Divine Soul Tree (Part 1)

He Tianqiang was one wealthy man; fifteen hundred thousand spirit stones was a large sum. Daoist Nan Xing didn’t ask for He Tianqiang’s belongings since Mu Yu only wanted the divine soul talisman, nor did he intend to take any. Mu Yu just taught him how important it was to live an upright life. He, as a matter of fact, called out to Mu Yu headed out to cast the formation and reminded, “Sir, you forgot the spirit stones.”

“You can have them. I don’t need them.” Mu Yu wasn’t being generous. He just liked the upright elder and offered them out of pity.

“I cannot do take them when I did not earn them. You have done more than I could repay you for. I cannot accept these spirit stones.”

“In that case, I’ll use them as your mountain protection formation’s formation foundation.”

Smiling, Mu Yu drew the spirit stones over. In reality, a hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones were a drop in the bucket for the formation Mu Yu planned to cast.

Formation foundation expenditure in combat and when casting formations were not equal. For instance, Mu Yu was able to cast a mountain protection formation sturdy enough to withstand a Body Severing Realm cultivator’s assault using eight Greater Heaven Stage formation foundations.

Because Southern Star Taoist Temple couldn’t afford Greater Heaven Stage formation foundations, they could use second hand Greater Heaven Stage formation foundations. If no Body Severing Realm cultivator ever attacked, the formation wouldn’t need to be updated for five years. If they did come under attack, it’d last them a day, at least.

There was no need to worry Talisman Sect would try to silence Southern Star Taoist Temple for Mo Ziming’s failure already exposed Talisman Sect’s deeds; surprise was no longer an element they could capitalise on. If Formation Sect’s members were jeopardised, fingers would immediately be pointed at Talisman Sect.

Mu Yu clobbered himself on the head and shook Shadow Splitter Sword, separating it and Wood Spirit Sword. He grabbed hold of Wood Spirit Sword and imagined a divine soul wood. In an instant, Wood Spirit spawned several branches. The branches got feisty as soon as Mu Yu tried to get close to the branches.

“What the heck? They’re attacking even me.”

The branches withered the instant they touched Mu Yu’s blood.

“Xiaoshuai, let me experiment with you.”

“No, my skin is too tough for the weakling. Try on Caterpillar.”

“I’m a plant in the first place. How does a plant control a plant, genius?”

“I know,” remarked Mu Yu, looking over to three unconscious people.

Mu Yu snapped a branch and then touched Ma Mingxun with it. The shoots penetrated Ma Mingxun’s body, waking him up. Mu Yu could tell he had control over Ma Mingxun’s mind, so he commanded, “You can’t see me.”

Ma Mingxun picked himself off the ground and thumped his aching head. He was looking in Mu Yu’s direction, yet he didn’t see the latter. He opened the door and strolled out to see the devastated sight of Southern Star Taoist Temple. All of a sudden, he regained full brain functioning and exclaimed, “Talisman Sect! Crap! Feng Mu!”
