Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 218: Heart is free

In the dense forest with scattered vegetation, several breezes passed behind the few people, making the world here feel a little cool.

The black-robed monk continued to narrate the details of the place in a low voice, ignoring everyone's attention. In this environment, Wei Xingyou fell into an inexplicable and strange state.

In his trance, he seemed to see a uniquely decorated fairy palace in the far distance to the northeast, looming in the distance, but it was hard to make out clearly...

After a long time, he suddenly came back to his senses. He turned his head and happened to see Chen Mu's gaze.

"Junior Brother Chen..."

Wei Xingyou's face froze, and a hint of impatience appeared in the depths of his eyes.

Chen Mu nodded slightly, said nothing, and continued to listen to the black-robed monk's narration.

After a moment, the black-robed monk put on an apologetic smile. After making sure he had told Chen Mu everything he knew about the secret realm, he looked at Chen Mu cautiously and said, "Fellow Daoist, after a month, this is all I know..."

Hearing this, Chen Mu frowned slightly and nodded, then looked at the two wooden crown monks who were now silent.

One of them had a pale face and a wandering look in his eyes, with a trace of unconcealable resentment flashing across his face from time to time.

However, the monk Mu Guan suppressed his emotions very well. He just remained silent with a sullen face, and it seemed that he was also enduring it.

In fact, when Chen Mu cast the spell to take the fat-faced monk's life, he had no intention of letting them go.

A clan like theirs values ​​close relationships above all else. If they were to release the two of them, even if they promised before leaving that they would not seek revenge on Chen Mu, they probably wouldn't last more than three days before the Han family's descendants came looking for them...

Seeing Chen Mu's silent gaze turning towards him, Monk Muguan must have thought of this as well, and his expression suddenly darkened.

After a moment, he forced himself to calm down, knowing that no matter how much he assured Chen Mu, he would not be able to convince him, so he continued to threaten him without giving up.

"My Han family has a clan secret technique. If someone kills too many of our clan members, they will be infected with a certain aura. At that time, even if your combat power is extremely amazing, you will still not be able to escape the pursuit of our clan's foundation-building cultivators..."

"Spare our lives, and I swear on the Dao that I will never seek revenge on you!"

The monk with the wooden crown suppressed the resentment in his heart and spoke with full confidence, enunciating each word.

"The clan's secret technique?" Chen Mu frowned, thought for a moment, and then looked at the black-robed monk. He saw him nod slightly, confirming that it was true.

"The Han family does possess this clan secret technique... Several years ago, a Foundation Establishment cultivator passing by Xuanwu Island got into an argument with several Han family members. After killing them, he immediately fled thousands of miles away, but was still pursued by several Han family Foundation Establishment cultivators using this secret technique..."

The words of explanation slowly sounded, and Chen Mu suddenly felt a sense of trouble.

He was not afraid of being hunted down by the Han family members. It was just that his important mission in this secret realm had failed. If he was caught up in the endless struggle to deal with the hunt, he would definitely be affected!

Not long after, Chen Mu was thinking secretly, and suddenly his eyes twitched. He looked up at the black-robed monk with a bad look on his face.

He just shook his head and chuckled, then used his magic power to transmit his voice.

As his voice sounded in the black-robed monk's ears, the black-robed monk's expression changed from good to bad, and it seemed that he was in great trouble.

It was not until a long time later that, as the dragon's restraints dissipated, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes. He immediately swung out a powerful wind blade with flashing green light, which slightly circled around the necks of the two wooden crown monks.

"Li Detian, how dare you—"

The next moment, the Wood Crown monk's roar stopped abruptly, his head paused, and he rolled to the ground, breathless... "Fellow Daoist, I have done as you asked. Can you spare my life?"

After saying that, he patted the storage bag on his waist, took out a crescent-shaped spiritual flower about a foot in size, and handed it to Chen Mu and the others.

"Fantasy Moon Flower..."

Chen Mu's heart moved, and after motioning Wei Xingyou to take it, he chuckled and said, "Of course, you can leave now!"

The two Han family members were killed by him. Even if the Han family traced the case, they would probably trace it back to the black-robed monk.

With him attracting people outside, Chen Mu and the others can let go and have a great time.

"Thank you, fellow Daoist! Don't worry, others may be afraid of the Han family, but Fengxuan Island is not! This time, all three members of the Han family were killed by me. You can do whatever you want."

The black-robed monk was filled with excitement. The situation between life and death allowed him to reveal his true feelings. However, only he himself knew how long this emotion could last.

Looking at the black-robed monk's figure gradually going away, Chen Mu's expression relaxed a little, and his heart was in turmoil.

There are many ways to deal with the two wooden crown monks, for example, they can be eliminated by using the hands of strange beasts.

But the reason why he chose the black-robed monk and didn't kill him afterwards was such an imperfect choice...

It’s simply because it was said before.

He can kill but does not crave killing. Since he has made a promise beforehand, he will give the person a way out. This way, he can finally get what he wants.

A moment later, Wei Xingyou tore off the storage bags of the three Han family members, waved his hand and shot out a fireball to destroy the bodies.

"Junior Brother Chen, we shouldn't stay here for long. Let's go a little further."

Chen Mu had no objection, so he nodded, and the two of them jumped up together and flew towards the northeast.

After a short while, they passed through the dense forest and came to a rolling hillside.

Along the way, they passed by several places where spiritual medicines grew with obvious signs of fighting. It was estimated that they were picked by the first group of monks who came in.

The bare branches made Wei Xingyou feel distressed, so he increased his speed.

Seeing this situation, Chen Mu did not say anything to slow down, because they were still in the outer area mentioned by the black-robed monk. Apart from the monks they might encounter and the strange beasts guarding the elixirs, there were no other dangerous things worth being cautious about.

"Junior Brother Chen, my destined object is far away, probably in the center of this secret realm. We are already a month behind the previous cultivators... So, just in case, we need to speed up a bit!"

"Brother Wei, please don't be so impatient. This place is different from other places. No one knows what will happen next. It's safer for us to leave some room. Besides, they haven't come close to your destined item in a month. Perhaps we don't need to rush."

……

The vegetation is lush and full of vitality everywhere.

Chen Mu and the other man were flying at low altitude, looking excited.

Just now they took the time to deal with the storage bags of the three Han family members. They could only say that they were worthy of being the descendants of the first clan of Xuanwu Island. The things hidden in the bags really made them excited.
