Chapter 684 My Humble Uncle
After Yan Chengying and Zhao Lianping left, Li Ming was not thinking about how to build the village into a habitable base.
Instead, he was thinking about how to approach his mission. After all, his mission was the primary goal. Everyone was playing the development system in the open world, so why not go to Taixu Mountain? After all, the three little ones were quite cute.
"Really? Am I really going to sit here and wait for someone to come? Wouldn't that make me a husband waiting for his wife?"
Li Ming wanted to complain. It was not that Li Ming had not thought about the existence of the task cursor at the beginning, but the problem was that he had already entered the task area.
The cursor naturally has no guidance, but the East China Sea is such a large area, if you don’t have a cursor to guide, you should be a human being.
But Li Ming actually had no other good solution and could only go for a stroll on the sea from time to time.
He had to go out three times every day, morning, noon and evening. This made those who survived with Yan Chengying amazed when they saw Li Ming.
This is not just a disciple of Taixu Mountain, he is a true immortal of Taixu Mountain.
Have you ever seen a master walking on the waves? Masters of this level are all top-notch.
No, even among those famous masters in the martial arts world, few of them can take on the bed crossbow.
Could this be the legendary [Lihuo Sword]?
This was the first time these guys knew about Taixu Mountain.
Li Ming, who was carrying the [Sunfire Greatsword], was not actually walking on the waves as those guys thought. He was just using the jet and footwork of [Fire Envoy Zhen Kun] to walk on the sea.
The disadvantage of this is that it consumes a bit of energy. If there is no auxiliary armor or skills that can quickly accumulate energy, three times a day is the limit.
The farthest Li Ming can fly is five nautical miles, and if he had a boat, he might be able to go even faster.
Although he was a little seasick, people are forced to do it, right?
Just like before, when he was a little seasick in the world of Yulandel, didn’t he try hard to endure it and pretend that nothing happened?
So there are some things that you just have to endure and get used to.
Let's turn our attention back to Old Man Wang. He listened to Li Ming and took another official road. Indeed, no one stopped him, and Li Ming gave him a lot of tolls. It was faster to take the official road directly, so he rode at full speed all the way through the post station.
It took seven days to return to Taixu Mountain, and he had to change two horses during the journey. It was even faster than Li Ming's speed to the East China Sea.
Later, I found the village chief Li at the foot of the mountain. After explaining everything to him, I followed him up the mountain at noon the next day.
However, what Old Man Wang and Village Chief Li did not expect was that there was another person waiting in the main hall of Taixu Mountain.
He looks relatively young, though somewhat dusty, and seems to be just a knight.
However, when the knight saw Old Man Wang, he was very surprised and recognized him.
But before he could say anything to Old Man Wang, a man appeared in the center of the main hall.
The man had gray hair and blue eyes, a weathered look in his eyes, a high crown and a long blue and white robe. He had an extraordinary aura. Even though he looked like a young man, they did not show any disrespect to him.
Because when this person appeared in the hall, they knew who was in charge.
"Village Chief Li, you said there are evil spirits lurking in the East China Sea?"
When the young man looked at him, Old Man Wang and the knight put away their curious looks and felt a chill in their hearts.
Village Chief Li immediately gave Old Man Wang a hand and said, "It was this Old Man Wang who said that he was previously invited by Young Master Li Ming to be a rickshaw driver. Later, he heard that there were evil demons in the East China Sea, so he asked Old Man Wang to come back and invite the immortal out of the mountain."
"Oh, Li Ming?" When talking about Li Ming, the eyes of the Chiyuan Immortal became more serious, and Lin Chaoyu and Su Mei, who were standing behind the Chiyuan Immortal, looked at each other.
When did Master Uncle come back?
Su Mei raised her eyes, but Lin Chaoyu held the sword and shook his head indifferently.
Obviously, neither of them knew when Li Ming would come back.
But normally, Li Ming came back through the saved teleportation anchor point, and the teleportation anchor point of Taixu Mountain is at the foot of the mountain.
Naturally, Li Ming did not go up the mountain, so there was no greeting.
After thinking for a moment, the Immortal Chi Yuan looked at the knight and said, "When you came here, you also said that there was an evil demon lurking in the East China Sea. Are the evil demons you are talking about the same one?"
Before Old Man Wang could react, the knight nodded quickly, "Yes, just as the old senior said, my son was originally planning to go with Young Master Li Ming to eliminate the evil spirits, but for some reason, Young Master Li Ming chose to go alone."
Old Man Wang thought about it and nodded. Although Li Heng seemed to be a bit of a stand-by, to be honest, it was the county government that took action, so he could understand why Li Heng did not take action. After all, this kind of thing could not be solved just by his wish.
Besides, with Li Ming's protection, he was not injured, so he nodded.
Seeing Old Man Wang nod, Immortal Chiyuan fell silent again. To be honest, it was indeed necessary to go down the mountain to kill the evil, but Li Ming had already gone there, so it should be none of his business.
Li Ming came to let someone know just because he was afraid that he couldn't handle it. The problem was that Li Ming's Inch Heart Fist had reached perfection, and few evil spirits could defeat him. However, Li Ming always felt that he couldn't comprehend the heart of the sword, and felt that he was very weak.
This made the Immortal Chi Yuan speechless. The original intention of letting Li Ming take the little ones to test the sword last time was to let Li Ming shed the lead dust himself, but it seemed to have no effect.
Later, Li Ming ran to Daqin. Although he went through the channels of the imperial court, to be honest, there were no evil demons in Daqin. After all, the progress of civilization there was indeed slower.
This time, the Chiyuan Immortal discovered that Li Ming had returned by himself and had even bumped into a wild evil demon. This made the Chiyuan Immortal a little conflicted. If he went down the mountain to eliminate the demon, he could naturally solve the problem quickly, but if he did so, the people of Shenzhou would have less experience.
After all, only by experiencing it can you know how to deal with it, and the same is true for letting Jiang Wanru and others test the sword.
Although the progress in strength is slow, the improvement in swordsmanship is very solid, especially Cheng Lingshuang, who has made very rapid progress and has an extremely solid understanding of swordsmanship.
Li Ming, on the other hand, has been stuck in the second level of Taixu Sword Heart, with no dust or dirt in his heart, and a firm and strong will.
Although this level is acceptable, Jiang Wanru and Ma Yanqing are only at this level.
But Li Ming is my uncle's senior. Regardless of whether it's embarrassing or not, it's hard for a swordsman of that level to not have his will disturbed by high concentrations of Honkai energy every day.
The three people in the hall saw that the Immortal Chi Yuan was silent, so they naturally did not dare to speak. However, the sharp-minded Su Mei saw her master's dilemma. She also knew that her uncle was really strong, but what to say?
Su Mei suspected that her uncle-master always thought that he was not great at all, so he was very humble.
So Su Mei stepped forward and said, "Master, I'll take Junior Sister Cheng down the mountain with me. Junior Sister Cheng has been stuck in a rut lately, so I'd like to take her out to see the world. They say reading a thousand books is not as good as traveling a thousand miles, and I think this is a great opportunity."
Su Mei's words made the Immortal Chi Yuan quite satisfied. This disciple has always been the most clever.
Lin Chaoyu also stepped forward and said, "...Yes, Master, Junior Sister Wanru has just recently achieved a breakthrough, and her Qi is still unstable. If you leave rashly, she might go astray. Please rest assured and leave this matter to Junior Sister Su."
After looking at his two disciples, the Immortal Chi Yuan nodded, then looked at Old Man Wang and the knight, "In that case, I will send my disciple to accompany you. There are few evil demons in this world who can resist Li Ming. It's just because they have a flaw in their hearts that they seem a bit absurd."
The knight had nothing to say, but Old Man Wang didn't care. He felt that what the immortal said was right. After all, who could lead a nearly seventy-year-old man like him to break out of the siege of thousands of soldiers without getting hurt?
Even the second best in the world couldn’t do it!
So Li Ming never thought that his original intention of asking the immortal to come down the mountain to do the task would end up hurting himself.
