《Dao: Journey to the Top of the Universe》C129. The Mu Family in Yingzhou
Advertisement
"I have already destroyed his Dantian and erased his memories over the past ten years. Let him live a normal and peaceful life for the rest of his days." Alchemy Taoist sighed softly, picked Duan Huaming up and went away with a flashing light.
Qingyun Taoist looked at Shiao Chen with satisfaction in his eyes. He stretched out his hand and patted Shiao Chen's shoulder, and disappeared in a flash.
Shiao Chen lowered his head and pondered for a while, then shook his head with a bitter smile. It seemed sometimes he was not cruel enough. But Duan Huaming could no longer pose any threat to him from now on. Slowly walking in front of Tianji Taoist, he took off the storage bag and other things, and then a weird look flashed across his eyes. Under the respectful eyes of the many disciples, he sighed, "Even if we are irreconcilable, I will bury you as a cultivator of Gold Core, may you rest in peace."
The Luoyun Valley disciples were all awestruck by hearing this. When Shiao Chen waved his hand and took away Tianji Taoist's corpse, they sighed softly, "Elder Shiao is really an affectionate and faithful person..."
Shiao Chen looked excited and said in a low voice while in the light, "I got the body of the cultivator of Gold Core. Another ingredient for refining the Demon Corpse Puppet."
.......
Three months later.
In the Spiritual Herb Pavilion of Luoyun Valley. After three months, the aftermath of Flaming Sect's destruction, which caused a stir in the whole cultivation world of Beihua State, finally faded. During this period, countless sects came to congratulate on the success of Luoyun Valley and to show their submissions and respect. In this short period of time, Luoyun Valley's strength soared rapidly, and recruited some rogue cultivators of Foundation Establishment, it became the undisputed top sect of the cultivation world of Beihua State. With the sects including Earth Spirit Sect and Black Evil Sect announcing to close their Sect Gate, Luoyun Valley's fame peaked for the moment!

As the most powerful and gifted young man with unimaginable potential in Luoyun Valley, Shiao Chen was naturally admired by other cultivators. After chiefs of various forces had visited Qingyun Taoist and Alchemy Taoist before, they would visit Shiao Chen's residence to curry favor with him. After receiving several people, Shiao Chen was really disturbed and felt annoyed. It was not until he announced his closed door cultivation that others stopped visiting him.
"I pay my respects to Master Shiao Chen!"
"Greetings, Master Shiao Chen."
All the disciples of Luoyun Valley who met Shiao Chen all stopped and saluted respectfully. Shiao Chen smiled and nodded at them all, then slowly walked towards the hills behind Luoyun Valley.
The two disciples in charge of guarding the back mountain saw Shiao Chen coming from afar. They hurriedly forward and said respectfully, "Greetings, Elder Shiao."
Shiao Chen smiled and nodded, "You won't stop me this time, will you?"
The young man in yellow robes looked a little nervous by hearing this. He smiled shyly and lowered his head somewhat embarrassed.
Shiao Chen shook his head with a smile and walked towards the cave.
"Disciple Shiao Chen is paying respects to the chief master and grand master." Shiao Chen entered the stone cave with a jade pendant in hand and looked at the two smiling old fellows on the praying mat. He couldn't help but feel excited.
Qingyun Taoist and Alchemy Taoist were both powerful and wise. It could be seen from the change of Shiao Chen's expression. At this moment, the former coughed softly and said slowly, "Maybe there is a way to resolve the barrier of the Foundation Establishment."
Shiao Chen was still excited for the acknowledgement even he had already guessed. He took a few deep breaths before he calmed himself down and said respectfully, "Master, please enlighten me."
Qingyun Taoist smiled and nodded, musing for a while and said, "I wonder if you know the Mu Family in Yingzhou?"
Shiao Chen was pondering for a while, and a tinge of surprise appeared in his eyes. He cried out involuntarily, "Is it the only family in Yingzhou which has a Nascent Soul cultivator in the eight states of Zhao Kingdom?"

"Yes." Qingyun Taoist raised his eyes slightly, showing some respect and said slowly, "As the top cultivation family in Zhao Kingdom, the Mu Family has unfathomable power. Not only Master Mu Xiansheng was a cultivator of Nascent Soul, the master of Mu Family and at least fifteen elders of Mu Family are all cultivators of Gold Core!"
"It's amazing to see so many high level cultivators in one family!"
"The Mu Clan in Yingzhou is the strongest force in the cultivation world of Zhao Kingdom. If it wasn't for the fact that this clan doesn't like fighting, the whole cultivation world of Zhao Kingdom would have been unified hundreds of years ago."
Dozens of cultivators of Gold Core and one Master of Nascent Soul. The blood of the Mu Family was really astonishing!
Shiao Chen was shocked. After a while, he regained his composure. After thinking for a while, he said, "Does my Foundation Establishment have anything to do with the Mu Family?"
Qingyun Taoist smiled and nodded, "That's right!" Later, Shiao Chen finally understood the whole matter under his explanation.
As the strongest cultivator in Zhao Kingdom, Mu Family was superior to all the sects as a cultivating Family. It has been hundreds of years since they never meddled easily in the cultivation world's combat. On the contrary, Zhao Family would give mercy every hundred years, allowing a small number of sects in Zhao Kingdom to send their brilliant disciples to Mu Family for three years of study.
In three years, all the disciples who succeeded in coming out of Mu Family had great benefits.
According to the usual rules, the Mu Family would permit the Eight State's sects to send their disciples twenty years later. However, for some unknown reason, they began in advance this time, and the time was one month later.
"The cultivation level of Beihua State is the last in Zhao Kingdom. If it weren't for the fact that Luoyun Valley eliminated the Flaming Sect with two Gold Core cultivators and won a great victory in power, I'm afraid that we wouldn't have the qualification to be invited." Qingyun Taoist stroked his goatee and smiled, "We got a spot this time. You should head to Mu Family tomorrow. Their ability will surely help you to be a cultivator of the Foundation Establishment."
"Yes, Master." Shiao Chen said respectfully with excitement in his eyes.
"Shiao Chen, although most of those who went to the Mu Family could get great benefits, there were also those who were unlucky to die in three years without reason. Be careful. Don't force it if you can't do it. Do you understand? " Alchemy Taoist said in a low voice with worry flashing across his eyes.
Shiao Chen bowed deeply and said respectfully, "Master, don't worry. I will be careful."
"Brother, too much concern disturbs your mind." Qingyun Taoist shook his head and said with a smile, " The cultivators who set foot on the path of cultivation are going against the heavens in search of a chance to survive in the vast world. The road of cultivation was filled with difficulties and hardships. If one didn't have the courage, no matter how talented one was, it would be difficult for him to become a great man!"
"Senior brother, you are right." Alchemy Taoist laughed bitterly. "Shiao Chen, you can go back and make some preparations. I will permit you to go home tomorrow and then go to Yingzhou."
"Thank you for your grace!" Shiao Chen was overjoyed. He would be away for three years, so he should go home and tell them about this in case his parents were worried.
"Well, off you go."
