Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Chapter 511: Chapter 468: Advance to Late-stage Nascent Soul_1

In the blink of an eye, half a year passed by. With Xu Mu’s unrelenting efforts, the Kun Peng skeleton finally melted. After a few more months of refining, it was transformed into a fist-sized gray liquid.

Xu Mu spat out his lifebound magic artifact, the Void Dark Pearl, into which the gray bone liquid was integrated. He then infused a series of spells to perfect the formation within it.

By the time he had completely refined it, a year had already passed.

While it had consumed a considerable amount of his time and energy, he immediately sensed the differences once he integrated it back into his body.

“The capacity for spiritual energy has at least tripled from what it was before, and it also has the function of storing objects now, allowing me to nourish magic artifacts within it.”

Regarding the newly enhanced Void Dark Pearl, Xu Mu was very satisfied.

With a substantial supply of spiritual power from the Void Dark Pearl, he could practically become a mobile artillery platform.

Moreover, with the integration of the Kun Peng bone liquid, the quality of the Void Dark Pearl had escalated a notch, becoming a tier eleven magic artifact.

After a period of recuperation in his cultivation, Xu Mu took out a large number of Kun Peng feathers and began to enhance his Heavenly Phoenix Wings.

No need for smelting Kun Peng feathers, melting them in was sufficient; although the process was somewhat tedious, Xu Mu spent two and a half years to completely enhance it anew.

The formerly pearl white Heavenly Phoenix Wings had turned into a faint gray, resembling the wings of a vulture. They had lost their original sanctity and appeared extremely plain to the eye.

However, when you carefully gaze at it, one would feel as if they were elusive, seeming to disappear at any moment.

After Xu Mu refined them, he gave it a try. The speed indeed increased significantly, and he was able to hide his aura to a certain extent, giving him a sense of blending with the heavens and the earth.

The current Heavenly Phoenix Wings should be renamed the Wings of Kun Peng.

“It’s almost there!”

Xu Mu murmured to himself.

After refining the two magic artifacts, Xu Mu left, and no one knew where he went.

It was not until thirty years later, on an ordinary island, a sudden gust of wind and cloud arose, followed by the profoundly lonesome and ancient roars of beasts that echoed millions of miles away.

“The fusion is finally complete, and as expected, my realm has broken through to the late Nascent Soul stage!” Xu Mu said excitedly in his heart.

To avoid being detected by the Cluster Stars Sect, he deliberately withdrew from the public eye and chose a secluded island to merge with the Kun Peng true blood.

Besides integrating the bloodline, he spent a considerable amount of Luck Value to upgrade the secret skill “Twelve Startle Cicada Skill” and the martial method “Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue” to a transcendent level.

The martial method he practiced was born from the True Spirit Kun Peng, possessing the divine sense of Kun Peng. Now, assisted by the “Twelve Startle Cicada Skill” and using the True Blood of Kun Peng, the martial method truly came to life.

In addition to his two lifebound magic artifacts.

With the bones, feathers, blood, and deity gathered, everything united to trigger a qualitative change. His realm naturally broke through to the late Nascent Soul stage, resulting in a qualitative leap in his power.

The current him, essentially had no rivals in the Nascent Soul stage.

Even in the Divinity Transformation stage, it was no longer possible to crush him as easily as an ant.

However, that wasn’t the biggest gain.

The gray Wings of Kun Peng spread out behind him. With a gentle tremor, his figure disappeared on the spot, reappearing a hundred feet away.

This was the greatest gain from his breakthrough this time.

With the aid of the Wings of Kun Peng, merging into space, he could perform spatial jumps with his flesh body, that is, instantaneous movement!

His lifebound Nascent Soul can also teleport instantaneously. However, as it is a spiritual body, although it can teleport, there are many restrictions and hence can only be used for fleeing.

This was entirely different from Xu Mu’s physical jump.

With this ability, Xu Mu could remain undefeated even against multiple attacks from Nascent Soul stage cultivators and could calmly leave.

Any cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage could not possibly escape his pursuit.

Most of the formations in the world have lost their effect on him.

Unless the formation could affect space or cover a vast range that Xu Mu could not teleport out of in one go.

Compared to the increase in power and realm, the divine skill of instant movement was the ultimate life-saving trick, the real ace up his sleeve.

Ordinary people, even if they obtain the Wings of Kun Peng, could not perform instantaneous movement. Even at the late stage of Divinity Transformation, it’s difficult, but due to various reasons, Xu Mu acquired this incredible ability during the late Nascent Soul stage.

The Kun Peng inherently controlled the power of space. At a very young age, it could undertake long-distance spatial travel, and Xu Mu could be said to have capitalized on the strength of Kun Peng.

After gaining the divine skill of instantaneous movement, Xu Mu felt much more relaxed, knowing that even if the talisman given by his clone was used up, he would still be able to put up a fight.

His current attributes panel was as follows:

[Name: Xu Mu]

[Lifespan: 302/3000]

[Realm: Nascent Soul Seventh Layer; 1500000/7000000]Nôv(el)B\\jnn

[Innate Talent: Affinity for the Five Elements]

[Family Talent: Always on Target]

[Martial Method: Tier Nine・Kun Peng Tun Tian Jue Transcendent; 0/0]

…

“I still have quite a lot of Luck Value. Once I return, I will find a few suitable skills to cultivate and add more combat methods! By collecting high tier Pill Recipes efficiently, I can quickly increase my realm!”

Xu Mu was still concerned about things on land. Current realm was not enough to challenge Old Ancestor of Tongyou.

In mentioning this, one must address the fact that the spatial tear leading to the Southern Domain had disappeared, it was unknown whether it was due to the Mysterious Sun Secret Manual or not.

Regardless, now if he wanted to return, he could only go through the Misty Sea, which was a huge headache for Xu Mu.

Inside the Misty Sea, there was a very likely True Spirit. If one was not careful, even a Divinity Transformation cultivator could perish, let alone him in the late Nascent Soul stage.

However, no matter the danger, he had to return because Ye Yingying and others were in the Dayuan Kingdom, and he could not ignore them.

Although there was no point in rushing right now, he still had to prepare well.

After his realm became stable, Xu Mu immediately left his seclusion and returned to the Palace of Pure Heart. At the same time, he refined pills to enhance his children’s strength and explored various skills to improve his combat measures.

On the other hand, Lu Jingkong broke through to the late Nascent Soul stage before him. He had begun to integrate the Outer Sea forces, preparing to establish the Outer Sea Alliance to resist the oppression of the Sea Race and the Cluster Stars Sect.

During this period, both the Cluster Stars Sect and Butian Pavilion were relatively quiet, not causing trouble for Xu Mu, presumably because they had not fully ascertained his strength yet.

If they were to act, they would surely strike like lightning, and not give him any opportunity to turn the situation around.

Therefore, Xu Mu was constantly on guard and kept trying to gain strength to deal with oncoming storms.

Time flew by, and several years passed swiftly. One day, Lu Jingkong suddenly sent a message, asking him to come to the Outer Sea as there was an important matter to discuss.

Xu Mu left the Cang Ming Ocean Territory that very day and went to the Outer Sea to meet with Lu Jingkong.
