Emperor of the North Chapter 108

Chapter 108 - Ancient ruins

"Mu Xiaozi! Do you still remember that I told you about the Spirit Channeling grade pill? A Spirit Channeling grade pill can increase your chances of breaking through by thirty percent, and if you add this Scarlet Divine Water, as long as you aren't too unlucky, the bottleneck of the divine ability realm will basically not be too much of a burden to you! "

An excited voice sounded in Li Mu's mind, as he was extremely interested in this Scarlet Spirit Holy Water.

"If it's as Senior Xiao had said, I, Li Mu, am naturally not willing to let go of such a good opportunity. But, little brother has a few doubts, I hope senior brother can answer them truthfully."

Li Mu suppressed the excitement in his heart and said with a serious face.

"If you have any questions, just ask. It's not the first time we've met, so there's no need to be such a b.i.t.c.h." Xiao Kuan was expressionless, and indicated for Li Mu to be straightforward.

Li Mu laughed: "Firstly, just what level of strength does this Red Armored Turtle possess? Why are there so many senior brothers and sisters in the second sect looking for me? Thirdly, this Red Armored Turtle's beast core can be used to concoct a few portions of Scarlet Spirit Holy Water.

"The Red Armored Turtle is a mid rank 4 beast. If it was a high rank 4 beast, we wouldn't be so stupid as to take the risk. The difference in strength is too great, so it's not worth the risk."

"As for why I'm looking for you, it's naturally because of your luck and strength. Don't use your cultivation as an excuse to deal with this matter, other people might not know about your true strength, but I do have no choice but to retreat."

Regarding the concoction of Crimson Spirit Holy Water, if there are no accidents, we should be able to arrange eight of them, and we can naturally split one for each of you. As for the concoction of Crimson Spirit Holy Water, if there are no accidents, we should be able to arrange eight of them, and we can naturally divide one of them among each of us.

Xiao Kuan explained to Li Mu bit by bit.

"That's fair. I don't know if the others have found him yet, but when will we set out again? The Faction Compet.i.tion is coming, and I don't want to miss this one sixty-year cycle of prosperity."

Li Mu was not against the idea of killing Red Armored Turtle, so he asked for the details again out of caution.

"Only five people have been selected for the entry, the other three will make their decisions after the sect compet.i.tion. You can be at ease with Junior Brother Li, we will naturally choose people with good character and reputation; since Junior Brother Li has agreed, then this matter will be decided, and I hope that Junior does not reveal this matter."

Li Mu solemnly nodded: "Of course, I know the seriousness of such matters."

"Oh right, Senior Xiao, do you have any news about the compet.i.tion this time? I heard from someone that the Great Sect Compet.i.tion is different from the past. It is said that they invited the other nine of the ten great sects of northern Yuheng Continent, and they even said that there will be an exchange of pointers between the disciples of the ten great sects.

Li Mu changed the topic and asked about the matters concerning the Large Compet.i.tion.

"This news is indeed true. I can verify that it seems to be related to the opening of the Grand Mysterious Realm entrance slots five years later." Shen Cai Qing suddenly interrupted.

Li Mu frowned, and asked with doubt: "Grand Mysterious Realm! What is this? Why have I never heard of it? "

"Junior Brother Li doesn't know about Grand Mysterious Realm? This is truly a strange matter, and it is no longer a secret in my Yuheng Continent. Since I have nothing else to do, it's fine if I tell you. "

"Grand Mysterious Realm is a broken s.p.a.ce and is also an ancient ruin. Its interior area is extremely vast, and it still retains the appearance of the ancient times. Countless medicinal herbs that have long since disappeared from the outside world are growing inside, as well as many precious materials."

"The Grand Mysterious Realm opens once every thousand years, and every time it opens, it will last for up to a month. Because it contains a rich amount of cultivation resources and extinct spirit medicine materials, every time it opens, it would cause a huge commotion and cause countless cultivators to go crazy." Shen Cai Qing explained.

"There is such a good place, and it still retains the appearance of an ancient era. That is truly amazing, but such a place should be fought over by these large sects. To be able to occupy such a precious s.p.a.ce, I believe no sect would be willing to let that temptation go."

Li Mu said with great interest after learning about the news regarding Grand Mysterious Realm.

Shen Cai Qing replied: "Naturally, in this cultivation world where strength reigns supreme, how can such a treasure land be ignored by others? In order to fight for the control of Grand Mysterious Realm, who knows how many great battles broke out among the cultivation sects in the northern part of Yuheng Continent, in the end we reached an agreement, to be controlled by the top ten sects ranked in strength."

"Like I said, but what does this have to do with the upcoming Great Sect Compet.i.tion?" According to what you have said Senior Sister, there is still five years time until the opening of Grand Mysterious Realm. "

Shen Cai Qing shook his head: "This Grand Mysterious Realm has an extremely strange restriction, which is that the person who enters cannot exceed the Innate Realm, and no matter how high their cultivation is, they will be suppressed to the Innate Realm. Furthermore, every time no one else can enter, there will be no more than 500 people.

"Originally, if we split the five hundred spots evenly, there would be fifty for each sect. However, because the ten great sects still have quite a large gap in strength, the tyrannical Heartless Palace and the sects at the front naturally aren't willing to split them equally. Instead, they propose to determine the ranking based on the compet.i.tion between the disciples of the sect."

"Because the strength of Grand Mysterious Realm is limited to the Innate realm, those partic.i.p.ating in the compet.i.tion have always been disciples of the Innate realm. This has already become a precedent. Shen Cai Qing guessed.

"So that's how it is. It seems that it's going to be very lively this time. I've been wanting to see the elite disciples of the other nine great sects of the Northern Region for a long time now."

When Li Mu thought of this, he couldn't help but think of the Xueling Sect's Leng Qingcheng, that cold and beautiful woman who had left a deep impression in his heart.

In the meantime, Li Mu learned a lot of things that he was interested in, such as Heartless Palace, Grand Mysterious Realm. In general, Li Mu had gained a lot this time, and developed a good impression of Shen Cai Qing and Shen Cai Qing. He could already be considered as friends.

"Luan Tian, how much do you know about Grand Mysterious Realm? I saw that you didn't say anything during our discussion so you didn't look like the you I know."

After Shen Cai Qing and Su Yun left, Li Mu asked with a strange tone.

"The reason why I didn't speak is because I don't know much about Grand Mysterious Realm, but I have heard of it before, and I do want to enter to take a look, but this thousand year opening time is too much of a conflict with me, and before the opening time is even up, I am already a cultivator of Tongxuan realm, so I don't have much intention of doing so."

"This Grand Mysterious Realm belongs to the northern part of Yuheng Continent. It's very difficult for outsiders to step foot in, even if my Demonic Sect was the number one sect in the Phecda Continent, the Demon Sect, wouldn't be able to do anything."

Luan Tian helplessly explained.

"I thought you knew everything, but it turns out you don't know either, hehe."

It was rare for him to let a fool like him eat the turtle once, so Li Mu laughed and teased him.

"Kid, do you owe me a lesson? The cultivation world is so vast, how could anyone possibly know everything? Even your Yuheng Continent's Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, which is famous for investigating news, would not know everything."

Luan Tian coldly snorted, completely disdainful of Li Mu's teasing.

In the next few days, Li Mu first spent three days to forge weapons for Liu Canghai and the others. Of course, he didn't miss out on the crystal, and then, as he had nothing better to do, he strolled around the Gold Jade Sect. This was because many disciples of the Gold Jade Sect had come out from closed door cultivation, so there would be many types of small private transactions.

In the past few days, under the guidance of Luan Tian, Li Mu spent hundreds of crystal to buy a few ingredients, which could be considered as a pleasant surprise.

During these few days, the Gold Jade Sect had built a hundred arenas on top of the vast White Jade Square. These arenas were all numbered, obviously for the Great Clan Compet.i.tion.

On this day, a list of contestants was published in front of the main hall of the Gold Jade Sect. The results of the contestants were listed on the list.

"Stage 57, Number 789. Yuwen Ji, mid-stage postcelestial. I wonder how strong she is?"

Standing in front of the Treasure House's gate and looking at the rankings on the bulletin board, Li Mu muttered to himself.

"This person's strength is average, so he should be considered quite famous in my Gold Jade Sect. However, you can be certain that he is no match for you."

A familiar voice sounded from behind Li Mu. He turned around and saw that it was Xiao Kuan.

"So it's Senior Xiao and Senior Tuoba. Do people like you even need to come to the list?"

Seeing Xiao Kuan and Tuoba Han, he said with some surprise.

"Nonsense, if we don't look at the match-up list, how would we know who our opponents are?" Because of the matter of cutting in line at Hall of Venus not long ago, Tuoba Han naturally did not have any good intentions towards Li Mu.

With senior brother Tuoba's strength, how could ordinary people still hope to win when they meet you? Just admit defeat with your tail between your legs and everyone will be worried about you. Why would you even need to look at the leaderboards? Li Mu said with a faint smile.

"Is that so? If you were to face Junior Brother Li in the Large Compet.i.tion, would you surrender with your tail between your legs? I'm really curious. " Tuoba Han replied indifferently.

"Hehe, of course I won't admit defeat with my tail between my legs, but I'm looking forward to fighting with senior brother. I heard that your pair of axes weighs 20,000 pounds. I want to see if my twin hammers can exchange a few blows with senior brother."

Li Mu's eyes surged with fighting spirit. He did not know why, but the moment he saw Tuoba Han, he immediately wanted to have a duel with him. Perhaps it was because was the one with the strongest body tempering cultivation in the same realm.

"Really? I'm also looking forward to it. How about we try it today?" "I like opponents who are arrogant and strong, because I like to break his confidence bit by bit!"

Tuoba Han was not someone to be trifled with. His fighting spirit was surging, and he was not afraid in the slightest when faced with Li Mu's provocation.
