Longevity begins with an old woman

Chapter 269 Yuanding Art
"..."

No one thought that Xu Mu would be so unlucky that two groups of people in a row targeted him and deliberately made trouble for him.

The expressions of these two people are even more arrogant, they almost feel supercilious, their nostrils are almost turned upside down.

Just when Xu Mu was considering whether to resist and prove that he was not a softie, Wu Chun came over again via voice transmission.

This time I was quite anxious!
"Xu Daoyou and the others belong to the Seventh Princess, so they must not be provoked!"

"Seventh Princess? Uh! All right!"

Xu Mu sighed inwardly, and pulled Xu Lingyu to the other side.

The Seventh Princess is the one with the highest talent among all the princesses and princes. She has been praised by the ancestors of the royal family and is also one of the most likely to inherit the throne.

If the contenders for the throne were arranged into three ladders, Li Youlan could only be ranked in the third rank, while the Seventh Princess was in the first rank.

Both the opponent's own strength and the power of his subordinates far surpassed Li Youlan.

For example, the two beautiful women in gauze clothes in front of me are all late Jindan stage, they seem to be full of vitality, and they may become Yuanying Patriarchs in the future. Just because of this alone, they are almost the best among everyone present.

Even Ling Ying, the woman under the Second Prince's subordinate just now, obviously kept a low profile.

Of course, if these two people can cultivate to this level, they are naturally not stupid, otherwise they would not pick Xu Lingyu and Xu Mu to bully, but should choose the two with the strongest strength.

Among the nine groups of people present, these two should be the most talented people, and they can only be ranked second in terms of strength. The first place is two middle-aged men. The nine levels are complete.

These two belong to the eldest prince.

"Hmph! You two are acquainted!" The two women snorted coldly, and studied the formula on the cauldron in front of them.

Xu Lingyu's complexion has become very ugly. Xu Mu's repeated concessions will not only make Li Youlan lose face, but will also be very detrimental to their mission.

Their tasks, one is responsible for attracting remnant souls, and the other is responsible for controlling the cauldron to assist in refining the remnant souls.

Attracting remnant souls is okay, basically there is not much difficulty, but this auxiliary refinement of remnant souls is quite difficult.

The difficulty lies not in whether it can be controlled, but in how far it can be controlled.

The higher the level of control, the better the effect of refining the remnant soul, and the more rewards you will get in the end.

The task reward this time is not divided equally, but calculated according to the amount of effort.

The person in charge of the calculation is the Nascent Soul Patriarch who presided over the task this time.

Now that they are being chased away by others, and they are constantly changing the formulas they study, it is conceivable that their comprehension of the formulas must lag behind everyone, with one wrong step, one wrong step, and Xu Mu's cultivation base is not as good as others, and his alchemy skills are not as good as others. If you are not as good as others, you are likely to get the least reward in the end.

There are only so many rewards, if they are few, others will be more, so two groups of people make trouble for them.

If the reward is too little, it will not only waste the opportunity that Li Youlan had fought so hard to win, but also become the laughing stock of everyone.

"Wait until the mission is over! Explain to Your Highness yourself!"

Xu Lingyu said coldly.

It's kind of like hating iron but not steel!
It was the first time that Xu Lingyu said such a long sentence, Xu Mu was a little surprised, it seems that this person is really a diehard fan of Li Youlan!
"Don't worry! If there is a problem, I will bear it!" Xu Mu said with a slight smile.

With a system in his body, no one can compare to him in terms of comprehension of the formulas.

But he doesn't want to be in the limelight, and now being treated as a persimmon is the best result, as long as the best reward is not too little.

"Humph!"

Xu Lingyu snorted coldly, and didn't want to pay attention to Xu Mu, so she simply walked aside and meditated.

Xu Mu shook his head helplessly, and continued to record the exercises above. Not long after, a skill of "Yuan Ding Zhi Shu" appeared on his system again.

It just became "The Triple Layer of Yuan Ding Zhi Shu"!
There are indeed problems with these formulas!

Xu Mu's heart moved, and he raised one of them to the level of proficiency.

[Is it possible to find out whether the fusion method can be integrated? 】

"Sure enough!"

Xu Mu was overjoyed, and immediately chose fusion. He had already moved his mind to learn all the formulas.

[Please name the spell after the fusion is complete? 】

"The technique of Yuan Ding!"

[Named successfully! 】

Xu Mu then raised one of the doors to proficiency, and the system sounded the fusion sound again.

After the fusion is completed this time, this [Yuanding Art] has reached the eighth level.

Xu Mu left his cauldron and walked towards the cauldron where Wu Chun was.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, who is this?"

Seeing Xu Mu approaching, Wu Chun asked suspiciously.

Time is already short, if you don't hurry up and comprehend your own great cauldron, what are you doing here with me?
"I would like to learn a few more subjects to see if I can understand by analogy!" Xu Mu laughed.

"These spells do have something in common, but unless you comprehend the nine spells at the same time, it won't be of much help, but when the nine spells are combined, the difficulty will be greatly increased. You won’t be able to get into it, but it’s better to learn one kind alone, this is the experience summed up for thousands of years, you should go back, fellow Taoist!” Wu Chun kindly reminded.

If it was really possible to draw inferences by analogy, the person in charge would have told them a long time ago and would not let them waste time here.

"I want to try it! Anyway, it won't take much time!"

Wu Chun tried a few more words of persuasion, but seeing Xu Mu's resolute attitude, he didn't bother to persuade him anymore, and his evaluation of Xu Mu in his heart was inevitably a bit worse.

Originally, he still thought that Xu Mu was a character, able to bend and stretch, but now it seems that he is somewhat overconfident.

Such an obvious thing, but still have to try, is simply a no-brainer.

If it was really useful, other people would have done it long ago, and it would be his turn to say it.

I have only cultivated to the middle stage of the Golden Core at an old age, do I really think that my understanding is against the sky?

Wu Chun said with contempt in his heart.

Xu Mu didn't know what Wu Chun was thinking. After he finished recording the formula on the big tripod, he went to the next big tripod.

Perhaps it was because he had already practiced the three methods, and it was much easier to memorize other exercises now.

"Fellow Daoist, we have chosen this place!"

Seeing Xu Mu approaching, the person beside the cauldron who was contemplating couldn't help but frowned and said coldly.

"I'm just looking around, I won't disturb you two!" Xu Mu smiled and cupped his hands.

In order to avoid provoking the two of them, Xu Mu took the initiative to distance himself, staying at the level where he could barely read the words on it, and the two frowned and reluctantly endured it.

In the same way, Xu Mu recorded the formulas on the four great tripods in a row. At this time, he has learned eight of them, and only the last one is left.

When he walked towards the last tripod among the nine cauldrons, the two people beside him suddenly shouted: "Go back!"

"Two friends, I'm just far away..." Xu Mu wanted to explain.

"Tell you to get out, didn't you hear?" The two still did not back down, even Xu Mu's request to watch from a distance did not agree.

The movement here also attracted other people, and many people who closed their eyes and meditated opened their eyes.

"Fellow Daoist Xu, come back quickly! Those two belong to the eldest prince!" Wu Chun hurriedly reminded via voice transmission.

After all, the two are also allies, if they don't do anything, it won't be like the Fifth Prince confessing afterwards.

Xu Mu acted as if he didn't hear it, still smiled and cupped his hands at the two of them: "There is no rule here that you cannot comprehend the formulas on other cauldrons, so please forgive me for not agreeing to your request!"

The entire hall was suddenly silent, and no one thought that Xu Mu, who was like a soft persimmon just now, suddenly became hardened!

Ling Ying under the Second Prince's subordinate, and the two beautiful women under the Seventh Princess all showed surprise.

Could it be that this old guy's head is flooded, and he wants to use these two people to prove that he is not a soft persimmon?

"you wanna die!"
