Chapter 344 The Clothes Are Gone.The moment the gate closed, Guo Yuqing and the others entered.
“We will be sent to different places by the Everlasting Heaven. Don’t panic. When the time is up, we will be sent out of the gate.”
Guo Yuqing’s voice rang out beside them.
The next moment, everyone saw the golden light that was so glaring that they had to close their eyes. When their vision became normal again, the scenes in front of them changed.
When Li Mu opened his eyes, he found himself in a picturesque place.
At this moment, he was standing on top of a 100-meter-high peak, and he seemed to be in a picturesque place in which the air was fresh, the flowers beautiful, birds were chirping, and streams were flowing. Spiritual animals, such as white cranes, white deer, white tigers, and leopards, rested along the distant lake in harmony.
“Is this the world in the Everlasting Heaven?”
Li Mu was a little surprised.
Guo Yuqing, Qiu Yin, Wushen, and the others were really missing. As Guo Yuqing said, they were sent to different places by the rule of law in the Everlasting Heaven.
Li Mu stood on the stone peak in meditation. It was said that there was the mystery of the fairy and demon in the Everlasting Heaven. Everyone who entered it could seize his special destiny under different routes set randomly by the Everlasting Heaven… Eh, it was as intelligent as the big data in a computer.
He jumped down from the peak and walked toward the lake.
Those white cranes and white deer seemed to have never seen a stranger, looking at Li Mu with curiosity in their original place.
“How are you? I am new here. Nice to meet you.”
Li Mu greeted them, then took off his clothes immediately beside the lake, and jumped into it to swim.
Given that those immortal sacred beasts might have not seen such a shameless creature, they all stared at Li Mu curiously.
Li Mu did not hesitate to swim naked.
After leaving Taibai County, he had no time to take a shower.
Although Li Mu’s body was already dust-free in terms of his current cultivation level, he, paying attention to hygiene, needed to regain the sense of satisfaction brought by bathing.
The lake was clear, in which white fish swam around.
Li Mu felt totally relieved.
He was in no hurry to seek an opportunity.
That was because the old faker once said that an opportunity could only be seized by accident in nature, instead of through effort.
Li Mu had two plans.
Anyway, he came to the Everlasting Heaven not for opportunities, but to save Shangguan Yuting.
Now that Jiang Qiubai said Shangguan Yuting were here, Li Mu was relieved.
That was because Guo Yuqing also said that there was not much danger here.
Li Mu swam fully and vigorously, and suddenly, a huge whirlpool appeared in the lake. Then, a giant dinosaur-like water beast rushed out from under the water, emitting a kind of powerful and brutal atmosphere unique to carnivorous creatures. The white cranes, white deer, and other spiritual animals ran away in fear, but Li Mu rushed over with joy. Soon after, he rode naked on the back of this beast, manipulating the swollen-faced beast to go back and forth in the lake.
After swimming for half an hour, Li Mu reluctantly went ashore.
Then, he was puzzled.
“Da*n, where are my clothes?”
Unexpectedly, he found that his clothes were missing.
It was quite weird.
Li Mu just felt cold, but he didn’t see any figure nearby.
“Did you steal them?” Li Mu looked at the spirit beasts.
They shook their heads as if understanding Li Mu’s words.
This was really weird.
It was impossible. Although he was very relaxed, he could sense any change by means of his mental strength. It was impossible that his clothes were stolen, unless the thieves were such powerhouses like Guo Yuqing… But why would such a master do this?
Li Mu was quite shocked.
It was embarrassing.
Some alternative clothes were stored in the carry-on jade, which was put aside along with the clothes on the shore. It seemed that he had to be naked. Fortunately, some of the more important treasures, minerals, resources, etc., were collected by Li Mu in a storage ring on his middle finger, but they could not be used to cover him up.
Li Mu made a straw skirt for himself, and vowed that if the thief were to be found, he would suffer a lot.
So, he, in a straw skirt and barefoot, walked to the distant sacred mountain sadly.
Over the next few days, Li Mu wandered through the mountains in the straw skirt, sometimes for practice, sometimes for leisure. He was like a tourist, just waiting for the opportunity.
On the fifth day, Li Mu roared on a river beach.
“F**k… even the straw skirt has been stolen. This thief is so heartless.”
Li Mu was indignant.
When he came out of the river, he found that the straw skirt was gone.
Since nothing strange had happened these days, he wasn’t very vigilant. As a result… his skirt was stolen.
Li Mu, sitting naked on a rock, began to think about this thing seriously.
Given that he had lost his clothes twice, there had to be some powerful creature peeping at him, who was at least extremely good at hiding itself. It had to be abnormal, otherwise, his clothes wouldn’t be missing.
Was this the opportunity waiting for him in the Everlasting Heaven?
Li Mu was angry.
In the end, he decided to walk naked in this primitive world, as there was no one here.
However, there was good news.
After all, the Everlasting Heaven was a land exclusive to gods and demons. The vitality of the heaven and earth within it was extremely rich. It was a more suitable place for martial arts cultivation than any other blissful and natural land in the Divine Land. Even the Dragon-assembling Pattern formed by Li Mu could be compared with it. And especially in Everlasting Heaven, the laws of all creatures were extremely clear. For warriors, they could learn more by doing less.
Therefore, based on this alone, it was reasonable that Master Xi Lang and Gu Bansheng strove to enter here.
Li Mu had only reached the top level of the Natural Realm before, he had not become a Celestial Being.
The vitality in his body had already been completely transformed into the natural qi of the Natural Realm long ago, and he laid a solid foundation in this realm. Since he deliberately suppressed himself, he didn’t enter the Celestial Being Realm. In the argument with Qiu Yin, Guo Yuqing, Xu Sheng, Dong Rui, etc., he knew the cultivation method of “the five organs” in the Celestial Being Realm, but he intuitively chose not to do this during this period of time. Instead, he chose to temper his natural qi in the Natural Realm.
The Natural Realm meant Three Flowers over Head, and one should cultivate one’s spirit, breath, and mind in this realm.
Cultivating the natural qi of a Natural Expert was actually the process of tempering the above three points.
During the days in the Everlasting Heaven, Li Mu cultivated his natural qi and tempered his own body, gradually unable to suppress himself.
He knew that he had to enter the Celestial Being Realm.
“But which of the five internal organs—heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys—should be cultivated first?”
Li Mu still hesitated.
The martial arts theory in this world represented the five major organs, any of which could be cultivated first. Different cultivation sequences meant different kinds of power. If the energy of the five major organs could be fully cultivated and be connected with each other, one could reach the peak state of the Celestial Being Realm and become a sage.
Hence, Li Mu felt that the cultivation order should have a vital impact on becoming a sage. The order was not just defined as ordinary people did, since every step was the foundation for further improvement. People in this world thought the order was all right, probably because they themselves were not very clear on this point.
Like the top nine Holy Clans, in fact, they had their own secret cultivation methods for entering the Celestial Being Realm.
However, Li Mu didn’t value their so-called secret methods.
