Great Xuanwu Sheng

"The two Spirit Ancestors are indeed a little tricky, but there is no need to worry too much."

Chen Mu did not delve into this topic too much, but changed his tone and asked Fang Yuan: "Elder Fang, have you encountered any large settlements along the way?"

Fang Yuan and his group have also explored a large area. In addition, Fang Yuan has escaped all the way here, so he should know some of the areas on the treetops. It would be great if he could show him the way.

In addition.

Since the two Spirit Ancestors are chasing Fang Yuan and others, Chen Mu is hoping that one of them will come to him, preferably the newly promoted Spirit Ancestor, so that he can kill him and solve the problem, so as to avoid more trouble later.

After hearing what Chen Mu said, Fang Yuan hesitated for a moment before responding, "There is indeed a large settlement, but it is located on the upper branch of the Xun tree. The power of the Xun tree that the formation can mobilize is very strong, and even a master in the Blood Exchange Realm may not be able to break it. If we find another team to join forces, it should be a sure thing."

With Chen Mu's strength, it would be much safer to find another team to join forces with him. After all, Chen Mu's strength is comparable to that of the Blood Exchange Realm. The two teams together may not be able to stop the two Spirit Ancestors, but if there is a person who is comparable to the Blood Exchange Realm sitting in charge and commanding a team of people, it would be completely different and enough to move around and resist.

"Too much trouble."

Chen Mu shook his head slightly and said, "I don't know where that settlement is."

He didn't know how the large settlement Fang Yuan knew was compared to the one he encountered before, but at least his strength now was no less than that of Jiang Han, Yan Hong and other two teams, and he was more calm alone. If the wood-seeking power mobilized by the formation was not strong enough, he could even break in and destroy the formation in an instant.

Fang Yuan was helpless to see Chen Mu trying hard, but he was not surprised. Chen Mu was the best in the world in Qiankun martial arts. He could fight against the power of blood exchange with his marrow-washing body. It would be strange if he didn't have the spirit to suppress everything.

He was not worried about other things. With Chen Mu's ability, even if he couldn't take down that large settlement, he could still move forward and backward freely. The key was that there were two spiritual ancestors hiding in the dark, which was extremely threatening. Even if Chen Mu reached that level and could come and go calmly, he couldn't. If he was involved, he would have a hard time surviving.

But he and Chen Mu were not close friends after all. If he went with Chen Mu and encountered any trouble, Chen Mu would probably help him, but it was obviously impossible for Chen Mu to follow his instructions.

"Since Elder Chen wants to try the water in that large settlement, I will lead the way."

Fang Yuan also made a decision quickly.

After all, he was also a great master who was rampant all over the world. He was not indecisive. In this situation, it was his luck to meet Chen Mu. It was impossible for him to abandon Chen Mu and escape alone. It was safer to follow Chen Mu.

Moreover, although the two spiritual ancestors were powerful, the newly promoted one was weaker after all. Compared with the Heavenly Demon Ancestor Yuwen Hao, he might not be able to do anything to Chen Mu even if he suddenly attacked. Unless it was another spiritual ancestor who had survived for thousands of years, it would be a bit threatening. But if Chen Mu could resist one or two, or entangle with him, he would still have a chance to escape.

"Then I'll trouble Elder Fang."

Chen Mu bowed slightly to Fang Yuan.

He and Fang Yuan did not have much friendship, but if the other party wanted to go with him, he did not mind helping him. First, they were both in the Qixuan Sect, and second, the information Fang Yuan brought was indeed valuable and could allow him to prepare in advance.

After the voice fell, Chen Mu's figure flashed and disappeared silently in front of Fang Yuan.

"Elder Chen's method of concealing his breath is also the best of his generation. I am afraid that except for those guys in the Blood Hidden Tower, there are very few people in the world who can surpass Elder Chen in this aspect."

Fang Yuan watched Chen Mu disappear in front of him, and almost immediately detected the surroundings. However, although he knew that Chen Mu was nearby, he could not catch Chen Mu's breath and figure at all. For a while, he was quite shocked.

You know, Chen Mu was only two or three feet away from him. He was still in his sight the moment before, and disappeared the next moment. Even those master killers in the Blood Hidden Tower could not hide from him at such a close distance.

Obviously.

Chen Mu is far better than the marrow washing masters of the same generation in terms of concealing his qi. Even the masters of the Blood Hidden Tower who specialize in this are inferior to him. In the world, perhaps only the masters of the Blood Hidden Tower who are good at hiding and exchanging blood can surpass Chen Mu.

Although Chen Mu is practicing the way of heaven and earth, all martial arts in the world can be practiced, whether it is concealment, escape, attack and kill, or defense, there will be no shortcomings, but the problem is that these skills also need time to practice.

It is not that if you have mastered the realm of heaven and earth, you will naturally know all the martial arts in the world.

Escape techniques, concealment techniques, attack and kill techniques, these are all different means extended from the realm of art, and they all need to spend time to figure out and master them, especially if you want to play a role at the level of the marrow washing master, you must practice to perfection, or even reach the pinnacle, and Chen Mu has obviously done it.

This once again made Fang Yuan feel incomprehensible. Although he understood that the gap between people was huge, he was able to become a master and was also a leader of his generation when he was young. But now he felt that the gap between Chen Mu and himself when he was young was almost greater than the gap between him and those most ordinary outer disciples!

Chen Mu is only over thirty years old. Even though he is extremely talented and can cultivate the Qiankun Domain and the Qiankun Martial Body, it must have taken all his energy. How can he still have time to practice concealment, body skills and other methods? Reaching the pinnacle?

Can the gap really be that big?

Fang Yuan sighed in his heart, but these thoughts were quickly forgotten by him. Now he still has a chance to pass the blood exchange situation. It is said that good and evil depend on each other. If he can survive this disaster and survive, If he meets you by chance, he might be able to do it!

After reaching the realm of marrow cleansing and becoming a master, who doesn't want to cross that hurdle and take the step of exchanging blood?

It's just that this step is difficult. It's not just a simple exchange of martial blood all over the body. The increased martial blood will further stimulate various parts of the body, causing all the acupoints all over the body to open up. The power of heaven and earth will penetrate into the limbs and bones, and every part of the body will be affected. Every detail!

In this process, the heart and soul will also be washed and refined by heaven and earth. It can be said to be a lot of tests. If there is a mistake, the blood exchange will fail, the martial body will be injured, the realm will regress, and even the life span will be lost. In the worst case, it will be more likely to be killed on the spot. die.

It’s a matter of life and death!

As for whether the blood transfusion can be successful, those masters who have reached the perfection of marrow cleansing, even if they cannot clearly judge, can more or less understand how sure they are, and they often need at least 20 to 30% before they are willing to try to attack. .

And the vast majority of masters are not even sure of 20% to 30%. In this case, it is difficult to have the belief that success will be achieved and the determination to move forward. In this case, the probability of success in blood exchange will be lower, and they will not make attempts easily. .

Like Jiang Changsheng.

I have been accumulating before, fighting against the top masters of all parties, sharpening my swords, sharpening my own swordsmanship, and trying to make further progress, building a more solid foundation of the martial body, until reaching the final step, if it were not for Chen Mu , he was able to defeat Jue Dao in the abyss of the earth and sharpen his swordsmanship with Jue Dao. Perhaps he has now passed the blood exchange stage!

Chen Mu didn't know the complicated thoughts in Fang Yuan's heart. At this time, he just gathered his energy and followed Fang Yuan quietly.

He was hiding like this just to see if Fang Yuan could fish out the two spiritual ancestors, Linghuan and Lingji. However, I don’t know if it was due to Fang Yuan’s luck, or if Linghuan and Lingji had already stopped, and Chen Mu followed Fang Yuan. They walked up and down the complex tree canopy for hundreds of miles until they approached the large settlement, but the other party never appeared.

"That's it."

Fang Yuan has been leading the way. Although he couldn't sense Chen Mu's aura and didn't know where Chen Mu was, he knew that Chen Mu was nearby. At this time, he stopped behind a large clump of Xunmu branches and leaves. Point your hand high forward.

Look ahead.

It can be seen that the terrain of that section is a high slope that slopes upward. In other words, it is a wood-seeking branch about several miles wide. It grows slantly and winds all the way up. There are several forked branches there. The place where dry things happen.

This area is very flat and very large, with a radius of nearly twenty miles. It is full of large and small buildings. It is a large settlement of the Lingren tribe. Compared with Chen Mu’s previous relationship with Jiang Han and Yan The place that Hong and others broke through is similar.

"good."

Chen Mu's figure appeared quietly beside Fang Yuan, looking slightly towards the spiritual settlement ahead.

Fang Yuan whispered: "Elder Chen, your concealment skills are superb. Maybe you can try to sneak into that settlement. Destroy one formation node first, which will weaken the power of the formation..."

At first, Fang Yuan did not think that Chen Mu could defeat a large settlement by himself. After all, a team like theirs, with a whole team of people and twenty or thirty masters, might not be able to securely capture a large settlement, and they were scattered in Xunmu Cave. The teams of Grandmasters are not afraid of a single spiritual ancestor, and they are even qualified to surround and kill the ancestor of the Heavenly Demon, Yu Wenhao.

But after seeing Chen Mu's hidden methods, his mind changed.

Although the formations set up by these large settlements are integrated with the entire Xunmu and have unique means of sensing and rejecting the existence of non-spiritual humans, formation perception is ultimately a type of perception, not absolute identification.

Chen Mu's concealment methods are far better than those of ordinary masters, even those of the masters of the Xueyin Pavilion. In this case, it may not be possible to hide from the formation structure of a large settlement and sneak in quietly without touching it.

Although there are certain risks in infiltrating like this, once discovered inside, it is very likely that the formation will be trapped inside and unable to escape. However, similarly, if a key formation node can be directly destroyed on the inside, it will definitely make the entire If the formation is weakened, it will not matter even if it is exposed. If the formation is weakened, it may not be able to trap Chen Mu!

In this case, Chen Mu might really be able to capture a large settlement!

If you could monopolize the resources of a large settlement...

Fang Yuan couldn't contain the excitement in his heart just thinking about it. Although the person who could monopolize the resources was not him but Chen Mu, even if he was just watching this kind of thing, his heart would inevitably be filled with ups and downs.

Moreover, in that case, he can play a more or less role on the outside. At least he can divert some of the attention of the spirit tribe and give Chen Mu more room to display. In this way, he can play his role and gain face. To share a little profit, even if it is just a small amount, it will definitely be more than what everyone would get if he followed other teams.

but.

Just as he was making some plans in his mind.

But Chen Mu was seen walking out from behind the huge spiritual leaves and walking towards the spiritual settlement ahead.

"Elder Chen?"

Fang Yuan was slightly surprised, and then he saw Chen Mu walk a few steps forward, and his figure was already hundreds of feet away, approaching the spiritual settlement.

The formation of the spiritual settlement was connected to Xunmu, and almost the next moment, it seemed that Chen Mu's approach triggered something, and waves of surging Xunmu power roared up, and pieces of spiritual light in the settlement within a radius of 20 miles rose and spread toward the sky, and finally connected together at a high place, turning into a green curtain, covering the entire settlement.

The Xunmu formation is fully awakened!

Chen Mu heard Fang Yuan's words, and he also knew that Fang Yuan's proposal was somewhat feasible. He could indeed try to conceal his aura, bypass the formation, sneak into the settlement in advance to destroy a node to weaken the Xunmu formation.

But he didn't plan to do so.

If he sneaked in quietly, if he was discovered before the destruction, he would still have to resist the power of the formation from the inside, and the situation would be somewhat dangerous. Once Ling Huan, the spiritual ancestor, suddenly appeared, he might be trapped in it and difficult to escape.

And now he wanted to use the Xunmu formation to test the power of his Qiankun martial body.

Swish!

Almost in the next moment, Chen Mu's figure turned into a residual shadow, and in an instant, he had directly approached the edge of the formation that protected the entire settlement. Then he raised his right hand and punched down.

This punch was like a falling star, carrying the majestic power of Qiankun, condensing into a wheel seal of heaven and earth, and pressing on the surface of the formation light curtain. In an instant, it seemed that the whole space was shaking, and the void seemed to form ripples. The formation light curtain covering the entire settlement flickered violently, as if it had endured an extremely terrifying blow, and made an unbearable buzzing sound!

Crack! Crack!!!

Under Fang Yuan's somewhat unbelievable gaze, he saw that Chen Mu's punch caused the void to break into a white crack that stretched nearly ten feet, and forcibly crushed the light curtain on the surface of the formation, and even tore it into a huge hole!

After crushing the light curtain of the formation, Chen Mu's fist force did not stop, and spread directly to the inside of the light curtain of the formation, and spread to the top of the large settlement. Then, as Chen Mu's mind moved, it turned from gathering at a point to spreading, and suddenly turned into a huge fist print that stretched for dozens of feet, pressing down with a bang.

"What?"

"What's going on!"

"The formation was... This is impossible!"

From the awakening of the Xunmu formation to Chen Mu's brazen attack, it was only a matter of a moment. Many spirit people had not even reacted yet, and some people just walked out of the building and looked up at the sky.

It was precisely at this glance that Chen Mu saw with his own eyes that a fist fell, shattering the light curtain of the formation, and then the fist force broke into the inside of the formation, turning into a giant fist print that stretched for dozens of feet, like the collapse of the sky, a scene of overwhelming pressure!

A scene of shock!

"Not good."

"Run!"

Some of the closest spirit people finally reacted when they saw the fist mark falling, but at this time, the majestic pressure of the universe had already fallen, making people almost suffocated. Many spirit people felt their breathing stagnate, and it was even difficult for them to move. They could only watch the fist mark fall.

Bang! ! !

The fist mark of dozens of feet finally fell with a bang. The buildings and some spirit people were almost crushed to pieces in an instant. The aftermath of the fist mark shook in all directions and spread hundreds of feet!

A large number of buildings shattered and collapsed, and countless spirit people fled in horror. Some of them did not react at all. They were confused and at a loss. They were swept by the aftermath and turned into a piece of flesh and blood in an instant.

One blow.

The light curtain of the formation was penetrated, and an area of ​​dozens of feet was crushed and shattered, leaving a huge and obvious fist mark on the roots of the Xunmu tree at the bottom. The shattered parts spread hundreds of feet in all directions, creating a devastating scene!
