Chapter 520: Chapter 476: Potential Danger_2

The reason he brought it up now was also due to an increased number of people inquiring about it recently.

“Oh!”

Xu Mu rubbed his jaw thoughtfully, his gaze flickering, unsure of what to think.

After a moment, he finally said, “I plan to make a trip back to the Inner Sea to take a look.”

“You can make such decisions yourself, there’s no need to discuss with me.” Lu Jingkong retorted.

“I’ll leave immediately.” Xu Mu continued, “I will likely fly slowly while concealing my aura on the way, so I probably won’t arrive until tomorrow morning.”

“…”

Lu Jingkong couldn’t help but feel puzzled, unsure of what Xu Mu meant. Why bother telling her all these details?

However, after Xu Mu finished speaking, he didn’t wait for her to respond. Instead, he turned into a streak of light and flew towards the Inner Sea, disappearing across the horizon swiftly.

Lu Jingkong did not attempt to chase after him or inquire further. She watched his retreating figure; after a short while, her facial expression returned to calm, and she turned back into the formation.

She didn’t inform others of Xu Mu’s return. She entered her place of retreat and continued her cultivation.

On the other hand, after Xu Mu concealed his presence and cultivation, he began heading towards the Inner Sea at a leisurely pace.

He planned to exchange some words with Mo Wuxin when he returned, then tried to figure out a way to cross the Misty Sea back to the mainland.

It had been over a hundred years since he had left the mainland. He was unsure how things were there, especially with regards to the Demon Gate. He was always a bit worried.

If he didn’t return to take a look, he wouldn’t be able to put his mind at ease and concentrate on cultivation.

Moreover, he had another purpose.

That was, once he found a way back, he would endeavour to collect as many medicinal herbs as possible for cultivation.

Currently, advancing his cultivation level was extremely difficult.

Those Dan medicines that could aid his breakthrough were terrifyingly high-quality, and the medicinal herbs that could be used for their preparation were all exceedingly precious.

After all, the vast sea did not compare to the mainland where gathering various spiritual medicines was much easier.

Of course, he would also have people collecting them here.

As long as he could collect enough medicinal herbs, his alchemy skills could be quickly enhanced to the top level using his system, and then, by making top-grade Dan Medicine, he might be able to elevate his cultivation level to the Divinity Transformation Stage in a short period.

The Old Ancestor of Tongyou’s cultivation level — he had no idea whether it had reached the Divinity Transformation Stage after all these years.

However, even if he hadn’t reached the Divinity Transformation Stage, his powerful puppet body was not to be underestimated and could stand up to normal Divinity Transformation cultivators.

Although Xu Mu’s strength had soared dramatically, and he was a lot stronger than when he first arrived here, he still didn’t have the confidence to deal with the Old Ancestor of Tongyou by himself.

Xu Mu felt that to completely resolve the issue, he would have to enhance his cultivation level to Divinity Transformation Stage and integrate the Sky-splitting Halberd, only then would he be confident.

Especially considering the Old Ancestor of Tongyou had a puppet body, without the Sky-splitting Halberd, no one would be powerful enough to kill him.

If it weren’t for the Old Ancestor of Tongyou, Xu Mu wouldn’t be so eager to increase his cultivation level. After all, he was only three hundred years old.

Reaching the Nascent Soul Stage at the age of three hundred is abnormal even by genius standards.

Moreover, after reaching the Divinity Transformation Stage, he would need to consider advancing to higher levels.

According to his collected information, the highest possible cultivation level in this world was only at the beginning of the Divinity Transformation stage because the energy levels this world could provide could not sustain him at a higher level.

Just like when he entered the Kun Peng Small World, where he could only reach the Nascent Soul Stage. Any attempt to progress further was immensely difficult.

While Xu Mu was flying idly and contemplating his future plans, an abnormal fluctuation in his surroundings caught his attention.

“It seems I was right; they have indeed arrived.”

As soon as this thought crossed his mind, the once bright and sunny sky suddenly filled with radiant stars.

Stars abruptly appeared in the sky, emitting dazzling radiance that culminated into multiple Star Swords.

These Star Swords, emanating severe sharpness, came with an overwhelming pressure, as if the stars themselves were falling from the sky.

As the force from all the stars rained down, the entire sea seemed to be collapsing, resembling an imminent apocalypse.

This current scene reminded him of the attack employed by the Divinity Transformation cultivator he once encountered.

However, compared to the earlier grandeur of constellation, the power of the current Star Swords seemed inferior.

Although it was less powerful than the previous constellations’ brilliance, it was beyond what any ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators could achieve.

“Divinity Transformation stage?”
