"Child, some people are like dragons in the Ninth Heaven. If you can't keep up with them, you can only look up to them." Tang Tianhao said to Tang Qianxue, sighing softly. He couldn't help but feel some regret in his heart.
"I understand, Grandpa." Tang Qianxue nodded forcefully. Even so, tears had already blurred her eyes. A kind of good feeling that gradually turned into love was buried deep in her heart, and it was being commemorated.
Wiping away the tears in her eyes, Tang Qianxue's gaze became firm and sharp, as if she had made up her mind.
… …
After leaving the Young Lord's Residence, Chu Mu didn't return to the manor. Instead, he quickly left Sin City and headed towards the northern part of Sin City. That was the direction towards the Five Great Cities.
Apart from a few people, no one else knew about the battle in the Young Lord's Residence. Even if they knew, they didn't dare to spread the news. Therefore, no one knew that the second strongest person in Sin City, the strongest and most talented person in the younger generation of Sin City, Young Lord Helian Xue Yi, had been defeated. It was a direct confrontation. He was defeated by a genius of the younger generation. In the end, he had no choice but to use a treasure to redeem his life.
Although others didn't know, it didn't mean that it didn't happen. Being defeated by Chu Mu's sword was a great blow to Helian Xue Yi.
Up until now, his life had been smooth sailing. His strength had been constantly increasing. No one could be his opponent. Even the experts of the older generation had been defeated by him.
Losing a battle and using a treasure to redeem his life made Helian Xue Yi feel humiliated. It was a great humiliation. However, he didn't want to die, so he could only do that.
After falling into a depression for a while, Helian Xue Yi thought it through and understood. He pulled himself together. His entire being was refreshed. It was as if he had been reborn from the ashes of a raging fire.
"When I truly have the strength of the Bright Yang Realm, I will definitely go to the Five Great Cities to find you. Then, we will fight again." Helian Xue Yi stared into the distance and said to himself. Then, he began to cultivate in seclusion.
… …
A few days later, Chu Mu walked out of Sin Yan City and arrived outside the city without slowing down.
Right now, Chu Mu's strength was at the peak of the Bright Moon Realm, and his speed was also at the peak of the Bright Moon Realm. If he wanted to return to the five cities at this speed, he would need less than four years; perhaps three years would be enough. However, Chu Mu chose to use the shuttle instead.
The speed of the Premium Flying Shuttle was extremely fast, and it could reach the speed of an ordinary Nine-star Saint. Although it was not as fast as a Bright Moon Saint running on the ground, the difference was not too big.
Of course, Chu Mu wanted to hurry back to the five great cities as soon as possible. Logically speaking, he should have chosen to rely on his own speed to advance. However, he had obtained the Ancient Saint Blood Lotus Pill and the Heaven Origin Soul Essence from Helian Xue Yi. He planned to refine the Heaven Origin Soul Essence first to raise his own cultivation.
Taking a flying shuttle was the best choice for him to travel and improve his cultivation at the same time.
As he steered the shuttle forward, Chu Mu held the Heaven Origin Soul Essence tightly in his hand and circulated the Divine Wilderness Sword Technique to absorb the pure origin energy within the Heaven Origin Soul Essence.
This piece of Heaven Origin Soul Essence was about the size of a baby's fist. It was milky-white and extremely sturdy. Even the full force attack of a peak Nine-star Saint would not be able to damage it.
Holding it in his hand, Chu Mu could feel the rich and powerful origin energy ripples contained within it. It was an extremely pure origin energy ripple, and its quality was extremely high.
In fact, the Heaven Origin Soul Essence was a kind of essence of the origin energy of heaven and earth. It was similar to the essence of the power of heaven and earth. For example, the Flame Soul Essence, the Wind Soul Essence, and the like were only slightly inferior in value.
Every piece of Heaven Origin Soul Essence was formed from extremely pure origin energy of heaven and earth after a long period of time. As such, the Heaven Origin Soul Essence did not have any impurities. Its quality was at least as pure as the origin energy of a peak Nine-star Saint. Now that Chu Mu was at the peak of the Eighth Heaven of the Wangu Realm, he could directly absorb it and convert it into the Divine Wilderness Sword Essence without spending much effort to refine it.
To Chu Mu, who did not need to comprehend the realms, he only needed to accumulate enough origin energy to rapidly raise his cultivation level and make a breakthrough.
From the peak of the Eighth Heaven of the Wangu Realm to the beginning of the Ninth Heaven of the Wangu Realm, one needed to accumulate a large amount of origin energy. It was even more than the total amount of origin energy needed to advance from the beginning of the Eighth Heaven of the Wangu Realm to the peak of the Eighth Heaven of the Wangu Realm. Normally, even with the Dragon Yuan Pill's continuous absorption and conversion of origin energy, it would still take close to ten years.
But now, Chu Mu only needed to completely absorb the Heaven Origin Soul Essence in his hand, and his cultivation level would successfully advance from the peak of the Eighth Heaven of the Wangu Realm to the beginning of the Ninth Heaven of the Wangu Realm. Once his cultivation level had advanced, his strength would be greatly enhanced. At that time, he would be able to break through the limit of the Bright Moon Realm and reach the Bright Sun Realm.
A Bright Sun Sword Saint was the strongest person in the Land of Exile, second only to the Seven Kings.
Of course, Chu Mu's goal was not to become a Bright Sun Sword Saint. His goal was to have the strength to fight against a peerless expert. Based on the current situation, when his cultivation level reached the peak of the Ninth Heaven of the Wangu Realm and his Sage Body reached the peak of the Ninth Grade, it would not be impossible for him to have the strength to fight against a peerless expert.
Just the thought of fighting against a peerless expert as a Sage was enough to excite anyone.
The Heaven Origin Soul Essence was extremely sturdy, so it was not easy to absorb the pure Origin Energy within it. Even though Chu Mu was at the peak of the Eighth Heaven of the Wangu Realm, his tyrannical Divine Wilderness Sword Origin could only absorb it bit by bit. It was extremely stubborn. If it was an ordinary peak Eighth Heaven of the Wangu Realm, he would not be able to absorb it at all.
"Based on this speed, it will take at least a year to finish absorbing it." Chu Mu thought to himself.
Using a year's time to advance to the beginning of the Ninth Heaven of the Wangu Realm was also very cost-effective. It was much better than using nearly ten years to break through.
Extremely pure Origin Energy was absorbed from the Heaven Origin Soul Essence and poured into Chu Mu's body. It was quickly converted into Divine Wilderness Sword Origin, increasing the amount of Divine Wilderness Sword Origin.
As for the Ancient Sacred Blood Lotus Elixir, there were a total of twenty elixirs in the two bottles. Under the current circumstances, he could not consume them. He could only temporarily stop cultivating his Sage Body and wait until the Heaven Origin Soul Essence was completely absorbed before considering consuming the Ancient Sacred Blood Lotus Elixir.
Outside Sin City, there was a barren and dry land. This was also the Land of Exile. Hence, the climate and topography were similar to the five great cities. However, perhaps because it was at the edge of the Land of Exile, the changes in climate were more frequent and intense.
Nighttime had arrived and it was a suitable time for the Sinners to move about.
Chu Mu had no intention of stopping the flying shuttle and continued to move forward. The speed of the flying shuttle was very fast and its defense was amazing. Even a Silver Sinner would find it difficult to break through.
Under the extremely fast speed of the flying shuttle, once it hit a sinner, even a silver rank sinner would be injured, let alone a bronze or black iron rank sinner. The sinner would be instantly torn apart. To the current Chu Mu, even a silver heart couldn't arouse his interest, unless there was a large amount.
The number of Silver Hearts in Chu Mu's spatial ring was in the thousands, so they were of no use.
The nighttime period could not stop Chu Mu from moving forward. It was the same for the frozen period. Chu Mu continued to move forward and the Heaven Origin Soul Essence was constantly being refined by him.
In the absence of Gold Sinners, Chu Mu's journey was unimpeded.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed. Chu Mu was already far away from Sin City, but he was still very far away from the five great cities.
The further away he was from Sin City, the fewer people there were. After all, the cultivators who left Sin City had a relatively fixed range of activity. Those who dared to leave Sin City were usually very powerful and had sufficient confidence in themselves. There were not many such cultivators.
After half a year, the Heaven Origin Soul Essence in Chu Mu's hand had shrunk quite a bit. It was obvious that he had absorbed it. His Divine Wilderness Sword Essence had also reached the peak of the Eighth Firmament of the Immemorial Realm. Next, he had to continuously accumulate Yuan Qi. Once he had enough, he would break through in one go.
Outside the flying shuttle, the scorching sun hung high in the sky, shining countless rays of light. The rays of light were like swords that sprinkled down on the ground, causing the air to be scorching hot.
On the vast and barren land, there was not a single person in sight. There was only a flying shuttle that was constantly moving forward.
Maintaining the flying shuttle for half a year was obviously not an easy task. It consumed a lot of energy. Fortunately, the flying shuttle used the Sinner's Heart as its energy source.
All he needed to do was throw the Bronze ranked Sinner's Heart into the shuttle's furnace. Once the Sinner's Heart was melted, the energy contained within would be released to supply the shuttle's energy consumption as a driving force.
The flying shuttle's furnace could only melt a Bronze Sinner's Heart at most. It couldn't do anything to a Silver Sinner's Heart. Otherwise, it would be much simpler.
Right now, in the five great cities, something incomparably shocking was happening. However, Chu Mu, who was very far away, didn't know. Only when he returned would he know. Of course, even if he knew now, it wouldn't be of much use.
Time flew by, day by day. The Heaven Origin Soul Essence in his hand was getting smaller and smaller.
The entire Heaven Origin Soul Essence was formed by the pure Yuan Qi of Heaven and Earth. When it was absorbed, its volume would shrink. In the end, the entire Heaven Origin Soul Essence would completely disappear, leaving no impurities behind.
In the ninth month after Chu Mu left Sin Yan City, an incomparably powerful aura suddenly exploded from a black flying shuttle. It was like a storm that spread outwards. Very quickly, the aura quickly retracted.
"Finally, I've broken through."
Inside the flying shuttle, Chu Mu exhaled. His expression was calm. The breakthrough this time was even calmer than before. The Divine Wilderness Sword Essence at the initial stage of the Nine Heavens of Aeon flowed quietly in his meridians.
There was still a small portion of the Heaven Origin Soul Essence in his hand. It was enough for him to stabilize his cultivation after the breakthrough.
