Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 74: Aiming to Illuminate the Void
"The suggestion of Shichuan Sword... Is the intelligence of the magic weapon so mature?" Chen Mu wondered secretly.

At the urging of Zhang Laodao, everyone stepped forward and touched the light shield in front of them with their hands.

Chen Mu also stretched out his right hand and slowly approached the seemingly invisible light in front of him.

In the blink of an eye, his palm seemed to have touched a solid object, causing ripples on the surface of the light shield.

The next moment, a cold voice sounded in his ears.

"People choose me, and I choose people..."

Chen Mu was shocked, but then he calmed down.

Because other people also had the same expression at this time, it seemed that he was not the only one who heard the cold voice.

"Don't pay attention to it, quickly probe into the spiritual thoughts!"

Zhang Laodao suddenly spoke, then looked at Zhu Yuelian and said with a smile: "You go too, I've asked for a reward for you..."

Zhu Yuelian, who was originally curious, was delighted when she heard this. She bowed deeply to Zhang Laodao and said, "Thank you, Master!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he hurried to the light shield and stretched out his right hand, leaving Zhang Laodao alone standing there with a satisfied smile on his face.

Chen Mu took a deep breath, and the light shield seemed to be non-existent, allowing his spiritual thoughts to easily penetrate into it.

As soon as he entered, he felt something and discovered that the several rays of light that were originally swimming freely suddenly slowed down and swayed faintly, as if they were carefully observing Chen Mu.

Chen Mu calmed down his thoughts, remained calm, and silently drove his spiritual thoughts to wander within the light shield.

After a while, two rays of light flew over rapidly and stopped around his spiritual thoughts.

Chen Mu's heart moved, and he looked carefully, only to see the two rays of light fade away, revealing two magical weapons hidden there.

A three-inch long dark knife with strange white patterns on it. Chen Mu stared at it, and his mind actually felt a slight tingling sensation...

"The first thing I see is a fine magical instrument that can influence spiritual thoughts...Shichuan Cave is indeed worthy of its name."

Chen Mu withdrew his spiritual thoughts slightly and turned to look at another magic weapon.

It was a small green wooden seal, which was now emitting vigorous vitality, making his mind feel comfortable.

"Sen Luo..."

Chen Mu softly read the two simple characters engraved on the small seal, and fell into deep thought, thinking about the purpose of the small seal...

"Ha ha ha ha……"

A burst of chuckle interrupted Chen Mu's thoughts. Chen Mu looked carefully and found that it was a disciple of Dutian Peak. He happily retreated to the side holding a large tiger-head sword, stroking the sword from time to time, looking like he had found a treasure.

Chen Mu smiled and ignored it, concentrating on dealing with the several magical weapons that came one after another...

After more than half an hour, there was still a quarter of an hour left before the deadline.

Including Zhu Yuelian, there were a total of eleven disciples, and now only Chen Mu, Niu Dali and Zong Bing were left.

Chen Mu was not at all panicked. He looked at the seven magical weapons in front of him for a long time. Although he was always calm, he now felt it difficult to make a decision.

After thinking for a while, Chen Mu suppressed the mixed thoughts in his mind and his thoughts suddenly surged towards a magic weapon.

A handleless flying sword, with blades on both sides as thin as cicada wings. Under the reflection of the flowing light, two small characters appeared on one side of the sword body, exuding a hint of coldness... The whole body was as white as jade, hanging in the air as if nothing. When it felt Chen Mu's spiritual thoughts coming, it actually took the initiative to meet it.

"Zhao Kong..."

Chen Mu muttered to himself, and after selecting the magic weapon, his spiritual thoughts no longer glanced at other magic weapons. In a flash, he took the Zhaokong Sword and left the light shield.

After stepping aside and standing still, Chen Mu raised his hand. The Zhaokong Sword was hanging in his hand and turning constantly. He smiled slightly and put the Zhaokong Sword away with his backhand.

After a while, Niu Dali and Zong Bing also retreated one by one. Zong Bing, just as Chen Mu expected, chose a killing weapon, the Soul Shocking Drum.

But Niu Dali went beyond his expectations and came over holding a stone sculpture of a black bull the size of a stone bench.

"Junior Brother Niu, what is this? Could it be that you were overwhelmed by the choices and chose the one that seemed most familiar?"

Lin Xuanming on the side said sarcastically with a forced smile.

Ever since Niu Dali made it clear that he didn't take him seriously and snatched the spot for Du Tianfeng, Lin Xuanming seemed to have abandoned his previous sweet words and treacherous deeds, changed his strategy, and started to target him openly.

Niu Dali's smile faded, and he snorted disdainfully. He walked straight past Lin Xuanming and shouted to Chen Mu, "Look, I brought back a big baby!"

Lin Xuanming's mouth corners flattened and his expression gradually became ugly.

He would rather Niu Dali fight him in a rage instead of ignoring him like this!
He suddenly turned around and stared at Niu Dali's back.

After a moment, Lin Xuanming's eyes were blank, his face expressionless, and it seemed that he had suppressed his anger...

Seeing this, Chen Mu patted Niu Dali and signaled him not to be careless.

Niu Dali smiled and nodded, then put away the black bull stone sculpture in his arms.

Zhang Laodao watched this little episode with great interest. Then he waved his hand with a serious expression and said, "Now that you have chosen, leave quickly."

"Yes."

Everyone bowed and left the cave.

"Junior Sister Zhu, we'll meet again some other day. We're leaving now."

Chen Mu and others said goodbye to Zhu Yuelian and left the cave under the gaze of Zhang Laodao.

Going back along the original path, the further out you go, the farther the distance between the two peaks becomes...

After a while, Chen Mu put away the Wind Pattern Cloud Banner and slowly landed on the Crossing the Sea Cliff.

Push the door open and sit cross-legged.

Chen Mu poured out the savings from the storage bag and checked them one by one.

First, there were a full one hundred mid-grade spirit stones, mixed with more than a hundred low-grade spirit stones.

The Zhaokong Sword and the Qingteng Lion Head Shield were placed on one side, and on the other side were some bottles and jars, most of which contained the Heyuan Pills awarded this time, and there was also a bottle of Yiyang Pills left over from before.

In addition to these important items, there are also several demon pills and spiritual materials on the demon's body that are worth a lot of money.

The rest were some rare spiritual materials he had accidentally obtained in the past few years, which he had collected. He never knew when they would be useful...

“It’s not easy to be so wealthy…

Looking at the numerous resources in front of him, Chen Mu couldn't help but sigh.

But he immediately looked more cheerful and optimistic.

"This amount of resources is enough for me to practice for a long time... Next, I will concentrate on practicing for a while."

Chen Mu thought about it and his heart was agitated. He turned his eyes to the cracked egg lying quietly in a corner of the pavilion. At this time, several low-grade spirit stones surrounded it in a circle, barely emitting spiritual energy to keep the egg alive.

"Back then, I didn't have any extra resources, so I had no choice but to give up on nurturing the egg of this Frost Crystal Snow Sun Toad. I only used a few spirit stones to keep it alive. But now, I have a hundred mid-grade spirit stones in my hands. It's time to bring it into the world..."

Chen Mu did not plan to save this batch of spirit stones. After all, no matter how much he saved, they would be used up one day. It would be better for him to do his best to improve his own combat power. Once his realm was raised, would he still be afraid of not being able to earn spirit stones?
After all, he hadn't forgotten that in the spirit beast bag on his waist was a perfectly intact egg of the Frost Crystal Snow Sun Toad, worth over a thousand mid-grade spirit stones. Only when his realm and combat power improved would he be able to sell such a precious item...
