Chapter 615 There Are Also Some Friends

However, Tang Qianyan shook his head and said, “That I cannot tell you. Maybe your seniors are still doing business with the Immortal Net and so are in contact with us. They may even be active on the Immortal Net. However, given my status, I don’t have the clearance to get in touch with them. Even if I know how to contact them, under the rules of the Immortal Net, with your current cultivation, you can’t access that kind of classified information.”

“Er!”

Li Mu felt overwhelmingly embarrassed.

He decided to take back what he had said before.

This Mr. Tang didn’t know anything about the art of speech. Otherwise, how could he speak so tactlessly?

He was clearly saying that Li Mu was still too weak, and he was far from being able to get that kind of information.

His words were really hurtful as if he directly stabbed Li Mu in the chest.

However, to Li Mu’s surprise, the statuses of Lao Zi, Li Bai, and others were so high that even Tang Qianyan was not allowed to contact them personally.

This indirectly proved that their strength and cultivation were far beyond Li Mu’s imagination, at least far beyond the General Realm.

The reason was conspicuous. Li Mu, who had been recognized as a cultivator in the General Realm, was contacted by Tang Qianyan. It proved that Tang Qianyan absolutely had the clearance to deal with those in the General Realm.

“As for other information and files, if within the scope of your privilege, you can find them on the Immortal Net. You just need to pay the fee.” As Tang Qianyan said this, he stepped back and slowly faded away from the page of the Immortal Net. He then added, “In the future, if you have any special needs, you can contact me by sending me private messages through the VIP Net Card. Of course, you also need to pay for that service. I hope that we can both enjoy a cooperative relationship.”

After that, his image disappeared completely.

Li Mu opened his mouth to speak. But before he could ask anything, Tang Qianyan already vanished.

“He left really fast.”

Li Mu complained in private.

But Tang Qianyan emphasized twice that Li Mu had to pay a fee for the service. Li Mu figured that Tang Qianyan clearly meant to tell him that the ancient secret about Earth he disclosed to him was on the house, and he deliberately reminded Li Mu to remember this favor… Why did Li Mu feel that Mr. Tang had gotten his art of speech back again?

Anyway, this conversation with Tang Qianyan was still of great significance to Li Mu.

For one thing, Li Mu learned more about the power of the Immortal Net. Second, he told Li Mu that the ancient sages from Earth were probably still hanging in there in the universe. That brought Li Mu to a revelation that he might have pictured things too darkly before. Now, the situation the “sinners” were facing was no longer as difficult as before. Most cultivators in the universe gradually had developed a little tolerance for the sinners. They no longer attempted to kill the sinners the moment they ran into them.

Of course, the progress was rather limited.

As Tang Qianyan had said, the interstellar cultivators’ rejection of the sinners had switched from the hatred in the past to today’s habitual suppression. To be exact, the Earth residents should no longer be called sinners but scourges. The cultivators were more worried about whether the appearance of the sinners would bring about a great disaster like what happened in ancient times.

It would be very hard to change this situation.

For example, after Li Mu smashed the hellish three-headed dog in the General Realm, few people in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region dared to provoke him anymore.

But that did not mean the cultivators would not scold Li Mu behind his back from now on, nor could it be assured that they would not treat Li Mu as a “scourge”.

There were some things that could not be altered by strength.

Li Mu heaved with a sigh and logged out from the Immortal Net.

He decided not to check the Immortal Net again for the time being.

He had tried to buy the Great Reset Elixir before. But with the Net Card he purchased from the black market, he had no privilege to search and buy this kind of elixir. He was afraid that the elixir was not an ordinary commodity. Therefore, Li Mu decided to wait until the VIP Net Card of the Immortal Net arrived and his privilege was expanded.

As for the uproar on the forum of the Big Events in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, Li Mu decided not to care about it for now.

Only the weak quarreled.

The strong, instead, would never waste time arguing.

‘I’d better think about how to contact Brother Guo first.”

Li Mu took a look at Ding Yi, who was lying unconsciously on the stone bed, and suddenly felt that this “snooper” was actually quite important to him.

If Ding Yi was sober now, he would probably be able to find out Guo Yuqing’s whereabouts in less than an hour.

But now, Li Mu had to figure it out by himself.

That day, he left in a hurry. Initially, he thought that he would catch up with Brother Guo and the other girl soon after he finished off the chasing troops. Therefore, Li Mu did not ask the girl named Zuo Qingqing where the secret warehouse of the All-directional Star Bureau was. Now, being on his own, it was hard to find its location. After all, it was a secret warehouse. If it was so easy to locate, it would have long been discovered by the people of the Tianyi Palace. Then, how could they have hidden in that place for nearly two months?

After contemplating it for quite a while, Li Mu decided to stay in the Immortal Pavilion and wait.

The news that Li Mu was in the Immortal Pavilion was already well-known. The whole Star Wind City had learned about it. After all, he was now a big shot with a prominent aura, a bad*ss who had smashed a fierce cultivator in the General Realm. All parties were keeping an eye on him. So, his whereabouts were quite easy to learn about. If Brother Guo heard what happened outside, he would definitely come to him soon. It was definitely much easier for them to find Li Mu than Li Mu to find them.

A day passed in the blink of an eye.

The service of the Immortal Net was amazingly efficient.

That evening, Li Mu received his own VIP Net Card.

It was a palm-sized silver crystal plate, as thick as a finger. Its two sides were engraved with strange inscriptions. It was almost impossible to detect the patterns of these inscriptions with the naked eye. Li Mu felt that it was like a CPU chip.

He had to admit that this was perhaps the most advanced tactical deployment composed of Taoist figures that he had seen in the martial arts civilization.

After he injected his natural qi into the plate, a series of wonderous images slowly unfolded in Li Mu’s mind.

Compared with the image displayed by the Net Card bought from the black market, the picture shown by this Net Card was more vivid and lively, as if a brand new world was slowly unfurling in front of him.

Li Mu saw the new entrances to different functions.

Message notices constantly popped out in the user center. Large numbers of copper-colored fairy crystals poured in every second.

Countless people had paid to read Li Mu’s last post.

“Tut-tut, these cultivators really have a strong sense of curiosity.”

As soon as Li Mu took a look at the money in his account, he was once again staggered.

In just half a day, he had managed to swindle a fortune worth 10 gold-colored fairy crystals from the rubbish post he had posted. This way to make money was even easier than rubbing the back. Such a fortune was something that many low-level cultivators would have to work for a lifetime to earn.

Back on Earth, one of the online celebrities with a small fan base once posted a pay-per-view photo of himself on Weibo. Overnight, more than 80,000 people paid for the photo, and he earned nearly five million yuan. It was a fortune that many people couldn’t earn in their entire lives. At that time, Li Mu sighed with emotion that those crazy fans were really intimidating.

But now, in comparison, the cultivators who were as high-ranking as immortals in the eyes of the Earth people were actually almost as silly as those crazy fans.

In addition to the notice of the fairy crystals entering his account, Li Mu also noted that there was a very eye-catching private message in his user center.

He clicked on the private message to find that it was an official explanation issued by the Immortal Net.

After reading the message, Li Mu finally realized that in addition to enabling him to log into the Immortal Net and enjoy all the services the Immortal Net provided and do online shopping, the new Net Card could also be used as something similar to a bank card. With this card, Li Mu could extract fairy crystals from the major trading companies, financing entities, and banks in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region. He could also swipe the card to pay the merchants and shop owners in the major main cities on the major upper-class planets.

“So this card functions as a bank card and the Alipay, doesn’t it?”

Li Mu opened his mouth in surprise.

“Bravo. Immortal Net.”

“I really shouldn’t underrate the penetration of the martial arts civilization into cultivators’ daily life. It’s not any bit less than the penetration of the technology civilization on Earth, is it?”

After familiarizing himself with his new privileges, Li Mu began to search for information about the Great Reset Elixir.

The privileges of General Realm cultivators were indeed far more extensive than those in the Worm Realm and the Mortal Realm. Li Mu found one on sale as soon as he entered the name of the elixir into the searching engine.

“Great Reset Elixir, a seventh-grade detoxify and energy-restoring elixir. It’s worth five gold-colored fairy crystals. Our shop only has three in stock. Place the order now if you want them.”

That was what Li Mu got after searching on the page of a shop on the Immortal Net called the Living Dead Temple.

From all aspects of evaluation, the credit rating of the Living Dead Temple was quite high. Plus, it was already a ten-thousand-year-old shop, which meant it was trustworthy.

Without any hesitation, Li Mu paid the whole sum and bought all the three Great Reset Elixirs, even though a single one would be enough to cure Ding Yi. Given that the function of this kind of elixir was quite extraordinary, and the Living Dead Temple would need some time to produce another batch, this kind of elixir was quite rare. Li Mu thought that he would often have to face danger in the interstellar Jianghu, so he bought the extra ones just in case.

Anyway, he was rich now.

Then, Li Mu tried to search for some information about the sinners. Many pieces of relevant information came out, yet most of them charged a fee to view.

Having paid for some and read the results, Li Mu found that it was basically the same as what Tang Qianyan had said. There were also a word or two about Lao Zi, Li Bai, and others, but nothing significant was found. The more detailed content was confidential. Even if Li Mu paid, he couldn’t read it. Perhaps it was because, as Tang Qianyan had told him, that Li Mu had yet had the privilege to access such information.

So, he could only give it up for now.

However, Li Mu found some unexpected news, which quite astounded him.

It turned out that on the Bitter Star, when the nine sects fought against the Mount Shu Sect, a big war also broke out near the Bitter Star. It was a battle between the future leaders and disciples of the major sects in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, who went to the Bitter Star world to reinforce the nine sects, as well as some mysterious masters, and that “Celestial Master” and his men. It was also due to the intercept of the “Celestial Master” and his force that the four cities, three sects, and two families on the Bitter Star did not get help from outer space and were eventually defeated by Li Mu.

This matter had been kept in secret.

The ordinary cultivators at large in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region didn’t know about it at all.

After reading the information about it, Li Mu couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.

So, there was such an event behind the scenes at that time.

If it wasn’t for the obstruction of the Celestial Master and the others, the final result of the so-called battle between the decent and the devil on the Bitter Star definitely wouldn’t be the same.

It was no wonder that when that Celestial Master was fighting the Dharma-laksana Projection of the mining slave, he told Li Mu that this was the second time that Li Mu had impressed him. It meant that the Celestial Master probably knew everything that had happened on the Bitter Star. And in fact, it was he and his friends who had secretly assisted Li Mu and helped the Mount Shu Sect on the Bitter Star through a tribulation.

At that time, Li Mu once complained about why the Mount Shu Sect was isolated, while the nine sects had help from outer space, such as the girl in the black gauze… It turned out that it was not the case.

This revelation made Li Mu excited again.

This showed that in addition to Lao Zi, Li Bai, and the other ancient sages from Earth, the Mount Shu Sect still had others to turn to and was not isolated in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region at all.

This reminded Li Mu of something Tang Qianyan had said.

“Your seniors have once amazed the universe for a period of time. They’ve made enemies as well as friends.”

“Friends. What such a precious word! Especially for sinners!”
