Chapter 123: Communication Between People and Clocks
Because of the incredible nightmare last night, Li Mu had been worried about his psychological problems this morning.
So much so that he completely forgot that there was a bell on the main peak of Baiyun Mountain in the ancestral court of Fulu Sect that had a grudge against him.
Li Mu's enmity with this Taoist bell was purely accidental. He had no idea that this bell could sense the Taoism that first came to this world. Then because of the Tao Te Ching, he overreacted, and a deep line appeared on the bell.
Deep cracks.
But no matter what, the Dao Zhong was cracked because of him, so much so that it now hides when it sees him.
Li Mu had obviously scared it just now, and the last bell sounded wrong.
The cranes flying in the sky were stunned by the sound of the bell, and fell from the sky to the square. Their bodies kept twitching, and a large number of disciples who were having morning classes in the square were also knocked unconscious.
Li Mu knew he was in trouble and was about to run away, but the clock ran faster than him. It flew up into the clouds with a "swish" and was suspended there without daring to come down.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
On the main peak, in various Dao palaces, there are several figures rising into the sky.
Seeing the mess in the square, everyone couldn't help but be shocked.
"What happened to these cranes?"
"How come so many disciples fainted?"
"Why did Dao Zhong run away again? What happened with that sound just now? I was startled and my hands shook. It's a pity that I was about to finish drawing the talisman..."
…
The elders of the main peak floated above the square, looking at each other with confusion on their faces, until someone looked to the edge of the square, where a figure was ready to run away.
"It's him!"
"Why is he here?"
"I see……"
"It turned out to be Junior Sister Liu's Taoist companion. Why is Dao Zhong so afraid of me..."
…
Li Mu originally wanted to run away, but when he was recognized so quickly, he could only turn around and said bravely: "I really didn't mean this..."
Several elders fell from the sky, some began to treat the convulsing crane, and some began to wake up the stunned disciples. An old man with good fortune and cultivation came over, smiled at Li Mu, and said: "It doesn't matter, the Dao Zhong has changed.
This is not the first time, I know that fellow Taoist has no intention."
Buzz…
In the clouds above the square, the Taoist bell rang again, apparently to vent its dissatisfaction.
Not long after, the crane flew up into the clouds again, but did not dare to stay at Baiyun Peak and flew to the distant mountain top.
The disciples who were stunned by the sound of the bell gradually woke up, each with a blank look on their face.
"what happened?"
"Why did I suddenly faint just now?"
"It was Dao Zhong who suddenly went crazy. Look, isn't this the same person who made Dao Zhong crazy last time? He's here again..."
…
Feeling that everyone's eyes in the square were beginning to focus on him, Li Mu knew that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time. He bowed his hands to the old man and said, "I'm sorry for causing you trouble. I have something else to do, so I'll leave first..."
After saying that, he walked quickly outside the square, took off in the wind, and headed towards Baiyun Peak.
Above the white clouds, the clock swayed. After slowly falling, it seemed to sense something. It kept spinning and hovering where Li Mu had just stood.
The elders looked at its strange behavior with puzzled faces.
For thousands of years, the Dao Zhong has been very normal and has never had any problems. Why, every time that person comes to the main peak, it seems to have changed into a bell...
Baiyun Peak.
Li Mu returned to the small building at the summit, sat cross-legged on the bed, and vowed never to set foot on the main peak again.
Although Dao Zhong is afraid of him, not him, this Dao Zhong has been around since the founding of the Fulu Sect's ancestral court. It has been more than a thousand years, and it has also given birth to spiritual wisdom. This kind of magic weapon has exceeded the level of heaven.
, it can no longer even be called a magic weapon, but belongs to the category of spirits.
Even though it can't transform, if it deliberately tries to fight Li Mu, Li Mu may not be its opponent.
It's just that this clock's intelligence doesn't seem to be very high, and I haven't realized this yet.
Li Mu couldn't give it a chance to react.
After returning to Baiyun Peak and breathing a sigh of relief, Li Mu began to recall his feelings when he was distracted by killing Wanhuan Tianjun that day.
That was the first time he released the Demon-Slaying Protective Curse. Based on Li Mu's understanding of this curse, the first two moves of this curse can be cast by people with fourth-level cultivation, but the last two moves are fifth-level ones.
Supernatural powers.
Among them, the third posture is defense, and the Tai Chi diagram transformed into it can even resolve attacks in the sixth realm.
The last move seemed to focus on the Yuan Shen. The speed of the "Sword of Wisdom" was so fast that Wanhuan Tianjun was distracted and didn't even have time to react. The Yuan Shen had already been hit and collapsed.
Li Mu has not yet figured out the role of the "Tao Te Ching". The Nine-Character Mantra is mostly auxiliary. The Demon-Slaying and Protective Spell is currently the most powerful Taoist technique that Li Mu can cast.
With the blessing of the latter two moves, and with Su He by his side, he was no longer afraid of the ordinary sixth realm.
This seems to be only crossing half of the realm, but even this half of the realm cannot be crossed by 99% of fifth realm practitioners.
Li Mu sat cross-legged on the bed and continued to comprehend. Suddenly, he felt something in his heart and opened his eyes to look forward.
Outside the window, a shadow flashed past.
Li Mufei got out of bed and came outside the hospital, but saw nothing.
He pretended to turn around and go back to his room, but suddenly turned around and looked up at the sky.
A corner of the Dao Zhong was exposed in the clouds and mist above the head, and then quickly shrank back.
Li Mu was startled. Could it be that Dao Zhong finally figured out that he was no match for him and planned to come here to seek revenge?
Thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem like it. Li Mu just glanced at it and made it hide in the clouds. If it came to seek revenge, it couldn't be so cowardly.
Li Mu turned around and walked back to the room, but secretly posted a paper man on the door.
After he entered the room, he silently observed from the perspective of the paper man.
In the clouds and mist, the shadow of Dao Zhong emerged again. It first lowered its height carefully, and when it saw that Li Mu did not come out, it quickly flew to the place where Li Mu had just stood, spinning slowly...
Li Mu looked strange, wondering what the bell was doing.
He looked at the clock carefully through the paper mannequin.
This clock is about ten feet high, and it requires several people to hug it. Li Mu had never looked at it carefully before, but now when he looked closely, he discovered that there were complex runes on the clock. These runes revealed ancient simplicity and vicissitudes of life.
But quite beautiful...
However, there was a deep crack on the clock, which not only destroyed several runes, but also destroyed some of the beauty of the clock.
The culprit of this crack is Li Mu.
Regarding this matter, Li Mu was actually quite aggrieved. He just recited a few mantras, and it was not illegal to recite the mantras...
This Dao Bell seems to have a function, which is to amplify the changes in the power of heaven and earth caused by new magical powers and new Taoism over a long distance.
Li Mu cast a spell in Yangqiu County, causing changes in the power of heaven and earth. The strong men in Baiyun Mountain could not feel it, but the Dao Zhong could amplify the fluctuations------Li Mu could imagine that it was trying to amplify "
What kind of scene will it be like when the power of heaven and earth is activated by the Tao Te Ching?
Don't be like Li Mu, you don't dare to read it casually until the moment of life and death, wishing that its power would be weakened ten times or a hundred times...
This bell actually wants to be enlarged, which is more serious than Li Mu himself...
However, Dao Zhong wanted to die, so Li Mu still had a responsibility that he couldn't shirk in this matter.
He carefully observed the clock's rotation in place, and was gradually surprised to find that as it rotated, the edge of the crack on the clock body was emitting extremely weak golden light spots...
Li Mu was stunned for a moment. Is this clock repairing itself?
But why does it come here to repair itself? Is there anything around Li Mu that can help it repair itself?
Li Mu investigated carefully and didn't feel anything unusual around him.
But the spiritual sense of this clock is many times that of human beings. Maybe it can sense it, but Li Mu can't.
Li Mu walked out of the room again, and Dao Zhong immediately flew up and hid in the clouds and mist again.
Li Mu stood in the yard, looked at a cloud in the sky, and said, "You don't have to hide, I've seen you."
The Taoist bell flew out of the clouds and buzzed non-stop, no one knew what it was saying.
Although Li Mu couldn't understand its words, it was obvious that this clock understood what Li Mu meant.
Li Mu looked up at it and said, "I didn't mean what happened last time. Come down."
The Taoist bell buzzed for a while, but not only did it not come down, but it flew higher.
Li Mu thought for a while and said: "I swear by heaven, I will not do anything to you. I will just stand here and not move..."
After the Dao Zhong paused in the air for a while, it seemed that it wanted to escape directly, but it seemed that it was reluctant to part with something. After a while, it tried to descend a little, and then a little more. Seeing that Li Mu made no move, it gradually
He boldly flew to Li Mu and kept spinning around his body.
Li Mu noticed that there were more golden light spots on the cracks on the clock body. The cracks seemed to be slowly repairing and healing at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
In other words, there is indeed what Dao Zhong needs around him.
But Li Mu sensed carefully and didn't find anything missing.
It was not magic power, not mind power, nor any power in his body. After the Dao Zhong rotated for a while, the golden light spots on the cracks dispersed, and the cracks seemed to have been repaired...
Li Mubai was puzzled and simply said: "I caused the cracks on your body. I have the responsibility to help you repair it. Whatever you need, I can help you..."
Li Mu had obviously gained a little trust from Dao Zhong just now. Dao Zhong buzzed again. Although there were no specific syllables or words, Li Mu miraculously understood its meaning.
Li Mu asked in surprise: "Do you need a new magical channel technique?"
The bell was flying up and down, which was obviously a nod.
Li Mu reached out and touched the crack on Dao Zhong. This time, Dao Zhong not only did not dodge, but also rubbed his hand.
However, it was huge in size. Li Mu almost didn't get knocked down by it. He patted the clock body and said casually: "You are so big, it is inconvenient to be around me. Can you make it smaller..."
The bell buzzed, and the bell quickly shrank, eventually turning into a small bell the size of a palm, jumping up and down and circling around Li Mu.
Li Mu looked at the scene in front of him in astonishment and exclaimed: "It's really okay..."
