Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 461: Nanming Mountain and Luotian Pond

The wind howled in the temple and the rain gradually stopped.

Chen Mu stood with his hands behind his back, secretly feeling the speed at which his Dan light was being depleted, like a dam bursting.

Although he appears so relaxed on the surface, he is actually feeling serious inside.

Lingshu Qingyuan Zhenshui was originally a mid-grade magical power. Now that he was using all his strength and inheriting the magical powers of six people, the speed at which the elixir light and magic power were consumed had reached an unprecedented level.

This is under the premise that the six people are all using water magic. If they use other magical powers, it will only be more difficult for him.

But putting all that aside, the performance of Lingshu Qingyuan True Water still made him extremely happy...

Under the bright water color, it seemed like a void space, as if no matter what kind of magical power or technique one possessed, nothing could be created if one sank into it.

Chen Mu had a feeling that if one day it could contain all the water veins in the world, Lingshu Qingyuan True Water could even become a small world in itself...

However, this state was too far away from him at the moment, so he just fantasized about it and then suppressed it in his heart.

"All right."

Suddenly, Taoist Lihuo spoke slowly and waved his hand. Chen Mu's water-colored light quietly dissipated, and along with it, there were signs of the elixir light of the other five people.

Upon seeing this, Patriarch Tianxing burst into laughter and quickly continued:
"Chen Mu's performance, I'm sure you all have witnessed it... In my opinion, he is the best candidate for the title of Lord of Heaven and Earth!"

As soon as these words came out, Hu Yilan showed an unwilling look on his face. The Jiuze Xuan Sword was taken away, but he still had other means. If he persisted, he might have a chance to win. However, the two ancestors spoke at this time, obviously targeting the Jinsang lineage!
The disciples of the Tianxing lineage didn't care what he thought. They cheered when they heard his words. Some disciples in the Foundation Establishment stage even came out to become his disciples and begged Chen Mu to accept them as his disciples.

Chen Mu has already formed a golden elixir, and now he has obtained the Chongtian Changhe. With such combat power, his status in the sect will surely rise steadily in the future. If he can become his disciple, his own status will also rise, and his hope of achieving the golden elixir will greatly increase.

Although the idea is good and the person is smart and knows how to seize opportunities, Chen Mu has no intention of taking him as a disciple at this time, so he naturally would not agree.

"Chen Mu, you have won this duel, and I am not one to go back on my word." The old Taoist Lihuo said in a clear voice with a blank expression, "The Long River of the Heavens is a natural spiritual object. I hope you can receive the blessing of heaven and cultivate well. Don't waste the natural gift without making any progress..."

After saying that, he threw down an order and flew into Chen Mu's waist in the blink of an eye.

Chen Mu seemed to sense something and picked up the Mountain and River Token to look at it. He saw a new line of characters appear next to his name: Lord of the Heavy Heaven and Long River...

"It's done." He was delighted and immediately bowed his hands in thanks: "Disciple thanks the ancestor."

After the Taoist priest Lihuo nodded, he left without stopping.

The cloud couch beside him also showed signs of leaving, but before leaving, the Yunxi Patriarch chuckled and said, "You are very good..."

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he also bowed to see him off.

Patriarch Yunxi has a calm personality and never gets involved in the dispute between Lihuo and Tianxing. This is the first time that he has openly praised a disciple of Tianxing.

As expected, Taoist Tianxing chuckled when he heard this. Just as he was about to brag to Yunxi, he found that her figure slowly dissipated and had already gone far away.

"Hey, boring..." Tianxing Taoist could only wave his hand, then looked at Chen Mu and said: "You are really good, you have not lost my face... When you leave the mountain, remember to go to Tianxing Mountain."

After saying this, without waiting for Chen Mu's response, he also shook his sleeves and stood up and walked away.

The Nascent Soul ancestors left, and the atmosphere suddenly became lively. Aside from the Lihuo and Jinsang lineages, who left with gloomy faces, the rest of the group congratulated Chen Mu warmly. Even those who had just predicted Chen Mu's defeat smiled, as if nothing had happened before. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Chen Mu had already caught the eyes of the ancestors, and his future was limitless. If they didn't make friends now, wouldn't it be a waste of such a great opportunity?
Chen Mu walked politely, and although he won the battle, his face was calm and composed, without a trace of arrogance or complacency. He fluttered his robe sleeves and walked out slowly and steadily.

In response to everyone's congratulations, he was very polite and invited everyone to visit Yunze Island another day.

But the date was naturally set after returning to the mountain...

After everyone he knew had said goodbye to Chen Mu one by one, he came before the Sect Master, Tianguang Zhenren, and bowed, saying, "Master, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Although the ancestor has given me an order, I still need some guidance from the headmaster on how to use the long river of heaven to practice.

Tianguang Zhenren also bowed in return, laughing heartily and saying, "Junior Brother Chen has been blessed by spiritual objects, and his path to enlightenment has become increasingly smooth. I estimate that it won't take many years for him to catch up with me..."

By then, I will be embarrassed to ask you to call me Uncle Master based on our status as disciples. Please call me Brother Daoist."

Chen Mu smiled slightly and replied, "Master's lineage comes first, not to mention that my uncle and my master are from the same lineage. If I mess up the generations, even my master won't tolerate me..."

Upon hearing this, Tianguang Zhenren laughed out loud, and his evaluation of Chen Mu increased a bit. After chatting with him for a few words, he told him the key points of practicing the spirit of the origin of the long river.

As he left, he said with deep meaning, "Junior Brother Chen, work hard on your cultivation. You will definitely have a place in our sect in the future!"

Looking at the departing figure of Tianguang Zhenren, Chen Mu's heart moved. The position he was talking about at this time might not be a simple position of elder...

……

After a long time, Fengli Island returned to peace again, with only the drizzle drifting in the wind showing the difference.

Chen Mu did not go to the Chongtian River immediately, but went back to Yunze Island to restore his magic power before leaving.

According to Tianguang Zhenren, the long river of heaven covers tens of millions of miles, and the original spirit is at the beginning of the long river, that is, in the Tianchi Lake on Nanming Mountain.

Nanming Mountain is a well-known Taoist mountain in the Fushan River. Thousands of years ago, an old ancestor came to this mountain to build a Taoist temple, which was very famous at that time.

Unfortunately, as time passed, the ancestor passed away, and Nanming Mountain was chosen as the base for the mountain protection formation. The source of the Long River of the Heavens was here...

Chen Mu walked on the clouds and saw the trace of Nanming Mountain in a moment. Then he descended his light and landed on the top of Nanming Mountain, next to the Tianchi Lake that stretched for hundreds of miles.

"Which uncle's Dharma body descended here?"

Sensing the commotion, many disciples stationed on the mountain rushed out in a hurry. After seeing Chen Mu's figure, they recognized his identity after a little thought.

"Uncle Chen is here in person..."

Their faces lit up with joy, and they bowed repeatedly and asked, "Excuse me, uncle, are you here to obtain spirits for cultivation?"

A few days ago, Chen Mu fought a battle on Fengli Island. Although they were unable to witness it with their own eyes due to their garrison duties, they heard it clearly and knew the whole story.

Chen Mu smiled and nodded without saying anything. After waving his hand to dismiss everyone, he took out the Mountain and River Token.

He lowered his eyes and looked at it, a thoughtful look appeared on his face at first, then he smiled slightly, shook his hand, and the token turned into a ray of spiritual light and broke into the Tianchi Lake.

The next moment, dewdrops scattered, silver beads splashed, and the pool water gurgled and vibrated. Suddenly, a sharp whistle like piercing the clouds and splitting the rocks was heard, and a water-colored figure broke out of the water, soaring up, intending to go straight to the sky!
