Chapter 140: Life and Death Bond

[Achievement Unlocked: Life and Death Bond]!

[Life and Death Bond: Gain 20 Luck points every day!]

[Luck points: Can be used to improve skill proficiency, but cannot directly enhance cultivation!]

"..."

Is it the system that's becoming more twisted, or am I becoming more twisted, that such a thing can have an achievement?

And the choice of words...

Well, as long as I can gain achievements, why bother about the rest?

"I originally wanted to refine True Yuan Pills to break through the later stage of Foundation Building, but I didn't expect to achieve a breakthrough through this unexpected method!"

Feeling the surging spiritual power within his body, Xu Mu was extremely excited.

Under normal circumstances, even with the assistance of True Yuan Pills, it would take a considerable amount of time to cultivate to the eighth level of Foundation Building. But now, he had achieved it in one step.

Could it be that the people from the Heaven Restoration Tower are so keen on dual cultivation that their progress is too fast?

Xu Mu lowered his head and looked at the nearly perfect body inside the coffin, unable to hide his excitement.

This was undoubtedly a perfect human-shaped pill!

And it can be used an unlimited number of times!

He had just tried to enter voluntarily and activate the Yin-Yang Harmony Secret Technique. Not only could it assist in cultivation, but it could also directly absorb the spiritual energy within the other party's body for his own use.

This method of enhancing cultivation is similar to that of the cultivators from the Heaven Restoration Tower.

Originally, this body had the cultivation of the Nascent Soul stage. The speed of absorption and recovery far exceeded that of the Foundation Building stage, and there was no resistance whatsoever. It could be called the most perfect cauldron.

Of course, all of this depends on the Yin-Yang Harmony Secret Technique. Otherwise, it would be impossible to convert the Yin energy within the other party's body into Yang energy and forcibly absorb it without any harm.

In other words, only Xu Mu can use this method.

"This secret technique that I accidentally obtained is truly powerful and terrifying! Not only has it saved me several times, but it also has such wonderful uses!"

Xu Mu sighed in his heart.

He even began to consider whether he should accumulate Luck points and further enhance the Yin-Yang Harmony Secret Technique.

But then he shook his head and decided to first enhance his cultivation and break through to the Gold Core stage.

With this tool corpse, his cultivation speed would increase significantly, and breaking through to the Gold Core stage would be just around the corner.

"For now, I'll temporarily give up refining True Yuan Pills and accumulate Luck points to refine Dust Descending Pills!"

Dust Descending Pills are spiritual pills that assist in breaking through to the Gold Core stage. If he could refine a top-quality Dust Descending Pill, his speed of breakthrough and chances of success would greatly increase.

However, Dust Descending Pills are seventh-grade pills, and to reach the level of refining top-quality pills, a terrifying amount of Luck points is required.

To even begin learning a seventh-grade skill, it requires over six thousand Luck points.

To have a hundred percent chance of refining top-quality pills, one must reach the level of a grandmaster.

The amount of Luck points required is over two hundred thousand, and at the current rate of accumulating Luck points, it would take about four years.

Four years is not considered long for a cultivator in the Foundation Building stage, especially for Xu Mu, who has a lifespan of four hundred and fifty years.

He is currently only in his seventies, with over three hundred years of lifespan remaining. This long lifespan is more than enough to break through to the Gold Core stage.

For a normal cultivator to break through before the age of two hundred is already considered a genius.

As for him, he estimates that he can break through before the age of one hundred, truly a genius among geniuses.

Of course, his method is somewhat opportunistic, but who cares about that?

Everyone only looks at cultivation!

Xu Mu wrapped up the body, originally intending to put it in his storage bag, but found that it couldn't fit at all.

This body is somewhat peculiar.

So he simply used the materials on his body to make a coffin on the spot and carried it on his back.

With his current physical fitness, this weight was as light as a feather.

In order to avoid leaving any traces, Xu Mu summoned a blue sparrow to condense a purple fireball and left it in the underground palace, while he easily walked out relying on the memories of the Iron Corpse.

The defense layout of the training ground was so good that even the Iron Corpse had been dead for a day or two, and no one from the Iron Corpse Gang had noticed.

As for the identity token, the Iron Corpse would not leave it behind.

With the style of a practitioner of demonic arts, it would not be good to attack him using the identity token.

As Xu Mu walked out of the underground palace, the fireball he left behind suddenly exploded, creating a huge shockwave that leveled the entire underground palace.

The loud explosion caused chaos in the Iron Corpse Gang.

Xu Mu used invisibility technique and walked out with the coffin on his back, swaggering.

He didn't completely wipe out the Iron Corpse Gang.

Firstly, there was no need to.

People in the demonic arts were all selfish and even if they knew that he killed the Iron Corpse, no one would foolishly seek revenge.

Secondly, he still needed these people to help maintain order and balance the surrounding forces.

Unfurling his wings behind him, Xu Mu soared into the sky and quickly returned to his residence on Misty Island.

In the following days, Xu Mu stayed in the cave every day, feeling the rapid improvement of his cultivation, and was quite content.

The two women sent him messages several times before he reluctantly went to see them twice.

To keep him, the two of them even voluntarily opened the passage behind them, but it was of no use.

After going twice, he refused to go again. With Zhang Tianluo's temper, if she knew the location of his cave, she would have probably come knocking on his door long ago.

In terms of pure feelings, he was much closer to the two women, soft and sweet, with endless aftertaste.

As for himself, he was like an ice hole, just a tool corpse.

If an ordinary person entered, they would probably turn into an ice popsicle on the spot.

Only he, because of practicing fire attribute techniques and the secret technique of Yin and Yang harmony, could sustain it for a long time.

The reason he abandoned the two beauties and became obsessed with the tool corpse was not for pleasure, but because the feeling of rapidly improving his cultivation was truly irresistible.

The speed at which the tool corpse absorbed spiritual energy was more than a hundred times faster than his own. Every cultivation session was like a revelation.

Xu Mu felt that if he continued at this speed, he would probably reach the Foundation Building stage in less than a year.

Who could withstand such speed?

Because of his obsession with cultivation, he temporarily gave up on accepting Wang Yinxian.

However, as his cultivation rapidly improved, a problem that gave him a headache also emerged.

Insufficient spiritual energy!

The spiritual energy in the world flowed like rivers, and the low-lying areas were spiritual veins.

The cave where Xu Mu was located didn't even have a small spiritual vein, and the concentration of spiritual energy was already low, even with the help of the Spirit Gathering Array.

Originally, Xu Mu relied mainly on pills for cultivation, so the demand for spiritual energy from the heavens and earth was not that great, so he didn't pay much attention to it.

But the tool corpse had a huge demand for spiritual energy, and the nearby gathered spiritual energy was not enough for her to absorb in a short time.

Xu Mu could have stuffed her with pills and let her absorb and digest them before nourishing himself, but that would be redundant and the role of the tool corpse would not be fully utilized.

Besides, he didn't have any pills suitable for her to absorb.

"Perhaps I should consider moving to Black Tide Island. There are many small spiritual veins there, which can greatly increase the speed of cultivation!"

"I can also find Yang Wanshou to gather the earth's veins and further increase the density of spiritual energy."

Originally, Xu Mu despised the three major forces for using the technique of gathering veins to gather spiritual energy within a radius of thousands of miles, preventing ordinary people from stepping onto the path of cultivation.

Now, he was about to become one of those despised people.

However, he still hesitated about this decision.

Because after moving there, the two women would definitely bother him all day long, and if they discovered the tool corpse, who knows what kind of trouble would arise.

Headache!

"Right!"

Xu Mu suddenly brightened up and thought of a good place.

"The secret realm where the tool corpse was discovered, wouldn't that be more suitable!"
