Chapter 89: Electric Light Body Refining

"Xu Lang, how can you be so heartless!"

Hearing Xu Mu's words, Chi Feiyan's delicate body trembled, tears welled up in her eyes, and her exquisite face turned into a pitiful appearance.

"It was just a joke, why are you so worked up!"

Xu Mu smiled and stood up.

Chi Feiyan was still useful, there was no need to get rid of her over such a small matter.

He was just thinking about who would target him. If it was someone at the Foundation Building stage of the Liyang Sect, it would be troublesome.

"Can't I get worked up? You bad person!" Chi Feiyan wiped away her tears and pouted with a cold expression.

Xu Mu stood up and took two steps before speaking, "Find an opportunity to lure them out and let me investigate their background!"

Being targeted was something he had anticipated, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

Or perhaps, Chi Feiyan's abilities were just too weak?

"Wouldn't that be too risky?" Chi Feiyan expressed her concerns.

From Xu Mu's words, she guessed that he might take action.

"Don't worry, even if we can't win, I can still escape with you! Besides, I just want to probe their background. If they are core elders of the Liyang Sect, I can't afford to provoke them!"

Xu Mu pinched Chi Feiyan's cheek and smiled.

If they were really core elders of the Liyang Sect, he could only abandon the plan.

"That's good then!"

Seeing Xu Mu's confidence, Chi Feiyan felt slightly relieved.

"How many Grass Returning Pills do you have now?"

"About 170 bottles."

"Give them to me for now."

The consumption of the Extreme Purple Thunder Body was enormous. Just to get started, it required 1,600 points of Luck. 170 bottles of Grass Returning Pills were clearly not enough, but if he bought some Yellow Dragon Pills to go along with them, it would be sufficient.

After receiving the pills, Xu Mu prepared to leave but was stopped by Chi Feiyan.

"No matter what, it's my fault this time. Please punish me, Master!"

"..."

Xu Mu was speechless.

Do you think I don't know about your little scheme?

Since the other party didn't have ill intentions, Xu Mu decided to fulfill her request.

After Xu Mu left, Chi Feiyan, satisfied, couldn't help but smile.

...

Due to the disappearance of ghost cultivators in the past few days, the once desolate streets gradually regained their former prosperity.

Xu Mu constantly changed his appearance, shuttling through one medicine shop after another until he purchased thousands of bottles of Yellow Dragon Pills before returning home.

After informing his family, Xu Mu went up to the attic, activated the defensive formation, and took out all the Yellow Dragon Pills and Grass Returning Pills from the storage bag.

Activate the system and start adding points!

[Tianji Purple Thunder Body +10]!

[Tianji Purple Thunder Body +10]!

[Tianji Purple Thunder Body +10]!

He grabbed a valuable Yellow Dragon Pill and stuffed it into his mouth like eating candy.

...

As the Tianji Purple Thunder Body continued to improve, the air was attracted to the thunder element and began to gather inside Xu Mu's body.

Crackling!

When the proficiency of the Tianji Purple Thunder Body reached 500, a faint white electric light appeared on Xu Mu's body.

When the proficiency of the Tianji Purple Thunder Body reached 1000, thin white arcs completely surrounded his body, as if he was wrapped in a white ribbon radiating lightning.

When the proficiency of the Tianji Purple Thunder Body reached 1500, those white arcs adhered to his body's surface, constantly twisting and transforming as if they were converting into some kind of mysterious rune.

When the Tianji Purple Thunder Body reached the entry level; 1599/1600.

Xu Mu took a deep breath and swallowed ten bottles of Grass Returning Pills in one go.

[Tianji Purple Thunder Body +1]!

[Tianji Purple Thunder Body Proficiency; 0/3200]!

Boom!

Suddenly, an unprecedented intense electric light burst out from within his body.

It was as if a white thunderbolt exploded in the pitch-black night sky, instantly illuminating the entire night as bright as day.

Every meridian, every bone, every strand of flesh and blood in Xu Mu's body was transparent like crystal under the electric light.

The originally floating electric arcs on the surface of his skin also instantly solidified, like tattoos deeply imprinted into his flesh and blood.

His already pure body seemed to undergo a wonderful evolution at this moment, becoming a completely new existence.

As the electric light runes were branded into his flesh and blood, Xu Mu felt like a fat person being forcibly squeezed into a sealed jar, experiencing a sense of compression all over his body.

He stood up and exerted all his strength to break free from this restraint.

The next moment...

Boom!

The white electric light runes hidden within his flesh suddenly appeared, turning into streams of white electric light that completely covered his body.

At this moment, his mind and body seemed to break free from shackles, becoming incredibly agile and swift, while everything around him became incredibly slow.

Xu Mu took a step forward, and with a crackling sound, he instantly disappeared from his original position, like a flash of lightning, crossing a distance of ten zhang in an instant, reaching the edge of the formation.

He gently waved his arm, creating a strong gust of wind that violently shook the formation's barrier, as if it was about to shatter in the next moment.

It's worth noting that the strength of this formation is capable of withstanding attacks from ordinary Foundation Building stage cultivators. But now, it appeared fragile like a bubble in front of him.

He raised his palm, lightly clenched his five fingers, and immediately a large amount of lightning gathered, accompanied by continuous crackling sounds.

Xu Mu felt that he could control these electric lights.

He flicked his finger, and a white electric light flew out from between his fingers, instantly striking the floor made of special spiritual materials, leaving behind a black charred mark as if it had been burned by high temperatures.

This is the inherent Divine Ability of the Purple Thunder Body, called Thunder Control, which is similar to the Fire Control of the Ink Crow.

"The speed of thunder and lightning attacks far exceeds that of flames, making them almost impossible to dodge, but the attack power is slightly weaker," Xu Mu thought to himself.

His Fire Control Divine Ability had reached the Master level half a month ago, so its power naturally surpassed the recently acquired Thunder Control Divine Ability. However, the potential of the Thunder Control Divine Ability was enormous. As long as he continued to improve, there would come a day when its attack power would surpass that of the Fire Control Divine Ability.

Moreover, the power of thunder and lightning naturally restrained evil ghost cultivators. If he could further enhance it by two levels, perhaps he would be able to deal with ordinary Gold Core Ancestors. However, when it came to Gold Core ghost cultivators, it should have a miraculous effect.

"Once again, it's Thunder Control and Beast Soul. I'm definitely a nemesis for ghost cultivators!" Xu Mu couldn't help but laugh.

Originally, he wanted to display the Thunder Escape Divine Ability within the Purple Thunder Body, but unfortunately, he failed to do so. It should be because his cultivation level was not high enough. It was estimated that he would need to reach the level of mastery to succeed.

...

In the evening, Chi Feiyan, disguised and wearing a black veil, rode a flying sword and left the city.

Although there hadn't been any ghost cultivators appearing recently, there were still very few people who dared to leave the city at this time.

The guards at the city gate couldn't help but take a few more glances at her, but they didn't interfere.

Shortly after Chi Feiyan left the city, two figures at the Foundation Building stage flew out of the city, concealing their aura and hiding their tracks as they chased after Chi Feiyan.

They didn't know what method they used, but even from a distance of more than ten miles, they were still able to accurately catch up to Chi Feiyan.

They closely followed behind her, without rushing to capture or intercept her. They followed her for hundreds of miles until the sun was about to set. Finally, Chi Feiyan stopped and found herself trapped by a waterfall tens of meters high.

A young man stood at the bottom of the pool, looking up at the waterfall.

As it was nearing deep winter, the flow of the waterfall was very small, just a small stream, like a white ribbon hanging in the middle of the cliff, swaying in the wind.

"Both Fellow Daoists have followed this far. I don't know what you want to discuss. Please come out and meet me," the young man turned around and looked towards the hidden location of the two people. Chi Feiyan silently walked to the young man's side.

The young man was none other than Xu Mu, who had been waiting here for a long time.

The purpose of the two people chasing after Chi Feiyan without taking action was undoubtedly for him.

When Xu Mu discovered their tracks, they felt a hint of surprise. However, after hesitating for a moment, they walked out from their hidden positions, confident in their own strength.

One of them was wearing a dark blue robe, while the other was wearing a brownish-yellow robe. Their figures were average, and their faces were covered with black iron masks that blocked their divine senses, making it impossible to determine their specific age and personality.

The person in the yellow robe took a step forward, locking onto Xu Mu with their divine sense. Their voice, muffled by the mask, couldn't be distinguished as male or female, young or old.

"Fellow Daoist, people die for wealth, and birds die for food. We two brothers have no other requests. We only ask that Fellow Daoist share half of the profits from selling Foundation Building Pills with us."

"That's right!" The person in the green robe inserted their hands into their sleeves, staring at Xu Mu intently. Their voice, also hoarse, echoed, making it impossible to tell if they were male or female, old or young.

"You two are just talking nonsense, thinking you can take away the spiritual stones I risked my life to earn. Isn't that a joke?" Xu Mu flicked his finger and spoke calmly.

"A joke?!" The person in the yellow robe couldn't help but sneer. "Don't you see the situation clearly, fellow? We two brothers didn't immediately take action. We are here to discuss with you peacefully. That's already giving you face. If you don't know how to appreciate it, then we two brothers will have to personally take it from you. By then, it won't be just half!"

As they finished speaking, a blue light flew out from the sleeve of the person in the yellow robe, floating in front of them. The blue light quickly expanded, turning into a frost-covered spiritual sword.

The person in the green robe shook their sleeve, and a sharp green spiritual sword flew out from their sleeve as well, pointing towards Xu Mu.

The two of them no longer concealed their aura, their mid-Foundation Building cultivation pressure swept towards Xu Mu.

Two mid-Foundation Building sword cultivators dealing with a newly breakthrough initial-Foundation Building cultivator indeed had the confidence to say what they just said.

"Sword cultivators?" Xu Mu's eyes flickered, the corners of his mouth lifted, and he lightly laughed, "It seems that the two of you are not important figures in the Liyang Sect!"

The Liyang Sect is not a sect of sword cultivators, there are not many people in the sect who specialize in sword dao, and there is not a single person who has reached mid-Foundation Building.

"So what if we're not? So what if we're not?" The yellow-robed mid-Foundation Building cultivator sneered.

"If you're not, then the two of you can go die!"

Before the words fell, a white longsword emitting a cold aura appeared in Xu Mu's hand. A white electric light suddenly appeared, he took a step forward, and his figure instantly disappeared from the original spot.

"Ignorant fools!"

The yellow-robed mid-Foundation Building cultivator and the green-robed mid-Foundation Building cultivator both coldly snorted, preparing to use their sword techniques.

Suddenly, a piercing crow's cry sounded behind them.

Their brains felt as if they had been heavily struck, instantly falling into a dazed state. When they broke free from the daze, they felt as if the world was spinning. In their peripheral vision, they only saw two headless bodies standing there, stunned.

Chi Feiyan, who had already formed her hand seals, had her pupils violently shake. She quickly and silently retracted her hands.

Caw!

The ink crow flew out from the forest behind the two of them and landed on Xu Mu's shoulder.

In the next moment, four eyes simultaneously opened, and an invisible force enveloped the two bodies. Two illusory souls were forcibly extracted.

From the souls, they appeared to be two elderly men.

The two men's eyes were filled with fear as they struggled desperately, but it was all in vain. They were forcefully sucked in by the ink crow's open beak.

The ink crow turned into black light and merged into Xu Mu's body.

Xu Mu tightly closed his eyes and activated his cultivation technique to examine the fragments of memories in the two souls, wanting to determine their specific identities.

Chi Feiyan, who witnessed Xu Mu's series of actions behind him, suddenly became panicked.

"Could it be that he used the Luo Family's Deer Spirit Technique? No, it's impossible, it should just be a coincidence!"

Chi Feiyan desperately comforted herself in her heart.

After a moment, Xu Mu opened his eyes. His originally calm gaze suddenly became extremely cold.

He bent down and removed the masks on the faces of the two men, revealing two old and aged faces that looked to be at least over two hundred years old, appearing as if they were about to die.

After confirming without a doubt, he forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart, took all the valuable things from the two bodies, flicked his finger to shoot out two black fire snakes, turning the remaining bodies into ashes. Only then did he turn around and walk step by step towards Chi Feiyan.

Sensing Xu Mu's change in expression, Chi Feiyan realized that her situation was probably exposed.

"Xu Lang, listen to me, the situation... ah!"

Xu Mu didn't listen to her explanation at all. With one swift step, he arrived in front of her and backhandedly delivered a heavy slap.

Smack!

With Chi Feiyan's cultivation, she didn't have time to react at all. She was slapped by Xu Mu, causing her to spit out blood, see stars, and fly out.

"You despicable woman! How dare you deceive me!"
