Mortal: Even with a Heavenly Spiritual Root, I still have to try and get my hands on the Little Gree

After traveling for several months, Mu Yu and his two companions finally arrived near Storm Mountain.

Since it would take some time before the spatial rift on Storm Mountain opened, Mu Yu simply began hunting Yinming Beasts in the vicinity.

Due to the special restrictions of this place, the Yinming Beast is almost like a buffet for Tihun. He can absorb the blood of a giant Yinming Beast that is tens of feet tall without much effort.

After the battle, the giant ape, which was about ten feet tall, gradually shrank and transformed into a small, silvery-white monkey, which climbed onto Mu Yu's shoulder and squatted down.

Indeed, at this moment, Tihun was no longer the little green monkey it had been before, but had transformed into a striking silver-white color.

Mu Yu skillfully raised the spear in his hand, split open the head of the withered Yinming Beast, and took off a sizable soul crystal.

Turning around, Mu Yu tossed it to Zi Ling and then headed towards the next location of the dried corpse of the Yinming Beast.

The closer they got to Storm Mountain, the stronger the Nether Beasts they encountered along the way became.

If an ordinary cultivator were to enter this place, even a body cultivator would have to be careful to dodge, as they would be completely unable to fight against this Yinming Beast, which is thirty or forty feet tall.

But for Mu Yu, the more Yinming Beasts the better.

If Mu Yu were to encounter the Great Evolution Divine Lord, he could refine hundreds of Nascent Soul stage puppets.

At the Nascent Soul stage, Mu Yu could truly be called invincible. Even a great cultivator at the late Nascent Soul stage might not be able to defeat him.

This Yinming Beast Crystal can replace the essence of a Nascent Soul cultivator, solving more than half of the problems for the puppet.

After wandering around the foot of Stormwind Mountain for a long time, almost circling the entire mountain, it was almost time for the spatial rift to open.

"Hmm, it's time to go hiking."

"However, these submerged ones are a bit of a problem."

It's fine to make Tihun work hard when traveling normally, but it's not so convenient when climbing mountains if he has the beast bone cart behind him.

Just as Mu Yu was hesitating whether to dismantle the beast-drawn carriage at this moment, several figures slowly appeared in the distance, which made Mu Yu smile.

Because divine sense could not detect him, when Mu Yu discovered the four people opposite him, they also discovered him.

But then, those people turned their attention to Zi Ling and Mei Ning.

Clearly, in such a place where one cannot use any divine sense or magical power, the desires buried deep in the cultivator's heart will be aroused.

In response, Mu Yu stated that those who cannot control their desires have absolutely no hope of overcoming the inner demons of the Nascent Soul stage.

"It's you..."

The leader was naturally Wen Tianren.

This time, Wen Tianren was without Zi Ling by his side, but he still managed to gather quite a few people to venture into Storm Mountain together.

"Very well, just when we were about to get to work, you bunch of laborers showed up."

"It seems my luck is good, and yours is pretty good too."

"After all, if you help me with the work, you won't die."

A smile appeared on Mu Yu's face as he reached out and stroked the silver-skinned monkey perched on his shoulder.

The next moment, Tihun transformed into a giant ape about ten feet tall and roared at the four people in front of him.

This sudden change clearly startled Wen Tianren and his companions.

"If you don't want to die, then come and get some work done."

"First, dismantle the animal-drawn cart, then tie up the animal skin bags inside one by one."

Mu Yu smiled slightly and spoke.

At this moment, Mu Yu could clearly see the resentment and anger on Wen Tianren's face, but after a change in expression, Wen Tianren stepped forward without saying a word and began to dismantle the beast bone cart.

The cultivators following behind Wen Tianren saw that Wen Tianren had taken the initiative to dismantle the beast bone cart, so they naturally stepped forward to help without any objection.

It took two or three hours for the two animal bone carts to turn back into a pile of ropes and bones, as well as several thousand kilograms of water packed in animal skin bags and some other things.

Next, Mu Yu instructed the others to tie all the animal skin bags together with animal skin ropes until they wouldn't fall apart even when the giant ape that Ti Hun had transformed into lifted them. Only then was he satisfied.

At this moment, Wen Tianren and the others were not yet finished with their hard labor. They still needed to smash the white animal bones that made up the animal bone cart one by one and then roughly grind them into the shape of arrows.

It doesn't need to be too elaborate; it just needs to look like an arrow, even if it's crooked or crooked, it doesn't matter.

After all, there's no need to aim specifically when facing those Netherworld Beasts.

They worked for two or three days straight, until they had collected more than three hundred bone arrows, before their hard labor came to an end.

"Alright, the work is done, you...you can leave now!"

Mu Yu waved his hand casually, completely ignoring the resentment in Wen Tianren's eyes.

"Alright, the work is done, you...you can leave now!"

Mu Yu waved his hand casually, completely ignoring the resentment in Wen Tianren's eyes.

A mere Core Formation stage cultivator is nothing more than an ant to Mu Yu, who has already formed his Nascent Soul.

In addition, he was quite curious whether Wen Tianren would be able to form a Nascent Soul after arriving in Tiannan.

Upon hearing Mu Yu's words telling them to leave, Wen Tianren's eyes momentarily froze, then turned into confusion and bewilderment.

Indeed, among those who have served the Six Paths Supreme Saint, Wen Tianren has probably never met anyone as trustworthy as Mu Yu.

After saying that, Mu Yu ignored the reactions of the others.

Mu Yu had the giant ape-transformed Ti Hun lift the several thousand jin of sinking water that was packed in an animal skin bag, and then picked up the animal bone arrows, wrapped them in a huge animal skin, and hung them on his shoulder.

Ignoring the bewilderment of Wen Tianren and the others, Mu Yu led Zi Ling and Mei Ning on a climb of Storm Mountain.

For cultivators from the Netherworld, the journey to Storm Mountain is somewhat dangerous, but as long as they walk carefully and avoid powerful Netherworld beasts, it is still possible to reach Storm Mountain.

What truly made them turn back, and prevented them from truly leaving the Dark Land, was actually the process of climbing Storm Mountain.

There are three main challenges to climbing Storm Mountain: the eerie winds, the gray fog, and the flying hordes of ghostly beasts.

Only by passing these three challenges can one possibly reach the summit of Storm Mountain.

And this Storm Mountain lived up to its name; after climbing for only a short while, a fierce wind mixed with snowflakes howled in.

The snowflakes in the gale were nothing to worry about; as long as one had some animal hide for protection, they could withstand it. What was truly unacceptable to everyone was the dark, malevolent energy carried in the wind.

These dark and malevolent energies, mixed with the gale, ignored almost all defensive measures and blew straight into the bones.

Along the way, Mu Yu occasionally saw corpses frozen into ice sculptures, stuck to the ground like icicles.

Clearly, their preparations were inadequate.

But for Mu Yu, the chill in the gale had already disappeared before it could fully approach.

Even before entering, Mu Yu had already prepared a necklace made of a dozen or so beads with various functions, such as wind-repelling beads, water-repelling beads, cold-repelling beads, dust-repelling beads, and warm jade, and wore it on her body.

In addition, he was wearing similar bracelets on both of his hands.

Naturally, Mu Yu needed to be well-prepared for a place like the Netherworld.

However, Mu Yu has now given those two bracelets to Mei Ning and Zi Ling respectively.

The bracelet's effect was naturally no match for the beaded necklace Mu Yu wore around her neck, so in the strong wind, Mei Ning and Zi Ling huddled very close to Mu Yu to keep warm, the three of them completely huddled together.

Thus, Mu Yu truly enjoyed the blessing of having two wives.

After walking for a while, they came to a sheltered place. The Soul-Crying Beast put down the animal skin bag it was carrying on its shoulder, shrunk back to its original size, and snuggled into Mu Yu's arms, falling fast asleep.

Seeing this, Mu Yu could only rest for a while and wait until Ti Hun woke up before setting off again.

After about four or five days, Mu Yu and the other two finally arrived at a place shrouded in gray mist.

The gray mist looked ordinary, but as soon as you got close, it seemed to come alive and pounced on Mu Yu and the others.

But at this moment, the Bodhi Pearl obtained from the Extreme Yin Island came into play, spontaneously emitting a blue light shield that blocked the monsters.

It seems that without a treasure that can protect oneself, no matter how hard one tries, it may not be possible to climb to the top of Storm Peak.

Thanks to the miraculous power of the Bodhi Pearl, the three of them easily broke through the gray fog zone, but what followed was a large number of Netherworld beasts.

Moreover, this time, the Netherworld Beast can fly.

Although these flying Netherworld Beasts are generally not very large, there are some variants that are several meters in size. And probably because they come in groups, these Netherworld Beasts have no fear of Tihun.

"Take good care of yourself..."

Mu Yu gave a reminder, then released the two women and took out a bow and arrow from his back.

Mu Yu had prepared this thing long ago, carrying it all the way without using it, all for this moment.

At the opportune moment, Tihun found the bag containing a large number of bone arrows from the animal skin bags at his waist and threw it down.

Thus, Mu Yu drew out the beast bone arrow and began shooting at the Netherworld Beasts in the sky.

Occasionally, some Yinming beasts would swoop down and be directly sucked into dried corpses by the Crying Soul.

The corpses of the Netherworld Beasts fell like raindrops.

Upon seeing this, Mu Yu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

These can all be considered future Nascent Soul stage puppets!

This slaughter continued for about seven or eight days. Mu Yu had lost count of how many times he had retrieved the beast bone arrows. In the end, he even threw away his bow and arrows and continued to kill with his spear.

Even with Mu Yu's body, which had cultivated body-refining techniques and studied many secular martial arts, it was almost unable to withstand the strain.

Fortunately, after a series of battles, Mu Yu finally arrived at the top of Storm Peak in time, and the number of Soul Crystals in his hands had reached about eight hundred.

Although the quantity did not exceed a thousand, it was enough for Mu Yu's use.

Next, all they need to do is wait for the spatial rift to open, and then they can leave this place.

Standing atop the mountain, Mu Yu waited for several days before the spatial rift finally opened.

The moment the spatial rift opened, a surge of spiritual energy from the outside world rushed in, and Mu Yu and the others immediately regained their magical power and divine sense.

Clearly, without the release of the aura of spiritual depletion, this Netherworld cannot trap a Nascent Soul cultivator.

As his magical power returned, Mu Yu noticed Wen Tianren, who had followed him there, through his divine sense.

The few people who were originally following Wen Tianren had disappeared without a trace.

"She's quite smart..."

Seeing Wen Tianren flee, Mu Yu didn't intend to eliminate him completely.

Mu Yu put the Crying Soul Beast, which had already returned to its original size, into his spirit beast bag, and then put all the animal skin bags on the ground into his storage bag.

After doing all this, Mu Yu calmly spread his thunder and wind wings on his back, grabbed Zi Ling and Mei Ning in each hand, and transformed into a bolt of lightning, arriving near the spatial rift.

However, after arriving here, Mu Yu was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he took out a megaphone from his storage bag and activated it.

Although the spatial rift doesn't last long, it still gives you enough time to say a few words.

"Senior Rahu, please show yourself!!!"

"Senior Rahu..."

The loud noise, amplified by the megaphone, resounded throughout Stormwind Mountain, but after shouting three times, there was no response.

Seeing this, Mu Yu changed his tune and shouted again:

"Senior Luo Hou, I have clues about the Xuan Tian artifact. Please show yourself!!!"

"Senior Luo Hou, don't you want the Xuan Tian Treasure anymore?"

"Senior Rahu..."

He called out more than ten times in a row, in many different languages, but received no response whatsoever.

Seeing this, Mu Yu could only conclude that Luo Hou could not hear him.

After all, things from the Xuan Tian realm are extremely attractive to true spirits.

Although Mu Yu currently does not possess any Xuan Tian artifacts and does not intend to exchange them for Luo Hou's help, Luo Hou will surely appear once he has heard of the name of a Xuan Tian artifact.

The fact that Luo Hou hasn't appeared now can only prove that he either can't hear or hasn't noticed Mu Yu's voice.

Left with no other choice, Mu Yu had to use the Wind Escape Technique to pass through the spatial rift.

After all, if they don't leave now, they'll have to stay on the top of Storm Mountain for another six months.

Mu Yu had no idea that Luo Hou had been watching him all along.

Rahu, who has lived in the human world almost since birth, likes to observe the little people inside his body when he has nothing to do.

Sometimes, it's quite interesting to watch those little people run out of your body.

Although he was paying attention to Mu Yu and the others, Luo Hou... was essentially no different from not hearing Mu Yu's words at all.

The real reason Luo Hou ignored Mu Yu was... he simply couldn't understand what Mu Yu was saying.

To him, this insignificant person, like an ant, was nothing more than someone who happily shouted a couple of words as he left.

After all, this was a young Rahu, and it was often bullied by the roaming Kunpeng outside. It had no interest in learning a language that was like bacteria to it.

Another reason why Rahu doesn't understand human languages ​​is that there are too many kinds of human languages, and Rahu is wandering all over the human world, so he hears different words almost every moment.

Otherwise, if Rahu, as a true spirit, knew of the existence of the Mysterious Heavenly Object, how could he possibly remain calm?

……

On a murky, dark yellow sea, all was silent. There was no spiritual energy, no sea breeze, and not even a trace of fish in the depths of the water.

This is the boundless sea near Tiannan.

Boundless, windless, waveless, and devoid of any sign of life, it resembled a desolate, lifeless place.

Originally, this situation would have continued indefinitely.

But suddenly, in this desolate place, the seawater began to surge and a black mist rose from the depths of the sea, spreading rapidly.

As the black mist spread, a series of thunderous sounds rang out, and a spatial rift opened up amidst the pitch-black lightning.

Within that crevice, a streak of light flashed by, emerging from the black mist in the blink of an eye and disappearing into the distance.

Tens of thousands of miles away from the black mist, Mu Yu finally stopped his escape.

Feeling the real magical power and nascent soul within his body, a feeling as if he had been reborn surged into Mu Yu's heart.

"Where is this? The spiritual energy is so thin, and yet the seawater is this color?"

At this moment, Zi Ling was finally able to see the outside world.

"Yes, it's so quiet..."

"Something seems amiss. I've never seen such a peculiar sight in the Chaotic Star Sea before; there's not even a hint of sea breeze."

Seeing this, Mei Ning also chimed in.

Mu Yu released his divine sense to scan the area and noticed Wen Tianren flying to the other side at the edge of his divine sense. A mocking smile appeared on his lips.

Clearly, Wen Tianren chose the wrong direction. If he hadn't changed course, he probably would have died in this boundless sea.

"This place is in the southern part of the world, and it is now far away from the Chaotic Star Sea."

After briefly introducing the Boundless Sea and Tiannan, Mu Yu continued to use the Thunderwind Wings to activate the Wind Escape technique to travel.

Although the Thunderwind Wings aren't quite perfect yet, this wind technique is indeed very comfortable for traveling.

After flying for several hours, Mu Yu, along with Mei Ning and Zi Ling, once again set foot on the land of Tiannan.

"The place we are in now should be the Xi Kingdom, which is quite close to the Yue Kingdom where I was born."

"These two jade slips contain the language and script of Tiannan. If you two intend to stay in Tiannan, it would be best to learn a thing or two."

Mu Yu took out two jade slips and immediately recorded the Tiannan script and language into them.

Zi Ling took the jade slip and said meaningfully:

"Judging from Senior Mu's words, does that mean you still have the ability to send the two of us back to the Chaotic Star Sea?"

Upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashed in Mei Ning's eyes. She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

In response to Zi Ling's question, Mu Yu answered quite directly:

"Yes, if you two really want to return to the Chaotic Star Sea, I do have the ability to send you back, but it will take a few months."

"But if you two are willing to stay, I am willing to treat you with the respect due to a concubine, and I will naturally provide all the items you need for cultivation."

"At the same time, if the two of you ever reach the same level of cultivation as me, then it wouldn't be unreasonable for you to become formal Daoist partners."

Mu Yu had no interest in playing any dating games with them and stated her conditions very directly.

If they were willing to stay, Mu Yu would naturally be delighted to have concubines.

If you don't want to, then it doesn't matter.

After all, this world is never short of beautiful female cultivators.
