Emperor of the North Chapter 107

Chapter 107 - Red Spirit Holy Water

"It seems that I have underestimated you. I never thought that after a few years of closed door cultivation, a person like you would appear within the inner disciples of my Gold Jade Sect!"

Tuoba Han didn't have any intention to attack Li Mu. With a solemn face, he sized up Li Mu and was quite interested in this junior brother from Early Xiantian in front of him.

"You can't say, it's just that you have a bit of strength, it's not like senior brother, body-tempering method, has already entered the transformation realm and is only half a step away from the sacred art realm. It shouldn't be a problem for junior brother here now right?" Li Mu said coldly.

If it's during normal times, I would really want to compete with you, but with the big sect compet.i.tion at hand, and me rus.h.i.+ng for time, I will not argue with you, I hope that we can meet you in the big sect, your body's refinement ability is not bad, and amongst the inner sect disciples of Gold Jade Sect, your strength can be ranked in the top ten, I am looking forward to fighting with you!

Tuoba Han's eyes were filled with fighting spirit, and his words caused quite a stir in the other people's ears, his Early Xiantian already ranked within the top ten of the inner sect gate, how could they not be shocked, some of them even recognized Li Mu and began to whisper.

Li Mu did not bother with the others. Since the Hall of Venus had summoned him, he walked straight in.

Walking into Hall of Venus, Li Mu saw an elder of the Divine Arts realm sitting in front of a counter, holding a jade talisman to his forehead, as though he was inscribing something with a spirit imprint.

"Name!"

"Li Mu."

"Cultivation base!"

"Early Xiantian."

"This is your number plate number one thousand three hundred and fourteen. The specific ranking and opponent information will be announced three days before the compet.i.tion. It can be seen on the bulletin board at the main hall's entrance."

"There are three prohibitions in the Large Compet.i.tion. Firstly, it is strictly forbidden to take lives. Secondly, it is forbidden to use anything that exceeds the strength of the same realm, such as Dao talismans or Soul Treasures. Thirdly, in order to ensure fairness of the compet.i.tion, it is forbidden to consume any medicinal pills or other items that replenish true energy during the compet.i.tion."

In addition, you can admit defeat during the compet.i.tion and knock your opponent out of the stage as the winner. You must remember this, if there is anything you are unsure about, you can ask the disciples of the sect, White Jade Square whose battle arena is halfway up the mountain.

The elder in charge of registration gave Li Mu a jade token, which had the number 1314 engraved on it. He then told Li Mu a few sentences and no longer said anything.

After receiving the order badge, Li Mu tactfully left the Hall of Venus, and then left with Zhou Xianguan. Before he left, he did not forget to give Tuoba Han a provocative look, which made Tuoba Han so angry that his teeth itched.

"Senior Brother Li, you're so awesome, to actually get such a high evaluation from Senior Brother Tuoba Han. You must know that Senior Brother Tuoba Han is famous for being arrogant and despotic, fighting against others the moment he disagrees with someone, and today, he actually submitted to you. This is truly admirable."

On the way back, Zhou Xianguan praised Li Mu's performance in front of the Hall of Venus greatly.

"The opponent's strength isn't weak. Actually, I just want to exchange blows with him and see what the so-called top ten in strength are like, but I never would have thought that the opponent didn't even have any fighting spirit. I can't say that he gave in, I can only say that he didn't want to fight."

Li Mu laughed bitterly. Actually, other than the fact that he wanted to test the other party's strength, he also had another reason;

He had already encountered a bottleneck half a year ago. He wanted to seek a breakthrough in his battle, and because he had seen Tuoba Han's terrifying strength, he wanted to take him as his opponent. However, he did not know that the other party did not have the heart to fight.

"That's because Senior Brother Li possesses the strength to give it a try. If it was an ordinary person, who would dare to challenge Senior Brother Tuoba Han? They simply don't know the meaning of this."

Zhou Xianguan's wors.h.i.+p of Li Mu had already reached the blind stage, in his mouth, Li Mu was the best, this made Li Mu helpless.

Just as he returned to pavilion 250, Li Mu found out that a few frequent guests had arrived at his gate. Shen Cai Qing, Xiao Kuan, Liu Canghai and Xiao Yi were shockingly inside, and other than them, there were a few other guests that Li Mu did not recognize, all waiting for his return.

"Senior brothers and sisters, how come you have the time to come visit me today? It's been three years since we last met, and yet everyone still has the same demeanor."

Seeing that his mood was not too bad, Li Mu hurriedly walked over and smiled as he greeted him.

"You brat, you are truly impressive, to actually make so many of us wait here for so long. In the entire Gold Jade Sect, only you have that much face!"

The one who spoke was Xiao Kuan, he still had a cold and indifferent look, not giving Li Mu any face at all. As for Shen Cai Qing and the rest, they could only smile bitterly, as though they had other important matters to attend to.

Li Mu laughed, and immediately opened the door, bringing everyone into the pavilion, and then sitting down as the host. As for Zhou Xianguan, he tactfully went to work as an attendant, pouring everyone a cup of fragrant tea, and guarding the entrance.

"I heard that the Junior Brother Li had an unparalleled scenery today. One man against seven people of the same cultivation level. In less than half a cup of tea's time, they were all beaten to the ground."

After sitting down, Shen Cai Qing said with a smile that was not a smile. She was still as beautiful as ever, and the three years of time did not leave much on her body.

"How could that be? I was just lucky. I wonder what business do you have with me? I just came out of seclusion and you all hurried over."

Li Mu naturally did not think that Shen Cai Qing and the others were looking for him to reminisce about the old days, and directly asked him about his purpose.

The Junior Brother Li is wrong, we did not come together, it is just that we coincidentally happened to meet in front of your door, I came here to get Junior Brother to help me forge a powerful weapon, previously I did not manage to gather the required materials, so I went out three years ago to gather them with great difficulty, coincidentally Junior Brother was in closed door cultivation, thus I did not come here until now.

"These are my close friends, and they came for the same reason that I did. I came to find you guys to forge weapons, and I hope that you will give me some face for my sake. Don't worry, I will accept whatever crystal you need."

Liu Canghai revealed his purpose for coming, and also explained the reason why Xiao Yi and a few other inner disciples that he did not know came. The cultivation levels of these people varied, some had late Xiantian, and some were even in the middle stages of Early Xiantian.

"Senior Brother Liu thinks too highly of me, Li Mu. In fact, I had already planned to no longer open the casting weapons, but since Senior Brother Liu, Senior Brother Xiao, has personally come, I can only make an exception once, because the Great Clan Compet.i.tion is around the corner, so you guys should prepare the materials. Tomorrow, I will help you guys create your weapon."

Li Mu had a pretty good impression of Liu Canghai, after knowing the reason he came, he immediately agreed. This caused Liu Canghai and the others to be wild with joy, and they kept thanking Li Mu.

"Senior Sister Shen, are you here for the matter of forging weapons as well? If I remember correctly, the grade of your two swords should be enough for you to handle this time's Large Compet.i.tion. Also, Senior Brother Xiao Kuan, I do not have the ability to raise the grade of your Great Ravager anymore. "

After asking Liu Canghai the reason for their arrival, Li Mu turned his gaze to Shen Cai Qing and Xiao Kuan.

"Of course not, because I already owed Junior a huge favor regarding the forging of weapons, how could I forge weapons again? Actually, I came here with Senior Brother Xiao Kuan, and the main reason is because there is an extremely secretive matter that I want to discuss with Junior Brother."

Shen Cai Qing said as he subconsciously looked at Liu Canghai and the rest, as if it was hard to say.

Liu Canghai and the rest were not stupid, they knew that the other party had something to discuss, so after greeting Li Mu, they all left the hall. After a while, only Li Mu, Xiao Kuan and Shen Cai Qing were left.

"What is it? Why is it so mysterious?"

Li Mu knew that Shen Cai Qing must have something important to say, so he asked impatiently.

Shen Cai Qing smiled and said to Xiao Kuan: "This matter should be decided by Senior Brother Xiao Kuan. Speaking of which, the reason why I came to find Junior Brother is because Senior Brother Xiao Kuan recommended me."

Xiao Kuan nodded his head, then asked with a serious face: "Has Junior Brother Li ever heard of the Red Armored Turtle?"

"Red Armored Turtle? Senior Xiao is talking about the strange beast with the astonis.h.i.+ng defensive power that is rumored to contain the bloodline of the Divine Spirit Wu. "

Li Mu's expression slightly changed. He had heard of Red Armored Turtle s from Huntian before, this was an extremely difficult demon beast to deal with and kill. It rarely appeared in the cultivation world, because the number of them was simply too few.

Xiao Kuan laughed blandly: That's right, it is said to be the Red Armored Turtle that possesses the Black Tortoise bloodline, we have come this time for the sake of the Red Armored Turtle, I have a close friend in the clan, a few months ago he found a level four Red Armored Turtle in a hidden place in the Heavenly Demon Valley, level four Red Armored Turtle's beast core, I believe junior knows what that means for us Innate realm cultivators, right?

"It is said in the world of cultivation that if the Red Armored Turtle's beast core is combined with a few extremely precious materials, it could be used to concoct the legendary Scarlet Spirit Holy Water, which would be extremely beneficial to a Xiantian realm warrior in breaking through to the supernatural realm, and could increase the probability of a breakthrough by almost half, how could I not know about this, I just do not know the meaning behind this."

The degree of value of the Red Armored Turtle and the Scarlet Spirit Holy Water were enough to make most warriors go crazy. It had to be known that breaking through to the Innate Realm from the Innate Realm was different from going from the Innate Realm to the Innate Realm. If one failed to break through to the Innate Realm from the Innate Realm from the Innate Realm, they would at most lose a portion of their cultivation, but the [Innate] Innate realm was completely different.

A breakthrough in the sacred art realm would result in death once one fails and there was no way to resolve it. This was also the reason why there were so few cultivators in the cultivation world. The sacred art realm was extremely difficult to break through to, and there was only one chance to do so.

"It's like this, although my good friend knows where the Red Armored Turtle is hiding, his cultivation is only at late Xiantian, so it's impossible for him to kill Rank 4 beasts by himself. So he found me and Junior Sister Shen Cai Qing, and upon my recommendation, he also wants to recruit Junior Brother, I wonder what Junior Brother Li thinks?"
