Chapter 303: Heaven’s Secret Backlash
Huajie Baofu, in the refining room.
The refining room is circular in shape, a hundred meters in diameter, and extremely wide. The white jade-like walls are inlaid with countless spiritual ores, which sometimes light up and sometimes go out, as if they are breathing, spewing out massive amounts of spiritual power.
Li Mu sat cross-legged on the refining table paved with white spiritual stones, squeezing the magic formula with both hands. In front of him, a purple-gold sky fire refining furnace condensed into shape.
At this time, the sky fire The space around the refining furnace seemed to have solidified. The sky fire in the heavenly fire refining furnace stopped, and a small green turtle crawled out from the sky fire refining furnace with a special aura.
The fortune turtle, a treasure of age divination, was re-refined with the blessing of a large number of spiritual materials of the years, and restored a trace of its original spirituality. The originally gray turtle shell now exudes a faint green light, and the originally dull eyes have also changed. Shining bright and full of spirituality, his limbs drew in the void and flew towards Li Mu.
Li Mu quickly stopped the technique, his face beaming with joy, and he stretched out his hand to pick up the Fortune Turtle.
However, at this moment, with a "click", an invisible magical power was produced out of thin air, and hammered hard on the Fortune Turtle.
The Fortune Turtle stumbled in the air and fell directly into Li Mu's arms.
“What happened?” Li Mu was startled and hurriedly caught the Fortune Turtle, looking at the Fortune Turtle in confusion.
The fortune turtle's weapon spirit had a pair of bright eyes, showing an aggrieved look. He looked at Li Mu for a moment. The white spirit turtle's armor that had been repaired cracked and cracked. His newly recovered spirituality was hit hard again, and he looked sluggish. Depressed look.
Li Mu was stunned and didn't understand what was happening. The Fortune Turtle had obviously been retrained by him and its spirituality had been restored. Why did it suddenly have problems again?
It seems to have been hit hard, what happened.
Li Mu looked down at the Fortune Turtle in his arms and entered the state of spiritual awareness.
The spiritual consciousness communicated with the Fortune Turtle, and soon, Li Mu immediately understood the reason.
Just now, someone made a divine deduction about him. This power of deduction is so vast that it seems to be able to see through everything. As a divination treasure, the Fortune Turtle was naturally aware of the existence of this power for the first time.
The fortune turtle's weapon spirit has its own ability to protect its master. Trying to use his own power of cause and effect to resist this force of deduction, he concealed the secret from his master.
The Fortune Turtle did conceal the secret from Li Mu. However, the power of deduction was so powerful that the Fortune Turtle tried its best to fight against it. In the end, they had a fight with each other and suffered the backlash of the secret. This is As a result, not only did its repaired injuries not improve, but new injuries were added to the old injuries before they healed.
After learning about this situation, Li Mu didn't need to think too much. He probably guessed who was calculating him. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be the Ji family. Fortunately, this time the Fortune Turtle just recovered his spirituality and helped him withstand this. derivation.
Looking at the Fortune Turtle, this ill-fated spiritual treasure, Li Mu felt a strong sense of guilt in his heart.
He didn't expect that the Ji family would use this method to predict him. Fortunately, the Luck Turtle blocked this crisis for him.
……
Zhongzhou Lingyu, Tianji Pavilion.
On the top floor of Tianji Pavilion, in a quiet and mysterious secret room, the air is filled with light sandalwood. In the center, a white-haired old man was concentrating with his eyes closed, connecting with the Heavenly Secret Realm and deducing the Heavenly Secret.
The old man was wearing a white robe with complex runes embroidered on it. His face was ruddy and his eyes were staring at the Tianji Mirror in front of him. The face was filled with spiritual fog, and some blurry images that only old man Tianji could see were gradually becoming clear.
However, at this moment, a green turtle suddenly broke into the mirror, opened its mouth and bit it, and a powerful rebound force suddenly erupted.
Old man Tianji's body suddenly trembled, as if there was an invisible force coming from all around and rushing into his body. He only felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if he was being pricked by a needle, and the pain was almost unbearable.
With a sound of "Poof!", Old Man Tianji finally couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood. The scarlet blood fell on the Tianji Realm, like blooming flowers, spreading a strong smell of blood.
Old man Tianji's body succumbed, his face was covered in sweat, and his face turned pale, as if he had suffered a sudden heavy blow. His originally strong body suddenly became extremely weak.
"Fellow Tianji, you, what's wrong with you!" Ji Wuheng shouted in surprise. He had been waiting for the old man Tianji. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help being frightened.
Old Man Tianji didn't answer him, he just stared at Ji Wuheng with his eyes wide open, and said angrily: "Ji, I was harmed by you this time, and my life span was shortened by two hundred years!"
Ji Wuheng was stunned. , He never expected that Old Man Tianji would say such words. He stammered and asked: "Fellow Taoist Tianji, what does this mean? Have you deduced anything?"
Tianji old man did not answer his question, but sighed heavily, He said with great regret: "It's all my fault that I was greedy for a while and did a favor for our Ji family. I didn't follow the rules that Tianji Pavilion has always strictly prohibited. Don't make inferences about young talents with human-dragon qualifications."
"The posture of a human dragon?" Ji Wuheng's heart moved. He had seen this word in ancient classics, and it refers to those who have amazing talents and excellent luck. These outstanding human dragons may be the sons of heaven, born with excellent luck, and can often appear when the human race is in crisis and lead the human race to overcome the crisis.
The cost of the secret inference for such a son of heaven is not something that ordinary secret masters can bear.
"Yes, the posture of a human dragon." Old Man Tianji said with a bitter smile, "I know this truth, but I still can't help but refuse your request for deduction. Now it's okay. This time the deduction failed, I suffered the backlash of Tianji , Two hundred years of life have been lost in vain.”
“Fellow Taoist Tianji, can you tell me clearly what the situation is? Even if you have to take responsibility, Ji will never shirk it!” Ji Wuheng was horrified! He couldn't stop looking at Old Man Tianji and praying for a more accurate answer.
“This child is blessed by the weapon of cause and effect, and the inference of heaven’s secret cannot be used to deduce it. This time, it is good to shorten his life. If the other party deliberately targets me, my life will not be enough. Even in the realm of heaven’s secret, it is good. They may all be injured because of this!" Old Man Tianji looked at Ji Wuheng and introduced coldly.
Hearing this, Ji Wuheng took a breath and his eyes were full of shock. He did not expect that a mere Nascent Soul cultivator could be so terrifying, even possessing the treasure of cause and effect that concealed the secret of heaven.
This is the Tianji Mirror, a Tianji derivation used by the old man Tianji himself. The other party's spiritual weapon to cover up Tianji requires at least a sixth-level spiritual treasure and a seventh-level Taoist weapon to do it.
"It is my own fault that I have ended up like this. I advise you not to provoke this guy!" Old Man Tianji looked at Ji Wuheng with warning eyes and reminded him kindly.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist Tianji. Our Ji family has recorded this favor. I will send you a spiritual elixir to make up for your loss later. I also ask fellow Taoist Tianji for your forgiveness." Ji Wuheng expressed gratitude to Old Man Tianji bowed his hands and thanked him gratefully.
Old man Tianji glanced at Ji Wuheng angrily, waved his hand, lost interest in talking, and signaled that he could leave!
"Fellow Taoist Tianji, please take good care of yourself and I won't disturb you any more!" Ji Wuheng stood up, said goodbye to old man Tianji, and then left in a hurry. He was anxious to deduce the consequences of this incident. Notify the owner of the results as soon as possible.
Soon after, Ji Wuheng returned to Ji's house. He quickly walked into the family hall and reported the results of this deduction to the head of the family.
"Patriarch, the result of this deduction is not good..." Ji Wuheng reported the details to the Patriarch Ji Zhantian with a solemn expression.
Ji Zhantian raised his head, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, looked at Ji Wuheng and said, "Oh? The deduction failed. Is this child blessed by a device of cause and effect?" "Yes, head of the family." Ji Wuheng nodded. Nodding, "Old Man Tianji said that this child is blessed by the instrument of cause and effect, and it is impossible to deduce the secret of heaven."
"Old Man Tianji has lost two hundred years of life, this favor Ji family Okay, go to the clan library and pick out some longevity-enhancing elixirs to send over!" Ji Zhantian sighed helplessly.
"Understood! But, head of the family, what should we do with this son?" Ji Wuheng nodded, looked at Ji Zhantian and asked with concern.
Hearing this, Ji Zhantian was in trouble for a while. If he couldn't find Li Mu's roots, he couldn't resolutely take revenge. Even the Ji family didn't have such a qualified Nascent Soul cultivator. There must be a big force behind that kid, otherwise , bring such qualifications and resources.
However, because of the dead wood, the Ji family had to form a deep hatred with this son. If such an enemy is not eliminated as soon as possible, it will be an unsolvable disaster when he grows up.
......
All kinds of worries flashed in Ji Zhantian's eyes, and finally he sighed deeply, looked at Ji Wuheng, and arranged helplessly: "Let the secret guards pay attention to his whereabouts first, and wait for the rest. Let’s discuss a countermeasure at the next Elders’ Meeting!”
Ji Wuheng nodded and went down to make arrangements.
On the nameless island, the Earth Spirit Ship soared into the sky.
In the vast sea area, islands are dotted all over the place, like bright pearls scattered in the rippling blue sea.
At this moment, Li Mu was standing on the deck of the Earth Spirit Ship, looking far into the distance, looking for the island with high-level spiritual veins.
The Ji family's deduction for him this time was fortunately blocked by the Fortune Turtle. However, Li Mu knew that this kind of luck would not last forever.
The Ji family is one of the eight major cultivation families in the Zhongzhou Spiritual Realm. It has been inherited for thousands of years and has huge power. No one can guarantee what kind of magical means it has.
Moreover, it is not an exaggeration to say that the Ji family is a local snake in the Central Continent Spiritual Realm. With such a behemoth spying on him, Li Mu would not be stupid enough to rush over thousands of miles away to die.
Li Mu immediately changed his itinerary and was no longer in a hurry to go to the Spiritual Realm of Central Continent. He was looking for an island with high-level spiritual veins. He would completely live in seclusion and continue planting spiritual plants. After he advanced to become a god, Make other considerations.
"Master Li, where are we going?" Xueer walked to Li Mu and asked with concern.
Li Mu turned to look at Xueer, smiled slightly, and explained: "We are on the way to Wanxing Island."
"Wanxing Island?" Xueer repeated curiously , "Where is that place?"
"It is located in a vast sea area in the northeastern part of Southern Wilderness. There are tens of thousands of islands scattered there, and there are hundreds of high-level islands. It is the sphere of influence of the Ten Thousand Islands Sect and the Poseidon Sect." Li Mu explained in detail.
“Oh.” Xue'er: "This jade slip records the route from the Southern Wilderness to the Zhongzhou Spiritual Realm, and also describes in detail the distribution of various forces along the way. Take a look for yourself."
Xue'er took the sea map The jade slip, his consciousness moved slightly, and he scanned it.
Xue'er frowned slightly and asked in confusion: "Master Li, aren't we going to Zhongzhou? Why are we going to Wanxing Island instead?"
Li Mu looked at Xue'er and smiled calmly: "We are indeed on the way to Zhongzhou now, but before that, we have to go to Wanxing Island to stay for a while."
"Master Li, yes Are you worried about the Ji family?" Xue'er asked with concern
"The Ji family has nothing to worry about. I just plan to find an island and live in seclusion for a while, and then I will consider going to Zhongzhou after Qingyue survives the thunderstorm. !" Li Mu smiled at Xue'er and said with relief.
Hearing this, Xueer couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. In the past few days, Li Mu looked worried. She looked in her eyes and felt anxious in her heart, but she didn't know what Mr. Li was worried about. After getting a detailed answer, , she couldn't help but feel a little relieved.
"Don't worry about these things blindly. In terms of cultivation, have you improved recently? How is your cultivation progress?"
Seeing Xue'er's little thoughts, Li Mu was moved and asked seriously with a straight face.
Xue'er is talented and intelligent, and has activated the Sky Fox bloodline in her body. However, she is restless by nature and has many thoughts on her mind, making it difficult for her to concentrate on practicing. Although she has been practicing hard, she has been stuck at the fifth level for some time and has been unable to break through.
Li Mu knows Xueer's character well and knows where her bottleneck lies in her cultivation. The way to practice requires down-to-earth practice and hard work. Although Xueer is talented, she is often easily disturbed by external things, resulting in unsatisfactory results in her practice.
"Master Li, I just came out of seclusion and practice, so just relax for a while!" Xueer's expression became a little nervous when Li Mu asked her, and she replied aggrievedly.
Hearing this, Li Mu frowned slightly and looked a little unhappy. Xueer had indeed just come out of seclusion to practice, but it only took a while. However, cultivation is not something that can be accomplished overnight. It requires perseverance. Xueer did not Didn't realize this.
"Besides, I see you haven't practiced much yourself, why are you always urging me to practice!" Xue'er secretly glanced at Li Mu and asked aggrievedly.
Seeing Xueer's aggrieved look and denounced himself in return, Li Mu couldn't help but feel funny in his heart. He understood what Xueer meant, but he did not respond directly. After all, he does have some cards and tricks that Xue'er doesn't know about.
Ha!
I have it, do you?
Can you compare with me? If I plant a batch of spiritual plants, I can break through to a great realm. Can you?
Looking at Xue'er who looked unconvinced, Li Mu smiled slightly and asked firmly: "You want to compete with me? I haven't practiced much, but I am sure that I can break through to the realm of God within fifty years, and you are sure that I can break through to the realm of transformation within a hundred years. Can you break through the sixth level within yourself? If you are confident that you can do it, I will never ask you about your cultivation."
Hearing this, Xueer was speechless. She really couldn't guarantee that she could do it in a hundred years. Breaking through the sixth level within, this is like the sixth level transformation level of the Chasm. I don’t know how many high-level monsters are stuck.
The same is true for human monks. No Nascent Soul monk can be so sure as to when he will break through to the realm of gods, and it will be in such a short time.
However, Xueer did not suspect that Li Mu was telling lies. She had followed Li Mu for so many years and she had witnessed too many impossible miracles in him.
"Okay! Okay! Just go and practice!"
Xue'er's mouth dropped, and she turned around and returned to the cabin helplessly to practice in seclusion.
