429: Chaos Orb

Li Mu felt the surging immortal power within his body, his heart filled with wild joy.

His day-and-night cultivation finally paid off, and he successfully achieved a Breakthrough to the Golden Immortal Middle Stage.

At this moment, the System's notification sound suddenly rang in his mind, and he opened the System in confusion.

Discovering that it was actually Xin Mulan who had gotten into trouble, Li Mu clicked on Xin Mulan's interface image.

Seeing Xin Mulan and three others accidentally sucked into a black hole, Li Mu raised his eyebrows in surprise.

"What is this black hole?"

"Could it be a passage?"

Li Mu was a bit uncertain and dared not act rashly.

He decided to immediately ask the System to help check what exactly was going on.

Not long after, the System provided the answer.

It turned out that the black vortex before him was formed by a black hole between two worlds.

Before the passage formed, it would generate an extremely powerful attractive force. This explained why they hadn't noticed such a strong suction force before the passage formed.

Because everyone had focused their attention on the appearance of the passage itself, ignoring this key detail.

Only that silly Xin Mulan was lucky enough to win the jackpot.

Immediately after, he saw the scene of Xin Mulan and the others trapped inside the black hole, as well as Xin Mulan beating up one of the other three.

He didn't expect that this silly little girl would have a day where she would get angry and rage; it was quite frightening.

Time passed minute by minute, and Xin Mulan and the others remained trapped in that mysterious place, with no clue how to proceed.

At this moment, Li Mu also realized that if he did not take action himself, he might not be able to solve this problem.

Therefore, he decided to head to that black hole to help Xin Mulan and the others find a way out.

However, just as he made his decision, he suddenly noticed something blurry flash across the screen.

Because it was moving too fast, he could not see clearly what it was.

However, since he had already decided to go there, he might as well take a look at what it was.

Perhaps this would be a key clue that could help them find a way out faster.

...

After being beaten up by Xin Mulan, Guang Fa immediately became honest; he was obedient without a word.

Sun Zi and Zhang Xi dared not provoke Xin Mulan, thinking that since she was so angry right now, if they said something she didn't like, they might also receive a beating.

Xin Mulan paced back and forth irritably, having no idea how to find a way out.

Just then, a crack suddenly appeared in the sky, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

The few looked at the crack in the sky in surprise, completely unaware of what had happened.

Xin Mulan frowned, feeling that this scene seemed familiar.

Sun Zi and the other two had only just awakened their talents during this period; although they didn't know what they were, they sensed a powerful aura.

Amidst the lightning and thunder, a face slowly appeared, and he said with a smile, "Yo, you guys are here too!"

Xin Mulan: "Li Mu??!!!"

Sun Zi and the others: ????

Li Mu? Who? Is he a very impressive figure? Why haven't we seen him before?!

Although they hadn't seen him before, the aura that Li Mu inadvertently emitted still made them tremble with fear.

They sensibly bowed in the direction of Li Mu immediately, and the three of them lowered their heads respectfully, saying, "We, Sun Zi, Zhang Xi, and Guang Fa, greet you, Senior..."

Li Mu stood smiling before them, nodded, and then looked at Xin Mulan, pretending not to know their current situation, and asked, "What are you doing?"

Xin Mulan was overjoyed to see Li Mu; since Li Mu was so powerful, he must have a way to take them out.

She looked at Li Mu happily, "We were sucked in by a black hole, and we are still looking for a way out. Did you come looking for us?"

Li Mu: "I came here to find something, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Xin Mulan: "Haha~ What a coincidence, what are you looking for? Do you need help?"

Whether she helped or not was secondary; the main thing was that following him gave her a sense of security!

How could Li Mu not know Xin Mulan's little thoughts? He smiled and nodded, "Alright, then let's go out together in a while!"

Xin Mulan said excitedly, "Alright, alright!"

As soon as Sun Zi and the others heard they could leave, their faces immediately revealed wild joy, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but curve upwards.

Sun Zi quickly said, "Senior, there is no Spiritual Qi here, and this place is very strange. If you need any help, Senior, you can ask us at any time."

Li Mu raised his eyebrows, glanced at the three of them, and silently evaluated their strength in his heart.

Two of them were at the Refining Qi Transformation Early Stage, while the other had already reached the Refining Essence and Transforming Qi - Late Stage, but they were all cultivating Body Refining techniques.

However, Li Mu noticed that their Heart-Nature was relatively restless, so he shook his head slightly and refused, "No need, I can handle this matter myself."

"In that case, if you have anything, Senior, just say so."

"Hmm, if you have things to do and need to leave first, I can also send you away first."

Upon hearing this, Guang Fa immediately said excitedly, "Is that possible?"

Li Mu nodded, "Naturally, if you want to leave now, I will send you out right now."

Guang Fa nodded quickly; he couldn't stay in this damn place for even one more second.

Li Mu looked at Xin Mulan, Zhang Xi, and Sun Zi again, "What about you?"

Xin Mulan waved her hand, "I'm not in a hurry, send them out first!"

Sun Zi and Zhang Xi looked at each other, and finally, because of their fear of this place, they nodded, "Then we will trouble you to send us out first, Senior. It just so happens we can also hand over the gathered Spiritual Qi plants to the Grand Elder."

Upon hearing this, Xin Mulan waved her hand, "Alright, go ahead, go!"

Seeing that they had decided, Li Mu casually and gently tore open a spatial rift, and a strong wind blew in.

"Go out, the other side of the rift is the capital."

Seeing this, Sun Zi and the others immediately bowed and nodded in thanks, "Thank you, Senior, then we will take our leave first."

As the three of them left, Li Mu closed the spatial rift, the strong wind stopped, and only a deathly silence remained.

If Li Mu hadn't been by her side, Xin Mulan might have been terrified by the atmosphere before her.

Li Mu: "Let's go!"

Xin Mulan looked at Li Mu's receding back, then looked at the darkness behind her, shuddered, and immediately followed Li Mu's footsteps.

Li Mu walked while following the direction indicated by the System, searching for the thing he had seen earlier.

As Li Mu went deeper, it became quieter and quieter, the light grew dimmer, and the atmosphere became increasingly eerie.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew, making Xin Mulan shudder involuntarily.

Li Mu stopped and vigilantly observed the surroundings.

At this moment, he heard a faint sound, as if someone was whispering.

Li Mu launched an attack towards the location of the sound, and saw an unknown creature that was completely black, revealing only two eyes.

On its head was exactly the thing he had seen before, and at this moment, the System's query notification sounded.

The thing on the unknown creature's head was none other than the Chaos Pearl. Born in the Chaos, it possessed incomparably powerful strength, could conceal all heavenly secrets, hide itself, and the possessor of the Chaos Pearl could also avoid the Heavenly Dao tribulations.

At the same time, it could also open up a Major Thousand Worlds and become a Heavenly Dao Saint who proves the Dao through strength.

However, the Chaos Pearl had gone missing after escaping the Great Tribulation of Opening the Heavens; he didn't expect it to be here.
