Chapter 390: Without Spirit Root, Choose Martial Arts!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The next day, Mu Xuan pretended that nothing had happened and continued to feed the horse.
In the evening, Mu Xuan suddenly felt a sharp pain. No, it was five types of pain!
The Five Poison Pill had acted up!
“It’s really a combination of five poisons. Even a martial arts expert will die under this poison…” Mu Xuan evaluated as he felt the poison of the Five Poison Pill.
In any case, he was immortal. With this poison, he would only be able to recover after sleeping for a while. He was not afraid at all!
Seeing that the poison of the Five Poison Pill was about to be withstood, an unexpected scene appeared. Mu Xuan’s door suddenly opened, and a figure quickly walked in. He placed his hand on Mu Xuan’s wrist and said solemnly, “This is… poison?!”
Mu Xuan was stunned. Only then did he see clearly that the person who rushed
into his room was surprisingly the beloved daughter of Marquis Mingyang, the eldest daughter, Fang Jingyi!
“Eldest… Eldest Miss?!” Mu Xuan was stunned for a moment and said weakly.
Fang Jingyi looked at Mu Xuan and suddenly realized that the servant in front of her had extraordinary looks and an outstanding temperament. He didn’t look like a servant of the residence at all. Looking at the other party’s expression, she actually wasn’t worried at all about the injuries to her internal organs. His temperament was actually so extraordinary!
If Mu Xuan could hear Fang Jingyi’s thoughts, he would probably laugh one’s head off. He was so calm naturally because he was immortal and had an undying body. Why would he be afraid?
Seeing this, Fang Jingyi only pondered for a few seconds before taking out a pill from a beautiful cloth bag. “Take it quickly!”
Seeing this, Mu Xuan couldn’t refuse. Then, Mu Xuan felt that the poison in his body had been cleaned up.
“Thank you for the pill, Miss!” Mu Xuan said.
Fang Jingyi stood up again and looked at Mu Xuan. “Your name is Fang Yan?
What’s going on? How did you get poisoned by the Five Poison Pill?!”
Mu Xuan pondered for a moment and suddenly realized that this was a great opportunity to interact with Fang Jingyi, so he decisively explained his encounter briefly. Of course, he exaggerated his image a little!
“You said… a bandit barged into the residence and used the Five Poison Pill to kidnap you to get you to buy healing medicine for him. In the end, you poisoned him and killed him?!”
“Could this person be the assassin who assassinated Lin Zhizhou?!”
After Fang Jingyi sent someone to fish out the assassin’s corpse and confirmed this, she looked at Mu Xuan differently.
Mu Xuan’s guess was right. Fang Jingyi was indeed an immortal cultivator and had even entered the Clear Void Sect of the seven major sects of the State of Yue. However, her talent was not good and she was only at the sixth level of Qi Refinement.
“This Fang Yan has a tenacious temperament and extraordinary intelligence. If he has a spirit root, perhaps I can guide him onto the path of immortality. I can also have another helper…” Fang Jingyi thought. “Moreover, even if he doesn’t have a spirit root, he’s still worth promoting!”
Fang Jingyi praised, “Fang Yan, you’ve made a great contribution to my
Marquis Mingyang’s Estate!”
“I have to reward you heavily!”
“How about this? I’ll promote you to the level of deputy manager and reward you with ten taels of silver! I’ll also assign two people to assist you!” “In addition, I’ll give you a chance to choose a cultivation technique!”
Mu Xuan’s eyes lit up, and he was naturally overjoyed. “Thank you for your reward, Miss!”
When the servants of the big shop next door heard the reward, their eyes turned red. They wished they could replace Mu Xuan.
Not long after, Marquis Mingyang also rushed to the scene. After hearing the cause and effect, he supported Fang Jingyi’s decision and praised Mu Xuan greatly.
At this point, Mu Xuan’s status in the Marquis of Bright Sun Manor had increased greatly, attracting many gazes.
However, Mu Xuan didn’t care about this. He only cared about Fang Jingyi’s last reward, cultivation technique!
The next day, Mu Xuan was led to a room in the inner residence. Inside were the martial arts secret manuals collected by the Marquis of Mingyang’s Estate over the years. Although many of them were common goods, there were also several internal arts such as the Primordial Chaos Force, the Eternal Spring Art, the Giant Armor Art, the Green Wave Qi Technique, and so on.
Mu Xuan quickly flipped through it and finally confirmed that the Etern Spring Technique, Giant Armor Technique, and Green Wave Qi Techniqu actually all basic cultivation methods. Only this Primordial Chaos Force martial arts cultivation method.
Mu Xuan didn’t have a spirit root, so he naturally chose the Primordial Chaos Force. When he cultivated the Primordial Chaos Force successfully, it would be very easy for him to plan for a spirit root.
In the eyes of a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal, this Primordial Chaos Force book had very few mistakes. It was neutral and peaceful. It was a good internal art. However, Mu Xuan still relied on his understanding of his body these two days to perfect this Primordial Chaos Force book and repair a few small loopholes. It was also more suitable for him.
With his vigorous blood essence foundation, Mu Xuan reached the first level that night and cultivated the first wisp of true qi.
However, in the next few days, Mu Xuan discovered that after his blood essence was converted into true qi, his cultivation speed slowed down greatly!
Alright, he had already confirmed that the bone structure of this body was very ordinary, only at the lower-middle level. If he didn’t cheat, it was impossible for him to cultivate to the peak of the Postnatal realm.
Fortunately, Mu Xuan was very calm. So what if it was slower? Sooner or later, he would be able to cultivate to the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Force.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed. Mu Xuan was still circling the first level, but on this day, he was brought to the Jingyi Pavilion where Fang Jingyi lived by Fang Jingyi’s maid.
“Miss, you were looking for me?” Mu Xuan faithfully played the role of a servant because he wanted to enter the sect behind Fang Jingyi.
Mu Xuan remembered that in the mortal cultivation world, almost all cultivation resources were in the hands of sects. It was very difficult for independent cultivators. It was commonly known as the cultivation world of the Mafia!
Since he could sneak into the sect, Mu Xuan naturally didn’t plan to become a bitter freelance cultivator.
Fang Jingyi nodded gently. She first encouraged Mu Xuan and told him that she thought highly of him and that he had to focus on cultivating.
This was a subordinate-controlling technique. If he accumulated small favors in the early stages, wouldn’t he be grateful when he grew up?!
Then, Mu Xuan vaguely saw through Fang Jingyi’s goal. The other party should be preparing to return to the sect.
As expected, two days later, Fang Jingyi disappeared from the Marquis of Bright Sun Manor.
Mu Xuan continued to cultivate silently. Of course, he didn’t forget his duty to help the Mingyang Marquis Manor raise horses. In fact, as a divine beast tamer, raising horses was child’s play, easy for Mu Xuan.
Under Mu Xuan’s guidance, the two lackeys learned very quickly and could already feed it alone, making Mu Xuan quite satisfied. Such lackeys were sensible!
In Marquis Mingyang’s eyes, Mu Xuan, the caretaker of horses, was very outstanding. The horses he fed were all very energetic and he praised Mu Xuan a lot.
A month later, Mu Xuan finally reached the second level of the Primordial Chaos Force. At this speed, Mu Xuan could cultivate to the ninth level of the Primordial Chaos Force, the peak of the Postliminary Realm, in 20 years!
Well, that was the realm that Doctor MO had reached in the original novel…
“As expected, I still have to cheat.” Mu Xuan sighed. He no longer had any expectations for the aptitude of his body. He was just waiting to extract the fusion talent next year to recover and extract a spirit root.
On this day, one of Mu Xuan’s lackeys came to Mu Xuan’s room and said, “Boss, I found the small mountain village you asked me to secretly inquire about.. It’s
Green Bull Town under our Jing Province!”
