Chapter 280: Entering the city

After a long time, Li Mu woke up from his vexation.

He accepted his fate.

Basic knowledge then!

Let’s start with literacy!

Soon, Li Mu discovered another problem.

What about after he could read?

Half a month later, Li Mu signed in continuously.

What he got was still a pile of trash.

“Ruins are ruins. Sigh, I can’t get anything good. I guess the system only got a little reward because it saw that this is an ancient land.”

He climbed up from the big rock.

Li Mu looked up at the starry sky.

“Where are the formations and prohibitions that rule the world?”

After thinking about it carefully, he realized that there weren’t any.

Formations and restrictive pills were made by humans.

The most powerful Xuantian Sect among the humans, apart from a few places, had strolled through everything else.

It wasn’t a big deal even if they had strolled through everything.

There were all sorts of profound and incomprehensible prohibitive formations everywhere.

Li Mu couldn’t enter many cave abodes even if he wanted to.

However, if he wanted to break these formations and prohibitions, he had to understand these profound formations.

The formations and prohibitions that Li Mu had obtained were too basic compared to the prohibitions in the Xuantian Sect.

Humans could understand some of the basics.

It was just like the people in his previous life who knew how to add, subtract, multiply, and divide as well as simple symbols. It was too common.

The difference between them was that their brains were more flexible and they could calculate these things in a short time. The logic of the calculation methods used was almost the same.

Whether it was speed calculation, the old formula, or other calculation methods, the logic was the same.

His prohibitions could trap other people who did not understand the prohibitive formations and also those who were slow in calculation and kept making mistakes.

If he were to face the more profound and incomprehensible logic of functional calculations, he would need more knowledge.

Without basic accumulation, it was almost impossible to understand the relationship between the runes.

Fortunately, Li Mu could understand the basic logic of this thing.

Every rune was a symbol, representing a kind of Heaven Path.

It was the same as words.

A word was a rule.

To understand a single word, the meaning would be very vague to many people.

If several words were combined, the meaning would be more precise.

The word “peace” is a rule, and the word “calm” is another rule.

When they were combined, the rule should be clearer. But the combination of the two rules is still very vague.

The universe is the meaning of everything that exists, and the world represents countries and people that exist. However, the two had differences. The universe refers to everything that exists and the world refers to the beings that had existed on the planet.

Those two can not be put together.

Two different symbols can not be put together.

When a person dies, they could die in many different ways.

Death is the same but there were too many different ways to do so.

Each kind of death represented a rule.

The logic in it was also different.

A simple death from emptiness would have different results when encountering the five elements.

If something encountered a certain rule, the result would definitely be different.

Chinese medicine practitioners gave different people different medicines for the same illness.

A simple cold would determine whether it was a regular cold, cold due to heat, clear mucus, or thick mucus.

The foundation of the formation was the same.

The more profound the formation was, the more it had its own method of calculation, just like mathematics.

It also had the same dialectical logic as Chinese medicine practitioners.

It was like the octal system and a restriction system of traditional carpentry.

It had to use the same method of calculation whenever it encountered any sign or rule.

“Sigh, I don’t have such a fate!”

After staying in the ruins of Muyang City for another month, he still didn’t get what he wanted. Li Mu decided to go around and see if any humans knew about formation in the world.

“Before I travel around the world, it’s time to bring back a few ladies. After so many years, their bodies should have matured!”

If he didn’t take them off now, he didn’t know who would take them off.

But if he took them off…

Four!

Which man could stand it?

Not four in batches, but four at a time!

It would be too harmful.

It might even kill him.

A few days later, Li Mu appeared in the sky above the small city.

His divine consciousness scanned the small city.

“What a bunch of goblins!”

The current small city could no longer be described as a small city.

On the outskirts of the small city, an even larger outer city had been built.

It was completely a large city.

And that wasn’t all, outside the outer city, there was a simple enclosure.

Everything within sight was a bustling scene.

The Liu family and the Zhou family had occupied quite a large amount of property in this city.

“Oh? The head of the Liu family has already become a man.”

After thinking about it, it had already been several decades, and the male members of the Liu family had already grown up.

In Li Mu’s vision, the four women’s cultivation achievement had already reached the peak of the Perfected Person.

Liu Xiu’s cultivation achievement was slightly higher than the peak of the Perfected Person, and the other three women had just reached the Perfected Person.

“They’re already very powerful!”

Li Mu flew into the sky above the courtyard where Liu Xiu and the other women were.

He sat down cross-legged.

His divine consciousness landed on the women, slowly appreciating them.

In the small courtyard’s cultivation room, the women were all cultivating with all their might.

Everything was at a bottleneck.

Li Mu’s figure flashed, appearing at a stall by the street. He bought some snacks and returned to the courtyard, savoring them carefully.

The fragrance soon filled the entire courtyard.

Ba Ji.

Li Mu licked his lips.

Fragrant!

It was so fragrant.

He turned around and glanced at the training room. The few women were still immersed in their cultivation.

“They’ve all grown up! They are not even tempted by delicacies anymore?”

After eating, he threw the bone bamboo skewers to the side. Li Mu walked out of the courtyard and ran to the street.

The street was more prosperous than before, and there were many more snacks on the street.

Liu Xiu and the others must have wandered around these places countless times. They were probably tired of wandering around!

In the training room.

After Li Mu left, the girls woke up.

“I think I smelled a fragrance just now?”

“I smelled it too! It doesn’t seem like it’s time to eat now!”

“Our Liu family is so big, and the kitchen is several miles away from us. The people living here are all experts, so they have already stopped eating.”

“Don’t think so much, hurry up and cultivate.”

“No, I have to go out and take a look,” Xu Fang said.

In a city hundreds of miles away.

A group of men and women walked into the huge city and curiously looked at everything in the city.

This group of people was like the orcs who had lived in the countryside for a long time entering the city for the first time.

They had to look at every corner carefully.

“It doesn’t look very different from the style of the East Continent.”

Liu Wei looked around. Other than curiosity, there wasn’t much that surprised her.

They were both people, and the same street was lined with shops on both sides.

Standing on this street, there was no sense of foreign land.

“You went to Muyang City in the East Continent. Everything in Muyang City is the same here. The cities around Muyang City are all influenced by Muyang City, and their styles are similar,” Liu Yu explained.

“Let’s go and find a restaurant to eat and listen to the story of this world,” Liu An said.

The others looked at Xu Xiao.

Xu Xiao frowned and said, “I don’t know the situation here either. Let’s slowly understand it!”

He didn’t know the situation here.

It was also his first time entering the city.

Liu An glanced at the uneasy Xu Xiao and said, “There are so many of us. Even a restaurant can’t fit all of us. I think we should split up. Every restaurant has people. Half a day later, we will gather at the city gate and summarize the information we have gathered.”
