In the early morning of the next day, Li Mu took all the necessary items to go out, and went to the place where the disciples were managed in the sect to report to the sect as usual, and then went down the mountain alone.

His steps were fast, running on the steps of the mountain path, and it only took more than half an hour to come to the foot of Xuanxiao Peak.

Looking up, the strange mountain situation and colorful scenery of Xuanxiao Peak, although it was the second time he saw it, still gave him a great sense of shock in his heart.

This mountain is located in a huge basin, surrounded by cliffs as high as thousands of feet, and it seems that there is nowhere to enter and nowhere to go out.

As soon as Li Mu turned his head, he saw the stone staircase where he climbed the mountain last time and the porch engraved with the three big characters "Xuanming School", and remembered the scene of that day, and his heart couldn't help but feel a little trance.

After a little emotion, he casually walked to a mountain wall, took out his identity token, and pasted it up. I saw that the brown mountain wall rippled slightly like water waves, and slowly opened a door of light more than one person high.

Li Mu put away the token and walked in. Then the ripples flickered, and the entrance disappeared again.

The brilliance of the night pearl in the tunnel was faint, and Li Mu walked for about half an hour before reaching the end of the trip. He took out the sect token again, pasted it on the stone wall as concocted, and walked out slowly after the light gate appeared.

The place where he stood at his feet was still on the mountainside of a small mountain, but it was not the position where Lingmu brought him last time. After making a slight concealed mark at the exit, he walked briskly towards the top of the hill.

Climbing to the top of the mountain, Li Mu looked behind this mountain at first glance, only to see that between heaven and earth, the mountains are vast, but where is there any Xuanxiao Peak?

Li Mu put away the admiration in his heart and carefully searched for the existence of the rivers among the mountains. After a few moments, he was in a direction and ran down the hill as fast as he could.

In some of the classics that Li Mu had read during the year, the position of the Xuanming faction was roughly recorded.

Among the five major immortal cultivation sects of the human race in the Xuanying Realm, the Xuanming Sect is located in the 100,000 mountains in the south, within a radius of 10,000 miles, all of which are under the control of the Xuanming Sect, including three mortal realms and several Xiuzhen families.

The 100,000 Great Mountains where the Xuanming Sect is located is the largest alpine forest area in the Xuanying Realm, where there are many fierce beasts and poisonous insects. A few years ago, it was a thriving place for the demon clan.

But just three thousand years ago, Xuan Mingzi, the patriarch of the Xuanming faction, was born out of thin air, and with his peerless might, he swept away the five demon kings of 100,000 mountains. After forcing the Five Demon Kings to move away the demons of the Ju clan, this place was made the place where the Xuanming faction opened and flourished.

The area of 100,000 mountains is vast, the mountains are high and the forests are deep, and I don't know how many rare elixirs grow in them. Over the years, under the control of the Xuanming Sect, the 100,000 Great Mountains have also become a place of trial for the low-level disciples of the Xuanming Sect. And once there is a demon cultivator who has achieved cultivation and reached the point of giving birth to Neidan, attracting thunder tribulation, there will be Xuanming sending masters to kill it. Therefore, with the width of 100,000 mountains, there are so many monsters that have been born for thousands of years, but none of them have made the climate. There are a very few lucky people who also escaped before the thunderstorm was induced, when their wisdom was first opened.

Before Li Mu came out, he spent a spirit stone and bought a map of 100,000 mountains in the Menzhong Library. At this time, his purpose was a big river called "Canglan River".

The Canglan River originates from the most steep and majestic of the 100,000 mountains, up to 10,000 zhang on the "Canglan Mountain", the river surface is tens of miles wide, several zhang deep, flows into the Tuluo Sea to the south, and the whole length is thousands of miles away.

The first half of the Canglan River is fierce and passes through deep mountains and cliffs, the middle section is relatively gentle, with wide river valley plains along the coast, and the second half has many divergences, forming a huge swampy area. The destination of Li Mu's trip is the largest river valley plain in the middle reaches of the Canglan River, "Chishayuan".

The red sand plain goes down the river, hundreds of miles long and dozens of miles wide. Because it is full of red sand, hence the name.

Li Mu's hometown, Gui'an County, is located in the vast Jiangnan Plain of the Great Qi Kingdom, where he grew up since he was a child, how could he have seen so many strange mountains and mountains in the 100,000 mountains?

As he walked, he frequently looked left and right, wishing to take in the scenery around him. The long-suppressed mood and nature have been greatly released between the green mountains and green waters.

The Red Sand Plains were hundreds of miles away from where he was, so he was not in a hurry, just running slowly and enjoying the scenery along the way.

In a short time, he came to the side of the Canglan River, which was the peak of summer water, and the water of a river was like angry waves and rolling forward, and the wonders of natural creations were revealed here.

Li Mu has been in the arms of nature for more than 20 years in his life, and for the first time, he is so comfortable in the embrace of nature. There is the sound of the river, the birds, and the wind in my ears, and the rivers, mountains, and green trees in my eyes...... He only felt that nothing was not fresh, nothing was not lovely.

He was deeply immersed in this wild nature, his mind was empty, and he forgot about things.

Since joining the sect for a year, he has practiced day and night. The loneliness of being alone, the hardships of cultivation, the anxiety of being in a strange place, the longing for my deceased parents, and all kinds of demonic karma slowly dissipated under this breeze.

Li Mu walked and lived, did what he wanted, and threw away all shackles. At the end of the day, it took a hundred miles.

At dusk, he found a large rock, lit a fire, and prepared to go down to the river to catch fish.

It turned out that because he lived on the second layer of Xuanxiao Peak, as a formal disciple of Huafan, he was not like an ordinary innate generation, and he still had mortal food to eat. In the past year, he has long been extremely disgusted with Bigu Dan, who has only relied on Bigu Dan to satisfy his hunger, but it is not good to go down to the first layer to compete with a group of innate disciples for food, which makes people laugh and laugh, and he is afraid that something will happen. This time out of the sect, there is such a great opportunity, who wants to eat the bland and tasteless Bigu Dan?

Li Mu has been practicing for a long time, and he has experienced the essence of washing and cutting the essence, his eyesight is several times better than before, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "discerning". Therefore, he stood on this boulder several feet above the water surface and looked down, the fish and shrimp in the river were swimming, and the aquatic plants were shaking, all of which were extremely clear.

When he spotted a large fish in the water below, he did not take off his clothes, but plunged into the water with a fierce head, and caught the big fish with great swiftness.

When he came ashore, his soaked clothes were as dry as ever.

For Confucian scholars, "a gentleman is far away from cooking" is an important precept, but Li Mu is an exception. He has had an incomprehensible love for cooking since he was a child, even to the point of obsession, so he often went to the major restaurants in Gui'an to observe and learn, which made his parents very angry, but there was nothing he could do. Coupled with his outstanding talent since he was a child, he excelled in his studies, and his obsession with cooking gradually became a matter of resignation.

Before entering Beijing to catch the exam, he studied hard at home and practiced a good cooking skill. It is also handy to make fish. In his hands, a large fish of a foot long was scaled, offended, beheaded, and tailed, and put on the fire to roast. After a while, there was a burst of fragrance.

After the fish is grilled until it is browned, he takes it off and takes a bite, and the flavor of the fish fills his mouth, making people completely forget the lack of seasoning.

Li Mu feasted on it, and after eating all the fish in his stomach, he sighed contentedly.

He lay flat on the big stone by the river, looking up at a bright moon in the sky bent like a hook, there was a breeze coming, the river was leisurely, and he only felt that the beauty of life was full, but it was nothing more.

It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, a thunder broke out, and the heavy rain came, drenching him into a soup chicken with no cover at all.

The fire was quickly extinguished by the rain, and Li Mu sat up, drenched by the rain, and he didn't feel uncomfortable. After he took out a fire attribute spirit stone from his arms, he actually sat in the rain and absorbed the spiritual energy.

There was darkness between the heavens and the earth, and the occasional terrible howl of wild beasts came out from the deep mountains, echoing among the mountains for a long time.

From a distance, a faint red light emanated from the place where Li Mu was sitting, and the falling rain evaporated a hazy mist on his face and head. His face was blurred, and he exuded an air of superiority.

Under the action of the Yuan Spirit Bead, the spiritual energy of a spirit stone was quickly absorbed and turned into powder. Li Mu didn't care about the intensity of the heavy rain and the surging river, meditated on the spot, and slowly converted the spiritual energy inhaled into his body into true qi and stored it in the meridians.

Li Mu found that compared to the initial absorption of the spiritual energy in the spirit stone, the total amount of spiritual energy obtained from a spirit stone has become less and less recently.

The decrease in this amount was gradually increasing, from one percent at the beginning, to three percent a month ago, until now, for every spirit stone consumed, he could only absorb about fifty percent of the total amount of spiritual energy that he could obtain before. This made him very puzzled, but helpless. After all, his understanding of this mysterious Yuan Lingzhu was too little.

And he was also able to accept this matter, after all, even so, the speed at which he absorbed the aura was much faster than that of ordinary innate disciples. Moreover, in the past year, the total amount of true qi stored in his body has probably surpassed that of any innate disciple in the sect.

During Li Mu's meditation, the aura he had previously absorbed was gradually converted into true qi by him, and it was integrated into his limbs and countless meridians.

The rain stopped at some point, and the howls of wild beasts in the distance disappeared, and the sound of the mighty river suddenly rose up.

Li Mu opened his eyes, stood up, and suddenly had the idea of using the river to cultivate the "Water Stacking Wave Fist" in his heart.

After a heavy rain, the water of the Canglan River was much more fierce, and even Li Mu did not dare to rush into the water because he was full of strength and physical strength. After all, with the water potential at this time, let alone any cultivation techniques, it would be good not to be washed away by the water.

But since he had such a thought, he would not give up until he achieved his goal. However, at this time, the sky was dark, and everything was not very convenient, and if he wanted to practice boxing, he could only wait for the dawn.
