Chapter 438: Prepare for Both Situations

As time went by, the aqua blue light around Li Mu became more and more dazzling. Suddenly, his eyes opened suddenly, and he woke up from the state of enlightenment and running the skills.

"Elder Li, what did you gain from this practice?"

Sword Master Feng looked at Li Mu with some expectation in his eyes and asked with a smile.

A glimmer of light flashed in Li Mu's eyes, and he nodded and smiled gently: "I have gained a little, and I have realized the 'water state of mind, water has no fixed shape, and it is round as it is.'"

"Not bad! With this gain, this trip to the secret realm is not in vain." Sword Master Feng nodded with a smile, and then looked around the water mansion, indicating: "In this Taoist cave mansion, except for the Tianyi Divine Water, other precious spiritual objects have been taken away. I think the 'Bi Bo Taoist' has decided to use this mansion as the center of the formation here."

"Indeed, the Tianyi Divine Water is the key to the seal formation, and it must not be moved lightly." Sword Master Chen nodded and said with regret that it was rare to appear in a Taoist cave mansion, but they did not gain anything that satisfied them.

Hearing this, Li Mu was slightly stunned, and then he realized that for the two powerful combined realm masters, except for Tianyi Divine Water, the high-level spiritual herbs growing in the medicinal grass in the Taoist Cave, the one-yuan heavy water and three-yuan heavy water flowing outside the cave, and many other high-level spiritual objects and spiritual materials, all were not in their eyes.

"Elder Li, Tianyi Divine Water is the core of the seal formation, and the seal formation is the cornerstone of maintaining the peace of the entire spiritual world, which is related to the safety of the entire spiritual world. We allow this dragon to practice in this palace, but it is not allowed to enter the core of the cave and cannot have a peek at Tianyi Divine Water." Sword Master Chen remembered something, looked at Qingyue True Dragon and solemnly reminded Li Mu.

"Xiaolong understands, and will strictly abide by the rules and dare not cross the line."

After hearing the words of the two sword masters, Qingyue True Dragon hurriedly lowered his head and responded respectfully and cautiously.

Being able to practice here is a great fortune for Qingyue True Dragon. This is all thanks to Li Mu. It has self-knowledge and knows the function of the seal formation. How dare it spy on Tianyi Divine Water?

Li Mu understood the other meaning of Chen Jianzhu's words. Looking at Chen Jianzhu, Feng Jianzhu quickly responded: "Please rest assured, both sword masters, I will let Qingyue release the control of the water palace formation card to ensure that it can only move around the periphery of the cave and cannot approach the core area where Tianyi Divine Water is located."

As soon as the voice fell, Li Mu took out the water palace token and handed it to Qingyue True Dragon: "Qingyue, I will help you erase the soul mark left when refining the token and cut off the connection with the token."

"Yes!"

Qingyue True Dragon transformed into a human form, turned into a handsome young man in a green robe and responded to Li Mu.

Qingyue looked up at Li Mu, condensed the true essence in his hand, and took back the spiritual power of refining the array card and the soul branded in the core of the array card with Li Mu, completely severing the connection with the token.

A powerful spiritual power quickly wrapped around the token, and as the spiritual power surged, the runes on the token began to flicker and emit a dazzling light.

Under the gaze of the two sword masters, Qingyue waved his hand lightly, and the spiritual power wrapped around the token quickly dissipated, and a wisp of green dragon soul returned to Qingyue True Dragon. Then, the full spiritual light emitted by the token dimmed.

With the severance of the relationship with Qingyue True Dragon, the array card seemed to have suffered a heavy blow, trembling slightly, as if sighing that it had lost a suitable owner.

Seeing this scene, the serious expressions of Feng Jianzhu and Chen Jianzhu could not help but smile. This array card was of great importance. Li Mu could take the initiative to hand it over and successfully sever the connection with Qingyue True Dragon, which was enough to prove his sincerity.

"Very good, Qingyue True Dragon." Sword Master Chen was satisfied with Qingyue's performance and gestured, "You have successfully released the connection with the formation card. Next, you only need to practice peacefully outside the cave, and guard this place at the same time. Don't be careless."

Qingyue bowed deeply and expressed gratitude to the two sword masters: "Thank you for your tolerance and trust. Xiaolong will abide by the rules and live up to your expectations."

Sword Master Feng looked at Li Mu and gestured to arrange: "You go back and hand this card over to Elder Qiu. In the future, as long as you don't enter the core area of ​​'Tianyi Divine Water' and don't affect the seal formation, you can come and go freely here."

"Thank you, Sword Master!" Li Mu nodded happily, and then looked at Qingyue and gestured, "Qingyue, you go out, practice well here in the future, and advance as soon as possible."

"Yes, Qingyue can't serve you at any time, please be more careful in the future." Qingyue saluted Li Mu respectfully, and then her figure flashed, turning into a green stream of light, flying to the periphery of the cave.

Watching the Blue Moon Dragon leave, Li Mu smiled. The Blue-eyed Golden Ape - Xiao Jin, like the Blue Moon Dragon, had already been cultivating in the Extreme Golden Spirit Land. The trump card of the five spirit beasts arranging the Five Elements Formation had long been ineffective, so there was no need to keep it by his side.

Li Mu only hoped that when he was promoted to the Refining Void Stage, or a higher realm, the five beasts would continue to keep up with his pace.

"Elder Li, you have trained this demon dragon well, and it will definitely be a great help in the future." Master Chen Jian looked at Li Mu and said with some envy.

Li Mu smiled slightly and responded modestly: "Master Chen Jian, you are too kind. Qingyue is gifted, sensible and polite, which is very rare. In the future, I will pay more attention to its growth to ensure that it will not go astray."

"Elder Li, please check if there are any leaks in the seal formation. If there are no problems, I will leave here early!" Feng Jianzhu interrupted the conversation between the two and reminded them.

Li Mu nodded, released his spiritual sense, and carefully scanned the strength of the entire seal formation and the prohibition situation.

After some investigation, Li Mu could confirm one thing. Although this seal formation has gone through tens of thousands of years, it is located on the seabed and has an endless supply of energy. It fully absorbs the energy of water. The integrity of the formation is many times better than the other two seal formations, and it almost does not need to be repaired.

Li Mu woke up with his eyes and looked at the spiritual plants near the growth cave. It was a large "underwater forest" full of various high-level spiritual plants. Each plant was extremely old, thousands or tens of thousands of years old.

Under the innate magical power-recognition of all spirits, the properties of various high-level aquatic spiritual plants were presented one by one.

……

As far as his eyes could see, the properties of various high-level water-based spiritual plants appeared in Li Mu's eyes, which opened his eyes and dazzled him.

"Elder Li, how is the formation?"

Feng Jianzhu frowned slightly and looked at Li Mu with concern. Although he was not good at formations, he could be sure that the state of the secret realm here was very good and the ban was very powerful with the vision of a strong man in the fusion realm. If he dared to break in, he would probably die.

"Reporting to the sword master, the seal here is in very good condition because of the abundant water element and the formation has the power of self-repair. It has not been damaged and does not need to be repaired." Li Mu looked at Feng Jianzhu and bowed his hands and replied

"That's good." Feng Jianzhu nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Well, if everything is fine, let's go out!" Chen Jianzhu looked at Feng Jianzhu and Li Mu and suggested.

"Sword Master Chen, please wait a moment." Li Mu suddenly interrupted Sword Master Chen's proposal, his brows slightly frowned, as if thinking about something.

"Hmm? Elder Li, do you have to wait for you to pick some spiritual herbs?" Sword Master Chen frowned and glanced at the high-level spiritual plants covered with medicinal cattails.

"No, I will come back for this matter later. How dare I let Sword Master Chen wait." Li Mu quickly rejected it, looking at the two sword masters and said bluntly: "After the two sword masters leave the Water Palace Secret Realm this time, are you ready to set off immediately and attack the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm?"

"Well, that's right. The army has been ready for some time. If we hadn't waited for you to check this secret realm, we would have set off long ago!" Sword Master Chen nodded happily, looked at Li Mu in confusion and responded.

"That's right, Elder Li, do you have any questions?" Sword Master Feng looked at Li Mu, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face, and asked with concern.

Li Mu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Two sword masters, I have a request. If you don't find the Immortal Demon Lord in the Demon Cave Lair during this attack on the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm, please return to the Central Plains Spirit Realm in time!"

"Why? Do you have any clues about the Immortal Demon Lord? Is he in the Central Plains Spirit Realm?" Sword Master Feng looked at Li Mu in surprise, not understanding why he made such a request to them.

"Elder Li, what's the situation? Please explain it clearly!" Sword Master Chen looked solemn and attached great importance to Li Mu's proposal.

Hearing this, Li Mu smiled bitterly and explained quickly: "I made this proposal because I have no clues about the Immortal Demon Lord. This time, the Immortal Demon Lord was severely injured by the two Sword Lords, and his plan to conquer the Nether Water Secret Realm failed. He may retreat to the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm, or he may plan for another sealed place, so I made this request."

"Another sealed place! Elder Li is talking about the Cangyuan Secret Realm managed by the eight major families!" Sword Lord Feng was moved and looked at Li Mu and asked with concern.

Master Chen thought seriously about Li Mu's words, frowning, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes. He had to admit that this situation was somewhat possible.

The means and cruelty of the Immortal Demon Lord would most likely abandon the Demon Abyss Army defending the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm and secretly destroy another seal. If he succeeded and successfully destroyed another sealed place, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Yes, under the pressure of the two sword masters, the eight major families agreed to open the Cangyuan Secret Realm to me. However, I vaguely feel a little uneasy and dare not go alone. If the two sword masters do not find the trace of the Immortal Demon Lord in the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm, I hope the two sword masters can hurry back." Li Mu looked at Master Feng, and Master Chen suggested.

"Elder Li's worry is not impossible." Sword Master Chen nodded, looked at Sword Master Feng and said in a deep voice, "We must be prepared for both situations. On the one hand, we must go all out to attack the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm to ensure that the forces of the Demon Abyss are wiped out; on the other hand, we must also keep a close eye on the traces of the Immortal Demon Lord to ensure the safety of the other seal formation."

"Yes, the eight major families jointly guard a secret realm. There are many people and many mouths, and it is very likely that the news will be leaked, and it is also possible that the Immortal Demon Lord can easily sneak in. We have to be on guard." Li Mu looked at the two sword masters and said solemnly.

"We know about this matter. Don't enter the Cangyuan Secret Realm first, and wait for our news." Sword Master Feng nodded, looked at Li Mu, and explained to ensure that there was no risk.

"Yes!" Li Mu gladly accepted the order. He learned from the last deduction that this matter contained dangers. He did not intend to act rashly, but decided to wait for the two sword masters to return.

After the discussion, Li Mu set up a small teleportation array in the cave, and took the two sword masters to leave the secret realm of the water palace and appear in the ancient teleportation array of Tianxing Island.

Li Mu took the ancient teleportation array, and his figure flashed, returning to the Zhongzhou Spiritual Domain, and appeared at the Xuantian Sword Sect's Sword Peak. Then, he sacrificed a golden spirit sword, and his figure soared into the sky, turning into a golden rainbow, and rushed towards the Contribution Hall deep in the sect.

In the distant Wanxing Sea, Chen Jianzhu and Feng Jianzhu stood side by side, flying their swords. Behind them was the mighty Zhongzhou Fleet, with warships like a forest and momentum like a rainbow. The powerful Zhongzhou Fleet set off in a mighty manner and headed straight for the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain, ready to conquer the Demon Abyss forces that occupied the entire Southern Wilderness Spiritual Domain.

At this time, in the Zhongzhou Spiritual Domain, the Ji family of the eight major families, 'Ji Wuheng' successfully sneaked into the Ji family elders' meeting hall. Regarding the order of the eight major families to entrust the refining of Taoist soldiers, they have already ranked them.

At the other end of the Zhongzhou Spiritual Region, an important meeting was going on inside the Ji Family, one of the eight major families.

In the meeting hall of the Ji Family elders, the atmosphere was solemn. The order of the eight major families to be commissioned to refine Dao soldiers had been decided after a battle. After a fierce battle among the disciples of the eight major families, the Ji Family ranked fourth and obtained the qualification to refine Dao soldiers.

In the meeting hall, the elders discussed the matters of commissioning the refining of Dao soldiers.

After learning the news, Ji Wuheng lowered his head, a trace of demonic energy flashed in his eyes, and he suppressed the murderous intent in his heart and continued to listen to the content of the meeting.

At this moment, Ji Wuheng wished that he could take this opportunity to commission the refining of Dao soldiers to get close to Li Mu and completely solve him. (End of this chapter)
