Chapter 725 Meeting an Old Friend Again

Jinxiu Realm, prosperous and splendid.

Lin Mu and Qingniu passed by a city at the border and found that there were two Return to Void Stage cultivators in this city.

The middle realms that can have Return to Void Stage cultivators are considered good. In many middle realms, the strongest are only in Condensation Stage.

But in Jinxiu Realm, in the border city, you can see two Return to Void Stage cultivators. This is not accidental. There are many Condensation Stage cultivators.

The big world is indeed worthy of being called a big world.

Lin Mu passed through several cities along the way and praised them repeatedly.

Such a prosperous place is just right for development.

The deeper the cultivators go, the higher their cultivation level is. Gradually, in a city, the Yuanying Stage cultivators are all the lowest in cultivation, Condensation Stage cultivators are everywhere, and Return to Void Stage cultivators have become very common.

This is the foundation of the big world, and it is this point that Lin Mu is interested in.

In a world, cities are like stars, and cultivators are countless.

A city is surrounded by scattered caves and blessed lands, and many cultivators gather there.

However, most cultivators, especially those with good wealth, go to live in the city and practice in seclusion.

In the city, safety is guaranteed, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is extremely rich, far richer than those small caves and blessed lands.

More importantly, as long as you have spiritual stones, you can easily buy what you need for cultivation in the city. There are also many business opportunities to earn spiritual stones in the city.

For those who like comfort and are unwilling to take risks, living in the city is definitely the best choice.

For many cultivators, the dream of their whole life is to have an independent courtyard in the city.

The cities that Lin Mu saw along the way were all vast and boundless. There were tens of thousands of cultivators in the inner city alone. This was the core of a city, the most prosperous place, the most powerful cultivators, the best shops, and the most precious treasures. All gathered here.

The outer city, which is wider than the inner city, is where most cultivators live and practice on weekdays.

Lin Mu estimated that there were at least hundreds of thousands of cultivators in a city.

Most of the cultivators were above the Nascent Soul stage. If hundreds of thousands of Nascent Soul cultivators could be integrated, what a terrifying force it would be.

The power of an ordinary middle realm is not as strong as a city in a large realm.

This is not the most prosperous place in the Splendid World, but just the periphery.

And the Splendid World, among the large realms, is just an ordinary large realm.

From this, it can be seen how huge the gap in strength is between the large realm and the middle realm.

It is no wonder that cultivators in the Fusion Stage generally do not stay in the Middle Realm, even in the top middle realms like the Lingguang Realm, they are unwilling to stay. It turns out that this is the reason.

The Middle Realm is really incomparable to the Large Realm.

The gap is even greater than the gap between the Return to Void Stage cultivators and the Fusion Stage cultivators.

"Where do we live?" Qingniu asked while flying all the way.

"If we want to complete this wonderful idea, we must be in a city, so that there will be many cultivators." Lin Mu said, "It is best if there are no fusion cultivators in this city, but it is also very prosperous and suitable for us to display."

"Such a city is too difficult to find." Qingniu said, "Generally, there are fusion cultivators in prosperous places, that's for sure."

Lin Mu compromised: "It's okay to have fusion cultivators, but at most they can only be fusion cultivators in the early stage."

Fusion cultivators are indeed powerful, and Lin Mu doesn't want to meet them, but it's not that he is afraid.

As long as he doesn't provoke fusion cultivators, it should be fine.

Even if he encounters a kind fusion cultivator, he may be able to ask for help.

"That's about right." Qingniu nodded in agreement.

"Just passed that city, and a peak Return to Void cultivator has appeared. Going deeper will definitely be better." Lin Mu decided, "Let's stop at the next city."

Flying forward all the way, as fast as a meteor.

Suddenly!

Lin Mu's figure came to a sudden stop.

Qing Niu also stopped.

"What's the matter?" Qing Niu asked hurriedly.

Lin Mu's spiritual sense was far superior to Qing Niu's, and his perception was extremely sharp. He could sense the situation far ahead.

Lin Mu released his spiritual sense and carefully investigated, and a look of doubt flashed across his face.

A fierce battle was taking place dozens of miles ahead.

Of course, this fierceness was only relative to the cultivators participating in the fight. For Lin Mu, it was naturally not worth mentioning.

Three Yuanying late-stage cultivators besieged a Yuanying late-stage female cultivator.

Qing Niu also released his spiritual sense and saw the scene in front.

"What's so good about the dispute between three Yuanying cultivators." Qing Niu asked curiously, "This female cultivator is good-looking. Are you interested in her?"

"Yes." Lin Mu nodded gently.

"You are kidding, right?" Qingniu looked at Lin Mu with a surprised look on his face. "There were so many peerless beauties before, but I never saw you actively pursue them. Why are you so interested in a random woman you met on the street, who is only a female cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage?"

Qingniu didn't believe it, so he released his spiritual sense again, carefully looked at the female cultivator, and muttered: "This female cultivator has a good temperament, but her appearance is far inferior to Xiao Qingmei."

"How many women in this world can compare with Xiao Qingmei?" Lin Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Have you ever seen a woman who looks better than Xiao Qingmei?"

"No." Qingniu didn't even think about it and replied directly.

"Let's go and take a look." While Lin Mu was speaking, he performed teleportation and flew forward.

"Wait for me!" Qingniu hurriedly followed from behind.

Dozens of miles away, Lin Mu teleported several times in succession, and in a few breaths, he arrived at the place where the fierce battle was.

The sword light flickered and changed.

Three Yuanying late sword cultivators desperately launched an attack and besieged a woman in a brocade dress.

This female cultivator was also beautiful, but what attracted Lin Mu was her temperament.

Facing the siege, the brocade-shirted female cultivator had a resolute face, was not in a hurry, and responded calmly. No matter how the three late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators launched a fierce attack, she was able to counter their moves without showing any panic.

People who didn't know her would think that she was extremely powerful and far superior to the three cultivators who besieged her.

Seeing her confident look, she was simply invincible.

Lin Mu could see at a glance that the brocade-shirted woman was actually just holding on, and her spiritual power would soon be exhausted.

Fighting three people alone, her strength was extraordinary, and her mind was calm and resolute. Lin Mu liked her very much.

The more he looked at this brocade-shirted woman, the more familiar she felt, as if he had seen her somewhere before.

Especially as the battle became more and more intense and the situation became more and more critical, the brocade-shirted woman remained calm as before, with a resolute face and no trace of disorder.

Seeing that she was about to be killed, she did not give up hope and was steadily dealing with the three besieging cultivators.

Life and death danger could not be seen on her face.

This calmness was familiar to Lin Mu.

After all, there was a huge gap between the two sides. Seeing that a disaster would happen if the fight continued, Lin Mu finally took action.

Boom!

A shocking killing intent descended instantly.

A chilling chill penetrated his heart.

The boundless killing domain spread out.

The four people who fought fiercely were trapped in the sword domain and could not move.

The three besieging cultivators were so frightened by such a big change that they turned pale and wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy.

But soon, they found that they could not even speak.

The brocade-shirted woman had an imperceptible surprise on her face, and then she immediately returned to normal and was extremely calm.

It seemed that this rescue had been expected by her.

The sword domain easily sealed the three besieging cultivators. Lin Mu waved his hand, and the brocade-shirted woman flew out of the boundless killing domain and flew towards him.

After regaining her freedom, the brocade-shirted woman looked up at Lin Mu, and her face was surprised.

"Do you know me?" Lin Mu's heart moved, and he asked hurriedly.

After looking at Lin Mu again and again, the brocade-shirted woman said, "No."

She spoke crisply and neatly, without a word of nonsense, nor did she say thank you, explain the reason for the fierce battle, and just stood there quietly.

"I seem to have seen you somewhere." Lin Mu looked at the brocade-shirted woman and said, "What's your name?"

"Hua Jin." The brocade-shirted woman said.

"Are you from Tianxiao Realm? Hua Jin from Qianyu Sword Sect?" Lin Mu suddenly felt ecstatic.

"Who are you?" The brocade-shirted woman rarely gave a concise answer, but asked Lin Mu a question instead, her face had changed greatly, and her reaction was very strong.

"I am Lin Mu, Lin Mu from Qianyu Sword Sect." Lin Mu looked at the brocade-shirted woman with expectation, "Are you really Hua Jin from Qianyu Sword Sect?"

"I am." Hua Jin stared at Lin Mu, "Are you really Senior Brother Lin Mu?"

Lin Mu nodded vigorously.

Hua Jin lost his composure, tears welled up in his eyes, and he threw himself into Lin Mu's arms.

Lin Mu's eyes were also moist, and he hugged Hua Jin tightly, saying with emotion: "I didn't expect to meet you here again after hundreds of years."

It was really a lot of emotion to meet old friends again.

Lin Mu and Hua Jin had only met a few times at the beginning, but he was deeply impressed by Hua Jin, and he can still remember it today.

Back then, Qianyu Sword Sect opened its mountain gate to recruit disciples, and the test was very cruel. Hua Jin's perseverance was amazing. He climbed out of a bloody road and climbed to the top of the mountain, shocking everyone. He was directly accepted as a true disciple by the Ice Fairy on the spot, and became a good story in the sect.

Back then, Shitou was also there and had offered to help Hua Jin.

But now, Shitou is nowhere to be found.

Thinking of the past, everything seems like yesterday.

"Are you okay?" Lin Mu patted Hua Jin's back gently and asked with concern.

Hua Jin hugged Lin Mu tightly and nodded vigorously. Then he understood that Lin Mu couldn't see it, so he choked and said, "Okay."

The word "Okay" contained so much bitterness and tears.

From the Tianxiao Realm to the Jinxiu Realm, Hua Jin's cultivation was probably only at the Qi Refining Stage. It is conceivable how many ups and downs he had to go through along the way.

In just a few hundred years, their cultivation has reached the late stage of the Nascent Soul, and their strength is much stronger than that of the cultivators of the same level. Only those who have experienced it can understand how much they have paid.

Lin Mu hugged Hua Jin tightly, feeling very close.

He hasn't felt this way for a long time.

After a series of heavy blows, his dead heart has regained vitality again.

Lin Mu was very happy to meet his old friend again.

Even Hua Jin, who had just entered the sect not long ago, is still alive now. Yin Xin, Luo Yan, Han Bing Fairy, Yun Meng, Nishang Fairy and others may still be alive!

Fate is really unpredictable.

Life is full of encounters!
