Chapter 656 - Mu Taos Breakthrough

Chapter 656 - Mu Tao's Breakthrough

At first, only Lin Mu heard the cries, but then Jing Luo heard them as well.

"Oh? Just as I asked..." Jing Luo said as he turned his head towards the city.

"What’s that seniors?" Mu Niu and others could now hear the sound coming from the city as well.

The sound of cries was mixed and distorted by the time it reached the Mu clan and thus they were unable to tell what exactly they meant.

"That should be the Fei, Hui and Shu clan coming to their senses..." Lin Mu replied, before looking at Mu Tao. "We should start the process, no use wasting time." He added.

"Of course, senior." Mu Tao said before sitting down in the middle of the formation circle.

Jing Luo had only made the initial circle the formation for now so that Mu Tao could take advantage of it. The rest of it could be added later on, once Mu Tao was done with his breakthrough to the Core Condensation realm.

The entire Mu clan had gathered around by now to witness Mu Tao’s breakthrough and was quite excited and anxious at the same time.

After the tragedy two years ago, they had only been fed with one bad news after the other and thus their morale was down in the gutter. But now they finally had a little ray of hope that may perhaps lift their spirits.

Lin Mu was also watching on in interest as he wanted to see how a breakthrough to the Core Condensation realm actually happened. This was because Lin Mu had actually not seen anyone breakthrough to the Core condensible realm before.

Even during his own breakthrough, he was asleep and it was brought about due to the bloodline ability of the Great Slumber Bear, the Well of Slumber. Thus, he wanted to see how it would all happen and increase his scope of knowledge.

~shua~

Mu Tao closed his eyes and let the spirit Qi stir within his body. The bottleneck that had restricted him till now was loosed and now more spirit Qi could finally be condensed within his Dantian. The spirit Qi concentrated around him due to the spirit Qi gathering formation made it easy for him to gather and refine.

In less than ten minutes, Mu Tao had refined the necessary liquid spirit Qi needed to reach the absolute peak of the Qi refining realm. Lin Mu was watching the man with his spirit sense to see his progress as well.

It was here that he saw the unique effect of the Thousand Thread Spirit breath technique that the Mu clan used. The spirit Qi within their body did not exist in the form of spirit Qi wisps, but rather in the form of strings.

The same spherical wisps were morphed into the form of a string and flowed through their meridians and accumulated in the Dantian. Within Mu Tao’s body, the strings had reached the absolute peak, and they started to join up.

The process started with a random string that floated within the Dantian but it soon, spread to the others. Soon the entire spirit Qi sea within the Dantian started to spin as string after string joined up until a very long string was formed.

But this was just the starting as this long string started to spin in the Dantian until it turned into what looked like a ball of yarn. Looking at this, Lin Mu couldn’t help but raise his eyes as it was different from normal core condensation realm breakthrough.

What normally happened was that a continuous spinning vortex formed that kept on sprinting till all the spirit Qi was involved in it. This process was called the consolidation of spirit Qi and could be considered to be the halfway point to a complete breakthrough.

The Ball of yarn in Mu Tao’s Dantian kept on spinning and started to compress. More pressure was applied by the external spirit Qi, that was trying to rush into his body and Dantian as well.

With each passing minute, the compression kept on increasing and soon reached a limit.

~HONG~

The Ball of yarn was suddenly compressed into the size of a marble. This kept on shrinking the more it spun, and about thirty minutes later, it had reached the size of a tiny pea.

The color of the Core was a pale white, the same as that of the others, but there were multiple striations on the entire core. If one looked at it closely, they would find that the core looked like a crystal piece that had been carved to look like a tiny ball of yarn.

And with this, the breakthrough of Mu Tao successfully competed.

~shua~

The spirit Qi infusion started from this point and more and more spirit Qi flowed into his body from the air. His Dantian, that had become empty of spirit Qi upon being converted into a core, was filled back again.

At first, there were only spirit Qi wisps that floated around, but as they circulated between his meridians and Dantian, they elongated to become strings back again. These strings further kept on being compressed until liquefying into liquid spirit Qi.

"That was faster than expected," Mu Niu spoke.

"With the formation array, of course, it was going to be fast. The stabilization of his core shouldn’t take long either." Jing Luo commented.

All the other members of the clan were closely observing Mu Tao and taking notes in their minds. They knew they had to break through to the core condensation realm soon as well and picked a lot of tips from Mu Tao’s breakthrough.

Lin Mu also nodded his head upon seeing all this and felt satisfied by it all. This was a rather smooth breakthrough, and he had gotten to learn some new things as well. But just as he was done with this, Lin Mu felt the communication jade slip vibrate.

He took it out of the ring and held it to see what was the message.

"The city is going crazy. Three clans have been slaughtered!" Jingming Shang’s nervous voice was heard.
