Longevity Begins With The Birth Of A Daughter At An Old Age

Chapter 142: The Earth-Cracking Whale

"Who?"

Xu Mu was suddenly startled and quickly pulled out his stick, cautiously scanning his surroundings.

"You dare to defile my body and still have the audacity to ask who I am? Kneel down and take your own life, or I will send your soul into the flames of the netherworld, burning for eternity!"

The voice resounded in Xu Mu's mind once again, filled with anger that could almost turn Xu Mu into ashes.

Defile my body?

Xu Mu lowered his head and looked at the lifeless body lying on the ground beside him.

With long disheveled hair, like black waves spread over half a blanket, eyes closed slightly, no expression on the face, one hand spread out, and the other gently placed on the chest.

The clothes Xu Mu was wearing were newly changed, woven from exquisite silk and gold thread, with runes engraved on the cuffs, emitting a faint mysterious radiance. A thin gold belt was tied around the waist, revealing a slender figure.

The messy sleeping posture revealed an unparalleled sense of broken beauty.

Her closed eyes seemed to be waiting for something, making people unable to help but want to get closer to her and explore her secrets.

"Lu Jingkong? You are Lu Jingkong!!!"

To be honest, Xu Mu's legs felt a bit weak.

The former number one loose cultivator in the outer sea, a Nascent Soul stage powerhouse!

Anyone who heard this would have weak legs.

In the eyes of the other party, he could indeed only be considered an ant.

"You know it's me and you still don't kneel down!"

Lu Jingkong scolded with a commanding tone, slightly suppressing the anger in his heart.

Xu Mu stood still in place.

After a moment of shock, he quickly regained his composure and sensed something unusual in the other party's words.

Based on what he had just done, no matter who it was, it would have been an action worthy of being slapped to death.

There was simply no need for the other party to talk nonsense.

This kind of furious feeling was more like an inability to suppress the anger, but also a powerless reaction.

Powerless?

A bright light suddenly flashed in Xu Mu's eyes.

He quickly sorted out his thoughts.

If the other party really had the ability to do something to him, then it would have been impossible for Iron Corpse to take his body away back then.

Moreover, he had been in this space for several months, and the other party had remained silent until now, but chose to speak up at this moment. It was too coincidental.

Connecting all the clues, he came to a conclusion.

Apart from telepathy, the other party had no way to harm him, otherwise, there would be no reason for the outburst of impotent rage.

But he still needed to test it first.

"Younger generation Yinmu pays respects to Senior Lu! I wonder where Senior is now, could you come out and meet me?"

No matter what the other party's current situation was, for the sake of his own safety, he definitely couldn't use his real name.

"I am right here in this small space. If you want to see me, you are not qualified enough!"

Lu Jingkong snorted coldly, his tone full of disdain.

"Kneel down immediately and apologize, or I will destroy your divine soul and prevent you from reincarnating forever!"

Let me never be reborn, bah!

Xu Mu chuckled inwardly but didn't show it on his face.

"Although I have low cultivation, I am a person with integrity. I will kneel to the heavens, kneel to the earth, kneel to my parents, but I will never kneel to anyone else."

Xu Mu spoke with righteous words, revealing a sense of heroism.

"..."

Lu Jingkong fell silent for a moment, unsure if she believed Xu Mu's nonsense or if she realized he was playing her.

"I admire people with integrity the most. Because of your integrity, I can give you a chance to redeem yourself through your achievements."

"I won't hide it from you, I am temporarily trapped in a certain place in this small space. If you are willing to help me escape, not only will I spare your life, but I will also become your Dao companion and assist you in your cultivation, sharing the bliss of immortality with you."

"If you refuse, with my cultivation, once I am free, even if you escape to the ends of the earth, you won't be able to escape death."

Lu Jingkong's words were a combination of grace and power.

These words might work on ordinary cultivators, but for Xu Mu, they were simply a joke.

I have offended many people, who do you think you are?

The ends of the earth?

As long as I pass through the spatial rift, even if you are in the Soul Formation stage, you can't do anything to me.

So Xu Mu didn't take Lu Jingkong's threat seriously at all.

Instead, he was considering how to benefit from her.

A Nascent Soul expert who is trapped can bring tremendous benefits if handled properly.

"It is an honor for me to serve the senior. Please tell me the method to escape, and I will take action immediately!"

Xu Mu appeared grateful and moved.

"I can tell you the method, but you have to swear first."

Lu Jingkong had lived for thousands of years and was not a fool. She couldn't be easily fooled.

"I will do as I say! Senior, please rest assured! As for swearing, I think we can skip that!" Xu Mu said confidently.

"..."

Even if Lu Jingkong was foolish, she realized that Xu Mu was playing her.

But she didn't get angry. Apparently, she had already noticed the clues.

"Kid, are you really not afraid of death? Do you think that without your help, I won't be able to escape?"

"My patience is limited. I will give you one last chance. If you refuse, once I am free, I will make you regret coming into this world!"

Lu Jingkong's words were cold and full of threats.

"Oh? Make me regret coming into this world? Hahaha!"

Xu Mu couldn't help but laugh and stopped pretending.

"I am not afraid of threats! I will also give you a chance. I will ask you a question, and you will answer it. If you dare not answer, I will make you regret coming into this world!"

"..."

Xu Mu believed that if Lu Jingkong were in front of him, her teeth would have been ground to pieces in anger.

"Kid, I remember you! Just wait for me to get out and see how I deal with you!"

Lu Jingkong's words were extremely cold.

"It seems you are unwilling to agree." Xu Mu chuckled lightly.

"Hmph! I won't agree to your request. What can you do to me? Do you think you can enter the formation and kill me? I would welcome that very much!"

Lu Jingkong's tone was disdainful.

She was trapped in the formation space and was powerless against those outside. Similarly, anyone outside who wanted to deal with her was just wishful thinking.

She actually hoped the other party would come in. Maybe she could have more toys to torture.

"Enter? No need! I just need to do this--"

Xu Mu stepped on the tool corpse on the ground, directly pressing it onto the Nascent Soul, showing no mercy.

"You ant! Bastard! Shameless scum! Remove your foot immediately!"

In a small space, only Lu Jingkong's Nascent Soul remained, and she was so angry that she almost exploded.

"If you want me to remove my foot, you have to swear to answer all my questions."

"Dream on! Just wait for me to get out, I'll tear you into pieces!"

Lu Jingkong was about to explode with anger. How could she agree to that?

However, she had already thought of countless ways to torture the other party in her mind. She wasn't afraid of torturing the little beast until it wished for death. She even wrote the three characters of her name, Lu Jingkong, backwards in her mind.

"Tear me into pieces? Hehe!"

Xu Mu smiled and raised his hand to take off his robe, revealing that there was nothing inside.

Lu Jingkong was on the verge of going crazy. Anyone who saw their own body being humiliated like this would probably explode.

If her Dao heart remained firm and she still didn't relent, the hatred in her heart would only grow stronger, like a raging river.

The humiliation she suffered was simply impossible to wash away, no matter how much water from the five lakes and four seas was used.

"Huh? This seems a bit unnecessary!"

Xu Mu reached out and plucked a strand of hair.

Lu Jingkong didn't say anything, but the aura in the space she was in surged like the end of the world.

Unfortunately, Xu Mu was completely oblivious and continued to provoke her.

He took out a razor and started shaving.

"Bastard, stop immediately! Otherwise, if you make one cut, I'll make ten thousand cuts on you!!!"

"You make me so sad with your words. I'm just helping my senior clean up! I believe that after my senior experiences this refreshing feeling, they will definitely thank me!"

"I'll thank you when you ****ing stop! Stop!"

"If you want me to stop, just agree to my request."

"Dream on!"

"Then I'll just continue doing good deeds! Don't worry, I'm good at shaving!"

"..."

Lu Jingkong gritted her teeth and didn't speak. She knew that whatever she said was useless.

She just kept swearing in her heart that she would definitely tear the other party into pieces once she got out.

But soon, she couldn't hold on any longer.

Xu Mu's methods were just too despicable. He actually found a stick and inserted it into the back passage like grilling fish, hanging her up.

Finally, he took out a knife and wanted to cut her hair, giving her a tonsure.

Lu Jingkong's spirit was almost going up in smoke!

"Stop! I promise you! I promise you!"

She had lived for thousands of years, traversing the entire Outer Sea, and everyone who saw her would be filled with fear. But in the end, she was forced to submit by a Foundation Building cultivator.

"If you had said so earlier, Senior, wouldn't it have been better? Look, now everyone is hurt and angry! If you get injured, it won't be good for anyone!"

"..."

Lu Jingkong didn't say anything. She just wanted to kill the other person.

Seeing Lu Jingkong remain silent, Xu Mu didn't continue to provoke her. He took down the tools and put them away, then spoke, "Senior, please tell me all the cultivation techniques and secret arts you know!"

"It's impossible!"

Lu Jingkong directly refused.

If she were to reveal the cultivation techniques she had practiced to the other person, there was a high chance that they would find a way to counter her, and she would likely be completely controlled.

Cultivation techniques were the foundation of a cultivator, especially for someone at her level. They were of utmost importance and could not be easily revealed.

"Since that's the case, then I can only..."

As he spoke, Xu Mu was about to take action again.

"Don't waste your effort. Even if you cut it into pieces, I still won't agree."

Lu Jingkong's attitude was resolute.

"In that case, forget it."

Xu Mu stopped his actions. After all, he still needed it for his own use.

"Can you tell me why you were trapped here, Senior?"

"It's fine to tell you! I found out through my subordinates that this place was once the site of a fallen Earth-Cracking Whale. So I came to see if I could find its bones and extract its essence!"

"Earth-Cracking Whale? Could it be the legendary Earth-Cracking Whale, the strongest sea monster capable of splitting continents?"

In order to select suitable demonic beast essence, Xu Mu had specifically studied the sea monsters in the ocean, so he knew about this legendary existence.

"I didn't expect you to have some knowledge! Yes, it's that!"

"Could it be..."

Xu Mu looked around at the enormous skeleton that supported the entire space.

With such a massive size, it was extremely similar to the legendary Earth-Cracking Whale. If it were still alive, it would be like a moving island.

"This is the skeleton, right?"

"Besides the Earth-Cracking Whale, what other demonic beast could possess such a huge body?"

"Why did you want to find the essence of the Earth-Cracking Whale?"

"I have cultivated a technique that requires it."

Lu Jingkong didn't go into detail about the technique, but Xu Mu could easily guess.

The Twelve Shocking Awakening Technique!

Since Lu Jingkong hadn't died like the legends said, she must have succeeded in her cultivation.

With her cultivation level, ordinary demonic beast essence would definitely not be enough for her, which was why she had come all the way to find the Earth-Cracking Whale's skeleton.

At this moment, Xu Mu's heart couldn't help but beat faster.

The Earth-Cracking Whale was a legendary existence, surpassing the Thunder Phantom Silver Shark by an unknown number of levels.

If he could extract the essence of the Earth-Cracking Whale and then integrate it into his body, his strength would likely undergo a qualitative leap.

"Senior, have you extracted the essence?"
