The Divine Martial Stars

Chapter 799 Breaking into the Sect (Part II)

Li Mu had watched a movie titled “The Outlaws of the Marsh: The Nature of the Heroes”. He still vividly remembered a role named Gao Yanei in the movie. Gao Yanei was foolishly arrogant. In the face of his opponents, he often shouted, “What can you do to me?” Even before he was hacked into two pieces by Lin Chong later, he still bellowed, “Even if I am dead now, what can you do to me then?” Li Mu always thought that such a fool could only be found in movies and never existed in reality.

But to his surprise, he really met this kind of person in the real world.

What was more, this person was a higher-up of an immortal sect in the Mount Shong World.

“Why are all these cultivators living in seclusion in famous mountains such idiots?” Li Mu thought for a moment, then raised his hand and pointed a finger to the front.

In an instant, the air was filled with heat, and the temperature suddenly soared.

The Slight Heat Broadsword of the 24 Solar Terms appeared from thin air.

“Boom!”

This strike landed right in front of Tian Fu. But it was blocked by a translucent air-made sword shadow that emerged from Tian Fu’s body.

“She has a protective Magic Treasure?”

Li Mu was slightly taken aback.

It was unexpected, yet it also made sense.

That woman was from the number one sect in the Mount Shong World and also had a high status in the sect. Therefore, it was perfectly normal for her to have some protective treasures with her. But what took Li Mu by surprise was that this layer of air-made sword shadow had fended off his broadsword strike, which was extremely extraordinary. It seemed that there were mighty masters in the so-called Mind-clearing Sword Sect.

“Hahaha, what now? Kill me if you can.” Tian Fu guffawed smugly.

“Now you’ve provoked the Mind-clearing Sword Sect, you’re dead for sure even if you were an immortal. No one in heaven or earth would be able to save you. You’d best go down on your knees and beg me for mercy. If you genuflect to me, perhaps I’ll consider sparing you from a couple of days’ torture before I kill you.”

This woman carried an aura of viciousness and arrogance that did not match her pretty appearance at all.

Li Mu smiled and pointed a finger again.

In the air, thunder suddenly roared. The sound was deep and distant, as though it came from a far away space and time.

It was the Insects Awaken Broadsword of the 24 Solar Terms.

All living things would be revived once the spring thunder rumbled.

“Boom!” A bolt of lightning issued by the Broadsword Intent hit the translucent air-made sword shadow in front of Tian Fu.

“Haha, how can you damage my Yin-and-Yang Bright Sword Light...” Tian Fu laughed wildly.

But her laughter stopped abruptly. As the thunder rumbled, the translucent air-made sword shadow suddenly quivered violently. Then, silver cracks spread across it like spider webs. A look of horror appeared on Tian Fu’s face. Suddenly, the sword shadow fell apart, and then the lightning struck her.

“Pfft...” She coughed up a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward. She slammed into the statue behind the hall, smashing it into pieces. But she did not stop. She then collided with the back wall of the hall and directly created a human-shaped hole in the wall before she flew outside.

Behind the large hole, thunder was still rumbling while droplets of blood rained down.

Tian Fu was dead.

Li Mu sensed that Tian Fu’s aura had vanished in an instant.

This woman had sought revenge for the smallest grievance and threatened Li Mu with the lives of his family and friends. He would never show mercy to this kind of person. He would send such people to hell no matter who they were.

If they had to blame someone, they could only blame their bad luck.

Today, Li Mu came just to rescue Luo Xuanxin. He had not even considered taking on the Taixuan Immortal Sect. However, the Taixuan Immortal Sect had done too many evil things, which enraged Li Mu.

As for the Mind-clearing Sword Sect, well, they asked for this.

Tian Fu, Elder Feng, and Elder Lei were stupid enough to rush to meet Death at a breakneck speed, so Li Mu had no choice but to get rid of them.

In the entire Taixuan Hall, there were still dozens of high-level members of the Taixuan Sect.

The place outside the hall thronged with people. More and more disciples of the Taixuan Sect hurried over.

When Li Mu glanced around—

“Flop! Flop!”

All of a sudden, the higher-ups in the hall threw away their weapons and knelt down one after another.

“Immortal, have mercy!”

“We are willing to surrender.”

They had seen with their own eyes how Li Mu killed the head of the Taixuan Sect. It was as easy as killing a chicken. Then, they also witnessed Elder Feng and Elder Lei both failing to take a single blow Li Mu dealt at them. At this point, these high-level members of the Taixuan Sect had long lost their fighting spirit. They were overwhelmed by fear. In the face of Li Mu, they knew they had no alternative but to surrender.

Li Mu opened his Third Eye, which then swept all around the hall.

It felt chilly in the hall. The vapor in the air had condensed into frost on the floor, dyeing it white.

This was because he had activated the White Dew Broadsword of the 24 Solar Terms.

More than a dozen high-level members of the Taixuan Sect felt chills creeping up their spines. Dew began to appear on their bodies. Before they realized what was going on, their flesh melted away like ice cream and revealed their white bones. In the end, only several complete skeletons, which looked like works of art, clattered to the floor, beneath which were puddles of blood.

This scene struck terror in everyone in the hall.

“Don’t, don’t do this. Immortals, don’t kill us!”

“Spare me, please! I’m willing to do anything for you...”

The remaining higher-ups of the Taixuan Immortal Sect quaked in their boots. Li Mu had almost scared the life out of them, yet they still did not dare to resist.

“They had too much bad karma and must have taken a great number of innocent lives. Their sins were unforgivable. Thus, they must die.” Li Mu withdrew the Broadsword Intent. The coldness in the hall quickly dissipated. The dew on the floor also disappeared. He remarked, “Although some of you also have bad karma drifting outside your bodies, you can still atone for your sins. Whether you will live or die depends on your future performance.”

The others finally breathed a sigh of relief as if they had been granted amnesty. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed frantically as if they were ministers thanking the emperor.

Li Mu looked at those cowards and ordered, “You shall keep your disciples within the bounds of discipline and do your job. Also, you must suppress the turmoil in the sect. I want the Taixuan Sect to operate smoothly without any problems. If any disciples of this sect dare to rebel, I’ll kill them without mercy. Do you understand?”

“Immortal Li, rest assured. The Taixuan Sect will be your most loyal lackey from now on,” the higher-ups said in unison.

Li Mu waved at them and added, “In addition, you shall immediately compensate the mortals in the sect you have captured. You must accede to all their requests and send them back to their homes. From today on, if I hear that the Taixuan Sect has done anything evil, I’ll kill all the members of this sect.”

“Yes, indeed. You have our word.”

Among the survivors, there was a middle-aged man who seemed to have the highest status. He had a big, square face and looked honest and loyal. But at this time, he had an ingratiating smile as though he were a dog begging for food. He seemed so eager to suck up to Li Mu. If he had a tail, he would wag it vigorously at him.

In a flash, Li Mu disappeared from the hall.

After he left, the higher-ups of the Taixuan Sect finally heaved collective sighs of relief.

It wasn’t until a long time later that they got up from the ground. They looked at one another and saw fear and submission in each others’ eyes.

“From now on, our Taixuan Sect will be Immortal Li’s lackey. We will do whatever he tells us. During his absence, I, Yin Junze, will be his spokesperson. Everyone, what are you waiting for? Go discipline your own disciples and suppress the upheaval. Don’t wait until something sensational occurs before you take action. When that time comes, you and I will end up worse than them,” the middle-aged man with a big, square face announced in a loud voice.

Just now, he plucked up the courage and spoke a few words to Li Mu. Thus, he thought it was only right and proper for him to declare himself as Li Mu’s spokesperson. Anyway, the others had already been scared out of their wits by Li Mu, so they did not dare to raise any objections.

However, a young elder said hesitantly, “But Immortal Li has killed the Young Mistress of the Sky Sword Peak of the Mind-clearing Sword Sect. The Void Divine Sword of the Sky Sword Peak will definitely not let this go. If he comes to take revenge, how should we deal with him?”

Yin Junze said, “Our lives are on the line now. Why worry for the remote future?”

Hearing this, everyone agreed with him. They had really been at the end of their tether. Now, they could only focus on the issue at hand.

In the Dusu Palace.

Su Cuo was pacing back and forth, feeling extremely nervous.

Those mortal women who had been abducted here to be part of the group of fairies had also gathered together and waited anxiously.

Luo Xuanxin, on the other hand, was sitting cross-legged by the broken Floating Immortal Platform. She was meditating with her eyes closed. Wisps of dense aura swirled around her body. Clear energy fluctuations spread out in all directions like invisible ripples.

Before Li Mu went to Taixuan Hall, he had treated her injuries, repaired her Dantian, and given her elixirs.

Her cultivation was rapidly recovering.

It could even be said that she had profited from this misfortune. After her old cultivation was destroyed, she obtained a more advanced Cultivation Method so that she could go further, climb higher, and gain more profound power in her future pursuit of cultivation.

There was a flash of dazzling light.

Next, Li Mu emerged in Dusu Palace.

Su Cuo was the first who came to her senses. She asked in a hurry, “Ah, Consultant Li, how did it go?”

Li Mu said, “The Taixuan Sect is no longer a threat to us.”

Everyone let out a long sigh of relief.

The mortal girls that had been brought here by force even shed tears of joy.

Li Mu had won.

They could finally go home.

Su Cuo, whose heart had jumped to her mouth, finally felt relieved.

Li Mu said, “The Taixuan Sect is just a small sect in Mount Shong. We don’t need to be troubled by it. Apart from the Taixuan Sect, there are many large sects in the depths of Mount Shong. They have a long history and numerous powerful members. Moreover, their attitude toward the secular world is not friendly at all. This is something that we must inform the country about as soon as possible.”

Su Cuo’s countenance altered again when she heard this.

With her high intelligence, she figured out what Li Mu meant in an instant.

There was no doubt that this was the worst news ever.

Mount Shong was just one of the many famous mountains in Hero Country. It was not even the most famous one. But it already had so many immortal sects. This indicated that there might be more powerful seclusive forces in other famous mountains, such as Mount Tai, Mount Hua, Mount Kunlun, Mount Tian, Mount Huang, and the like. Those mountains were even more well-known than Mount Shong.

If the immortal sects in those famous mountains were all unfriendly toward today’s secular world, it could definitely be said that Hero Country would face the biggest crisis it had ever encountered in history.

“I plan to stay in the Taixuan Sect for some time to completely subdue the Mount Shong World,” Li Mu said.

If the so-called immortal sects in the famous mountains in the Hero Country were all like the Taixuan Sect and the Mind-clearing Sword Sect, he would wipe them out one by one without showing any leniency.

If this new world was full of thistles and thorns, he wouldn’t waste any time drowning himself in disappointment or dejection. He would only uproot those thistles and thorns and flatten all the bumpy roads so as to return a peaceful and prosperous era to the truly kind and well-conducted people.

The people of Hero Country would never disappear from the world.

Li Mu firmly believed that the world should be a wonderful place for everyone to live in.
