Chapter 520: Chapter 476: Potential Danger_2

The reason he brought it up now was also due to an increased number of people inquiring about it recently.

“Oh!”

Xu Mu rubbed his jaw thoughtfully, his gaze flickering, unsure of what to think.

After a moment, he finally said, “I plan to make a trip back to the Inner Sea to take a look.”

“You can make such decisions yourself, there’s no need to discuss with me.” Lu Jingkong retorted.

“I’ll leave immediately.” Xu Mu continued, “I will likely fly slowly while concealing my aura on the way, so I probably won’t arrive until tomorrow morning.”

“…”

Lu Jingkong couldn’t help but feel puzzled, unsure of what Xu Mu meant. Why bother telling her all these details?

However, after Xu Mu finished speaking, he didn’t wait for her to respond. Instead, he turned into a streak of light and flew towards the Inner Sea, disappearing across the horizon swiftly.

Lu Jingkong did not attempt to chase after him or inquire further. She watched his retreating figure; after a short while, her facial expression returned to calm, and she turned back into the formation.

She didn’t inform others of Xu Mu’s return. She entered her place of retreat and continued her cultivation.

On the other hand, after Xu Mu concealed his presence and cultivation, he began heading towards the Inner Sea at a leisurely pace.

He planned to exchange some words with Mo Wuxin when he returned, then tried to figure out a way to cross the Misty Sea back to the mainland.

It had been over a hundred years since he had left the mainland. He was unsure how things were there, especially with regards to the Demon Gate. He was always a bit worried.

If he didn’t return to take a look, he wouldn’t be able to put his mind at ease and concentrate on cultivation.

Moreover, he had another purpose.

That was, once he found a way back, he would endeavour to collect as many medicinal herbs as possible for cultivation.

Currently, advancing his cultivation level was extremely difficult.

Those Dan medicines that could aid his breakthrough were terrifyingly high-quality, and the medicinal herbs that could be used for their preparation were all exceedingly precious.

After all, the vast sea did not compare to the mainland where gathering various spiritual medicines was much easier.

Of course, he would also have people collecting them here.

As long as he could collect enough medicinal herbs, his alchemy skills could be quickly enhanced to the top level using his system, and then, by making top-grade Dan Medicine, he might be able to elevate his cultivation level to the Divinity Transformation Stage in a short period.

The Old Ancestor of Tongyou’s cultivation level — he had no idea whether it had reached the Divinity Transformation Stage after all these years.

However, even if he hadn’t reached the Divinity Transformation Stage, his powerful puppet body was not to be underestimated and could stand up to normal Divinity Transformation cultivators.

Although Xu Mu’s strength had soared dramatically, and he was a lot stronger than when he first arrived here, he still didn’t have the confidence to deal with the Old Ancestor of Tongyou by himself.

Xu Mu felt that to completely resolve the issue, he would have to enhance his cultivation level to Divinity Transformation Stage and integrate the Sky-splitting Halberd, only then would he be confident.

Especially considering the Old Ancestor of Tongyou had a puppet body, without the Sky-splitting Halberd, no one would be powerful enough to kill him.

If it weren’t for the Old Ancestor of Tongyou, Xu Mu wouldn’t be so eager to increase his cultivation level. After all, he was only three hundred years old.

Reaching the Nascent Soul Stage at the age of three hundred is abnormal even by genius standards.

Moreover, after reaching the Divinity Transformation Stage, he would need to consider advancing to higher levels.

According to his collected information, the highest possible cultivation level in this world was only at the beginning of the Divinity Transformation stage because the energy levels this world could provide could not sustain him at a higher level.

Just like when he entered the Kun Peng Small World, where he could only reach the Nascent Soul Stage. Any attempt to progress further was immensely difficult.

While Xu Mu was flying idly and contemplating his future plans, an abnormal fluctuation in his surroundings caught his attention.

“It seems I was right; they have indeed arrived.”

As soon as this thought crossed his mind, the once bright and sunny sky suddenly filled with radiant stars.

Stars abruptly appeared in the sky, emitting dazzling radiance that culminated into multiple Star Swords.

These Star Swords, emanating severe sharpness, came with an overwhelming pressure, as if the stars themselves were falling from the sky.

As the force from all the stars rained down, the entire sea seemed to be collapsing, resembling an imminent apocalypse.

This current scene reminded him of the attack employed by the Divinity Transformation cultivator he once encountered.

However, compared to the earlier grandeur of constellation, the power of the current Star Swords seemed inferior.

Although it was less powerful than the previous constellations’ brilliance, it was beyond what any ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators could achieve.

“Divinity Transformation stage?”

Xu Mu’s eyes flashed involuntarily. He had anticipated an ambush, but he didn’t expect the enemy to employ the same tactics again.

Why would they make a Divinity Transformation Stage act, are they not afraid of driving him into a corner?

Although he wasn’t quite clear about the last situation with the talisman, judging by the silence after a long while, the Divinity Transformation Stage who attacked must be unwell. If not dead, they are likely severely injured.

Otherwise, if it were only a minor injury, the enemy would have acted again a long time ago.

Since the enemy had already suffered once, logically they wouldn’t be dumb enough to employ the same tactics again.

After all, they cannot predict how many talismans Xu Mu has on him.

Even if he could only use it once more, it would definitely be unpleasant.

Xu Mu was puzzled, but there was nobody available to answer his doubts.

Just as he considered activating an instant spatial move, the sea water in the ocean suddenly transformed into a whirlpool.

Not an ordinary sea whirlpool but a silver galaxy.

In the brief moment, he felt expelled from his original world and thrust into another system of time and space.

Not only his vision changed, even his mind was obscured, and he perceived everything as happening in the starry sky.

More bizarrely, even the oxygen in the air disappeared, entering into a complete vacuum state.

“Seems like not only has a Divinity Transformation Stage acted, but other treasures have been employed to construct such a miraculous alteration of reality.”

If he had encountered such a situation earlier, he might have had to use the talisman left to him by his clone.

But now there was no need for that.

Just as the hidden enemy intended to use this heavenly star grinding wheel to completely crush Xu Mu, he took out his Sky-splitting Halberd and struck it violently at the emptiness in front of him.

Without the need of using his full power, just 70% of it.

It completely tore open the emptiness in his vision.

Under the fluctuations of spatial forces, those seemingly ancient and mighty stars began to break apart and crumble.

The emptiness in his vision quickly collapsed and was replaced once again by a pleasant, sunny ocean.

Everything was as if nothing happened.

“How could this be possible?”

The person hiding in the shadows shuddered with fear.

But Xu Mu did not stop there. The four giant grey wings on his back spread wide, and in the next moment, he disappeared from his original location.

Shortly after, a ripple appeared in the void hundreds of feet away.

A figure materialized in the void with injuries all over his body.

“Impossible, how did you find me? I used the…”

“Why so much nonsense?”

Xu Mu’s figure appeared behind him, and his Sky-splitting Halberd swung once more.

The cultivator who fell from the void immediately deployed various methods and magic weapons for defense.

Unfortunately, facing the spatial force that can only be used by someone in the continuous period, his means were torn apart as easily as paper.

His body, which he had forged for hundreds of years, was inevitably torn to shreds as well, not even his Nascent Soul managed to escape the fate.

Just after Xu Mu managed to kill him easily, another figure hidden in the air materialized, launching a reckless attack on him.

Xu Mu avoided the attack with a spatial shift and looked at the enemy with confusion.

Knowing that he cannot win, but still daring to charge forward, it was indeed strange.

But he quickly noticed the life force burning wildly within the enemy.

“I see!”

Once he understood, without a moment’s hesitation, he used several spatial shifts and easily killed the enemy.

After cleaning up the battlefield, he continued to fly towards the Inner Sea.

By now he has completely understood the situation and figured out the enemy’s plan.

These two cultivators who had ambushed him were powerful, but they were not of the Divinity Transformation Stage.
