Mo Wuxin naturally rejected Xu Mu’s suggestion ten thousand times over. Anyone facing such a situation would find it difficult to accept. Yet, he was helpless against Xu Mu in terms of strength and could only let him leave in the end.
“You don’t want to, and I don’t want to either!”
Xu Mu grumbled in his heart.
It s rare for him to do a good deed, only to be rejected.
Depressing!
The pills I refined this time should be enough for Nangong Suyi for a lifetime. Now that I’ve offended Mo Wuxin, I guess I won’t have a chance to come back.” Xu Mu looked back, thinking that the matter would end there.
However, what he did not expect was that before he reached home, Nangong Suyi sent him a message asking him to come back.
This was the first time Nangong Suyi had personally messaged him.
After hearing her reasons, he hesitated for a moment before agreeing. Although he was somewhat wary of Nangong Suyi, he did not fear her, especially after fusing with the bloodline of the Split Earth Whale.
Although Nangong Suyi was several levels higher than him, her age was a big issue, and it was uncertain whether she could still fight or not.
Otherwise, the other people of the Four Seas Immortal Palace wouldn’t be so eager to take advantage of her decline.
Moreover, he still had two tier-nine Immobilize Talismans, in addition to the tier-eight Space Grasp Skill.
If a fight truly broke out, it was still uncertain who would win or lose.
However, for safety’s sake, he arranged to meet outside the Palace of Pure Heart to prevent her from using the Formation as an aid.
At the same time, he boosted the Divine Skills of the Flame Thunder Wing to the Perfection level in one breath.
This was his limit. Any further improvement would strain his Spiritual Power. Even a perfected Flame Thunder Wing could only be maintained for thirty breaths.
After reaching tier seven, the consumption of Spiritual Power by skills was enormous.
If he hadn’t upgraded his main Martial Method, the Crimson Spirit Jue, to the Transcendent level, he might not even be able to cast a beginner-level tier seven skill.
The gap between each stage is significant. The difference between the Golden Core Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage is vast, whether in terms of Spiritual Power or Divine Intent.
To cast a Golden Core Stage skill during the Foundation Establishment Stage was like a child lifting a heavy hammer – not an easy feat at all.
Among the countless cultivators in the world, only a few could cast spells beyond their level.
Nangong Suyi agreed to Xu Mu’s request without hesitation.
Several days later,
In an unknown sea area,
An elegant middle-aged woman with crow’s feet at the corner of her eyes and wearing a plain chiffon dress, stood on the rippling sea, backhanded, looking at the changing clouds in the sky. Her eyes were like a still pool, devoid of any ripples.
It was not until a faint scent appeared behind her.
Without turning her head, she said, “I thought you wouldn’t dare come. You seem to have some courage.”
“If Master commands it, how can the disciple disobey!”
The figure of Xu Mu appeared out of nowhere, with a hint of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
The middle-aged woman standing before him was none other than his nominal Master, Nangong Suyi.
Apart from the day he became her disciple, this was their second meeting.
“How confident are you in helping Wuxin condense the Golden Pill?” Nangong Suyi did not waste time with small talk and went straight to the point.
“Not at all.”
Xu Mu shrugged.
He had never done such thing before, so how could he be confident.
He didn’t even know if it was possible.
You dare to utter such words when you have no confidence at all!”
Nangong Suyi’s expression remained unchanged, but a terrifying aura emanated from her, making the sea within a hundred miles as calm as a millpond.
Xu Mu raised his eyebrow but showed no fear. A surge of Spiritual Power burst from within his body, blocking the tide-like pressure.
“I was just kindly giving a suggestion! If Master finds it unworkable, you can just pretend I never said anything!”
Nangong Suyi turned to glance at him, her eyes flickering slightly.
It was clear she had noticed Xu Mu’s true cultivation level.
In less than ten years, he had advanced from the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment to its peak. This terrifying speed of cultivation made Nangong Suyi’s heart slightly uneasy.
Moreover, the fact that he could withstand her aura without fearing was extremely rare.
If this youth survives, his future will surely be extraordinary!
At this point, Nangong Suyi had eighty percent confidence in Xu Mu’s method. However, as Mo Wuxin, her last and only hope, she had to double-check.
“It’s not that I think it’s unworkable, but just that I need to personally test it.” Nangong Suyi said.
“You…want to test it personally?!”
Xu Mu was a bit dumbfounded.
How on earth could one test such a thing?
Don’t tell me—
“Master, you’re not joking with me, are you?” Xu Mu asked in shock.
“What’s wrong? Are you afraid, or do you look down on me?”
Nangong Suyi maintained a calm demeanor, as if they were discussing the most ordinary issue.
II II
Indeed, considering her imminent decay, he did somewhat look down on her.
But fear, far from it!
Whether it’s a human or a ghost, alive or dead, he dares to face it all.
Although it was said that the older a female cultivator is, the more valuable she becomes, but she was clearly well past prime.
What if he accidentally used too much force and caused harm to her life?
Master s cultivation is profound, and she looks like a fairy, how could I possibly look down on her? I’m just worried for Master’s health!” “I’ve lived for eight hundred years, I’ve seen it all, and you! Humph!” Nangong Suyi narrowed her eyes, revealing a touch of disdain.
Exactly, she had lived for too long and to her the things that ordinary people struggle to talk about were as common as eating and drinking.
II II
You’re definitely looking down on me!
I’ve lived two lifetimes, and they weren’t lived in vain, today I have to show you the repercussions of disregarding your elders!
“Since Master has said so, then I won’t be polite.”
“If that’s the case, then let’s begin!”
“Begin?”
Xu Mu glanced at the deserted sea, questioning with doubt: “Master, we wouldn’t really be doing it here, would we?”
“What, do you want to go back to the Palace of Pure Heart with me?”
“Eh! No need for that!”
The Pure Heart Palace had been her base for who knew how many years, even if a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator went there, they might not be able to please her.
With a wave of Nangong Suyi’s sleeve, a water curtain enveloped the two of them.
“Master, you really are brilliant!”
“Less nonsense, hurry up and start cultivating. If it doesn’t work, I will not spare you!”
“Hehe! Don’t worry, Master!”
The Secret Skill of Yin and Yang Harmony in its perfection, was indeed domineering, even Nangong Suyi, with her eight hundred years of cultivation, couldn’t withstand it and soon furrowed her brows.
Initially, she merely wanted to try out the effect and power of this martial method, after all, at her age, she really had no desire left.
However, as Xu Mu started exercising the secret skill, an unprecedented tide surged forth.
“How could it be!”
Nangong Suyi, who could no longer contain her shock, involuntarily exclaimed in her heart.
The water gushed forth like a spring, plunging her into a tumultuous sea, floating and sinking with the waves, battered by the storm.
Time trickled away and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed.
Xu Mu never emerged from the immersion until the creek was dry, and Nangong Suyi, pleading for mercy, promised to let him do whatever he wished, and then Xu Mu let her go.
Watching the Master, who had always acted superior, begging for mercy, Xu
Mu felt extremely pleased.
This was his first time defeating a Golden Core expert and heading deep into the enemy’s grounds.
Simultaneously, the system’s announcement sounded.
[Achievement Acquired: Reverence for the Master!]
[Reverence for the Master: From now on, you can gain 20 Luck Value points every day!]
[Luck Value: Can be used to improve skill proficiency, but cannot directly improve cultivation!]
