"Qianxue's mother was injured when she was pregnant with her. She passed away after giving birth to Qianxue. Her father died in an accident more than ten years ago." Tang Tianhao continued, "Back then, I suspected that Qianxue's mother and father's death had something to do with the Marionette Sect. However, I couldn't find any evidence."
Chu Mu was surprised. He thought that Tang Tianhao was talking about Qianxue's family background. He didn't expect that Tang Tianhao would change the topic to the Marionette Sect.
"This time, Qianxue was captured. If it weren't for your help, she would have become the fertilizer for the Marionette Sect's Black Blood Lotus. My only granddaughter would have died," Tang Tianhao said. Tang Qianxue was his only granddaughter now, his only blood relative. She was extremely precious. He was also grooming Tang Qianxue as the future successor of the Tang Clan.
"Family Head Tang, this is nothing," Chu Mu said. He didn't want to take the credit.
"I won't say too many words of thanks." Tang Tianhao smiled and said, "This time, I invited you here because I heard from Qianxue that you seem to have a way to deal with the Puppet School's Unbreakable Puppet Body. You should know that the Puppet School is proud of their Unbreakable Puppet Body, which is half a level or even one level stronger than their own power. Without a more powerful power, it would be impossible to break their defense, which would make them invincible, which is very troublesome."
"Although we didn't find any evidence for the death of Qianxue's parents, after many years of investigation, we found that it was indeed related to the Marionette Sect. Moreover, Qianxue was almost turned into fertilizer this time. I can't just let it go. The Tang Family and the Marionette Sect must fight to the death." Tang Tianhao said sincerely, "However, the Indestructible Puppet Body of the Marionette Sect is very strong and difficult to deal with. Although the Tang Family's overall strength is above the Marionette Sect, once the war starts and the Marionette Sect is destroyed, the Tang Family won't be any better."
"I do have a secret art called the Light of Puppet Destruction. The only use of this secret art is to target puppets. When cultivated to the peak, it can weaken the power of puppets by thirty percent. It is also effective against unbreakable puppets." Chu Mu said.
"Thirty percent!" Tang Tianhao's eyes lit up. He knew what thirty percent meant.
In terms of numbers, a Dark Star level expert's Unbreakable Puppet Body had a defense of ten. Then, his opponent's attack power had to exceed ten to be able to break it. However, in this ratio, an attack power of more than ten had already surpassed the limit of a Dark Star level expert, and was beginning to enter the Bright Moon level.
If it was weakened by 30%, it would be reduced from 10% to 7%. At that time, the attack power of the Dark Star level would be enough to break through the defense of the Indestructible Puppet Body.
"Not only can the Light of Puppet Destruction weaken the Unbreakable Puppet's defense by 30%, it can also weaken its self-healing ability and reaction speed by 30%." Chu Mu added. Tang Tianhao's eyes shone brightly. The Light of Puppet Destruction was more powerful than he had imagined.
"Little Friend Chu, I wonder if you can teach the Light of Puppet Destruction to my Tang Family. The Tang Family is willing to pay a sufficient price." Tang Tianhao's breathing quickened. His eyes were filled with eagerness and hope.
Thinking about it, if the experts of the Tang Family all cultivated the Light of Puppet Destruction, they would have a great advantage against the Marionette Sect.
"I do have something that I need your help with." Chu Mu smiled. "I obtained some Black Blood Lotus seeds from the Evil Lotus Cave of the Marionette Sect. I hope to refine them into Ancient Saint Blood Lotus Elixir. I wonder if you know any alchemists who can do it."
"No problem." Tang Tianhao agreed without hesitation. "Also, what else do you need? Feel free to let me know."
"I'm afraid I'll have to stay in the Tang Family for a while," Chu Mu said.
"Little friend, you can stay for as long as you want. You can even treat the Tang Family as your own home." Tang Tianhao smiled. In fact, he really hoped that Chu Mu would stay. He was a talented person. If he joined the Tang Family, the Tang Family's strength would increase again. In the future, the Tang Family would be as powerful as the Sin Yan City's Governor's Palace.
Then, Chu Mu taught the Light of Puppet Destruction to Tang Tianhao. He also took out 24 Black Blood Lotus seeds and gave them to Tang Tianhao.
"Little friend, don't worry. The most accomplished alchemist in Sin Yan City, Saint Master Zeng, owes the Tang Family a favor. It won't be difficult to ask him to refine the Ancient Saint Blood Lotus Elixir," Tang Tianhao said solemnly after keeping the 24 lotus seeds.
This was a trade. Chu Mu taught the Light of Puppet Destruction, and Tang Tianhao was responsible for refining the 24 lotus seeds into the Ancient Saint Blood Lotus Elixir. Of course, in order to refine the Ancient Saint Blood Lotus Elixir, other than the Black Blood Lotus Elixir, other spiritual herbs were also needed. Chu Mu didn't have to think about this. Tang Tianhao would naturally arrange it.
They both took what they needed and didn't owe each other anything.
The Ancient Sacred Blood Lotus Pill was a pill suitable for seventh or eighth rank sacred bodies to consume and refine. It was extremely precious and hard to come by. Using the Ancient Sacred Blood Lotus Pill and the Puppet Breaking Light to exchange for it, Chu Mu felt that it was worth it.
As for saving Tang Qianxue, it was indeed convenient for Chu Mu. Moreover, he was going to stay in the Tang Family for a while.
After they finished talking about business, Tang Tianhao immediately sent someone to pass down the cultivation method of the Light of Puppet Destruction to the top three experts of the Tang Family. He wanted them to cultivate it as soon as possible and strive to reach the peak.
Then, he invited Chu Mu to have a meal together.
Other than Chu Mu and Tang Tianhao, there was only Tang Qianxue at the meal. The three of them drank some good wine and it was a very pleasant meal.
"Big Brother Chu, will you leave Sin City?" Tang Qianxue asked with her eyes wide open.
"In a while," Chu Mu said.
"Oh." Tang Qianxue seemed to be in low spirits. Tang Tianhao saw it and didn't know what to think.
"Tang Family Head, Qianxue, I will be in seclusion for a while to improve my cultivation," Chu Mu said.
"Young friend, don't worry and cultivate. No one will disturb you," Tang Tianhao said.
Chu Mu got up and left, returning to Green Bamboo Garden.
…
The Dragon Origin Elixir in Chu Mu's Dantian spun continuously, automatically absorbing the Qi of Heaven and Earth outside his body. It was converted into pure Origin Qi and poured into Chu Mu's Dantian, turning it into Divine Barren Sword Essence. This allowed him to cultivate 24 hours a day. Moreover, he was cultivating at the peak of the Eighth Sky of the Immemorial Realm.
After putting up the sign for seclusion and setting up layers of seals, Chu Mu took out two bottles of Ancient Saint Breaking Limit Elixir.
When he first took the elixir, it took Chu Mu ten days to refine the first one. But now, his Saint Body had reached the early stage of the Sixth Level, which was much stronger than the middle stage of the Fifth Level. Therefore, his ability to refine the elixir naturally increased.
To the early stage of the Sixth Level Chu Mu, the Ancient Saint Breaking Limit Elixir was still powerful. Therefore, he didn't dare to take too many at once. He took them one by one.
After the elixir was dissolved, his body started to heat up. It was as if his blood was boiling. His skin turned red and hot steam rose from his body.
His bones seemed to be on the verge of melting, but they didn't. It was much better than the last time.
Five days later, the first Ancient Saint Breaking Limit Elixir was completely refined by Chu Mu. He felt that the power of his Saint Body seemed to have increased a little. In a spurt of energy, Chu Mu took out the second Ancient Saint Breaking Limit Elixir and consumed it.
There were a total of twenty Ancient Saint Breaking Limit Elixirs. It took a long time to refine all of them, but Chu Mu didn't mind. He was now in a relatively safe environment. He had time to properly refine the elixirs.
…
"Family Head, is this Puppet Breaking Light really effective on the Unbreakable Puppet Body?" A Dark Star expert of the Tang Family asked in surprise.
"Get a puppet to test it out first," Tang Tianhao said. It wasn't that he didn't trust Chu Mu, but he felt more assured after testing it out personally.
Soon, a puppet was sent over.
The puppet was activated. Tang Tianhao pointed his finger and a pale yellow light shot out. It was the First Level Puppet Breaking Light.
After the Puppet Breaking Light hit the puppet, the aura emitted by the puppet started to decrease.
"It's decreased by about ten percent."
"This is the First Level Puppet Breaking Light. It can weaken by ten percent. The Second Level Puppet Breaking Light can weaken by twenty percent. The Third Level Puppet Breaking Light can weaken by thirty percent."
"Haha, if the Puppet Breaking Light is really effective on the Unbreakable Puppet Body of the Marionette Sect, then when we all cultivate the Puppet Breaking Light to the third level, it will gradually be the end of the Marionette Sect."
"That's right, the end of the Marionette Sect has arrived."
Originally, they were very wary of the Marionette Sect's Unbreakable Puppet Body. Once they fought, if they couldn't break through the opponent's defense, they wouldn't be able to win. They might even be defeated. Now, with the Puppet Breaking Light, the Third Level Puppet Breaking Light could weaken the Unbreakable Puppet Body by thirty percent. With their strength, it was enough to break through and kill the Unbreakable Puppet Body.
At the thought of this, the three strongest experts of the Tang Family were all very motivated.
"By the way, Family Head, where is that Chu Mu you mentioned? Where is he now? "A Dark Star expert asked.
"Why, Lei Zi, are you itching for a fight again?" Before Tang Tianhao could answer, someone laughed.
"Hehe, I heard that after using the Puppet Breaking Light, he killed the Dark Star Sword Saint of the Marionette Sect. He must be very strong. Furthermore, he came from the outside world. I'm very curious." Lei Zi laughed.
"Little Friend Chu is now in seclusion. When he comes out, if he is willing, you can go and challenge him." Tang Tianhao laughed.
Time flew, and five days passed. Chu Mu's Saint Body had reached the Middle Level Six from the Early Level Six. He had become stronger, and the speed of refining the Ancient Saint Breaking Limit Elixir had increased. Originally, it would take five days to refine one elixir, but now, it could be refined in less than four days.
Based on the current efficiency, my Saint Body should be able to reach the peak of Level Six after refining all the Ancient Saint Breaking Limit Elixirs, Chu Mu thought.
