Divine fortune teller and traditional Chinese medicine doctor

As the three traveled, they collected rare and precious materials. If they encountered any powerful demonic beasts, they would kill them and take their inner cores.

Even the inner cores of low-level demonic beasts are very precious; the inner cores of level 5 and above demonic beasts can fetch a good price of 100,000 top-grade spirit stones outside.

However, they would inevitably encounter robbers here, since Li Mu and his two companions did appear to be quite ordinary in terms of strength.

Because Li Mu concealed his actual cultivation level and disguised it as that of a god.

The trio's ability to play dumb while actually being cunning is quite impressive.

Besides Li Mu being a master of feigning weakness to deceive others, Zhang Jie and Zhang Yu's true combat strength is also greater than their apparent cultivation levels.

Therefore, they will not rob others on their own initiative, but if they encounter someone who is not careful enough to rob them, they will show no mercy and kill and steal without hesitation!

And so, the three of them traveled through the wilderness for three or four days, and overall, things went relatively smoothly.

However, they are still some distance from their desired destination. Currently, they are almost at the innermost part of the outer area of ​​the training ground.

On this day, the three of them were targeted by five trial participants who followed them for several hundred meters before catching up and surrounding them.

Li Mu and his group had naturally discovered that they were being followed long ago, but they did not run away. Since there was a fat sheep delivered to their door, why not take it?

After all, robbing cultivators is arguably the fastest way to accumulate wealth and increase strength.

If you're lucky enough to slaughter a big, fat sheep, you'll become rich.

Of these five, two had reached the third level of the Venerable Realm, and the other three were at the ninth level of the Divine Realm. Their overall strength appeared to be much greater than that of Li Mu and his two companions.

However, if they knew that Li Mu's true cultivation level was the fifth level of the Venerable Realm, they might not dare to attack them.

"Hmph, these three weaklings didn't even run away when they saw us? I wonder if they're stupid or if they have some kind of advantage."

One of the men, who had short hair, looked at Li Mu and the other two and sneered.

"I think they know they can't escape even if they try!" said another tall, thin man.

"Hand over all your resources! We're only interested in resources. If you behave, we might consider giving you a quick death."

The short-haired man looked at Li Mu and the other two with a cold gaze and spoke.

"Hey, second brother, don't forget, I'm also quite interested in beautiful women! This chick is really gorgeous! It would be a shame to kill her, I have to capture her to be my dual cultivation vessel! Hahaha!"

A man with a pointed mouth and monkey-like face stared at Zhang Yu with lewd eyes and laughed loudly.

"That's right. Hand over all your resources now, and I'll consider giving you a quick death."

Li Mu glanced at the five people with disdain and retorted with the same words.

"Damn it! They're absolutely courting death!"

The short-haired man was instantly enraged by Li Mu's words, and while cursing, he threw a punch at him.

puff!

However, before the opponent's fist could even reach Li Mu, the short-haired man, whose cultivation was at the third level of the Venerable Realm, turned into a cloud of blood mist, his physical body and primordial soul at the same time.

No one saw clearly how Li Mu made his move.

He seemed to be standing there without moving an inch.

So the other four were stunned. A second or two later, they thought someone was attacking them from behind, and they all turned their heads to look behind them.

Little did they know that Li Mu had simply flicked his little finger at the man in a very subtle way.

An invisible spiritual force blasted out rapidly, turning the short-haired man, who was at the third level of the Venerable Realm, into a bloody mist.

Li Mu now possesses the strength to contend with experts at the Heavenly Realm. Is it strange that a mere third-level Venerable Realm scum was annihilated by his barely perceptible flick of the finger?

Puff puff!

Then, before the other four could recover from their shock, Li Mu flicked out four more times, instantly turning them into four clouds of blood mist.

Body and soul annihilated!

This wasn't the first time Zhang Jie and his sister had seen such a scene, so they weren't particularly surprised anymore.

If it weren't for Li Mu, the brother and sister would likely have met a terrible fate facing these five people.

But now, with Li Mu as their powerful backer, the Zhang siblings can truly rest easy.

Of course, they won't just sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor forever. When they encounter enemies or monsters of equal strength, they will fight fiercely and without hesitation.

Whoosh!

Li Mu collected the resources from these people, and then, according to the rules, divided all the spoils equally among the three.

This was an agreement reached by the three of them: regardless of who killed the enemy or monster, all the spoils would be divided equally among them.

When Li Mu placed all the spoils he had seized from the five men on the ground, one particularly ordinary-looking magical artifact caught his attention.

This magical artifact was a bronze-colored spatial ring. The moment Li Mu saw the ring, his gaze suddenly sharpened.

He had seen this ring before; it was almost identical to the one Xue Yunzi was wearing!

Of course, considering that this ring is not particularly special and is just a fairly common one, it is possible that this ring is just very similar to Xue Yunzi's ring and may not actually be Xue Yunzi's.

However, Li Mu's reaction wouldn't have been so surprised if it were merely because the ring's shape resembled Xue Yunzi's ring.

Because he discovered that the ring was completely unusable. Either the owner of the ring was still alive, or it was like the magical artifact he brought from Earth, suppressed and sealed by the rules of heaven and earth, making it unusable.

If it's the second scenario, then there's a very high chance that the ring belongs to Xue Yunzi!

Because if Xue Yunzi and Anna were sent here by the spatial glitch, they would definitely be unable to activate the spatial magic treasures they originally possessed, just like him.

This could be considered a possible clue to Xue Yunzi's whereabouts!

How could this not surprise and delight Li Mu?

So, when he was choosing his share of the spoils, he made a point of holding this spatial ring in his hand.

"Wanhe, Aying, do you think there's a high chance this ring belongs to Xueyunzi?" Li Mu asked the two spirits.

"That's hard to say, Master. After all, this ring is quite ordinary. It might not be able to be opened, or it might not be able to recognize its owner. It's also possible that the ring's owner isn't dead?"

Wanhe responded.

"Yes, but there's still a possibility that this ring belongs to Xue Yunzi. Perhaps, Madam Xue Yunzi is really in this trial ground?" A Ying replied.

"Sigh, if only I had kept them alive and searched their souls, I would have known better."

Li Mu seemed somewhat annoyed.

The origin of this ring can surely be found in the memories of these cultivators.

"Li Mu, do you have five hundred jin of Xuan-grade metal on you? Even low-grade Xuan-grade will do. If you do, give me the metal, and I might be able to help you investigate what's inside this ring. That way, we might be able to find out if this ring belongs to your wife."

At this moment, the Wuxing Devouring Gold Armadillo suddenly transmitted its voice to Li Mu.

"Oh? Wuxing, do you have a way to examine the items inside this ring?" Li Mu asked quickly.
