Chapter 740: Confident
The most powerful cultivator in the entire Linhai City is only at the peak of the Return to Void Stage.
This peak Return to Void Stage cultivator must be just an ordinary peak cultivator, otherwise he would not have come to Linhai City to be the city lord.
Unfortunately, this only peak Return to Void Stage cultivator does not stay here for a long time, but only comes here occasionally.
In this case, how can ordinary Return to Void Stage cultivators dare to go deep into the Purple Sand Sea?
On the beach, it is difficult to refine two kilograms of top-grade purple sand in a year. After entering the Purple Sand Sea, the amount of top-grade purple sand is getting higher and higher, and the deeper you go, the more there is.
But they dare not go deep here, everything is in vain, and they can only refine sand slowly outside.
If they can attract a group of Yuanying Stage cultivators and Condensation Stage cultivators to refine sand in the depths of this Purple Sand Sea, with the amount of top-grade purple sand here, they will definitely be able to refine ten thousand kilograms of top-grade purple sand in half a year!
However, this method seems difficult to work at present.
Lin Mu had just arrived here when he encountered a fierce beast in the sea whose strength surpassed that of the average peak Return to Void Stage cultivator. No one knew how many such beasts there were. If there were groups of beasts, or even beasts that surpassed those of the Fusion Stage cultivators, Lin Mu would be helpless, and even he himself would be in danger.
If he had not gone so far, the number of top-grade purple sands would be much greater than on the beach.
Even if there were fierce beasts, the strength of the beasts on the periphery was not as strong as here.
Lin Mu thought to himself that with his strength, it would not be difficult to clear out a safe area.
In this way, it would be much faster to gather a group of cultivators to refine sand.
How to persuade everyone to overcome their fear and go deep into the purple sand sea is a rather troublesome matter.
There are indeed many desperate people among the cultivators who are willing to fight for a chance, but these are only a minority after all. Most people still value their lives. Unless it is absolutely necessary, they will never risk their lives to earn spirit stones.
Refining sand is just to earn spirit stones. You can earn spirit stones at any time, so why risk your life?
However, it is difficult to gather a large group of cultivators to go deep into the purple sand sea with just a few words.
Even with the majesty of the Xu family, these Yuanying stage cultivators and Condensation stage cultivators dare not come in without safety guarantees.
Like the fierce beast just now, a fierce beast can easily devour a large group of Yuanying stage cultivators and Condensation stage cultivators.
"It seems that I need to show my true strength." Lin Mu said to himself.
He wanted to keep a low profile and not attract attention, but as things developed, he found that this was impossible.
The Misty Fairyland is a shocking thing. How can it be low-key?
Next, what he wants to do is not simple. Without strong strength, others will not be convinced.
Refining sand, which is not important to him now, requires extremely strong combat power.
If it weren't for his extremely strong strength, it would be dangerous for a peak Return to Void stage cultivator to come here today and encounter this fierce beast in the sea.
Fortunately, in this Linhai City, it is not a big deal for him to show his edge. As long as the Piaomiao Fairyland has passed the initial development, it will soon be stable. By then, even if the big forces want to obstruct and destroy it, he will be able to deal with it with a certain degree of confidence.
In Qianjin City, he is just an outsider cultivator, free from all worries. Compared with the big forces that have been here for thousands or tens of thousands of years, he is much freer.
Unless the big forces join forces to deal with him, otherwise, he is not afraid of a single force.
As one of the five big forces in Qianjin City, the Xu family is only rumored to have a fusion stage cultivator, and there may not be any at all.
Even if there is, with his strength, under the explosion of the Thunder Yuanzhu, plus the help of the Green Ox, he can completely fight against the fusion stage cultivator head-on.
But he is not stupid. If there is no benefit, why should he fight against the fusion stage cultivator head-on?
On the contrary, once he shows his strength, the big forces will be much more afraid.
If he intends to launch a sneak attack, no one can escape his hands except the strongest of the major forces.
And he can come and go freely. At worst, if he can't stay here, he can just start over in another place.
For the major forces, what they suffer may be a devastating blow.
Even if he can't exterminate a force, Lin Mu is confident that he can severely damage it. Once he leaves, the strength of this major force will be greatly reduced and it will soon be swallowed up by other forces.
No matter from which aspect, if you are against him, he may not be the one who suffers in the end.
Even if you take a step back, the Piaomiao Fairyland he manages has never appeared in the entire cultivation world before, and others cannot imitate it. There is no direct competition with him. On the contrary, once he achieves his goal, the wonderful concept of Piaomiao Fairyland will be realized, which will be of great benefit to all the major forces.
Therefore, Lin Mu believes that as long as these major forces have some vision, they will not take action against him.
When necessary, he decided to show his strength thoroughly, establish his reputation, and shock the major forces in advance.
This trip to Linhai City is a good opportunity.
Showing off one's strength, no matter to whom, is likely to offend the major forces in Qianjin City. However, hunting beasts in this purple sand sea can not only refine top-grade purple sand, but also shock others. It is a two-birds-with-one-stone move, which is very good.
These powerful beasts are full of treasures, which is also a huge gain.
Having made up his mind, Lin Mu returned along the original route. In the next few days, he wandered around the surrounding sea area, which was only two days away from Linhai City, and stopped at several small islands on the way.
Lin Mu found that these small islands were also rich in products, with all kinds of treasures everywhere, but they were not considered treasures. They were suitable for Yuanying stage cultivators and Condensation stage cultivators. Occasionally, there were some suitable for Return to Void stage cultivators.
Lin Mu looked down on all these.
But for ordinary Condensation stage cultivators, these were all treasures, and there were several Return to Void stage monster beasts wandering around these small islands, often going to the islands to devour various treasures.
Not to mention the cultivators in the Condensation Stage, even the cultivators in the Return to Void Stage would not dare to come here alone.
Lin Mu took action directly and hunted down all the powerful monsters around these islands. It only took five or six days.
After wandering around the surrounding seas, Lin Mu found several places with abundant amounts of top-grade purple sand, and he secretly marked them all.
Lin Mu valued these places with abundant amounts of top-grade purple sand and these islands very much.
Whether it was the top-grade purple sand or the rich treasures on the islands, they were of no use to him, but if used properly, they would be of great use to the development of Piaomiao Fairyland.
After doing all this, Lin Mu left the Purple Sand Sea with a satisfied smile and returned to Linhai City.
Before reaching the beach, Lin Mu saw Hua Jin and Xu Jiao standing on the beach from a distance, looking into the sea.
He could not help but speed up and fly away at high speed.
"Brother is back!" Hua Jin's cultivation was higher than Xu Jiao's. He spotted Lin Mu's figure first, and a smile appeared on his face.
Xu Jiao was also very excited when she heard this.
She had not been angry since the third day after arriving in Linhai City.
But Lin Mu had already left at that time. Someone saw him flying to the depths of the Purple Sand Sea. There was no news for several days. She was very worried and wanted to go with Hua Jin to find him.
But after Teng Yunfei's persuasion, she gave up this idea.
Not to mention that she and Hua Jin were together, even if Teng Yunfei followed them, going to the depths of the Purple Sand Sea would be dangerous.
It was too difficult to find someone in the vast ocean.
It was better to wait on the beach.
Hua Jin also kept persuading her. She knew Lin Mu's strength very well.
She has traveled all over the world and has seen a lot of things. She has heard a lot of secrets about cultivation. If she is not mistaken, the sword domain that Lin Mu used that day should be the most powerful, domineering and sharpest boundless killing domain. The flying sword used by Lin Mu is much better than his Rongxin Sword. The strength of these two alone is extremely terrifying.
At least in Qianjin City, even the leaders of several major forces may not be his opponents.
Only those who have lived for tens of thousands or even tens of thousands of years in seclusion can possibly beat him.
This trip to the depths of the Purple Sand Sea should not cause any problems.
But Xu Jiao was very worried. She always dragged her to watch and wait for Lin Mu's return these days.
As she expected, Lin Mu is back safely now.
If she is lucky, there may be unexpected gains.
The sword flashed, and Lin Mu stopped.
After some concern and greetings, the three returned to the Linhai City Mansion with smiles on their faces.
"This trip to the Purple Sand Sea was a good harvest." As soon as he returned to the mansion, Lin Mu smiled and said, "I found several sea areas with a lot of top-quality purple sand, and several small islands, which are also rich in treasures and valuable. In a few days, I can summon cultivators to refine sand and mine treasures."
"Is it in the deep sea?" Xu Jiao asked.
"Not very deep." Lin Mu smiled, "There are some powerful monsters around the island, but I have cleared them all. As for those sea areas, I didn't find any powerful monsters when I went there."
"You can even beat the fierce beasts in the deep sea?" Xu Jiao heard that Lin Mu encountered a fierce beast whose cultivation was stronger than that of an average peak Return to Void Stage cultivator, and drove it away, so she couldn't help asking again.
She knew that Lin Mu was very powerful, but she was still surprised to see him so strong.
"My cultivation is a disadvantage, and it is difficult for me to fight for a long time, but compared with the peak combat power, the Return to Void Stage cultivator is no match for me." Lin Mu said with a smile.
He had already made plans to show his strength, so there was no need to hide it from Xu Jiao.
He had many plans in the future, all of which required the help of the Xu family. Xu Jiao might be able to help him say a few words in front of Xu Hong.
"If that's the case, then you can go to the deep sea to help the Yuanying and Condensation cultivators protect the law, and let them refine the best purple sand!" Xu Jiao said excitedly.
Lin Mu smiled and nodded: "That's what I meant. We will make a good plan in the next few days, and then we can gather a large number of cultivators to go."
Xu Jiao cheered and clapped his hands.
Lin Mu then returned to his quiet room and began to make final preparations.
In the next few days, he spent all his time in Piaomiao Fairyland.
He kept recording various grades of skills on the Qinghuan Wall of the Jing Room in Wangchen Tower and Lingxiao Pavilion.
Along the way, Lin Mu killed countless high-level cultivators and collected countless storage bags. The skills he collected were varied and rich. He even had several eighth-grade skills!
He also collected many powerful secret techniques.
Now, all these skills are of great use!
