Chapter 913: Surprise

Lin Mu flew lightly to the battle stage.

Like thousands of other cultivators, he pretended to be patient and waiting.

As if he knew nothing about Du Cheng's death.

In order to protect himself, every detail needed to be covered up and no flaws could be revealed.

He and Du Cheng missed three competitions at the same time. Now he rushed back, but there was still no news from Du Cheng. If he heard about the battle with Du Cheng, he would show joy on his face. It was hard to guarantee that someone would not suspect that he already knew that Du Cheng had fallen, and then suspected him.

The cultivator who could force Du Cheng to self-destruct his Nascent Soul was a cultivator with a peerless spiritual treasure.

Naturally, the secret that he possessed a peerless spiritual treasure would also be known to other cultivators.

"It seems that Du Cheng still cannot fight in this battle." The cultivators below the stage began to discuss.

"Lin Mu really got a great bargain!"

"Even though his cultivation level has declined, he still managed to win a game!"

"Du Cheng cannot come. The last one is Du Cheng, and Lin Mu is second to last."

The white-robed elder did not close the ancient ban around the battle stage. The cultivators below the stage were talking, and Lin Mu heard it clearly.

When the wall falls, everyone pushes it.

Now that he has fallen, he ranks second to last, and many cultivators think that he has got a great bargain.

Before his cultivation level declined, many people were optimistic that he could enter the top ten.

Now they no longer have hope for him.

Many cultivators thought that Du Cheng's absence was a bargain for him, but in fact, Du Cheng was killed by him.

In a real duel, he can still defeat Du Cheng.

The fruits of victory now are what he deserves.

Lin Mu is very open-minded.

He cannot influence other people's thoughts, he can only do his best.

He is even secretly happy in his heart.

Now thousands of cultivators no longer have high hopes for him. If he can still make a comeback and become one of the top ten, it will surely shock them even more and make them unforgettable for the rest of their lives.

For a cultivator in the early stage of returning to the void to become one of the top ten in the mineral vein competition conference, this is a myth in itself.

Although Lin Mu himself knew that his hope was slim, he wanted to give it a try.

Who knows if it will not work if he doesn't try?

If he really did it, and pushed all the credit to the Piaomiao fairyland in the future, it is conceivable how crazy thousands of cultivators will be, and how popular the jade slips will be.

Even if it is a blue star jade slip worth tens of millions of spirit stones, it will definitely be able to sell a lot.

Lin Mu was making plans in his mind, and time passed unknowingly.

Du Cheng still did not appear.

The white-clothed elder quickly announced the result of the competition: "This time, Lin Mu wins!"

Lin Mu's face was covered with a smile at this time. After smiling and signaling to the elder, he flew down the battle stage.

He did not stay here with Gu Zhenhao for long, and went back to Yuelai Inn directly.

The next three days were extremely precious to him.

The power of the Sui Xin Sword had been absorbed and refined by a ground-grade Concentrated Mind Pearl before, and its power had been restored a little, but it was still far from enough.

After returning to Yuelai Inn, Lin Mu went straight to his quiet room, set up many restrictions, and entered the Xuanyue Space again.

After entering the Misty Fairyland to take a look, Lin Mu regretfully found that the spiritual consciousness in the Misty Fairyland was not enough to condense a ground-grade Concentrated Mind Pearl.

As for the peerless Concentrated Mind Pearl, its essence was pure, and it was no problem to use it to restore the power of the spiritual treasure, but the effect of using it to restore the power of the peerless spiritual treasure was minimal.

Lin Mu simply decided to wait patiently for another two days.

In the Xuanyue Space, he actually had six days.

This time could not be wasted at all.

Lin Mu immediately took out two bottles of healing pills, swallowed them, and began to refine and absorb the medicinal effects, and seriously healed his injuries.

His lower abdomen was directly pierced by the Infant-killing Shuttle, and his physical injuries have not yet fully recovered. He was busy restoring the power of the Heart-Slaying Sword and improving his combat power before, so he didn't take care of it.

Now, he can't delay any longer. If he leaves hidden dangers for a long time, it will be extremely difficult to improve his physical realm in the future.

Fortunately, his physical realm has long been in the late stage of fusion, and he has a very strong recovery ability. After taking the elixir and carefully absorbing and refining the medicinal effects, his injuries recovered quickly.

After a few days of rest, he will be almost healed.

The slight turbulence in the sea of ​​consciousness also subsided.

Compared with the past, his cultivation has only declined. If the power of the Heart-Slaying Sword becomes stronger, his strength will undoubtedly become stronger!

Two days later, Lin Mu barely condensed a small earth-grade concentration bead and began to temper and nourish the Heart-Slaying Sword.

Lin Mu used this earth-grade concentration bead very carefully, trying not to waste it at all.

Fortunately, the power of the Sui Xin Sword was greatly reduced, and it was in need of a major supplement. Most of the essence of the spiritual consciousness was absorbed by it, and very little was lost.

The essence of a ground-grade spiritual bead was exhausted, and Lin Mu felt a little powerless.

Even if he wanted to continue to work hard to refine it, a good cook cannot cook without rice.

Without the foundation of spiritual consciousness, he was helpless.

Lin Mu deeply felt that even though there were already tens of millions of cultivators in Piaomiao Fairyland, the accumulated spiritual essence was still not enough.

Now it was difficult for him to restore the Suixin Sword alone.

Not to mention that the Five Elements Magic Mirror itself had not yet begun to recover, and there were still several spiritual treasures waiting behind.

In the final analysis, Piaomiao Fairyland was not invincible. It could only accumulate and store the spiritual fragments consumed by the cultivators, and could not plunder or forcibly take them.

There was a big gap between the spiritual fragments consumed by the cultivators and the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators themselves.

This meant that Piaomiao Fairyland could only develop by relying on the number of cultivators.

He might be able to achieve the forced plunder of the cultivators' spiritual consciousness after some research, but this was obviously against his will.

He had the ability to do it, but he would not do it.

Such a behavior of killing the goose that lays the golden eggs was really stupid.

If he wanted to go long-term, he could only start from the number of cultivators and their cultivation.

Most of the cultivators in Piaomiao Fairyland are now in the Condensation Stage, and there are very few in the Return to Void Stage.

But if you want to condense an extremely pure earth-grade Condensation Bead, the essence of the consciousness of a cultivator in the fusion stage is undoubtedly purer and twice the result with half the effort.

All this can only be done after the end of the mineral vein competition conference.

Selling the jade slip now, in his current state, the cultivators are not optimistic about him, the effect will not be much good, and he has no time to do these things for the time being.

To make the jade slip, he also needs to leave a spiritual mark in person, which also takes a lot of time.

Distant water cannot quench immediate thirst.

The power of the Sui Xin Sword is difficult to recover completely for a while, and his combat power cannot reach the peak state.

The next competition, especially the first few games, will be extremely difficult.

Lin Mu only hopes that his luck can be better and meet those cultivators whose cultivation has not yet truly entered the late stage of fusion, and don’t meet too strong, otherwise he really can’t fight.

But who can say luck is good?

Three days of rest passed in a flash, Lin Mu came out of the Xuanyue space, and went to the battle stage with Gu Zhenhao.

"I originally planned to let you gamble with others, and the spiritual stones you earned could buy another mineral vein." Lin Mu said apologetically, "Now my strength has declined seriously, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fulfill my wish."

"What are you talking about!" Gu Zhenhao said hurriedly, "You can come back safely, there must be something that makes me happier than this. It's just a mineral vein, sooner or later it will be a hundred years, you don't have to care too much."

"If I can't be in the top ten, the loss of mineral veins will add up to far more than one." Lin Mu still misses the mineral vein.

Piaomiao Fairyland is the key to his ability to quickly improve his strength and magic weapons.

If he wants to develop Piaomiao Fairyland, he must rely on mineral veins.

Without his own mineral veins, everything is difficult, even empty talk.

Before, he took a large amount of spirit stones and took the initiative to visit the door to buy the Blue Star Jade Slip, but others ignored him. This incident was a great stimulation to him.

Only when you own the mineral vein, you can do whatever you want without restrictions.

When he came to the battle stage, Lin Mu found that the cultivators were more dense than last time.

Even though his cultivation level has declined now, there are still many cultivators who want to see how he will perform.

This is not entirely a beautiful expectation.

If he can win, it will naturally surprise people and make them amazed.

If he loses, there will definitely be many cultivators who will sneer and add insult to injury.

Many people came here with the purpose of watching the fun and laughing.

The peerless genius has never lost, who doesn't want to see what he will look like when he loses.

The white-clothed elder quickly announced the start of the competition.

The white-clothed elder on the sixth battle stage shouted loudly: "Lin Mu, Jin Hao!"

As soon as the white-clothed elder finished speaking, many cultivators laughed out loud.

There was a commotion in the audience.

Some cultivators were even so excited that they whistled.

Gu Zhenhao shook his head helplessly.

"How strong is Jin Hao?" Lin Mu asked.

"He has reached the late stage of fusion, and his strength is not worse than Du Cheng." Gu Zhenhao sighed, "Du Cheng is absent, you can win a game by chance, but luck won't always be there. In this game, I think you should go up and walk through the scene, experience it, and then take the initiative to admit defeat."

Lin Mu frowned slightly, and his face suddenly became solemn.

In the late stage of fusion, his strength is equal to Du Cheng!

In his heyday, he used two peerless spiritual treasures, several spiritual magic treasures, and two Yuanyings. Although he killed Du Cheng, he was also in a mess and suffered heavy injuries.

Now that his strength has declined, is there any hope of defeating Jin Hao?

But if he goes up and walks through the scene casually and then admits defeat, Lin Mu feels a stab of pain in his heart when he thinks of this.

It was not his style to admit defeat voluntarily. Either he would fight or he would not fight.

He went up to fight and admitted defeat voluntarily. What was that?

Now that he had come here, in front of thousands of cultivators, he could not avoid fighting.

Then there is only one way to go.

Go on stage and fight!

There are only two or three cultivators who have not reached the late stage of fusion. If he wants to be in the top ten, he must defeat several cultivators in the late stage of fusion.

When Lin Mu was about to go on stage, there was a commotion in the distance of the crowd.

Several pleasant and melodious crane calls floated from afar.

Lin Mu looked up and saw four snow-white cranes flying over.

On each crane sat a graceful woman.

Many cultivators were attracted by the women on the four cranes.

Lin Mu looked from afar and found that the four women looked familiar.

The cranes flew over the crowd and flew towards the sixth battle stage, getting closer and closer.

Lin Mu looked at them carefully, and was startled, and then his face was filled with joy.

The women on the four cranes were Xu Jiao, Hua Jin, Xing Qing, and Xing Yu.

Why are they here?
