Chapter 231
Chapter 231: Move Aside! I’ll Do It!
After Zu Yuanji finished speaking, the Tiger Roar Army soldiers quickly finished their grilled meat one after another.
Only about ten minutes passed before Li Mu and Wang Yinhuan walked over side by side from the distance.
Thirty Mute Women followed behind them.
The reason Li Mu had not rushed over immediately earlier was that he had been helping the Mute Women collectively break through to the Profound Rank.
At the same time, he was also in the final crucial stage of revising his fourth set of paper-format cultivation arts.
During this period of time, Li Mu had truly poured his heart and soul into the Mute Women.
The Mute Women had not disappointed him either. In less than two short months, they had all broken through to the Profound Rank one after another.
Even the few fools ranked at the very bottom had broken through.
Mute One through Mute Six had even broken through to the Profound Rank Second Grade.
Moreover, Li Mu had revised those four sets of cultivation arts again and again.
He had poured just as much effort into them. Each one was simple and easy to understand, yet its strength was comparable to special-grade cultivation arts, or even higher.
They were absolutely cultivation arts that were extremely suitable for widespread promotion.
He could say without the slightest exaggeration that once these sets of cultivation arts were spread, they would absolutely become the mainstream for four attack methods: saber, spear, whip, and fist.
This place was a mountainous region.
The forest was not dense.
As soon as Li Mu appeared with Wang Yinhuan and the Mute Women, the Tiger Roar Army soldiers who saw him quickly stood up.
They saluted and shouted loudly, “Overall Commander!”
Even the other soldiers farther away, who had not seen him yet, stood up one after another and shouted loudly.
For a time, cries of “Overall Commander” rang out without end.
Every Tiger Roar Army soldier’s eyes shone with worship.
Even though Li Mu did not often appear in the Tiger Roar Army, he was its absolute core.
Or rather, he was its totem.
Seeing that the Tiger Roar Army was barbecuing, Li Mu smiled and told everyone to continue.
Then, he arrived at the scene where the Mystic Turtle’s corpse lay.
A pile of equipment had also been placed around it.
The people from the Research Institute did not know Li Mu, so they all stepped aside and opened a path for him.
They had only heard of the man before them.
But they had never heard that this man was a sex fiend...
Why were there so many beautiful women following him?
And they were beautiful in such a uniform way!
Aside from Wang Yinhuan, who was especially beautiful at Li Mu’s side, the other thirty girls were all peerless beauties.
Most importantly, their height, measurements, and figures were all perfectly aligned.
The most crucial point was that every single one of these girls had an astonishingly powerful cultivation.
Among the Mute Women, there was also a mountain-like figure following along: Lu Chenfeng.
Lu Chenfeng had been following beside Mute Nine this entire time.
Ever since Lu Chenfeng and Zhang Zhiwei arrived at Li Mu’s villa more than a month ago, Lu Chenfeng had taken a fancy to Mute Nine.
He had been pursuing her madly.
However, the Mute Women had no such thoughts at all. Their hearts were set entirely on increasing their strength.
Lu Chenfeng planned to move her with his sincerity.
He had been trying for a month and a half now.
He had not moved her in the slightest.
Song Chuhe, Zhang Zhiwei, and the others walked over.
Song Chuhe introduced Li Mu to everyone from the Research Institute.
Only then did the people from the Research Institute come forward and greet Li Mu one after another.
The first thing Li Mu said when he came closer was, “This thing seems rather interesting.”
The current Li Mu was already at the Profound Rank Third Grade.
And this was the result of Li Mu not cultivating deliberately.
Over the past two months, he had occasionally gone to kill some Profound Rank monsters and had accumulated two hundred and sixty thousand Triumph Points.
All of them were being saved for the Heaven-and-Earth Manifestation.
After Li Mu gained the Samadhi True Fire and could refine away drug resistance, the usable effect of the Body-Casting Golden Pill had practically doubled.
Right now, Li Mu was unbelievably tough.
Even so, when Li Mu approached the turtle shell, his abilities were suppressed to roughly the level of the Yellow Rank Ninth Grade Peak.
“We have tried many methods, but we simply cannot open it,” a male researcher from the Research Institute said.
Li Mu was just about to say something.
Lu Chenfeng rolled up his sleeves.
“I’ll do it!”
After saying that, Lu Chenfeng did not forget to raise his brows at Mute Nine.
That expression seemed to say, “Watch closely. I’ll show you something.”
Mute Nine’s small eyes drifted upward slightly, and she rolled her eyes in a way that was neither too obvious nor too subtle.
She really did not know what kind of stubborn weight this fellow had swallowed.
She had already told him clearly that she would never fall in love in this lifetime.
Yet he still refused to give up.
It had caused her sisters to impeach her every day.
Lu Chenfeng stepped forward.
First, he clenched his fist and pounded the turtle shell twice with heavy thuds.
Then, he planted one foot against the lower edge of the head opening in the turtle shell and gripped the upper edge with both hands.
He suddenly exerted his strength.
“Open!”
Lu Chenfeng’s body was already like a small mountain, and when he abruptly unleashed his power, his swelling muscles became somewhat terrifying.
The turtle shell was violently shaken up and down by him.
Everyone from the Research Institute, as well as the Tiger Roar Army soldiers watching nearby, had their pupils contract.
This was something that dozens of people could barely pull together.
Yet Lu Chenfeng could shake it alone?
However, veins bulged across Lu Chenfeng’s body, but the turtle shell still did not move at all.
Zhang Zhiwei stood at the side.
No one knew where he had gotten a handful of melon seeds.
CRACK.
He cracked one open and said in a lukewarm tone, “What is wrong? Did you not eat?”
“There is grilled meat over there...”
Lu Chenfeng instantly shouted in anger.
A burst of green light suddenly surged wildly around his entire body.
“Open!”
BOOM!
With Lu Chenfeng’s furious roar, both of his feet stepped onto the lower edge of the head opening.
The surrounding space instantly began to buzz and tremble.
Some of the Research Institute personnel who were standing close immediately felt as though a thousand-pound burden had been pressed onto them.
Many of them went weak in the knees and almost knelt.
“Step back!” Li Mu instructed the people from the Research Institute.
Only then did the Research Institute personnel find a way out and retreat more than ten meters away one after another.
The clothing around Lu Chenfeng’s arms burst apart.
His knotted muscles were like solid rock, and his bulging veins coiled like little snakes.
Powerful shockwaves scraped away layer after layer of earth from the ground and hurled it outward.
The ferocious Gang Wind blew the surrounding people until they swayed and stumbled.
Lu Chenfeng’s entire body was submerged in green light, and his roar shook heaven and earth.
It continued for more than twenty seconds.
Only then did the fierce Gang Wind stop.
The entire scene fell silent.
Lu Chenfeng stood in front of the turtle shell, panting like an ox.
Only Li Mu, Zhang Zhiwei, and a few others moved closer to take a look.
CRACK.
The sound of Zhang Zhiwei cracking another melon seed rang out, and he said indifferently, “Useless thing...”
Lu Chenfeng also panted heavily as he inspected the front and back.
There really had not been the slightest change.
This thing was truly terrifying.
Wang Yinhuan gently tugged Li Mu’s arm and said, “I want to try too.”
Li Mu smiled dotingly.
“All right.”
Wang Yinhuan immediately rubbed her fair, tender little hands together in excitement.
During this period, Li Mu had mainly been farming, refining pills, and taking the Mute Women into seclusion.
While Wang Yinhuan followed Li Mu into seclusion, she had also gone with him to search for Profound Rank monsters.
She had likewise broken through to the Profound Rank First Grade.
However, Greedy Snake had already reached the Profound Rank Third Grade by devouring monsters.
Although Wang Yinhuan was research-oriented, she had never had a chance to properly test Greedy Snake in actual combat.
Seeing Li Mu nod, Wang Yinhuan immediately summoned Greedy Snake.
At this moment, Greedy Snake was already completely different from how it had been at the beginning.
Its body was forty meters long.
Its girth was like a heavy truck.
On its mottled, armor-scaled python body, there were four sharp webbed spines running through its entire length.
Once they spread open, they were like four iron saws, and each spine was as long as a forearm.
The giant python head was covered in dense scales.
At the top of its head was a small red area that was sunken and soft. That was where Wang Yinhuan stood.
As soon as Greedy Snake appeared, it easily swept down more than a dozen giant trees nearby.
This time, the people from the Research Institute did not need Li Mu’s reminder.
They all retreated more than thirty meters away.
Greedy Snake came before the turtle shell.
First, it used its tail to strike the turtle shell more than a dozen times.
The turtle shell was nearly smashed into the ground.
Yet it still did not move at all.
Greedy Snake pressed the tip of its tail against the turtle shell, then fired three tail needles in rapid succession like a nail gun.
Bang, bang, bang.
It only left three pale marks that were much shallower than Zhang Zhiwei’s mark.
Even Li Mu became interested.
“Greedy Snake, move aside!”
Li Mu stepped forward as he spoke.
Greedy Snake reluctantly slithered away.
Li Mu first took out the Ghostface Cudgel and tapped the turtle shell.
The turtle shell immediately produced several muffled thuds.
And yet, with just those casual taps from Li Mu, the turtle shell was actually knocked into violent shaking...
