Chapter 78 - Innate Severed Arms
As Zhong Hao circulated his cultivation technique, the skin on his body instantly became bright silver, and even his hair turned from black to silver. He flexed the muscles and bones in his body, and exploded out with a burst of crackling sounds."Interesting, this evil light bone refining technique is actually a demonic cultivation technique, but its level is too low. Although this guy has a Xiantian cultivation base, his body strength is still weaker than yours."
Luan Tian"s voice sounded out in Li Mu"s mind. The moment he heard Luan Tian say that his opponent"s physical strength was weaker than his, Li Mu immediately had confidence."Whoosh!"
Zhong Hao moved, he turned into a silver light and pounced towards Li Mu, bringing with him a strong gust of wind, he was extremely imposing.Li Mu did not want to be outdone, so he circulated his Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations to the limit and welcomed Zhong Hao.
"Bam!"
"Clang!"
All sorts of sounds of metal clashing could be heard from time to time. Li Mu and Zhong Hao got into a fight, one of them releasing a silver light while the other released a black golden light, like two gold and silver war G.o.ds, their bodies clashing head on."Amazing! This Senior Martial Brother Li"s cultivation base is much lower than Senior Martial Brother Zhong"s. He actually didn"t lose to Senior Martial Brother Li in a single strike!"
"Aren"t you talking nonsense? You don"t even have much to say before Elder Chi Yun takes you in as an honorary disciple."
All sorts of discussions could be heard among the spectating outer sect disciples. At the start, they were not optimistic about Li Mu"s strength, but after seeing it, they all started to praise him.
Not far from the battlefield where Li Mu and Li Mu were fighting, w.a.n.g Cheng and w.a.n.g Dafu were secretly observing the battle from the sidelines. w.a.n.g Cheng was expressionless, and his eyes were staring at the battle without moving an inch.
As for w.a.n.g Dafu, he had already changed into the white clothes of an outer disciple. His right eye was covered with a black monocle, which, when matched with his fat body, made him look rather pleasing."Brother, that little b.a.s.t.a.r.d surnamed Li is not weak at all. He is actually not inferior to a Xiantian master at all!"
Zhu Da Fu coldly spoke with a venomous expression as he watched Li Mu skillfully fight with Zhong Hao.
"Your eye is so blind that it doesn"t make sense. I really believe that the other party messed up and made you blind because the other party took your life too easily!" w.a.n.g Cheng said in a cold tone.
w.a.n.g Dafu asked in confusion: "You sent this Zhong Hao to probe him, why didn"t you do it yourself? If you attack, I believe that Li Mu that little b.a.s.t.a.r.d will not be able to hold on for long! ""You think too much, the muddy water in Gold Jade Sect is not so easy to mix with. Look over there, there are a lot of people paying attention to this battle!" w.a.n.g Cheng looked in a direction as he spoke.
w.a.n.g Dafu followed w.a.n.g Cheng"s gaze and looked over, discovering that not far away in a corner, Liu Canghai and another disciple from the inner sect of the Gold Jade Sect was also silently watching the battle, and it seemed that Liu Canghai noticed w.a.n.g Cheng"s gaze, so he unceremoniously glared at w.a.n.g Cheng, and even made a fist clenching motion, as though he was trying to provoke him."Evil Light Slash!"
A shout resounded for a few hundred metres around, Zhong Hao"s entire person transformed into a ray of blade light, rushing towards Li Mu, all of the ground in the surroundings cracked and crumbled into pieces, obviously showing that Zhong Hao"s Evil Light Slash was not an ordinary technique.
Seeing that the other party had turned into a human-shaped blade light, Li Mu felt a sense of danger. He pulled out the partridge that was stuck in his back and injected his True Essence inside his body, and slashed his sword towards the human-shaped blade light.
"Clang!"
With a crisp sound, the sword light from the blade cut the partridge into two. Li Mu"s face changed, the river crossing step beneath his feet activated immediately and he moved horizontally in a flash. If he was not fast enough, even if the attack landed on him, he would have lost a layer of skin.
"You can"t escape, my Evil Light Slash can"t cut through anything, the next thing is your arm or head! "Hahaha!"From within the blade light came Zhong Hao"s loud laughter. The blade light was as fast as lightning and with an astonishing speed, it turned and rushed towards Li Mu once again.
"What kind of martial skill is that? It"s so sharp, even a partridge made of the essence of Li Tie couldn"t withstand a single blow!"Looking at the half of the partridge in his hand, Li Mu felt reluctant. The sword was given to him by Li Zhenglong.
Seeing the human-shaped blade light flying towards him, Li Mu did not dare to take it head on. Although he believed that his physical body was much stronger than the partridge"s, but he was sure that he would not be cut into two.Although Zhong Hao"s human shaped blade was fast, compared to the river crossing step, it was still slower. It was fortunate that Li Mu"s movement technique was not weak, otherwise, he might not be able to handle it.
"What kind of man are you trying to run away from, take one of my attacks head on if you have the ability!" "You coward!"
Zhong Hao was fuming because of Li Mu"s river crossing step, he had his battle power, but it was useless. Every time he was about to hit Li Mu, the other party would always dodge, which made him extremely angry, and made him use the method of provocation."Mu Xiaozi, you should just use Zhan Qianqiu. That strange dagger is somewhat miraculous, even I am unable to determine its origin. As it has done many miraculous things in the past, I believe that it will not be an exception this time!"
Before could even speak, Luan Tian could not help but shout loudly. In his opinion, being chased until he kept on escaping was truly humiliating for him, as the devil king of Luan Tian.
Li Mu took out Zhan Qianqiu from his chest without even thinking, it was not that he did not think of this, but he wanted to see if he could rely on brute force to break through the opponent"s strange attack, but as Huntian opened his mouth, Li Mu gave up, because if there was a way, Huntian would not let him borrow Zhan Qianqiu"s help.
"You call me a coward. Do you think I"m really afraid of you?! Today, I"ll make you regret coming here!"
Li Mu stopped his river crossing step, and looked straight at Zhong Hao who had turned into silver blade light, and said loudly."Anyone can brag like that. Let"s see the truth from the bottom of our hearts!"
Zhong Hao"s arrogant sneer came from within the silver blade light. With a flash of silver light, he arrived in front of Li Mu.
"Break!"Li Mu coldly shouted as he swept his hand across and struck the silver human-shaped blade light.
"Pfft!"
"s figure appeared, and at the same time, his left arm fell from mid air, with blood all over the ground.
"AHH!"Zhong Hao screamed miserably. He covered his wound with his right hand, looked at the severed arm on the ground, and then looked at Zhan Qianqiu who was in Li Mu"s hand. He had an expression of unwillingness to believe it even at death"s door.
"Just you wait …" The enmity of losing an arm was irreconcilable! I will definitely make you pay! "Zhong Hao picked up his severed arm and endured the pain from his wound as he fled. Before he left, he did not forget to say some harsh words, and the few Outer Sect Disciples that followed him did not dare to stay behind either.
Li Mu did not chase after him, nor did he intend to fight to the death with him. The Gold Jade Sect had a clear rule that one could fight to the death with others, but one must not kill.
Not far away, w.a.n.g Cheng and w.a.n.g Dafu had extremely ugly expressions on their faces when they saw the result of the battle."Senior brother Li is powerful!"
"Senior brother Li is mighty!"
After Zhong Hao left, the surrounding disciples of the Gold Jade Sect outer sect all started to clap and cheer, they were extremely happy with Li Mu"s victory. Later when he had defeated an Innate Ranker with his cultivation at the Sky Realm, they even let him keep his arm, they naturally wanted to curry favor with him.
"Junior Brothers, am I too handsome, or is Zhong Hao too ugly? You guys are actually so happy after defeating him, are you not afraid that he will take revenge later?"
Looking at the many cheering and clapping disciples from the outer sect of Gold Jade Sect, Li Mu did not know whether to laugh or cry as he asked.
"Senior brother Li, you should not be aware of this, Senior brother Zhong Hao has always been a tyrant, ever since he became an inner sect disciple with his cultivation, he has exploited us outer sect disciples. You took action to teach him a lesson, and naturally helped us vent our anger."
"That"s right, the people of the Eastern Sect have always been tyrannical, and did not put the West Sect disciples in their eyes. Serves them right for kicking a metal board like Senior Brother Li Mu!"
An outer court disciple replied in an extremely pleased manner.
"Eastern Faction, Western Faction, how come our Gold Jade Sect is divided into factions?"
Li Mu had an extremely weird expression, he had not heard of any news about the two sects from Liu Canghai."It"s like this, in our Gold Jade Sect …"
"Shut up!" You can all go now! "
Just as an outer sect disciple was about to explain to Li Mu about the matters of the East and West Sects, Li Mu"s familiar voice suddenly came from not too far away.
Li Mu turned his head to look, only to see Liu Canghai and another unfamiliar Gold Jade Sect Inner Sect disciple. The two of them walked to Li Mu with smiles on their faces.
"Brother Li!" How is it? "Seeing Li Mu"s naturally familiar expression, the moment he asked with a smile, and as for the other Gold Jade Sect inner disciple accompanying his, he sized Li Mu up with interest.
It was a young man who did not look to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. His long hair was draped over his shoulders and his face was calm.
"Thanks to Brother Liu"s concern, I"m doing fine. May I know who this senior brother is?"Li Mu looked at the young man who was staring at him, and asked with a smile.
The young man cupped his hands at Li Mu, and introduced himself: "This one is Xiao Yi, Junior Brother Li"s future heaven realm enemy, Zhong Hao, and cut off one of his arms. I, Xiao, am impressed!"
"So it"s Senior-apprentice Brother Xiao. I was just lucky. How can my cultivation be as high as Senior-apprentice Brother Xiao"s? I"m ashamed!"Li Mu laughed humbly, then looked at Liu Canghai and said: "Brother Liu, I still do not understand, what did my junior brothers say about the East Sect and West Sect, what does that mean? I have not heard that the Gold Jade Sect is divided into different things."
"Hahaha, actually Brother Li doesn"t need to be suspicious about this. You yourself are from the Western Faction, you just don"t know that."
Liu Canghai and Xiao Yi looked at each other, and laughed."I am from the West? What do you mean? I still don"t understand, these are all disciples of the Gold Jade Sect, so it"s definitely just the difference between inner and outer sect.
