Chapter 246: Chapter 215 Injury_i
Jade Spirit Fruit!
Although this spirit fruit is high-ranking at tier five, the spiritual power it contains is extremely gentle. As long as the intake is controlled, even those at the Qi Cultivation Stage can withstand it.
At the same time, its effects are very comprehensive. It can be used to improve cultivation base, enhance physique, and even repair physical injuries, making it the most suitable for his current condition.
“It’s truly a cycle of cause and effect!”
Xu Mu sighed inwardly.
If he hadn’t entered the small space, he wouldn’t have been injured, and naturally, he wouldn’t have picked this special spirit fruit.
After confirming the effects of the spirit fruit, he immediately began closed-
door cultivation to recover.
With the help of the spirit fruit, Xu Mu’s cultivation base quickly recovered.
Qi Cultivation Third Layer!
Qi Cultivation Fourth Layer!
Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer!
Qi Cultivation Ninth Layer!
Foundation Establishment First Layer!
Foundation Establishment Second Layer!
One month passed quickly, and the flying boat reached the region of Tianhe
City, temporarily stopping at a place called Changhe Market.
They were waiting here for Chi Feiyan and Xu Xia. After they gathered, they would leave together.
Xu Mu’s physical body did not leave the spiritual boat, and was still cultivating in seclusion on it. Without his orders, no one else dared to disturb him.
“Still not working! Cough, cough!”
A stream of fresh blood spilled from the corner of Xu Mu’s mouth, and at the same time, faint sparks of electricity flickered on his body.
Xu Mu’s condition was due to forcibly practicing the Purple Lightning Body
Refinement Skill.
As for the reason—
In his Dantian, there was a vortex of spiritual power like a nebulous cloud. This was Xu Mu’s principal spiritual power. It should have been as pure as a red glow but was now entwined with strands of black Qi.
This black spiritual power was none other than the Demonic Qi Xu Mu had been contaminated with in the small space.
in the past few days, he had tried everything, but he couldn’t expel it.
His cultivation base had long been restored to the Perfection of Foundation Establishment, but because he was unable to get rid of the Demonic Qi, he couldn’t advance to the Golden Core Stage nor cultivate the Purple Lightning Body Refinement Skill.
Whenever he tried to cultivate, the Demonic Qi in his body would erupt, causing
internal injuries.
Xu Mu was frustrated but felt helpless.
He opened the system and checked his lifespan.
[Lifespan: 118/150].
Seeing that his lifespan had only increased by thirty years, Xu Mu couldn’t help
but sigh.
This time, his foundation had been damaged. No matter whether he could just recover to the late Foundation Establishment stage or even to the Golden Core Stage, complete recovery was impossible.
Xu Mu felt that it would be a good outcome if he could increase his lifespan to two hundred years.
But even this wish of living to two hundred years old was unachievable now.
That made him hate that woman, whose name he didn’t even know, even more.
“The most important thing for me to do now is to eliminate the Demonic Qi in my body, otherwise I won’t be able to do anything!
This was what Xu Mu needed to do next, and it was also the most urgent
matter.
Hum!
Xu Mu formed a finger gesture, gathered a large amount of water spiritual power, and formed a mirror in front of him. It reflected his current appearance.
His hair was full of white, his face covered with wrinkles, his whole body was filled with the aura of decay and deterioration.
Anyone could see that he wouldn’t live much longer.
The current situation was even worse than when he had just obtained the
system.
“As of now, the spatial passage is bound to be filled with Demonic Qi. If I rush back, I might run into the Old Ancestor of Tongyou. It’s impossible to return to the Cang Ming Ocean Territory to find a solution!
When the Demonic Qi erupts, Tianhe Sect might trace it back to me! So I can’t stay in Tianhe Sect and the two other nearby Nascent Soul Sects!” After thinking it over, the only solution to his physical condition could be the distant Central Region. There, sects were numerous, experts were as common as clouds, and solutions would be easier to find.
As for why he didn’t wait for the Demonic Qi to erupt before fleeing, so that Tianhe Sect wouldn’t suspect him, it was naturally because Xu Mu didn’t dare to gamble. He wasn’t willing to risk his and his family’s lives.
Moreover, by that time, considering the Xu family’s position in Tianhe Sect, they might be forced to go to the frontline, and by that time, it would be too late to run.
