Chapter 518 All Are Bait
Sword lights were like rain, and killing intent was everywhere.
Blood splattered, staining the green peaks red.
One after another, the Nascent Soul cultivators rushed over like moths to a flame, and then fell into the siege of Lin Mu and Su Xian, dying with hatred.
The flying sword was sharp and killed people like flies.
Facing the cultivators of Lingxiao Sword Sect, Lin Mu did not hesitate at all and killed without mercy!
Now the two sides have completely torn their faces apart. It's either you die or I die. Being kind to the enemy is the greatest cruelty to yourself!
The blood was everywhere, and Lin Mu couldn't remember how many people he had killed with his sword. He was like a madman, falling into a wanton state.
His sword intent level was gradually improving, and he was only a few steps away from the sword intent turning!
Su Xian intended to help Lin Mu. Every time she faced the enemy, she could control the power of her sword intent, and the person who controlled the situation gradually changed from her to Lin Mu!
After fighting, Lin Mu's sword intent became more pure, sharper, and stronger!
"We killed ten more people!" Renault said excitedly when no one came.
He then handed Lin Mu five pieces of Yuanying stage cultivator's spiritual essence, and Lin Mu took it frankly without refusing.
Since his spiritual cultivation was promoted to the Condensation stage, Lin Mu has noticed the advantage of spiritual consciousness. With his current spiritual cultivation, he can use spiritual thorns, not to mention that he can defeat the sea of consciousness of the Yuanying stage cultivator and make him fall into a short dizziness, but he still has more than 80% chance!
With Su Xian's help, as long as his spiritual attack can work, the opponent will definitely die!
With the continuous training of spiritual consciousness, his spiritual consciousness has become stronger and stronger!
"I must improve my spiritual cultivation as soon as possible!" Lin Mu said to himself.
With his current cultivation, if he encounters a Yuanying stage cultivator, he is not invincible, but it is difficult to defeat him!
When he meets a cultivator in the Condensation Stage, his spiritual consciousness is not weaker than that of a cultivator in the Condensation Stage. If he simply competes in sword attack power, he may be at a disadvantage due to his cultivation, but he will not be vulnerable!
If his cultivation is promoted to the Nascent Soul Stage, he may be able to fight against a cultivator in the Condensation Stage!
Perhaps, if his spiritual consciousness can be promoted to the middle stage of the Condensation Stage, he can take the initiative to fight against a cultivator in the Condensation Stage, making himself invincible!
The sea of consciousness is the top priority for cultivators. The spiritual consciousness attack is extremely sharp, but if the sea of consciousness is broken, it will directly fall!
If it is not necessary, few people will take the initiative to fight against the spiritual consciousness.
Now, Lin Mu wants to take a different approach. He wants to fight against others with spiritual consciousness!
He even has a brilliant idea. If he can borrow the spiritual consciousness in the Misty Fairyland, when he meets a cultivator in the Condensation Stage, not to mention being able to fight, even winning is not a luxury!
Lin Mu already had his own idea for this concept, but he was not sure about putting it into practice.
"These past few days, we have been fighting non-stop, and it is really tiring!" Renault said, "Why don't we find a place to rest for a while."
Lin Mu and Su Xian nodded in unison.
"Now the Yuanying stage cultivators of Lingxiao Sword Sect have been almost killed by us. I want to break out as soon as possible!" Lin Mu said, "After this rest, we will break out with all our strength!"
"But we haven't found Lord Ning yet." Renault hesitated.
"The Ning Mansion Master is extremely powerful. If he hadn't fallen into the hands of Zuo Hao and Tong Qi, he might have escaped long ago!" Lin Mu said, "I have a bad feeling. We must return to Qianfang City as soon as possible!"
Su Xian frowned and said, "We killed so many Lingxiao Sword Sect Nascent Soul cultivators, but we didn't see Zuo Hao and Tong Qi. Either the Lingxiao Sword Sect cultivators were too honest for their own lives and didn't dare to tell Zuo Hao and Tong Qi, or Zuo Hao and Tong Qi might be hiding somewhere now, ready to launch a fatal attack when we win a great victory and become careless!"
Lin Mu didn't You said: "Will Zuo Hao and Tong Qi bet on the many Yuanying stage cultivators of Lingxiao Sword Sect? Do they dare to make such a big move?"
"If I hadn't warned you, you would have been careless and arrogant, thinking that the cultivators of the Condensation stage would be killed just like the cultivators of the Yuanying stage!" Su Xian said: "In fact, it is not the case. The cultivators of the Condensation stage are extremely powerful. Even I can only protect myself from the cultivators of the Condensation stage, and it is almost impossible to win."
"How powerful are the cultivators of the Condensation stage?" Lin Mu frowned and asked.
"I can maintain a balance of power under the siege of five late Yuanying cultivators." Su Xian said: "It is not a problem for a cultivator of the Condensation stage to fight against seven or eight late Yuanying cultivators alone!"
"So strong?" Lin Mu was surprised.
Su Xian said seriously: "In terms of absolute strength, the cultivators in the Condensation stage are definitely not as strong as the seven or eight Yuanying stage cultivators combined, but you have to know that when sword cultivators fight, one sword can take the enemy's life. A tiny advantage will become a huge advantage after the battle and defeat the enemy!"
Looking at Lin Mu, Su Xian said: "For example, before your consciousness is promoted to the Condensation stage, it is difficult for you to defeat a Yuanying late stage cultivator. Even if it is a Yuanying early stage cultivator, if he self-destructs his Yuanying, you can't do anything and may die! But after your consciousness is advanced to the Condensation stage, you can defeat a Yuanying late stage cultivator alone! Yuanying early stage cultivators, with your consciousness deterrence, they have no chance to self-destruct their Yuanying, you can kill them sharply!"
"So, the gap is here!" Lin Mu suddenly realized.
Su Xian nodded gently: "I dare to conclude that one of Zuo Hao and Tong Qi must be waiting for us on the road we must pass. If we leave, we don't necessarily have to break out. With our strength, it may be difficult to break out!"
"What should we do?" Renault asked.
"Let's see if we can go around!" Su Xian said: "Try to avoid a head-on confrontation!"
Lin Mu nodded gently: "Our original intention is just to get back to Qianfang City as soon as possible. If we can leave safely without having to break out, it will naturally be the best!"
The three of them discussed and found a cave and began to practice and recuperate.
A few days later, the three of them were refreshed and walked out of the cave together and met at the top of the mountain.
Compared with a few days ago, Lin Mu's consciousness has improved again!
The only thing that made him uneasy was that he still didn't find any news about his parents and the stone. In the three quiet rooms in the Piaomiao Fairyland where the three of them practiced before, there was no word left.
The three of them seemed to disappear out of thin air!
"I hope they are busy with other things and have no time to enter the Piaomiao Fairyland." Lin Mu secretly comforted himself.
Such a thing is not impossible.
His parents and Shitou can use the "Eternal Green Art" to ripen spiritual medicines. He rented hundreds of acres of spiritual fields in Huanling Peak before. If the three of them are ripening spiritual medicines, it is also very possible!
It takes at least several years for a batch of fourth-grade spiritual medicines to mature.
It is normal that they have not appeared for several months now.
But what is the truth, Lin Mu can only guess secretly, whether it is a blessing or a curse, he does not know.
Now, he wants to go back and confirm it in person!
Even if it is just a false alarm, it is worth it, he would rather it be a false alarm!
"Where do we go?" Renault looked at Su Xian and asked.
"Leave from a remote place, we don't take the straight road, we go back in a circle." Su Xian said.
"We were delayed on the road for several months when we came here. If we go around a big circle, the journey will be longer. Wouldn't it take about a year to return to Qianfang City?" Lin Mu frowned.
"Then we must at least leave the Moyun Mountains and then go straight!" Su Xian said.
Renault nodded and said, "After these few days of meditation, I have also come to my senses. Unless we find the Ning Mansion Master, it is indeed difficult for the three of us to break out with our strength!"
"The journey is long, so let's go now without delay!" Lin Mu urged.
The three of them immediately drove their flying swords and flew far away. In order not to attract attention, the three of them tried their best to hide the light of the flying swords and fly silently, for fear of being discovered.
Flying all the way, the peaks below flashed by, and soon, the three of them were about to fly out of the Moyun Mountains, but the closer they were to successfully leave, the more nervous they were, and they did not dare to be careless.
After going around in a big circle, the three of them chose to leave in the direction of Qianfang City in the Moyun Mountains!
The three of them planned to fly around in circles as soon as they flew out of the Moyun Mountains.
But to their horror, they were also targeted in such a remote area!
Just when the three were about to fly out of the Moyun Mountains, four figures appeared and stopped them.
Four Nascent Soul Peak Cultivators!
Lin Mu was stunned and stopped abruptly.
Su Xian and Reno looked gloomy and stopped.
"Damn it, we can be discovered like this!" Reno said bitterly.
"Welcome, we have been waiting here for a long time!" A Nascent Soul Peak Cultivator in brocade clothes stepped out of the crowd and said with a smile.
"Did you know we were going to leave here?" Lin Mu calmed down and asked.
"Our elder had already discovered your whereabouts." The brocade clothes cultivator said: "You three set a trap to surround and kill our Lingxiao Sword Sect people, but it was not perfect."
"Did Zuo Hao know that we killed your fellow disciples?" Reno asked in surprise.
Lin Mu and Reno looked at each other, and a trace of horror flashed in their eyes.
Su Xian was right, Zuo Hao actually knew about this.
"The elder has left his spiritual mark on his fellow disciples. Every time his spiritual mark disappears, you will appear!" The brocade-clothed cultivator said calmly.
"Then why doesn't he come to kill us?" Lin Mu said curiously: "With your strength, it shouldn't be too difficult to kill us. The only thing you need to worry about is not letting Su Mansion Master self-destruct his Nascent Soul."
"You are right!" The brocade-clothed cultivator said: "It's just that you underestimate our elder. How can you predict his ambition?"
"What is his plan?" Lin Mu said calmly: "Why not tell me?"
"He wants to catch all of you, including Mansion Master Ning!" The brocade-clothed cultivator said: "You are just a bait. The elder keeps you just to lure out Mansion Master Ning and then kill you all here!"
"Used us as bait?" Lin Mu laughed.
"Is this funny?" The brocade-clothed cultivator looked gloomy.
"Very funny!" Lin Mu laughed, "If the three of us are bait, then what are the Lingxiao Sword Sect cultivators we killed before?"
"They are also bait!" The brocade-clothed cultivator said, "They are dead, so what? It is too cost-effective to exchange these Nascent Soul cultivators for the lives of the three of you and the Ning Mansion Master!"
Lin Mu looked at the brocade-clothed cultivator, his face suddenly turned cold, and said, "Zuo Hao is ruthless and domineering. He did not hesitate to use his fellow disciples as bait, and he was patient and allowed us to kill them at will. He is really a man who can do great things!"
"Of course!" The brocade-clothed cultivator said complacently, "Our Lingxiao Sword Sect will sooner or later unify the Qianfang Realm!"
"Maybe there is this possibility!" Lin Mu suddenly showed a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "But, I'm afraid you can't see it. Because, you are just bait!"
