Chapter 122: Characteristics Of The True Realm
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
On a mountain dozens of miles away from Muyang City, several people were staring at the city.
“The people in this city are so stupid. They actually waited for the Evil Gang disciples to enter before activating the formation. Was this to trap the Evil Gang in the city?”
Several people paused for a moment, then laughed.
They had never seen such fools before.
“They actually think they can trap half of the masters of the Evil Gang”
“Haha! This how the Xu Family is going to defeat both sides. Killing both the people in the city and the demons. The Xu Family is really something else.”
They laughed again.
The formation in the city lit up for a while, then dimmed again.
“Should we go into the city and have a look?”
“Forget it! If we go, we may not be able to come back.”
After watching for a while, there was still no movement in the city.
“Muyang City is definitely finished. We should seal Muyang City up with a formation and repair it every one hundred years. By then, the Evil Gang disciples will leave after they’re done.”
“The Xu Family is going to die this time!”
“Yes! Then the prenatal stone mines around Muyang City will be ours.”
“There are so many prenatal stone mines near Muyang City. Do you think there will be wells of prenatal qi too?”
Several people paused in thought for a moment.
They fell silent as they stared at the surroundings of Muyang City, absorbed in their own thoughts.
“Huh? Looks like someone is coming out of Muyang City!”
Five figures flew out of Muyang City.
Meanwhile, in the attic, Li Mu stared at the old man.
The old man was secretly delighted.
Sure enough, this person had come from somewhere else, just like them.
The old man complimented him. “Senior, you are already a True Realm master. Of course you can go anywhere you want to.”
“I’m not a True Realm master yet. I haven’t made a breakthrough!”
“Not yet?” The old man frowned.
He was already a ninth level Virtual Realm master, and was considered to be at the pinnacle of the Virtual Realm. He was the most powerful person in the Xu Family.
No one was a match for him in the entirety of the East Continent.
Except for the person in front of him, of course.
He felt a great deal of pressure just by being in front of this person.
It felt like the other party could kill him just by thinking about it.
The old man never doubted this.
So, although he had originally come to make trouble, he immediately changed his mind once he met Li Mu.
He could only make friends with this person, never enemies.
“Not yet!” Li Mu affirmed.
“Sigh! Is it so hard to reach the True Realm?” The old man murmured.
“The Xu family is hiding many secrets!”
“We have no choice. In this world, we can’t survive if we don’t keep secrets.”
Li Mu slowly sipped his gla.s.s of wine then pursed his lips. “The way you treat the disciples in your family is too cruel!”
“We have no choice! You came from that part of the world too. You should know how cruel it can be.”
Huh?
Which part of the world was this?
Li Mu frowned slightly, then thought for a moment and said,
“It’s very cruel. You’re eliminating them at every stage. Even crossing the single-plank bridge isn’t enough. Isn’t this too cruel? After all, they’re your disciples.”
“Senior, you must have been from a large sect, so you cannot understand our ways. Only through this can the disciples understand the true spirit of cultivation. Only this way can they experience awakenings. And only this way can our small family survive.”
Li Mu thought for a moment.
Large sect?
Which part of the world was this?
He wished he could grab the old man and ask him more.
But Li Mu chose to approach it tactically.
He didn’t ask about it directly, even though he was so eager to.
The old man’s name was Xu Xiao.
He was the ancestor of the Xu Family.
The entire Xu Family had come from another part of the world.
Li Mu guessed that they must have come from the sea.
After all, the sea was north of the East Continent.
Li Mu touched the round plate in his hand, but didn’t dare to ask more.
After taking the most precious treasure from their family, he didn’t have the heart to ask them about its secrets too.
He wasn’t so shameless.
He needed to tease it out slowly to get the answer that he wanted.
At least now, he knew a lot more of his secrets.
While the two of them were chatting, the five Virtual Realm masters of the Xu Family penetrated the core of the Evil Gang.
In just one night, the Evil Gang only had six Virtual Realm masters left. Three had died, one was seriously injured, and the other two had fled.
The next day, the Virtual Realm master was killed.
The five Virtual Realm masters of the Xu Family chased after and killed the remaining two demons.
When news of this broke out, the entire East Continent was left in shock.
The East Continent families who had been tossed around by the Evil Gang immediately freed themselves and attacked their captors.
Eventually, the North Continent sent a group of masters to help them.
Within a month, the Evil Gang’s presence in the East Continent was suppressed.
Many disciples of the Evil Gang had fled.
One of the remaining two demons was killed by the Xu family while the other was still missing.
The only demon left in the entire East Continent was the one cultivated by the Qianyuan Sacred Ground.
This demon was not very fierce and was controlled by humans.
The entire East Continent was shocked by the Xu Family’s actions.
Many families changed their att.i.tudes towards the Xu Family.
“The Xu Family is too terrifying!”
“It has always so been so mysterious!”
The Xu Family had silently become very established in the East Continent.
It was the strongest family, but also the most mysterious family.
Li Mu and Xu Xiao sat opposite each other in the attic in Muyang City.
“Xu Xiao, it’s impossible for you to keep a low profile now.”
“Senior, there are less than five hundred people in the Xu Family. How high-profile can we get?”
“After this incident, there will be quite a few families who want to marry into the Xu Family,” Li Mu joked.
Everyone wanted their daughter to marry into the Xu Family.
Not only was the Xu Family rich and wealthy, the men of the Xu Family were also very skilled.
They would be safe there.
Only their grandchildren would suffer.
“It’s good to have more grandchildren!”
“Sigh! You’re lucky. I can’t do this.”
“Senior, you seem troubled.” Xu Xiao remarked curiously.
“Of course! I still haven’t broke through after so long! Does the Xu Family have any records of the True Realm for me to learn from?”
Xu Xiao stared at Li Mu for a long time before saying slowly: “According to the cla.s.sics handed down by the ancestors, they all achieved an awakening by themselves. However, they have recorded several characteristics of the True Realm.”
Li Mu was at the edge of his seat.
He had stayed in Muyang City for so long just to hear this.
For the last six months, Li Mu had invited Xu Xiao for many drinks and gifted him many pills, just for this information.
“There are three characteristics. Firstly, true qi will transform into true liquid. Secondly, one will gain divine consciousness. Thirdly, one will gain the ability to change a bloodline.”
Li Mu frowned, not quite understanding.
He has already transformed half the true qi into true liquid.
He already had divine consciousness.
“Change a bloodline?”
“Legend has it that the descendants of the True Realm are far more superior than ordinary martial artists. Changing a bloodline can destroy entire parts of the world.”
Xu Xiao glanced at Li Mu strangely.
He found it strange that Li Mu didn’t ask about the true liquid or divine consciousness, but about bloodlines.
Meanwhile, inside a certain cave in Zhongzhou…
The smell of decay escaped from inside the cave to the outside, causing all the surrounding beasts to die.
“Hehe! I, Nangong Mi, have finally returned. Unfortunately, the Honghai Sacred Ground is no longer there. Since Honghai Sacred Ground is gone, then I will destroy the Xia Mu and Huanhai Sacred Grounds!”
Under the black robe, a body festered. It was completely black and the eyes were empty.
He looked just like the demon released by the Qianyuan Sacred Ground in Zhongzhou.
