Chapter 535: Chapter 488: The New Sect_2

Just as a loud explosion was heard, the surrounding the natural forces began to tremble.

Xu Mu felt his arm, numb as if it were paralyzed, and a sliver of fear arose in his heart. Who on earth was this old man? His cultivation was incredibly powerful.

But this was not the time to be pondering such things, he had to focus his attention to deal with the old man.

Seeing Xu Mu’s determination, the old man spoke in a cold tone: “Boy, you’re good. But I hope you can understand one thing. Some people are destined to be wiped out from birth.”

A chill ran down Xu Mu’s spine, he understood that the old man was warning him that his cultivation was inadequate, he needed to train harder.

Without any heed for caution, he drew out his Sky-splitting Halberd and charged at the old man.

He knew, the Sky-splitting Halberd was his strongest weapon in the Divinity Transformation Stage, his last resort.

The old man appeared to see Xu Mu’s determination, immediately he also dropped all pretenses, as his cultivation operated at full power, a powerful force burst from within him, directly attacking Xu Mu.

Xu Mu only felt as if his body had been struck by a powerful force, being blown away, and landed heavily on the ground.

He felt as though his internal organs had been displaced, there was also an uncontrollable trace of blood dribbling down the corner of his mouth.

He knew there was a vast disparity between his strength and the old man’s, it would be nearly impossible to defeat him, but he was out of retreats.

With a clench of his teeth, he struggled to rise, charging at the old man again.

The old man seemed a bit confused by Xu Mu’s resistance, but he showed no mercy, his every movement and form of attack being exceedingly savage.

Very soon Xu Mu was losing ground again, once more blown away by the strong force.

His body rolled in the air, landing heavily on the ground.

At this moment he felt as if his body was being torn apart by a powerful force, his internal cultivation also becoming chaotic.

He knew his injuries were serious, if not treated promptly, it could be life threatening.

He tried to rise, but his body remained motionless.

He knew his bones might be broken, the injuries were too severe.

Then the old man slowly approached Xu Mu, a malicious smile crossed his face, he said: “Boy, what moves do you have left? If you beg me now, I can perhaps give you a quick end.”

Xu Mu clenched his teeth, his eyes defiant, he will never beg this old man, because that would mean abandoning his dignity and family.

He knew that his body couldn’t move anymore, but his eyes were filled with determination and resolution.

He believed his family could come out of the God Refining Tripod, and they would find him and take him back.

Thinking of this, a warm current surged in his heart, that was the warmth of family.

But after seeing the look in Xu Mu’s eyes, the old man couldn’t help but hold a little respect for him.

Even though he was a highly-cultivated individual in the Divinity Transformation Stage, he experienced countless life and death situations over his lifetime, he knew the true definition of a warrior.

He did not kill Xu Mu, but instead turned and walked away.

After watching the old man depart, Xu Mu heaved a sigh of relief.

He knew he needed to treat his body as soon as possible, otherwise it could affect his cultivation.

He quickly mobilized his internal cultivation and began to heal his body.

Just then, a voice asked from beside him: “Boy, are you alright?”

Xu Mu was taken aback, he turned his head to see a middle-aged man in a green robe standing in front of him.
