Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

Xu Mu had no intention of returning for the Divine Sun Wood.

On one hand, although the Cluster Stars Sect suffered losses, they may not choose to give up, after all, the value of the Divine Sun Wood is quite high.

Their purpose of entering the Xuan Yang Secret Realm was to exchange cannon fodder for valuable items, and to get as much Xuan Yang Holy Water as possible.

The acquisition of the Xuan Yang Holy Water mainly depended on luck, which couldn’t be forced. So, their main focus was on ordinary treasures, which they wouldn’t pass up given the opportunity.

On the other hand, the Xuan Yang Secret Realm was so vast, why should he bother fighting others for it?

However, before that, it’s better to first help Feng Que remove the restrictions on his body.

With Xu Mu’s Formation proficiency, removing the restrictions on Feng Que was not difficult. After experimenting on two unfortunate ones, the remaining few, including Feng Que, all had their restrictions removed by him.

The reason for lifting the restrictions on the others was not because of his kindness, but because there was still a problem he hadn’t solved with the banned magic, so he tried a few more times. Unfortunately, he still failed in the end.

These restrictions served not only as a means of location control but also aided in cultivation, however, this function was not positive. In fact, it mainly exploited potential. This explains why Feng Que and the others were able to become fake-pill cultivators within just over a hundred years, despite lacking many resources.

When he lifted the restrictions, their bodies were again damaged, leaving little vitality.

Feng Que’s body had many dangerous restrictions, he couldn’t just leave them for later. The only one from the Cluster Stars Sect who cared about self-destruction would make it troublesome for him to prevent.

Looking at Feng Que’s graying hair, Xu Mu was speechless.

“Another one has been unresolved, then another one came, this really is a string of bad luck!”

Moreover, with their identities, he couldn’t just ignore them.

“Hopefully, there are some gains in the journey ahead!”

Xu Mu was holding the Sky-splitting Halberd, heading deeper into the Xuan Yang Secret Realm while collecting treasures.

The reason for going deeper was that only there was a chance to find the Xuan Yang Holy Water, which explains why the three forces didn’t search horizontally.

Although it’s more dangerous the deeper you go, the number of treasures will also increase.

With the Sky-splitting Halberd in hand, Xu Mu was like a fish in water, not only gaining a lot of valuable treasures but also maintaining his travel speed.

Even in areas where a Great Cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage would tiptoe around, he navigated as if he was on flat ground, quickly reaching the core area.

A whole pool of fiery red lotus flowers appeared in front of Xu Mu’s eyes.

“There are tens of thousands of Earth Heart Fire Lotuses that have reached the seventh tier!”

Seeing the scene before him, Xu Mu was somewhat numb.

Although the Earth Heart Fire Lotus is not as valuable as the Divine Sun Wood, it’s certainly not cheap.

If he could take all of these, it would be equivalent to the accumulation of thousands of years from a Nascent Soul Sect.

“With the foundations of the three major forces, it wouldn’t be difficult for them to make it here with a bit of effort. Without reason, they have left a large quantity of treasures untouched.”

Such a large area of Earth Heart Fire Lotuses are impossible for the three major forces to ignore.

“So, there’s only one possibility.”

Xu Mu cast a spell and it immediately turned into a hornet’s nest.

Although there were no zones of broken space around, there were dense miniature space cracks. Even if he tried to etherize his body, he probably wouldn’t be able to cross.

Seeing this, Xu Mu was somewhat assured.

If it were other dangers, he might have to consider whether to take the risk.

But if it’s space cracks, then it’s right up his alley.

The Sky-splitting Halberd swept away!

After casting the magic again, as expected, all space cracks disappeared without a trace.

Next, he began to clear the space cracks and collect Earth Heart Fire Lotuses.

Good thing he had the God Refining Tripod, an ideal Heavenly Spirit Treasure, otherwise, even with the ability to clear space cracks, normal people wouldn’t be able to collect these massive Earth Heart Fire Lotuses.

The Earth Heart Fire Lotus not only needs harsh conditions to grow, but after being picked, must undergo processing, and can only be stored in a special jade box.

Who would bring so many jade boxes? Even if they brought them along, there wouldn’t be any space to store them, after all, the space ring used by Nascent Soul cultivators was very limited.

Only a Heavenly Spirit Treasure like the God Refining Tripod could ignore these conditions and directly force them in, without worrying about loss of medicinal potency or wilting.

But using a Heavenly Spirit Treasure as a storage bag, perhaps only Xu Mu could do it.

After taking all of the Earth Heart Fire Lotuses, Xu Mu didn’t stay, he immediately left the area.

Soon after he left, people from the three major forces arrived sequentially.

Although they couldn’t collect them, they didn’t mind taking a few looks and used them as a landmark to confirm their position.

But when they saw the empty Lotus Pond, all three major forces were stupefied.

What happened? Was I hallucinating?

I remember there being a large piece of Earth Heart Fire Lotus here!

All the cultivators who had been there before unconsciously questioned themselves in their minds, doubting their memory.

It wasn’t until they confirmed multiple times that they had to admit the Earth Heart Fire Lotus had disappeared.

There were tens of thousands of seventh-tier Spiritual Medicines. Even some of them that reached the eighth and ninth tier were considered precious. If all these were converted into spirit stones, it would probably be as large as a mountain.

While they couldn’t take them in the past, they at least had hope!

Maybe one day those space cracks will disappear!

After all, the space cracks in this secret realm are unstable. A major shift is normal, so as long as they are not excavated by others, they will eventually fall into my hands.

Spiritual medicines and Monster Beasts, as well as cultivators, are different. The influence of space cracks on them is minimal because they do not move spontaneously. If they encounter it, they will just continue to grow in a different direction.

Even if their branches and leaves were cut off by suddenly appearing cracks, they could regrow roots and sprouts. They cared more about the surrounding Spiritual Energy. The thing that was most abundant here was Spiritual Energy, each part of which was comparable to the core area of a large Spirit Vein.

If they didn’t have to stay here for a long time, this place would have been taken over by the cultivators.

Now that this whole patch of Earth Heart Fire Lotus had been taken away, the three major forces felt as if they were being cut out piece of meat, even though they never had a taste of that meat.

“The space cracks are gone? Is it because the monster beasts ate all the Earth Heart Fire Lotuses?”

A cultivator used magic to probe, finding that all of the space cracks had disappeared, which made them suspicious.

During the hundred years reign of the Xuan Yang Secret Realm, did the space cracks shift, allowing the monster beasts to take the opportunity to eat all the Earth Heart Fire Lotuses.

A cultivator proficient in exploration techniques stepped forward to check, then shook his head.

“The air still has a rich aroma of medicinal herbs. This means that the Earth Heart Fire Lotus had just disappeared not long ago. Even a Monster Beast at the twelfth tier wouldn’t be able to eat so many Earth Heart Fire Lotuses in such a short time!”

“Monster beasts aren’t like humans. They certainly couldn’t have packed up the remaining lotuses and taken them away! Besides, according to previous records, the Monster Beasts in the secret realm don’t appear in the core areas!”

“If it’s not Monster Beasts, then could it be…”
