Zhang Mu loosened his fingers, looked at Sun Bei and said with a smile: "What? Keep going!"
The corner of Sun Bei's mouth moved, knowing that he was definitely no match for Zhang Mu, so he had already thought of a way, that is, to run away!
But just when he was about to turn around, Zhang Mu had already expected that he was about to run and drew out his long sword. Sun Bei also became a dead soul under the sword.
Zhang Mu shook off the blood on his sword and sneered: "It's your own fault!"
Then, under everyone's astonished gaze, he came to Liu Li and took out a few middle-grade Qi Refining Pills.
Although Liu Li was shocked by Zhang Mu's strength, he still took the Qi Refining Pill with relief, handed it to Sun Xiao and Lin Han, one pill each, and started to recover after taking it.
Seeing Ba Dao looking at him like this, he couldn't help but shrugged and said: "Recover your injuries quickly, we are still waiting to harvest the spiritual grass. If you delay any longer, the time will be up."
Look at the sky now, it's already sunset.
As long as tonight is passed, this herb-picking competition can end successfully even if death is serious.
After a while of burning incense, the eight people were led by Zhang Mu again and walked towards the depths of the cave.
After seeing Zhang Mu's true strength, several powerful men, including Ba Dao, secretly lowered their status and did not dare to go offside again.
Although he was a little helpless about this, Zhang Mu didn't want to talk too much about this. After all, he had nothing to do with them at all. As long as Liu Li and the others were fine, it would be fine.
After walking through the dark passage, we came to a messy cave hall with numerous corpses inside, obviously all of them were monks who had died in previous years.
After entering, everyone took out things that could emit light.
Zhang Mu smiled slightly and walked straight towards a certain place without anyone else.
When everyone saw it, they didn't follow him. They all looked to the side. After all, no one would joke with their lives. Now that they know Zhang Mu's terrifying power, it's too late to hide. Who would look for trouble?
After walking over, Zhang Mu discovered a spiritual grass with three black leaves under the golden light. It looked like it was a hundred years old.
Liu Li and the other two people who were following closely saw him and couldn't help but laugh in a low voice: "What a harvest!"
Zhang Mu nodded and said, "We'll accept this."
"You're not going to hand it over?"
After listening to Liu Li's words, Zhang Mu also understood the meaning. You must know that when they came in, everyone did not have a spiritual grass with them. It would be fine if they did not hand over the low-level spiritual grass.
But this is a hundred-year-old spiritual grass. If the master uncle in the foundation-building stage knew about it, he would be very uncomfortable.
Just after Liu Li asked, Zhang Mu had already asked Xiao Yan if he could put the Pillar Spirit Grass into the Xu Mo Cauldron. If he could, would he still be afraid of them checking it?
In the end, I learned that there was no problem at all. The space in the Xuyu realm of the Xuyu tripod was a small mobile warehouse, which was comparable to the best Xuyu belt.
"Don't worry! I have my own way." After saying that, he picked the spiritual grass and quietly put it into the Xuhu Cauldron inside his body.
"Okay, let's see if there are any other spiritual herbs." After saying that, the four of them began to search all over the place.
After burning incense, the eight people walked out with joy.
This time, for the first time, we collected three fifty-year-old spiritual herbs, the most of which belonged to Zhang Mu and the four of them. Excluding the one that they planned to keep, we found dozens of fifty-year-old spiritual herbs.
Grass, it can be said to be an unexpected big harvest!
When I left the Forest of No Return, I encountered several wild beasts without eyes, but they were all picked up by the crowd.
After coming out, they saw less than thirty Qingfeng Valley disciples, all standing in front of the old man in the foundation building stage, waiting to hand over the spiritual grass.
After seeing the thirty people, the old man couldn't help but frown. Obviously he didn't expect the damage to be so great. In previous years, at most, there were more than a dozen people killed or injured. This time, his vitality was seriously damaged!
But after everyone took out the spiritual herbs one by one and handed them into the old man's hands, they were so happy that they didn't know where Bei was.
Although the casualties this time were the largest, they also collected the most spiritual herbs, so the one with one leader and one with the auxiliary was considered even.
In the end, Ba Dao handed over thirty ten-year-old spiritual herbs, more than twenty twenty-year-old spiritual herbs, a few thirty-year-old spiritual herbs, and six fifty-year-old spiritual herbs, which were enough to become the most among everyone.
When the old man saw it, he pinched his beard and smiled: "Yes, Ba Dao, it seems you really did not disappoint me."
But when he said this, everyone looked helpless, making the old man a little unpredictable.
But at this moment, Zhang Mu took hundreds of ten-year-old spiritual herbs, hundreds of twenty-year-old spiritual herbs, dozens of thirty-year-old spiritual herbs, and dozens of fifty-year-old spiritual herbs.
After coming out, the old man finally understood the reason.
But when he saw so many spiritual herbs, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Did you find all of this yourself?"
Zhang Mu said respectfully: "Back to Master, this is the work of the four of me."
"Oh?" The old man frowned slightly, obviously not believing that no matter how powerful the four of them were, they couldn't find so many spiritual herbs?
The reason is that he is most optimistic about Ba Dao, Wu Miao, and Mo Yu. As for Zhang Mu, he only regards him as a middle-class disciple. It is a bit incredible now, but it is normal.
Suddenly, a strong aura came out of the old man, which made Zhang Mu bend his legs fiercely. But before he could kneel down, he let out a low roar and slowly stood up straight.
Then, he looked at the old man with a fearless face, and sweat fell from his face.
"Uncle Master, what does this mean?"
Since his master was Li Xiu and he was taken care of by Sun Xing, the ancestor of Qingfeng Valley, he didn't pay much attention to this old man in the foundation building stage.
But even so, Zhang Mu did not reveal his identity. But this time the old man was a bit too deceptive. Could it be that he doubted himself so much because he had received so many spiritual herbs?
The old man couldn't help but be secretly surprised when he saw that Zhang Mu could resist his own consciousness.
"Hmph, did you attack and kill your fellow disciples, and then take the spiritual grass for your own use?" After saying this, it was like exerting a more powerful spiritual consciousness.
But before he could use it, Zhang Mu frowned and said, "Uncle, I, Zhang Mu, don't tell secrets. I got these things legitimately. If you don't believe me, you can ask the brothers present."
Just after he finished speaking, he then said numbly: "Disciple, Master Li Xiu!"
"ah..."
This voice did not come from the mouth of one person, but everyone present was frightened. I never expected that Zhang Mu would have such a backing. They all knew that Li Xiu’s identity in the foundation stage was not scary. What was scary was the master behind him, the Yuan Ying stage elder Sun.
prosper.
After hearing this sentence, the old man immediately regained his momentum and asked tentatively: "Li Xiu, are you Li Xiu, the disciple of Elder Ben Gu?"
Zhang Mu couldn't help but sneer in his heart when he saw it, but he still replied: "It's the master."
After hearing Zhang Mu's words, the old man immediately smiled and said: "It turns out that he is Li Xiu's disciple. It's all because of my fault, so don't mind my nephew."
I don't know that Zhang Mu alone raised his middle finger to the old man in his heart, but even the others felt helpless because of the old man's bullying and fear of the strong.
Zhang Mu also knew that it would be very irrational to offend a monk in the foundation-building stage just to give up.
"Uncle Master, this is serious. These are all rules and disciples know it."
Seeing how sensible Zhang Mu was, the old man nodded and said with a smile: "Nephew, come with me. I have something to tell you." After saying that, he walked aside.
Zhang Mu exhaled. He was suppressed by the old man's momentum just now. This was entirely due to his own strong system, plus the reason for practicing Qiankun Jue and Qingxin Jue.
If not, I'm afraid I would have been lying on the ground just now, and I don't know what crime I would be charged with.
"Lizi, wait for me here."
"Well, be careful. Call me if you need anything."
Zhang Mu smiled and said: "Don't worry, what do you think he dares to do to me?" After saying that, he chased after the old man.
In a secret place of Lin Yu, Zhang Mu stood in front of an old man with a smiling face. He was really different from before. I had to admire the old man's acting skills!
"Uncle Master, I wonder why you are called a disciple?"
The old man smiled and said: "You don't have to be like this, nephew. Your master and I are also good friends, so we don't need to be so polite in the future. But I, just now..."
Before the old man could finish speaking, Governor Zhang Mu said matter-of-factly: "Uncle, nothing happened just now? Didn't you just want to test your disciple's cultivation? This is all out of good intentions!"
The old man was delighted when he heard this and said shamelessly: "It's good that my nephew knows."
Zhang Mu cursed secretly: "How shameless are you?" But he still asked: "Uncle Master, why did you ask this disciple to come?"
The old man slapped his forehead and said: "By the way, I saw you brought out so many fifty-year-old spiritual herbs, it's enough to rank first."
Zhang Mu interrupted: "Uncle, this is not mine alone. It was obtained by the four of us together."
The old man didn't mind Zhang Mu and said with a smile: "No matter what, if the four of you are evenly divided, you and Ba Dao will also be among the top five."
"Thank you, uncle."
"You're welcome. I asked you to come this time because I want to make an exchange for you."
"exchange?"
Hearing what the old man said, Zhang Mu was really confused. You said that you are already a monk in the foundation-building stage. What can a monk in the Qi-refining stage do to you?
The old man seemed to have noticed Zhang Mu's doubts, and explained with a smile: "To be honest, I have a nephew, but because his cultivation level is low, I was afraid that something might happen to him in Bugui Forest, so I didn't let him participate.
"
"But he also needs a lot of spiritual herbs for cultivation, so I want to make an exchange with you."
Zhang Mu said: "Uncle, just say that what a disciple can do must be defined."
"No." The old man smiled and said, "I just want to buy all your fifty-year-old spiritual herbs. Of course, I will exchange them for things. Do you think you can do that?"
Zhang Mu was completely confused when he heard this. Do you mean that a monk in the foundation-building stage can't even afford a fifty-year-old spirit rub?
After the old man's next words, Zhang Mu finally understood his intention.
It turns out that it is a fifty-year-old spiritual grass. Each plant costs about two to three low-level spiritual stones. Even if he is a monk in the foundation building stage, he cannot afford to consume a large amount of it, so he wants to buy some for his nephew here.
.
In Zhang Mu's heart, the old man is a money-grubbing man who cannot achieve great things, and he may not be able to break through the foundation-building stage in the future.
