Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 294 Reunion of old friends

Under the dim light, the trembling of the Three Talents Spirit Sword gradually weakened...

Five days passed in a blink of an eye. Even Chen Mu could not bear the continuous crushing of spiritual consciousness.

But fortunately, the effort was not in vain.

Looking at the Three Talents Spirit Sword hanging motionless in the air, Chen Mu smiled in his heart and quickly left his spiritual imprint in it.

In an instant, an inexplicable connection emerged in his mind, as if with a wave of his hand, the Three Talents Spirit Sword turned freely, as if by controlling it with just one thought.

"There's still a trace of spirituality left...it's better than nothing."

After exploring for a while, Chen Mu regained his composure and flicked his fingers. Chi Xiao, Qing He and Jin Shang rushed out one after another, flying and circling in the empty space of the cave. The wisps of sword intent emitted by them made his soul tremble.

"No wonder Lin Yuanqing was killed instantly by this set of spiritual swords. If my spiritual sense was ordinary, I would also be restricted by this."

After sighing inwardly, Chen Mu waved his hand to put away the magic sword, then took out a pill and swallowed it.

No matter how tight the time is, we cannot give up our cultivation...

It's a pity that although he has inherited the art of alchemy, he has not yet reached the level of a second-level alchemist, so the elixirs he uses now are either taken from Wei Xingyou or picked from the spoils of war.

Perhaps it was due to the extraordinary foundation of his Taoism, but his speed in refining pills increased greatly. He could usually refine a second-grade low-grade pill in seven days, which was three times faster than that of an ordinary cultivator.

In this way, if he released the restrictions and refined the pills, it would not take long before all his pills would be used up.

"I still need to find an opportunity to improve my alchemy skills..."

Chen Mu secretly calculated that with his current realm and spiritual awareness, coupled with the extremely detailed second-level alchemy inheritance, he believed that refining a second-level elixir... should not be a difficult task.

Anyway, he now has sufficient resources, so there is no need to compromise his cultivation progress because of spirit stones...

Two days later, in the main hall of Yuehua Mountain.

Chen Mu and his companions sat in a corner of the hall, chatting and laughing.

The responsibility was taken on by the heads of each family, and their pressure was much less.

At the top of the hall, there were six spirit seats. At this moment, there was only a cold and beautiful woman with a veil covering her face, wearing a white robe and jade hairpins, with an extraordinary temperament.

It turned out to be Master Caiyan, the head of Yuehua Mountain who had just come out of seclusion.

Judging from the occasional fluctuations in his magical power, it was obvious that he had just broken through the realm.

"I haven't thanked my fellow disciples from the Wenjian and Shuiyun sects for their help during this crisis. I'm really being rude..."

The beautiful woman with a cool temperament chuckled softly, giving people a feeling of being bathed in spring breeze.

Shi Xin laughed heartily, cupped his hands, and replied, "This is a common calamity for all six sects. Fellow Daoist Caiyan, there's no need to be polite... But Fellow Daoist has now achieved the late stage of foundation building. If it weren't for this calamity, I would definitely congratulate you!"

Judging from his tone, he seemed to be quite familiar with Caiyan.

Cai Yan smiled slightly and was about to start chatting when she suddenly noticed that there was a guest coming outside the mountain gate.

After investigating with her spiritual sense, she smiled and said, "It turns out that fellow Taoists from all five sects have arrived together... This saves me a lot of effort."

As she spoke, she took light steps and went forward first. Seeing this, Chen Mu and others hurriedly followed.

"Hahaha... Miss Caiyan, I haven't seen you for over ten years, and you're still as charming as ever!"

Before the person even reached him, a resounding laugh could be heard. She Chengyue, dressed in a black shirt, arrived laughing, flanked by four other streaks of light. They were the other four sect leaders, though their expressions weren't as lively as his.

Behind the five of them, there are more than ten foundation-building monks, all of whom are the backbone of each sect.

"We have met Sect Master Zhou and Sect Master Qin..."

After Chen Mu and the others exchanged greetings with the foundation-building cultivators who had come with their own sect leader, Cai Yan said with a smile, "Brother She is still so free and easy. I really envy you... Please!"

After she finished speaking, she immediately turned around and led a group of monks into the hall and took their seats.

Chen Mu looked calm and when he turned to enter the hall, he was stopped by a voice.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, long time no see."

He didn't show it on his face, but when he looked in the direction of the sound, he saw a figure in a dark green dress, pursing her lips and looking at him with a smile.

"Fellow Daoist She, long time no see..." Chen Mu was startled. He subconsciously used his spiritual sense to check his cultivation. His eyes flickered as he said, "It's been a long time since we last met. Fellow Daoist She has also succeeded in building his foundation. Congratulations."

"Haha..." She Yingtan chuckled twice, trotted over and came to Chen Mu's side, just as lively as she was when she was in the Qi Condensation Realm before.

"That's no match for you. I heard from others that you are the third disciple of our generation to achieve the foundation-building stage!"

"Oh?" Chen Mu raised one eyebrow. He had never heard of this before.

Seeing his interest, She Yingtan was delighted and quickly said, "Besides Chu Li from Wenjian Pavilion and Jiang Cheng from Zifenglin, it's you from Shuiyunjian..."

"But you may not know that during this disaster, didn't my Beast Taming Sect come to help Zi Fenglin? That Jiang Cheng is truly formidable. He single-handedly killed two evil cultivators from the Hall of Eternal Life!"

"What's even more amazing is that he can actually devour the energy of evil cultivators and use it for his own benefit. It's extremely evil."

"My father told me that this is because of the mysterious magic of their Purple Maple Forest lineage, the Heavenly Purple Maple Diagram..."

She Yingtan kept talking with a smile on her face, without any sense of strangeness as if they had not seen each other for a long time. It was not until She Chengyue, who was walking in front, moved his consciousness that she wrinkled her nose, signaled to Chen Mu, and then caught up.

Chen Mu laughed in his heart, patted Niu Dali who was grinning beside him, and walked in.

Meeting old friends is indeed a joyous occasion...

Everyone took their seats one after another, and after a few greetings, Zhou Lang, the head of the Wenjian Pavilion, was the first to talk about the purpose of their trip.

"My fellow Daoists, after several battles, we all suffered losses. My junior brother Zong Lin died, and a fellow Daoist from Zifenglin and Jinguang Valley also died..."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present, regardless of whether they meant it or not, showed expressions of pity and sighing.

"The enemy is powerful, and they have other forces behind them to help them. I'm afraid we alone cannot contend with them."

Although everyone had anticipated this, they still couldn't help but feel a little worried when they heard the words from the head of the first sect in Zhao State.

"Master Zhou, since one nation alone cannot resist, why not invite several neighboring nations to join forces to resist... After all, the evil cultivators of the Eternal Life Hall have already taken the action of draining the power of spiritual veins. All cultivators here are entitled to kill them!"

It was Zhou Weiqian who stood up and bowed to tell him.

Niu Dali curled his lips upon seeing this and sent a voice message to Chen Mu: "It's obvious that he..."

Zhou Lang nodded and smiled, "I already know about this matter, and before coming here, I sent the Green Bamboo Sword Master to deliver the message according to the ancestors' instructions."

"It's estimated that in the near future, several neighboring countries will respond. Even if they don't provide full support, they will at least publicly send Foundation Establishment forces..."
