After Xu Mu finished speaking, all around was quiet, apart from the lapping of waves and the ocean breeze, there was no other sound.
“Sigh!”
Xu Mu sighed. His hand squeezed in the spell gesture, and a green wind blade emerged in front of his eyes, shooting towards the sea surface.
Buzz!
The original calm sea surface immediately flashed with spiritual light, blocking the wind blade.
Several people’s shadows also appeared as a result.
“Didn’t expect you to discover us, you do have some skills!” There were five people in total, all at the Qi Cultivation Late Stage. Once they realized they had been discovered, they immediately surrounded Xu Mu.
The one who spoke was a woman, dressed in black, with an arrogant expression.
“No skills, no hustle!” Xu Mu chuckled.
Seeing Xu Mu without any fear and no sign of escaping, the woman in black frowned.
However, with the current situation, there was no chance of letting go. “Which gang do you belong to? Why are you coming to our Iron Corpse Gang?” The woman asked coldly.
“Do you think I will answer that?”
Xu Mu was still grinning, causing annoyance to the lady.
“If not, I’d like to see how tough your mouth can be! Attack!”
The woman in black huffed, hit her storage belt, and several dark lights shot out towards Xu Mu at high speed.
“Tier three flying needles magic artifact, it’s quite interesting!
Xu Mu reached out and took hold of the black light. It fell into his palm and turned into several black flying needles the length of a finger.
“How on earth…?”
Xu Mu’s ability to seize the magic artifact caused the pupils of the five to convulse.
“Run!”
Almost without hesitation, spiritual light flashed around the five people, they immediately wanted to break away.
Seeing the unfavorable situation, run immediately!
Such was the law of survival in the Outer Sea.
“It was not easy for me to lure you this far, how can I let you escape?
Xu Mu flicked his wrist, a flurry of lightning appeared, and the black flying needles he held in his hand shot out at lightning speed.
Quick!
The flying needles instantly pierced through the protective spiritual light, passing through their skulls.
“Huh?”
What surprised Xu Mu was the appearance of a layer of bloodlight on the woman in black, which surprisingly blocked it.
It should be noted, with his current body cultivation technique, even someone at the Foundation Establishment Late Stage could be killed.
Although it was just a casual throw, it was not something a cultivator from the Qi Cultivation Late Stage could withstand.
“It seems I have caught a big fish!”
Xu Mu’s mouth curved in a slight smile.
The woman in black, whose magical action was interrupted, looked terrified as she quickly pulled out a storage pouch. A cloud of black energy flew out, turning into a corpse with bloody eyes and hook-like fingers.
The refined corpse let out a roar and charged at Xu Mu without hesitation. At the same time, the woman took out a high-tier talisman and attempted to escape once more.
“You even have a corpse refined at the Foundation Establishment Stage, I cannot let you go!”
Xu Mu’s body was encompassed by lightning, and he swatted the approaching corpse from the Foundation Establishment Stage away with one palm.
To destroy the corpse from the Foundation Establishment Stage would be such a shame.
He then rushed after the woman in black who was trying to escape. His body was raging with lightning, and he smashed half of her body with a fist.
Roar!
The refined corpse attempted to charge again, but Xu Mu grabbed its head and completely refined it with the Controlling Corpse Skill in a few breaths, manipulating it as though it was his arm.
Next came the use of Blue Bird to extract the souls of several people and read their memory.
Unexpectedly, there was quite a surprise.
This woman in black turned out to be the granddaughter and personal… of the
Iron Corpse Gang Grand Elder.
Really not a good fellow, this old man!
Xu Mu couldn’t help but curse.
But on the territory of the Demonic Dao, such things were quite common. Some families, in order to ensure the purity of their bloodlines and cultivate excellent descendants, would not intermarry with outsiders.
As for what happened to malformed children? Naturally, they were killed and used as materials.
Magic Artifacts crafted from the same bloodline were more powerful.
From this woman, he obtained a lot of useful information.
The Iron Corpse Gang really was capturing a large number of low-tier cultivators to extract their essence and blood. However, their goal wasn’t for the Iron Corpse Superior’s breakthrough to Golden Pill Stage.
It was for corpse refinement!
The Iron Corpse Superior had found a corpse of exceptional quality somewhere and was engrossed in refining it.
“Merely for refining a corpse at the Qi Cultivation Late Stage, they shouldn’t need to use so much essence blood!”
“This corpse seems extraordinary. I should go take a look!
After tale all the valuable things from the bodies, Xu Mu changed his appearance and returned to Floating Corpse Island.
With the memories he had obtained, Xu Mu effortlessly infiltrated the Iron Corpse Sect’s base.
His concealing method couldn’t fool a Golden Pill cultivator, but deceiving Foundation Establishment cultivators was not a problem.
Thus, it wasn’t much effort for him to find the location where the Iron Corpse Superior was refining the corpses.
But entering it wasn’t going to be easy.
The cultivation locations were highly secured, even from close acquaintances.
Xu Mu wasn’t reckless and patiently waited for the perfect moment.
After keeping watch for three to four days, he finally found an opportunity. As essence blood had to be supplied regularly, a group of elite disciples from the Iron Corpse Gang was sent in at a fixed time every day.
But blending in with the group wasn’t easy.
The checks while entering and exiting were strict. Even if he could mask his aura and change his appearance, it wouldn’t work.
But Xu Mu didn’t plan to blend into the group. Having a system, he had various ways to infiltrate.
He opened the system and began to search, quickly finding a suitable skill.
[Tier Six – Beginner Invisibility Technique; 41/3200]
Xu Mu had been learning high-tier skills over the years. Although, he only grasped the basics.
He didn’t need them, and second, they were too hard!
To practice a tier-six skill to proficiency, it would take several, even tens of years.
Xu Mu didn’t even have enough time to improve his cultivation. Where would he find the time to practice?
It was impossible to enhance it through Luck Value!
He had too many skills that needed upgrading. These skills, which weren’t very powerful and didn’t offer significant returns for the effort invested, weren’t a priority.
The reason he learned them was precisely to handle situations like this. Xu Mu didn’t increase it too much, only boosting up the Invisibility Technique to Perfection, and combining it with a tier-one Invisibility Technique.
In contrast to the tier-one Invisibility Technique, the tier-six Invisibility Technique could not only conceal form but also hide from divine intent. A Perfect tier-six Invisibility Technique could just deceive the divine intent exploration of Qi Cultivation Late Stage.
Xu Mu then waited for the opportunity and followed the group delivering essence blood to easily infiltrate the Iron Corpse Superior’s cultivation location.
As the essence blood was continually sent in, Xu Mu followed closely, leading him to an underground palace.
“Gang Leader! Today’s share of essence blood has been delivered!” A disciple from the Iron Corpse Gang kneeled at the entrance of the underground palace. He respectfully placed several jugs of essence blood at the entrance, reported, and then retreated, shutting the formation behind him.
Xu Mu was trapped inside.
The time of Invisibility Technique was limited; he could be revealed at any moment.
But Xu Mu didn’t show any signs of panic on his face. He squatted in the comer and patiently waited.
After a while, with a creak, the heavy stone door slowly opened, and a thin figure, engulfed in a black robe, walked out. He picked up the jugs from the floor professionally and was about to return.
Xu Mu’s eyes flashed, knowing this might be the only chance. The Thunder Slash Sword instantly appeared in his hand and burst forth, turning into a golden thunderbolt, slashing down.
Squish!
The person in the black robe didn’t have time to react and was cut in half by the sword light, revealing the withered body inside.
“Who is there!!!”
A roar echoed from inside the stone door..
