Chapter 253: Rivalry, prestige, notoriety

PS: Routine chapter, don't read it, make it up tomorrow. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

It's been getting more and more wasteful lately, and there are too many things to be busy with in my senior year.

No matter how much I say, it's all my fault.

Come and scold me.

Above.

――

Night.

Li Mu stood on top of a giant tree, his eyes piercing through the night, looking at the surrounding forests.

The darkness was thick, and there was no other sound coming from the forest except for the sound of the wind hunting, which seemed a little strange.

Whether it is an ignorant beast or a demon beast with a fledgling mind, or those primordial demons who hide themselves, they are all very tacitly quiet at night, as if there is a special existence in this darkness, shocking them and making them dare not make any sound.

Darkness itself is not scary, but darkness brings fear. This fear stems from the unknown, from the elusive, and from the inability to control one's own loss and confusion.

But these situations obviously will not appear in Li Mu. Standing on the branches, there was a faint golden light flashing in his eyes, and he could see the situation clearly within more than ten zhang around him, the fierce tigers lying on the ground, the snakes and insects crawling slowly, and the chicks trembling in the nearby trees...... Among these quiet beings, it was clear that there was no target he was looking for.

After a long day of searching, he did not find a trace of the clouded leopard. This was also within his expectations, after all, the Spirit Beast Mountain within a radius of a hundred miles was not something he could search for in a day alone.

There is no doubt about the existence of the clouded leopard mentioned in this mission, but whether it has survived the catastrophe or not, whether it is dead, whether it is still near the Spirit Beast Mountain, Li Mu does not know the answers to these questions. The reason why he had to spend all day searching was just to try his luck.

All he could do now seemed to be to wait quietly.

At this time, the giant tree he was standing on was one of the many trees close to the edge of the stone forest circle, and the dense foliage covered his figure well.

Li Mu had already decided in his heart, the task issued by the Mission Pavilion did not have to be completed, if he encountered a task that one person could not complete, as long as he came up with a suitable reason, he could change the task or ask the sect for assistance. Now his situation is undoubtedly among them.

After searching for a whole day, his spirit was still very high, and he could not see a trace of fatigue. But at this time, the night was already dark, and there would be no results if he looked at it any longer, so Li Mu didn't think much about it, just closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on the trunk.

His perception did not relax in the slightest, and he still vigilantly monitored the situation around him.

The beasts are lurking, the monsters are hidden, and the Yuan Demon doesn't know where he is. In the moonless night, the forest seemed to be dangerous, but it was quiet, and nothing came near him.

Even in such an environment, Li Mu still did not stop practicing. The mantra of the first layer of the Nine Heavens Qi Cultivation Technique crossed his heart, and a trace of Yuan Power entered his body, slowly being familiar and controlled by him, and becoming a part of his Yuan Power.

Nine days of practicing the first layer of the Qi Technique, he can break through in a few days, and Li Mu can feel that breaking through the first layer does not seem to encounter any bottlenecks, it seems that as long as he has accumulated enough yuan power, he can break through directly.

This unknown cultivation method seemed to be very different from the major cultivation methods he knew. At the very least, Li Mu knew that in the cultivation process of the Xuanming Sect's Xuan-level lower-grade exercises, every small breakthrough would face a bottleneck.

In the past month or so, Li Mu was anxious to re-transform and stabilize his realm, plus he wanted to learn new techniques, but he ignored this for a while. He had a faint bad premonition in his heart, as if cultivating this technique would have some adverse effect on him.

Moreover, this is derived from the Nine Heavens Qi Cultivation Technique of Kuang Lao Dao, and there is only the cultivation method of the mortal period, and I don't know if the Xuanming Sect has collected the latter part of this exercise?

Generally speaking, the major exercises that each practitioner chooses when he or she transforms into an ordinary person accompanies him for the rest of his life, and it is very troublesome for every practitioner to want to specialize in other exercises. The price to be paid is not small, Li Mu was in a hurry to turn into a mortal, and he didn't know this taboo, so he directly regarded the Nine Heavens Qi Cultivation Technique as his main practice. Now that I think about it, it's a bit presumptuous.

Li Mu was running the exercises of the first layer of the Nine Heavens Qi Technique, familiarizing himself with and refining his Yuan Power over and over again, and at the same time thinking about the major exercises in his heart. Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it is sunrise. The red morning sun poked its head out of the distant mountains, slowly dispelling the darkness and illuminating all things in the world.

Li Mu didn't open his eyes, and in the next few days, if the clouded leopard still didn't move, he wouldn't search for it. After ten days, he will leave this place and return to the sect.

As for whether the task is completed or not, it doesn't matter much to him. What he really cared about was hiding behind this strange mission...... Enemy.

Responding to change with the same is his choice.

A day passed, and no movement came.

Two days, three days, four days...... Seven days have passed.

On the eighth day, the Yuan Force in Li Mu's body was boiling, and a light sound came, and the first layer of the Nine Heavens Qi Cultivation Technique directly broke through, and it was like a matter of course, and in his two dantians, the Yuan Force increased by as much as three percent at the same time.

Li Mu's eyelids moved, and he slowly opened his eyes.

A leaf was blown off by the wind, Li Mu's body moved slightly, and dozens of leaves fell to the ground. The power of his divine consciousness was released without reservation, one, two, and three...... Ten zhang, eleven zhang, twelve zhang!

His divine consciousness was more than before, and the limit distance was extended to twelve zhang. Within the twelve zhang area around him was the range of his divine sense, as well as the range of attack.

It's a pity that I don't know any divine sense. Li Mu shook his head, he knew that his divine sense was extremely powerful, but he didn't know how to control it.

The situation around is still the same as a few days ago, big insects eat small insects, demon beasts eat wild beasts, the wind rustles the leaves, and a snake crawls in the grass.

The crimson-colored, neatly arranged stone forest still stands, and the heat emitted by the wind is blown away by the wind, and it is nowhere to be seen.

Li Mu had already begun to wonder in his heart, had the clouded leopard already survived the Thunder Tribulation, had already died at this time, or had left the Spirit Beast Mountain?

There were still two days to go, and he still couldn't act rashly.

Li Mu has patience, both left and right are cultivation, if the enemy in the shadows can't help but make a move first, it will be his own opportunity.

But where the sect's commandment is, they are both disciples of the Xuanming Sect, and they can't kill each other at all. If that person dared to make a move on him, he wouldn't even want to return to the sect. The key to everything is still on the clouded leopard, only through it, the cannibalism of the two Xuanming sect disciples will be covered up and will not be recorded by the sect token.

On the ninth day, late at night.

The moonlight is clear, the breeze is gentle, and the clouds in the night sky are blurred.

Li Mu, who was meditating on the branches, suddenly opened his eyes.

A strange aura came from not far away, and Li Mu suddenly had a faint sense of fear in his heart, and his blood was pulled by this breath, and slowly boiled.

Li Mu gasped for breath in his mouth, suddenly stood up, and looked at the night sky in front of him. Under the bright moonlight, a black and thick thundercloud quickly gathered, from which the cyan electric light flashed from time to time, which looked very bright, dangerous and beautiful in the dark night.

The silence of the night was broken, and countless beasts, feeling the breath of destruction in the thunderclouds, rushed to the distance, followed by some weak and ignorant demon beasts. But more monsters were staring somewhere under the thunderclouds with red eyes.

But none of the primordial demons appeared.

Any primordial demon who has experienced the thunder tribulation will subconsciously leave the scope of the thunder tribulation. Because it represents destruction and fear, the shadow left in the heart of the Yuan Demon will accompany the cultivation of the demon clan for a long time.

Li Mu calmed his mind, and the demon yuan in his body flowed and injected into his eyes. There was a faint golden light in his eyes, and his pupils were golden, looking majestic and indifferent.

Hundreds of zhang away, in the yellow stone forest, on the highest stone tree, a well-built demon beast was lying on the ground on all fours, with white hair standing up all over its body, and was roaring in the sky.

It is similar in size to a normal cheetah, but its fur is white and does not have the slightest variegation. In the darkness, its eyes flashed with a faint blue light, and in the face of the imminent thunderstorm, it opened its mouth wide and roared continuously.

The roar was not small, but it was weak and powerless in the rumbling thunder.

It's in fear. Li Mu knew that it was fearing the thunderclouds in the sky, the demon beast was not an ignorant beast, it also had wisdom. Roaring with all its might at this time was just a way to alleviate its fears.

Clouded leopard, like to live alone, whereabouts are erratic, tyrannical temperament, extremely fast, sharp claws, can ride the wind, practice to a certain realm, after awakening the talent of the skill, can even rise against the wind, gallop between the white clouds, hence the name.

The ordinary clouded leopard is a seventh-rank upper-level demon clan, and the mutated blood clouded leopard is a fifth-rank upper-level demon clan, good at fighting and pursuit, and extremely talented.

The clouded leopard not far away was snow-white, and it was obviously just an ordinary clouded leopard.

But tonight, it is destined to be the most dazzling existence.

Under the Qingyang Thunder Tribulation, he turned into a Yuan Demon or turned into ashes. And after surviving the thunder tribulation, what awaits it will not end well. At this time, Li Mu is definitely not the only one who is paying attention to it.

In the night sky, a thick thundercloud condensed at an extremely fast speed. Under the thunderclouds, the place where the clouded leopard was located was enveloped in heavy darkness, and only one of its eyes remained, faintly shining with blue light.

Almost a moment later, a blue light shot out from the thundercloud and struck the clouded leopard directly, imprisoning it in it.

A loud "boom" sounded, and a cyan thunderball containing huge energy was born from the thundercloud, and in an instant, it crossed a distance of dozens of zhang and fell straight on the clouded leopard.

The clouded leopard's white fur exploded at the roots, and a strong red glow glowed around its body. The red light overshadowed the blue light that had imprisoned it, wrapping its body tightly in it.

The cyan thunderball didn't stop at all, smashing the clouded leopard's body!

Chapter 127 Cultivation on the Tree, Clouded Leopard Tribulation
