"You guys, I have something important to say."
Xu Mu walked out of the house and called out to them.
"Brother, it's really rare for you not to go out early in the morning,"
Dai Xingluo walked over with a smile on her face.
"Brother Mu, what's the matter?"
Meng Wanyue also came up to Xu Mu.
Tong Guoguo, holding an apple in her hand, looked at Xu Mu.
"Have you ever heard of the Martial Arts Summit?"
Xu Mu sat on the steps outside the villa, looking at the people in front of him.
"Is the Martial Arts Summit about to start again? Time flies."
Tong Guoguo took a bite of her apple. "I can't believe five years have passed already."
"Brother Mu, what is the Martial Arts Summit?"
Meng Wanyue asked with a puzzled look.
Although she was an ancient martial artist, she was only an assassin and had never been in contact with any sects before.
"So stupid, you don't even know this."
Dai Xingluo showed a mocking expression to Meng Wanyue, and then gave a rough overview of the specific situation.
She used to be a sect disciple, so naturally she knew about the Martial Arts Summit.
She remembered that once, the Heavenly Sword Sect had also led disciples to participate, but as an outer sect disciple, she naturally wasn't qualified to go.
Hearing this, Meng Wanyue nodded secretly. So there was such an activity among those major sects.
"Xu Mu, why are you suddenly bringing this up?"
Tong Guoguo asked after taking a bite of her apple.
"My sister came to see me just now. She wants to participate in this competition to see if she can enter a major sect. Your current strengths are all very formidable, so I just wanted to see if you guys are interested too."
Xu Mu asked with a smile, looking at them.
"Brother, what nonsense are you talking about? I won't join those sects. They are too troublesome. It's much more comfortable to follow you."
Dai Xingluo sat beside Xu Mu, holding his arm and saying.
"Me too. Although I've never been in a sect, I know that Brother Mu's place is stronger than any sect."
Meng Wanyue looked at Xu Mu and said, "I am Brother Mu's person, and I have no interest in other sects."
Tong Guoguo said faintly on the side, "At my level, I don't need to participate in the Martial Arts Summit, right? If I randomly go to a sect, I'd start as an elder."
Xu Mu looked at the three people in front of him and smiled, "Then are you interested in this battle?"
"Of course."
Dai Xingluo raised her fist, "I also want to participate in the battle, just to see what the geniuses of those major sects are really made of."
"This is indeed a grand event in the cultivation world. As far as I know, Wang Hun goes to watch it every year."
Tong Guoguo said from the side, "You should have heard the saying: One Madman, Two Cripples, Three Killers, Four Wealthy Families, and the Cleaners who are outside the Five Elements, right?"
"Of course I have."
Xu Mu nodded.
"The reason this saying spread was because during a previous Martial Arts Summit, the Sect Master of Kunlun Mountain and the sect masters of other sects said it while chatting."
Tong Guoguo paused and explained, "A casual remark spread so widely, which is enough to show the level of this grand event."
Xu Mu nodded inwardly. It was indeed true. This phrase had deeply rooted itself in people's hearts; almost everyone knew it.
"Then let's go together, just to experience it."
Xu Mu looked at Dai Xingluo and Meng Wanyue, "If you two want to participate, I agree, but you must participate in the name of our Righteous Becoming Evil Sect, and help us advertise along the way."
"Xu Mu, what exactly is this sect of yours? I've never heard of it."
Tong Guoguo asked curiously.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of it. I'm not afraid to tell you, my master said that there are only two people in this sect. Besides my master, there is only me left."
Xu Mu said with a smile, "Of course, I'm not sure now. Maybe my master has taken in other people as disciples."
Tong Guoguo evaporated the apple core in her hand with her Qi energy, nodding secretly, "It seems he should be a hidden expert."
After all, being able to give Xu Mu so many high-level cultivation techniques, this was definitely a legendary existence.
"Let's continue cultivating. It should be in the next day or two."
Xu Mu planned to have them all take the divine medicine to further enhance their combat power before they headed out.
As for Ye Tong, Feng Yue, and the others, they naturally didn't need to go.
Xu Mu enhanced them not for combat at all, but just to give them the ability to protect themselves.
Everyone went to the underground illusion array together.
The three girls started fighting. As for Xu Mu, he took out the rank-nine heavenly treasures he got from Tantai Quan this time.
This time he wanted to refine more than ten pills to make it easier for the people around him to advance.
After entering a state of focus, he began to refine pills. Currently, he had promised pills to many people.
For example, the pill promised to Jin Mo, and the divine medicine promised to Qiguan You.
Of course, there was also the pill promised to Tantai Quan this time.
With three rank-nine heavenly treasures, Xu Mu added the corresponding medicinal materials to stimulate the medicinal effects, and finally refined nearly twenty Great Nourishment Pills.
The medicinal effect of this was definitely very fierce.
After putting away the pills, Xu Mu took out his phone and glanced at it, finding a missed call.
It was a call from Fu Jinyu.
Just now, Xu Mu had entered the second-level focus, completely absorbed, and didn't hear it at all.
So, he called back.
After a while, Fu Jinyu's voice came over, "What were you doing just now? Why didn't you answer the phone?"
"I was refining pills and didn't hear the ringtone. What's wrong?"
Xu Mu said into the phone.
"Do you know about the Martial Arts Summit at Kunlun Mountain? I heard the date has been set, and it's less than ten days away."
Fu Jinyu said on the other end.
"What? Sister Empress is also interested? I remember that alien races cannot go."
As Xu Mu spoke, he put the pill furnace into his storage space.
"You don't know this, but the alien races value the geniuses of the younger generation of you Yanhuang descendants very much. Although the alien races cannot enter, every time it is held, they will bribe people to record the whole process."
Fu Jinyu said over there, "I'm too lazy to find someone this time. I guess you will definitely go. After you watch it, just come back and tell me about it."
"Can't you sneak in?"
Xu Mu asked in some surprise. After all, Nalan Shisan had never mentioned this matter; it seemed she could enter.
"I don't want to cause trouble. There are many experts in Kunlun Mountain. Those top experts can determine whether we are an alien race almost with a single perception."
Fu Jinyu explained, "Unless it is someone like Nalan Shisan, who has never publicly attacked Yanhuang and is ruthless to the alien races, they have privileges."
"I see."
Xu Mu nodded secretly. No wonder Nalan Shisan didn't care about this matter, because she could go in originally. "Otherwise, let me ask. I might be able to bring you in."
He prepared to ask Wei Jingzhi. Logically speaking, Fu Jinyu hadn't done anything heinous.
Mainly because this time was fraught with danger, he felt that having a few more experts around him would definitely be a good thing.
"Okay."
Fu Jinyu agreed on the other end.
Just after hanging up the phone, Xu Mu's phone rang again.

to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

rowess are unmatched, commanding a million-strong army! Yet, the Emperor wants to depose him for the sake of a false prince? Hold on, are you throwing me into some female-oriented romance plot? How can I tolerate this? With a grand wave of his hand—the Nine Clan Extraction Technique! Slander the Emperor? Very well, all of you shall die! ... The False Prince: "Although I am not the biological son, Father and Mother love me more. The throne should be mine!" The Female Lead: "Qin Xiao, you are the Emperor, and I am a commoner. If you wish to marry me, you must abdicate. Otherwise, you will never have me!" The Empress: "After we divorce, you must give me half the empire!" The Transmigrator Consort: "You worthless Emperor, why should I kneel to you? All men are equal—I advise you to be kind!" The Great General: "The enemy general is my childhood sweetheart. For her sake, I willingly abandon the frontier defenses!" The Retired Emperor: "Although Yu'er was adopted, I prefer him. Qin Xiao, you should abdicate and let him become Emperor!" ... Very well! So this is how you want to play? Facing this twisted world of female-oriented tropes, Qin Xiao grins and raises his hand to unleash—the Nine Clan Extraction Technique! I am the Emperor. Why would I bother reasoning with you? Seal the gates! Leave none alive!
