Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

After giving instructions to Qin Wentong, Li Mu let Min Mo leave first.

Watching Min Mo's departing back, Li Mu's face darkened.

Judging from the conversation just now, there is no doubt that Elder Min is an insider sent by the Demon Abyss. However, it is still unknown whether he can successfully distract the Demon Abyss's attention away from the Qixuan Sect by spreading the news that he is going to travel far away and use himself as a lure.

"Forget it. Anyway, the plan has already begun. We can only take it one step at a time." Li Mu sighed inwardly, looked at Qin Wentong, and solemnly instructed: "Elder Qin, the sect is now in your hands. Please help me keep an eye on it. Also, keep an eye on Elder Min."

Qin Wentong nodded and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, Sect Master. I will secretly monitor Elder Min's every move and will never let her take advantage of any opportunity. At the same time, I will also strengthen the inspection and defense within the sect to ensure the safety of the sect."

Li Mu nodded slightly, and nodded with satisfaction: "Elder Qin, I always trust you to do things. Remember, if you find any abnormality, report it to the sect immediately. The opponent is definitely not something you can resist."

"Yes, I will do as the sect leader instructs!" Qin Wentong responded solemnly.

Li Mu said nothing more, turned around and left the Sect Master's Mansion, took Xue'er with him, and flew to Xuantian Sword Sect on his sword.

The next day, before dawn, a faint golden hue appeared on the eastern horizon. In Xuantian Sword Sect, the atmosphere on the Sword Questioning Peak was particularly solemn, and the air seemed to be filled with the chill of sword energy.

Xuantian Sword Sect, Wenjian Peak.

With Qiu Yuanhong's courtesy, Xiao Shuang, Yun Yi, two combined sword cultivators, and a group of virtual refining and spirit transformation cultivators appeared on the teleportation platform. Li Mu was also among them, protected by the two combined cultivators on the left and right. Although his cultivation was not high among the crowd, his identity was extremely special. He was a supreme elder who could refine a seventh-level Dao sword.

"Elder Yun, Elder Xiao, the journey is long and full of dangers. Please take good care of Elder Li." Qiu Yuanhong solemnly warned, his eyes full of expectations and trust.

Yun Yi and Xiao Shuang looked at each other and nodded in agreement. Yun Yi said, "Don't worry, Elder Qiu. We will do our best to protect Elder Li."

Li Mu also bowed and said, "Thank you for your concern, Elder Qiu. I will do my best on this trip and live up to the trust of the sect."

After everyone said goodbye, the teleportation platform lit up with dazzling light. Everyone felt a powerful force enveloping them, and then their eyes went dark as they passed through an endless void.

Li Mu and his party were teleported to the Wanxing Sea, and then transferred to a warship and headed towards the Southern Wilderness Spirit Territory.

With Li Mu's departure, a few days later, Mei Xiao quietly returned to the main hall where the three demon lords were staying. She looked a little tired, but her eyes were shining with excitement.

While traveling quickly, Meixiao organized the information he had collected in his mind and prepared to report to the three demon lords.

Arriving outside the hall, Meixiao stopped and waited patiently for the summons from the three demon lords.

Soon, a low sound of footsteps was heard in the hall, and Shadow Demon Lord, Soul Devouring Demon Lord and Blood Refining Demon Lord appeared one after another. Their appearance instantly filled the originally empty hall with a murderous aura, and the atmosphere became solemn and tense.

Meixiao stood outside the hall and could feel the invisible pressure. She adjusted her breath and quickly stepped into the hall.

The three demon lords all looked at Mei Xiao. The gazes that were a mixture of scrutiny and expectation made Mei Xiao's heart tremble. She knew the importance of this report, so she quickly calmed her inner fluctuations and bowed respectfully.

"Master Demon, after these days of in-depth research, Mei Xiao has collected important information about Li Mu, and I am here to report."

The voice of Charm Owl echoed in the empty hall, clear and firm, and the three Demon Lords were all cheered up.

“Speak!” The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord nodded slightly, his eyes flashing with the desire to know Li Mu’s whereabouts.

"Yes, I learned that Li Mu was looking for the whereabouts of the Ji Yang Secret Realm everywhere, so I took the risk to return to the Qixuan Sect and forged a clue about the Ji Yang Secret Realm in an attempt to lure him out." Meixiao nodded and introduced in detail.

Meixiao's words were clear and pleasant to the ear, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of the three demon lords.

"The Extreme Yang Secret Realm?" The Blood Shadow Demon Lord exclaimed in surprise.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord and the Shadow Demon Lord looked at each other and were equally shocked. If nothing unexpected happened, the extremely yang secret realm that Li Mu was looking for should be another sealed place.

Before, the Blood Demon Lord Dana and the Immortal Demon Lord Tianjue both died in the battle with him for several sealed places. Now, three sealed places, the Extreme Yin Seal, the Polar Seal, and the Nether Water Seal, have fallen into the hands of Xuantian Sword Sect because of him.

These sealed places are the key to open the passage between the two worlds, but now they have been lost one after another because of him. This kid is simply their nemesis! No wonder the Demon Lord is so angry! He wants them to kill him as soon as possible.

Mei Xiao was slightly startled, not understanding what was wrong with the three demon lords! Did he do something wrong? Is there any other origin of this Jiyang Secret Realm?

"What's the result! Did he fall for it?" The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord continued to ask while looking at Charm Owl.

"Master Demon Lord," Mei Xiao took a deep breath, a sly look flashed in his eyes, and he said, "Li Mu was indeed attracted by the clues we forged, but he did not fall for it directly."

“Oh?” The Blood Shadow Demon Lord raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little surprised by Li Mu’s reaction, and asked with concern: “Then how did he react?”

"After learning about the clues of Jiyang Secret Realm, Li Mu showed great interest, but he did not act rashly. He seemed to have to complete the task of Xuantian Sword Sect and had no time. He is currently preparing to go to other spiritual realms. I don't know whether this is true or not. I would like to ask the three Demon Lords to mobilize manpower to help verify the recent actions of Xuantian Sword Sect." Mei Xiao responded, paused for a moment, and then added: "In addition, this person is cunning by nature and will not easily believe in attributes. He is very likely to continue to investigate this clue secretly, or mobilize his network of relationships to try to confirm the authenticity of this information."

"Well done. I'll order Chi Mo to help you verify this matter." The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord nodded and met Mei Xiao's request.

"Humph, this kid is indeed cunning. We must be on guard against this matter." The Blood Refining Demon Lord snorted coldly and looked at the Charming Owl and asked: "However, this also shows how much he values ​​the Jiyang Secret Realm. If he continues to investigate this matter, then what are you going to do next?"

"Don't worry, Lord Demon, I have already arranged this matter." Mei Xiao smiled slightly, with confidence shining in his eyes, and continued to introduce with a smile: "This place itself is the remains of an ancient battlefield, and there are many powerful prohibitions. I have arranged it in advance and released more clues. It will definitely be able to make the fake real and confirm that I have reached the entrance of the Jiyang Secret Realm. At the same time, I will arrange people to keep an eye on the path to the 'Jiyang Secret Realm' at all times. As long as they find it, they will report to me immediately."

"Good, very good, turning passive into active, your action plan is good." After listening to the content of Meixiao's plan, the Blood Refining Demon Lord couldn't help but nod his praise, and kindly reminded: "However, you must be careful not to show your hand. This person is cunning and suspicious. Once he notices the trap and alerts the enemy, it will be difficult to catch him in the future." "Yes, I understand." After receiving the affirmation from the Blood Refining Demon Lord, Meixiao was delighted and quickly responded: "I will act carefully to ensure that this plan can go smoothly."

The Soul Devouring Demon Lord turned around and looked outside the palace, summoned the Demon Lord Chi Mo to his front, and ordered: "Chi Mo, quickly go and investigate whether Xuantian Sword Sect has recently transferred a large number of troops, especially the movements of Li Mu. Once you find any trace of Li Mu, report to me immediately."

"Yes!" Chi Mo responded happily, and then his figure flashed and disappeared in the hall.

"Meixiao, you go back to Qixuan Sect and continue to stay there. You must be careful and don't reveal your identity easily." The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord looked at Meixiao and warned.

"Yes, I understand." Meixiao responded respectfully, bowed to the three demon lords, then turned and left the hall.

----

The Wanxing Sea is full of rippling blue waves and shining stars. Tianxing Island is like a bright pearl, inlaid in this vast sea of ​​stars. This is the residence of Xuantian Sword Sect and the holy place for cultivation that countless cultivators dream of.

After coming out of the teleportation array, while the large army was resting and preparing to set out for the Southern Wilderness Spirit Territory, Li Mu appeared on Wanxing Island and wandered around.

Li Mu strolled on the streets of Wanxing Island, feeling the island's rich spiritual energy and the enthusiasm of the monks. He was dressed in a green shirt and had an extraordinary temperament, attracting the attention of passers-by.

At the auction venue of Wanbao Pavilion, eyes were full of people, and Li Mu made large bids again and again. Each bid caused a small sensation. Soon, he collected a large number of high-level spiritual objects, including rare spiritual medicines and precious minerals.

During the break of the auction, Li Mu went to Tianji Tower to find a fortune teller to calculate the secrets of the future.

Tianji Tower stands majestically in the center of Wanxing Island. The simple and elegant building complements the prosperous Wanbao Pavilion opposite, showing a unique charm. Lu Zhuo, the branch owner of Tianji Tower, a cultivator in the Lianxu realm, is sitting quietly in the elegant room in the building, waiting for today's visitor.

The white-haired Lu Zhuo had eyes as deep as stars, as if he could see through everything in the world and all illusions. He was dressed in a blue shirt, with an extraordinary temperament, giving people a sense of transcendence.

When Li Mu stepped into the Tianji Tower, Lu Zhuo's attention was immediately attracted. He quickly stood up and greeted the young incarnation cultivator with a warm smile on his face.

"Master Li, I've heard of your name for a long time. After meeting you today, I can see that you are indeed a rare talent with an imposing manner!" Lu Zhuo greeted him warmly. His voice was calm and magnetic, making people feel particularly cordial.

Li Mu nodded slightly, responding to Lu Zhuo's enthusiasm: "Master Lu, thank you for the compliment. I came here today to ask you for advice on the art of heavenly secrets and to predict my future fortune."

"Master Li, why do you need me to calculate the secrets of heaven? It seems you are also proficient in divination!" Lu Zhuo looked at Li Mu with a smile and pointed out.

"Haha, a doctor should not treat himself, and the same is true for divination." Li Mu laughed and responded frankly: "Master Lu is indeed a discerning person. I do know a little about divination, but as the saying goes, everyone has their own expertise. The Tianji Tower's Tianji technique is extensive and profound, so I naturally want to experience it myself."

Hearing this, Lu Zhu nodded and praised: "Master Li is too modest. Since you have this intention, I will naturally not refuse."

He waved his sleeves lightly, and suddenly, the light in the entire elegant room became soft, as if entering a mysterious space. Lu Zhuo formed seals with his hands, muttered something, and a mysterious aura spread.

As a grand master of weapon refining, Li Mu's appearance, exposure of his whereabouts, participation in the Wanbao Pavilion auction, large-scale bidding, entry into the Tianji Tower, and his various high-profile actions in searching for the owner of the Tianji Tower immediately attracted the attention of many high-level cultivators and also attracted the attention of the Demonic Abyss forces in the Wanxing Sea.

However, Li Mu's high-profile behavior actually had another meaning. He was willing to take risks and use himself as bait in order to attract the attention of the Demon Abyss forces that were staring at the Qixuan Sect, so as to prevent the Qixuan Sect from being attacked and the high-level spiritual plants planted in the Qixuan Sect from being damaged.

On this trip, he was protected by two combined sword cultivators and many high-level Xuantian Sword Sect cultivators. Even if the Demon Abyss forces knew his whereabouts, they would not dare to act rashly without gathering their strength. After entering the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm, there were Sword Masters Feng and Chen to support him, so his safety would not be a problem.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, half a month has passed. The cultivators of Xuantian Sword Sect have been preparing intensively. They formed a fleet composed of countless spirit swords of all sizes, and set out from Tianxing Island, rushing towards the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm.

Not long after, Chi Mo received news from the Wanxing Sea. Because the information was about Li Mu, his face was solemn and he presented the information to the three Demon Lords immediately.

"Master Demon, Li Mu has appeared in the Wanxing Sea!"

Chi Mo handed the secret letter to the Soul Devouring Demon Lord and reported.

"What? He actually ran to the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm!" The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord took the secret letter, scanned the contents, his face suddenly changed, and his anger was beyond words.

They traveled thousands of miles from the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm to the Central Plains Spirit Realm in order to complete the task assigned by the Immortal Demon God and kill Li Mu, the potential threat. However, they never thought that Li Mu was so good at running that he actually went to the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm.

The Soul-Devouring Demon Lord took a deep breath, and the anger in his heart could not be calmed for a long time.

"Brother, what should we do? Should we return to the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm immediately?" The Shadow Demon Lord looked at the Soul Devouring Demon Lord with an anxious look on his face. Their mission this time was forced upon them by the Immortal Demon God. If they were to resolve it too early, the consequences would be disastrous.

The Blood Refining Demon Lord clenched his fists, his eyes flashing with a fierce light, and he gritted his teeth and said, "This boy is extremely cunning, but we can't let him lead us by the nose. Since he dares to go to our territory, we must make sure he never returns!"

The Soul Devouring Demon Lord took a deep breath and calmed down his anger. A calm light flashed in his eyes. He said in a deep voice, "Xue Lian has a point. But we can't let our guard down. This guy is an expert in both formations and weapons. He can set up a teleportation formation. If we rashly go to the Southern Wasteland Spirit Realm, he might use the formation to escape again. The Seven Mysterious Sect is his lair. If we leave the Central Plains Spirit Realm, I'm afraid it will give him an opportunity to take advantage of us. In the end, we will suffer no good."

"Shadow, your concerns are reasonable." The Soul Devouring Demon Lord nodded slightly, his eyes flashing with thought: "But Li Mu must have a purpose for going deep into the Southern Wilderness Spirit Realm this time. He may want to take this opportunity to look for something. Is it possible that he has discovered other sealed places?"

"We can't let him lead us by the nose." The Soul Devouring Demon Lord said in a deep voice, "But we can't just sit back and watch. I suggest that we split up and act. Some people stay in the Zhongzhou Spiritual Territory to continue monitoring the movements of the Seven Profound Sect, while the other part follows us back to the Southern Wilderness Spiritual Territory to hunt down this kid."

Shadow Demon Lord thought for a moment, looked at Blood Refining Demon Lord, and suggested, "Let's do this. Blood Refining, you stay in Zhongzhou, and we will rush back to the Southern Wasteland. We will use the power of Demon Abyss in the Southern Wasteland Spirit Realm to lay a net and leave him nowhere to escape."

After discussing, the three demon lords decided to act according to this plan. They quickly allocated personnel, some of whom stayed in the Zhongzhou Spirit Realm, and the other part followed them back to the Nanhuang Spirit Realm. (End of this chapter)
