Da Xuan Martial Saint-Chapter 822 - 449 The End of Heaven and Earth_2
Chen Mu knew that he might be worrying unnecessarily, as there had been no calamity caused by the Ancient Demons since the Primordial Era. Even if that were to happen in the future, it would be hard to predict how many years it would be from now. Nonetheless, having reached his current realm, he could hardly remain indifferent.
"My strength is still lacking..."
Chen Mu looked down at his hand and clenched his fist.
With his present strength, he could sweep across the world invincibly, but it seemed he could not relax. The existence of Xunmu Cave Heaven and the Ancient Demon Clan were daunting shadows that he could not dispel. Although he was strong now, if he were to encounter beings like Xunmu, who had reached the God Realm, he would still feel insignificant.
"I should go back first."
After a brief moment of contemplation, Chen Mu made his decision.
From the time he secluded himself to solidify his soul heart, then to breakthrough into the Blood Exchange Realm, and now achieving great success in Blood Refinement, this period of cultivation was quite lengthy, spanning over a year and a half, almost two years.
He did not know the current situation in Da Xuan, nor how things were in Cold North Path, nor the safety of those in the Seven Profound Sect, including Hongyu, Yue’er, and others. It was indeed time for him to return.
Although what lay before him included further cultivation, the third step of Artistic Conception that needed comprehending, and the Void Dao that required mastery, these could be gradually understood during his journey.
Moreover.
To cultivate the Blood Refinement Realm to perfection and its limits required immense resources. If he were to gather them slowly by himself, it would take a long time; it was better to acquire ready-made ones.
The sects like Mysterious Mechanism Pavilion and Blood Hidden Pavilion had developed over hundreds of years and accumulated quite a lot. Figures like King Han and King Liang, among The Eight Princes of the royal family, must have substantial foundations. Additionally, Ji Yongzhao, the contemporary Emperor Xuan, attacked him when he was breaking through to the Blood Exchange Realm, which meant his enmity with Ji Family now included the whole royal family!
He had always acted clearly in terms of gratitude and enmity.
Ji Family had ruled Da Xuan Dynasty for a thousand years, who knew how many resources they had accumulated. It was time to borrow some.
As this thought arose, Chen Mu no longer overthought, temporarily setting all his emotions aside. Taking one step back, he returned to the undersea cavern, tidied it up casually, and stored the corpse of the Red Dragon, which had been drained of its essence blood, into the Qiankun Bottle. Although this dragon corpse was no longer useful to him, it was still a valuable treasure to the entire Seven Profound Sect. The numerous scales could be used to refine more than one spirit weapon armor, and the other parts were also useful.
After packing everything away, Chen Mu shook casually again, taking out a long robe made of silk from the Qiankun Bottle. This robe was not as simplistic as his previous attire; it was woven from precious millennium ice silkworm silk, presenting a light black color. Though it did not sparkle with spiritual light, its restrained aura looked quite extraordinary, not an ordinary item.
After everything was ready.
Chen Mu took a deep breath, feeling an instant sense of smoothness in his mind. Though he was deep under the vast sea, he felt like a fish swimming freely in the sea, a bird soaring in the sky, a sense of freedom and ease sprang forth within him.
He suddenly burst into loud laughter, carrying the joy of years of hard martial training finally reaching perfection. He then broke through the surface from the bottom of the sea, his tiny figure drawing a blazing and dazzling white line, heading upward.
Splash!!
In an instant, a white streak broke through the blue seawater and emerged, akin to a flying fish leaping out of the water.
The sea surface briefly sank, then a towering spray of water splashed up to near a thousand feet, almost hitting the clouds, but it could not touch Chen Mu’s figure.
Chen Mu’s figure transformed into a tiny black dot, ascending through the sky after emerging from the sea, breaking through thousand-foot heights in no time, piercing the thick clouds, bathing in the radiant golden sunlight.
"Hahaha."
Standing at the cloud’s edge, his gaze met the golden sunshine’s shadows, his entire being seemingly as high as the heavens, gazing down upon the world. His figure connected with the past, as if returning to when he was in Yu County, as a lowly constable, having mastered the Raging Wind Blade Technique and rising for the first time due to Xu Hongyu’s recognition.
From now on, looking at the Da Xuan world, the fish will leap in the vast sea, the birds will fly in the high sky, and all roads will be smooth!
Chen Mu basked in the bright sunlight, briefly closing his eyes to savor the spontaneous sense of ease, the will that everything in the world can be obtained as he wishes, feeling boundless freedom and comfort. Vaguely, even his power of the soul seemed to enhance a little.
Then.
He opened his eyes, looked up at the higher heavens, swung his sleeve, and soared skyward, climbing straight up!
Two thousand feet,
Three thousand feet,
Four thousand feet,
...
In a mere instant, he penetrated the cloud sea, reaching the ten thousand feet high sky.
Pursuing the heights of the heavens is almost a common pursuit for every martial artist. No matter who they are or what their martial arts will is, upon entering the Marrow Cleansing Realm and mastering the Sky Control Technique, they will ascend to the high heavens to overlook the world.
Any martial artist who reaches the Blood Exchange Realm would almost certainly explore the limits of the sky. Being born mortal with a reverence for heaven and earth, yet through diligent martial arts training can ascend to the heavens, standing side by side with the sky, chasing the heights of heaven with martial arts.
Swoosh! Swoosh!!
Upon reaching the ten thousand feet high sky, Chen Mu did not halt but continued his ascent.
