1394. Reaching the Pinnacle

powerful.

Really strong.

Taoist Master Taishi's strength gave Li Mu a feeling of suffocation.

From the beginning of this battle, Li Mu was suppressed.

Li Mu has always been proud of his sword skills.

After thousands of hard work, it is perfect.

But Taishi Taoist Master's sword technique is more terrifying than Li Mu's sword technique.

Abandoning the fancy magical powers and combat skills that ordinary immortals use when fighting, Taoist Taoist Taishi's sword skills return to the true way and return to the original nature. The moves and movements are ordinary, but there is great power in every gesture. The sword can be moved at will, and the way can be controlled by the mind. , with a single stroke, it has the terrifying power to turn decay into magic.

Li Mu was knocked out again and again.

"Is this the power possessed by the culprit who disrupted the fairy world in the past?"

The more Li Mu fought, the more frightened he became.

Moreover, he knew it very well.

The Taoist Taoist Master in front of him is just a simulated image.

It may not even be one-tenth of the strength of the real Taishi Taoist Master.

Even a simulated image is so scary.

How terrifying would Taishi Taoist Lord be?

At this time, if I were to face Taoist Taoist Master Taishi, I might not be able to hold on for even a moment. The other party could kill me instantly with just one look, right?

fighting.

Keep fighting.

Li Mu was completely suppressed.

Scars appeared one after another on Li Mu's body.

Tick ​​tock.

Blood is flowing.

Can't seal it.

Can't stand it.

For one thing, Taishi Taoist Master's cultivation was too strong. In many cases, he could directly defeat Li Mu's theoretically flawless defense with force.

Secondly, Taishi Taoist Master's sword skills were too brilliant. Even with Li Mu's understanding of sword skills, he could not keep up with his opponent's rhythm.

I don’t know how much time passed.

Sudden--

Zizzi!

In the void, flickering snowflakes suddenly appeared like a TV screen.

Li Mu suddenly felt something was wrong and quickly retreated.

Then the world changes instantly.

Extremely weird.

It was as if someone suddenly pressed the high-speed back button.

Back in time and space.

The entire trial space instantly returned to the scene when Li Mugang entered.

Then, everything works fine.

The surrounding beautiful mountains and rivers are full of mountains, waterfalls, and rare birds and animals.

The buildings and heaven and earth that were destroyed during the previous battle between Li Mu and Taoist Taishi returned to normal.

Taoist Taoist Master Taishi also transformed into the sculpture again, standing on the square in front of Fushan Mountain, motionless and lifelike.

A hint of joy flashed in Li Mu's eyes.

The bet was right.

You guessed it right.

Like the previous Stone Pillar dungeon space, when the challenger persists to a certain time point, due to insufficient energy supply in the dungeon space, the transformed BOSS must be restored to its original state for energy supply.

Just like the faceless white-clothed immortal saint sword cultivator back then.

Taoist Master Taishi has a stronger cultivation level. If he wants to simulate it, the energy of heaven and earth required every minute and every second is so terrifying. Even the stone pillar trial space of the Temple of War is unbearable. It is like making a super special effects blockbuster. Then Every frame and every second requires a lot of money to burn.

Therefore, this battle ended suddenly even earlier than any previous trial space.

"Huhuhu..."

Li Mu stuck out his tongue and gasped for air.

tired.

Thieves are tired.

He did not dare to neglect at all, and immediately took the time to adjust his breath and recover.

At this time, I will not hold back at all and directly take out the super divine grade fairy crystal to absorb it.

Pure energy, containing power that is almost complete with the attributes of heaven and earth in the fairy world, surged out of the fairy crystal and entered Li Mu's body.

"What a perfect power."

Li Mu was ecstatic.

After about one stick of incense and absorbing about three super-grade immortal crystals, the saint-level immortal energy consumed in Li Mu's body was finally made up for and returned to its peak state.

Good luck again.

His physical injuries have also completely recovered.

At this time, in the Fushan Square in the distance, the sculpture of Taoist Master Taishi emitted bursts of crystal light, and soon the stone layer on its surface fell off.

really.

Taoist Taishi was resurrected again.

Li Mu's black hair was flying, with two swords in hand, he rushed forward again.

Fight.

The blood in Li Mu's chest was burning.

He has never faced such a powerful opponent.

Fight.

"Ahhhhh..."

Li Mu shouted wildly, as if he was crazy.

An hour later.

Blood dyed the sky red.

There are more cracks on the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword.

Li Mu was like a fish that had been chopped into pieces by a thousand knives, covered in scars.

At the same time, that kind of time-space rewind-like scene appeared again.

Another cycle of repetition.

Everything is restored as before.

Li Mu gasped for air, and then raced against time to restore his cultivation.

Then, continue.

continue.

Continue again.

This back-and-forth battle took place ten times.

After Li Mu recovered for the tenth time, the saint-level immortal essence in his body finally broke through the shackles of a small realm and entered the intermediate level of immortal saint.

Strength soared.

And in this almost crazy battle, Li Mu raised his limits again and again.

Unknowingly, I deepened my understanding of the way of the sword.

Taoist Taoist Taoist Taoist Taoist Master Taoist Dao's swordsmanship inspired Li Mu too much.

boom!

The stone statue of Taoist Taoist Master Taishi once again fell into pieces.

The battle begins again.

Boom boom boom!

The collision of sword paths.

Li Mu felt the change.

The pressure that was so ubiquitous before that he was almost breathless was significantly relieved during this battle.

However, they are still at a disadvantage.

Boom boom boom!

Fight like crazy.

When waiting for the eleventh trial space to return to its original state, Li Mu's injuries were much less than before.

Recover, adjust the breath, realize.

Then, the statue of Taoist Master Taishi came to life again.

Then, fight again.

Then, continue to recover, adjust your breath, and understand.

And so on.

Even Li Mu couldn't remember how many times this cycle had been repeated.

Finally, Li Mu's level improved again.

High level Immortal Saint.

Three hundred super-grade immortal crystals have been consumed.

This level of consumption is somewhat shocking.

It's just a waste of money.

But the effect is also obvious.

In this realm, Li Mu can already fight head-on with Taishi Taoist Master. He is no longer completely suppressed and has room to counterattack. He can always attack one of the ten moves in the battle.

However, there is still a long way to go to defeat Taoist Taishi within the fighting time.

time flies.

Countless battles.

Li Mu left less than one hundred and fifty yuan of the super-grade immortal crystal that he left for himself.

Finally, after countless battles, Li Mu's realm was promoted to the peak of the Immortal Saint.

But at this time, when encountering Taoist Master Taishi again, he can counterattack three times out of ten moves.

"The simulated cultivation level of Taoist Taoist Master in this copy space is probably at Immortal Saint Dzogchen."

"His aura is still at the Immortal Saint level, not above the Immortal Saint level."

"That's a little weird."

Li Mu made a judgment and frowned slightly.

Elementary, intermediate, advanced, Dzogchen.

This is the small realm that immortal cultivators need to go through after entering the Immortal Emperor.

With Li Mu's fighting power, he could already kill the Immortal Saint when the Immortal Emperor was at his peak.

Logically speaking, after he reaches the peak of the Immortal Saint high-level, he can become invincible in the Immortal Saint realm and can kill all Immortal Saint-level beings.

Facing Immortal Saint Dzogchen Taoist Taishi, Li Mu's cultivation and combat power at this time should be able to kill him instantly.

But when the battle started again, he was just on a par with Taoist Taoist Master Taishi.

In the end, after all the energy of Taoist Taishi was consumed, everything returned to its original state.

There were no wounds on Li Mu's body.

This is undoubtedly a huge improvement.

One thing is worth noting.

At the beginning, the time required for Taoist Taishi to transform into a stone statue and resurrect to fight was about one stick of incense, but now, this time has been extended to an hour.

Li Mu had more time to recover.

There is also more time to understand the way of the sword, reflect on combat, and refine and improve your own way of the sword.

Finally, ten days and ten nights passed in the copy space.

This day.

"kill."

Li Mu shouted angrily.

The long knife passed through the void, like a flash of light.

call out!

The blade cut through Taoist Taoist Taishi's body.

Click.

The long knife, which looked like the bright moon in the autumn water, was divided into two parts from the middle and separated at different levels.

A knife mark, flashing bright light, split the body of Taishi Taoist Master into two.

The trial is over.

Li Mu put away his sword and stood up.

Finally defeated Taoist Taoist Master Taishi.

And the super-grade immortal crystal on his body was completely consumed.

His cultivation realm finally reached the Great Perfection of Immortal Saint.

it's over.

The trial space of the twentieth stone pillar was finally cleared.

Li Mu breathed a long sigh of relief.

At this time——

"Nothing is over."

"Everything will come back."

"The fairy world... the fairy world..."

Taoist Taoist Master Taishi, whose body was gradually disintegrating, suddenly spoke.

Li Mu's heart trembled.

wrong.

This voice is not like the voice that the stone statue spoke at the beginning.

But a strange voice.

Full of divine and demonic oppression.

At this moment, even Li Mu, who was in the Great Perfection realm of Immortal Saint, could not contain his heartbeats.

But the voice did not finish what it wanted to express, and soon disappeared as the simulated image of Taoist Taoist Master Taishi collapsed.

"what happened?"

"This voice just now..."

Li Mu frowned and realized that things were not simple.

But there was no time to think about it. The next moment, the repulsive force of space came.

Li Mu was teleported away.

Back to the real world.

He immediately used the Divine Hidden Technique to hide his cultivation, and the aura he revealed was about the peak of the Immortal Emperor.

In the real world, exactly one day has passed.

There are two full days left before the Immortal Ancient Battlefield opens.

Li Mu was not in a hurry to enter the copy space of the last stone pillar.

Because of the battle with Taoist Master Taishi, both the Blood-Transforming Divine Sword and the Zhuxian Long Sword were damaged to varying degrees. The blades were covered with cracks and the blades were filled with soybean-sized gaps.
