Mortal: Even with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, I still have to try and get my hands on the Little Gree

At this moment, Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul, knowing that the situation was hopeless, was still resisting the fierce attacks of the four Nascent Soul stage cultivators, but he was already powerless to resist.

But his murderous gaze was fixed on Mu Yu.

Because, if Mu Yu hadn't existed, she wouldn't have failed so completely.

Therefore, at this moment, the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor has completely harbored resentment towards Mu Yu.

Even now, Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul still doesn't understand how a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator could possess two spiritual treasures, an Immortal Extinction Pearl, and a rare treasure like the Demon Dragon Blade.

More importantly, he was even able to command other Nascent Soul stage cultivators.

Such cultivation level couldn't possibly belong to someone from the spirit realm.

With such blatant audacity, isn't he afraid of the other Nascent Soul stage cultivators present killing him and robbing him of his treasures?

Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul was very clear that although human cultivators were not as nakedly cruel as demons, there was no shortage of scheming behind the scenes.

But none of that matters anymore.

Today, this petty thief will surely die!

The True Demon Armor on the surface of Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul instantly disintegrated, turning into endless demonic energy that surged into her body. Then, it transformed into a black light and disappeared before the eyes of the four Nascent Soul stage cultivators.

Even if she doesn't have much demonic energy left, with her current power, she can still kill that annoying little thief.

Watching that black light appear beside him in the blink of an eye, Mu Yu felt no fear whatsoever.

Mu Yu had already prepared for this situation long before the war began... no, even longer than that.

Even the Azure Origin Sword Formation had actually been quietly set up for quite some time.

Just like that, the Azure Origin Sword Formation appeared in front of Mu Yu without warning, and the black light that rushed straight towards him crashed into it.

"A sword formation? You think... you can fight me with something like that?"

A hint of disdain flashed in the eyes of Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul. The difference between the late Nascent Soul stage and the Divine Transformation stage was like an insurmountable chasm, not to mention that Mu Yu was only at the mid-Nascent Soul stage at present.

"My goal has never been to fight against you."

"I don't believe I'm qualified to defeat a Nascent Soul stage cultivator right now."

"But... eliminating the demonic energy in your body shouldn't be a problem."

Mu Yu shook his head and slowly began to speak.

Having already defeated enemies of higher levels multiple times, he knew very well that there was far too much preparation required to do so, and he was not yet capable of killing a Nascent Soul stage being.

But, as he said, his goal was never to kill the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor.

Mu Yu raised his right hand and pointed to the location of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul. In front of his finger was a Qingyuan Sword Pill the size of a soybean, which was spinning rapidly.

At this moment, despite appearing extremely ordinary, the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor felt an immense sense of crisis.

But before she could figure out what had happened, golden lightning bolts shot out from Mu Yu's fingertips...

"Evil-repelling divine thunder!!!"

Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul never expected that it could see such a thing from another person, and that the other person was also at the same mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation level.

If Han Li's previous Evil-Repelling Divine Lightning was enough to amaze Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul, then Mu Yu's Evil-Repelling Divine Lightning made her feel despair.

Countless golden arcs of lightning surged from Mu Yu's fingertips, seemingly without end, striking straight at the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor.

This time, Mu Yu did not condense the Evil-Repelling Divine Lightning into sword threads, nor did he take any control over it. He simply released it from the Azure Origin Sword Pill.

His purpose was not to kill the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul at this moment, but to eliminate the demonic energy in his body as much as possible in preparation for Yin Yue's next move.

And so, the little demonic energy left in the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor was gradually consumed amidst the golden lightning that filled the sky.

Under the power of this scale of exorcising divine lightning, even a Nascent Soul stage demon would have no other recourse but to defend.

She did want to leave, but she had to withstand the massive amount of exorcising divine lightning while also breaking through the sword formation...

More importantly, the original owner of this body was also waiting outside the sword formation, poised to strike.

Once she creates any opening while breaking the formation, there will be no chance left.

Therefore, the current Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor dares not flee, nor can he withstand the pressure; he has almost no other choice.

At first, Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul still held a glimmer of hope, after all, no matter how much Golden Thunder Bamboo there was, it would eventually run out.

At that time, she wouldn't be without hope of killing this despicable thief at the last moment.

However, as time went by, the frequency of the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder remained unchanged, and the demonic energy within the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul was almost completely depleted.

"Impossible! Just how many Golden Thunder Bamboo magic treasures do you have...?"

Finally, the divided soul of the Primordial Ancestor could no longer bear it and could not understand what he was seeing.

Upon hearing this, Mu Yu immediately realized that it was time.

Ignoring the desperate cries of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul, Mu Yu turned to Yin Yue nearby and said, "Yin Yue, we can begin!"

With Mu Yu's prompting, Yin Yue immediately realized what was going on.

"good!"

Yin Yue formed hand seals, her body radiating silver light. Then, a giant silver wolf, over ten feet in size, appeared and pounced on the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul within the sword formation.

Where it had been, only the husk of a seventh-tier spirit fox remained, lying helplessly on the ground.

When the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul within the sword formation saw the giant silver wolf darting in, it immediately realized something.

"You want to use Soul Devouring? You think you can?!"

At this moment, the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor could no longer care about anything else. The remaining demonic energy in his body merged with the essence and blood of this body, turning into a burst of blood flames that spewed out.

At this moment, Mu Yu's magical power surged, and the cyan sword threads within the sword formation, originally used to restrict the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor, gradually dissolved in the blood flames.

Fortunately, these cyan sword threads are only composed of sword energy. If they were the Green Bamboo Bee Cloud Sword itself, it would definitely suffer a great loss of vitality.

Now, it only consumes some magic power, but it can still hold on.

The Azure Origin Sword Formation has suffered considerable damage, but the most crucial formation has not been completely destroyed. It has simply lost its means of attack for the time being and needs time to recover.

Mu Yu took out a jade bottle from his bosom and poured two drops of the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk into his mouth.

After consuming the Ten Thousand Year Spirit Milk, the depleted magical power in his body was instantly restored.

Meanwhile, within the sword formation, the giant silver wolf that the silver moon had transformed into had split into countless silver threads, binding the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor.

The Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul was greatly alarmed and hurriedly used the blood flames on his body to try to burn the silver threads.

But the result, of course, was futile.

After all, in essence, the body used by the divided soul of the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor originally belonged to Yin Yue herself.

At this moment, the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul, whose demonic energy had been completely depleted, was no longer facing a struggle with Yin Yue for control of this body.

In the blink of an eye, the giant wolf that the silver moon had transformed into merged into its own body.

The divided soul of the Primordial Ancestor trembled slightly, and then let out a mournful howl.

The pain of having one's soul devoured is unbearable even for someone who possesses some of the memories and essence of a Mahayana stage expert.

Not to mention the terror of having one's soul devoured bit by bit.

Amidst the mournful howl, Yin Yue's original form reappeared, a two-headed giant wolf appearing before Mu Yu's eyes, its entire body silver except for one wolf head which remained black.

But at this moment, the blackness has gradually receded, as if it is about to end.

Just as the black wolf head had turned more than half silver, a black phantom darted out from the wolf head, seemingly preparing to escape.

Seeing this, Mu Yu snorted coldly and unleashed a divine lightning bolt to ward off evil.

With the warding-off divine thunder about to descend from the front and the soul-devouring pursuit of the Silver Moon from behind, the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul was caught in a dilemma.

In the end, the divided soul of the Primordial Saint Ancestor desperately rushed towards the direction where the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder was descending, preferring death to being devoured by a junior in the Nascent Soul stage.

Unfortunately, Mu Yu's Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder was only intended to stop the enemy; he had no intention of killing the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul.

What if, without the fragment of Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's soul, Yin Yue is unable to awaken the Seven Star Moon Body after returning to the Spirit Realm?

Despite having awakened the Seven Star Moon Body, Yin Yue is constantly being taken care of by that old wolf Ao Xiao.

However, if Yin Yue had not awakened the Seven Star Moon Body, then her existence would naturally be irrelevant, as she would not be able to see Ao Xiao, a powerful cultivator at the Mahayana stage, given her status.

After all, if Silver Moon were truly so favored, how could she have been trapped in the human realm for tens of thousands of years, ignored and neglected?

Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul, resigned to certain death, crashed head-on into the evil-repelling divine lightning that Mu Yu had unleashed, only to discover that it was merely a facade.

The next moment, a silver wolf head sprang out from Yin Yue's body, biting her and then pulling Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul back.

At this moment, the divided soul of the Primordial Ancestor had no power to resist and could only helplessly allow a junior in the Nascent Soul stage to devour her.

The process of devouring the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor did not end so quickly. After Yin Yue completely suppressed the Yuan Sha Saint Ancestor's divided soul, the silver threads on her body gradually spread out, eventually transforming into something resembling a giant cocoon.

The only Nascent Soul stage combatant beside Mu Yu fell silent. After Xiang Zhili and the other two noticed this, their gazes toward Mu Yu contained something strange.

Of course, they weren't so brainless as to do anything to Mu Yu right now.

But some thoughts inevitably surface in my mind.

After all, compared to the spatial node where no hope has yet been seen, Mu Yu possesses two (or three) heaven-reaching spiritual treasures.

Mu Yu remained unperturbed by these complex gazes.

With the talent to avoid danger and seek good fortune, Mu Yu was completely unconcerned about any sneak attacks, not to mention that he was not entirely without ways to counter them.

If pushed to the limit, he will unleash the true Immortal-Slaying Pearl, which, with its auspicious and inauspicious properties, will at least allow him to take away a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.

As for what happens next, just run away.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator, it was impossible for him to sustain a prolonged and energy-intensive pursuit of Mu Yu.

Reaching out, Mu Yu grabbed the body of the level seven spirit fox from the nearby ground and put it into his storage bag. Then, seemingly oblivious to everyone else, he picked up the Eight Spirit Ruler from the ground.

Seeing this, Old Man Feng wanted to say something, but Xiang Zhili stopped him.

Immediately afterwards, the three of them exchanged a flurry of telepathic messages, almost as if discussing how to deal with Mu Yu's presence.

Mu Yu casually toyed with the emerald green ruler in her hand, showing no fear on her face.

If this were in the Spirit Realm, Mu Yu would naturally not dare to be so presumptuous in front of three Nascent Soul stage cultivators.

However, in the human realm, especially since Mu Yu had already refined two spiritual treasures, he didn't really have much fear when facing these Nascent Soul stage experts.

Immediately afterwards, Mu Yu walked towards the three demons of Kunwu Mountain in the corner and said calmly:

"I said before... as long as you do your best, I will let you go after the battle."

"But unfortunately..."

As Mu Yu spoke, a golden light appeared in his hand, and the next moment, grayish-white flames began to burn on Mu Kui and the lion-beast.

"what……"

"Fellow Daoist Mu, please spare my life..."

"I was wrong, I really tried my best just now..."

"..."

With two mournful howls, the two life-bound spirit tablets in Mu Yu's hands gradually burst into flames.

Under normal circumstances, even if Mu Yu used the Azure Origin Sword Pill, it would be impossible for him to kill two level 10 demonic beasts so easily.

But there was nothing they could do; their life-bound spirit tablets had fallen into Mu Yu's hands.

Now they are like fish on Mu Yu's chopping board, utterly powerless to resist.

The next moment, the Azure Origin Sword Pellet in Mu Yu's hand transformed into a golden sword thread, severing their heads.

Then, the Banner of Ten Thousand Souls flew out on its own and took in their half-damaged souls.

At this moment, Guiling was already terrified by the tragic fate of her two companions and couldn't even muster the thought of resisting.

Unexpectedly, after collecting the corpses of Mu Kui and the lion beast, Mu Yu actually returned her life-bound spirit tablet.

"You did a good job; you didn't back down at all."

"I don't know if you're stupid or smarter than them, but this is the outcome you deserve."

After returning Gui Ling's natal spirit tablet, Mu Yu turned and left, not caring what Gui Ling, now free, might do.

Gui Ling looked at the empty space around her, then at Mu Yu's departing figure, and couldn't help but feel a little relieved.

If she didn't have the talent of an immortal body, she probably would have wanted to back down just now!

That retreat could cost you your life.

This person... actually kept his promise and released her free for no reason?

For a moment, Guiling didn't react and was a little hesitant to leave.

But soon, Gui Ling realized what was happening and quickly swallowed the life-bound spirit tablet in her hand. Then she rushed towards the teleportation array without stopping.

……

After waiting for a moment, Silver Moon finally completed the soul devouring and regained her body.

Seeing Yin Yue's completely different appearance, Mu Yu was a little unaccustomed to it for a moment.

He took the Soul Nourishing and Spirit Enriching Pearl from his right hand and handed it, along with the spirit beast pouch containing the level seven four-eyed spirit fox, to Yin Yue.

Yin Yue accepted the two items with a somewhat complicated expression, and said, "Thank you very much, fellow Daoist, for helping me regain my body. I will..."

At this point, Yin Yue seemed to realize something and turned to look at the three Nascent Soul stage cultivators nearby.

"You three can leave now!"

"I will tell Fellow Daoist Mu about the information regarding the spatial node. As for how you want to exchange information about the spatial node with Fellow Daoist Mu, that is none of my business."

"Be careful, Fellow Daoist Mu is my benefactor. If you dare to harm or scheme against him, even if you manage to sneak into the Spirit Realm, you will have no chance of survival."

"Just now, you should have heard about my identity from that demon, right?"

Xiang Zhili and the other two never expected that after they had worked so hard to help Yin Yue defeat that demon, they would be kicked out in the end.

Not only did they not show any gratitude, but they were also unwilling to even tell us about the spatial node?

This situation is clearly unacceptable to the three of them under any circumstances.

"Fairy Linglong, even if the three of us haven't done anything particularly meritorious, we should at least have put in some effort. Please..."

Xiang Zhili spoke with some apprehension.

At this moment, Silver Moon had completely regained her body. Although this body had been damaged a lot in the battle just now, it was still more than capable of killing the three of them.

After all, Yin Yue was now a genuine late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Oh? You don't want to leave?"

Yin Yue didn't give the other party a friendly look at all, and even a hint of murderous intent flashed in her eyes.

Xiang Zhili was startled when he saw this.

But at this point, he was in a bind and didn't know what to say.

Just as the atmosphere was getting tense, Mu Yu spoke up: "Senior Brother Xiang, you should leave here first. Linglong and I have something to say."

"As for the information about the space node, I will inform you after I leave."

With Mu Yu's words as a buffer, Xiang Zhili, despite his dissatisfaction, suppressed his anger and chose to leave.

Seeing this, Old Monster Feng and Old Demon Hu had no choice but to leave as well.

Watching the three Nascent Soul stage cultivators leave, Yin Yue destroyed the teleportation array in this space without hesitation.

Subsequently, the peak Nascent Soul stage cultivator scanned the space with his divine sense, confirming that the three Nascent Soul stage cultivators had not left behind any tricks.

"You're quite clever; you didn't leave any means of eavesdropping. Otherwise, I would definitely have helped you resolve these troubles before I left."

After confirming that it was safe, Yin Yue spoke with satisfaction.

At the same time, Mu Yu also used his talent for seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune to sense the situation, and then took out a jade slip and handed it to Yin Yue.

"If I haven't reached the Spirit Realm by 750 years, I will give this jade slip to your grandfather, Ao Xiao."

"This contains the truth about the demonic calamity, as well as something a Mahayana stage expert has always dreamed of, and news of an expert who is about to break through to the Mahayana stage."

"After reviewing the information in this jade slip, your grandfather and Mo Jianli, a Mahayana stage cultivator from the human race, will surely reopen the Reverse Spirit Channel and pull me up from the human realm."

"Of course, if I arrive in the Spirit Realm in my own way during this period, I will not hand over this jade slip."

"After all, if some aspects of the future are changed, it's not necessarily a good thing for either of us."
