Chapter 510: Chapter 467 Taking Power_1
“This True Monarch overlay does have guts, daring to plead for True Monarch Baibao, is he not afraid I’ll kill him with one move.”
Xu Mu worked with his hands, amusedly speaking to Mo Wuxin who was smiling.
“How could you use Secret Skill again!”
Mo Wuxin’s face turned pink; she glared at him. Doesn’t he know how to go easy on her due to her size?
After getting used to it, she continued: “If you really kill him, the Four Seas Immortal Palace will probably collapse immediately!”
“If it collapses, just build a new one. That’s True Monarch Baibao, who came to kill you. How could you plead for me to let him go?” Xu Mu paused in his actions.
“True Monarch Baibao is a rarely seen Artifact Refiner master, it would indeed be a pity to kill him. Moreover, he was forced into this to a large extent so the fact that the other two who are very close to him pleaded for mercy is normal! And you agreed too!”
Mo Wuxin slowly rose to her feet, exhaling heavily. It took several spells to clean up.
“If you hadn’t pleaded for mercy, how would I have agreed?” Xu Mu smiled.
“If you didn’t want to let him go, you would have killed him already, why wait until now.”
Mo Wuxin uncompromisingly ripped open his thoughts.
Xu Mu had to touch his nose, indeed, he didn’t plan on killing True Monarch Baibao.
After all, killing one more or one less doesn’t make much difference to him.
But he didn’t plan to let him go either, originally he just wanted to imprison him.
However, now that True Monarch Cover came to plead for him, and Mo Wuxin spoke on his behalf, he can only let him go reluctantly, but the three others will definitely have to pay a hefty price.
This way, he won’t lose out.
At the same time, with True Monarch Baibao involved, the power of the Four Seas Immortal Palace can be more stable, avoiding too much unrest.
To him, the power of the Four Seas Immortal Palace is quite useful, not only can it provide him with a steady stream of resources, but it can also form a connection with Lu Jingkong.
With their combined forces, unless the Cluster Stars Sect deploys the Divinity Transformation Stage again, it’s ready for a showdown.
Having learned from previous lessons, the Cluster Stars Sect should not dare to make a move on him for the time being.
“Now, let’s not discuss this anymore. How’s your spiritual cultivation going?”
The same day the situation ended, Mo Wuxin had successfully condensed her Nascent Soul and come out of closed-door training.
However, due to the importance of the few previous incidents, Mo Wuxin’s breakthrough did not cause any commotion.
“What do you think? I’ve been investigated by you every day recently, where would I find the time to consolidate it?” Mo Wuxin was not in a good mood.
“Hehe! I just wanted to have another one.” Xu Mu chuckled.
A descendant born during the Nascent Soul Stage, think about how powerful it would be.
Now that people have identified Mo Wuxin’s identity, there’s no need to hide anything, and having another child wouldn’t be considered strange.
“Do you think it’s a pig, that you can have one whenever you say you want to.” Mo Wuxin couldn’t help rolling her eyes.
After going through that incident, she was no longer resistant to the idea. If a more superior descendant could really be born, she naturally wouldn’t refuse.
However, it’s pretty hard for a Nascent Soul cultivator to give birth without using special means.
“Not necessarily.” Xu Mu said mysteriously.
The other Nascent Soul already has one.
At first, he didn’t dare have one when he was inside the small world, but now that he’s out, there’s no need to worry.
“I hope so.”
Mo Wuxin didn’t know where Xu Mu got his confidence, but she didn’t bother to argue further on this issue.
“You go consolidate your cultivation. I need to retreat for a while, you will hold the fort when I’m gone.”
The situation is now stable. To deal with the Cluster Stars Sect’s next steps, he must enhance his strength as soon as possible.
“Okay!”
Xu Mu rarely joked with her. Since he said so, he must have his reasons, and Mo Wuxin didn’t ask further.
…
With Xu Mu and Mo Wuxin taking over as the Palace Master of the Four Seas Immortal Palace, the precarious Four Seas Immortal Palace, which was at risk of collapsing at any moment, quickly stabilized and started to further develop and grow.
With the presence of Xu Mu, the Immortal Slayer, the Four Seas Fairy Palace’s reputation has already yielded greater prominence than Butian Pavilion, even seems to challenge the Cluster Stars Sect.
Of course, those aware of the real situation certainly wouldn’t believe that the Four Seas Fairy Palace could compete with the Cluster Stars Sect.
But more of the lower-level practitioners, unaware of the internal relations, view the Four Seas Fairy Palace as being on par with Cluster Stars Sect.
Surrounded by a large number of lower-level practitioners, the power of the Four Seas Fairy Palace didn’t decline despite the power struggle, but instead, it grew stronger.
The Palace of Pure Heart, likewise, thrived with growing influence, becoming the actual controller of the Four Seas Fairy Palace.
It wasn’t without the inevitable transition of power, power struggles, complex plots and schemes.
However, in the view of higher-ups, this trend was unstoppable. Those who tried resisting were simply in pointless resistance.
With these changes, the Xu Family got unexpectedly drawn into the limelight among the cultivators, after all, a large number of higher-ups in the Four Seas Fairy Palace held the surname Xu which was quite evident to all.
What was even more surprising was that the Xu Family was filled with geniuses, and more than half were under a hundred years old and had achieved the Golden Pill stage.
Such revelation shocked everyone and also cast an aura of mystery over the Xu Family.
…
Three years later
Xu Mu woke up from meditation and finally fully healed his wounds.
Originally he was more severely injured physically but due to cultivating the True Body of Ten Thousand Tribulations, his physical body recovered the fastest without the need for healing Pills.
Whereas the slightly less injured Nascent Soul took him considerable time to mend. After all, it was attacked at the Divinity Transformation Stage, regaining full strength without leaving any sequelae was already considered fortunate.
Since he had recovered from his injuries, it was time to think about progressing his cultivation.
First, Xu Mu took out a large piece similar in size to a century-old tree, a greyish-white coloured spine bone.
As the section of the spine bone was presented, a faint ripple occurred in the surrounding void, much like a dragonfly touching the water.
Heaven and earth’s Spiritual Energy from all directions began unconsciously converging towards it.
An awe-inspiring pressure kept emanating from within it.
As if a deity had manifested, not allowing any sacrilegious act.
Even if it was only a fragment of its skeletal remains!
This mysterious and extraordinary skeletal bone was obtained by Xu Mu from Lu Jingkong in exchange to refine his magic artifact anew.
With Xu Mu operating the Secret Mental Secret Skill, he resisted the pressure emitted by the bone of Kun Peng, avoiding issues during the refining process. Next, he colleted Spiritual Power in his hands, streaming it into the ground. The walls made of Star Crystal Stone immediately started shimmering with a dense Formation pattern.
The interconnected Formation patterns exuding enormous power seeped deep into the ground, extracting a viscous, blood-like Underground Fire.
Sizzle!
The room temperature surged abruptly, undeniably capable of melting magic artifacts below the seventh-tier within a short period.
Whoosh!
The flames transformed into a massive Blood Lotus, encasing the Kun Peng bone, ceaselessly burning it with high-temperature flames.
“Indeed, it’s a large-scaled underground fire vein, at least ten times hotter than the medium-scaled underground fire vein under the Palace of Pure Hearts!” Xu Mu exclaimed.
The room was not a property of the Palace of Pure Hearts but a dedicated Artifact Refining room of the True Monarch, Bai Bao.
Hearing that Xu Mu wanted to reforge his magical artifact, the True Monarch, Bai Bao, enthusiastically made it available.
In addition to concealing a massive underground fire vein, this refining room was made from exquisitely selected materials. Star Crystal Stone was used which was not only heat-resistant but also well-insulated and it even harnessed star power. It provided a safer and comfortable environment during the process.
Simultaneously, it was equipped with numerous Spirit Gathering Arrays and conversion formations and connected with the surrounding Spirit Veins, supplying abundant and pure Spiritual Energy, making it not only a first-rate refining room but also an excellent cultivation room.
A Nascent Soul Cultivator who had lived for a few hundred years simply had a deeper foundation than Xu Mu.
“The True Monarch, Bai Bao, despite being in the early stages of the Nascent Soul, has such an extravagant cultivation room. The one owned by the Three Supreme Elders must be even better. I must find a way to test it!” Xu Mu secretly pondered.
The Three Supreme Elders have already died and the Four Seas Fairy Palace was under his control. Naturally, everything belonged to him. Aside from the resources he could carry away, such as spirit veins, the cultivation room, spirit field and other immovable resources, were also a crucial part.
One might even say, these immovable resources were of utmost importance,
The floating wealth would be exhausted once used whereas these could continue providing resources endlessly.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
Deeply suppressing his thoughts, Xu Mu focused on refining the Kun Peng bone.
