Neither of them said a word during lunch. Li Mu was still a little uncomfortable with having such a grown-up son. But after all, blood is thicker than water, so Li Mu felt particularly at ease while eating this lunch.
There was a whole table of delicious food, and the father and son ate from noon until late in the afternoon, until they had eaten every last piece of vegetable and drank every last drop of wine.
After having a good meal and a good drink, Li Yunjin took a sip of the fairy tea. After pondering for a moment, he said to Li Mu, "Father, I will leave now. The Sunset Legion has been making some moves recently, and I have to go back to Tianqi to take charge of the overall situation."
Li Mu nodded and said, "Be careful, and put your own safety first."
Li Yunjin turned around and smiled, "Father, you too, just do your best on this trip to the center of the earth."
After saying that, he took off into the air and flew directly towards Changping City in the northeast.
The moment Li Yunjin ascended into the air, Xu Quanhui, who was waiting outside the Lingxiao Palace, also ran in. He looked in the direction where Li Yunjin left and asked Li Mu, "Emperor..."
Li Mu naturally knew what he wanted to say, so he waved his hand and said, "No need."
After a pause, Li Mu continued, "Pass on my order to mobilize 5,000 immortal soldiers to Changping City and wait for Li Yunjin's dispatch."
Hearing what Li Mu said, Xu Quanhui opened his mouth slightly, and understood it in an instant, and quickly accepted the order: "Yes, sir, we will do our best to assist the Holy Son of Yunjin!"
Next, Li Mu arranged the affairs in Miancheng and prepared some tools needed for the Heart of the Earth. After a night's rest, he took Miao Xiaobai to Mount Everest the next day.
Since the first wave of super-powered mother essence will descend on Mount Everest, there must be a passage connecting Mount Everest to the center of the earth, and the super-powered mother essence is just nearby, so it is naturally best to enter the center of the earth from Mount Everest.
"Brother, I told you that we can't ride in a flying car? The wind is making my head hurt!" Miao Xiaobai couldn't help but complain.
At this time, Miao Xiaobai transformed into a majestic and huge white tiger, flying in the sky at an extremely fast speed, and Li Mu sat on its back.
"Stop talking nonsense and speed up." Li Mu said lightly.
Miao Xiaobai had followed Li Mu for such a long time and had a general understanding of Li Mu's character. He knew that Li Mu must have his reasons for doing this, so he stopped complaining and said loudly, "Then sit tight, big brother!"
After Miao Xiaobai said this, his entire body disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye like a stream of light.
Li Mu was very satisfied with Miao Xiaobai's speed, and couldn't help but sigh at his original vision. It turned out that Miao Xiaobai actually contained the blood of the mythical beast White Tiger in his body. When he advanced to Super Power Level 9, the White Tiger blood in his body awakened, and his own strength increased by several levels, especially in terms of speed. I'm afraid that no super power of the same level can compare to Miao Xiaobai.
"Big...taxi driver, are you going...fast enough?" Facing the biting cold wind, Miao Xiaobai had a hard time speaking.
"Not enough." Although Li Mu was already quite satisfied with Miao Xiaobai's speed, since it asked this, Li Mu could only answer like this. It could also be regarded as developing Miao Xiaobai's potential.
"Not enough?" Miao Xiaobai felt a little depressed and had to try his best to speed up again.
"Bang~" a loud sound was heard.
"Enough...is that enough?" Miao Xiaobai asked again. At this time, its voice was already erratic. If it weren't for the use of special methods, the voice would not have been able to reach Li Mu's ears.
"Not enough." Li Mu still said indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Miao Xiaobai gritted his teeth and sprinted again.
Then Miao Xiaobai's mouth moved, but it was unclear what it was saying.
"Haha, that's all." Li Mu also saw that Miao Xiaobai had tried his best at this time, so he didn't make things difficult for it anymore.
Mount Everest is only about 1,600 kilometers away from Miancheng. At Miao Xiaobai's current speed, Li Mu reached Mount Everest in less than two hours. This was because the altitude increased and Miao Xiaobai slowed down. If he had continued at his previous speed, which was several times the speed of sound, the time would have been shortened by more than half.
Soon, Li Mu found the entrance to the center of the earth, but he did not go down immediately. Instead, he took out the projection of the heart of the universe and said to him with a smile: "Haha, fellow Taoist, we have been together for three years..."
“Stop, Fellow Daoist Li Mu, although I have a good impression of you, I am just a projection and cannot make the decisions for my real body. I can’t make any promises to you on this matter, and you shouldn’t hold too much hope. You will be lucky if my real body doesn’t strangle you to death the first time you go in.” The projection of the Heart of the Universe said bluntly.
Li Mu smiled bitterly and said nothing more. He put the projection of the Heart of the Universe into the Qiankun Ring, then looked at Miao Xiaobai and said, "Are you waiting for me here or are you coming down with me?"
Miao Xiaobai looked at the entrance to the center of the earth with a frown on his face. After a long silence, his brows relaxed and he said with a firm face, "I want to go down!"
Super-powered mother essence is a great tonic for super-powered people. Miao Xiaobai has already felt this irresistible energy at the entrance to the center of the earth. As an ambitious cat, oh, no, an ambitious white tiger, Miao Xiaobai will naturally not give up such an opportunity.
"Yeah." Li Mu was somewhat relieved about Miao Xiaobai's decision. After all, he couldn't always help Miao Xiaobai advance. A truly strong person still needed to be tempered and knew how to let go and seize opportunities.
Then, Li Mu cleared some snow and rocks at the entrance to the center of the earth, and then jumped down. Miao Xiaobai also turned into its original kitten form and lay tightly on Li Mu's shoulder.
The man and the cat descended quickly, faster and faster. The scenes on the cave wall flashed before their eyes. It was unknown how long it had passed before the surroundings suddenly became clear. There was a lake directly below Li Mu. However, due to the low temperature of the earth, the lake had already frozen. Li Mu exerted force suddenly, kicked his legs, and used the Tiyunzong method to slow down his descent. Then he landed steadily on the ice.
"This... is this underground? Brother, have we come to the right place?" After seeing the surrounding scene clearly, Miao Xiaobai was so shocked that he couldn't close his mouth.
"It's indeed a bit unexpected." Li Mu was also a little surprised.
After living for tens of thousands of years, this is the first time Li Mu has seen a world like the one at the center of the Earth.
I saw that in this huge world under the earth's core, the entire space was in the shape of a sphere, and everything in this world was on the inner wall of the sphere. In the middle of the sphere was a huge ball of fire, just like the sun seen on the ground, but now the flame had long been dim and looked like it would go out at any time.
