Raising the spiritual insects in front of him made Luo Mu complain incessantly. After Plum Blossom Snake laid the snake eggs, Luo Mu decisively gave up hatching them. Plum Blossom Snake was only a top-level monster beast. For the current Luo Mu, the effect was already very small, so of course Luo Mu would not choose to hatch it.

Before leaving, Luo Mu wanted to go to Ancient Tomb to see if White Jade Ant could break its restriction. After thinking about it, Luo Mu gave up. In order to do this. Whether White Jade Ant can break the ban is still a matter of two minds. Before he is not sure of breaking the ban, Luo Mu does not want to cause trouble to avoid exposing Ancient Tomb.

For Luo Mu, the harvest this time was not small, and he was very satisfied. However, when he thought about Jinxiu City's upcoming return, Luo Mu's face turned gloomy.

On the way here, they were intercepted and killed by Bai Lin's men, which Luo Mu could vividly remember. Presumably Bai Lin should have known a little bit about the demise of A-Da and A-Er. Along the way, Luo Mu was guessing what kind of monks Bai Lin would send to kill him.

Luo Mu's first reaction was that Bai Lin would send someone to assassinate him again. Why did Bai Lin want to kill him? Although Luo Mu didn't know the details, he also guessed that Xiao Ling'er was closely related to it.

However, Luo Mu is not afraid. Now let's not talk about Luo Mu's own strength, let's talk about the strength of five White Jade Ant Level 3 Mid-Tier, which is not something Bai Lin can deal with.

As long as monk Foundation Establishment Realm doesn't come, Luo Mu won't have the slightest fear.

Foundation Establishment Realm monks can be regarded as a rare type in Jinxiu City. As for the Jinxiu Academy, there are only a few monks in the Foundation Establishment Realm. They are all formal disciples of the Wanfa Sect, and their status is no different from ordinary monks.

Take Alchemy Department of Luo Mu as an example. There is only one Instructor Han monk in the Foundation Establishment Realm. The other departments also have only one instructor. Like Instructor Han, they also have the same cultivation level as Foundation Establishment Realm.

This also shows that the status of the monks of the Foundation Establishment Realm is extraordinary, and their number is even rarer in Jinxiu City. Therefore, Luo Mu does not believe that Bai Lin can invite the monks of the Foundation Establishment Realm to deal with him.

The result was just as Luo Mu thought, Luo Mu returned to Jinxiu City safely. Not only was he not intercepted by the Foundation Establishment Realm monks on the way, but not even one of the Qi Refining Stage monks was found, which made Luo Mu feel strange.

Luo Mu couldn't think of the reason, and he didn't bother to think about it. Since no one bothered him like a fly, Luo Mu couldn't ask for it. Luo Mu, who was in a good mood, went directly to his store.

More monsters were killed this time than before, and the materials Luo Mu must of course be cleaned up carefully. In addition to the monster meat being used to feed the spiritual insects, the materials on the monsters, whether they are used for refining weapons or elixirs, to Luo Mu, they are all precious Spirit Stone!

However, when Luo Mu appeared at the door of his shop, he immediately looked at everything in front of him with anger on his face, and his face became ferocious because of his anger.

"Damn it!" Looking at the completely collapsed shop in front of him, Luo Mu clenched his fists tightly, the veins on his forehead popped out with a look of evil intent, and he was extremely angry in his heart.

"No wonder no one intercepted and killed me on the road. It turns out that guy even destroyed my place of residence!" Without thinking, Luo Mu knew who was involved in this matter. Except for Bai Lin, who had a life-and-death feud with him, Luo Mu could never imagine that anyone else would do this.

Luo Mu was so angry that he smiled, a green light flashed in his eyes, and then he revealed a cold murderous intention.

Jinxiu City does not allow monks to fight. At the same time, it is illegal to destroy all buildings in the city. However, the rules are only binding on low-level monks. For monks with more difficult backgrounds or powerful ones, the rules sometimes become an accomplice.

Bai Lin is certainly the kind of person with a hard backstage, at least that is the case with Jinxiu City.

After taking a few deep breaths, Luo Mu's face returned to calmness, as if he had forgotten the matter. In fact, this was when Luo Mu became truly angry and frightened.

It took Low-grade Spirit Stone to hire a monk who made a living building houses in Jinxiu City, and he restored Luo Mu's shop to its original state in half a day, which made Luo Mu marvel at the magic of the other party's skills. In just half a day, he got ten yuan Spirit Stone, which was quite easy.

It was so easy to earn away ten pieces of Spirit Stone in his hand, Luo Mu couldn't help but feel a little tempted.

Rebuilding the store was rather cumbersome. When the moon climbed high in the sky, Luo Mu finally finished everything. The furniture in the entire store was replaced with new ones, which cost Luo Mu a lot of spiritual stones.

Luo Mu sat cross-legged, shook Storage Bag violently, a ray of light flashed, and a large number of various monster materials appeared in front of Luo Mu. The destruction of the store made Luo Mu feel quite bad, but after seeing these materials, a smile appeared on Luo Mu's face.

This is the fruit of two months of hard work!

Luo Mu kept what he thought were the best materials and planned to use them to refine magic weapons. Although the quality of the remaining materials was not bad, they were relatively inferior to those left behind. Luo Mu planned to sell them, which could fetch a lot of money Spirit Stone.

If you want to use it, of course you want the best one!

As for Luo Mu leaving the materials to prepare the weapon, the first choice is of course Qu Yi, but Luo Mu is still going to take a look this time. If Qu Yi can really refine the high-level magical weapon, then Luo Mu will not hesitate to hand over all the materials he has collected to the other party, and let him refine it freely.

If Qu Yi fails to refine the upper-level magic weapon this time and cannot break through the bottleneck in front of him, Luo Mu will still send materials to Qu Yi for refining, but of course the quantity will not be too much.

Asking a refiner to refine a magic weapon is ridiculously expensive, and there is also a failure rate. There are many refiners in Jinxiu City, but none of them can become masters of the refinement. Many masters in the refinement shops have a success rate of refinement not as good as Qu Yi. At least Qu Yi has refined an intermediate top quality magic weapon for Luo Mu.

There are really not many weapon refiners among Jinxiu City who can refine such a quality magical weapon, just a handful.

Although there is a risk in handing over the materials to Qu Yi for refining, this risk is already quite small compared to the weapon refiners in the city. Besides, what can you do without risk?

Once the refining is successful, the value cannot be compared with that of the refining materials. Luo Mu fully understands the truth, so he hands over the materials to the other party for refining without hesitation. Otherwise, how could Luo Mu, who regards Spirit Stone as his life, hand over his things to others so easily.

After the materials were sorted, Luo Mu took out spirit medicine and poisonous weeds from Storage Bag and processed them...

It wasn't until late at night that Luo Mu cleaned everything up, then released the spiritual insect alert, and drank a bottle of "Bone Melting Liquid". Now that the toxins in Luo Mu's body had been completely eliminated, how could Luo Mu, who wanted to quickly improve his cultivation, still do it, and did not forget to drink a bottle of "Bone Melting Liquid" when adjusting his breath.

As soon as Bone Melting Liquid fell into his stomach, Luo Mu's whole body reacted immediately, and his bones froze, as if they were about to melt. If an ordinary monk encountered this situation, he would be extremely panicked. But Luo Mu was different. This was not the first time he had taken poison. He just frowned slightly at the situation and did not take it too seriously. Instead, he calmed down and controlled Poison Spirit Power to refine the power of Bone Melting Liquid.

With the operation of Luo Mu Poison Spirit Power, a faint green mist emerged from Luo Mu's body. The five White Jade Ant that were originally close to Luo Mu, when the green smoke emerged, like a mouse seeing a cat, turned into five white lights and far away from Luo Mu.

The three Octagonal Spike were just the opposite. Not only did they not distance themselves from Luo Mu, they instead climbed onto Luo Mu's shoulders, where the poisonous mist was the thickest.

Thirteen Plum Blossom Snake's body was too big, so Luo Mu was placed on the first floor as a gatekeeper. Not to mention Plum Blossom Snake's strength, with its huge size, ordinary Qi Refining Stage monks would be shocked if they were not prepared, let alone at night.

There's nothing better than using them to guard the door.

One night passed, when Dawn raised his head, Luo Mu also opened his eyes, a green light flashed, and his eyes returned to normal. Luo Mu stood up, straightened his clothes, and then began to wash.

Today is the day that Instructor Han agreed to teach. After two months, Luo Mu has only listened to his class for half a day, but he has benefited a lot. The two-month appointment has arrived, and of course Luo Mu will not miss it.
