Before the competition between the peaks began, the two short sentences from Fulu Sect's master Xuanjizi were like throwing a huge boulder into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves.
Being accepted as a disciple by the Supreme Elder is not a shocking event. The disciples are at most a little envious.
But the fact that he was sitting to the left of the real leader of the Fu Lu Sect and was regarded as the future leader of the Fu Lu Sect was too unbelievable.
The Fulu Sect is one of the six Taoist sects. The Taoist lineage is spread all over Zuzhou and has a great influence in the spiritual world.
The selection of the leader of the Fu Lu Sect is a major event for the entire cultivation world.
After today, the name of Lingjizi of Fulu Sect will be spread throughout the world of cultivation.
After this unexpected incident came out, no one paid attention to this competition anymore. Around the square, countless eyes were on the left side of Xuan Jizi. The young man glanced back and forth, as if he wanted to see through.
What kind of ability is worthy of being so valued by the Fulu Sect?
Li Mu sat on the chair and felt the gazes coming from all directions. From being unaccustomed to it at the beginning, to now he is taking it calmly.
Xuanjizi would say these two sentences before the competition, completely beyond Li Mu's expectations.
In fact, his motivation for joining the Fu Lu Sect was impure. Whether it was for Li Qing, the Queen, or to become a fellow sect with Liu Hanyan, in short, there was no reason why he really wanted to join the Fu Lu Sect.
Not to mention becoming the leader of the Fu Lu Sect. At that time, for Li Mu, this goal was still an unrealistic dream that was impossible to achieve. It was just an excuse he used to coax the queen.
But who would have thought that just one month later, his dream would really come true.
The position of the leader of the Fu Lu Sect not only brings glory, status, but also responsibility. There are thousands of disciples in the ancestral court, and countless outer disciples. As the leader of the Fu Lu Sect, you must be responsible for them. In addition? Sect resources
The distribution of the sect? The growth and revitalization of the sect, the pressure is all placed on the leader.
Once he becomes the leader, Li Mu will not only have to worry about the Queen, but also the Fu Lu Sect.
There are endless things going on in the imperial court. Is it enough to worry about the Queen alone? It would be better for the Fu Lu Sect to leave as soon as possible.
Before the first day of the competition ended, Li Mu planned to take Wanwan and Xiaobai away.
Will Liu Hanyan come to Shendu to find him after this retreat? Wanwan is also alone here, and Li Mu is going to take her back to Shendu this time, so that she and Xiaobai can always have each other's company.
As soon as the three of them left Baiyun Peak, several figures flew out from the main peak.
Xuan Jizi looked at Li Mu and asked, "Where are you going, junior brother?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "It has been almost three months since I left the city of God? Your Majesty has urged me many times, it's time to go back. If the master leaves the seclusion, please let me know, senior brother..."
Xuanjizi nodded and said: "Junior brother, where are you going? You have to practice diligently. Whether our Fulu Sect can prosper in the future? It depends on junior brother."
Li Mu said awkwardly: "My current cultivation level is low, so I can't take on the big responsibility of the sect? In a few decades, the sect will still have to rely on all the senior brothers and sisters..."
As Li Mu finished speaking, another stream of light came flying from the main peak.
Dao Zhong became the size of a palm and flew around Li Mu, circling non-stop.
During this period, with Li Mu's help, the cracks on Dao Zhong's body have healed less than half.
Li Mu stretched out his hand, and Dao Zhong fell obediently into his palm.
Li Mu patted the clock gently and said, "I'm leaving. I'll see you again later."
The bell flew up again, buzzed a few times, and landed on his shoulder.
Li Mu shook his head and said: "You want to stay in Baiyun Mountain, you can't come with me..."
Xuanjizi thought for a while and said: "If Dao Zhong is willing to follow, junior brother, let him follow."
Li Mu looked at the Dao Zhong, his throat moved, and said: "This is not good, what will happen to Baiyun Mountain without the Dao Zhong..."
Xuanjizi said: "Don't worry, our Fu Lu Sect has not fallen to the point where we need to rely on spiritual treasures for protection. Besides, the cracks on Dao Zhong's body need to be repaired by junior disciples. Only when Dao Zhong is complete can it play its full role...
…”
Li Mumian wondered: "Okay then..."
Farewell to Xuan Jizi and several leaders, the three of them quickly flew away from Baiyun Mountain.
Xuan Zhenzi stared at the front, until their figures disappeared, and then slowly said: "It doesn't matter if you let Daozhong follow Junior Brother Lingjizi. If he encounters danger, he can be protected. But Senior Brother has really thought about it. The Master of the Fulu Sect
What you need to teach is not only the attainments of Fu Dao, nor the cultivation, but the responsibility..."
Xuanjizi smiled and said: "I've already made a bet, so I might as well make another bet..."
…
Beijun, Yangqiu County.
In the courtyard of the old house, Li Mu looked at Su He and asked, "Are you really not going to return to Shendu with me?"
Su He shook his head and said: "I've been in the same place all these years, and I'm a little tired. I don't want to be stuck in one place anymore. I want to go to other places and see other scenery. I'll wait until I get tired of it and look for it again."
You."
Twenty years have passed and she has no family or friends. Li Mu wants her to return to Shendu together so that she can have a family to return to.
But she had been trapped in Bishui Bay for twenty years and could not take a single step. She really needed to go out for a walk.
The City of Gods may seem lively, but it is actually a prison.
Once she stays there for a long time, it will be another clear water bay for her.
Li Mu looked at her and said, "Come back when you are tired from playing. There will always be a yard for you there."
After having her last hot pot meal with Su He, she gave Li Mu a hug and then drifted away with the two female ghosts, one large and one small.
Li Mu naturally hopes that Su He can stay by his side, but he also understands that after the revenge of life and death, what she needs most is actually freedom. Only complete freedom can heal the pain in her heart over the past twenty years.
trauma.
After Su He left, the three of them did not stop at the old house. Li Mu released a flying boat that Fu Daozi knocked from Xuzi, the first cave of Green Bamboo Peak, carrying Xiaobai and Wanwan, and flew towards Shendu.
This flying boat is also a heaven-level magic weapon. It is driven by spiritual power, and its maximum flying speed is comparable to that of the sixth realm.
Li Mu controlled the flying boat and was about to fly out of Beijun when he suddenly felt a warning sign in his heart.
Almost instantly, a talisman appeared in his hand. The talisman was activated by mana and turned into a golden light shield, covering the flying boat.
boom!
Several mana attacks landed on the light shield. The light shield shook violently, and the flying boat also began to shake violently.
High altitude was not suitable for fighting, so Li Mu first sent Xiaobai and Wanwan into the Hutian space, and then controlled the airship to descend rapidly.
When he landed on the ground, he put away the flying boat, and several figures appeared around him, surrounding him from several directions.
A ghostly figure looked at Li Mu and said grimly: "We have been staying here for more than two months, and we thought you were going to hide in the Fu Lu Sect for the rest of your life and never come out..."
Another strong man with a demonic aura grinned and said: "You are finally willing to leave Baiyun Mountain, let us wait for a while..."
Li Mu looked at the two figures in front of him. One of them was a monster, the other a ghost. They were obviously strong men in the fifth realm.
Not only that, the other five people beside and behind him also exuded auras that were not weaker than those in the fifth realm.
The seven fifth-level experts, the imperial court chasing Cui Ming, didn't have such a big battle.
Each of these seven people had evil spirits and strange auras. They were obviously not cultivators of the right path. Li Mu glanced at them and asked, "Are you sent by the Demon Sect?"
The fifth-level ghost said: "You do have good eyesight."
Li Mu curled his lips and said: "Seven of you in the fifth realm, working together to bully me, a fourth realm, demonic person, are you as shameless as you?"
The monster chuckled and said: "Cui Ming of the Mei Sect and Emperor Song of the Soul Sect both died in your hands. We don't want to end up like them. Compared with life, face is nothing."
Beside Li Mu, a beautiful woman said with a smile: "Little brother, you should just surrender without mercy. This time our seven sects join forces, you can't escape. Be obedient and you will suffer less torture..."
At this moment, Li Mu didn't know what happened.
There are only ten magic sects in total, and each sect is not monolithic. Some sects are even hostile to each other. This time, seven sects actually joined forces and guarded Bei County for more than two months, just to stop him...
Without Su He by his side, Li Mu could at most be tied with one of them without the help of talismans.
Seven people besieged him, and he had no chance of winning.
Li Mu looked at them and said: "It's nothing to fight seven against one. You have the ability to fight one by one..."
The ghost obviously did not intend to be fair with Li Mu, and said: "This person must have some means to kill Cui Ming and Emperor Song. If we work together, we will share the rewards equally..."
Li Mu looked at them and said angrily: "There are more people than me, right?"
When he finished speaking, a stack of talismans appeared in his hand. Li Mu threw these talismans. Eighteen talismans were suspended in the air, surrounding Li Mu and the seven people.
One after another, phantoms emerge from the talisman, and each phantom has the aura of the fifth realm.
The seven people who were originally surrounding Li Mu were surrounded by these eighteen shadows, and the situation was instantly reversed.
Eighteen phantoms emerged from the talisman and formed a formation. The expressions of the seven people suddenly changed. The ghost immediately transformed into two ghost claws and grabbed Li Mu's vitals.
There was still a talisman in Li Mu's hand. Facing the two ghost claws, Li Mu did not dodge, but just activated the talisman in his hand.
His figure disappeared on the spot, and the next time he appeared, he was outside the formation.
The Fu Lu Sect's research on talismans has reached its peak, and Fu Daozi is even more of a genius. What he is best at is the method of talisman formations. His talisman formations are no less advanced than the advanced formations of the Spirit Formation Sect.
The ghost claw failed, and before the seven people could react, the eighteen phantoms had already attacked them.
A figure held a giant sword and slashed at the inside. The ghost was hit by the giant sword. The figure immediately faded a bit and reminded loudly: "Be careful, this sword is designed to hurt the soul body of the soul!"
Another figure's magic skills changed. In the formation, dense purple thunder fell from the sky. The range of the thunder was extremely wide, covering almost all corners of the formation. The seven people could not avoid it and could only resist...
At this moment, another flame rose under their feet. This flame was no ordinary fire. It seemed that it would burn even their souls and spirits.
The seven people joined forces to defend against the thunder above their heads and the flames under their feet. In the formation, a blue wind suddenly blew up. This wind blew on the body, like cutting flesh and bones. Even the monster with a strong body could not bear it.
They couldn't help but roar in pain, and the rest of the people screamed in agony...
Li Mu stood outside the formation, folded his arms, looked at the seven people trapped in the formation, and said coldly: "Scream, even if your throat is broken by screaming, no one will come to save you..."
