Chapter 656: Mu Taos Breakthrough (1/2)

At first, only Lin Mu heard the cries, but then Jing Luo heard them as well.

”Oh? Just as I asked…” Jing Luo said as he turned his head towards the city.

”What's that seniors?” Mu Niu and others could now hear the sound coming from the city as well.

The sound of cries was mixed and distorted by the time it reached the Mu clan and thus they were unable to tell what exactly they meant.

”That should be the Fei, Hui and Shu clan coming to their senses…” Lin Mu replied, before looking at Mu Tao. ”We should start the process, no use wasting time.” He added.

”Of course, senior.” Mu Tao said before sitting down in the middle of the formation circle.

Jing Luo had only made the initial circle the formation for now so that Mu Tao could take advantage of it. The rest of it could be added later on, once Mu Tao was done with his breakthrough to the Core Condensation realm.

The entire Mu clan had gathered around by now to witness Mu Tao's breakthrough and was quite excited and anxious at the same time.

After the tragedy two years ago, they had only been fed with one bad news after the other and thus their morale was down in the gutter. But now they finally had a little ray of hope that may perhaps lift their spirits.

Lin Mu was also watching on in interest as he wanted to see how a breakthrough to the Core Condensation realm actually happened. This was because Lin Mu had actually not seen anyone breakthrough to the Core condensible realm before.

Even during his own breakthrough, he was asleep and it was brought about due to the bloodline ability of the Great Slumber Bear, the Well of Slumber. Thus, he wanted to see how it would all happen and increase his scope of knowledge.

Mu Tao closed his eyes and let the spirit Qi stir within his body. The bottleneck that had restricted him till now was loosed and now more spirit Qi could finally be condensed within his Dantian. The spirit Qi concentrated around him due to the spirit Qi gathering formation made it easy for him to gather and refine.

In less than ten minutes, Mu Tao had refined the necessary liquid spirit Qi needed to reach the absolute peak of the Qi refining realm. Lin Mu was watching the man with his spirit sense to see his progress as well.

It was here that he saw the unique effect of the Thousand Thread Spirit breath technique that the Mu clan used. The spirit Qi within their body did not exist in the form of spirit Qi wisps, but rather in the form of strings.

The same spherical wisps were morphed into the form of a string and flowed through their meridians and accumulated in the Dantian. Within Mu Tao's body, the strings had reached the absolute peak, and they started to join up.

The process started with a random string that floated within the Dantian but it soon, spread to the others. Soon the entire spirit Qi sea within the Dantian started to spin as string after string joined up until a very long string was formed.
