Under the Jianmu tree, new people came again. Yuan Duo was shocked when he saw the endless branches of the Jianmu tree in front of him.
"You...you are a heretic!" Yuan Duo said to Li Mu with trembling body.
"Shut up, you ignorant person!" Kunpeng shouted.
Qingyao's face also turned slightly cold, and she said in a cold voice: "Yuan Duo, you are tired of living, and you dare to speak rudely to the Palace Master!"
Yuan Duo looked at Qingyao and reacted instantly. No wonder Qingyao, a cultivator who had never been out of the Chaos Sea, could actually achieve enlightenment. He then shouted angrily, "Great! You two have already joined the heretics and evil demons. Heretics and evil demons are to be killed by everyone. I will fight you to the death!"
As he said that, he pounced towards Qingyao beside him, but all his magic power had been suppressed by Li Mu long ago, and Qingyao knocked him away with just a flick of her finger.
"The Palace Master is such a careless person, how can he allow an old thing like you to spread evil words to confuse the people!" Qingyao said coldly. She had never heard of such heresy and evil demon. After all, she was captured and taken to Black Wind City as soon as she came to the Chaos Sea.
Of course, even if she knew all this now, she would still stand firmly on Li Mu's side. After all, she had already attained enlightenment in Li Mu's Jianmu, and her thoughts had been firmly controlled by Jianmu.
Li Mu smiled faintly and said, "Yuan Duo, don't you want revenge? I'll give you a chance. Join Lingxiao Palace. This Palace Master will let you prove your Dao again. You may be able to take revenge with your own hands in the future."
Li Mu had already seen that Yuan Duo had once attained enlightenment, and his cultivation level should have been quite high. However, for some unknown reason, he took the initiative to cut off his own enlightenment.
"Don't even think about it! Old devil Li Mu, I am definitely not the kind of person who would do anything to achieve my goal. Today, even if I die, I will never surrender!" Yuan Duo looked determined.
"Li Mu, you dare not kill me! I am a miner from Black Wind City. If I can't go back, the news of my meeting with you will be heard by Black Wind as soon as possible. By then, do you think Black Wind will let you go? Haha, I can see that you are still in the early stage of heresy and are very afraid of Black Wind. Of course, you can also stay in your universe, but are you willing to give up what you want?" Yuan Duo sneered.
Li Mu shook his head slightly and sneered, "Yuan Duo, are you kidding me? Let's not talk about whether I really care about a mere Chaos Beast. Even if I kill you, you are a remnant of the previous city lord. Why do you think Black Wind will make decisions for you? You have to understand that it was you who lured me to the ninth block and wanted to use that heroic spirit against me. I accidentally killed you, and then followed the clues of that Black Wind Guard and the miner named Lin Xiangdong to catch all the remnants of your subordinates. Do you think Black Wind will thank me or hold on to me?"
"You...you despicable and shameless person!" Yuan Duo roared, trying hard to break free from the restraints on himself.
"Yuan Duo, you have to think clearly. When a person dies, everything is gone. I once cut off my own roots of Taoism, probably so that I could lie dormant beside Heifeng and look for an opportunity to take revenge, right? Are you willing to die like this now? But I don't understand. Your current cultivation level is not even at the level of the Void Immortal Ancestor. Where do you get the courage to take revenge?" Li Mu said jokingly.
"You..." Yuan Duo was angry, but he found himself speechless.
Li Mu continued, "I don't know why you fell into the Chaos Sea, but a person who was abandoned by the Qiongzu Universe is now showing such a righteous look. Isn't it ridiculous? Wake up, you have cut off your own roots. In that Chaos Sea, there is absolutely no possibility for you to turn over!"
"Old man, join our Lingxiao Palace and start a business with us! In the beginning, I was as stubborn as you and believed the nonsense of those so-called big shots in the Qiongzu Universe. But after following the Palace Master, I realized the meaning of my life!" Kunpeng coaxed.
"This..." Yuan Duo's eyes were confused.
Seeing that Yuan Duo's faith in the Dao had wavered, Li Mu suddenly shouted, "Humph! Yuan Duo, I am not discussing this with you. Today, you only have two choices. Either you go and prove your Dao obediently, and I will give you a place in the first-level branch to prove your Dao. In the future, you will have the hope of cultivating to the level of the Hongmeng Immortal Ancestor, or you will become the nourishment under the roots of the Jianmu tree!"
As he spoke, a vast energy swept Yuan Duo up. Yuan Duo could feel that he could be torn to pieces by this energy at any time.
At this critical moment, Yuan Duo thought a lot and said in his heart: "Old Demon Li Mu is right. With my current cultivation, I am not even a match for Old Man Heifeng. Even if I rely on strategies, I am not sure of revenge! In order to avenge the general, I will compromise and pretend to surrender to this old demon Li Mu. In the future, I can secretly help the people of the Qiongzu Universe. After these heretics and evil demons are wiped out, I will definitely have made a great contribution. At that time, those big guys may even grant me the qualification to prove my Dao again!"
Thinking of this, Yuan Duo immediately shouted: "I promise, I promise to prove the truth here!"
Li Mu didn't know what Yuan Duo was thinking, nor did he care. Seeing Yuan Duo agree, Li Mu said coldly: "It's too late!"
Yuan Duo's heart suddenly jumped when he heard this. Wasn't it said so? Why did it happen like this? Then a shadow of death loomed in his heart. His body trembled uncontrollably. He smiled bitterly and closed his somewhat unwilling eyes.
Seeing Yuan Duo's performance, Li Mu was very satisfied. The corners of his mouth slightly curved up, and he smiled faintly: "You agreed too late, and failed this hall master's hope for you. Forget about proving the first branch. Now, you can only prove the second branch. Go ahead."
"What...what?" Yuan Duo was dumbfounded. He thought he could only become Jianmu's nourishment. Who knew Li Mu would say that!
Just when Yuan Duo was confused, he suddenly felt his body relax, and the force that bound him disappeared.
"Relax your body and don't resist." Li Mu said lightly.
Then, a secondary branch above Jianmu emitted a burst of light and shot towards Yuan Duo.
…………
In just half an hour, Yuan Duo completed his Dao, and what delighted Li Mu was that after this old man had achieved Dao, he actually directly advanced to the peak of the Void Immortal Ancestor. This was when he achieved Dao with the second-level branch, and he achieved Dao with the strength of the Creator Immortal Ancestor! You should know that when Kunpeng was in the middle stage of the Void Immortal Ancestor, he was forcibly cut off by Li Mu and achieved Dao with the first-level branch, which only raised his strength to the peak of the Void Immortal Ancestor. And this Yuan Duo was also at the peak of the Void Immortal Ancestor. There is only one reason for this, that is, Yuan Duo's cultivation was above the late stage of the Void Immortal Ancestor before he cut off his Dao root!
