting a cold light, with the sound of cranes and winds.

Suddenly, the boy Shi Mu narrowed his eyes and shot two cold lights. His figure flickered and he passed several erected scarecrows beside him.

Chachacha!

In a row of scarecrows, the heads of six scarecrows flew up into the sky at the same time and fell to the side.

One breath and six cuts! Brother Mu, your wind and thunder saber technique is almost complete! A girl in a yellow shirt with bright eyes appeared beside her at some point, clapping her hands and saying.

The boy Shi Mu put away his knife and stood, looking at the bright-eyed girl with a bright smile on his face.

Yuhuan, why do you come to my place when you have time?

Come and see you, in half a year it will be the Kaiyuan Martial Academy's admissions assessment, you don't want to fail. Shi Yuhuan said with a grin.

Don't worry. The boy Shi Mu smiled confidently.

In the past three months, Aunt Zhen provided him with many precious medicinal materials for body refining, and invited martial arts masters to guide him in cultivation. At this moment, he has reached the peak of the eighth level of body tempering.

In another half a year, he is sure to reach the tenth floor of Body Tempering, and it will not be a problem to be admitted to the Kaiyuan Martial Academy.

So confident? Well then, let's have a try and see the sword! Shi Yuhuan raised her eyebrows and pulled her arms. A long sword radiating blue light appeared in her hand.

With a flash of sword light, he stabbed towards the young man Shi Mu swiftly, pulling out a bright beam of light in mid-air.

The boy Shi Mu's expression was serious, and he swung his saber to meet him, and the two of them fought together.

In mid-air, Shi Mu quietly looked at the two below, with mixed feelings in his heart.

...

After half a year.

On a bluestone high platform in the Kaiyuan Martial Academy, two figures fought fiercely together, time-sharing and time-joining.

Both of them moved extremely fast, creating dazzling afterimages, and the sound of weapons colliding could be heard from time to time.

One of the two was a young man in green robes, and it was the young man Shi Mu.

The man held a long knife, and transformed into a series of knife lights, which were extremely fast and fierce. It was the set of wind and thunder knife technique, but the power was much greater than half a year ago.

The light of the knife enveloped the range of several feet in front of him, really like a series of bright lightning bolts.

His opponent was a dull-looking young man, wearing Kaiyuan Wuyuan costumes, holding a long sword and displaying a sword technique.

This sword technique is gentle and dense, like a gentle wind and drizzle, the sword light is not far from three feet in front of him, it seems to be slow, but it easily catches all the sword techniques of the young Shi Mu.

There were quite a few people standing near the high platform, most of them were teenagers. Shi Yuhuan was among them, looking at the two people on the platform with a trace of nervousness in his eyes.

On the other side of the stone platform, there were several middle-aged men wearing the costumes of the Kaiyuan Martial Academy, and they also looked at the two people on the high platform.

The boy Shi Mu continued to attack for a while, but it had no effect at all, and there was a hint of anxiety on his face.

He let out a low cry, his arms suddenly became blurred, and eight bright sword shadows emerged, slashing towards the opposite youth.

Hey! One breath and eight cuts! A middle-aged man with slender eyes and a light beard under the stage let out a light gasp.

Several other middle-aged men looked at each other and nodded.

On the ring, the young man's eyes froze, and with a movement of his wrist, the long sword in his hand transformed into eight sword shadows, and he went up to meet him.

Boom boom boom!

A series of muffled sounds, the shadows of swords and swords dissipated at the same time.

The young man Shi Mu's body was shaken, and he stepped back a few steps before standing still.

The young man on the opposite side was calm and relaxed, and he didn't even shake his body.

Ding! A crisp bell sounded.

stop!

The two stopped immediately and stepped back.

The boy Shi Mu showed a little nervousness on his face, and looked at the middle-aged men in the audience.

Pass the assessment. Those people discussed in low voices, and one of them spoke.

A look of excitement suddenly appeared on the face of the young Shi Mu, and Shi Yuhuan in the audience was also beaming with joy.

Outside the crowd not far away, Shi Mu stood in front of a thick stone pillar, quietly watching everything in front of him.

The self that I am most familiar with seems to gradually become a little strange.

...

Ten years later.

In the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom, a group of warriors wearing thick black armor rode on pure black horses, passing slowly along a street.

These people have tough expressions and stern eyes. They are obviously battle-tested tiger and wolf soldiers.

The one at the front is a tall man, wearing a black dragon-shaped battle armor, and a steel helmet on his head, covering half of his face, so he can't see his face clearly, but he doesn't feel very old, he seems to be a young man.

A pitch-black magic dragon saber hangs from his waist. The blade is half as long as an ordinary saber, and the handle is in the shape of a dragon's head. Although it is not out of its sheath, it exudes a murderous aura.

It's the Black Dragon Guard!

I heard that they came out of Beijing this time to wipe out the Black Wind League, a bandit gang entrenched in Qilian Mountains. It seems that they returned with a big victory!

Of course, the leader of the Black Dragon Guard is the youngest warrior protecting the country of our Great Qi Kingdom, Master Shi Mu of the 'Devil Dragon Saber', a first-rank general granted by the emperor, how can the little Black Wind Alliance be an opponent?

The people nearby were talking a lot, and they all looked at the young man in black armor at the front, their eyes were full of reverence and longing.

The black-armoured young man drove forward with a blank expression on his face.

A group of people soon came to a mansion. There was a plaque hanging on the mansion with the words Shifu written on it.

The black-armored youth dismounted from his horse, took off the armor on his head, and revealed a resolute face. It was Shi Mu.

Yu Yong, take the Black Dragon Guard with you to the headquarters, and you will report to the Ministry of War. He said to a bald man in black armor beside him.

Yes, my lord. The bald man quickly agreed.

Shi Mu turned and walked towards the mansion, first went to the side hall to take off his armor, changed into a loose warrior robe, and came to the inner hall.

Husband! A beautiful figure in a green shirt rushed over and threw herself into Shi Mu's arms.

With a hearty smile on Shi Mu's face, he opened his arms and hugged Cuishan Qianying, and twirled it twice before putting it down.

The servants in the mansion consciously avoided it.

Qianying is a woman in a green shirt, a rare beauty, and what is even more rare is that there is a heroic spirit in her eyebrows that is rarely seen among women.

In broad daylight, you are too affectionate. Sister-in-law Zi'er, you are the royal lady appointed by the imperial court. You must behave in accordance with etiquette, how can you be so casual. A pleasant voice with a bit of jokes sounded.

A woman in light yellow clothes came from the side hall, she looked to be in her early twenties, she was quite beautiful, she was Shi Yuhuan.

Yuhuan, you're here too. Shi Mu put down the woman in the green shirt and nodded to Shi Yuhuan.

Why, aren't you welcome? Shi Yuhuan said with one hand on her hip, pretending to be angry.

How dare I, you are an inner disciple of the Xuanwu Sect now, even if our Emperor Daqi sees you, you should be polite, let alone me, a little general. Shi Mu said in this way, but his expression was different. With a smile.

Shi Yuhuan gave Shi Mu a supercilious look.

Okay, you brothers and sisters, don't patronize bickering. Husband, you must be tired after driving for a day. I will ask my servants to boil some hot water for you. Take a bath first to relieve fatigue. Zi'er said carefully , and walked outside.

Shi Mu looked at the figure of his lovely wife, a trace of satisfaction flashed in his eyes.

Aren't you in Xuanwuzong? Why did you come to the capital? He sat down and looked at his sister.

Oh, I've accepted a mission from the sect, so come and have a look. Shi Yuhuan also sat down, putting away his laughing expression.

Hey, your cultivation base has made a lot of progress, and you have reached the peak of the day after tomorrow. It seems that you will be able to open the Qi palace and advance to the innate level in a short time. Xuanwuzong has rich resources, and it really deserves its reputation. Shi Mu looked at his sister up and down, slightly said in surprise.

Brother, are you mocking me? When you first arrived at the Jin family, my strength was higher than yours, but now I'm a whole realm lower than you. Shi Yuhuan said angrily.

It was just a coincidence that I was able to advance to Xiantian at the beginning, and my follow-up was weak. My cultivation has been stagnant these years, and it will be a matter of time before you catch up. Shi Mu laughed.
