Chapter 159: Chapter 140: Foundation Establishment Ninth Level_1

Translator: 549690339

According to the memories of the Iron Corpse Superior, the small secret realm was located more than 300 meters underwater and was accidentally discovered during a patrol.

It took a lot of effort later to break through the protective array.

Unfortunately, apart from the corpse of Lu Jingkong, there was nothing inside.

Originally, it was thought that Lu Jingkong had taken all the treasures, but alas, after searching for a long time, nothing of value was found on Lu Jingkong’s body.

The corpse was then taken away by the Iron Corpse Superior, leaving only a Foundation Establishment Elder to guard the space.

According to the Iron Corpse Superior’s senses, the density of spiritual energy in the small secret realm had reached that of a medium-sized spirit vein. It was definitely a treasure land for cultivation.

However, out of fear of problems in the secret realm, the Iron Corpse Superior did not cultivate there, preferring to wait a few years, observing the situation before making a decision.

A small secret realm comparable to a medium-sized spirit vein is far superior to Black Tide Island, and can certainly greatly accelerate the speed of Xu Mu’s cultivation advancement.

No more worries about the spiritual energy issue of the tool corpse!

Xu Mu carefully pondered the feasibility of the matter and felt there was no major problem. He immediately set off with the coffin carrying the tool corpse on his back

Based on his memory, it did not take much effort to find the sea area where the secret realm was located.

After confirming the location, Xu Mu took a deep breath, squeezed his fingers to form a spell, and his body began to change. His arms gradually turned into the fins of a shark, and a row of sharp shark fins grew on his back.

However, his face still retained its human features, only his eyes became sharper, revealing a fierce aura.

He dived into the sea and plunged into a seafloor trench 100 meters deep. It was dark in front of him, but Xu Mu had a clear view of everything around him. There were large coral reefs and various marine creatures around him. Among them, a large number of red starfish with long tentacles were out looking for food.

Compared to the non-aggressive starfish of his previous life, these red starfish possessed considerable attack power. In this sea-bottom environment, it would be quite strenuous to deal with them even in the late stage of Qi Cultivation.

Moreover, they could spit out a paralyzing toxin that seeped into spiritual power. If one was not careful, even cultivators at the Foundation Establishment Stage could succumb to it.

When it was first discovered, it had given the Iron Corpse Gang quite a run for their money.

At this moment, sensing Xu Mu’s presence, these human-sized red starfish immediately rushed up, but not to attack. Instead, they demonstrated allegiance to Xu Mu, exposing their vulnerabilities and showing an inclination of familiarity.

Xu Mu’s current cultivation level had reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and his Twelve Startle Cicada Skill had reached perfection. After transforming into the Silver Shark form, his power multiplied. Ordinary Sea Race members could only submit to him upon seeing him.

Of course, not all Sea Race members have this ability. Only the King Clan among the Sea Race can make ordinary sea creatures submit, which is one of the main reasons they are referred to as the King Clan.

Ignoring these starfish displaying their goodwill, Xu Mu passed through the coral group and according to Iron Corpse Superior’s memory, found a seafloor trench that was no more than ten meters long and two meters wide.

This was the entrance to the small secret realm, and its discovery was purely accidental.

There were no guards at the entrance, and Xu Mu scanned it with divine intent. It was only set up with an illusion array to avoid detection.

He began to squeeze his fingers to form a spell, and gradually, an Illusion Array and a Defensive Array appeared in front of him. Within the Illusion Array, the seawater began to look clear and bright, as if one was in a crystal palace, while the Defensive Array was a solid energy shield, capable of holding off external attacks.

Xu Mu entered the small space created by the Illusion Array, which was a spacious and quiet undersea cave. The cave housed all kinds of bizarre creatures, but none of them posed any threat to Xu Mu.

After passing through the Illusion Array, Xu Mu’s fingers moved slightly, and a faint spiritual power flowed slowly from his fingertips, forming a tiny rune.

His fingers continued to dance, and the rune gradually expanded and became more clear. Xu Mu’s eyes narrowed, his hand movements became more proficient, and the rune became more complex.

Finally, the rune collided with the Defensive Array, causing the array’s light curtain to fluctuate intensely. Xu Mu’s fingers stopped moving. He took a deep breath and softly said, “Defensive Array, activate!”

As his words fell, the rune began to shine. A powerful energy spread out from the rune as the center, forming a stable channel.

This channel of the Defensive Array could only be maintained for a short time. Without hesitation, Xu Mu quickly stepped through it.

As he crossed the Defensive Array, the scene in front of him suddenly changed. Looking around, Xu Mu’s pupils couldn’t help but slightly contract.

The space in front of him had a radius of less than ten miles, being a hundred feet high, entirely supported by large skeletons.

The skeletons emitted a white glow, illuminating the entire space.

Standing at the entrance, Xu Mu couldn’t help but feel extremely tiny.

“What giant beast’s bones are these?”

Xu Mu had never seen such massive skeletons before.

“Could it be the legendary True Spirit Giant Beast?”

Xu Mu was shocked.

The True Spirit Giant Beast was considered comparable to the Mahayana existence among humans, almost standing at the pinnacle of the mortal realm. Unless immortals intervened, no one could subdue it.

“No, if it were indeed a True Spirit Giant Beast, the Iron Corpse Superior would not have ignored it!”

Xu Mu walked closer to inspect, and with a slight exertion of his hand, he was able to crush the bone into powder.

It didn’t seem like the remains of a True Spirit being, let alone the possibility of it having existed for too long.

With some regret, Xu Mu released his divine intent to sense everything around him.

Thick spiritual energy filled the space. Many bizarre creatures were either flying in the air, lurking in the water, or crawling on the skeletons, bringing a vibrant life-force to this small space.

The only similarity was that all of their strengths were quite weak.

Although the area here was small, the dense spiritual energy should have given birth to strong monster beasts.

“Probably all were killed by Lu Jingkong!”

Xu Mu did not dwell on this matter much.

As he scanned freely and uninhibited with his divine intent, the Iron Corpse Gang Elder guarding this space also detected his presence.

“Who are you?”

A beam of black light flew over from a distance, landing in front of Xu Mu, revealing an old man in a black robe.

The old man was skinny, his skin was pale as if devoid of blood. His eyes were deeply set in their sockets, and the cold aura in his black pupils sent shivers down your spine.

He was wearing a long black robe, filled with all kinds of strange symbols and spells, which looked very mysterious. He held a black bone staff in his hand with a blood-red gem on its head, emitting a strange glow.

“You, you are…”

Upon seeing Xu Mu clearly, the oldest, who was originally quite calm, immediately lost his composure.

Because he was all too familiar with this image.

It was the Silver Shark Clan member who attacked the Iron Corpse Gang a year ago.

Although he had never seen Xu Mu face to face, he had seen plenty of his portraits and images, so he recognized him instantly.

Two green-faced fangs, wearing armor, and blood-red eyes were immediately put by him.

“It seems like you know me, then it’ll be easier.”

Xu Mu’s mouth lifted in a slight corner, the silver phantom thunder rolling in his hand, making a sharp buzzing sound. His eyes were sharp, his body agile, and he approached the old man step by step.

The old man’s face turned pale and he quickly took out a porcelain bottle containing black liquid. His eyes revealed a chilling aura that sent shivers down your spine.

Xu Mu’s eyes flashed, he suddenly launched an attack, the silver phantom thunder instantly turned into a silver snake, pouncing furiously towards the old man. The old man hurriedly raised his hand, a black current sprayed from his hand, swallowing the silver phantom thunder whole.

At the same time, two refined corpses split to the left and right, and quickly rushed towards Xu Mu.

“Interesting!”

Xu Mu’s expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn’t seen the fierce refined corpses at all.

The old man’s eyes flickered, and suddenly threw out the porcelain bottle in his hand, the black liquid inside turned into an evil dragon, smelly to the nose, directly covering Xu Mu.

“Hmm?”

Just as the old man was puzzled, Xu Mu was hit so easily. Suddenly, a silver lightning bolt appeared out of thin air and directly hit the old man’s chest.

The old man cried out in surprise, and his body retreated several steps, but quickly stood up again.

“There’s more?”

The figure of Xu Mu appeared and a hint of surprise appeared on his face.

He had not expected the old man to have two magical artifacts on him that could withstand phantom thunder’s attack. It seems that these people had gone to great lengths to deal with him.

If it was just that, then take a break.

Without waiting for the old man to react, Xu Mu launched another attack, his body moving as fast as lightning, dodging the attack of the refined corpses while releasing silver thunderbolts.

A stream of silver phantom thunder was shot out from his hand continuously.

The old man could only hold on for a little while before being hit in the head, becoming immobile.

With the old man falling into an illusion, the two refined corpses lost control and stopped.

Xu Mu had no intention of killing the old man. After stripping him of all his possessions, he pulled him out of the illusion.

“Go tell your Iron Corpse Gang, from now on this place belongs to me. If they dare to bother me again, I’ll wipe out your Iron Corpse Gang!”

With that, Xu Mu revealed the cultivation of the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

As long as the other party was not stupid, they would not fight over territory with a Sea Clan member in the seabed who is in the Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

Not to mention that the Iron Corpse Gang was only in Foundation Establishment Stage, even if they reached Golden Core Stage, they would still need to think twice. It’s precisely because of this that Xu Mu dared to claim this place so brazenly.

The elder fled without a second to waste, stripped bare. It’s safe to say the incident will leave a permanent scar in his memory.

Xu Mu carefully inspected the place again, modified the defensive and illusion arrays, and separately arranged several layers of formations to close the entrance. Only after making sure there were no dangers, did he bring out his tool corpse.

“With such a rich nature’s spiritual energy, it should have a good effect!”

At this moment, a hint of fanaticism inevitably slipped into Xu Mu’s eyes. He took a deep breath, and then submerged his body in it, closing his eyes and practicing the secret skill of Yin and Yang Harmony.

As the secret skill was running, the tool corpse was activated immediately, and the surrounding spiritual energy began to pour into her body crazily. The vast spiritual energy made the tool corpse tremble, seeming somewhat unaccustomed.

But she didn’t stop, as time passed, she absorbed the spiritual energy more and more crazily.

Before long, she had fully acclimated to the concentration of spiritual energy here.

Then, driven by the secret skill, she infused Xu Mu with it all without reservation.

His cultivation started to rise continuously, his spiritual power grew stronger and stronger, and his perception sharpener.

The surrounding scenery also began to change. A scene of Yin and Yang alternately appeared in the sky, and unusual flowers and plants appeared on the ground. Xu Mu’s cultivation had already affected the entire space.

Time passed by the minute and second, after an unknown period of time, a buzzing sound suddenly came from Xu Mu’s body, his aura surged dramatically. He stopped the operation of the secret skill, slowly opened his eyes.

“Reached the ninth level of Foundation Establishment! I didn’t expect it to be this easy!”

A stage that ordinary people might take ten to twenty years to practice, he broke through in just a few months, the joy in his heart was imaginable.

Next step is to advance to the Golden Core Stage!

This is much faster than he expected.

Just as Xu Mu was contemplating whether to continue practicing for a while to consolidate his cultivation, or to leave, an extremely angry voice echoed in Xu Mu’s mind.

“Ant-like creatures! You dare to defile my body!”
