Chapter 224: Chapter 193: Golden Pill Level Three_l

Cang Ming Ocean Territory

Palace of Pure Heart

Heaven’s and earth’s vital energy gathered like a funnel, transforming into a seven-colored swirl, constantly pouring into a room below.

Inside the room, Xu Mu sat cross-legged, allowing the massive amount of heaven and earth’s vital energy to enter his body, remaining calm and immobile.

Roar!

A phantom-like whale song radiated out from his body. The vital energy between heaven and earth boiled violently, and an illusory beast shadow appeared behind him, as if a whale sucking from a river, swallowing all of the heaven and earth’s vital energy within a hundred feet.

“What the hell is he up to? Such a disturbance!

The Palace Master of Pure Heart Palace, Mo Wuxin, who is also the only one in the Golden Core Stage besides Xu Mu, walked out of her dwelling and turned into an escape light, flying towards Xu Mu’s residence.

Disciples of the Pure Heart Palace sensed the anomaly, each poking their heads out to investigate. Upon seeing that it was Xu Mu’s place, they promptly withdrew back.

Xu Mu’s advancement to the Golden Core Stage was not a secret. With the strong support of the former Palace Master Nangong Suyi, his status in the Palace is second only to Mo Wuxin.

As long as he didn’t do anything that would offend both gods and mortals, no one in the Pure Heart Palace would dare to disturb him.

Mo Wuxin arrived at the building where Xu Mu lived, dispelled the escape light, and was about to enter to check, but Xu Mu had already walked out.

Over the ten years, aside from his aura becoming more profound, Xu Mu had no other changes.

“What the hell are you up to? Such a disturbance!” Mo Wuxin addressed him coldly.

“I might have made a breakthrough in cultivation!” Xu Mu grinned.

“You didn’t reach the third stage of the Golden Core, did you?” Mo Wuxin frowned.

“Sister, you’re really smart, guessed it in one go!” Xu Mu teased.

Seeing Xu Mu’s smug appearance, Mo Wuxin felt terribly irritated.

Originally, her cultivation was much higher than Xu Mu’s. She did not expect to be surpassed by him in just a few decades.

This was indeed a heavy blow to her.

“What’s so great about that? I can advance to the third stage soon too!” Mo Wuxin, with a cold snort, turned around and prepared to leave.

“Sister, don’t be in a hurry. Shouldn’t we celebrate a bit since I’ve broken through in cultivation?”

“You celebrate yours, what’s it got to do with me.”

“Your piece… huh huh!”

“You…ah…umm…”

Two days later, Mo Wuxin left Xu Mu’s residence with a flushed and annoyed face.

Xu Mu stayed at the Palace of Pure Heart for a while, made sufficient pills for his family, and then returned to White River City. A new clone was about to mature, and he needed to cultivate and send it to a new area.

With ten years of development, White River City has become more and more prosperous. Although Xu Mu has repeatedly suppressed its development to avoid attracting the attention of the Liyang Sect, the entire White River City has nearly doubled in size over the past decade.

The person now in charge of managing the marketplace is no longer Si Tan’er, but Xu Sheng, Xu Mu’s eldest son.

Xu Sheng is already in his thirties and under Xu Mu’s training, his cultivation has already reached the Foundation Establishment Stage. Being the eldest son, it was inevitable that he would inherit the famfly business. Managing the marketplace was a way for him to gain early experience.

As for Si Tan’er and the others, they concentrated on improving their cultivation, assisting only occasionally.

More than ten years have passed, and their cultivations have all reached or exceeded the middle stage of Foundation Establishment. Also, thanks to Xu Mu’s inherited talent, they all conceived again and didn’t have much time to manage trivial matters.

Other than Xu Sheng, the eldest Xu Ling, second oldest Xu Yin, and fourth oldest Xu Xia all had their own responsibilities.

After Xu Ling and Zhang Yu got married (yes, that kid got lucky), they jointly managed the Xu Family’s trade convoy, traveling throughout the Tianhe Sect region. She loved Xu Mu, but there was no helping it.

Xu Yin was not in the Tianhe Sect region but was still in the Cang Ming Ocean Territory. She had taken over all the forces Xu Mu left in the Cang Ming Ocean Territory. Her primary responsibility was to gather cultivation resources not found in the Tianhe Sect region, such as Foundation Establishment Pills.

Xu Xia, however, was keen on accompanying Chi Feiyan to covertly sell Foundation Establishment Pills within the Tianhe Sect region. She often disappeared for days on end. Xu Mu did not want her to take such a risk, but she ignored his advice repeatedly, so he had to let her be.

As for the other younger ones, the oldest, Xu Tianxin, was only sixteen, and the youngest was only a few years old. They couldn’t help much and mainly focused on cultivation for now.

Among all the young ones, the one Xu Mu valued the most was Xu Tian Yi, Nangong Suyi’s daughter, who possessed an unparalleled talent.

Only three years into her cultivation, she broke through to the late stage of Qi Cultivation without relying on pills.

Her talent was no less than Lu Baiyu’s. There’s a high chance of her advancing to the Nascent Soul stage in the future.

Xu Mu planned to focus on cultivating her as a pillar of the family.

in case something unexpected happens to him in the future, with Xu Tian Yi, the rest of the Xu Family wouldn’t be helpless and alone.

“It’s just a pity about Suyi!”

Nangong Suyi passed away a few years ago due to a failure in advancement.

Now Xu Tian Yi lives with Su Luan, Xu Tianpu, and Xu Tiantian.

If Xu Tian Yi was the number one in terms of talent, then Xu Tiantian was undoubtedly the second. Both of them were the offspring of those in the Golden Core Stage, giving them a big head start over ordinary people.

Speaking of this, Xu Mu thought of Mo Wuxin, wishing she would continue to bear children.

An offspring born to those in the Golden Core Stage, no matter how bad they could be, would not go too wrong.

Shortly after returning to White River City, the third gourd clone was finally matured under the constant nourishment of his blood. This was a green gourd, and as expected, should be of the wood attribute.

Just as Xu Mu was dissecting the clone and carefully cultivating it, the second clone sent some good news.

“Hmm? Finally got an opportunity!”

Xu Mu sensed the situation of the second clone and couldn’t help revealing a bit of a smile on his face.

Ten years ago, he sent the second clone to the Outer Seas to find the Kun Peng spine and feathers.

During these ten years, he first had the clone turn into a member of the Sea Race using the Twelve Startle Cicada Skill. It gradually made its way into the Sea Race population using spirit stones. After much planning and effort, it finally obtained official status and got an opportunity close to the Imperial Clan.

He had no choice. He had no power in the Sea Race and had to experience everything one step at a time. It took him more than a decade to find an opportunity.

And judging by the situation, it might take a long while to obtain the spine and feathers.

“As long as there’s progress, that’s good enough. As for time, I have plenty! He is only 106 years old now, nearly four hundred years away from his five hundred-year breakthrough limit. He has plenty of time to carefully plan. Speaking of which, Xu Mu had already figured out the location where the third clone would go.

The Central Plains!

There, Nascent Soul sects were abundant. Sending a clone there would not only broaden his horizons but also help him find various resources he needed, especially body refining techniques and pills needed for the Nascent Soul breakthrough.

Such high-level items were extremely rare in the Cang Ming Ocean Territory. If a major power possesses them, they keep them hidden. The top-level methods are even more confidential and difficult to obtain.

Ordinary methods wouldn’t catch his eye. Advanced methods were inaccessible, so Xu Mu considered taking a different path and checking out the Central Plains with its many sects.

“There are many experts in the Central Plains. I can’t let this clone be too weak!”

Deep Sea

Sea Race’s Great Dark Imperial City

Xu Mu, disguised as a member of the Blackwater Xuan Snake Clan, was following a lengthy queue, moving forward.
