Li Muyan made sense. After hearing this, the four clan leaders looked at each other and fell into silence.
Li Mu is a member of the Xuantian Sword Sect. The secret realm of Cangyuan is related to the inheritance of their eight major families. Even if there is a problem, it is inconvenient for him to intervene. However, on the other hand, Li Mu's weapon refining skills are unparalleled in the world, and they have I begged him, hoping to entrust him to help refine a Taoist weapon and enhance the family heritage.
In addition, as Li Mu said, after tens of thousands of years, some abnormal conditions have indeed appeared in Cangyuan Secret Realm. If he can use his formation skills to repair it, it is indeed a safe choice.
On one side is the inheritance of ancestral precepts, on the other side is the future of the family. Which is more important? For a while, the four patriarchs were unable to make a decision.
Nangong Lie broke the silence first. He took a deep breath, looked at Li Mu and said: "Sect Master Li, let us gather the other clan leaders to discuss it again. By then, we will definitely give you an accurate letter."< br>
"Thank you so much. As for your entrustment to refine Taoist weapons, if this matter can be accomplished, Li will definitely help with all his strength." Li Mu smiled slightly and said.
The meaning of Li Mu's words is obvious. If the eight major families are unwilling to release the Cangyuan Secret Realm to him, then there is no hope of refining Taoist weapons.
The seven fifth-level spiritual plants planted in Qixuan Mountain will be harvested in another hundred years. At that time, he will advance to the Void Refining Realm. Next, Li Mu will plant higher-level spiritual plants for a hundred years. The spiritual plant makes long-term plans.
The seven sub-formations that make up the Chaos Domain Formation have produced seven kinds of extreme spiritual lands. They are undoubtedly very suitable for planting sixth-order spiritual plants, seventh-order spiritual plants, and even eighth-order spiritual plants with corresponding attributes. .
If he can successfully seize these seven extreme spiritual places, Li Mu will no longer have to search for suitable spiritual places in the future, and his future practice matters will be solved once and for all.
Nowadays, the Ji Yin Spirit Land and Ji Jin Spirit Land controlled by Xuantian Sword Sect, Li Mu, as the Supreme Elder, has the qualification to use them without obstruction. The remaining Ji Realm Spirit Lands each have their own ownership, and the Moyuan forces Occupy the Extreme Fire Spiritual Land, the Extreme Water Spiritual Land, the eight major families occupy the Extreme Wood Spiritual Land, and the other Extreme Earth Spiritual Land should be the 'Lingxu Blessed Island' provided by Lord Tianyan. The remaining Extreme Yang Spiritual Land is currently Whereabouts unknown.
To gather all seven spiritual lands within a hundred years, Li Mu felt extremely pressured, especially the two extreme realm spiritual lands under the control of the Moyuan forces. He didn’t know when or what month he would be able to do it. I hope Sword Master Feng and Sword Master Chen can successfully eliminate the demon this time.
This is also the reason why Li Mu spared no effort to refine Taoist weapons for them because he had the intention of 'killing someone with a borrowed knife'.
The four patriarchs are all human spirits, so they can naturally understand the meaning of Li Mu's words. They looked at each other, feeling helpless. This Supreme Elder of the Xuantian Sword Sect not only had excellent formation weapons, but also had excellent negotiation skills.
Zhou Hengping coughed lightly and said: "Sect Master Li, we understand what you mean. It's just that this Cangyuan Secret Realm is indeed related to the core interests of our eight major families, and it is not something we can make the decision easily. But please don't worry. , we will convene other clan leaders to discuss the matter as soon as possible and give you a clear answer as soon as possible.”
"That's very good." Li Mu nodded, his expression still calm, "Then I will wait for your good news."
"Understood, once we make a decision, we will inform you as soon as possible." Shangguan Yun answered.
Li Mu stood up and said goodbye to the four patriarchs. The four patriarchs also stood up and responded, showing special respect to him.
Watching the four people leave, Li Mu sent out his spiritual thoughts and sent a message to the head of the Kun family, Kun Yuanba, who had some thoughts in his mind and needed to communicate with him privately.
After a while, Kun Yuanba, the head of the Kun family, hurriedly left and returned. He looked at Li Mu with some confusion, wondering why the Supreme Elder of the Xuantian Sword Sect left him alone.
"Sect Master Li, do you have any advice?" After Kun Yuanba entered the house, he smiled at Li Mu and asked in confusion.
Li Mu motioned Kun Yuanba to sit down, and explained with a slight smile: "Clan Chief Kun, you are welcome. I have a good relationship with the nobles Tian Shang and Kun Ling. These two seniors know me well and can help me. I think back then, I almost accepted their invitation and joined the Kun family.”
Kun Yuanba’s face showed up when he heard Li Mu mention the past of the two nobles and him almost joining the Kun family. He was surprised and stunned, and secretly annoyed in his heart. If Kun Ling had put more effort back then, Grandmaster Li might have been allowed to join the Kun family.
However, Kun Yuanba is the leader of a clan after all, and the city is very deep. He quickly calmed down his emotions and said with emotion: "It turns out that Sect Master Li, Kun Ling, Tian Shang and the others still have such a connection, it is really shocking "I feel honored."
"Well, where are the two seniors now?" Li Mu asked with concern.
"In this demon-slaying war, they fought on behalf of the Kun family." Kun Yuanba answered without hesitation, and then added: "Tian Shang, Kun Ling and the others are the pillars of the Kun family. There are also several clan elders involved in this war. Together, we should be able to return smoothly."
Li Mu nodded in understanding. As members of the Kun family, the two seniors cannot avoid such involuntary things.
“I wonder if Sect Leader Li is leaving me this time, what important matters do we need to discuss?” Kun Yuanba looked at Li Mu and asked puzzledly. If he had just asked Kun Ling and the others about their situation, he would have been above board just now. said.
Li Mu smiled slightly and spoke slowly: "Chief Kun, to be honest, I do have an important matter to discuss with the Kun family this time. In addition to my concern for the two seniors Kun Ling and Tian Shang, I also hope to reach a private deal with the Kun family."
Kun Yuanba raised his eyebrows slightly, and was very interested in the private deal Li Mu said. Li Mu is the top weapon refiner in the world. If he can do it. Reaching cooperation will be of great help to the overall strength of the Kun family.
"Oh? Sect Master Li is willing to trade with our Kun family?" Kun Yuanba's tone was filled with surprise. He looked at Li Mu and asked, "This is indeed an exciting proposal. I wonder what Sect Master Li actually thinks?"
"Clan Chief Kun, have you ever heard of the Li Family Treasure House?" Li Mu asked with a slight smile.
"Of course I have heard of the Li Family Treasure House. This building was established not long ago. The spiritual weapons and elixirs sold are all high-quality products and are highly praised among the monks. Could it be that Sect Leader Li means..." A glint flashed in Kun Yuanba's eyes, as if he had guessed Li Mu's intention.
"Yes, this building is run by the person I ordered. Are the Kun family willing to have in-depth cooperation with the Li Family Zhenbao Building?" Li Mu smiled and nodded, confirming Kun Yuanba's guess, and decided to support Kun's family.
The eight major families are definitely not monolithic. Only by supporting some and suppressing others can Li Mu achieve the goal he hopes for.
Hearing this, Kun Yuanba frowned and pondered, as if he was weighing the pros and cons of this proposal. Cooperating with Li's Treasure House means cooperating with Li Mu. With his superb weapon refining skills, it will undoubtedly bring huge benefits to the Kun family. Benefit.
However, under the huge interests, there are often unknown dangers hidden. As the head of the Kun family, Kun Yuanba has to act cautiously and considerately. "Sect Master Li, why do you suddenly have this idea?" Kun Yuanba looked at Li Mu with deep meaning and asked.
Li Mu met Kun Yuanba's gaze and said calmly: "Clan Chief Kun, to be honest, the reason why I have this idea is because I have taken a fancy to the strength of the Kun family. And potential, another important reason is for the Cangyuan Secret Realm, I hope the Kun family can fully support me. "Hmm! Is there something that Sect Master Li is determined to get in the Secret Realm?" Kun Yuanba looked solemn. He stood up, looked directly at Li Mu, and asked warily.
Hearing this, Li Mu shook his head and smiled, denying: "I have nothing I am determined to obtain. Chief Kun misunderstood. I just want to plant some high-level spiritual plants in Cangyuan Secret Realm. These spiritual plants will be of great help to my cultivation." , but it has extremely high requirements on the external environment. Only the special environment in Cangyuan Secret Realm can meet its growth conditions."
After hearing this, Kun Yuanba frowned slightly, as if he was not completely satisfied with this explanation. He pondered for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "Just planting a group of spiritual plants? If necessary, why doesn't Sect Leader Li cooperate with us... Why can't we find spiritual plants? So troublesome?"
Li Mu took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Clan Chief Kun, what Li said is absolutely not deceiving at all. My purpose is indeed just to plant a batch of special spiritual plants in the Cangyuan secret realm. I can swear an oath with the Taoist heart, and at the same time, I can also I can guarantee that the interests of the Kun family will not be harmed in this transaction."
After hearing this, Kun Yuanba's eyes flashed with surprise. He did not expect that Li Mu would take the matter so seriously and even be willing to say so. Xin vowed to testify, which made him trust Li Mu even more.
"Thank you Sect Leader Li for your trust. However, the resolution of the Cangyuan Secret Realm requires the unanimous approval of the eight major families before the resolution can be passed. What the Kun family can do is very limited!" Kun Yuanba frowned. Said with some embarrassment.
Li Mu nodded, expressing his understanding of Kun Yuanba's difficulties, and said bluntly with a smile: "Clan Chief Kun, I understand what you mean. If you consider this matter in the long run and take some time to plan, it will not be difficult to solve this matter."
"Oh? What's the clever plan of Sect Master Li?" Kun Yuanba asked curiously.
Li Mu smiled slightly and said confidently: "Clan Chief Kun, if the other seven families can see the actual benefits gained from our cooperation, then they will naturally be willing to support me in entering the Cangyuan Secret Realm to plant spirits. Zhi."
Hearing this, Kun Yuanba's eyes flashed, and he understood what Li Mu meant. He wanted to seduce the eight major families through benefits. Although this method was crude and direct, it was very effective. After all, no matter what No family would refuse huge benefits, and the Kun family was the first to take advantage of the situation and gained the most.
Kun Yuanba secretly calculated in his heart, knowing that this is a rare opportunity. If he can establish a long-term cooperative relationship with Li Mu, then the Kun family will reap huge benefits in the future, and may be able to surpass Nangong and the Wang family in one fell swoop. Become the first family.
Kun Yuanba took a deep breath, looked at Li Mu and said solemnly: "Sect Master Li, this plan is indeed very attractive, I agree!"
Hearing this, Li Mu showed a satisfied smile. , confidently said: "Clan Chief Kun, thank you for your trust, our cooperation will definitely be very successful."
"Definitely, definitely, it is my turn to thank Sect Master Li." Kun Yuanba laughed loudly and gestured He said: "However, the specific cooperation details still need to be further discussed."
"Of course." Li Mu nodded and continued: "At that time, I will ask shopkeeper Liu to visit us to discuss the cooperation details."
The two chatted happily, and Li Mu made some spiritual tea to greet them.
A few days later, Liu Yalan, on behalf of Li Mu, had many in-depth communications and exchanges with the Kun family. The two parties conducted detailed discussions and planning on the cooperative spiritual material procurement, spiritual weapon transactions, etc., including the sharing of resources and the distribution of benefits. ,etc.
Time flies. With Li Mu's concession, the Kun family has gained great benefits from this cooperation. The red fire phoenix was refined, the green jade ginseng king refined high-level elixirs and talismans, and even Li Mu refined them himself. Sixth-level spiritual treasures and various rare resources continued to flow in, laying a solid foundation for the Kun family's leap in strength.
With the deepening of the cooperation, the Kun family members are increasingly aware of the huge benefits brought by this cooperation. Not only are the collections in the family treasure house increasingly abundant, but the cultivation of the clan members has also improved due to the acquisition of high-quality cultivation resources. Progress by leaps and bounds.
The Kun family’s status among other families has gradually risen. The families that originally competed with the Kun family saw that the Kun family’s strength had greatly increased due to their cooperation with Li Mu. They all became shaken, and some began to spy on Liu Yalan. He wanted to cooperate with the Kun family and Li Mu to get a share of the pie, but failed to get a satisfactory answer.
However, the head of the Kun family successfully commissioned Li Mu to refine Taoist weapons, which was already in progress, which made the seven major families very nervous.
The Kun family somehow managed to win over Li Mu's thick thigh. He was backed by the Xuantian Sword Sect and had two unique formations and weapons. He was a veritable genius. Now that the Kun family has received its help, it is even more like a fish in water, and its power is growing day by day.
The seven major families naturally saw this and were anxious about it.
They tried to contact Li Mu one after another, but were declined without exception. Li Mu seemed to only favor the Kun family, which made other families feel frustrated.
The news that the head of the Kun family commissioned Li Mu to refine the Taoist weapons was like a bombshell, causing an uproar among the seven major families. The Taoist weapons are extremely powerful. Once the refining is successful, the Kun family's The strength will reach a higher level, which is unacceptable to other families.
The heads of the seven major families gathered together again to discuss countermeasures.
"Kun Yuanba, that shameless old thief, let him hook up with that kid. He must have promised something to him." Wang Hong, the head of the Wang family with white hair and beard, said angrily.
"What should we do now? If Kun Yuanba is allowed to obtain the Dao soldiers, can he continue to be rampant?" Ji Zhantian, the head of the Ji family, looked at everyone with worry and asked.
"We must find ways to stop him! We can't just sit back and wait for death." Shangguan Yun frowned and suggested.
"That's easy to say, how to attack? Directly attack the Kun family?" Ouyang Wu, the head of the Ouyang family, retorted with a cold smile and said: "The Kun family now has the support of the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect and a large number of high-level spiritual treasures. With support and Taoist soldiers in hand, we can't defeat them together."
"Don't forget, two thousand years ago, there were thirteen top immortal cultivating families in the Zhongzhou Spiritual Realm. Now, there are only one left. There are eight of us!" Nangong Lie reminded every clan leader present with a sinister look in his eyes: "If the Kun family is allowed to dominate, who can ensure that he will not gradually cannibalize us in the future?"
Hearing this, the Nuo University meeting fell into silence. The heads of the major families looked solemn and their hearts were full of worries. They all knew very well that the strong rise of the Kun family posed a huge threat to their status and interests. (End of this chapter)
