Da Xuan Martial Saint-Chapter 378 - 255: Descend the Mountain_2

Qin Mengjun had him practice a cultivation technique that indeed had extraordinary aspects, as it allowed the Yuan Gang True Essence to be well integrated into the Power of Heaven and Earth, silently dissolving within approximately forty-five feet around him, centering on him.

"While it is said to be a method of utilizing Yuan Gang, I feel that this technique is probably evolved from the Martial Arts Domain, and it seems more like a ’Domain Embryo Form’."

Chen Mu stopped his movements and waved his hand in the void in front of him.

The air, like the surface of water, suddenly rippled, but quickly disappeared.

In fact, this was a manifestation formed by the integration of his internal Yuan Gang into the Power of Heaven and Earth nearby, resembling a ’miniature domain’, with a very small range of about forty-five feet.

Moreover, compared to the absolute Control Power within a real Martial Arts Domain and the rejection of any Power of Heaven and Earth not within the will of the self, this Falling Flowers without Trace wasn’t as strong, and nowhere near enough to be mentioned in the same breath as a real Domain.

Like Qin Mengjun’s Qian Heaven Domain.

Within those three feet around her body, she could almost truly isolate everything except the Strength of Qian Heaven, whereas his Falling Flowers without Trace, even if it merged within a forty-five feet range around him, was far from accomplishing that.

"At my current limit, using this Falling Flowers without Trace within a three feet range around me, I can probably achieve an 82% separation." Chen Mu waved his hand again and the air rippled once more.

At this moment.

Under the control of his will, he mimicked Qin Mengjun’s manner of forcefully expelling all other Powers of Heaven and Earth except Qian Heaven, but even at his limit, he could at most allow the nearby Qian Heaven to occupy eighty percent while others took up twenty percent.

Around the body within three feet, an 82% separation is meaningless, but if it could affect a range of forty to fifty feet, it would indeed qualify as a Pseudo Domain, imposing certain suppression on others. An area of three feet could only enhance oneself, but the timing was perfect for him since he did not need that enhancement, because he practiced the complete Qiankun Artistic Conception, which could utilize any natural Momentum.

"Qiankun Cycle."

Chen Mu’s eyes flickered slightly, maintaining the technique of Falling Flowers without Trace, he suddenly deployed the Qiankun Artistic Conception on top of it, further transforming the Power of Heaven and Earth within three feet around him towards the Strength of Qian Heaven.

Falling Flowers without Trace, Heaven and Earth Wheel Turn.

The combination of these two forces actually raised the Strength of Qian Heaven around Chen Mu by another level, turning it into a 91% separation, where the Strength of Qian Heaven occupied ninety percent and all other powers combined took just ten percent.

Under such circumstances, Chen Mu went further, deliberately weakening the Kun Earth Artistic Conception, reducing the proportion of Kun Earth even more.

Finally.

With a slight flash in his eyes, and a gentle touch of his tiptoe on the ground, his whole body floated up like a feather, reaching the top of a tree more than ten feet high and standing on a green leaf.

The fine branches of the green leaf bent slightly, yet it held Chen Mu’s weight, allowing him to stand on the green leaf!

The weight of the human body comes from Kun Earth, completely isolating the Power of the Earth allows one to float in the air like Qin Mengjun. Even if one cannot completely isolate it, achieving a separation of ’nine to one’ or even lower, can make one’s entire body weight seem as light as a feather.

Chen Mu lightly tapped his foot, and his entire body drifted from the green leaf, sweeping through the air towards the distance. There was no sandstorm or clouds or fog nearby, nothing he could step on to lend him support, but at this moment, as light as a feather, even a single touch in the air was enough for him to ripple the air beneath his feet and leap further away.

"Although it doesn’t have the effect of suppressing others, with this Falling Flowers without Trace technique, my own performance has become much more flexible. It’s really a pity that I did not learn this technique sooner."

Chen Mu reflected internally.

Although cultivation is personal, at times, it truly depends on the mentor to teach the way in.

Without Qin Mengjun’s guidance, he had no idea when he would have come to know of the existence of Falling Flowers without Trace, let alone cultivating it, and only after achieving some success, did he realize that this technique and Qiankun Artistic Conception were almost a perfect match.

But compared to Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal, Falling Flowers without Trace is much more common; anyone can practice it, yet not many do so, because without the cooperation of the Qiankun Artistic Conception and Heaven and Earth Cycle, its use is actually just so-so.

The common may not necessarily be bad.

This too refreshed a part of Chen Mu’s understanding of Martial Arts.

"Alright, it’s about time to head down the mountain."

With a thought in his mind, Chen Mu touched back down to the ground and then walked away into the distance.

Compared to the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal, Falling Flowers without Trace was much simpler, with only ’three layers’. Thanks to the efforts of the past month, he had already preliminarily mastered the First Layer, easily incorporating Yuan Gang into the Power of Heaven and Earth.

The second and third layers behind it were indeed developed in the direction of "Pseudo Domain". Explore more at novelbuddy

In fact, Chen Mu had seen this technique before and had even flipped through it, but since the descriptions were all about imitating a domain or something similar, he had only read a few lines before tossing it aside. After all, with his discernment, he would practice the true Martial Arts Domain. In the future, he would eventually cultivate the Qiankun Domain, so he had no regard for something inferior.

Falling Flowers without Trace?

Pseudo Domain?

What are those things, really unfamiliar.

But following Qin Mengjun’s guidance, after he had mastered it, he had only two words—truly amazing.

Putting other things aside for the moment, at least after mastering this technique, he not only truly possessed the ability to "walk on air," but his speed in movement technique had also somewhat increased, greatly enhancing his agility.

If before he had to consider whether he could surpass a top Grandmaster in speed, now he didn’t need to think too much about it. Unless it was a top Grandmaster who truly specialized in "speed," generally no one could outpace him. Even if Qin Mengjun might be faster in flying escape, on the ground, his Abyssal Ground Shrink was unparalleled in the world.

Very quickly.

Chen Mu returned to his own place.

There wasn’t much to pack; he had always been frugal at the Seven Profound Sect.

After a brief tidying up.

Chen Mu went up to the peak’s rear cliff once more, planning to pay another visit to Qin Mengjun, to inform her of his intention to leave the mountain.

But when Chen Mu arrived at the rear cliff, he happened to run into Meng Danyun, who had also come to visit. Meng Danyun was standing respectfully beside a rock, as if she had been standing there for a while, while Qin Mengjun still seemed to be in a trance.

Meng Danyun also noticed Chen Mu.

After paying a slight bow to Qin Mengjun, she quietly moved back a bit and came to Chen Mu’s side.

"Junior Brother Chen."

"Has Master zoned out again?"

Chen Mu asked, looking at Meng Danyun.

Meng Danyun nodded slightly and said, "I’ve been waiting for a while... The Sect has issued an order, dispatching me to Lang Prefecture, and Senior Brother Chu has also received an order. Junior Brother, have you received one too?"

"No."

Chen Mu shook his head and said, "I’ve just entered the Six Viscera Realm not long ago; they probably won’t assign me tasks so quickly. Are both you and Senior Brother Chu going to Lang Prefecture? Then it must have to do with something in the Ice State, right?"

Meng Danyun said, "Yes, it is said that the border of Lang Prefecture is very unsettled, with frequent sightings of the Heavenly Demon Sect and traces of the Heavenly Corpse Sect. We have to be on guard against these as well as settle the refugees who have fled from the Ice State due to the famine, and we are short-handed."

Upon hearing Meng Danyun’s words, Chen Mu fell silent for a short moment, then sighed inwardly.

He had fought against both the Heavenly Demon Sect and the Heavenly Corpse Sect before. Although he hadn’t encountered the Foreign Race from beyond the border, he had heard a lot about them. He could imagine the hell on earth that Ice State had become, a living nightmare for its people.

Having lived among the common people himself, he felt far more deeply about this than the high and mighty Grandmasters and Elders.

Although the Foreign Race was strong, neither the Heavenly Demon Sect nor the Heavenly Corpse Sect was weak. However, if the Eleven State of the Cold North Path worked together, they could easily wipe them out—even half of the Sect would suffice to quickly stabilize the Ice State.

Unfortunately, the current state of affairs in the Eleven State of the Cold North Path was such that the various powers harbored ulterior motives, and unity was impossible to achieve.

In the end, Chen Mu didn’t say much more.

Although he now possessed a certain level of strength, the idea of pacifying the turmoil in the Ice State was a pipe dream, and the thought of unifying the states of the Cold North Path was even more out of reach. What he could do at present was still to look out for himself and keep moving forward with his blade in hand.

Since the Seven Profound Sect had not issued any orders for him for the time being, he decided not to dwell on the matters of the Ice State. Together with Meng Danyun, he awaited Qin Mengjun’s return to consciousness, and after each had reported and bid farewell, they went their separate ways down the mountain—one to the south, the other to the north.
