Above the divine capital, there is the Nine Heavens Gangfeng layer.
Li Mu lowered his upper body and sat cross-legged in the air, letting the biting wind blow on him. After using the strong wind to hone his physical body for a while, he used his magic power to hold up a shield and continued to fly upward.
Flying past Shangguan Li, Li Mu continued upwards. A trace of dissatisfaction flashed in Shangguan Li's eyes. After moving upward with difficulty for a distance, he fell several feet under the huge pressure and returned to his original position.
Knowing that Li Mu's cultivation level was far beyond hers, she could only sit there with her legs crossed.
When Li Mu was not practicing, she had already advanced to the fifth realm with the help of the Queen. Now Li Mu is only one step away from the sixth realm, and she is still in the fifth realm.
Sighing softly in his heart, Shangguanli closed his eyes and continued to use his magic power, enduring the huge pressure brought by the strong wind.
Li Mu floated a few feet away from Shangguan, and sat down cross-legged again. This was almost the limit of what his magic power could bear. He glanced upward, and in the extreme distance, there was another figure sitting cross-legged.
After Xuanzong learned his lesson, Li Mu deeply realized his slackness.
If he could spend half of the time he usually spends playing around and flirting in practice, he might not be so passive when encountering similar things again.
Not only did Li Mu become diligent, he also took the Queen to practice together.
He spends an hour refining his body, refining his magic power for an hour, and practicing painting for an hour. In addition, he adds writing talismans and handles political affairs. He spends six hours a day with the queen.
In the remaining six hours, apart from sleeping, I spent time with my family and learning dragon language with Rong Xin.
Strictly speaking, sleeping also belongs to cultivation. The speed of dual cultivation, especially the speed of Li Mu and Liu Hanyan's dual cultivation, is far faster than that of Daoyin Qi training.
Unfortunately, Li Mu's cultivation seemed to have encountered a bottleneck. No matter how hard he tried, there was no hope of a breakthrough.
From Creation to Dongxuan is the first natural chasm on the road to practice. In addition to practicing hard, it also depends on chance to a certain extent. When the opportunity comes, once you break through, if you don't get the opportunity, you may be trapped for the rest of your life.
In addition to breaking through the situation, there is another problem facing Li Mu at this moment.
Outside the divine capital, the largest practice market in Zuzhou is being quickly built. When the time comes, thousands of practitioners from all over Zuzhou will come to receive the talismans. When the market is built, there will be no shortage of guests.
What is lacking are merchants.
A large market that can accommodate hundreds of shops cannot only have one Fulu Pavilion. The imperial court needs to recruit heavyweight merchants to settle in, such as the Danding Sect, the Lingzhen Sect, the Southern Sect, the Northern Sect, etc.
If we can get the support of these four sects, we won't have to worry about the market's future customer base.
The problem is that by doing this, the Great Zhou Dynasty was obviously acting as an enemy to Xuanzong. The Fu Lu Sect and Xuanzong were at odds with each other, but the other sects were not. In the end, the Dao Sect was one family, and it was impossible for them to help outsiders deal with it just for some benefit.
For his own family, even if the court takes 20% less of their income than Xuanzong does.
If these four sects cannot be convinced, then the city that is about to be built as the capital of the gods will be a joke.
Li Mu did not have any connections with these four sects, nor did he have such great reputation, so he could only place his hope in Xuan Jizi. For this reason, Li Mu personally returned to Baiyun Mountain to discuss the matter with him.
After listening to Li Mu's words, Yu Zhenzi shook his head and said: "This is difficult. The other four sects have no grudges against Xuanzong. Dazhou and Xuanzong are tit for tat. They will not help outsiders to offend their fellow sects. In addition to being closer to the Danding sect, we
He does not have a deep friendship with the other sects, but Xuanzong has many contacts with them."
Li Mula had anticipated this situation before coming, and could only say: "Let's convince one of them first."
The relationship between the Fulu Sect and the Danding Sect is indeed closer. Back in Xuanzong, Li Mu had a very happy chat with Senior Sister Yuyangzi of the Danding Sect. The Fulu Sect even wrote a secret talisman for the Danding Sect, and even Danding
Li Mu has understood the Heavenly Book of Pai.
Xuanjizi thought for a moment and said, "Junior sister, please contact Senior Sister Wuchen."
Yu Zhenzi looked at him with a strange look, but did not say anything, and left the Taoist palace here. Li Mu knew that the Six Sects had a special magical weapon that could transmit projections over long distances. The Six Sects often used this method to perform
Important meeting.
Not long after Yu Zhenzi left, he came back and said to Xuan Jizi: "Senior Sister Wuchen said that if we want to discuss this matter, I want you to go to the Danding Sect in person."
Xuan Jizi said flatly: "Nonsense, if a leader of a sect can leave the sect at will, I would have gone to Xuanzong with you last time. You can go to the Alchemy Sect for me..."
Yu Zhenzi shook his head and said: "Senior Sister made it very clear that if you don't go to the Danding Sect in person, there is no possibility of discussing this matter."
Li Mu instinctively felt that there was something hidden in this. Xuanjizi seemed to be resisting going to the Danding Sect. Before he asked, the Supreme Elder of Tianyangzi came in from outside and said to Xuanjizi: "Go ahead. It used to be
We two old guys are not here, and now that we two old guys are back, even if you leave the sect for a year and a half, nothing will happen."
Xuan Jizi wanted to say something else, but the Supreme Elder continued: "Fu Lu Sect and Xuan Zong have reached this stage today. As the leader, you should also think more about the sect."
Xuanjizi was silent for a moment, sighed and said, "Disciple understands."
Li Mu had never seen Xuan Jizi like this. Seeing him leave with a lot of worries, Li Mu felt suspicious and asked Yu Zhenzi, "Senior brother, what's wrong with him?"
Yu Zhenzi shook his head and said helplessly: "Because Senior Sister Yu Yangzi of the Danding Sect likes Senior Brother, and Senior Brother only wants to revitalize the sect and does not want to be burdened by the affair of his children. Senior Sister Yu Yangzi is extremely talented, but because of this incident
I can never escape my worries..."
Only then did Li Mu understand why when he had a conflict with Xuanzong, Xuanjizi got the news from Yuyangzi.
However, there is one thing to say, the personal relationship between children will indeed affect the practice and the revitalization of the sect. If you only talk about love every day, there will be no time to practice and no time to plan the future of the sect. No one knows this better than Li Mu.
Being immersed in gentleness all day long will greatly breed your own inertia.
The Danding Sect may want to help the two become a couple. Li Mu doesn't know whether Xuanjizi doesn't like Yuyangzi or is worried about the sect. If it's the former, then Li Mu doesn't want him to sacrifice for the sect.
Love cannot be forced. After all, Xuan Jizi is not a lustful person like Li Mu. It would be too cruel to force him to spend his life with a woman he doesn't like.
Li Mu walked out of the Taoist palace and saw Xuanjizi standing alone on the edge of the cliff in the distance. His Taoist robes rustled in the mountain wind, making this figure from behind look particularly lonely.
Li Mu walked to the edge of the cliff and said, "About Senior Sister Yuyangzi, what do you think?"
Xuanjizi said in a deep voice: "Master handed over the Fulu Sect to me before Shouyuan died. What I carry is not the personal relationship between my children, but the rise and fall of the sect. As the leader, I must be worthy of the responsibilities on my shoulders.
Master’s dying instructions are worthy of the ancestors of the Fulu Sect and can revitalize the sect..."
Standing together with Xuan Jizi, Li Mu suddenly felt a little ashamed.
He is also a disciple of the Fu Lu Sect and the future leader, but he does not have the same sense of responsibility and mission as Xuan Jizi. He has never actively thought about doing anything for the Fu Lu Sect, strengthening the sect, fulfilling the last wishes of his ancestors, and making the Fu Lu Sect into a great place.
The largest sect of Taoism...
This is obviously not too difficult for him who has countless resources at his disposal.
Li Mu took a deep breath, firmed up a certain belief in his heart, looked at Xuan Jizi, and said: "Senior brother, if you trust me, just hand over the sect to me. I will do my best to revitalize the Fu Lu Sect..."
Xuanjizi suddenly turned around, strode towards the Taoist palace in the rear, and said, "Senior brother, change your clothes and prepare yourself. Go to the Danding Sect, immediately, immediately!"
Li Mu stood in the mountain breeze, looking at Xuan Jizi's back as he strode away, his expression a little messy.
