Chapter 144: Ten Years from Now, Come with Me to Zhongzhou

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“When Nascent Soul cultivators condense their jade bones, they can increase the speed and compatibility of the jade bones.”

This Jade Bright Bone Pill was actually a pill used by Heaven Realm cultivators.

Fifth-grade pills were rare in the Western Frontier.

Han Muye unfolded the book and fixed his gaze on it.

“Hum—”

Images tumbled through his mind.

After screening the spiritual herbs, the spiritual fire burned the furnace, and the spiritual herbs were thrown into the furnace. The spiritual herbs fused, and the medicinal strength gathered. The pills were out.

Pills flew everywhere.

A large hand swept over, and all the pills were held in his palm.

He had comprehended the refining method of the Jade Bright Bone Pill.

He had comprehended the formula for the Jade Bright Bone Pill.

Comprehend the Cloud Dew Hand Pill Gathering Technique.

The method of gathering pills.

......

There was no established technique for gathering pills in the Western Frontier.

This was because there were very few alchemists in the Western Frontier who could refine a fifth-grade pill.

Only high-grade pills like fifth-grade and immortal-grade pills needed to be restrained to prevent their spirituality from escaping from the pill furnace.

The Cloud Dew Hand was a type of spiritual energy usage pill. It could be used to gather pills or capture people.

When he closed the book, he looked tired.

Forcefully memorizing so many pill formulas and refinement techniques had greatly exhausted his soul.

Han Muye had spent a lot of time comprehending this fifth-grade pill.

At this moment, there was only a trace of soul sword qi left in his divine treasure.

Alright, this trip was a huge gain.

Han Muye stood up and stretched with a smile.

There were three precious pill formulas for seventh-grade pills.

There were 17 sixth-grade pill formulas.

And one fifth-grade pill formula.

Other people could memorize one pill formula at the Little Alchemy Pavilion, but Han Muye remembered 21.

Jiang Ming had helped him choose some precious pill formulas.

They were enough.

Jiang Ming nodded and put away the book in his hand.

By the time the two of them walked down from the Little Alchemy Pavilion, the guests had already dispersed.

Only Mu Wan and another young man were left in the pavilion.

It was the eldest son of the Mu family, Mu Tanzhi.

“Senior Brother Han, the patriarch invites you to Mujin Garden.”

Mu Wan looked at Han Muye and spoke softly.

Han Muye nodded and followed her.

Mu Tanzhi cupped his hands at Jiang Ming and said with a smile, “Senior Jiang Ming, my father invites you to have tea. I wonder if you can come?”

Mu Tanzhi’s father was the first of the Mu family’s second generation, Mu Lingye who was hosting the celebration today.

“Hehe, even if there’s no wine, tea is fine.” Jiang Ming glanced at Han Muye and Mu Wan, who were walking away, and laughed before following Mu Tanzhi to the other side.

Mu Wan, who was traveling with Han Muye, lowered her head and led the way.

Along the way, when they encountered the juniors of the Mu family, they looked at the two of them with complicated expressions.

If they met the two of them yesterday, they would not give them a second look.

Today, the two of them were out of their league!

Ahead, the lush garden was in sight.

“Senior Brother Han, you refined all the supreme-grade Cloud Qi Pills recently, right?”

Mu Wan, who had been silent all this while, suddenly spoke.

Han Muye smiled wryly and said softly, “Yes.”

There was no need for him to hide it from Mu Wan.

Hearing the answer she wanted, Mu Wan turned to look at Han Muye and chuckled. “Senior Brother Han, your comprehension is really good.”

Just as Han Muye was about to say that he was not only good at comprehension, Mu Wan said, “I have to practice alchemy well in the future and try not to be left behind by Senior Brother Han.”

After saying that, she took a deep breath and looked at Han Muye. “Senior Brother Han, when my alchemy cultivation is enough and I find a way to solve your lifespan issue, I’ll look for you.”

Then she turned and walked away.

Look for me.

Looking at Mu Wan’s back, Han Muye smiled and said softly, “Okay, I’ll wait for you.”

Does this count as a promise of love?

He thought that the world of cultivators should be devoid of emotions.

But he was actually happy about a small promise.

My temperament is bad…

Shouldn’t one take advantage of opportune moments??he wondered.

After Mu Wan left, Han Muye stopped smiling, turned around, and walked into Mujin Garden.

There were spiritual herbs everywhere in the lush garden.

When they arrived at the hall, Han Muye saw the Mu Family’s Patriarch sitting upright.

Beside him, Patriarch Tao Ran looked indifferent.

“How’s the harvest?”

Patriarch Tao Ran chuckled and asked Han Muye.

How could he ask so bluntly in front of the Mu family’s patriarch?

Han Muye nodded, his expression unchanged. “It’s alright.”

Hearing his words, Patriarch Tao Ran grinned again.

The Mu family’s patriarch, who was sitting beside him, shook his head and said in a low voice, “Fellow Daoist Tao Ran, the situation is critical. Let’s see how we deal with it first…”

What does that mean?

Han Muye was slightly taken aback.

“Kid, do you think I attacked on purpose today?” Patriarch Tao Ran suddenly said when he saw Han Muye’s expression.

“Fellow Daoist Chunhui asked me to help.”

Mu Chunhui asked Patriarch Tao Ran to take action?

What does that mean?

Today, Patriarch Tao Ran seemed to have protected Mushen City with the power of the Sword Dao, but in fact, he had stolen the power of the Mu family’s patriarch and damaged the reputation of the Holy Land of Mushen City.

If Patriarch Tao Ran had sincerely helped Mushen City today, he would have stopped Yang Dingshan immediately.

This was the prestige of the Holy Land of Alchemy in Mushen City.

“Do you know that Fellow Daoist Chunhui has a confidante?

Over at the Demon Race in the Southern Wilderness, Fairy Peony.”

Patriarch Tao Ran grinned.

“I don’t think so. We’re just good friends with the same goal…” Mu Chunhui’s explanation was more like a cover-up.

With this explanation, Han Muye became even more interested in listening.

Back then, the Mu Family’s Patriarch defeated the Demon Race’s Fairy Peony with his alchemy. Fairy Peony gave him her natal flower branch.

With this flower branch, the two of them could communicate with each other over countless years.

After going back and forth for hundreds of years, it was really nothing.

It didn’t seem right to say that there was nothing.

“A few days ago, there was some vague news from Fairy Peony. It seems that there has been a change in the Southern Wilderness.”

Mu Chunhui’s expression was grave.

“After that, there was no news from there.”

Something had changed in the Southern Wasteland.

After the news was cut off, the Southern Wilderness army attacked the Western Frontier.

“What kind of change was there?”

Han Muye looked up at Patriarch Tao Ran.

“I don’t know either.” Patriarch Tao Ran shook his head.

“Fellow Daoist Chunhui summoned me here to look after Mushen City for him.”

Look after?

Han Muye was shocked and quickly looked at Patriarch Mu.

“I’ve been friends with Fairy Peony for so many years. If something happens to her, of course I have to go and take a look.

I’m preparing to head to the Southern Wilderness.”

Mu Chunhui looked calm.

Because the Mu Family’s Patriarch was leaving, there was no one guarding Mushen City.

So he came looking for Patriarch Tao Ran.

“When I left the Nine Mystic Sword Sect back then, not only was my sword broken, but I was also severely injured.

It was Daoist Brother Chunhui who saved me.

I naturally have to repay this favor.”

Patriarch Tao Ran’s expression became more solemn, no longer as casual and relaxed as before.

Han Muye was stunned and didn’t speak for a moment.

If these two patriarchs did not say it themselves, how could he know so many secrets?

“Han Muye, your talent in alchemy is rare. Are you willing to stay in Mushen City?” The Mu family’s patriarch suddenly looked at Han Muye and asked in a deep voice.

Stay in Mushen?

Why stay here?

Han Muye knew that as long as he agreed to stay in Mushen City, the Mu Family’s Patriarch would probably give him the Mu Family’s alchemy inheritance.

At least he would give himself a promise.

These cultivators liked to give opportunities.

In their opinion, the juniors worth nurturing today would definitely be rewarded in the future.

In the cultivation world, people believed in karma.

He would reap what he sowed tomorrow.

Patriarch Tao Ran also looked at Han Muye.

“I heard from Fellow Daoist Tao Ran that you’re a sword caretaker of the Sword Pavilion. You’ve been affected by the sword qi and your lifespan has been damaged.

If you stay in Mushen City, you won’t need to cultivate that sword cultivation technique, and your lifespan won’t be reduced.

I’ll help you refine the lifespan-extending pill so that you can cultivate properly.”

The Mu Family’s Patriarch’s words were seductive.

Cultivation was for longevity.

Staying in Mushen City would give him a better chance of longevity than staying in the Sword Pavilion.

Han Muye chuckled.

If he didn’t cultivate the Mystic Sun Technique, if he didn’t have the sword intent lingering in his sea of energy, if he didn’t see the power of the soul sword, if he didn’t have the Ancestral Return of 10,000 Swords of his master.

There was no if.

Karma had long been decided.

“Thank you for your kindness, Senior Mu. I think I’m still suitable for sword cultivation.”

Han Muye cupped his hands and spoke calmly.

Patriarch Tao Ran chuckled.

The Mu family’s patriarch did not persuade him anymore. He nodded and said, “Then come here tomorrow. I’ll refine a furnace of lifespan-extending pills for you.”

Han Muye bowed and left the hall.

Only Patriarch Tao Ran and Patriarch Mu were left in the hall.

“This kid has a good heart. Otherwise, Gao Changgong wouldn’t have valued him so much.” Patriarch Tao Ran smiled.

He was very satisfied that Han Muye could withstand the temptation of the Mu Family’s Patriarch.

“The number of alchemy cultivators in the Western Frontier who can produce nine immortal-grade pills in a cauldron can be counted on one hand.” The Mu family’s patriarch looked ahead and muttered, “This alchemy talent is from ancient times…”

He paused and his eyes lit up. He turned to look at Patriarch Tao Ran. “Brother Tao Ran, if he can go to the Central Continent, his future will be limitless.”

Hearing his words, Patriarch Tao Ran shook his head and said, “I can’t interfere in this matter. It depends on luck.”

The next day, Han Muye went to Mujin Garden to watch the Mu Family’s patriarch refine a furnace of lifespan-extending pills that could increase one’s lifespan by five years.

The Mu family’s patriarch’s alchemy methods were indeed profound. Not only did he produce two pills in a furnace, but two of them were also top-grade.

Having comprehended the refinement method of the lifespan-extending pills, Han Muye knew that it was already extremely rare to produce pills of such fine quality.

The medicinal power of a top-grade five-year lifespan-extending pill doubled.

“Kid, this is a letter.” When he handed the lifespan-extending pills to Han Muye, the Mu family’s patriarch handed him a green wooden knag.

“If I can return, come with me to the Central State in 10 years.

If I can’t come back, take that girl, Mu Wan, with you 10 years from now.”

The Mu family’s patriarch looked at Han Muye and said in a low voice, “The alchemy in the Western Frontier has withered. If you want to make progress in alchemy, you can only go to the Central Continent.”

Han Muye’s gaze fell on the wooden spur in his hand.

This was a wooden branch cut from an unknown tree. It was as warm as jade and there were traces of spiritual light flashing on it.

Going to the Central Continent in 10 years?

Ten years was still a long time.

There was enough time to prepare for what would happen in 10 years.

The Mu family’s patriarch said that the alchemy in the Western Frontier had withered, and only the alchemy in the Central Continent was prosperous. It should be true.

It did not matter if she cultivated the Dao of alchemy or not. Mu Wan was very obsessed with the Dao of alchemy. If there was a chance to study the Dao of alchemy in the Central Continent, she would not let it go.

Han Muye nodded and said, “Then I wish you a safe return, Patriarch.”

Even someone like the Mu family’s patriarch would probably die in the Southern Wilderness.

After putting away the wooden knag and walking out of the Mujin Garden, Han Muye saw Jiang Ming standing at the door.

When he saw Han Muye, Jiang Ming’s first words were, “The Mu family recruited me.”

The second was, “I refused.”

Han Muye smiled.

“I think Young Master will need someone to help him refine pills.”

Jiang Ming grinned and chuckled. “I see that your sword intent is condensed. You don’t look like someone who can refine pills.

I happen to be good at alchemy.”

Hearing his words, Han Muye spread his hands and said, “I’m just a Sword Pavilion Sword Caretaker. I’m afraid I can’t afford to raise you.”

When he heard Han Muye say that he was a Sword Caretaker, Jiang Ming’s eyes lit up. “Is it true that the legendary Sword Pavilion is filled with sword energy and brings one close to death?”

“I just want to have food on the table.

It would be even better if I could have some wine.”
