Mortal: Even with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, I still have to try and get my hands on the Little Gree
Chapter 85: Pretending to be a Nascent Soul stage cultivator in front of two seniors, I was actually
The ghostly mist in the Chaotic Star Sea is actually a sign of Rahu feeding.
And that dark and mysterious place was naturally inside Rahu's belly.
Therefore, Mu Yu actually entered Luo Hou's body, and because of the spiritual energy within Luo Hou's body, all his magical power and divine sense became unusable, turning him into a mortal.
Within Rahu's body, it would be extremely difficult for a mortal to communicate with Rahu's true form.
After all, who would pay attention to what a bacterium inside their body is saying?
The only hope is that when they escape Rahu's body, their magical power will be restored.
If Luo Hou notices at that time, he might have a chance to say a few words to Mu Yu.
Fine, if it doesn't work this time, then I'll try again after I reach the Nascent Soul stage.
With a cultivation level at the Nascent Soul stage, one should be able to be noticed by Rahu's true form, and smuggling into the Spirit Realm does not necessarily require Rahu's help.
This Rahu is not yet fully grown, and there is also a Wandering Kunpeng nearby as an opponent. The probability of successfully crossing into the Spirit Realm by relying on it is actually not very high.
But if you do it right, it's worth a try.
After all, setting up a reverse spirit passage in the spirit realm would require a lot of spirit stones, and once you get up there, there would be a lot of trouble.
Using Rahu to smuggle into the spirit world would be much simpler.
……
Two months later, Mu Yu successfully met with Han Li, Yuan Yao, and Yan Li, who had come to visit.
The worst didn't happen; Yanli's luck wasn't so bad that she had to die.
This also proves that so-called fate can indeed be changed.
After checking Yuan Yao's cultivation progress, Mu Yu chatted casually for a few minutes, then told Yuan Yao and Yan Li to prepare to leave the Chaotic Star Sea in a while.
Yanli doesn't care, but Yuanyao is someone I absolutely must keep in my grasp.
With his Yin-type body, he can definitely exchange a lot of good things with Qing Yuanzi.
As for whether the transaction process is safe...
Possessing a talent for seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune, Mu Yu has nothing to fear.
After Yuan Yao and Yan Li went back to pack their things, Mu Yu and Han Li talked about the Underworld.
Upon hearing that in the Land of Desolation, all cultivators would lose their magical powers and revert to being mortals, Han Li immediately refused.
Having just ventured into the lair of a level-nine demon beast, Han Li had absolutely no desire to take any more risks.
Not to mention, in the Netherworld, one will be reduced to a mortal again, making the danger level extremely high. To describe it as a near-death experience would be an understatement.
Han Li didn't even ask what he would gain in the Netherworld.
Hearing Han Li's refusal, Mu Yu wasn't particularly surprised.
Originally, he intended to use the Void Heaven Cauldron to lure Han Li into taking a risk.
But after thinking about it, he gave up. Han Li was not a greedy person, and the Void Heaven Cauldron could not tempt him.
While the Void Heaven Cauldron isn't very useful after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, it can still be used during the Infant stage.
Since Han Li wasn't going, Mu Yu would go himself, which would be a good opportunity to see if Luo Hou had any other treasures inside him.
Of course, if he didn't have the talent to avoid misfortune and seek good fortune, Mu Yu would never go to a place like the Underworld.
But since we know there's no danger, what's there to be afraid of?
Wouldn't it be better to have enough soul stones to refine Nascent Soul stage puppets? Wouldn't it be better to harvest a massive amount of ten-thousand-year-old Xuan Jade from Chen Shui?
There are also spirit-summoning talismans, the legacy of Nascent Soul stage cultivators, and so on.
Of course, more importantly, we should try to communicate with Rahu.
"Since you don't want to go, then I'll go instead."
"That's fine, I was just reluctant to go through the traps left behind by the Spirit Control Sect anyway."
"I'll take you to the vicinity of the ancient teleportation array in a few days. I'll finish repairing the ancient teleportation array first, and then I'll teleport over from Tiannan to pick you up after a while."
"If anyone shows up during this time, just run away."
Han Li didn't quite understand some of what Mu Yu said, but he was already used to Mu Yu's style.
Because sometimes, Mu Yu's words contained hints about the future that should have happened, but which wouldn't happen now, Han Li naturally didn't quite understand the meaning behind them.
After hesitating for a moment, Han Li still inquired about his gains in the Netherworld.
When Han Li learned that there were only some soul crystals used to refine puppets, and things like sinking water that were temporarily useless, his interest immediately vanished.
If it were something that could improve his cultivation or be related to breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage, Han Li might be willing to try it. But there was no need to risk it for those external things.
Although Han Li's cultivation level has not yet caught up with Mu Yu's, he already understands Mu Yu very well and knows that it's okay if he rejects him.
Therefore, Han Li was naturally unwilling to take the risk in such a place and refused outright.
……
Before leaving, Mu Yu encountered the Twin Saints of Tianxing once again, and also met Ling Yuling, who had come with them.
The Ling Yuling I saw this time had fully blossomed. Not only had her cultivation reached the Core Formation stage, but her appearance had also become even more beautiful than before.
But at this moment, Mu Yu wasn't very interested in Ling Yuling. After all, the Twin Saints of Tianxing were still alive, and Mu Yu didn't want to put two mountains on his head.
"Fellow Daoist Mu... has already reached the Nascent Soul stage?"
Wen Qing spoke first, her tone carrying a strange feeling.
Clearly, the information that Mu Yu had formed his Nascent Soul on an island near Qiyuan Island had already reached the ears of the Star Palace Twin Saints.
Even if a normal incarnation's cultivation level increases, it would not cause such a significant disturbance.
The Chaotic Star Sea is vast, but thanks to the teleportation array in Tianxing City, the Star Palace can obtain almost all important information about the entire Chaotic Star Sea in the first instance.
"Yes, I've reached the Nascent Soul stage. Now I no longer need to lie or deceive myself. To be honest, I was quite nervous pretending to be a Nascent Soul stage cultivator in front of you two seniors."
Mu Yu sensed the probing in Wen Qing's words and, fortunately, stopped maintaining that flawed lie.
Upon hearing Mu Yu's admission, both Ling Xiaofeng and Wen Qing's expressions turned somewhat unpleasant.
After all, it was rather laughable that they, as late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators, had been deceived for so long by a cultivator who was only at the Core Formation stage.
In fact, if Mu Yu hadn't admitted it to his face at that moment, the two Heavenly Saints would still have had no way to confirm Mu Yu's identity.
After all, what Mu Yu showed had nothing to do with Core Formation stage cultivators, or even the vast majority of Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
"Fellow Daoist, you are only at the Nascent Soul stage now. Aren't you worried that my wife and I will take action and capture you?"
Ling Xiaofeng, standing to the side, was almost unable to contain his anger.
But Wen Qing, standing beside Ling Xiaofeng, still blocked his path, preventing him from making a move.
Even if she was deceived, the feeling that Ling Mingjue gave her could not lie.
Taking action could really lead to death.
Faced with Ling Xiaofeng's questioning, Mu Yu smiled calmly and said:
"Of course... I'm not afraid!"
"Didn't you two learn of the existence of the Immortal-Slaying Pearl in my possession from the Nascent Soul stage cultivators who accompanied me to the Void Heaven Palace?"
"Or perhaps you two wish to verify the authenticity of that Immortal-Slaying Pearl yourself?"
The Immortal-Slaying Pearl? Of course, the Twin Saints of the Heavenly Stars knew about this thing. They even knew everything that happened during the entire treasure hunt in the Void Heaven Palace.
It was knowing these things, combined with the signs that Mu Yu had recently broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, that aroused some suspicion in the Star Palace Twin Saints.
But until Mu Yu admitted it, the two Saints of the Star Palace still dared not test Mu Yu's identity.
"The Immortal-Slaying Pearl, possessing this item is indeed enough to protect oneself from us."
"But with such a rare treasure, even if you are not a true Nascent Soul stage expert, you should at least be considered their descendant."
"May I ask... if you could introduce us to someone?"
Wen Qing tried her best to maintain a gentle tone, but deep down she couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
Having wasted most of their lives on a single Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, they now have almost no hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage with their remaining lifespan.
The person before him, however, possessed a variety of treasures far exceeding what he could currently possess at his level.
Sometimes, a person's fate is decided at birth.
Upon hearing Wen Qing's words, Mu Yu smiled but remained silent. Instead, he handed over a jade slip containing records of some precious materials unique to the Chaotic Star Sea.
Since we're planning to leave the Chaotic Star Sea, we should naturally bring back some local specialties.
Ling Xiaofeng took the jade slip and glanced at it, his face immediately turning ashen. Wen Qing followed suit, her expression equally unpleasant.
"It's just an introduction, Fellow Daoist Mu, isn't this asking for far too much?"
Mu Yu shook his head and said:
"No, it's not a recommendation. I'm just telling you the location of these Nascent Soul stage cultivators. If you need them, go find them yourselves."
"At the same time, you are not allowed to mention my existence."
"I don't care what the consequences will be if I say it."
These conditions were far too harsh, and Ling Xiaofeng really wanted to turn around and leave.
But after thinking for a moment, Wen Qing nodded in agreement.
They are just external things; compared to the opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, they are nothing.
Even if that sliver of opportunity is almost nonexistent, the Star Palace Twin Saints will certainly not give up.
Hearing Wen Qing agree, Mu Yu wasn't worried about her going back on her word and said directly:
"Currently, there are probably only seven or eight Nascent Soul stage cultivators in the entire human realm. Two of them have already gone into seclusion, and no one knows whether they are still alive."
"Among them, Xiang Zhili's whereabouts are unpredictable. He often disguises himself as a Qi Refining stage cultivator and infiltrates various sects to search for information about the Reverse Spirit Passage."
"Therefore, if you want to see a senior in the Nascent Soul stage, you can only go to the Great Jin."
"As for the Great Jin Dynasty, Old Ghost Bai is the Supreme Elder of the Taiyi Sect. If you want to find him, you should be able to, but he will probably go into seclusion soon."
"Hu Qinglei, Old Demon Hu is the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect. He likes beautiful women, is skilled in dual cultivation techniques, and is not easy to talk to."
"But if the price is right, we might be able to make some deals with him."
"And there's Old Monster Feng. If you want to find him, you can go to the Yin Demon Sect. There's a Nascent Soul stage elder there who's a descendant of Old Monster Feng. He should be able to contact him, but I don't know exactly who he is."
"Besides that, there is the old demon Che from the demon race. That guy is the master of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley and has a Ten Thousand Demon Banner that is comparable to a Heaven-Reaching Spiritual Treasure."
"That's about it. Besides these, there are probably some fragmented souls of demons from the spirit realm that have come down here, but I'm not sure exactly how many there are or where they are."
The more the Heavenly Star Twin Saints listened to Mu Yu's account, the stranger it seemed.
Initially, they only hoped to obtain a Nascent Soul stage expert. If they paid some price, perhaps they would have a sliver of hope of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage.
But now, as Mu Yu listed almost all the Nascent Soul stage experts in the entire human realm, the anger of being mocked in the hearts of the Star Palace Twin Saints had long since disappeared, replaced by a bone-chilling cold.
How could Mu Yu know such accurate information about so many Nascent Soul stage cultivators? What exactly is his identity?
"Fellow Daoist Mu... you are indeed very knowledgeable."
Wen Qing spoke somewhat awkwardly, a hint of embarrassment in his words.
At this moment, Wen Qing felt somewhat fortunate that he and his wife had not gone too far. Although some conflicts still arose, there was no irreconcilable hatred between them.
"Not really, just that I know a little more."
"The information I told you before, except for the identity, is basically true."
"It's fair to say that if you really have information about the Reverse Spirit Passage, you might actually be able to obtain the opportunity to break through to the Nascent Soul stage from a Nascent Soul stage cultivator."
"Of course, there's also a chance they'll directly search your soul."
Mu Yu irresponsibly shared his guesses, expressing his great curiosity about the fate of the Star Palace Twin Saints.
As for the Primordial Magnetic Mountain...
With his Heavenly Spiritual Root, he naturally wouldn't go looking for trouble now.
If needed after reaching the Nascent Soul stage, one can directly bring the Primordial Magnetic Divine Mountain to the Spirit Realm and cultivate this technique after reaching the Void Refinement stage; there will be plenty of time.
……
After obtaining a large quantity of high-grade materials from the Twin Saints of Tianxing, Mu Yu led Han Li, Yuan Yao, and Yan Li to the vicinity of Xiaohuan Island.
At this time, a Foundation Establishment cultivator was already in charge of managing this small island.
Too lazy to look for anywhere else, Mu Yu simply released the pressure of a Core Formation stage cultivator, scared him for a bit, and then gave him some spirit stones to send him away.
"You will stay here for a while, a few months at the shortest, and a few years at the longest, and then I will come back to pick you up."
"If you encounter danger, you can take out this token of the Twin Saints of Heavenly Stars, and ordinary people will not make things difficult for you."
He gave a few simple instructions, left the token given to him by the Star Palace Twin Saints, and then entrusted most of the storage bags to Han Li for safekeeping.
Mu Yu has always carried a considerable number of storage bags, which have become quite bulky and somewhat restrictive of his movements.
When you have magic power, it's fine; you can use the Invisibility Veil to cover yourself up.
But if you take these things to the underworld, you'll probably lose at least half of them.
Therefore, Mu Yu had no choice but to ask Han Li to keep it safe for her.
This is also why Mu Yu asked Han Li and the others to wait on Xiao Huan Island.
Because after he returned from the teleportation array in Tiannan, he really didn't want to go to Tianxing City again.
After finishing these miscellaneous tasks, Mu Yu flew towards the direction of the ancient teleportation array.
After spending some time repairing the ancient teleportation array, Mu Yu then rearranged several killing arrays around it.
Now that Mu Yu has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, the power of the formations he set up has also increased slightly. Although these formations cannot kill Nascent Soul cultivators, they can easily kill a few Core Formation cultivators.
Furthermore, the Yu Ling Sect might not actually be able to discover that the other end of this teleportation array has been repaired.
Even if they find it, they may not be able to find another Great Teleportation Order.
Furthermore, even if another Great Teleportation Token is found, the first batch of teleporters may not necessarily be Nascent Soul stage cultivators.
If the one who came was not a Nascent Soul stage expert, but a Core Formation stage expert, then dying in this great formation would be his final fate.
If your luck is really that bad, then let them come over.
We'll go back to the Spirit Control Sect later and snatch that ancient teleportation array back.
In the world of cultivation, strength is ultimately the most important factor.
After confirming that he had returned to Tiannan and could still travel to the Chaotic Star Sea via the teleportation array, Mu Yu flew towards a place called Xuan Yin Land.
The Xuan Yin Land is where the ghostly mist will appear.
Such places are not common in the Chaotic Star Sea, and there is only one place that was once known as a monster tomb.
Therefore, Mu Yu doesn't need to worry about going to the wrong place.
As for whether Luo Hou will still appear without Yuan Yao using the resurrection spell.
Every time Rahu appears, the ghostly mist will open simultaneously in various parts of the human realm, not just in one place. Therefore, whether Yuan Yao exists or not is actually irrelevant.
At most, the celestial signs created by the resurrection technique are more attractive to Rahu.
However, this does not mean that Rahu will not appear without such celestial signs.
It should be about time...
To prepare for the impending arrival of the aura of spiritual depletion, Mu Yu took out the long spear magic weapon, a high-grade spirit stone, two small jade bottles containing ten-thousand-year-old spiritual milk, and some small items such as bows and arrows and throwing knives, and hung them on his body.
Finally, the Soul-Crying Beast was released, and all that was left to do was wait.
Of course, most importantly, one can use their innate ability to seek good fortune and avoid misfortune to confirm whether the trip will go smoothly.
It's just a minor good omen, but as long as it's not a bad omen, it's fine.
Time slipped away little by little as we waited.
But what Mu Yu first saw was not the ghostly mist, but a purple streak of light escaping.
After releasing his divine sense, a strange expression flashed in Mu Yu's eyes.
The original main characters, Yuan Yao and Han Li, will no longer appear here.
But unexpectedly, the supporting character who was supposed to appear appeared in a different form in front of Mu Yu.
Within that purple light was none other than Zi Ling of the Miaoyin Sect.
The magic weapon she used to escape must have been the one that Mu Yu personally crafted and gifted to the Miaoyin Sect; otherwise, Zi Ling probably wouldn't have been able to escape here.
When he first arrived in Tianxing City, the Miaoyin Sect did help him solve a lot of troubles, which is why Mu Yu crafted a magic weapon with extremely fast escape speed and gave it to Zhou Yuan and Wang Heng.
But it seems that this treasure did not allow them to survive.
No one knows what happened to Miaoyin Sect, but Ziling's choice has changed.
Under Mu Yu's watchful gaze, the purple light seemed to lose its aim and darted around erratically, eventually arriving directly at the island where Mu Yu was located.
Zi Ling's pale face and pitiful expression were truly heartbreaking.
Meanwhile, Wen Tianren and the others who rushed over from behind wore various mocking expressions.
"Dao... Fellow Daoist, run! They are from Holy Demon Island..."
