The conflict between Li Mu and the Thunder God Sect has become a blood feud. Currently, more than 20 sects, with over 100 people, are involved in the siege of Li Mu.

Led by Lei Yunzong, the group included Shizhong Temple, Menghu Hall, Wanyao Hall, and some independent cultivators.

The sect's disciples wore various colored Taoist robes, while the independent cultivators wore different attire. These people were positioned in the four directions—east, west, south, and north—to ambush Li Mu.

Huo Huanyu and Wu Dahuan stayed at Juxianlou, waiting for Li Mu to leave Wudao Mountain.

In order to deliver a fatal blow to Li Mu and leave no future trouble, most of the sect's disciples were specially transferred, including the vice sect leader Lin Sen.

Lin Sen was a strong contender for the position of sect leader of the Thunder God Sect, and his strength was comparable to Huo Huanyu's, except that he broke through to the Heavenly Realm a step later than Huo Huanyu.

At dawn, Li Mu walked out of Juxianlou with his bag on his back, neither sad nor happy, strolling leisurely.

Once you walk through the martial arts street and out of the mountain gate, you enter the world of martial arts.

Everyone watching this matter stared wide-eyed, each with their own ulterior motives.

Ao Chong and Ou Xiaoqian had seen Li Mu many times before, but they had never gone to seek medical help.

The reason for this is that Li Mu offended Huo Huanyu and made many enemies at the opening of the martial arts tournament.

Just as Uncle Mu Li said, Li Mu had a bad temper and offended the Thunder God Sect as soon as he showed his face, making him hesitate to approach.

Jingxin and Jingru from Cihangzhai both looked rather unwell.

Their aunt Huiming's involvement in the attack made them feel embarrassed and sad.

Lu Xiaoyi was deeply conflicted, still harboring resentment towards Li Mu for tricking him out of the Fantasy Stone.

However, his cultivation level increased greatly due to the Breakthrough Pill, and he felt grateful to Li Mu.

Luo Yin Gu Jie Wen was no exception. He had felt inferior for many years because of his disfigurement, but regained his confidence because of a beauty pill.

Although the pill was bought with money, it still couldn't diminish her gratitude towards Li Mu.

Many people came to watch the spectacle, while others came to take sides, kick someone when they're down, or try to profit from the situation.

.

Once outside the mountain gate, colorful tents lined the road, and the people outside the tents had various expressions, with some casting friendly glances.

Li Mu's divine sense covered a range of three thousand meters around him, and he keenly sensed enemies coming from four directions.

Behind him, the moment Li Mu stepped out of the mountain gate, Huo Huanyu and the main force of the First Column began to assemble.

With a powerful enemy blocking his way in front and a large force pursuing him from behind, he was now caught in a pincer movement.

Since a massacre is unavoidable, let's turn the world upside down with it.

It doesn't matter which direction you descend the mountain; just follow your heart and walk straight ahead.

Five miles ahead, a group of people had formed a fan shape, their purpose being to prevent Li Mu from escaping.

Li Mu collected a total of over a hundred spirit stones at this martial arts tournament, which is neither a lot nor a little.

If he were to use it for cultivation, it could improve his cultivation level, but he didn't intend to use it that way.

He held eleven spirit stones in his palm, intending to set up a Bagua maze array in the shortest possible time.

It's not entirely a formation, as the lack of cultivation and materials for setting it up means it's more of a smokescreen.

.

As he approached the group blocking his way, he darted into the woods beside the road and sped away.

After rushing four or five hundred meters through the mountains and forests, Li Mu stopped and casually scattered eight spirit stones within a ten-zhang radius around him.

The distribution of the spirit stones appears random, but it is actually arranged according to the eight directions: Qian, Dui, Li, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Gen, and Kun.

Li Mu placed the three spirit stones at the center of the formation, and nine streams of spiritual energy shot out from Li Mu's body to various directions and the center of the formation.

Then, he placed his fingers in the magic field, silently recited the array incantation, and raised both hands upwards with his palms flat.

"Activate the formation!"

Instantly, the Bagua formation was activated, and the eight directions began to resonate with each other, with the faint energy from all eight directions connecting with the center of the formation.

Then, a surge of spiritual energy appeared at the center of the array, which instantly vanished, and the illusion array was complete.

Li set up the formation and waited for people to fall into the trap.

Before long, more than twenty martial artists who had been blocking Li Mu's escape arrived and surrounded him in a radius of five zhang.

No one spoke; they all stared at Li Mu as if he were prey, and some even felt a pang of pity.

Seeing that everyone had entered the formation, Li Mu did not hesitate to pour a large amount of spiritual energy into the center of the formation once again.

In an instant, sand and stones flew and mist rose within the illusionary maze.

The wooden tooth had already been taken out by Li Mu and infused with spiritual power.

"go!"

With a soft shout, Muya moved like a night owl, instantly creating two clouds of blood mist.

The two Xuanjing martial artists who were blocking the way were still feeling scared because of the sudden change in the illusion array when a sword strike as fast as lightning took their heads off.

The two martial artists died without even having time to scream.

Although Muya is not a flying sword, it does not prevent Li Mu from using it to fight enemies.

Given enough time, if the formation can be maintained, those trapped inside will have no chance of survival.

.

All the martial artists who tried to stop them heard the "whoosh! whoosh!" sounds of air being torn apart from within the Bagua Formation.

"Ah! Someone's attacking..."

It wasn't until Muya harvested heads, creating another cloud of blood mist, that the screams were heard.

Within the Bagua Formation, illusions abounded, and figures flickered, making it impossible to discern one another, except for Li Mu, who held the power of life and death in his hands.

Wooden teeth are like the scythe of death, ruthlessly reaping lives.

The sound of "whoosh! whoosh!" was rampant.

Screams erupted from all sides.

In just a few breaths, Mu Ya had killed seven or eight Xuan Realm warriors and wounded three Di Realm warriors.

The Earth Realm martial artists who came to freeload were already on guard when they sensed the change.

If it were only targeting two Earth Realm warriors, Li Mu could easily kill them with his Wood Fang. However, with such large-scale casualties, there would always be omissions.

Li Mu held a few mortise nails in his hand, echoing the wooden teeth, to check for any omissions or deficiencies.

Amidst the 'whoosh' sound, there were occasional 'plop' sounds.

So what if he's a martial artist at the Earth Realm? If Mu Ya can't kill him, the Death Nail will pierce his forehead in the next moment.

Those martial artists who surrounded and killed Li Mu certainly didn't expect that they would become the ones who were killed instead.

If they knew how powerful Li Mu was, they definitely wouldn't have come here to take advantage of him.

However, they no longer had the chance to regret it; those who kill will be killed in return.

Just one minute later, apart from Li Mu, there was no one else standing in the Bagua Formation.

Looking at the dismembered limbs and corpses scattered on the ground, Li Muxin remained as hard as stone.

After putting away the three spirit stones in the center of the formation and recalling Muya, Li Mu turned and left.

.

After Li Mu left, he stopped in a small valley.

"Pfft!" Li Mu spat out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly turned pale, his vision went black, and his blood and qi churned within him.

It turned out that Li Mu had already felt his spiritual energy was running out when he was controlling Muya to kill in the Bagua Formation.

Li Muqiang took a deep breath, steadied himself, and took out a True Spirit Pill from his ring and swallowed it.

After a while, Li Mu's condition improved slightly, but he knew that his situation was not optimistic.

He must find a place to recover his strength as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.

Li Mu looked around and found a cave in the valley. He decided to go in and rest for a while.

Upon entering the cave, one finds some dry grass and stones, suggesting that it has been inhabited.

He found a corner in the cave, sat down, and began to regulate his breathing.

An hour later, Li Mu's strength had basically recovered, but he still felt somewhat weak.

He decided to rest in the cave a little longer before preparing for the second round of fighting.

Just as Li Mu was about to rest, he suddenly heard a slight noise outside.
