Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 279 Everything is settled
Chen Mu found it interesting to see the different reactions of the three of them.

The leader probably just got the Fountain of Unity of Gods and wanted to achieve perfection, so he naturally did not want any disturbance to occur.

"All right."

Sect Leader Qin laughed and brought the four people back to their senses.

"The matter of the Palace of Eternal Life is no longer a matter between the Purple Maple Forest and Moonlight Mountain. It is the common enemy of the six sects of the Zhao Kingdom! The Zhao Kingdom has few spiritual veins to begin with, so we will not tolerate the Palace of Eternal Life dividing them up."

"However, the example of the Wood Nation is right before our eyes. We must not be careless against the enemy... Yesterday, Zhou Lang from the Sword Pavilion sent me a message saying that our two sects would go to support the weaker Yuehua Mountain lineage, while the Golden Light Valley and the Beast Taming Sect would go to the Purple Maple Forest to provide assistance."

"Although we are providing full support, our sect's mountain gate cannot be left unattended. I originally wanted to ask Junior Sister Lin, Junior Nephews Chen and Niu to stay, but now I have a new bottle of Heshen Spring, and I feel that the state of perfect foundation building is just around the corner, so I can only trouble you for a while."

Sect Leader Qin spoke slowly, and finally looked at Lin Shuyun and the other two.

Lin Shuyun laughed when he heard this and said, "Brother, what are you talking about? You are the headmaster, so naturally you have to stay behind to guard the sect!"

Niu Dali followed closely behind and said, "That's right! If Master hadn't stopped me, I would have gone to the borderland long ago. This is just the right time to fulfill my wish!"

After saying this, he waved his fist, not caring at all about the deep demeanor of the foundation-building cultivator.

Unexpectedly, these words caused Shi Xin's brows to tense up, and he immediately shouted, "Stop you for your own good! How about this, after you and Chen Mu go to the border, follow closely behind Junior Sister Lin and me."

Seeing that he was serious, Niu Dali had no choice but to nod in disappointment and agreed.

After a while, the deacon disciple came back with several more jade talismans in his hand.

"Junior Brother Chen, please come forward and choose." Sect Leader Qin chuckled.

Chen Mu bowed and said yes, then stepped forward to take the jade talisman with a hint of anticipation in his heart, and then concentrated on investigating it.

"Vine Soul Wood Armor... low-level magic..."

"Mysterious Light Crane Pattern Wall... low-level magic..."

"Starfire escape technique... low level..."

……

After reading several jade talismans in a row, Chen Mu looked a little dazed, as if he still hadn't read enough.

But after looking around, he felt that there was no technique that was quite suitable for him.

For example, the Vine Soul Wooden Armor and the Starfire Escape Technique are incompatible with his five elements. Even if he succeeds in practicing them with the help of spiritual objects, the power he exerts is far less than that of others, which can be said to be half the result with twice the effort.

However, the Xuanguang Crane Pattern Wall had nothing to do with the Five Elements, so he could choose to cultivate...

Perhaps sensing his dilemma, Sect Leader Qin shook his head and smiled, "Junior Brother Chen, precious techniques are precious. These already comprise the majority of our sect's collection. As for the higher, intermediate, and even advanced levels, cultivation requires specific spiritual objects to guide it, which isn't particularly suitable for the current situation..."

Chen Mu nodded after hearing this, and made up his mind to leave the jade talisman with the mysterious crane pattern on the wall.

"Then disciple will choose this technique!"

Since the escape technique is not suitable, it is easier to use my own escape light, so let's put it aside for now.

"That's very good." Upon seeing this, Sect Leader Qin put away the other jade talismans and waved his sleeves. Three rays of light quietly appeared in the air above the hall, each with a different color and alternating spiritual charm.

But they are three defensive spiritual weapons!

Two small gold and jade shields of different sizes, and a round, shining gray stone bead.

Chen Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, used his spiritual sense to look carefully, and found that they were all low-level spiritual weapons. Only the exquisite jade-colored small shield had a slightly stronger spiritual aura, close to the middle level.

While spells have many limitations, spiritual weapons are not that difficult to choose. Chen Mu thought for a moment before putting the small jade shield into his pocket.

At this point, all matters had been discussed and settled, leaving Sect Leader Qin and the others with only one remaining doubt...

"Junior Brother Chen, I heard from Zhou Lang that you defeated a Foundation Establishment Sword Cultivator in public at Wenjian Pavilion, and you used... the sword-controlling technique?"

Sect Leader Qin looked serious and asked slowly.

Chen Mu's heart moved when he heard this, and he nodded and said, "Yes, it is true."

He had thought of this situation before coming, so he was not surprised and admitted it directly.

"Where did you get the sword-controlling technique?" Without waiting for Sect Leader Qin to respond, Shi Xin asked anxiously.

"Senior Brother Shi!" Lin Shuyun shouted loudly, and his expression seemed to be blaming Shi Xin for questioning Chen Mu like this.

Chen Mu didn't notice anything, and smiled slightly and said, "I got it from Master Shuiyun!"

"Ancestor Shuiyun!"

The four people present were all shocked, and they thought of Chen Mu’s previous trip to the Ancestral Hall.

"No wonder..." Sect Master Qin nodded slightly. Because he had never seen Chen Mu perform swordsmanship on the spot, he didn't even think of the ancestral hall. He thought it was an ownerless inheritance obtained by Chen Mu, so he chose to help Chen Mu conceal it by hinting at the Sword Pavilion.

I didn't expect that in the end, it would actually be my own inheritance...

"If that's the case, I hope Junior Brother Chen can record this sword technique inheritance to add to the heritage of our sect." Sect Leader Qin's eyes lit up and he advised in a kind way, without mentioning Chen Mu's original concealment.

Chen Mu nodded, and immediately took out a blank jade talisman, recorded the Nong Yu Jing Tao sword-controlling technique and Zhi Shui Yu Lian attacking technique, and then handed it to Sect Master Qin.

When he said it frankly, it meant that he would not hide these two sword techniques. After all, this was an important means for him to deal with the enemy. He could not hide it in future fights, and his master would find out sooner or later. So it would be better for him to contribute actively and add some credit.

Sect Leader Qin took the jade talisman and looked at it attentively. When he saw the sword-controlling technique contained in it, he was suddenly shocked.

"It's actually a mid-level treasure!"

"What?" Shi Xin and the other two heard his exclamation and were so anxious that they urged him on.

After a round of observation, Shi Xin heaved a sigh of relief, nodded repeatedly and praised, "Only now do I have to admit that Junior Brother Chen is truly a man of great luck!"

The concept of luck is very mysterious. No one can confirm its existence, but it cannot be completely denied. In the end, it can only be attributed to God's will.

"Good job, kid..." Niu Dali glanced at Chen Mu happily and muttered incoherently.

After a delightful conversation, Sect Leader Qin stood up, stepped forward, and said loudly, "It's settled. You all should return quickly and make preparations. Three days from now, Junior Brother Shi and Junior Sister Lin will lead the way, along with Chen Mu and the others, to Yuehua Mountain to protect the Zhao Kingdom's spiritual vein!"

"Yes!"

The four of them bowed in agreement and then turned and left.

After chatting with Niu Dali for a while, Chen Mu returned to the Duhai Cliff without stopping.

We don’t know what kind of dangers we will encounter on this trip to Yuehua Mountain, so we must not be careless. The key is to quickly integrate our own strength.

For three days, I couldn't practice the Mysterious Light Crane Pattern Wall, but I was able to refine the Jade Light Small Shield...

Chen Mu secretly calculated in his heart, waved his hand and released water-colored magic power, which wrapped around the small jade shield and refined it.
