The First Marquis of Daxuan

"I don't want anything."

Zhao Baiqi said solemnly.

Su Mu's face showed a hint of surprise.

The value of the Primordial Realm martial arts is beyond question, and he is prepared to bleed heavily.

Without martial arts techniques from the Primordial Beginning Realm, Su Mu would be stuck at the initial stage of the Primordial Beginning Realm, just like Huo Tu, unable to advance.

Su Mu also attempted to create his own martial art of the Primordial Realm.

But he gave up after trying it.

It's not that it's impossible, it's just too difficult and a waste of time.

Creating your own martial arts style requires a certain amount of luck.

Feeling your way across the river by touching the stones is naturally not as fast or easy as crossing the river by boat.

The arrival of these extraterrestrial visitors, including Zhao Baiqi, gave Su Mu the opportunity to obtain martial arts techniques from the Primordial Realm.

This is where crisis and opportunity coexist.

However, Su Mu also knew that obtaining martial arts techniques of the Primordial Beginning Realm would definitely come at a price.

When he killed Luo Zhao, he originally wanted to get something from Luo Zhao.

As a result, Luo Zhao destroyed all his belongings before he died.

Luo Zhao was a tough guy; he would rather destroy those things than let Su Mu gain anything.

This is a Primordial Realm expert.

Even Su Mu would find it difficult to control them.

Although Zhao Baiqi was considered his friend, Su Mu would never take advantage of his friend for nothing, since it concerned the martial arts of the Primordial Realm.

"To tell you the truth."

Zhao Baiqi said solemnly, "Primordial Realm martial arts are priceless. Even in our place, it's not easy to obtain a Primordial Realm martial art."

To put it bluntly, even if you combined the entire Great Xuan Dynasty, its value wouldn't compare to a single Primordial Realm martial art.

"Since that's the case—"

Su Mu said in a deep voice.

He knew that Zhao Baiqi was not exaggerating.

A martial art at the Primordial Beginning Realm, especially one that allows a Primordial Beginning Realm expert to reach the peak of the Primordial Beginning Realm, can create an invincible powerhouse.

"Therefore, no matter how much you pay, I will always lose out if I use it for trading."

Zhao Baiqi continued, "I might as well take a gamble."

Brother Su, I'm betting on your future!
I'll use the Primordial True Form Technique to bet that you can reach the Heavenly Realm and become immortal!

"At that time, all I'll need to do is ask Brother Su to protect me."

A look of surprise flashed across Su Mu's face.

Let's take a gamble.

Betting on his future?
Su Mu has met quite a few people in his life.

Gamblers were also a common sight among them.

But this was the first time in his life he had encountered someone who would gamble as recklessly as Zhao Baiqi.

"Brother Zhao, do you have so much confidence in me?"

Su Mu chuckled to himself.

“Brother Su, you seem to have no idea what it means to be able to kill Luo Zhao.”

Zhao Baiqi said with a smile, "I'll take a gamble. If I win, I'll make a fortune; if I lose, I won't lose anything."

However, Brother Su, you must promise me that you cannot pass on this Primordial True Form Technique to anyone else.

"can."

Su Mu nodded.

Zhao Baiqi gave Huo Tu a wink.

Huo Tu walked out reluctantly.

Zhao Baiqi waved his hand again, setting up several more layers of restrictions, before slowly speaking and passing on the Primordial True Form Technique to Su Mu.

Su Mu memorized the technique, then sat cross-legged and closed his eyes.

Seeing that Su Mu immediately began to comprehend the cultivation technique, Zhao Baiqi carefully left the main hall and thoughtfully closed the door behind him.

Huo Tu was holding his knife, waiting outside with a bored expression.

"Finished spreading the word? Old Zhao, why don't you take a gamble on me?"

Huo Tu muttered.

"you?"

Zhao Baiqi curled his lip, "You think the Primordial True Form Technique is so easy to practice?"
So what if I have the Primordial True Form Technique? My cultivation level is about the same as yours now.

"Even I can't master the Primordial True Form Technique, do you think you can?"

"If I can't do it, does that mean Su Mu can?"

Huo Tu said indignantly.

"He might not be able to do it, but you definitely can't."

Zhao Baiqi said bluntly.

He wasn't trying to belittle his friend, but the Primordial True Form Technique was indeed very difficult to cultivate. In all the years his family had passed it down, perhaps only one in a hundred people had truly mastered it.

"From what I can tell, Su Mu clearly wants to master the Primordial True Form Technique and then deal with those guys from the Crimson Bright Hall."

Huo Tu wasn't angry. He just pursed his lips and said, "Do you think he can do it?"

"how is this possible?"

Zhao Baiqi shook his head, "Even if Su Mu can master the Primordial True Form Technique, it's not something that can be done in a short time."

Actually, I hoped that after Su Mu learned the Primordial True Form Technique, he could embark on the Heavenly Path with us.

This world is not suitable for cultivators at the Primordial Realm. The only hope of mastering the Primordial True Form Technique lies on the Heavenly Path.

"You're just too cunning!"

Huo Tudao.

"If I were as brainless as you, we would have died countless times by now."

Zhao Baiqi complained.

The two brothers argued and walked further and further away.

…………

Chi Mingtang and several other Tai Chu Realm experts gathered together.

The expressions on everyone's faces were not very pleasant.

When they used to arrive at rest stops, they didn't care about all this.

They each went to find the supplies they needed, and once they got what they needed, they set off immediately.

Who will consider the feelings and thoughts of the indigenous people?

But this time, it's different from the previous times.

There is actually a powerful figure here who could kill Luo Zhao.

Moreover, that powerful figure was a madman who immediately decided to fight to the death.

Left with no other choice, they had to patiently negotiate a deal with Su Mu.

They won't hurt anyone, but Su Mu will allow them to get supplies, and then they will naturally continue their journey.

"Su Mu is too arrogant; he has clearly rejected us."

Chi Mingtang said coldly, "Gentlemen, time is of the essence, and we cannot hesitate any longer."

The seven days are almost up.

If Su Mu still chooses to refuse, then I will take action.

"Gentlemen, are you willing to join me in this effort?"

"We're all in the same boat now."

A powerful cultivator at the Primordial Beginning Realm said, "If we cannot obtain supplies, the danger will greatly increase when we embark on the Heavenly Road again."

"It's better to resolve the danger here than to encounter it later."

“Although Su Mu killed Luo Zhao, he was only at the initial stage of the Primordial Beginning Realm, and he was injured. If we attack together, we might not have to pay a high price to kill him.”

"That's what the other person said."

"Since that's the case, then there's no need for any more hesitation. Let's all attack together! Su Mu must have some secrets to have cultivated to such a level in a place like this. After we kill him, we'll distribute the spoils according to everyone's contribution."

As everyone chimed in, they gradually reached a consensus.

"Then it's settled."

Chi Mingtang said in a deep voice, "We will give him one last chance. If he surrenders when the seven days are up, we will spare his life."

If he remains obstinate, then he can't be blamed for being ruthless!

…………

Su Mu closed his eyes, his aura surging.

If you look closely, you can see that his muscles are constantly writhing, and every cell in his body is frantically absorbing and releasing energy.

If these cells were magnified countless times, it would be discovered that each cell is like a universe, constantly being created and destroyed.

A surge of profound power coursed through Su Mu's entire body.

Meanwhile, on Su Mu's system panel, the points were decreasing rapidly.

This was the first time since Su Mu mastered the Zhou Tian Dao Jing that he felt his strength advancing by leaps and bounds.

In just a short while, he had already broken through to the middle stage of the Primordial Realm.

A powerful force circulated within his body.

Su Mu even felt a strong urge to cheer and roar.

He had a feeling that if he were to encounter Luo Zhao again, he wouldn't need to put in so much effort.

His current strength is almost enough to crush Luo Zhao.

He was the same person before his breakthrough, completely overwhelming everyone else.

The massive amount of points poured in had a very noticeable effect.

Without any hesitation, Su Mu continued to improve.

The points I've accumulated over the past few days are going to be used here.

His cultivation level was increasing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

If Zhao Baiqi were here right now, he would definitely doubt his own eyes.

The Primordial True Form Technique is a family heirloom of the Zhao family, but starting from Zhao Baiqi, going back ten generations, only one person has cultivated this technique to perfection.

Cultivating body-refining techniques is inherently difficult, let alone the Primordial True Form Technique, which is a martial art of the Primordial Realm.

The prerequisite for cultivating this technique is to cultivate the physical body to the Primordial Realm, and those who can achieve this are one in ten thousand.

To improve further would be virtually impossible.

Even with Zhao Baiqi's talent, he has only just begun to grasp the Primordial True Form Technique. The initial stage of the Primordial True Form Technique is equivalent to the early stage of the Primordial Realm.

Only after achieving a minor success can one break through to the middle stage of the Primordial Realm.

Zhao Baiqi thought his aptitude was pretty good, but he would need hundreds of years of hard work to break through to the minor mastery level.

However, Su Mu has only spent a short time cultivating the Primordial True Form Technique to the minor completion level, and is still advancing towards the major completion level.

He had never even heard of such a cultivation speed, let alone seen it before.

Unfortunately, Zhao Baiqi did not have the opportunity to witness this scene.

Su Mu poured all the points on the system panel into the Primordial True Form Technique.

In an instant, the Primordial True Form Technique had reached the Great Perfection stage.

Su Mu's cultivation level also advanced to the high stage of the Primordial Beginning Realm.

He let out a low roar, and his body swelled to more than twice its original size.

Every cell in my body seemed to have become a tiny universe.

These microcosms contained boundless power, which surged into Su Mu's body, giving him an unprecedentedly powerful feeling.

If it is said that a Primordial Realm expert generates a world within their body, the more complete the world, the greater their power.

So, Su Mu now has more than one world evolving within him.

Every cell is a prototype of a universe. Although these universes are still very primitive, as long as they continue to evolve, one day they will become real universes.

At that time, Su Mu had no idea how powerful he would become.

Calling him a creator god wouldn't be an exaggeration.

Of course, even if one cultivates the Primordial True Form Technique to perfection, the universe within a cell cannot evolve into a real universe.

The cells in his body are now simulating the universe, thus giving birth to chaotic power.

This chaotic power washed over his body, tempering his muscles, bones, and skin, and continuously enhancing his life essence.

This is the true essence of the Primordial True Form Technique.

I don't know how much time has passed.

Su Mu finally slowly opened his eyes.

A glimmer of light, almost tangible, flashed and disappeared in an instant.

He stood up, and a series of crackling sounds came from his body. He then expanded and shrank several times before returning to normal.

Looking at Su Mu now, he is even thinner than before.

Although slender, his body lines were full of primal power, his skin was as smooth as jade, and a chaotic aura could be faintly seen flowing between his muscles.

He is standing right here, but if you don't see him with your own eyes, you can't feel any of his presence at all.

He seemed to have completely merged with heaven and earth.

If a martial artist were to use their divine sense to perceive this place, they would only sense a chaotic aura, but would not be aware of its existence.

This means that, if Su Mu wanted to, he could completely avoid the perception of most martial artists.

This was an unexpected bonus.

Su Mu's real gain was the increase in strength.

He slowly raised his hand, and the surrounding space trembled.

Su Mu clenched his fist lightly.

Centered on his fist, a spiderweb-like crack appeared in the space.

The seemingly unbreakable spatial barrier was as fragile as glass under his overwhelming power.

Su Mu could clearly sense that the vast world could no longer contain him.

He had to be very careful not to shatter the space.

Now, if he wanted to, he could easily destroy this entire world.

"The points I've accumulated over this period are only enough to upgrade the Primordial True Form Technique to the Great Perfection level. The points needed for further advancement are far too many."

Su Mu thought to himself.

Even if he had enough points, he wouldn't be able to raise the Primordial True Form Technique to its perfect state.

Because once he is promoted, he will completely destroy the entire world.

He is currently only at the Great Perfection of the Primordial Realm, and the Great Thousand World can barely support him.

Once he breaks through to the peak of the Primordial Realm, it will be like a mountain pressing down on a ship, instantly crushing it.

The level of the Great Thousand Worlds is not high enough to support a powerful being at the peak of the Primordial Realm.

If Su Mu wants to break through to the peak of the Primordial Realm, he must leave the Great Thousand World.

"Is this heavenly road truly impossible to traverse?"

Su Mu muttered to himself.

Just then.

Suddenly a loud shout came from outside.

"Brother Su, the Chiming Hall has come to pay a visit. Please show yourself."

The voice went directly into Su Mu's ears, and was extremely rude.

Su Mu frowned slightly and took a step forward.

With that step, his body vanished instantly, reappearing before Chi Mingtang.

Su Mu's sudden appearance startled Chi Mingtang.

Despite Chi Mingtang's cultivation level, he was completely unaware of how Su Mu appeared.

He was startled, but then he thought of his companions nearby and felt reassured.

Zhao Baiqi and Huo Tu approached Su Mu and whispered, "We couldn't stop him; he insisted on seeing you."

Su Mu shook his head, indicating that it was alright.

"Brother Su, the seven days we agreed upon have passed. Can you give me an answer now?"

Chi Mingtang looked at Su Mu and said in a deep voice, "Don't blame me for urging you, it's just that we can't stay in this place for too long."

If Brother Su is willing to help us, we will leave once we have what we need; this would be a good thing for both of us.

"Is that so? After you leave, the world may not be able to recover its vitality for thousands of years. So what you said is right, it's a good thing for both sides?"

Su Mu gave a cold laugh and said sarcastically.

These people are basically here to plunder the land.

If we satisfy their desires, the world will suffer a great loss of vitality, and it may not be able to recover for thousands of years.

"So, Brother Su, you are determined to refuse?"

Chi Mingtang's smile gradually faded, and he slowly said, "Brother Su, please forgive my bluntness."

You are not the master of this land.

We ask for your opinion out of respect, not because we are afraid of you.

If you remain obstinate, then we won't waste our time.

If Brother Su intends to stop us, then we will have no choice but to become your enemy.

"Can you represent other people?"

Su Mu looked at Chi Mingtang and said calmly.

Chi Mingtang glanced at Zhao Baiqi and Huo Tu and said coldly, "Apart from those two and Qian Gong Liu, everyone else thinks the same way I do."

We don't have much time to waste.

Brother Su, I'm giving you one last chance. Will you agree or not?

What if I say no?

Su Mu said calmly.

Zhao Baiqi and Huo Tu both stood behind Su Mu.

"Chimingtang, don't be impulsive. You are no match for the three of us."

Zhao Baiqi said.

Zhao Baiqi was not only helping Su Mu, but also helping Chimingtang.

He has always believed that harmony should be the most important thing.

Everyone's goal is the Celestial Realm, so what's the point of fighting and killing?

However, Akameidō did not appreciate it.

He glanced at Zhao Baiqi and Huo Tu, a hint of disdain flashing across his face.

"You two should stop talking."

Chimingtang said coldly, "If you want to bully the weak with numbers, then you've chosen the wrong people."

Is it about having more people?

He snorted and clapped his hands.

boom!
Figures appeared from all directions.

Zhao Baiqi and Huo Tu's expressions both changed.

They looked around and found themselves surrounded by a crowd.

Apart from Qian Gong Liu, all the other powerful beings from the Primordial Realm who descended to this world gathered together.

Chimingtang actually managed to unite everyone.

Did the worst-case scenario still happen?

Zhao Baiqi and Huo Tu took a deep breath and looked at Su Mu at the same time.

They warned Su Mu, but he still insisted on going his own way.

Given the current situation, things are unlikely to end well.

"Chimingtang, do you really have to do this?"

Zhao Baiqi said in a deep voice.

You shouldn't be asking me that.

Chimingtang said coldly, his face expressionless, "I gave you a chance."

It's because you're unwilling to appreciate it.

Since you're so determined to die, then I have no choice but to grant your wish.

"The two of you."

Su Mu suddenly spoke up, "This is a grudge between me and them, and has nothing to do with you two. Please step aside."

"Brother Su, are you looking down on us?"

Zhao Baiqi and Huo Tu's expressions changed, and they said in a deep voice, "Although we are not willing to do this either, we are by no means people who would desert in the face of battle."

It's just a battle; killing us won't be that easy.

You've misunderstood.

Su Mu shook his head and said calmly, "I'm not looking down on you, but I can handle these guys on my own. You two don't need to lift a finger."

You all step aside and watch how I annihilate this enemy. (End of Chapter)
