Chapter 657: Mu Yun

Li Muran continued to fly forward, and several insect clouds encountered along the way were all wiped out or subdued by him one by one.

Suddenly, he saw a few figures flickering in front of him in a cloud of insects, as if they were fighting fiercely with the cloud of insects.

"Finally met an immortal cultivator!" Li Muran's heart moved, and he immediately raised his escape light, turned into an aurora, and broke through the air.

This is a swarm of giant beetles, these giant beetles, each one is the size of a fist, and there are seven or eight golden points of light on the hard shell of the giant beetle, which is a sign of the extremely high grade of the giant beetle.

In the swarm of insects, there are two men and one woman, a total of three people, who are fighting fiercely against the giant beetle, and all three of them are in the early stage of the law phase or the middle stage of the law phase. One of the middle-aged men, half covered in blood and pale, was obviously injured, he leaned on the cover of his two companions, stretched out his fingers and continuously injected mana into a white jade shield in front of him, trying his best to resist the impact of the giant beetle.

Another young man held a double sword magic weapon, skillfully slashed out a series of sword lights, hitting the surrounding giant beetles, although the sword light he cut out was also sharp, but these giant beetle carapace shells were extremely hard, his sword light could only repel the giant beetle, but could not kill it. After being knocked away, the giant beetles often only flipped a few times before pounced again.

The female cultivator seemed to be the strongest of the three at the moment, she held a cyan jade Ruyi in one hand, and swept away the giant beetles around her with a ray of light, and in the other hand, she could also sacrifice a few talismans from time to time, skillfully stimulating them one by one, turning into a fire dragon and rushing into the swarm.

It's a pity that the giant beetle has a tough body, not only is it invulnerable, but it can also be invulnerable, and its resistance to all kinds of spells is also extremely strong.

Thousands of giant beetles followed one after another, constantly attacking the three of them. The three of them struggled to support themselves, and they knew very well that as long as they were careless, they were likely to die in the belly of the worm.

At this moment, an aurora suddenly flashed in the sky at an incredible speed, and the figure of a young monk was immediately revealed, which was Li Muran.

Li Muran didn't say a word, and immediately shot out a series of finger-thick white spiritual light with ten fingers, striking at the giant beetle besieging the three Dharma Phase Stage monks. Strange to say, these giant beetles, who were not afraid of swords and spells, after being hit by the seemingly ordinary white aura, although their bodies were still intact, they all immediately lost their breath and fell from the sky.

In a matter of moments, more than a hundred giant beetles were killed, and the remaining giant beetles instinctively became afraid and scattered one after another.

The three Dharma Phase Stage monks immediately broke the siege, and each was overjoyed.

Seeing that those giant beetles were about to disperse around, Li Muran frowned, and said softly: "These beetles are difficult to deal with even the Fa Phase Stage cultivators, if they are not eliminated, they will become a disaster!"

He immediately waved his robe, and more than a hundred natal Gu worm phantom Gu flew out of his sleeve and turned into Li Muran's appearance one by one.

These "Li Muran" also shot out white spiritual light with ten fingers in succession, hitting those giant beetles.

This white spiritual light is the light of divine extinguishment, which can directly kill the primordial god of the giant beetle, although the giant beetle is strong, but the primordial god is weak, under the attack of the light of divine annihilation, it is vulnerable, and the primordial god is immediately destroyed. The original god was destroyed, and the giant beetle was left with only a shell, and it fell into the sea one after another, which was not a problem.

More than 100 "Li Muran" shot at the same time, and almost all of these thousands of giant beetles were killed in an instant, and only a handful of insects were caught in the net.

The young male cultivator in the middle stage of the law phase looked at this scene with a shocked expression, not to mention that Li Muran's aura was unfathomable, just with this clean and neat method of killing the giant beetle swarm, it was enough to show that he was a senior master with extremely high cultivation.

After killing the giant beetle, Li Muran's sleeve robe waved, and those "Li Muran" turned into tiny Gu worms one after another and flew into his sleeve.

"Thank you seniors for coming to the rescue!" the young male cultivator hurriedly bowed down and bowed, and another injured middle-aged man also struggled to salute respectfully.

The female cultivator stared at Li Muran blankly for a while, and exclaimed, "Master, is it really your old man!"

"Master?" Li Muran was stunned, he glanced at this woman, and only felt that this woman was slightly familiar between her eyebrows, but he couldn't guess her identity.

The female cultivator seemed to be even more affirmative, and she bowed to Li Muran respectfully, saying: "Junior Mu Yun, meet Master Shizu! ”

"It turns out that you are Wu Gong's disciple!" Li Muran suddenly realized, "Well, when the real person was guarding Ningfeng Island, he used to take Wu Gong with him, and later he also accepted three disciples on Ningfeng Island, you are the female baby among them!"

"It's the junior!" Mu Yun said: "The heroic posture of Master Shi Zu guarding Ningfeng Island back then made the juniors have the idea of entering the immortal cultivation realm. Later, I got the guidance of my teacher, and finally stepped into the cultivation, I didn't expect to meet Master Lu today, and Master Shizu's cultivation has improved a lot compared to back then!"

Li Muran smiled slightly and said, "Wu Gong, is he okay?"

Mu Yun sighed lightly and said, "The master has tried to impact the Fa Phase Stage three times, but he has never been able to advance, and he has fallen many years ago. The other two senior brothers, one had already fallen when he was in the Qi Pulse Stage, and the other had cultivated to the middle stage of the fugue, but his longevity was shorter and he had already sat down. ”

Li Muran nodded and sighed lightly.

Speaking of which, when Li Muran accepted Wu Gong as an apprentice, he didn't plan to pass on his mantle at all, and he didn't spend too much effort to guide Wu Gong's practice, but after all, Wu Gong was the first disciple he officially accepted, and Li Muran was still a little sad to learn that he failed to advance to the Fa Phase Period.

Li Muran said: "Although your master has not obtained the true inheritance of the true person, he is indeed an official disciple of the true person. It's also appropriate for you to call the real person a master. In the future, if you have any confusion in your practice, the real person will also give you advice. ”

"Thank you, Master!" Mu Yun thanked with great joy.

When the two male cultivators on the side saw this scene, they both showed envy. If a monk like them in the early and middle stages of the Dharma Phase, if he can get the guidance of a master in the True Body Stage, he will have to take many detours in his cultivation, which is undoubtedly a great opportunity.

Moreover, with such a big backer, monks of the same rank generally do not dare to be enemies with him, and most of them have to compete with each other to make friends.

Li Muran asked, "You are all the elders of the Gu God Palace, how can there be so many strange insects here, why are you and the other three surrounded by insect swarms?"

Mu Yun replied: "Qi Yu Master, we are indeed all elders of the Gu Divine Palace, the junior and this injured Senior Brother Xiao have been cultivating in the Gu Divine Palace since the Qi Vein Period, and this Senior Brother Xu joined the Gu Divine Palace after the Advanced Law Phase Period. I waited for the news that there were insect clouds in the depths of the demon sea in the near future, so I was ordered by the sect to come here to investigate, but I unexpectedly encountered a terrible insect swarm like a giant beetle, if it wasn't for the ancestor's action, I was afraid that it would be difficult for the three of us to get out!"

"It turns out that this is the depths of the Demon Sea!" Li Muran's heart moved, among the many sea areas in the Southern Heavenly Sea, there was a large area of sea where the sea monsters were frequently infested, and there were even high-level demon beasts, so this sea area was called the Demon Sea. Back then, Li Muran had also cultivated somewhere in the Demon Sea for a period of time, but the scope of the Demon Sea was not small, and he had not traveled all of them.

"So, the appearance of the insect cloud is a recent thing?" Li Muran asked, "Could it be that the insect plague is about to break out again?"

Mu Yun shook his head and replied, "That's not it! At this time, it has only been two hundred years since the last insect plague, and it should not be the time for another outbreak! In fact, in the past hundred years, some insect clouds have suddenly appeared from time to time in various seas in the Nantian Sea, and although we have sent people to suppress and kill them, decades later, insect clouds have appeared in other seas. This has happened no less than three times!"

"Strange!" Li Muran became more and more confused, "If such a large insect swarm is not an outbreak of insect plague, where did it come from?"

"We don't know anything, every time we kill the insect swarm, the sect will send a monk to investigate the origin of the insect swarm, but nothing is found. Mu Yun said.

"It's not that there are no clues!" The injured middle-aged monk suddenly interjected, "Junior, I heard that every time before the insect cloud appears, a huge black vortex will appear in the nearby sea, I don't know if there is some connection. ”

"Whirlpool?" Li Muran was stunned, the appearance of whirlpools in the sea water is a very common phenomenon, or there is kraken activity, or there are spatial fluctuations, or submarine volcanic eruptions, this kind of anomaly will appear, it is really difficult to determine whether there is some connection between it and the insect cloud.

"Since it is not an insect outbreak, as long as all the nearby insect swarms are eliminated, the crisis can be resolved. Li Muran's heart was relieved, and he said: "The real person is also going to return to the Gu God Palace, so I will escort you to wait for a while." ”

"Thank you seniors! Thank you ancestors!" Mu Yun and the others were overjoyed, with a master like Li Muran by their side, even if they encountered a powerful insect cloud, they would be safe and sound.

Li Muran took Mu Yun and the others to fly towards the Gu God Palace, and along the way, Li Muran also chatted with Mu Yun about some things in the Gu God Palace.

"By the way, have you ever heard that the Gu God Palace Master once issued a hunt and kill order two hundred years ago?" Li Muran suddenly changed the topic and asked sideways.

"Did the palace master issue a chase and kill order?" Mu Yun was stunned for a moment and shook his head: "How come the juniors have never heard of it!"

"It's nothing, the real person just asked casually. Li Muran's heart moved, it seemed that this matter was not widely publicized, and the Gu God Palace Palace Master had secretly ordered him to hunt and kill.

"By the way, do you know that there is a Supreme Elder in the Dao Gu Divine Palace?" Li Muran asked.

"Yu Zhenren, what the master said, isn't it the new palace master of this palace and the great monk Yu senior in the late stage of the real body?" Mu Yun was stunned again.
