Chapter 497 Exorcising Evil Spirits on the Fifth Day of the First Lunar Month
Ever since he learned that Li Muyang was indeed the big boss of "Dianmi", Li Yunlong realized that his nephew had changed completely and was not the same as he remembered.
It's not as simple as it seems on the surface!
In Li Yunlong's perception, Li Muyang's cultivation level was only at the Integration Realm. However, the problem was that the calligraphy and painting that Li Muyang gave to the old man, which he clearly said he painted himself, had an artistic conception that had already exceeded the Integration Realm level! How could it be that it was only at the Integration Realm level and could help both the old man and him?
Furthermore, Li Yunlong had also inquired about the situation with his son and learned that Li Muyang's cultivation level in the game world was displayed as the Mahayana Realm. Li Yunlong was even more incredulous that his extraordinary nephew would only be at the Integration Realm!
Otherwise, it would be a bit too much!
Relying on the nation's fortune to reach the Integration Realm versus cultivating to the Integration Realm on one's own, even if there is a difference in their raw strength, Li Yunlong, at the peak of the Integration Realm, shouldn't be able to see only the superficial falsehood of Li Muyang, right?
Li Muyang was just putting on an act, creating a false facade so that others would see through it. But even this obvious facade couldn't be seen through!
That's a huge difference!
Faced with Li Yunlong's question, Li Muyang pondered for a moment, then shook his head: "It can only be understood intuitively, not explained in words."
Seeing that Li Muyang refused to speak no matter what, Li Yunlong understood and nodded: "Okay, I understand. There's a confidentiality agreement, right? Then I won't ask anymore."
(Is the situation really that serious?) Li Yunlong thought worriedly, recalling some strange situations he had recently encountered.
"It's just a matter of keeping it a secret." Li Muyang didn't want Li Yunlong to overthink things, so he could only say, "It's not that the situation is serious, but we're just waiting for the right opportunity. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up!"
Li Yunlong, having seen his share of big scenes, calmed down and was no longer nervous. However, as the eldest son of the Li family, taking care of his family was his responsibility! Moreover, he was a cadre in this great Northwest! He had a responsibility to this land and its people!
There's still no clear official statement, and Li Yunlong is getting anxious, fearing that even the authorities can't resolve the problem! He's heard about some strange things, but the problem is, aside from those that have been discovered, he hasn't noticed anything unusual around him!
The only explanation for Li Yunlong and his wife's silence, and Li Muyang's insistence that nothing was amiss, is that Li Yunlong, not one to be ungrateful, or that someone close to him, also had a problem. Therefore, they had no choice but to remain silent for fear of being exposed.
Living in a supernatural world, being exposed isn't just about actions! You might unknowingly reveal some secrets! Nothing is absolute!
"Alright, I won't ask about official matters anymore." Li Yunlong sighed with a melancholy tone, silently lit a cigarette, and leisurely continued to ask, "Then... Muyang, do you know what exactly happened to Shixuan?"
Li Muyang raised an eyebrow: "Shall we discuss this in detail?"
"It's nothing, I just overheard this kid in his room talking to someone, but the thing is he didn't turn on his phone, didn't touch the computer, and didn't use the Brain Domain game console..." Li Yunlong rambled on.
Li Muyang's lips twitched violently. His cousin's vigilance was simply too poor! He couldn't even keep it from his own father!
Of course, it cannot be ruled out that Li Shixuan never intended to hide it at all.
"Ahem, cousin...uncle, you should know about those organizations in the myriad worlds, right?" Li Muyang spread his hands helplessly and explained, "You actually joined an organization in the myriad worlds. The communication core of this organization is hidden in the sea of consciousness."
Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong's expression turned serious. He didn't say anything more, and before he knew it, he had finished a cigarette. He stubbed it out in the ashtray and then sighed, "Sigh... the child has grown up!"
He'd heard of them before, but their reputations were all terrible, each one more outrageous than the last! In the eyes of the authorities, these organizations were nothing but sources of chaos! Not a single one of them was a stable member! He never imagined his own son would fall into this trap!
“In a world of great strife, only the strong and the weak survive.” Li Muyang also sighed, “Uncle, if the world becomes too peaceful, we will find it difficult to live peacefully. The only thing we can rely on may be strength. It seems peaceful now, and we can not care at first. But when this matter becomes relevant to everyone, it will really be too late!”
"My cousin's organization has a decent reputation, much better than the others. I know some people in it, so it shouldn't be a problem to keep an eye on them. It's better than being helpless if something really happens in the future."
"And what about you?" Li Yunlong's calm eyes revealed a hint of concern: "I know your parents are not ordinary people. To be honest, I can roughly guess some things, but your situation... I really have no clue."
"It's normal that there isn't one," Li Muyang chuckled. "Because in my organization, I'm the only member in our world. If you can guess that, I'll be shocked!"
Li Yunlong laughed and said, "Alright, that's enough for you to tell me."
"This is all I have to do in my life. I'm all thanks to the country's support. I know my own limitations. I'm afraid I can't be of much help to you. But don't worry, I'll take care of things at home. Even if I can't help, at least we can't hold you back!"
Li Muyang wiped away his cold sweat, both amused and exasperated: "The situation isn't as complicated as you think... At least it's still under control for now. Never mind, I won't say anymore, it'll be soon! You'll know the general situation then!"
After ending his conversation with his nephew, Li Muyang went back to work online. He couldn't just sit around doing nothing these next few days; he was the kind of person who couldn't stay idle.
Li Yunlong also seemed unchanged. At least his conversation with Li Muyang gave him some confidence, preventing him from being as confused as before.
What officials fear most is being left in the dark! Don't be a fool!
Before we knew it, it was the Lantern Festival.
The fireworks displays in this world are even more elaborate and dazzling, after all, the methods are special. They are like animation brought to life, with fireworks in all shapes and sizes!
The family went out to join the fun, but the streets were packed with people, making it difficult to walk! It was easy to get lost in the crowd!
With great difficulty, under Li Muyang's leadership, the family managed to "fight" their way out of the crowd and successfully secure a spot in the best viewing area.
Fireworks shot into the night sky, blooming in the air and illuminating the entire night sky even more brilliantly.
"It's almost time," Li Muyang said casually, looking up at the starry sky and fireworks.
Amid the crowd and the fireworks, most of the family members didn't notice Li Muyang's words. Only Li Yunlong, who was nearby, heard Li Muyang speak and turned his head in surprise, when he felt an invisible force rising up!
Li Yunlong was all too familiar with this force!
It's the Nine Cauldrons! The Great Protectorate of China! The Nine Cauldrons Barrier!
Amid the crowd and the fireworks, very few people noticed the commotion, and even those who realized something was wrong were too late.
The Nine Cauldrons Barrier has been activated!
The power of the dragon vein of China, the power of humanity, swept across the entire country in a special form through the Nine Cauldrons. Everything indiscriminately affected everything, and every being with its own consciousness felt the force sweep over it.
But it came quickly and went quickly. Many beings with low cultivation levels mistook it for an illusion. Only those at the Nascent Soul stage and above knew that it was definitely not an illusion!
While some people were still confused about what was going on, they found that passersby around them were "melting"!
Seeing this, Li Yunlong hurriedly shielded his wife and parents with one hand, wanting to take action and eliminate the "melting" passerby on the spot.
Then, the Nine Cauldrons Barrier fully materialized across China! A red and yellow light filled the sky, the power manifested by the Dragon's Fortune! In an instant, the passersby who were still "melting" were powerless to resist and vanished at a visible speed!
"I told you, Uncle, everything is under control." Li Muyang patted Li Yunlong's shoulder with a faint smile, and Li Yunlong, who was still in a daze, finally understood.
So, the authorities wanted to completely purify and eliminate these strange monsters hiding among the Chinese people in one fell swoop through the Nine Cauldrons Barrier?
"Damn Jade Venerable! Purify the Great Dao!" Under the Nine Cauldrons Barrier, not all those who "melted" disappeared so quickly. Some managed to linger on for a little longer. There were even several unrecognizable monsters not far from Li Muyang, roaring in unison:
"Jade Venerable! You wait! You can save these mortals for a time! But you can't save them forever! Everything has an end..."
"biu!"
Li Muyang raised his hand and fired a beam of light: "Enough with the nonsense! You better not let me find your headquarters! Otherwise, we'll see who makes whom suffer!"
Anyone can say tough things!
Seeing Li Muyang easily purify the monster, Li Yunlong's eyes widened. He had encountered such monsters before and knew that ordinary methods could not eliminate them at all. At most, fire and lightning powers could temporarily deactivate them for a period of time before they would recover.
Ultimately, it's still not strong enough. Even though these monsters are only at the mortal level, their status is above the immortal level, so ordinary elemental attributes are difficult to destroy them. In fact, at least high-level elemental forces with concepts like space can have a serious impact on them, or even kill them.
However, it doesn't have a strong restraining effect.
The essential element of these monsters is "destruction". What can restrain them is not only "purification" but also "creation". Li Muyang has mastered both of these laws and has even studied the power of rules. Therefore, Li Muyang has truly become the nemesis of these destructive creatures!
It seems the Destroyer has already identified Li Muyang as the Jade Venerable who has returned, which is a good thing. It means that Li Muyang's trump cards have not been fully exposed. As for the possibility that the other party is throwing out a smokescreen... hehe!
