Chapter 152: Chapter 133 Growing Up_1

Translator: 549690339 |

Before leaving the central castle, Xu Mu transformed multiple times to ensure that he left no traces or was followed. Only then did he return via the same route.

“This woman is really waiting for me outside!”

Xu Mu had originally planned to go straight back to his cave dwelling on Misty Morning Island, but he saw Zhang Tianluo waiting for him on a rocky shoal of a nearby island, looking like a fool.

She didn’t sense him at all as he walked up to her camouflaged with his invisibility technique.

“This bastard, idiot, why is he taking so long? Has something happened? Should I go take a look? What does it have to do with me? Better off dead! No, he hasn’t taught me the martial method yet. I still need…”

“Still need what?”

Xu Mu suddenly appeared, startling Zhang Tianluo.

The moment she realized it was Xu Mu, her face lit up with joy, but she quickly concealed it and readopted a look of disgust.

“I need to teach you a good lesson! Humph!”

“You think you can teach me a lesson? Do you believe I can teach you one right now?”

“I don’t believe you, dare you!”

Looking at Zhang Tianluo, who had learned to take off her robe on her own, Xu Mu was somewhat speechless.

He reached out and couldn’t help but knock heavily on her head, saying: “Little brat, you are rather bold now! But I have other matters to attend to, I’ll deal with you later!”

“No way! You coward! Bastard! Coward…”

Xu Mu didn’t bother arguing with this stubborn woman. After sending her back, he immediately headed for Misty Morning Island, preparing to upgrade his Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body.

The reason he didn’t go to Black Tide Island, which had stronger defenses, was because he couldn’t fully trust Xu Yiren and he was also worried about accidents happening.

If a sect really did come to cause trouble, their first target would certainly be Black Tide Island.

So it was safer to stay on his little island!

Upon returning to Misty Morning Island, Xu Mu activated all defensive arrays and opened the system to check.

[Luck Value: 21105]

Xu Mu had long given up on cultivating skills below the fourth tier. Even at the transcendent level of the third tier, they were fairly limited in their effects on him now.

Moreover, he was wholly concentrated on cultivating and alchemy, so he neither had the energy nor the time to cultivate them.

Except for the recent upgrade of the Controlling Corpse Skill, all his other Luck Values had been saved up, he had hardly leveled up his Flame and Thunder Wings.

The reason he hadn’t upgraded was because he was facing the same situation as with the Light Body Skill before, where various external forces made the input and output disproportionate. Further investment in Luck Value wouldn’t increase his speed by much, but the consumption of Luck Value would increase.

It would be better to upgrade the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body, on the one hand, to strengthen his power, and on the other hand, it would also promote the enhancement of the Flame and Thunder Wings.

In addition, he had to consider later changing his martial method and investing in Qimen Secret Techniques with greater returns.

Such as the Twelve Startle Cicada Skill, which, after the fusion of the Bloodline of the Illusion Thunder Silver Shark, effortlessly granted him proficiency level Illusion Thunder Divine Skill of the sixth tier.

Moreover, this skill would naturally enhance as his cultivation level increased.

Compared to simply promoting Thunder-controlling or Fire-controlling Divine Skills, it was much more worthwhile.

To be honest, with the advancement of his cultivation level, many of the originally powerful skills had become useless.

For instance, the Fire-controlling Skill, it was practically useless apart from alchemy. Not to mention skills like the Invisibility Technique and Light Body Skill.

Even the beast soul that was about to advance to the Green Flame level could only be used for surprise attacks.

At the Foundation Establishment Stage, cultivators possess Divine Intent, and those at the Golden Core Stage have even more techniques. Lower-tier skills and Divine Skills only seem like tricks to them.

After consulting the system, Xu Mu took out the Dragon Blood Sea Valley that the mysterious Sea Race woman had traded him, then fed a single pellet to a tier one green-striped turtle he caught randomly.

After eating the Dragon Blood Sea valley, the turtle began rolling around on the ground. Very soon, it suffered from convulsions, its skin cracked open, and blood poured from its seven orifices, dying on the spot.

Xu Mu examined the turtle’s body, confirming that it had only died due to an excess of energy before finally relaxing.

Although theoretically, she had no reason to harm him, it was always better to be a little cautious. One should always be prepared for uncertainties.

After verifying that everything was safe, Xu Mu took out a pellet and swallowed it.

This thousand-year-old sea valley was as good as a spiritual object, and it could be eaten raw.

Similarly, Spirit Rice and Spirit Grain could be eaten raw too, but they were not easily digestible and didn’t taste good.

However, Xu Mu was a body cultivation cultivator and with the help of his system, whether he ate raw or cooked food made little difference to him.

After the Dragon Blood Sea Valley entered his stomach, it was quickly absorbed, converted into a continuous stream of energy, and distributed to every corner of his body.

“Not bad! Such a small pellet is equivalent to a tier three Yellow Dragon Pill, and it’s easier to digest and absorb, with even purer energy!”

Although the energy of a single pellet was small, he had five hundred catties of it. If this quantity were converted to Yellow Dragon Pills, then probably he could pile up the entire cave with it.

Xu Mu was very satisfied with the result.

This Dragon Blood Sea Valley was enough to advance his Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body to the master level.

After that, like eating candy, he gulped down several hundred to a thousand sea valley pellets and also kept adding points to the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body through the system.

[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body +10]!

[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body +10]!

[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body +10]!

The energy transformed from the sea valley was quickly absorbed by the system, and it was then converted into new energy, continuously remodeling Xu Mu’s body.

Crackle, crackle!

Golden thunder emerged, almost obliterating the entire cave.

Days passed in the blink of an eye.

That day, finally, the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body was upgraded to the master level.

[Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body Master; 1/2.56W]

Boom!

Endless golden thunder surged out from Xu Mu’s body, flowing like liquid gold, covering most of his body, and eventually solidifying into an impressively mighty armor.

With this upgrade, besides the thunder transforming entirely into gold and the thunder clothes becoming thunder armor, the originally raging might of the thunder also became more subtle, seemingly returning to its primitive state.

“And also this!”

Xu Mu took out the Thunder Slash Sword and infused energy into it. Instantly the whole sword was covered in thunder, and then it kept transforming, eventually becoming a thunder giant sword several meters long.

Every casual swing of it generated a terrifying air of oppression.

“It’s weird that even though I’m a cultivator, I increasingly behave like a warrior!”

Xu Mu mocked himself.

His cultivation increased too slowly, and his body refinement progressed way too fast. Thus, to end fights as fast as possible, he had no choice but to engage in close combat every time.

“I wonder how powerful it is? Can I exchange a few moves with someone at the Golden Core Stage?”

Previously, during the Foundation Establishment Stage, he was already among the top cultivators. Now that he had improved so much more, he should not be far from being capable of beating Golden Core cultivators, even if he couldn’t win.

However, true to Xu Mu’s personality, he wouldn’t go around picking fights without a reason, even if he had surpassed the Golden Core Stage.

Besides improving his strength, the two divine skills related to the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body, Thunder Control and Blazing Thunder Wings, also made various degrees of improvement.

Additionally, his lifespan was also somewhat increased, now reaching 412 years.

Judging from this progress, it seems feasible to reach 500 years before breaking through to the Golden Pill Stage.

After upgrading the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body, Xu Mu didn’t leave.

He still had plenty of Dragon Blood Sea Valley left. Although it wasn’t enough for further upgrading the Heavenly Extreme Purple Thunder Body, it would be more than enough for upgrading the Twelve Startle Cicada Skill.

Once he had elevated the Twelve Startle Cicada Skill to perfection, he would be able to fuse two more bloodlines, and also increase his control over the Illusionary Thunder Shark bloodline by another tier.

But after this round of upgrades, the next round would be more challenging.

Therefore, he must plan very carefully for his remaining two bloodlines.

[Twelve Startle Cicada Skill +10]!

[Twelve Startle Cicada Skill +10]!

[Twelve Startle Cicada Skill +10]!

[Twelve Startle Cicada Skill Perfect; l/iow]!

After completing the upgrade, Xu Mu didn’t rush to find new monster beast blood for fusion.

He was not interested in ordinary monster beasts, while the precious monster beast blood wasn’t something he could find just by looking for it. Therefore, being anxious wouldn’t help anyway.

Of course, he wasn’t idle either. He had already asked Xu Yiren to find out about it.

At the same time, he had also asked her to help collect the herbs needed for refining the tier six True Element Pill. He planned to refine the True Element Pill and use it to break through to the Late Foundation Establishment Stage. Therefore, he needed to accumulate Luck Value to upgrade the skill of refining True Element Pill. There was really no need for him to run around aimlessly.

Days passed by one after another. Xu Mu spent his days either promptly training or wandering in and out of the caves of Xu Yiren and Zhang Tianluo.

As Xu Yiren kept maturing and became increasingly enchanting, Zhang Tianluo, astonishingly –

Grew up!
