Chapter 815 - Alien Invasion

Chapter 815 Alien Invasion

Two fists collided with each other.

Collision was the most primitive way of gauging a contest in strength.

Bang!

A muffled noise which sounded like two pieces of leather hitting each other rang out.

The air around the clashing fists surged like transparent water waves.

Li Mu staggered back.

An overwhelming reaction force that he had never experienced before was transferred to his fist and arm. The joints and skin of his hand made cracking sounds, and numerous phalanges were broken. His fist was badly mutilated. Numerous hair-like cracks appeared in the bones of his right arm under the skin and flesh.

Li Mu could no longer keep his footing. He took three and a half steps back and regained his footing.

The young Taoist priest named Indestructible stood in front of Li Mu.

Both his God’s Right Arm and his fist remained unscathed.

However, broken bones pierced through the skin and flesh and were exposed at the elbow joint of his right arm. The pale broken bones looked like pieces of a broken saber. Obviously, the bones of his right arm were completely broken, and the torn muscles hung limply. The entire right arm was almost destroyed.

He staggered three steps back and managed to regain his footing.

The two competitors looked at each other with shock in their eyes.

Since Li Mu started to practice the Zhenwu Boxing, he had come across several opportunities and improved his physical strength significantly. As a result, his physical strength was unparalleled in the world, and in the Ziwei Star Zone, nobody could defeat him by relying purely on physical strength. Even the ancestors of the six major clans, who defeated Li Mu by relying on their high cultivation levels and superb combat skills, were no match for Li Mu in terms of physical strength. That was why Li Mu felt shocked.

The young Taoist priest named Indestructible looked elegant, but his punch was extraordinarily powerful. It almost smashed Li Mu’s right hand into pieces, and it tore open Li Mu’s right palm.

His physical strength was really terrifying.

At first, he was determined to defeat Li Mu, so he proposed to compete for skill, will, and strength. The last round of competition was for strength. Because physical strength was his forte, he arranged the competition for strength as the last round, in the hope that he could succeed in defeating Li Mu.

Actually, he played some little tricks in this round of competition.

Like some of his friends, when he was a child, he heard about the great strength and deeds of Senior Yu from his elders and aimed to defeat Senior Yu’s successor. Although today was the first time he met Li Mu, he had done a thorough investigation of Li Mu.

He initially thought that he would surely defeat Li Mu today.

However, he didn’t expect that he did not have any advantage over Li Mu at all in the “strength contest”, about which he felt most confident.

His right arm was a real God’s Right Arm.

However, things turned out differently from what he expected.

“Could there be any secret about Li Mu’s right arm?”

This time, even the little Taoist novice, who had been standing next to him, looked greatly shocked.

The Taoist priests practicing sword skills on the small square in front of Jintai Temple had already stopped their practice.

Their cultivation levels were too low for them to understand the true meaning of this competition. They just saw two young men exchanging punches, resulting in their fists and arms being broken, and thought that the fight was quite spectacular.

Li Mu performed his Cultivation Method, and the wounds on his hand healed in an instant.

“Someday, I will surely return what you have given me today. I’m looking forward to our next fight.”

Li Mu removed the Grand Mountain Ancient Sword from him and inserted it into the ground. Then, he turned around and left.

The young Taoist priest raised his eyebrows and opened his mouth, but he didn’t utter a word in the end.

He watched Li Mu disappear into the morning mist. As runes and light flashed on his right arm, his broken arm healed, and all wounds disappeared without a trace. Now, he could move his right arm flexibly. He pulled the Grand Mountain Ancient Sword out of the ground and held it in his hand.

“Back then, this sword surpassed the Pure Yang Sword.”

He carefully observed the sword, trying to find its secrets.

“The two of you actually tied in the fight that you had just now,” the little Taoist novice suddenly said.

The young Taoist priest nodded and said, “Yes. The competition for skill was a tie. In the second round of competition for will, I performed a little better than he did. In terms of strength, he is a little stronger than me. After all, my arm injury is more serious than his fracture. Although I took less steps back than him by half a step, he would have the upper hand if it were a real fight.”

The little Taoist novice said, “Li Mu is very proud.”

“Yes, he’s more arrogant than many people I know.” The young Taoist priest took his outer robe and Taoist hat from the hands of the little Taoist novice and put them on neatly. Then, he said, “That’s quite normal. After all, he’s that man’s successor.”

“I’ve heard the dragon skeleton is in that man’s hands,” said the little Taoist novice.

“The dragon skeleton has been in the hands of that man for several years. Many idiots want to take the dragon skeleton back from him. That’s ridiculous. In fact, they don’t even know the real value of the dragon skeleton. He has been busy dealing with some troublesome matters and has experienced a time travel these years, so he doesn’t have time to deal with them. Otherwise, Baoji City would probably have been stained with blood.”

The young Taoist priest cut the tip of his middle finger with the edge of the Grand Mountain Ancient Sword. A drop of blood oozed from the cut and dripped onto the blade. Golden Taoist runes flashed in the blood, and the blood quickly seeped into the mirror-like blade of the sword, which was as clear as autumn water.

Then, the sword turned into a beam of faint light and entered the young Taoist priest’s forehead.

After refining the Grand Mountain Ancient Sword, the young Taoist priest turned around and asked the little Taoist novice, “Senior fellow apprentice, you have seen the power of Senior Yu’s successor today. The Gate of the Ancestors in Qinling is going to open soon. Do you want to go there?”

The little Taoist novice smiled and said, “Of course. I’m going there. It’s good to go there and watch how things will go. I have to deal with those disobedient slaves.”

Li Mu would never know that the little Taoist novice was the young Taoist priest’s senior.

The little Taoist novice was the future successor of the Pure Yang Sect, and his Taoist name was Undying.

The name meant undying and indestructible.

“I’ve finally returned the sword.”

Li Mu went down the North Mountain and felt quite relaxed.

Li Mu didn’t ask the old faker about the difference between the Pure Yang Sword and the Grand Mountain Ancient Sword.

Although the old faker did things in a seemingly illogic way, he was still reliable when it came to important matters. Li Mu didn’t believe that the old faker was that stupid to give him the wrong sword. Judging from the look on the face of the young Taoist priest named Indestructible, it was obvious that the old faker gave Li Mu the wrong sword on purpose.

Li Mu didn’t want to spend too much time thinking about the secret behind it.

Today, the fight with the young Taoist priest made him realize that there would always be someone better than him. Although his physical strength was unparalleled, he still failed to defeat the young Taoist priest overwhelmingly, which greatly surprised him.

“This monk called Indestructible was just one of the many descendants of gods. Moreover, he had broken free from the seal for a long time, which meant that he and the others in the same sect had not been sealed in the center of the Chaotic Battlefield and they are not the most powerful ones. However, he was powerful enough. How terrifying will the other more powerful descendants of gods be?”

Li Mu thought about it carefully and felt even more shocked.

The old faker had said that the young Taoist priest named Indestructible was from the Pure Yang Sect and should be a descendant of one of the gods of the Dark Yellow Army. Back then, the old faker suspected that the young Taoist priest’s ancestor was one of the traitors, but he could not find any evidence. Today, the young Taoist priest gave Li Mu the impression that he was a very good and elegant Taoist monk. Li Mu found it difficult to believe that the young Taoist priest’s ancestor was one of the traitors.

If the people of the Pure Yang Sect were not traitors, the young Taoist priest named Indestructible should be on the same side as Li Mu.

Li Mu believed if that were the case, the Pure Yang Sect wouldn’t just sit back and watch when the six major clans and their ancestors began their invasion.

Although the old faker refused to take action, Li Mu would not fight alone.

Today, while Li Mu was in Jintai Temple, he didn’t talk about the six major clans and the Gate of the Ancestors. He believed that with the power of the descendants of gods, everything would be brought under control.

He walked down the mountain road and came to the West Pass of the old downtown area of Baoji City.

The smell of breakfast wafted in the air.

For the people of Baoji City, their breakfast included a wide variety of food, including wide noodles made of millet flour, steamed wheat flour, bean curd soup, meatball soup, meat pie, fried dough sticks, soy milk, vegetable pancakes... All of these were delicacies that Li Mu loved when he was a child.

He was in a good mood. He came to the roadside, ordered some food, and ate his breakfast with relish.

“Have you heard about the magic tree in the Hidden-dragon Bay reservoir? It has covered the entire reservoir and grown countless magic fruits. Ordinary people can prolong their lives and cure their diseases by eating some of these magic fruits...”

“This news has spread widely. Everybody knows that. I’ve also heard that there are all kinds of treasures including agates, gold, gems, diamonds, pearls, silver bars under it... It’s just like a money making tree.”

Two old men chatted while eating breakfast.

Li Mu asked, “Is that real? How can a fruit tree grow gold and silver jewelry?”

One of the old men glanced at Li Mu and said, “Young man, are you not aware of this? If you can swim, you should go and get some. Maybe you can get a couple of diamonds for your marriage.”

Finding that the two old men did not seem to be lying, Li Mu felt even more surprised.

He saw that fruit tree when he passed by the Hidden-dragon Bay reservoir yesterday. The tree was indeed magical, and its fruits were comparable to magical medicines. However, it was a little too strange for it to produce gold and silver jewelry. No matter how magical it was, it was impossible for it to sprout gold and silver jewelry. Those materials were different from the tree in terms of physical property.

After breakfast, Li Mu decided to go to Hidden-dragon Bay reservoir to have a look, but his phone suddenly rang.

He answered the call. His face suddenly changed after he listened for a while.

The universe outside the solar system was pitch black and lonely.

Since ancient times, the universe outside the solar system had been a dark space for the people living on Earth. The few photos and intermittent data sent back by the previously launched space detectors did not reveal much.

Three years ago, the major countries on Earth gathered their science and technology forces and deployed tens of surveillance satellites at the periphery of the solar system. Only a few people knew what these seemingly unnecessary satellites were used for.

Swoosh!

A streak of fiery light suddenly came from the depths of the starry universe and smashed one of the satellites into pieces.

Flames flickered in the starry sky.

Numerous bronze warships that were thousands of meters long slowly came into view from the distance. They looked like steel monsters from the depths of the starry sky and shone with a cold metallic luster that set off their strong killing intent.

“The Star Graveyard is right in front of us.”

A mighty-looking figure stood on the deck of a giant phoenix-shaped spaceship leading the fleet and looked at the galaxy in front of him, his eyes full of desire.

At the same time, this image was transmitted to the ground through a surveillance satellite.

At some base in the North Continent.

“Oh, my God. The aliens are starting their invasion.”

A secret military base in the Albert Mountains on the White Center Continent.

“Are they the demons mentioned by the returners?”

Hero Country.

“They are coming.”

Su Cuo received a call from Song Changlin and his tone was solemn.
