Just then, Li Mu felt a strong aura arrive.
The whole of Muguang Mountain felt as if it had suffered a catastrophe.
All the warriors living in Muguang Mountain felt that they were about to die. Everyone was flustered, yet helpless. They just closed their eyes and waited for death.
The warriors of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground started cheering.
“Kill him! Kill everyone in Muguang Mountain! Occupy the South Continent!”
“Pretty ladies of the South Continent, I’m coming!”
“Revenge!”
…
The person who was coming was a half-step Virtual Realm master.
In the hearts of all the disciples of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground, this half-step Virtual Realm master represented the entire Qianyuan Sacred Ground.
Since he was here now, who could stop them?
“The South Continent’s bastards are going to beg for mercy!” Outside, the disciples of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground said excitedly.
In Muguang Mountain, some of the South Continent people who were trapped started to become desperate.
After years of fighting, they are no longer civilized.
Their inner ruthlessness was completely exposed during the battles.
All lives were worthless.
They only lived for the moment.
Several of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground disciples surged forward upon seeing the South Continent people stop resisting
The half-step Virtual Realm master finally appeared in Muguang Mountain.
When he saw Li Mu, he was stunned.
Without even glancing at him, Li Mu flicked his Phoenix Blood Sword.
The half-step Virtual Realm master paused for a moment.
“You are a Virtual…”
Before he finished his sentence, his body was cut in half by the sword.
Muguang Mountain was full of bloodshed.
When the group of disciples from the Qianyuan Sacred Ground saw that their elders were killed in an instant, their smiles disappeared.
“It’s a Virtual Realm monster! Run!”
“Can we even escape?”
The Phoenix Blood Sword turned in the air and killed all the disciples of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground who were in Muguang Mountain.
The situation had taken a turn for the worse.
Li Mu did not let any of the Zhongzhou bandits go.
After a while, Muguang Mountain was free of bandits.
Thousands of miles away, the grand elders of the Huanhai Sacred Ground stared at the sword light on Muguang Mountain with smiles on their faces.
“That person finally made a move!”
“But I don’t know if we can count on him to reduce the Qianyuan Sacred Ground’s numbers. After all, he is just one person,” one of the elders said sadly.
“If he can reduce the Qianyuan Sacred Ground’s numbers even slightly, we will have a higher chance of winning future wars.”
After receiving the Qianyuan Sacred Ground’s invitation to a truce, they were thinking about what would be best for their next generation.
There was no master in the Luojue Sacred Ground who was a match for them.
Most of the Zhongzhou’s masters had fallen.
The rest were just a bunch of bandits.
They had asked two Virtual Realm masters to help them, but this cost them all the treasure they had accumulated over the past few years.
Since the Qianyuan Sacred Ground has no intention to fight, why should they?
When Qiu Baihui came to persuade them to let go of their prejudices and jointly attack the South Continent, they started to reconsider.
Wasn’t this a good thing?
The people of the South Continent were the ones benefiting from their fights against the Qianyuan Sacred Ground.
They didn’t like the idea of this.
In addition, if the Qianyuan Sacred Ground joined them to fight against the South Continent people, their numbers would also be reduced.
During this time, they could recuperate.
This was good for both of them.
They should just accept this gift from the Qianyuan Sacred Ground.
“We used to guess that this person must be at least an intermediate Virtual Realm master, but now it seems that his cultivation level is even higher than that. It will be difficult for the Qianyuan Sacred Ground to destroy him!” One of the elders said.
“As far as I know, this Virtual Realm master has concealed himself very well. Only the master of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground who is at the peak of the Virtual Realm might be able to kill him.” Another elder added meaningfully.
This Virtual Realm master had been hidden for so many years without being discovered by anyone. That only showed how skilled he was.
As long as he remained in hiding, he could attack the Qianyuan Sacred Ground from time to time.
It was not easy to defeat the Qianyuan Sacred Ground.
“Haha! We’re about to watch a good show soon!”
“Let’s retreat first and give way to the masters of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground so that they can go to the South Continent more easily.”
Several elders of Huanhai Sacred Ground nodded their heads.
The people of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground were furious that their elders had been killed in Muguang Mountain.
Inside a cave in the Forbidden Ground, there were more than thirty Virtual Realm masters sitting cross-legged.
Anyone would be surprised to see so many masters in one place.
It was a frightening sight!
How many masters were there hidden in the Qianyuan Sacred Ground?
“It was the South Continent Virtual Realm master who attacked! What should we do?”
“What else should we do? Kill him!”
Several of the Virtual Realm masters were furious.
“Do you still remember Jin Zhe? He was a fifth level Virtual Realm master. But he was killed unexpectedly, and his corpse is still missing.”
One of the elders frowned. “Then the other party is at least a sixth level Virtual Realm master. They might even be at the peak of the Virtual Realm.”
“Then should we still go ahead with our plan?”
“Definitely! We need more powerful masters. Get several intermediate Virtual Realm masters who have good potential to follow me into the secret area.”
…
In the Forbidden Ground…
On the huge golden lotus, the old man with long eyebrows blasted a stream of golden qi into a half- step Virtual Realm master.
After a while, the half- step Virtual Realm master had an awakening.
At the same time, the old man with long eyebrows grew thinner yet again.
“It’s just a little bit of qi. Only with these many masters can I have the chance to channel more qi. Otherwise, if I just keep these qi for myself, I will just end up dying.” The long-brow old man whispered, comforting himself.
Channelling qi could increase a warrior’s lifespan and help them break through.
Although he was rather reluctant to do so, there was currently no other way.
He didn’t just want to wait for death.
Half a day later, the half-step Virtual Realm master broke through.
Three figures appeared outside the golden lotus.
The leader explained the current situation in detail.
“It’s that person from the South Continent again! After the two of you break through, take back the cultivation channels from the South Continent as soon as possible.”
He passed each of them a cultivation channel, signalling them to leave.
Then, the old man’s hair began to fall.
Seeing this, the remaining person cried out in distress. “Ancestor!”
“I’m alright. If we manage to keep the cultivation channel in the South Continent, this won’t matter. I’m just afraid we won’t be able to do it!”
“Ancestor, you think too highly of the South Continent people.”
“You haven’t experienced what happened in the past, so you don’t understand. The people of the South Continent cannot be underestimated. Ming Shan, make the preparations for this. A demon has also appeared in the East Continent. If we fail in the South Continent, then we can only channel qi from the East Continent. It will be more troublesome. If we are successful in the South Continent, the East Continent should be in chaos too.”
“Yes, ancestor! The East Continent bastards are taking advantage of the chaos in Zhongzhou to rob and steal. It’s time for them to get a taste of their own medicine.” Ming Shan said.
He took a jade plate from the ancestor and left.
Two months later, the eight Virtual Realm masters of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground led countless masters towards Muguang Mountain.
Zhongzhou was bubbling with news again.
Qianyuan and Huanhai were at a truce.
All the Zhongzhou warriors couldn’t fathom what kind of war was brewing if these two parties chose to truce temporarily.
Unexpectedly, the Huanhai Sacred Ground had retreated.
Then, the masters of the Qianyuan Sacred Ground started heading to the South Continent.
What was happening?
Had the Zhongzhou war finally stopped?
Were they going to attack the South Continent people?
Great!
Zhongzhou would finally be peaceful.
“I want to go fight the South Continent too! I don’t mind tagging behind the Qianyuan Sacred Ground!”
Countless masters from Zhongzhou followed behind the Qianyuan Sacred Ground.
In Muguang Mountain…
In front of the vitality pit, Li Mu was teaching Gongsun Yang swordsmanship.
Suddenly, his heart sank.
He flew out of the vitality pit and stood on top of Muguang Mountain.
There was a sea of clouds billowing in the distance.
Upon closer inspection, he saw a group of masters in the air.
“Sure enough, it’s the same as in the books. The older generation have come to avenge the younger generation. But why are there so many of them?”
