After fifteen years of cultivation, he finally reached the pinnacle of the first rank!

Chapter 343 Doing things
"This is……"

Black Moon Old Man was taken aback. There was nothing unusual about him when the Life and Death Talisman was not activated.

Therefore, he didn't know what methods Li Musheng used.
At this moment, Li Musheng did not explain, but slowly said:

"You don't need to know what this is. You just need to know that although this thing won't kill you immediately, when it takes effect, it will definitely make you beg me to take your life."

Upon hearing this, the Black Moon Elder suddenly looked at Li Musheng, as if to confirm whether Li Musheng was bluffing him.

Li Musheng ignored the Black Moon Elder's reaction, and simply pondered for a moment before saying:
"However, you just reminded me. Although you said that everyone who entered the Xuanji Palace in the past six months has been imprisoned underground, it's possible that your old eyes are failing you and you've made a mistake. So you should still go and take a look at the eighth floor above."

Black Moon Old Man frowned, his white eyebrows furrowing, clearly not quite understanding the meaning of Li Musheng's words.

Li Musheng, however, remained calm and said:
"I will personally go to the nine underground levels. You are responsible for searching the above-ground levels. If you find a Taoist nun who is being held captive, bring her here for me."

Upon hearing this, the Black Moon Elder's brows furrowed even deeper, and a troubled expression appeared on his aged face. He said:

"Young hero, you overestimate me. With my martial arts skills, I can only guard one level of the tower. The higher the level of the Xuanji Palace tower, the stronger the martial arts skills of the guards."

"Even if I wanted to help you, young hero, I am powerless to do so. I simply cannot go to the territory of those masters to find someone. If I insist on going, I will only humiliate myself."

Li Musheng glanced at the Black Moon Elder, then flicked his finger, sending a wisp of martial arts essence into the Black Moon Elder's body. He said:

"This wisp of martial arts energy is more than enough for you to ascend to the ninth floor. As long as you do your job well, I might be in a good mood and try to help you get rid of the strange poison in your body."

Upon hearing this, Black Moon Old Man sensed the energy Li Musheng was injecting into his body, while his turbid eyes flickered uncertainly.

Although he could sense Li Musheng's dormant aura at this moment, it seemed unremarkable.

However, when he secretly tried to shake and dispel that aura, he was completely unable to budge it in the slightest. Therefore, he understood that this martial aura was definitely not something he could handle.

However, while this young man is indeed strong, is it not a bit too arrogant and conceited that he can move freely in the Nine-Story Pagoda with just a wisp of martial arts aura?

The Black Moon Old Man's face, as withered as a dead tree, shifted for a moment, but he dared not refuse Li Musheng.

Regardless of whether the methods the other party just used could truly make him wish he were dead, if he didn't agree, the other party could easily take his life.

"Since you have such a request, young hero, I will do my best to find the person you are looking for."

Black Moon Old Man reluctantly agreed, then hesitated for a moment before tentatively asking:
"But... young hero, do you really have a way to cure the strange poison in my body?"

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng nodded expressionlessly and said:

"There are definitely ways, but the most important thing is your performance. You only have this one chance to leave this Xuanji Palace. Whether you can seize it or not is entirely in your hands."

After saying that, Li Musheng turned around and stopped talking to Hei Yueyinsou. He then led Zhao Muning towards the entrance to the underground.

As for whether the poison on Black Moon Yin Sou can be cured?

How would he know if he could?
Although Li Musheng's martial arts skills have reached the pinnacle and there is no way to improve, he is not a divine doctor or poison master, so how could he possibly cure any poison?

However, there are ways to get rid of the poison on Black Moon Yin Sou's body, such as finding the Great Xuan Imperial Palace, or having him try to remove the poison for him.

As for whether Li Musheng will make a move, and whether he will succeed if he does, that's another matter entirely.

...At the same time, as Hei Yueyinsou watched Li Musheng and the other person disappear into the passageway, he became extremely hesitant again.

Although he readily agreed when facing Li Musheng, when it came to actually going upstairs to find those martial arts masters, he hesitated.

After all, the martial arts masters guarding each floor have virtually no interaction with each other, and most of these people from the martial arts world have eccentric personalities and are difficult to get along with.

Moreover, Black Moon Old Man is a weakling guarding the bottom level. Those experts think too highly of themselves and naturally look down on him.

He rashly entered the other party's territory and even wanted to search for people, so the other party would not tolerate him.

"Fine, whatever, let's go up to the second floor first. Even if that guy is stronger than me, the difference isn't that big. If we can't beat him, we can just retreat immediately."

The Black Moon Elder's face was gloomy and uncertain. Being ordered around by a junior like this, he was also holding his breath.

If the person upstairs was easy to talk to, then fine; otherwise, he would definitely have to fight with them to vent his anger.

Moreover, Li Musheng had left a wisp of martial arts energy within him, so it wouldn't be completely useless at a crucial moment.

With this in mind, the Black Moon Elder vanished from his spot and arrived at the entrance to the second-floor tower. After opening the mechanism, he instantly entered.

Before long, the Black Moon Elder arrived at the second level.

The layout of the main hall on the second floor was similar to that of the tower floor he was on, the only difference being that there were seven bronze bells placed on the ground.

The master guarding this place is a martial arts expert in the Great Xuan Jianghu who is passionate about body tempering and has cultivated a body-protecting divine skill called "Pan Yue Golden Dragon Cover".

These bronze bells on the ground were tools the other party used to practice weightlifting and kill time when they had nothing to do.

As a result, the other party often made loud noises on the floor, disturbing the Black Moon Old Man's peace of mind during his cultivation.

He had indeed reported the situation to the old eunuchs of the Da Xuan Imperial Palace, but the Da Xuan Imperial Palace did not care about the matter at all and just told him to negotiate on his own.

Therefore, the Black Moon Old Man went to the second floor several times, humbly requesting that the other party make less noise in the meantime.

But that fellow didn't take Black Moon Old Man seriously at all, and kicked him off without saying a word.

Black Moon Old Man was helpless in the face of this. He was too old to fight back, so he could only swallow his anger and keep quiet, using his inner energy to keep quiet all day.

But the Black Moon Old Man never forgot the resentment in his heart.

Not long after Black Moon Old Man reached the second floor, a burly man with bare chest and bulging muscles appeared in front of him in the blink of an eye with a loud booming sound.

"What are you doing on my turf again, you old codger?"

The burly man with a bronze complexion and a rugged face stared at the Black Moon Elder with extreme displeasure.

Upon hearing this, the Black Moon Elder did not immediately make a move, but forced a smile on his old face and said:

"I have been entrusted by someone to come here to find someone. I hope you can be lenient with me."
