Chapter 899: Noticed

Lin Mu and Gu Zhenhao returned to Yuelai Inn.

Although there were still some doubts in his heart, since Du Xin had already admitted defeat, the result was a foregone conclusion, so there was no need to worry.

The most urgent task was to prepare for the round-robin battle in half a month.

With his current strength, it would be very difficult for him to be in the top ten without being able to use the Five Yin Thunder Pearl easily.

If he encountered a master with bad intentions and severely injured him, the subsequent battles would inevitably be a complete failure.

In the final analysis, he still had to be strong.

In half a month, the only hope was to refine the Sui Xin Sword to the realm of a peerless spiritual treasure.

After consuming a huge amount of his spiritual consciousness, Lin Mu also had a hunch that every time the Sui Xin Sword absorbed and refined the essence of a ground-grade condensing spirit pearl, it would be possible to be promoted to a peerless sword.

After weighing it, Lin Mu decided to take advantage of this half month to leave Lin Ge City and find a secluded place to refine it quietly.

The peerless spiritual treasure is what even the peak cultivators of the fusion stage dream of.

If the Sui Xin Sword is promoted to the peerless spiritual treasure realm in Linge City, the strange phenomena of heaven and earth during the advancement will definitely not be hidden from other cultivators.

It will easily bring about unprovoked disasters.

Leave Linge City and find a remote place. After the Sui Xin Sword is promoted, he can withdraw at any time.

Having made up his mind, Lin Mu walked out of the quiet room and went to say goodbye to Gu Zhenhao: "I have a good friend who needs help. I have to go out for a while. During this period, if there is anything in Lin Ge City or any changes in the mineral vein competition conference, you can enter the Misty Fairyland and leave a message for me. I will see it later."

The incident happened suddenly, and Gu Zhenhao couldn't help asking, "What difficulties did your friend encounter? Why don't I go with you? One more person means one more force after all."

"No need." Lin Mu smiled and said, "It's not too dangerous. I can solve it alone. You stay in Lin Ge City. If there are any changes here, I can know it as soon as possible."

"Then be careful on the road." Gu Zhenhao advised.

Seeing that it has entered a round-robin battle, at such an important juncture, Lin Mu suddenly went out. He was really worried about something unexpected.

Lin Mu smiled and nodded.

If he can temper the Sui Xin Sword to the realm of peerless spiritual treasure this time, he will be able to stir up a storm when he returns to Lin Ge City.

With his current strength, he can almost fight against the late-stage fusion cultivators head-on, if the Sui Xin Sword is promoted to a peerless spiritual treasure.

In the confrontation with the late-stage fusion cultivators, what can he do?

Thinking of this, he was full of excitement and expectation.

Lin Mu came to the outside of the city through the crowded streets, amid the discussions and pointings of the cultivators along the way.

As soon as he walked out of Linge City, Lin Mu's mind moved, and he immediately sacrificed the Sui Xin Sword, stepped on the flying sword, and flew away in a flash.

The two peak Return to Void cultivators followed quietly while sending letters with flying swords.

In Linge City, Du Xin and Du Cheng had a good discussion, and just as they walked out of the courtyard, a purple sword light came in front of them.

Du Xin stretched out two fingers, clamped the purple flying sword, took off the talisman and looked at it. His face changed, and he turned to Du Cheng and said, "Lin Mu just left Linge City!"

"So fast?" Du Cheng's face was surprised and happy.

He had just discussed with Du Xin how to deal with Lin Mu.

He didn't expect that Lin Mu would go out alone so soon.

It was destined by heaven that Lin Mu would be killed.

"Should we chase him?" Du Xin asked Du Cheng for his opinion.

If they took the opportunity to kill Lin Mu during the mining competition, and Lin Mu didn't show up when the competition started, it would definitely cause an uproar.

If they waited until after the mining competition, they would be able to do it without anyone noticing and it would be much calmer.

"Chase him!" Du Cheng made a decision immediately.

"Now is the best opportunity." Du Cheng analyzed, "After the mineral vein competition meeting, Lin Mu's strength will be tempered and will definitely be improved. At that time, he will leave with Gu Zhenhao. It will be difficult for the two of us to kill the two fusion cultivators."

"We can ask friends for help then." Du Tong said, "Aren't you close friends with several late fusion cultivators?"

"Only the two of us can do this, and once we do it, no matter what the cost, we must kill Lin Mu and never let a third party know." Du Cheng said solemnly.

"Are you worried that there is a powerful force behind him?" Du Xin was awed.

"Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one." Du Cheng said, "If there is a powerful force, once the news is exposed, with our strength, we will definitely die!"

"In that case, why don't we just let it go." Du Xin already had the intention of retreating in his heart.

He would not do a loss-making business.

Compared with Du Cheng, he knows how to be patient.

In the crucial fifth round of competition, he could make a quick decision and admit defeat.

If something was too risky, he would think twice and never rush into anything.

It was because of this that he was able to live safely until now.

"It's hard to say whether there is a big force behind Lin Mu." Du Cheng said, "Even if there is, it is definitely not in Jinxiu Realm. As long as we kill Lin Mu, we will be safe."

"Now that I think about it, it seems that we can't get much benefit from killing Lin Mu." Du Xin said hesitantly.

"You are completely wrong!" Du Cheng analyzed, "If there is a big force behind Lin Mu, he must have a peerless inheritance and a peerless treasure. Such an inheritance can help us advance to the Mahayana stage and avoid many detours."

Du Cheng's eyes were eager.

What do cultivators want to achieve after practicing for a lifetime?

He doesn't care about others. He only knows that he wants to become an immortal and live forever!

Now his cultivation is in the late stage of fusion, and he is only one step away from entering the Mahayana stage.

After the Mahayana stage, he can impact the immortal position.

However, the later it is, the more difficult it is.

He has been trapped in the late stage of fusion for three thousand years, and his cultivation has not improved at all. In the Jinxiu world, he is already one of the top people.

Other cultivators are unlikely to tell him their treasures.

He is not sure that he can kill other late stage fusion cultivators and steal their secrets.

Now he has encountered a rare genius like Lin Mu, who has comprehended the sword domain in the middle stage of returning to the void, and his sword attainment has reached the late stage of the sword domain. Even he can only envy and hate.

He has observed Lin Mu and did not think that Lin Mu was too extraordinary. It is very likely that he was lucky and obtained a peerless inheritance.

If he can obtain such a peerless inheritance, his sword attainment will not only surpass Lin Mu, but also reach the late stage of the sword domain like Lin Mu, and he will be invincible in the fusion stage!

In this way, the chance of being promoted to the Mahayana stage is also greatly increased!

Lin Mu's strength in the Return to the Void stage is so strong, and the later he is, the stronger he will be.

Delay will lead to changes.

If Lin Mu is given some more time, his strength will almost catch up with his. By then, even if he and Du Xin join forces, they may not be able to kill Lin Mu.

Therefore, he can't wait and wants to start early.

Du Xin's desire to break through the Mahayana period is far less urgent than Du Cheng's, and he can't help but worry.

"What if there is no big power behind him, no peerless inheritance?" Du Xin asked.

After all, Lin Mu has three five-yin thunder beads in his hand, so he is more inclined to find a few more friends to have a better chance.

"If there is no big power behind him, no peerless inheritance, then we will never suffer a loss this time." Du Cheng said with a firm face, "As long as we can get his sword secrets, it will be a big profit. What's more, you said that the power of his flying sword is even stronger than mine, plus he has obtained Liao Shu's entire fortune and all his own belongings, which are all huge wealth!"

Du Cheng became more and more excited as he spoke.

Whether there is a big power behind Lin Mu or not, this time it is a sure win!

"You know, he has three Five Yin Lightning Beads on him. Are we two sure we can kill him?" Du Xin asked.

To be on the safe side, he agreed with his brother and stopped asking friends for help. If there was a powerful force behind Lin Mu, the consequences would be disastrous if the matter was exposed.

But he was not sure if it was just the two of them.

"The Five Yin Lightning Beads are powerful, but there is no need to worry too much." Du Cheng said confidently.

"Do you have a way to resolve it?" Du Xin couldn't help showing a hint of joy on his face.

Du Cheng smiled and nodded: "I have to say that Lin Mu is a peerless genius. He told us how to resolve it himself."

"Could it be that what he said before was true?" Du Xin's face showed a look of disbelief.

"I specifically found a few ordinary lightning beads condensed by Yuanying stage cultivators. After detonating them, I personally tested them several times and found that the center of the lightning bead explosion is indeed the safest." Du Cheng said with a smile on his face, "At first, even I thought Lin Mu was talking nonsense, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

"So, even if Lin Mu detonates three five-yin lightning beads, we can still escape safely?" Du Xin couldn't help but smile.

"If possible, we shouldn't let him have the opportunity to use the five-yin lightning beads!" Du Cheng sneered, "Since we are going to do it, we should try our best to kill him with one blow!"

Du Xin nodded with a smile on his face.

While talking, the two came to the outside of Linge City, and then they all sacrificed their flying swords and chased forward.

After chasing for half a day, in a desolate place, the two finally caught up with two anxious peak return-to-void stage cultivators.

"Have you seen any trace of Lin Mu?" Du Xin asked hurriedly.

"Lin Mu's speed was very fast. We followed him all the way. When we got to this place, he suddenly disappeared. No matter how hard we tried, we couldn't find any trace of him." A blue-clothed cultivator said.

"He must have noticed that you two were following him and left you behind." Du Cheng said with a flickering look in his eyes.

"Let's look around. He shouldn't have gone far." Du Xin said.

The two decided to search separately.

"Where's our reward?" The blue-clothed cultivator couldn't help asking when he saw the two were about to leave.

Du Cheng ignored him and left.

Du Xin didn't leave directly, but turned around.

The two Return to Void cultivators couldn't help but smile.

"You can't even chase someone, you're such a waste! You dare to ask me for a reward?" Du Xin's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "What's the use of you?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately mobilized the power of heaven and earth, urged the flying sword, and with two swipes, he killed the two Return to Void cultivators.

After Du Xin killed them to silence them, he snorted coldly and turned to leave.

A moment later, in the strong smell of blood, Lin Mu's figure suddenly flashed out.

Looking at the corpses of the two Return to Void cultivators, his eyes flashed and his face was gloomy.
