Chapter 168 (1/2)
Obsidian Moonstone
Leaving from the main hall, this servant sneaked out carefully.
Taking a few turns, he went through several long corridors before he came to the last exquisite pavilion.
Right in front of the pavilion, the servant kneeled down and shouted: “I’m Zhang Chang Shun, reporting to second master!”
Gu zhi.
The wooden door opened and a middle aged man in a brown clothes walked out.
He looked serious, and had deep set eyes. Walking out of the pavilion, he yelled at Zhang Chang Shun: “Is everything done?”
Zhang Chang Shun raised his head and replied: “Yes, second master. Mu Tian Hao had taken majority of the experts to aid Su Yun. Now, the Mu Mansion should be very weak. It’s a good time to attack now!”
“Good!”
A flicker of light shone through Second Master’s eyes. He shouted: “I’ve waited for this chance for a long long time. Finally, the time is ripe… Now, call everyone to gather in front of the forbidden grounds of Mu Family! Quick!”
“Yes, Second Master!”
Zhang Chang Shun replied swiftly before he left.
Second Master Mu’s face sank and stepped towards the forbidden grounds of the Mu Family. Very quickly, a group of guards donning exquisite armour, were armed with weapons, followed him behind.
A total of a hundred people marched ferociously towards the forbidden grounds of the Mu Family.
The forbidden grounds of the Mu Family is where they stored all of the failed soul stones. It was also the place where all the ancestors were buried. Other than Mu Tian Hao, no one could enter this place.
The forbidden grounds were guarded by Mu Tian Hao’s hand picked guards. There were six of them who were all loyal to the Mu Family.
But with just this six people, they would most definitely not be able to block Second Master Mu.
The forbidden grounds were situated behind the Mu Family estate. It was empty there. If anyone got close, the guards could easily sense it.
Second Master Mu led the army of guards to that place. Without a word, he killed his way through.
The guards could not block off enemies with their bare hands. Soon enough, they died in the hands of Second Master Mu.
“Get in! Get the God Soul Stone for me!”
Second Master Mu roared. Taking the lead, he barged into the forbidden grounds.
Roaming around were the failed Soul Stones. They scurried away when they were frightened by this group of intruders. This was like the hell of Asura where all the fierce beast’s souls wandered. They were the failures, whom could not attack or their spiritual powers were weak and were not suited for battle. The Mu Family kept them here. After all, when a soul stone was left to run freely, they would mess up the balance of life and bring troubles to the Mu Family. Keeping them here was the best method. If the Soul Stone could not tolerate the loneliness, they could suicide.
The forbidden grounds also kept abandoned Soul Stones, and amongst those kept there, they also kept the fiercest ones. The ones that could not be controlled.
Amongst them was the God Soul Stone.
The Mu Family was the ancient maker of the Soul Stone. The Soul Stone technique had been passed down for generations, and in the long history of the Soul Stone, there was a heartless, vicious patriarch.
He took his father’s soul and cultivated it with the Soul Stone technique to make a special Soul Stone known as the God Soul Stone. The God amongst the Soul Stones.
Using human souls to make Soul Stones was forbidden for a Soul Stone master. It was also forbidden in the Sky Martial Continent. Once that was done, what was the difference between human beings and demons? And so, this vicious patriarch was condemned and suppressed by the public. But, this God Soul Stone he cultivated had become the strongest one in the history of Mu Family, which was admired by several Soul Stone Masters.
“Mu Tian Hao’s cultivation is so much higher than mine. To take over his place and become the Mu Family Patriarch, I can only rely on the God Soul Stone. With it, I can take sovereignty over the world and be formidable. The status of the Mu Family will also be on the rise!”
Second Master Mu led the group of people into the forbidden grounds quickly. This was just like a man-made cave. The walls were carved with patterns that emitted blue light and in the center, was a golden fountain on a golden stage. On top of the stage was a piece of pantone colored stone the size of a fist. On top of the stone, there was a seal of a human being.
And around this stone, the abandoned Soul Stones dared not go near.
“God Soul Stone!!”
When Second Master Mu saw it, he was agitated. His eyes were burning with passion.
He walked over quickly towards it.
Swish!
The moment Second Master Mu picked up the piece of pantone coloured stone, he tried to inculcate Profound Spirit Qi into it with the means of forming a rapport with it to own it.
But.
Just as the Profound Spirit Qi inculcated into the pantone stone, it suddenly cracked and a string of mist emerged from it…
Second Master Mu face instantly changed: “It’s fake?”
The ones that were following Second Master Mu were all taken aback.
“That’s right, it’s a fake!”
Just at this moment, a crisp sound emerged.
Second Master Mu turned quickly to a group of people blocking the entrance of the forbidden grounds.
These people were the administrator clan elder of the Mu family, the experts and just right at the front of the group of people was the supposedly unconscious Mu Feng!!
“This is not possible!!”
Second Master Mu muttered, stared in shock at Mu Feng and asked: “You… Didn’t you… Uh… fail in your Soul Stone technique and was engulfed by it? How… How are you alive?”
“Engulfed by a Soul Stone?” Mu Feng shook his head and let out a bitter laugh: “Uncle, why are you deceiving yourself? You left the Soul Stone in my body, don’t tell me you still don’t know?”
Second Master Mu’s face changed instantly.
