Chapter 271: Chapter 240 Lifebound Artifact_1

The process of refining the magical artifact did not encounter any accidents, after all, Xu Mu had invested a large amount of Luck Value into it, elevating it to the transcendent level.

If there were still any mishaps, it would truly be strange.

Eventually, Xu Mu obtained twelve bone beads white as relics.

Because he used different materials, Xu Mu simply changed its name, naming it

the Void Beads.

When he refined the twelve Void Beads and incorporated them into his body, he immediately felt the power of his Lifebound artifact.

It directly amplified his Spiritual Power by twelve times the original amount, even the recovery rate greatly improved.

The Void Beads may not be capable of attacking or defending like the Lifebound artifacts of others, but its function far exceeds those used for attack or defense.

Originally, Xu Mu’s Spiritual Power was already ten times that of an ordinary cultivator. Now with the aid of the Void Beads, he has far exceeded the Golden Core Stage.

“My cultivation may not be the first below Nascent Soul, but the quantity of

Spiritual Power is absolutely first beneath Nascent Soul!”

With the power of the Void Beads, his Spiritual Power was almost limitless.

“These can elevate the Space Grasp Skill to the transcendent level, with the

Space Grasp Skill and the Devour Sky Divine Skills, I have almost nothing to

fear without the Nascent Soul!”

The increase in strength gave Xu Mu a sudden feeling of looking down on all things. After all, it is rare to reach the Nascent Soul Stage. As long as he is not extremely unlucky, he would not encounter it.

Apart from the Void Beads, the wings of Kun Peng were also successfully refined, but now it’s called the Heavenly Phoenix Wings!

After all, its main material was the feather of an Ice Phoenix!

The Heavenly Phoenix Wings had three attributes: space, ice, and fire. Apart from basic speed boost, it could also be used to attack, but the attack power was rather limited compared to speed.

After the two artifacts were ready, Xu Mu reported to the sect and decided to

take a long journey home.

His family has not seen each other for more than twenty years, even though his clone had always been there.

And there’s the Cang Ming Ocean Territory—

Sigh!

Xu Mu sighed internally.

The only good news was probably that the spatial rift has still not been discovered.

Having Xu Mu risk going through the Tongyou Sect’s area and infiltrate it, he simply does not have the courage.

According to the news he received not long ago, the number of Nascent Soul experts in the Tongyou Sect has already exceeded two digits. The Old Ancestor of Tongyou is even suspected to have reached the Divinity Transformation Stage, otherwise, he or she wouldn’t have been in a standoff with the major sects.

Although he is not afraid of any Golden Core, encountering Nascent Soul would still result in defeat.

The gap between the Nascent Soul Stage and Golden Core Stage is truly enormous!

The Southern Domain is now a gathering place for various forces, so it’s best to stay as far away as possible.

Xu Mu turned into a white Escape Light, flying towards the bottom of the mountain. Unlike before when he would sneak down, this time, he descends the mountain openly.

After leaving the Fairy Moon Palace, Xu Mu directly flew towards the black market, planning to complete the trade and then head to where Ye Yingying and others have settled.

“Friend Daoist!”

Liu Wuheng, who had interacted multiple times, was becoming more easy­going now.

With the help of Xu Mu’s pills, the strength of his subordinates increased dramatically over the past decade, making the black market even more thriving and profitable.

After the two completed the trade, Liu Wuheng spoke again, “Friend Daoist, I wonder how you’ve considered my proposal last time?”

“I’m not in a hurry to break through to Nascent Soul yet, I’ll think about it in a few years!” Xu Mu shook his head and declined.

“That’s such a shame!” Liu Wuheng lamented.

He had wanted to invite Xu Mu to explore the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm with him and seek out spiritual medicines that could aid breakthrough into the Nascent Soul Stage.

The Heavenly Palace Secret Realm is alleged to have been a temporary dwelling of a Celestial Emperor in ancient times, when the mortal world and the immortal world were not yet separate. After subsequent changes in the laws of heaven and earth that led to the separation of the mortal and immortal worlds, this residence of the Celestial Emperor was left behind.

Of course, the authenticity of this legend is unknown to all.

After all, this event traces back to an antiquity beyond comprehension. However, certain arrangements within the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm indeed defy the imagination and couldn’t be the work of an ordinary cultivator.

Even cultivators at the Divinity Transformation Stage who have witnessed it are left in awe, suspecting that it might’ve been left behind by the immortals.

This secret realm is always situated somewhere in the Central Domain. Every year, a large number of cultivators enter, but only a few manage to obtain treasures. Many, contrarily, end up dead.

Yet, humans tend to forget their past failures upon seeing treasures, completely overlooking the potential danger.

Although Liu Wuheng leads many Golden Core cultivators, few are genuinely powerful. Xu Mu, with his mysterious origins and extraordinary skills, is an exception. If Xu Mu were to accompany him, the chances of obtaining treasures would undoubtedly be greatly increased.

The reason for Liu Wuheng’s invitation was his age. If he did not hasten the collection of resources for his advancement, it might be too late.

Unfortunately, Xu Mu didn’t seem too interested in the Heavenly Palace Secret Realm.

Partly because he hadn’t yet reached the latter stages of cultivation and was still a distance away from attempting a breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Stage and partly because he had his own preparations and didn’t need to risk entering a dangerous secret realm.

Just as Xu Mu was preparing to bid farewell to Liu Wuheng and leave, a large boom sounded from outside.

“What’s going on?”

Both of them were startled and rushed directly out of the shop.

They saw the originally calm Great Array shaking violently, as if it had suffered a powerful attack and seemed on the verge of breaking at any moment.

“How is this possible? This is a tier eight Formation, with ten Golden Core cultivators maintaining it simultaneously. How could this happen?

Liu Wuheng’s expression underwent a huge change, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

As the actual mastermind behind the black market, he was acutely aware of the power of this defense array. Even several late-stage Golden Core cultivators attacking simultaneously wouldn’t cause this situation.

“Big brother! It’s bad! There’s a… a Nascent Soul cultivator attacking our Great Array!”

A middle-aged Golden Core stage cultivator rushed over, his face filled with panic.

“A Nascent Soul stage cultivator? Who did we upset to bring such calamity upon us?” Liu Wuheng desperately inquired.

“It’s the Old Ancestor of the Nascent Soul stage from the Tianyang Palace. They have been spying on us for a long time. If not for the arrangements made by Big Brother, they would’ve broken in a long time ago!” the middle-aged cultivator explained.

“Tianyang Palace! Indeed, it is them, damn it!” Liu Wuheng could not help but curse out loud.

Considering it’s called black market, it obviously operates outside the established norms. If any power were to seize an opportunity, they’d definitely try to eliminate it, as it is akin to a cancer absorbing their influence.

However, Liu Wuheng was savvy. He had connections with forces all around and used to pay some of the profits to allow them to turn a blind eye.

Otherwise, no matter how concealed they were, they could not avoid being hunted down by a Nascent Soul sect.

The situation was similar with the Tianyang Palace and Fairy Moon Palace initially. Unfortunately, a magic treasure of a Tianyang Palace cultivator appeared here once. Tianyang Palace, failing to find the owner here, vented their anger on them.

To pacify the Tianyang Palace, he had a price to pay. But the result was not only a failure to completely calm them down but aroused their greater greed. Awhile ago, they demanded he relinquish control and let the Tianyang Palace take full ownership.

Liu Wuheng naturally disagreed, leading to a deadlock. Apparently, the other party was now prepared to move directly.

in Liu Wuheng’s opinion, the Tianyang Palace’s search for the criminal was a ruse to take over the black market.

Fortunately, he was prepared in advance!

“Take everything with you immediately, activate the Transmission Array, and let us go! Tianyang Palace wants to take advantage? Hmph! Dream on!” Liu Wuheng gritted his teeth and commanded.

“Daoist Liu, may I leave with you?” Xu Mu suddenly asked.
