Chapter 913 An inexplicable surprise
Lin Mu flew lightly onto the battle stage.
Like thousands of cultivators, he pretended to be waiting patiently.
It was as if he knew nothing about Du Cheng's death.
In order to protect yourself, every detail needs to be covered up and no flaws should be exposed.
He and Du Cheng were absent from three games at the same time. Now that he has come back, Du Cheng still has no news. If he hears that he is playing against Du Cheng, his face will show joy. There is no guarantee that no one will doubt that he already knows about Du Cheng's death. , and then cast suspicion on him.
The one who can force Du Cheng to self-destruct his Nascent Soul is a cultivator with a peerless spiritual treasure.
Naturally, the secret of his peerless spiritual treasure will be known to other cultivators.
"It seems that Du Cheng is still unable to fight in this battle." The cultivators in the audience began to discuss.
"Lin Mu really got a huge advantage!"
"My cultivation level has declined, but I can still win a game!"
"Du Cheng can't come. The one at the bottom is Du Cheng, and Lin Mu is second to last."
The elder in white did not close the ancient ban around the battle stage. The cultivators in the audience were talking about it, and Lin Mu could hear it clearly.
The wall fell and everyone pushed it.
Now that he has fallen into decline, he is ranked second from the bottom. Many cultivators think that he has taken a huge advantage.
Before his cultivation level declined, many people were optimistic that he could enter the top ten.
Now I no longer have hope for him.
Many cultivators thought that he took advantage of Du Cheng's absence, but in fact, Du Cheng was killed by him.
In a real duel, he could still defeat Du Cheng.
He deserves the fruits of victory now.
Lin Mu was very open-minded.
He can't control what others think, he can only be himself.
He was even secretly happy.
Now thousands of cultivators no longer think highly of him. If he can counterattack all the way and become the top ten, it will definitely shock their minds even more and make them unforgettable for the rest of their lives.
A cultivator in the early stage of returning to the void became the top ten in the mineral vein competition competition. This is a myth in itself.
Although Lin Mu himself knew that there was little hope, he wanted to give it a try.
If you haven’t tried it, who knows it won’t work?
If he really does it, and all the credit will go to Misty Fairyland in the future, you can imagine how crazy thousands of cultivators will be, and how popular the Jade Slips will be.
Even a Blue Star Jade Slip worth tens of millions of spiritual stones would definitely sell a lot.
Lin Mu was making ideas in his mind, and time passed unknowingly.
Du Cheng still didn't show up.
The elder in white quickly announced the result of the competition: "In this round, Lin Mu wins!"
A smile appeared on Lin Mu's face at this moment. After giving the elder a smile and a signal, he flew down from the battle stage.
He didn't stay here with Gu Zhenhao any longer, and went directly to the Yuelai Inn.
The next three days were extremely precious to him.
Sui Xin Jian Ming Neng had previously absorbed and refined an Earth-grade Concentration Bead, and its power had been restored a little, but it was still far from enough.
Returning to Yuelai Inn, Lin Mu went straight to his quiet room, placed many restrictions, and then entered the rotating moon space again.
After entering the Misty Fairyland for inspection, Lin Mu regretfully found that the current spiritual knowledge in the Misty Fairyland was not enough to condense an Earth-grade Condensation Bead.
As for the peerless Condensation Bead, its essence is considered pure. It can be used to restore the power of a psychic magic weapon. However, if it is used to restore the power of a peerless spiritual treasure, the effect is minimal.
Lin Mu simply decided to wait patiently for two more days.
In the rotating moon space, he actually has six days.
This time cannot be wasted at all.
Lin Mu immediately took out two bottles of healing elixirs, swallowed them, began to refine and absorb the effects, and carefully recuperated his injuries.
His lower abdomen was directly pierced by the Infant-Destroying Shuttle, and his physical injuries had not yet fully recovered. He was too busy restoring the power of the Sui Xin Sword and improving his combat power to bother with it.
Now, he can't delay it any longer. If time passes, if hidden dangers are left, it will be extremely difficult to improve his physical realm in the future.
Fortunately, his physical state was already in the late stage of integration, and he had a very strong recovery ability. After taking the elixir and carefully absorbing the refining effects, his injuries recovered quickly.
After a few days of rest, you will almost be able to recover.
The slight turmoil in the sea of consciousness also calmed down.
Compared with before, his cultivation level has only declined. If Suixin Sword Power can become more powerful, his strength will undoubtedly become stronger!
Two days later, Lin Mu managed to condense a very small Earth-grade Condensation Bead and began to temper the Warm-Nurture Suixin Sword.
Lin Mu used this earth-level concentration bead very carefully, trying not to waste it at all.
Fortunately, the power of Sui Xin Sword can be greatly reduced, and it is exactly when it needs to be replenished. Most of the essence of spiritual consciousness is absorbed by its refining, and very little is lost.
The essence of an earth-level concentration bead was exhausted, and Lin Mu felt a little powerless.
Even though he wanted to continue to work hard, it was hard for a clever woman to make a meal without straw.
Without the foundation of spiritual consciousness, there is nothing he can do.
Lin Mu deeply felt that even if there were tens of millions of cultivators in the misty fairyland, the essence of spiritual consciousness they could accumulate was still not enough.
Now it is difficult to restore the Sui Xin Sword alone to meet his wishes.
Not to mention, the Five Elements Phantom Mirror itself has not yet begun to recover, and there are still several psychic magic weapons waiting behind it.
In the final analysis, the Misty Fairyland is not invincible. It can only accumulate and store the fragments of spiritual consciousness consumed by cultivators. It cannot plunder or ingest by force.
There is a big gap between the fragments of spiritual consciousness consumed by cultivators and the spiritual consciousness of the cultivators themselves.
This is doomed, the development of Misty Fairyland can only rely on the number of cultivators.
Forcibly plundering the spiritual consciousness of cultivators, he might be able to achieve it after some study, but this was obviously against his will.
He has the ability to do it, but he doesn't do it.
This kind of behavior of killing the goose and taking the eggs really seems stupid.
If you want to take a long-term view, you can only start from the aspects of the number of practitioners and their cultivation level.
Most of the cultivators in the misty fairyland are now those in the Concentration Stage, those in the Return to Void Stage, and only a few in the Fusion Stage.
But if you want to condense the extremely pure Earth-grade Condensation Beads, the essence of spiritual consciousness of the cultivators in the integration stage will undoubtedly be purer and get twice the result with half the effort.
All this can only wait until the end of the mineral vein competition conference.
Now he sells the jade slips. In his current state, the cultivators are not optimistic about him, and the effect will not be much better. For the time being, he has no time to distract himself from doing this.
Making the Jade Slips required him to personally leave the mark of his spiritual consciousness, which also took a lot of time.
Far water cannot quench near thirst.
For a while, the power of the Sui Xin Sword was difficult to fully recover, and his combat power could not reach its peak state.
The next games, especially the first few games, will be extremely difficult.
Lin Mu only hoped that he would have better luck. When he met those cultivators who had not yet truly entered the late stage of integration, he should not encounter those who were too strong, otherwise they would be unable to fight.
It's just luck, who can say it well.
Three days of rest time passed in a blink of an eye. Lin Mu came out of the rotating moon space and went to the battle stage with Gu Zhenhao.
"I originally planned to let you gamble against others, and the spiritual stones you earn can be used to buy another mineral vein." Lin Mu said apologetically, "Now that my strength has seriously declined, I'm afraid it will be difficult to fulfill my wish."
"What are you talking about!" Gu Zhenhao said hurriedly, "If you can come back safely, there must be something that makes me happier than this. It's just a vein of minerals, and it will only last a hundred years sooner or later. You don't have to care too much."
"If I fail to become the top ten, the total number of mineral veins lost will be far more than one." Lin Mu still couldn't forget the mineral veins.
The misty fairyland is the key to his ability to quickly improve his strength and magic weapons.
If he wants to develop Misty Wonderland, he must rely on mineral veins.
Without a mine of its own, everything is difficult or even empty talk.
Before, he took the initiative to visit someone's house with a large amount of spiritual stones in hand, wanting to buy Blue Star Jade Slips, but others ignored him. This incident greatly stimulated him.
As long as you own the mineral veins, you can do whatever you want with no restrictions.
Arriving at the battle stage, Lin Mu found that the cultivators were even denser than last time.
Even if his cultivation level is declining now, there are still many cultivators who want to see how he will perform.
This is not entirely a good expectation.
If you can win, it will naturally make people stunned and amazed.
If we fail, there will definitely be many cultivators who will ridicule and add insult to injury.
Many people come, it can be said that they come with the purpose of watching the fun and laughing.
The peerless genius has never been defeated, who doesn't want to see what he will look like when he fails.
The elder in white soon announced the start of the competition.
The elder in white on the sixth battle platform shouted loudly: "Lin Mu, Jin Hao!"
As soon as the elder in white finished speaking, many cultivators laughed out loud.
There was a lot of commotion in the audience.
Some practitioners were even excited and whistled.
Gu Zhenhao shook his head helplessly.
"How strong is Jin Hao?" Lin Mu couldn't help but ask.
"His cultivation is in the late stage of integration, and his strength is no worse than Du Cheng." Gu Zhenhao sighed, "With Du Cheng's absence, you can be lucky enough to win against Du Cheng, but your luck will not always be there. In this match, I think you Go up there and go through the motions, experience it, and then take the initiative to admit defeat.”
Lin Mu frowned slightly, and his expression suddenly became serious.
In the later stage of integration, his strength is equal to that of Du Cheng!
In his heyday, he used two peerless spiritual treasures, several psychic magic weapons, and two Nascent Souls. Although he killed Du Cheng, he was in a state of disarray and suffered heavy injuries.
Now that his strength has declined, is there any hope of defeating Jin Hao?
But if he went up there and just went through the motions and then surrendered, Lin Mu felt a sting in his heart when he thought of this.
Taking the initiative to admit defeat is definitely not his style. Either fight or not fight.
You go up to fight, and you take the initiative to admit defeat. What does this mean?
Now that he is here, in front of thousands of cultivators, there is no way he can avoid fighting.
Then there is only one way to go.
Come on stage and have a fight!
There are only two or three practitioners who have not reached the late stage of integration. If he wants to become the top ten, he must defeat several late stage practitioners.
Just as Lin Mu was about to take the stage, a commotion suddenly came from far away from the crowd.
Several melodious and melodious sounds of cranes drifted in from afar.
Lin Mu looked up and saw four snow-white cranes flying towards him.
On each crane, there is a graceful woman sitting.
The eyes of many cultivators were attracted by the women on the four spiritual cranes.
Lin Mu looked from a distance and found that the four women all looked familiar.
The spirit crane flew over the crowd and flew towards the sixth battle platform, getting closer and closer.
Lin Mu looked intently, startled, and then his face filled with joy.
The four women on the crane turned out to be Xu Jiao, Hua Jin, Xing Qing, and Xing Yu.
Why are they here?
