Chapter 172 Escape
However, although this battle was difficult, and Li Mu's strength and foundation far exceeded his expectations, the kid still died after all. Hong Tianlong looked proud and was about to confirm whether Li Mu was dead. At this moment, An arm suddenly stretched out from the rock.
Hong Tianlong's proud expression suddenly froze on his face.
Impossible, how could this kid not be dead yet?
"Kaka!"
Li Mu stretched out an arm from the rock. He grabbed the rock and slowly crawled out of the human-shaped hole. He was covered in blood, his arms were broken, but he had an extremely cold smile on his face.
"It's a pity that you couldn't kill me with this blow. You couldn't kill me. Now it's my turn to kill you!"
Li Mu slowly climbed out of the rock. His mouth was full of blood, and his teeth were completely stained red with blood. His cold voice was like the cold wind blowing from the Nine Nether Hell.
"Impossible, how could you not be dead?"
Hong Tianlong's pupils shrank to the extreme in an instant. He stared at Li Mu and howled crazily, then turned around and ran away without hesitation.
Hong Tianlong's face was injured, most of his energy was consumed, and his fighting spirit could not be used. Although it seemed that Li Mu was seriously injured, Hong Tianlong was in a bad state now. He did not dare to bet. He did not dare to bet that in this situation he would be better than Li Mu's life is tough.
"Gather your energy into a sword and cut!"
"Pfft!"
A terrifying sword light struck instantly, and the sword light struck Hong Tianlong's back with great precision. Blood suddenly appeared in an instant. Hong Tianlong screamed miserably, his body trembled, he ran away at a crazy speed, and disappeared in the blink of an eye. In the mountains and forests.
The blow just now caused him more injuries and completely knocked away Hong Tianlong's last bit of courage.
Li Mu can still activate the magical power of gathering energy to form a sword. Who knows if he can activate other magical powers. If he turns around and fights to the death, those magical powers just now are enough to blast him into pieces.
"puff!"
Seeing Hong Tianlong escape, Li Mu spit out a mouthful of blood. His vision went dark and he almost passed out. His body had been squeezed to the limit. The blow that Hong Tianlong had just used to activate his fighting spirit had seriously injured him.
It was only by relying on his extreme will that he did not faint. If he had fainted just now, he would probably die.
"Hong Tianlong, you are still too timid after all. If you can't kill me today, I will kill you tomorrow!"
Li Mu walked out of the rock step by step with bloody footprints, and walked step by step to the place where Hong Tianlong was last stabbed. He immediately asked the mastermind to collect Hong Tianlong's blood. A small half tube of Hong Tianlong's blood was quickly collected.
This small half tube of blood is of great use to Li Mu, because the fighting spirit comes from the depths of the blood and from genes. As long as it comes from genes, the Star Destroyer can refine it, and the Star Destroyer can refine Hong Tianlong's fighting spirit. Let Li Mu use it.
After collecting Hong Tianlong's blood, Li Mu turned around and left without hesitation in the darkness. His battle with Hong Tianlong just now probably scared away many prying monsters around him, but now he was attracted by the strong smell of blood. May appear at any time.
Li Mu took a Grass Return Pill and quickly disappeared into the forest. Soon he found a stream and quickly washed away the blood on his body. After only washing in the stream for half a minute, Li Mu left immediately.
Soon after, he cleaned up all the traces, jumped onto a huge and dense tree, dug a large hole under the cover of the tree crown, covered the entrance of the hole with branches and leaves, and immediately got into the big hole.
"We must recover as soon as possible!"
Li Mu sat in the tree hole and without hesitation took out a golden salvia and stuffed it into his mouth. He bit off the golden salvia in one bite and ate it like a jujube.
When the Golden Salvia miltiorrhiza entered the abdomen, a terrifying power emerged from the Golden Salvia miltiorrhiza, and waves of terrible pain began to appear. This was caused by the body being unable to withstand this violent and huge force for a while.
Li Mu endured the severe pain and immediately began to activate the Tiger Demon Immortality Body. He used the golden salvia to restore his energy and practice the Tiger Demon Immortality Body.
Golden Salvia is indeed a valuable cultivation treasure, but even if a master uses it, it will take about half a month to a month to refine the power contained in it.
Therefore, golden salvia miltiorrhiza is often used as medicine to make elixirs, and the golden elixirs are prepared and taken one by one. One golden salvia miltiorrhiza is enough to refine ten golden elixirs, and each golden elixir is worth ten thousand gold.
For ordinary earth-level or heaven-level monks, if they wanted to completely refine a golden salvia, it would probably take them three months to half a year.
But Li Mu is different. His body is stronger than the Grandmaster. With his physical strength, Li Mu can directly eat a golden salvia tree, even if there is some waste.
The violent power of Golden Salvia miltiorrhiza kept impacting Li Mu's meridians, but Li Mu ignored it and frantically ran the Tiger Demon's Immortal Body, using the Tiger Demon's Immortal Body to refine this violent power bit by bit.
On the other side, Hong Tianlong also took a pill and quickly joined the other people from Sichuan Wu.
"Senior Brother Hong, why are you injured like this?" A Sichuan Wu contestant was shocked and asked quickly.
Hong Tianlong's face turned ugly. He was about to say that it was caused by fighting a monster, but he immediately changed his mind as soon as he rolled his eyes.
"I fought with a monster just now. The monster was not weak, but a little difficult to deal with. Unexpectedly, when I was dealing with that monster, Li Mu from Rongda University unexpectedly attacked me. I didn't check for a moment, and he attacked me. I succeeded, and finally managed to kill him!"
Hong Tianlong said pretending to be angry.
"What? People from Rongda are so bold?" The other four contestants from Sichuan Wu were immediately angry.
"The Xichuan military has a clear rule that you cannot kill each other in the Tuling Secret Realm. The people from Rongda dare to ignore the ban and attack Senior Brother Hong. This matter cannot be left alone!"
"Yes, we can't just let this matter go. Let's go find them. If that kid from Rongda dares to resist, we will kill him on the spot and he will have nothing to say!"
Kawatake's other four contestants had no doubt at all, and all of them were extremely angry.
The four contestants from Chuanwu didn't know about Mo Xinye's reward, and Hong Tianlong didn't tell them either. Firstly, after telling them, the money would be divided among them. Secondly, not everyone might be willing to kill for the reward. Li Mu, the third one is a talkative person. If everyone knows about this, I'm afraid it will probably be leaked.
Even if Xichuan protects Hong Tianlong by then, the glorious image created by Hong Tianlong will probably collapse by then, which will obviously affect his future to a certain extent.
"Okay, I'm injured now, you guys come with me to find that kid!"
A cold flash flashed in Hong Tianlong's eyes, and he nodded immediately. He was not sure of killing Li Mu alone, but with the addition of the other four Sichuan Wu contestants, Li Mu was definitely no match for them even if he was seriously injured.
"Senior Brother Hong, lead the way!"
Hong Tianlong immediately began to lead the way and returned along the original path. He believed that Li Mu's injuries must be more serious than his, and he would never be able to hide far even if he wanted to.
But Hong Tianlong didn't expect that Li Mu not only had a body comparable to that of a general-level demon, but also had a large medicinal herb returning elixir, and his recovery speed was astonishing.
Soon after, Hong Tianlong led four other Sichuan Wu people to the place where Li Mu fought with him. The place was in a mess, and the other four Sichuan Wu people were frightened to see it.
The four Sichuan Wu men knew Hong Tianlong's strength very well. Li Mu could fight with Hong Tianlong, injure him, and cause such damage, even if it was a 'sneak attack', it was enough to show Li Mu's tyranny.
And looking at the traces here, there are no traces of a sneak attack. It is very likely that this was a head-to-head battle between the two. However, Hong Tianlong lost and was injured. Maybe Li Mu was attacked because of his face.
"Li Mu from Rongda is so strong!" A contestant from Sichuan and Wuhan swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty.
"That guy is really powerful. He is worthy of being the number one person in Rongcheng University. I heard that he is also a powerful colonel in the Rongcheng military. He is not an ordinary person!"
Another Kawatake contestant also lost his pride and said solemnly.
Originally, Sichuan Wu was the first place in the Ten Fort League last year and looked down on other participating teams. But now seeing Hong Tianlong's tragic appearance and the traces of destruction before their eyes, the hearts of these Sichuan Wu contestants were filled with awe. That pride was completely gone.
"If we find him later, the four of us will attack together. If we fight alone, we will definitely not be his opponent!"
Another contestant from Kawatake said nervously.
"What are you afraid of? That kid fought with me and was injured more seriously than me. When we find him later, as long as one or two of you take action, he won't be able to escape!"
Hong Tianlong looked dissatisfied and said dissatisfied.
The four Chuanwu contestants were all indifferent. They thought to themselves that if Li Mu was seriously injured, would you be the one running? If he was more seriously injured, you would have caught or beheaded him on the spot. How could he escape?
It must have been you, Hong Tianlong, who was more seriously injured and ran away because you were invincible. Don't treat others as idiots.
"He's not around here, and there's no trace of his escape!"
After searching around for more than an hour, Chuanwu's people could not find any traces that could be traced.
"Damn it!"
Hong Tianlong looked at the darkness around him with an ugly expression, and punched a rock to pieces.
"Senior Brother Hong, Li Mu is powerful and you are injured again. If he recovers and attacks sneakily, we may be in danger. Since Li Mu attacked first, we will report this matter to the school when the secret realm opens in a few days. and the military, please ask the school and the military to take him down!"
A Kawatake contestant suggested.
"Okay, let's do it like this. Find a safe place first. You guys can protect me while I recover from my injuries!"
Hong Tianlong nodded and said that when the secret realm is opened, his master will also come. At that time, he will accuse Li Muluo and Li Mu will not be able to leave even if he wants to.
"But we still need to look for Golden Salvia!" A contestant from Sichuan and Wuhan said with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Is it more important to find Golden Salvia or for me to recover from my injuries?" Hong Tianlong said coldly.
Of course, it was important to find Golden Salvia and win the Ten Fort League, but several Chuanwu contestants only dared to think so in their hearts and did not dare to say it out loud.
