Chapter 655: Chapter 379: Qiankun Bottle_3
Having finally acquired a spatial spirit weapon, Chen Mu’s mood was also very pleasant at that mont. After all, many tis in the past he had faced the inconvenient situation of carrying heavy objects, especially when exploring the Earthly Abyss, where the corpses of the Eighth Rank Demon Kings he had killed could mostly not be taken away. He could only take the most precious parts from their bodies, while the rest had to be reluctantly left behind.
If he had had such a ‘Qiankun Pot’ earlier, he would not have had to lose those valuable items.
The spatial spirit weapon that he had been longing for had finally been refined successfully. Chen Mu finally shook off many restrictions and returned to his residence, putting all sorts of accumulated items into the Qiankun Pot, feeling much more unencumbered in an instant.
The only pity was that the Cave Heaven inside this Qiankun Pot was only about twenty zhang in radius, which was much smaller compared to the ‘Qiankun Pot’ ranked in the top ten of the Da Xuan Spirit Weapon Catalogue rumored to be much larger.
In the past, Chen Mu’s understanding of the Qiankun Pot was limited to so baseless rumors, but today, from Yin Heng’s mouth, he had learned many previously unknown true histories, such as the fact that the internal space of the Qiankun Pot was vast, far surpassing other existing spatial spirit weapons. It was almost a miniature Cave Heaven, even capable of transporting tens of thousands of elite army soldiers!
This was indeed terrifying.
Like the Qiankun Pot in his hand, if it were to be used by the Jade Forest Army, at best, it would facilitate the transportation and placent of grain and fodder, but the Qiankun Pot could carry hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, carried by a master in the Blood Exchange Realm, dropping in like a divine soldiery from heaven!
Originally, the four armies of the Da Xuan Dynasty Court, such as the Azure Dragon and White Tiger, were already the most elite soldiers in the world, with all soldiers having undergone Tendon Changing and Bone Tempering, countless officers in the Viscera Realm and uncountable Grandmasters commanding them. Once the military formations were established, even those in the Blood Exchange Realm would find it difficult to escape, not to ntion reaching an elusive degree by depending on the Qiankun Pot. It was simply too terrifying.
With such a terrifying, almost divine weapon, it was no wonder that the forr Da Xuan Dynasty Court could command the world, deter all sides, and be obeyed by all beneath the heavens. It’s just that this divine weapon ultimately got lost in history, and its whereabouts are still unknown to this day.
Chen Mu shook his head slightly.
Chen Mu collected his thoughts.
No matter where the Qiankun Pot had ended up, it didn’t matter much to him anymore. He already had a Qiankun Pot, which was convenient enough for his use, and he didn’t need a divine weapon like the Qiankun Pot to deter the world.
What he pursued was always the ultimate in personal martial strength. Once he ascended to the Blood Exchange Realm in the future, or even mastered the third step of Artistic Conception, reaching the realm of the Celestial Human, what would it matter if he faced a million-strong army, even if they ford a tight military formation around him?
One man,
could break through a million soldiers!
After calming his emotions, Chen Mu thought for a mont and then summoned the system panel.
[Martial Body: Qiankun (Minor Achievent)]
[Experience: 782 points]
His Qiankun Martial Body needed six thousand experience points to break through from Minor Achievent to Major Achievent. In fact, after exploring the Earthly Abyss and gaining many rewards, he had almost gathered enough experience required for the breakthrough.
However, the forceful upgrading through the system panel did not take into account the adaptability of the body. Previously, when he stepped into the Minor Achievent of the Qiankun Body, he needed so ti to adapt. After the expedition to the Earthly Abyss and the process of studying and refining the Qiankun Pot, his foundation was basically solid, and now he could attempt to advance further.
After feeling his current state of martial physique for a mont, Chen Mu flipped his hand and took out the Qiankun Pot, guiding it with a strand of Yuan Gang True Essence, and took out the fifteen portions of top-tier Mystic Tortoise Pellets that he had stored in it earlier.
At that ti, after refining all the Mystic Tortoise Heart Blood into Mystic Tortoise Pellets, since his Qiankun Martial Body had only recently reached Minor Achievent and needed so ti to adapt, he did not continue to ingest these spiritual dicines for tempering. Instead, he stored them, and now he took them all out, which was just right to use.
Chen Mu had already used Mystic Tortoise Pellets a long ti ago.
At this mont, he didn’t hesitate much and soon swallowed them one by one, gradually digesting the dicinal power of the Mystic Tortoise Pellets in his body, while the accumulated experience points on the system panel screen rapidly increased.
Basically, as Chen Mu had previously judged, after consuming and refining all fifteen portions of the top-tier Mystic Tortoise Pellets, he accumulated nearly three thousand points of experience.
[Martial Body: Qiankun (Minor Achievent)]
[Experience: 3821 points]
He was still almost 2200 points short of stepping into Major Achievent.
This part was not a concern for the current Chen Mu, as he had gained a lot in the Earthly Abyss. The first thing he took out was a vibrant green and fresh fruit—Evergreen Fruit!
This Evergreen Fruit was taken from Jiang Changsheng’s body.
After Jiang Changsheng’s sword broke and his resolve shattered, he was essentially a cripple, and Chen Mu lost much interest in him, taking away everything he had harvested in the Earthly Abyss, including this Evergreen Fruit.
Thinking of Jiang Changsheng, a strange emotion rose in Chen Mu’s heart. Gu Hong had previously been defeated by him, his Heart Sword broken and rendered a cripple, only to rise from his defeats, but then he was shattered again by him, and since then, there had been no news of him. Jiang Changsheng, too, had painstakingly practiced the Longevity Sword all his life, only to have it broken by him, from pupil to master all defeated by him.
It was unknown if Jiang Changsheng could, like Gu Hong, reunite his Sword Heart. However, he was ultimately a Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster who had suffered such a heavy blow that just his Martial Body alone would not recover in less than three to five years. Even if he could rise from his defeat, it would be many years later.
By that ti,
who knows what the world would be like.
Chen Mu quickly shook his head, not wanting to think too much, and swallowed the Evergreen Fruit in one gulp.
…
Qing State.
Heavenly Sword Sect.
Nestled among the mountains, each peak steep, like upright sword blades piercing into the clouds.
Jiang Changsheng, clad in a green robe, with bloodstains all over it, his face dry and brittle, his eyes resembling the still waters of a dead pond, leaned on a withered wooden staff and staggered toward the sect gate, taking steps one by one until he reached the front of the gate.
“Uncle Master…”
Following Jiang Changsheng, a figure in white clothes trailed behind him. The young-faced man watched as Jiang Changsheng staggered into the gate of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and while he sighed in relief, his eyes were filled with complex emotions.
Early on, stewards and protectors of the Heavenly Sword Sect appeared, but seeing Jiang Changsheng stagger forward with his staff, none dared to step forward to help. So even cast their gazes towards the white-clothed figure escorting him along and greeted the man in white.
“Brother Zuo.”
“Protector Zuo.”
The man in white who had been escorting Jiang Changsheng was none other than Zuo Qianqiu, the forr champion of the true disciples and the current Heavenly Sword Protector of the sect.
Half a month ago, in Ice State, he had maneuvered the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Diagram and had defeated a Seventh Rank Demon Venerable of the Sky Demon Sect, causing quite a stir. In terms of strength, by the next re-evaluation of the Wind Cloud List, he was likely to make it onto the list.
However, at this mont, seeing the staggering figure of Jiang Changsheng, Zuo Qianqiu felt sowhat distracted.
Originally,
after defeating a Seventh Rank Demon Venerable of the Sky Demon Sect, he believed he was gradually closing the gap with Chen Mu, and he was confident that within five years, he could break through the Mysterious Pass and enter the realm of a Marrow Cleansing Grandmaster.
But then on his way back to the sect, he suddenly heard about Jiang Changsheng’s sword breaking in the Earthly Abyss. He was shocked at first, but then he learned that the person who had broken Jiang Changsheng’s sword was none other than Chen Mu, who he saw as the enemy of his lifeti.
During the journey to escort Jiang Changsheng back to the sect, he also heard that in the Grandmaster List of the Da Xuan Dynasty Court, Chen Mu had quietly made the list and had instantly beco the top grandmaster in the world!
Even now, he still felt a bit bewildered.
It had only been a few years since their battle on the Yunni Sky Steps, where he had fought with all his might. Although defeated by Chen Mu, he at least had the qualification to make Chen Mu fight seriously.
But now,
even Jiang Changsheng, in front of Chen Mu, was not even an equal opponent. Despite his great progress over these few years, having entered the Six Viscera Realm and refined the Six Viscera to perfection, and even possessing the strength to join the Wind Cloud List, he was recognized as the unparalleled prodigy of the Heavenly Sword Sect for a century and its sole successor. Yet when compared to Chen Mu, all his arduous cultivation now seed like a joke.
Where exactly did he fall short?
