Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

"Space crevices! Dangerous beasts in a secret realm! I never expected to encounter the two most dangerous things in the Xuan Yang Secret Realm at the same time!" Xu Mu muttered to himself.

The one silently cutting through the Wind Dragon was precisely the most dangerous space crevice in the Xuan Yang Secret Realm. Even a Law Treasure of Rank Ten or above might not be able to withstand it.

Originally, it was difficult to encounter space crevices on the outskirts, but he unexpectedly encountered one as soon as he entered. He didn't know if it was good luck or bad luck.

Xu Mu controlled the Wind Dragon to stop, formed a hand seal, and repaired the cut body of the Wind Dragon.

After taking a glance at the location where the Wind Dragon was cut, he didn't find any traces of the space crevice.

"It's a micro space crevice. No wonder the collected intelligence said to be careful when traveling!" Xu Mu thought to himself.

A micro space crevice refers to an extremely small crack that is invisible to the naked eye but actually exists.

Due to the unique nature of space crevices, divine consciousness cannot perceive them at all.

These small space crevices are like extremely sharp knives. If one were to rashly collide with them, they would likely be cut into pieces.

Even if Xu Mu cultivated his physical body to the level of a Rank Eleven Law Treasure, he had no confidence in blocking the cutting of a space crevice.

The power of space, even the Soul Formation Stage would probably be unable to resist it.

Nowadays, practitioners who enter the Xuan Yang Secret Realm can only explore and advance cautiously, avoiding the misfortune of running into small crevices.

After repairing the Wind Dragon, Xu Mu quickly distanced himself from the space crevice. At the same time, the golden phoenix on the other side had already pounced over.

Its body was covered in golden feathers, resembling metal, exuding a cold and oppressive aura. With two pairs of eagle claws gleaming with cold light, it fiercely grabbed towards the Wind Dragon's eyes.

Roar!

The Wind Dragon quickly dodged, then opened its mouth and spewed countless wind blades towards the golden phoenix.

Faced with the incoming wind blades, the golden phoenix's wings trembled, and a golden barrier appeared, blocking the wind blades. However, it only lasted for two breaths before being broken by the wind blades. Then, an endless number of wind blades vented onto the golden phoenix's body.

Screech!

The golden phoenix let out a mournful cry and fell towards the ground, covered in blood.

Xu Mu controlled the Wind Dragon to stop attacking and flew over to the golden phoenix. He bit it in his mouth and landed on the ground. Xu Mu flew out from the Wind Dragon's mouth and checked the phoenix's condition.

"The injuries are severe, it's basically impossible to save it. But to be able to withstand a blow from the Wind Dragon, this phoenix's bloodline is extraordinary!"

You should know that the Wind Dragon he summoned is comparable to a Nascent Soul stage existence, while this golden phoenix is at most a Rank Seven Demonic Beast. In theory, it should have been torn to pieces.

"And this Demonic Beast, could it not perceive the difference in strength between the two and still dare to come up and die?"

Even a Low Level Demonic Beast knows to seek good fortune and avoid calamity. This one has already reached Rank Seven, so its intelligence shouldn't be much different from an ordinary person's.

He approached the golden phoenix, wanting to examine it carefully. However, this phoenix, dragging its dying body, still wanted to launch an attack at him.

Xu Mu ignored it and used the Soul Searching Technique to examine the phoenix's memories.

In the phoenix's memories, it had been searching for food since birth and fighting with other Demonic Beasts. According to its previous memories, it not only possessed intelligence but also had quite high intelligence.

However, not long ago, a burst of golden light suddenly erupted in the world, and then its consciousness felt as if it had been heavily hammered, completely chaotic and shattered.

"Hiss!"

When Xu Mu searched for memories related to the golden light, he felt as if someone had fiercely stabbed his head with a needle. The pain made him involuntarily gasp for cold air, and he quickly stopped.

Xu Mu practiced his techniques for a while before finally alleviating the sudden pain.

"What exactly is this golden light? Just watching memory fragments can harm me!"

Xu Mu felt somewhat incredulous.

He looked up at the sky, where there was a golden sun emitting a faint light.

"Could that golden light be emitted by the sun? And such a pure golden sun, it's the first time I've seen it!"

When he first entered, he didn't notice it, but now upon careful observation, he realized that this secret realm was vastly different from ordinary ones. It had everything that existed in the outside world, and it could even be called an independent small world.

Just having one sun was unheard of in other people's secret realms.

"Whether it's emitted by this golden sun or not, I should try to stay away from it as much as possible and find the Xuan Yang Holy Water before leaving!"

Before entering the Xuan Yang secret realm, he had heard about its dangers. Now that he had witnessed the mysterious golden light, his understanding of the dangers of the Xuan Yang secret realm had reached a new level.

Being in the Nascent Soul stage did not make one invincible; there were many things here that could cost him his life.

He suspected that the reason why no cultivator could survive in the Xuan Yang secret realm for over a hundred years was probably closely related to that burst of golden light.

And these Demonic Beasts, they were directly struck and lost their senses, attacking anyone they saw.

In this situation, it would be difficult for cultivators to survive.

Fortunately, he had no intention of taking risks.

Xu Mu sealed the soul of the Peng Bird and put it into the Soul Refining Cauldron along with its body.

This Peng Bird was not only a Rank Seven Demonic Beast, but it also had a special bloodline. It could be said that its whole body was a treasure, so Xu Mu naturally wouldn't just discard it.

Anyway, the space in his Soul Refining Cauldron was large enough to hold even a thousand of them.

The Demonic Beasts outside were quite clever, especially the high-level ones. Even with Xu Mu's abilities, it wouldn't be so easy to hunt one down.

"Just hunting Demonic Beasts alone is a huge profit for the forces that enter here! It's just that not many people are interested!"

The three major forces didn't lack Demonic Beast materials, and although these Demonic Beasts had lost their senses, it wasn't easy to hunt them. If they were surrounded, it was very likely that they would end up empty-handed.

Xu Mu's divine sense spread out in all directions, and he could already feel a large number of Demonic Beasts converging towards him.

Obviously, the battle just now had attracted these Demonic Beasts.

Although Demonic Beast materials were precious, Xu Mu had other things to do, so he could only temporarily give up. He controlled the Wind Dragon and prepared to continue tracking the Phoenix's location.

However, before leaving, he approached the location of the spatial crack.

The void in front of him was empty. Xu Mu condensed a fireball and shot it over, only to see it silently cut in half and then explode violently in the air.

With Xu Mu's current cultivation, even casually condensed spells had powerful attack power. Of course, he wasn't trying to test the spell's power, but rather to determine the exact location of the crack.

He used several methods in succession and finally determined that there was a spatial crack about three zhang in length. The width of the crack was even thinner than a hair. With Xu Mu's vision, he could barely see a trace after determining the position. As for his divine sense, he couldn't perceive it at all, as if the two were completely insulated.

"I wonder if this will work!"

Xu Mu hesitated for a moment, then reached out and touched the location of the spatial crack.
