Chapter 677: The cost is beyond expectation
It was not until the eighth year that this isolated place finally saw some changes.
The silent ancient tower was shining brightly, and a red light flowed from bottom to top. The door of the ancient tower, which had been sealed for many years, slowly opened at this time.
In the ancient tower, the fire sea was spreading, and the blazing true fire filled every part of the ancient tower.
As Chu Mu walked out slowly, the surging true fire gathered towards him visibly, but his thin body seemed like a bottomless pit. As he walked, the blazing true fire filled in the tower was also absorbed into his body.
When Chu Mu stepped out of the ancient tower, the last ray of true fire in the tower just sank into Chu Mu's body, and the tower door slowly closed.
Eight years of spring and autumn, for him, was just a moment.
Or in other words, eight years of spring and autumn, just let him recover some mobility.
He was wearing a thin blue shirt, his face was pale, and his hair was white, which made him look more vicissitudes of life as he walked.
A trace of spiritual consciousness flowed, and he could sense everything inside and outside his body.
In the eight years of spring and autumn, the injuries limited to the body had naturally healed.
But for him, the real injury was obviously not the injury limited to the flesh and soul.
It was in his own life source, in the foundation of immortal cultivation related to the Sun True Fire!
And this time, the price he paid seemed to be far beyond his expectations.
According to his prediction, this time, he took a portion of the life source, which should be about a hundred years of life, and this error should not exceed ten years.
But the fact is that this time, he lost two sixty years of life and twenty years.
One hundred and forty years of life, even for the Nascent Soul, is obviously not a time that can be ignored.
As for him, he practiced both the Dharma and the body, and although his life span exceeded that of ordinary immortals, the fire attribute was not a way to maintain health, not to mention the existence of the Great Sun True Fire, which has a great proportion of destructive nature.
He also practiced the true sword, and his sharpness remained the same for hundreds of years, tempering his spirit and energy, and his killing nature was strong. These factors combined, although it could not be said that his life span was shortened, it was obviously impossible to increase his life span.
And this time... 140 years of life, plus his hundreds of years of immortality...
He has lived for more than half of his life!
And the damage to the source of the true fire, if he had not made all the preparations in advance and used the resources of the Changsheng Sect to refine several kinds of Danwen medicines of the third-grade upper grade to protect his own cultivation, his cultivation of the late Jindan stage, which he had just stepped into, would probably fall directly back to the middle Jindan stage.
And this is just the most superficial damage.
According to his expectation, the magnificent cultivation of the late Jindan is like a tall building. He cut a piece of the true fire origin, which should be cut at the top of the tall building. It should not be difficult for him to make up for the missing piece later.
But the fact is that the cut piece is at the bottom of the tall building, in the foundation!
What this means is naturally self-evident.
The solid foundation he has always pursued has undoubtedly disappeared after this damage.
If you want to make up for this loss, you can either sort it out and fill it in with a long time, or it depends on his Angong Zaohua Pill and the final nirvana rebirth.
"I hope so..."
Chu Mu looked up at the sky. As he rolled up his sleeves, the chain formation that had isolated this Zhenchuan Palace from the world for many years slowly dissipated like ice and snow melting.
When the rippling array ban light dissipated, the outside world finally appeared above this Zhenchuan Palace in the sky.
In the depths of winter, the cold wind was like a knife, rolling up the snow and wind. Every time the snowflakes fell, they could never break through the strong fire in this fiery world. The collision of snow and fire, in the blink of an eye, was filled with large patches of fog and steam, covering the sky.
Chu Mu stared blankly for a moment, then came to his senses a little, took a step forward, and an indescribable feeling of weakness from the lack of origin surged into his heart.
When his steps paused slightly, Chu Mu seemed to have noticed something, and his eyes moved, and he saw a red glow flying in the sky outside the Zhenchuan Palace, and in the blink of an eye, it was in front of him.
When the red glow dissipated, a graceful figure was also included in Chu Mu's vision.
"Brother Chu... are you injured?"
The girl's smile faded, and she asked anxiously.
"Just a few minor injuries, nothing's wrong."
Chu Mu waved his hand and immediately changed the subject: "Miss in red...how are you doing recently?"
"After receiving the message from you, Brother Chu, Hong'er arranged for Zhenjie Pavilion to move to Da Chu. Now most of Zhenjie Pavilion's industries have also moved to Da Chu..."
"Brother Xu Yuan and his family also followed to the Seven Cities of Beidou. Previously, Brother Xu Yuan also wanted to come with Hong'er to pay a visit to you, Brother Chu, but you were in seclusion, so Brother Xu went back to Tianshu City to make arrangements..."
"Hong'er has been quite free these past few months, so I just took this opportunity to stroll around the sect. Hong'er has never been to the main peak of Changsheng Xianshan before... "
Chu Mu was surprised: "Are you still a disciple of Changsheng Sect now?"
"I haven't been for a long time."
Chang Hongyi shook her head: "There was internal turmoil in Changsheng Sect before, and it went through a major reform, clearing out a large number of non-core disciples, and Hong'er took the opportunity to leave Changsheng Sect..."
As he spoke, Chang Hongyi looked around the surrounding mountains, and was obviously a little emotional: "If it weren't for you, Brother Chu, Hong'er would probably never be able to enter the Changsheng Mountain Gate again in this life..."
Chu Mu smiled: "If Miss Hong'er wants to, I can arrange for you to enter Changsheng Sect again."
"As long as you want, Brother Chu, even if you are a maid in the True Transmission Palace, Hong'er can do it..."
Chang Hongyi blinked, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and looked at Chu Mu with a pair of watery eyes, which seemed to have a special meaning.
Chu Mu was silent for a while, and then changed the subject: "Have you encountered any troubles in the past few years?"
Seeing this, Chang Hongyi curled his lips, waved his sleeves, and said indifferently: "With your reputation, Brother Chu, and now you are the true disciple of Changsheng, everyone in the Changsheng Sect is welcoming you, so who dares to cause trouble for Zhenjie Pavilion..."
Chu Mu asked: "Righteous Alliance, Chen family... no unusual movements?"
"They probably have no power."
"Over the years, the Chen family has been almost going from bad to worse, relying on the Jiaolong clan to barely hold on. The temptation of the blood spirit fruit is really too great... and the Northeast Righteous Alliance, after the previous turmoil caused by you, Brother Chu, has slowly calmed down. , now it is the same as before, both sides are wasting time, and I don’t know when it will end...”
While speaking, Chang Hongyi handed a storage talisman to Chu Mu: "The situation of Zhenjie Pavilion over the years, as well as some spiritual materials collected, are all in here, Brother Chu, please count them."
"Also, a few years ago, a female foundation-building cultivator named Zhao Shuang came to Zhenjie Pavilion, saying that she knew you, Brother Chu, and had something important to ask you..."
"But at that time, Brother Chu had already returned to Changsheng Sect, and it was difficult to contact you..."
Chu Mu frowned slightly, raised his hand and wiped it, and the sound transmission token floated in his palm. Although there were several sound transmission marks on the token belonging to Zhao Shuang, this sound transmission mark was completely dim.
And this situation is either beyond the range of sound transmission contact, or...death?
Chu Mu asked: "Is this woman going to die soon?"
"I can't tell."
Chang Hongyi shook her head: "This woman is very vigilant and well-prepared, and Hong'er didn't forcefully spy on her."
"Later, Hong'er found out that this woman had been wanted by the Hanhai League many years ago, and several foundation-building elders of the Zhengdao League also fell in her hands..."
Hearing this, Chu Mu seemed to be thinking about something, and a trace of his spiritual consciousness flowed, and several voice transmissions were taken into his perception, but they were all just some voice transmissions requesting an audience. The specific reason and what she seemed to be worried about were not explained in the voice transmission.
"If this woman comes to the Zhenjie Pavilion again, Miss Hong'er, you should keep her..."
"This woman is very involved and has a lot of use."
Chu Mu spoke slowly.
"Hong'er understands."
Chu Mu pondered for a moment, and then said: "In addition, there is one more thing that you need to arrange, Hong'er."
"Here, there is a third-level fire attribute spiritual vein, but its formation is flawed and the spiritual energy leaks out. Miss Hong'er, you go with this formation plate and repair the gap in the formation to ensure that this spiritual vein will not be noticed by others..."
Chang Hongyi was surprised: "Third-level fire attribute spiritual vein?"
Chu Mu nodded: "It should be close to the fourth level!"
Chang Hongyi subconsciously lowered his voice: "Such a grade of spiritual vein, Changsheng Sect... They didn't notice it?"
"This spiritual vein is hidden in the sea of fire, far away from the ground, and is sealed by an ancient formation. It is only slightly damaged. I also repaired it back then..."
Chu Mu spoke slowly, but subconsciously recalled the scene he encountered at the altar that year. His peeping at the spiritual root began with that Fire Spirit Root Pill.
To this day, that Fire Spirit Root Pill has always been one of his biggest regrets.
After all, the effect of the Fire Spirit Root Pill is to strengthen the original spiritual root grade to the current grade limit.
Such a magical effect is undoubtedly a perfect match with his Nirvana Rebirth Plan.
However, even if it is the biggest regret, even if he is only an uncertain guess about the pill formula, his current Nirvana Rebirth Plan has also borrowed a lot from the original Fire Spirit Root Pill.
According to his expectation, the key to the Nirvana Rebirth Plan is to seize the fortune of people and the fortune of heaven and earth.
And the fortune of the spirit vein is also a part of the fortune of heaven and earth. The third-level fire attribute spirit vein is naturally a very key part of the plan.
Just like the Fire Spirit Root Pill that has been nurtured for countless years, it plunders the fortune of the spirit vein.
Chang Hongyi said with some worry: "This spiritual vein is located in the territory of Da Chu. Brother Chu, you are hiding it now. If the Changsheng Sect finds out, will they do anything to you, Brother Chu..."
"It's okay."
Chu Mu waved his hand. He looked up at the main peak of the fairy mountain. His eyes moved slightly, and he was obviously thinking about something.
Seeing this, Chang Hongyi hesitated to speak, but in the end he didn't say much. He put away the formation plate handed by Chu Mu. After a few words, he turned into a red cloud and flew away again...
