Gou Dao and Cultivation of Immortals, Start from Farming

The White Tiger Demon Saint's blood-red eyes flashed with fierce light, and his enormous divine sense swept across the entire battlefield like a raging sea. However, the source of the power supporting the three of them seemed to be the heavens and earth themselves, leaving no trace.

"Roar—! Hiding your head and showing your tail!"

The White Tiger Demon Saint roared in fury, his killing intent locking onto the three figures below whose auras were surging once again.

At this moment, the Dao Seeds within Lin Xiaolun, Tietou, and Da Niu were completely ignited by the primordial Dao power infused into them by Li Mu, and the power of the Dao principles merged into their flesh and bones, becoming the foundation of their existence.

hum!hum!hum!
The space around the three people distorted violently, and the heavy shackles of holy might were broken by an invisible force. Their hideous wounds healed and subsided rapidly under the wash of rich Daoist energy, leaving no scars. Deep in their pupils, the primordial Daos of water, fire, and earth swirled and died, emitting powerful law fluctuations that resonated with heaven and earth.

"kill!"

The three shouted fiercely, their voices shattering the remaining dark red gale!
Faced with the terrifying blood claws that were about to strike again, instead of retreating, they advanced and met the attack head-on. The sharp edge of the Saint Realm Demon Saint was the best whetstone to hone the newly formed Extreme Dao Realm!
Lin Xiaolun's figure completely blurred, transforming into a deep blue flowing light, the gentle water essence evolving into countless forms! A spiral water drill condensed, with extremely strong penetrating power, piercing straight into the weak gaps of the blood claw;
Billions of mysterious water droplets scattered, containing heavy water element, striking the claw like a torrential rain, each drop carrying the hidden force capable of shattering mountains; a viscous, deep vortex opened, coiling around it, frantically devouring and dissolving the destructive demonic power contained within the blood claw. The Way of Water in her hands was ever-changing, permeating and dissolving.

In Iron Head's eyes, the incandescent flames condensed into two tangible Dao patterns. He swung the blazing white sword embryo, unleashing wisps of purifying flame light as thin as cicada wings! The sword light contained the law of annihilation; the blood claw's ferocious demonic power ignited upon contact, like grease being set ablaze, hissing and wailing as its power was stripped away and purified layer by layer. He used the Dao of Annihilation to sever the connection of demonic power, weakening its very foundation.

The giant bull stomped its feet on the ground, causing the earth to throb like a heartbeat. The primordial energy resonated with the power of the earth's veins beneath its feet. It unleashed its fists, the primordial light undulating across their blades! An invisible, heavy pulse pierced through the demonic energy defenses on the surface of its blood claws, penetrating deep within. The massive blood claws groaned, trembling as if about to collapse.

boom! boom! boom!
The transformed power of the Dao collided fiercely with the deadly blood claws in a completely new way!
Sizzle—snap!
The three condensed blood claws shattered under the combined attack of the three, transforming into a chaotic torrent of dark red demonic energy!

The White Tiger Demon Saint's massive body trembled violently, his tiger eyes revealing an incredulous solemnity. These three tiny humans not only withstood the Saint-level killing move, but also broke through it!
The city walls fell silent for a moment, then the human cultivators erupted in a roar that seemed to shake mountains and tsunamis!

A miracle is happening!
"Roar--!"

The White Tiger Demon Saint went completely berserk! His killing move was broken by an ant, and his holy might swept away! His massive tiger body transformed into blood-red lightning, rushing straight at the three of them! His sharp claws tore through space, creating dark cracks, and descended upon them!
"Well done!" Iron Head grinned maliciously, white flame patterns burning in his eyes. He abandoned his sword, his fists covered in white flame crystal armor, the laws of incineration condensing into fist blades! Instead of retreating, he charged forward, his fists like meteors, directly clashing with the tiger's claws!

"Boom!" There was a loud noise.

Fists and claws collided, the incinerating white flames and the destructive demonic energy eroded each other wildly. Iron Head's arms trembled violently, the sound of bones cracking exploded, and blood splattered. The white flames, however, were like maggots clinging to bones, frantically drilling into the gaps in the tiger claw's demonic power, burning flesh and blood!
"laugh--!"

Black smoke rose from the tiger's paw, filling the air with a burnt stench! The intense pain made the tiger retract its paw!
Lin Xiaolun's figure glided close to the ground like a water ghost! Deep blue water light condensed at his fingertips, transforming into a fine, high-frequency vibrating Xuan Shui Diamond! Ignoring the protective demonic aura, it pierced straight at the ligaments of the White Tiger's hind leg joint!
With a "whoosh," the water drill pierced through, instantly severing the tough demonic tendon! The heavy, hidden water elemental energy contained within exploded inside!

"Awooo!" The white tiger roared in pain, its hind legs buckled, and its massive body lost its balance and lurched forward! Demonic blood splattered!

Da Niu seized the opportunity! With his feet deeply embedded in the ground, his Xuanhuang pulse resonated with the earth's veins to its peak. He roared like a raging bull, and his fists, filled with Xuanhuang light, condensed into solid hammers, slamming them hard into the vulnerable ribs of the White Tiger's waist and abdomen exposed due to its loss of balance!

With a deafening "thud," a massive, earth-shattering blow struck, the invisible, heavy pulse penetrating through skin and bones!
"Wow!" A section of the White Tiger Demon Saint's waist and abdomen visibly collapsed! His internal organs suffered a terrifying shock, and his tiger's mouth suddenly opened, spitting out a mouthful of scalding demon blood mixed with fragments of internal organs!

The sky is raining blood!
The roar from the city wall instantly choked them, turning into a collective gasp of astonishment!
"Insects! Insects! You deserve to die!"

The White Tiger Demon Saint was in extreme pain and rage, its blood-red eyes almost dripping blood! With excruciating pain in its waist and abdomen, severed tendons in its hind legs, and burns on its front paws, it violently swung its head, its steel-whip-like tiger tail tearing through space with a piercing sonic boom as it lashed out at Lin Xiaolun who was right next to it!

Lin Xiaolun's watery light receded rapidly, but she was still struck by the tail-end gale!
"Bang!" The Azure Water Domain trembled violently and disintegrated instantly. The next moment, Lin Xiaolun emerged from the other side. The water mist reassembled, and she appeared perfectly intact, with a playful smile on her face.

Iron Head and Big Bull roared and pounced, while White Flame Heavy Fist and Xuanhuang Pulse Wave once again slammed into White Tiger Demon Saint.

The White Tiger Demon Saint roared, its blood-red demonic aura exploding outwards! The violent shockwave sent the two flying! It stared intently at the three figures with soaring battle intent, its tiger mouth dripping with viscous demonic blood, and the dark golden light on its claws suddenly expanding, radiating a terrifying aura that could annihilate everything.

"kill!"

The three roared, their voices overwhelming the White Tiger's howl! Their figures moved like lightning, pouncing towards the bleeding Demon Saint!
Before the dark golden orbs on the white tiger's claws could fully form, the iron head had already arrived. The white flame crystal armor on its fists shattered and regenerated, and the law of incineration condensed on its fists, ignoring defense and specifically scorching the charred wounds on its front claws! The fist shadows rained down like a storm, slamming in fiercely!

"Pfft! Pfft!" The charred flesh was torn apart by the blazing fist force! Black smoke mixed with fresh demon blood sprayed out wildly! The white tiger's front paws were a bloody mess, and the intense pain made its movement of condensing a ball of light pause!
Lin Xiaolun's figure moved like a ghostly current, circling around to the White Tiger's severed hind leg! The deep blue water surged, transforming into hundreds of rapidly spinning Xuan Shui threads! Ignoring the demonic energy, the threads precisely pierced into the torn ligaments, frantically cutting and churning! Heavy water elemental energy exploded in a series of bursts inside the wound!

"Awooo—!" The white tiger roared in agony, its hind legs completely losing control, its massive body staggering and about to fall! Demon blood gushed out like a spring, staining the earth red!

Da Niu seized the moment when Bai Hu lost his balance! He stomped his feet on the ground, and the Xuanhuang pulse caused the earth's veins to rumble! He leaped into the air, and the Xuanhuang energy in his arms condensed into a giant hammer that could shake mountains. With a heavy Dao intent that could crush mountains, he aimed at the collapsed waist and abdomen wound and smashed it down with all his might!

"Boom! Boom!..."

A muffled thud, like the thunder of a giant drum! The colossal Xuanhuang hammer slammed solidly into the wound! Invisible pulse waves pierced through the skin and fur, reaching straight to the internal organs! The White Tiger's massive body was thrown three inches off the ground, and the wound on its waist and abdomen burst open with a deafening roar!

The White Tiger Demon Saint let out a shrill scream! Its front paws were burned, its hind legs were mangled, and its waist and abdomen were ripped open! Holy blood gushed out like a waterfall! The rage in its eyes was replaced by excruciating pain and horror. For the first time, its massive body was forced to retreat repeatedly by the three people's ferocious attack. Each step crushed the earth and left behind sticky blood pits!
The city walls were deathly silent! Everyone stared wide-eyed at the three bloodied figures who had launched a frenzied attack, forcing the arrogant demon saint to stagger backward, coughing up blood!
Ironhead's fist, dripping with demonic blood and white flames, relentlessly pursued the wound, its burning flames specifically targeting the injury!
Lin Xiaolun's severed leg was entwined with watery light, and the mysterious water threads penetrated deep into her bone marrow.

The massive ox was like a bone-deep abscess, its waist and abdomen repeatedly pounded by the heavy hammer, leaving a hole!

The White Tiger Demon Saint was struggling to defend itself, its demonic energy in disarray, and its dark golden sphere of light was completely shattered! Its once-proud holy body was riddled with holes and bleeding profusely under the relentless attack of the three's ultimate Dao principles! Its roars were now filled with undisguised pain and panic!

The tide of battle has been completely turned!
The three were like three divine weapons unsheathed, using their newly formed ultimate power to overwhelm the White Tiger Demon Saint!
Just as the White Tiger Demon Saint was in dire straits, an unexpected change occurred!
"Roar--!"

The White Tiger Demon Saint howled in agony as Iron Head, Lin Xiaolun, and Da Niu launched a fierce attack, determined to completely destroy this fiend!
boom--!
The sky is falling!

Nine indescribably terrifying auras descended without warning! Like nine destructive stars crashing down upon Tianyong City!
Gold, red, white, black, crimson, purple, gray, silver, black! Nine-colored demonic light tore through the sky, and nine towering demonic figures, like ancient demon gods, stood tall in the clouds!
The Golden Roc Great Sage's wings blotted out the sky, and his sharp eyes cleaved through the void!
The Great Sage of the Nine Heavens revealed his nine tails, his ferocious aura freezing souls!
The Great Sage White Tiger's murderous aura soared to the heavens, echoing the blood-stained kin below!

The Great Sage Xuanwu, bearing the Xuan Armor on his back, exuded an aura as heavy as a collapsing starry sea!

Red Hou Great Sage: Crimson body made of lava, exuding an aura that devours the heavens.

Purple Dragon Great Sage: Clad in purple scale fire armor, his eyes radiate an aura of destruction.

The Great Sage Gray Toad: Gray-skinned poisonous miasma, corroding and rotting spirits!
Silver Falcon Great Sage: Its silver feathers are solitary and sharp, cutting through the sky.

Mo Qi Great Sage: His ink-black body treads upon the dark yellow earth, revealing black thunder horns.

Nine great demon saints arrived together, and in an instant, demonic energy surged to the heavens, stirring up winds and clouds for thousands of miles! Their overwhelming holy might, so vast that it eclipsed the color of heaven and earth, crashed down like billions of tons of tangible water!
Snap, snap——!
The remaining protective array of Tianyong City instantly turned to dust! Large sections of the city wall collapsed silently, turning into powder!

All the cultivators on the city wall, regardless of their cultivation level, were as if they had been slammed to the ground by an invisible giant hand. Their bones cracked, blood gushed out, and they couldn't even lift their heads! A suffocating fear gripped their throats!
The entire megacity was completely locked down by nine intertwined, terrifying wills! Space froze, and time seemed to stand still!
The raging energy turbulence on the battlefield below instantly subsided.

Tie Tou, Lin Xiaolun, and Da Niu felt as if they were being crushed by a mountain. All their attacks came to an abrupt halt, their bodies stiffened, and they were pinned to the spot, unable to move. The Daoist flames burning around them were forcibly suppressed back into their bodies, like candles flickering in the wind!

The dying White Tiger Demon Saint stopped struggling, his eyes bursting with wild joy and awe!

Dead!

Absolute silence enveloped the heavens and earth! Only nine awe-inspiring holy powers roared silently!
Nine pairs of cold, indifferent, and supremely majestic holy eyes pierced through the chaotic space, through the collapsed city walls, through all obstacles, precisely and firmly locking onto a corner of the city—

The inconspicuous little courtyard where Li Mu lived!

The invisible pressure caused the air around the courtyard to completely distort and collapse, groaning under its unbearable burden.

The Golden Roc Great Sage's icy voice, piercing through eternity, resounded like a decree from the heavens, echoing throughout the frozen world:
"Fellow Daoist, good trick!"

"In just a few years, three little children have been elevated to this level!"

"Since you've already made your move, why not show yourself?!"

The roaring sound, carrying an undeniable pressure and chilling killing intent, headed straight for the small courtyard!

Li Mu pushed open the door and went out.

He was dressed in plain clothes and old shoes, completely devoid of any former life. He looked like an ordinary schoolteacher.

He raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping calmly over the nine demonic figures that blotted out the sky.

"Looking for me?" The voice was not loud, but it clearly pierced through the solidified demonic aura.

The Nine Saints' gazes suddenly focused, like a divine mountain pressing down! The ground of the courtyard cracked silently, and the courtyard walls turned into dust in a flurry!
Li Mu simply stood there.

That terrifying will, powerful enough to crush stars, fell upon him but vanished without a trace.

The wild joy in the eyes of the White Tiger Demon Saint froze. It sensed that the aura of its fellow Great Saint had been swallowed up by an invisible "void" and vanished.

The Golden Roc Great Sage's sharp, piercing gaze narrowed slightly.

Li Mu stepped forward and stood in front of the three children.

It's just one step.

With a "crack!", the space, which had been frozen like an iron plate, emitted a crisp sound of shattering glass!

The ninefold holy might shackles that had been pressing down on Tie Tou, Lin Xiaolun, and Da Niu shattered instantly, and the three of them felt lighter as the suppressed power of the Dao within them surged forth!

"gentlemen!"

Lin Xiaolun and the others looked at Li Mu with great excitement.

Throughout Tianyong City, all the human cultivators who had been pinned to the ground felt the terrifying pressure on their bodies suddenly disappear, the air began to flow again, and their congealed blood began to surge once more.

"call!"

The sounds of countless gasps blended into a suppressed whistling sound.

The nine towering demonic figures remained motionless. However, the doomsday pressure that had been locking onto the entire city was torn open, the source of which was precisely where the figure in plain clothes stood.

"Why have you gone to such great lengths to find me?" Li Mu looked up and stared directly at the Nine Saints in the clouds.

An indescribable "momentum" emanated from Li Mu's body. It was neither domineering nor fierce, but rather like the first breath of the world at its beginning—gentle, vast, and overwhelming!

The overwhelming demonic domain created by the nine saints was violently distorted and dissolved as if boiling water had been poured on snow when this aura swept over it! Dark red, crimson gold, black... all kinds of demonic light flashed wildly, emitting piercing wails.

The Nine Heavens Great Sage's nine ferocious fox tails bristled slightly; the Red Hou Great Sage's molten lava-like body emitted plumes of blue smoke; and the Purple Dragon Great Sage's eyes flickered with destructive purple lightning...
The Golden Roc Great Sage's gaze became completely fixed, and the edges of his wings silently annihilated the space around him.

The heavily injured White Tiger Demon Saint below let out a terrified low growl. Its massive body involuntarily shrank back, as if an invisible hand was choking it. It felt the pressure of its fellow Great Saint being forcibly pushed away by that seemingly gentle aura!

Li Mu looked at the Nine Saints as if he had only done a trivial matter.

The Nine Sages remained silent, the oppressive power of heaven and earth stagnated, and the Golden Roc Great Sage's eyes shone like cold stars as he questioned, "Fellow Daoist, why do you ask questions you already know the answer to? What is your intention in summoning the Mumu Clan to appear in the world and disrupting the balance of all realms?"

The Great Sage of the Nine Heavens swayed his fox tail slightly, his fierce aura surging: "The reappearance of the Ghost Clan is not your doing?"

Upon hearing this, Li Mu chuckled, a faint smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.

"If the Shepherd Clan is coming, why should I lead them?" Li Mu's voice was calm, yet carried an indescribable meaning. He looked in a certain direction and said firmly, "What is meant to come will come eventually."

Before the words were finished, a dazzling starlight appeared from afar, arriving in the blink of an eye, its target fixed on Li Mu. (End of Chapter)
