Chapter 607 Want to Default on Your Debt?
No wonder this human-faced eagle chose this place as its nest. The presence of this piece of Yanyang Divine Jade was very helpful to its cultivation. Unfortunately, now that the human-faced eagle died, the Yanyang Divine Jade took advantage of Li Mu.
Li Mu immediately dug out a huge rock from the Qinghu Lake to seal the entrance to the eagle's nest, then sat cross-legged in the eagle's nest and began to practice cross-legged.
This practice is to stabilize the state and neutralize the cold in the body. As soon as Li Mu started practicing, a trace of the power of the flaming sun appeared from the ground, gradually integrated into Li Mu's Qi Jin'er, and was finally carried by Qi Jin'er into Li Mu's Dantian. , the energy in Li Mu's Dantian was ice-cold. This was the effect of practicing the Sky Frost Fist to burn the Ice God's bloodline.
As the power of the flaming sun accumulated more and more, the Qi in Li Mu's Dantian began to become more and more active. The Qi in Li Mu's Dantian condensed into a strong wind, whistling and slamming against the Dantian barrier, gradually causing the Dantian barrier to collapse. Cracks began to appear on the barrier, which was a sign of breaking through. Once the breakthrough was successful, Li Mu would immediately be able to rush into the mythical realm of the world.
As time passed day by day, the power of the flaming sun rising from under Li Mu began to gradually decrease. Finally, a week later, the flaming sun jade under Li Mu silently shattered into powder, and Li Mu also opened his eyes at the same time.
"It still doesn't work. We're just on the last step. I guess we still have to break through the Earthly Evil Yang Vein. Then we can directly break through the Earthly Evil Yang Vein and condense the golden body!"
Li Mu opened his eyes and slowly exhaled a breath, muttering to himself, but even though he didn't succeed in breaking through, he had no regrets.
After all, the power contained in this piece of Yanyang Divine Jade is rare, and the quality is ordinary. If it breaks through the high-grade Earthly Evil Yang Vein, it may be able to directly break through the realm and condense the golden body, which would be a great benefit.
"Now that the yin and yang in my body have been relatively harmonized, the time is ripe to attack the thirteenth level of the Vajra Indestructible Body. I might as well just cultivate the Vajra Indestructible Body to the thirteenth level, and then go back and hand in the mission!"
Li Mu did what he thought of. He took out the golden cicada's slough from the storage bag. Then with a shudder of energy, the golden cicada's slough instantly turned into powder. Then he sucked it hard and directly turned the golden cicada's slough into powder. The cicada's slough was inhaled into his mouth.
As soon as the golden cicada was ingested, a pure Buddha power immediately rose from Li Mu's belly, and Li Mu immediately began to operate the Vajra Indestructible Body.
The Vajra Indestructible Body rotates rapidly, quickly absorbing the power of the golden cicada's slough, and begins to move towards a higher realm. Li Mu has stayed in the realm of the 13th level of the Vajra Indestructible Body for a long time, and has obtained the power of the golden cicada's slough. In addition, his Vajra Indestructible Body quickly entered the realm of Xiaocheng.
Just three days later, the thirteenth level of Li Mu's Vajra Indestructible Body was stabilized in the realm of Xiaocheng. After Li Mu activates the Vajra Shadow, not only will the Vajra Shadow become more solid, but also the defensive ability will be stronger. It has also been greatly improved, and Li Mu's defense will be improved in all aspects.
Now Li Mu's defense has not only been improved, but also the recovery speed of injuries. Minor injuries can basically be recovered in seconds, and moderate injuries can be recovered in a few minutes at most. Even if it is a serious injury, Li Mu can recover with all his strength. soon.
And this is still the case without healing elixirs. Once high-quality healing elixirs are available, the regeneration of severed limbs will be faster.
"Although the combat power has not improved significantly after ten days of training this time, the defensive ability has improved a lot. It is a big gain. Go back and hand in the mission first!"
Ten days later, Li Mu smashed the boulder at the entrance of the Eagle's Nest with one punch, then stepped out and rushed directly to the jade lotus planting base.
At the same time, in the water jade lotus planting base, the water jade lotus ushered in a bumper harvest. Huge lotus pods were harvested, and then the lotus seeds were quickly peeled out. These lotus seeds were carefully counted, their grades were recorded, and the harvest was You must give away as many lotus seeds as there are lotus seeds, and you cannot miss one. Missing one is a huge loss.
The plantation was busy. The lotus seeds were counted, registered and sent away, but the lotus pods were left to dry. After drying, they would be ground into powder. This powder can strengthen muscles and bones and treat many diseases. Many workers in the plantation I just hope that I can make some extra money. Otherwise, the plantation is right on the edge of Qinghu Lake, so far away from Qinghu Fortress and the other four cities. How could there be so many workers willing to come here? It would be safer to find a job in the four cities and one fort.
Many workers in the plantation were busy talking about what happened a few days ago. They originally thought that Li Mu had injured the human-faced eagle and would be back to hand in the task soon. However, they did not expect that Li Mu had not come back for several days after being gone. Hand in the task.
"The man who came to kill the hawk is probably dead, right? He hasn't shown up for ten days!" A worker carefully peeled out the lotus seeds the size of marbles and registered them while peeling them off.
"That hawk demon is so powerful, I might have killed him. That Li Mu is quite young, what a pity!" Another worker put the lotus seeds under his nose and sniffed, and suddenly felt relaxed and happy, but there was someone holding a notebook in front of him. The person is watching, and there is a camera above his head filming 24 hours a day. As long as he dares to steal a lotus seed, his family will receive a pension in a few days.
At most, this person just smelled it, and then reluctantly put the lotus seeds down. After watching him put the lotus seeds down, the person in charge of counting looked away and started to look at other people warily.
"I heard that Zhang Laoliu is going to apply to Jiulong Mountain to withdraw the mission. Anyway, the lotus seeds have been harvested almost now, and there are no harpies to continue to harass. Withdrawing the mission can save a lot of money. Anyway, that Li Mu is dead, and he can’t claim his merits!”
"Zhang Laoliu is really heartless. Even if Li Mu didn't kill the human-faced eagle, he must have injured the human-faced eagle. Otherwise, how could the human-faced eagle not come over in the past few days? He is just crossing the river and burning the bridge!"
Someone around him said angrily.
Zhang Laoliu is the person in charge of this plantation. This year's water jade lotus harvest has been bumper. Without the harassment of the human-faced eagle, the loss of water jade lotus has been reduced to a minimum. And now no one has come back to take over the task. He can apply to Jiulong Mountain. Withdrawing the mission, in this way, apart from part of the mission deposit, he would be able to save the rest of the money.
The money saved was enough for him to buy a house in Liberty City.
"Should I go to Liberty City to buy a house or go to Qinghu Fortress to look at a house? Or should I just use all the money I have saved in the past few years and buy a house in the inner city of the mountain city. I will work for a few more years and then return to the mountain city to retire. Forget it, although you can make money here, who knows what day you will die!"
Zhang Laoliu secretly made a bargain in his heart.
For those of them who are trying to make a living in four cities and one fortress, the first choice is to move to Liberty City. Liberty City is relatively safe, but this safety is like a rootless floating duck. It is very safe today, and monsters cannot and dare not kill people. But It won't be certain tomorrow. Once the Qinghu Water Demon or the Qinghu Fortress decides to overturn the situation, the first people to die will be the people from Liberty City.
Their second option was to move to Qinghu Fortress. Qinghu Fortress was heavily guarded and it was a city that truly belonged to the human race. As long as Qinghu Fortress was not breached, they would be relatively safe.
The third option is to go back to the mountain city, but the mountain city is indeed safer and difficult to be broken by the demon clan, but the housing prices in the relatively safe areas of the mountain city are extremely high.
Liberty City, Qinghu Fortress, Mountain City, the safer the place, the higher the housing prices. In the relatively safe area in the mountain city, there are even aborigines who rely on a house to have food and drink, and beautiful women often throw themselves into their arms. All he wants is a place to stay.
In Liberty City, people are selling and buying houses all the time, and the volume of real estate transactions is astonishing. Except for people from big commercial banks, who would be willing to work hard in these four cities and one fortress if they could go back to the mountain city and live a worry-free life.
Zhang Laoliu was planning his future beautifully when the alarm in the plantation suddenly sounded, and then a figure fell from the sky and landed directly in front of Zhang Laoliu.
"Who?" Zhang Laoliu's face changed with fright, and he sat down on the ground and screamed in horror.
"This is the demon elixir of the human-faced eagle. The human-faced eagle has been killed. The mission is completed. Please provide a proof of mission completion!" Li Mu did not pay attention to Zhang Laoliu's expression and directly threw the fist-sized black demon elixir over and said.
"Ah?" Zhang Laoliu subconsciously grabbed the demon pill. The abundant demon power in the demon pill frightened him. People can cheat, but the demon pill cannot cheat.
This demon pill is full of demon energy and has amazing demon power. In addition, the human-faced eagle has not appeared for several days. As long as the human-faced eagle does not affect the harvest of water jade lotus, then the mission is completed.
I thought I could save a lot of money, but I didn't expect that the money would have to be taken out in the end. Zhang Laoliu suddenly showed a pained expression on his face.
"This is just a demon pill, you don't have it...!"
Zhang Laoliu was about to find a reason to refuse, when he saw Li Mu reach out and grab it. His energy gathered in the air, and he directly grabbed hundreds of fine lotus seeds in his hand, and stuffed them into the storage bag in a blink of an eye.
"In addition, that human-faced eagle is a low-level emperor-level demon. Your information is wrong and there are too few merit points. These lotus seeds should be considered as compensation for me. Do you have any objections?"
Li Mu looked at Zhang Laoliu calmly and asked.
Zhang Laoliu suddenly froze before he finished speaking. He suddenly remembered that the plantation could not even deal with a human-faced eagle, let alone someone who could kill a human-faced eagle. It could kill a low-level emperor-level monster. Is he someone he can offend?
Besides, if there is an intelligence error, compensation must be made. This is also the practice of Jiulong Mountain. He will not accept it even if he refuses to accept it.
"Don't dare, don't dare, I have no objection, I have no objection!"
Zhang Laoliu wiped the cold sweat on his head and said quickly with a smile on his face.
Then he quickly wrote a certificate, stamped it with the seal of the Water Jade Lotus Plantation, proving that the task had indeed been solved, and presented the certificate with both hands with a smile on his face.
Li Mu got the certificate and turned around to leave. Zhang Laoliu's distressed heart was twitching. Li Mu took away hundreds of lotus seeds from the water jade lotus. Zhang Laoliu must make up for this debt. Hundreds of lotus seeds are the essence of Liberty City. The big house was gone, and he lost money on this deal.
