Chapter 329: Chapter 298: Purple me Sky Thunder Scroll_1


    After the banquet ended, everyone went back to rest.


    A few dayster, Xu Mu followed Li Yon to the Imperial Royal Library to select martial techniques, apanied by Xu Lingyu and Qiao Qianqian.


    The three martial inheritances they were awarded went to the three of them, while the other two chose ancient treasures, and a majority of the spirit stones went to Xu Mu. As for Li Yon, she received rewards from the royal family,ting a haul no lesser than the others.


    As they journeyed, Qiao Qianqian did not speak to Xu Mu due to Li Yon’s presence, but from time to time, she would give him a resentful nce.


    This behavior somewhat made Xu Mu’s skin crawl.


    What happens at home stays at home, he and Qiao Qianqian had barelymunicated with each other, and Xu Mu didn’t believe she was attracted to him.


    Unnecessary solicitude often hints at sinister ulterior motives!


    There must be something wrong with this woman, and it would be wise to exercise caution in future interactions!


    Xu Mu warned himself silently.


    Li Yon calmly rode in a pnquin, seemingly paying no attention to the situation.<div>


    Soon, the group arrived at their destination. After a series of procedures and checks, they finally entered the interior of the Imperial Royal Library.


    “Take your time choosing,e to me if you have any questions!”


    Li Yon had her own martial techniques to choose from, so she was not nning to apany them.


    They each went their separate ways, heading to their areas of interest.


    Qiao Qianqian and Xu Lingyu went straight to the area with Qi Cultivation Techniques, while Xu Mu headed to the Body Refining Techniques area.


    The library was massive, with a number of martial techniques and hidden skills recorded, many times denser than that of Fairy Moon Pce. Looking around, it felt as vast as an ocean of smoke.


    “Knowledge always expands, but understanding has limits!”


    Xu Mu sighed inwardly.


    Even though Body Refining Techniques were not niche, they were not mainstream either. Xu Mu thought there would only be a few dozen, but to his surprise, there were hundreds of them.


    All Xu Mu could say is, worthy of a superpower that stood tall for tens of thousands of years!


    The Old Ancestor of Tongyou must have hurried to leave after saving people out of fear of the power of the royal family.


    Xu Mu suspected that even without a Divinity Transformation Old Ancestor, the Da Yuan Royal Family could still suppress individuals of Divinity Transformation.


    “Fortunately, I have the ck YuanYing. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be so easy to pick a suitable technique!”


    With so many techniques to choose from, it was impossible for him to try each one. Just by reading the description, it was challenging to select a suitable method.


    However, the ck YuanYing, who was of royal origin, knew the library like the back of his hand. With his keen eye and extensive knowledge, he was ideally suited to make a selection.


    “In my view, given your current situation, you should strive to increase your cultivation level as quickly as possible and then head to the Extreme North to find the Chi of Origin. It’s aplete waste of time to practice Body Refining Techniques!”


    The ck YuanYing struggled to understand Xu Mu’s decision to cultivate the Body Refining Techniques.


    Body Refining Techniques were notoriously difficult to master and demanded a great deal of vitality. In other words, they were better suited to young cultivators. Given Xu Mu’s current situation, it seemed like a waste of time.


    If he forced himself to cultivate it, he would not only end up with nothing but also risk potential harm.<div>


    “You just help me pick, why the unnecessary chatter!”


    Naturally, Xu Mu did not disclose to the ck YuanYing about the system he possessed that allowed him to quickly master any Body Refining Technique as long as he had enough Energy Pills.


    He wasn’t worried about the ck YuanYing finding out, as he could control the God Refining Tripod so effortlessly that the ck YuanYing couldn’t sense anything about the outside world.


    “If you want to do something this stupid, it’s up to you. Just don’t dy finding Chi of Origin! It’s been hundreds of years since Ist noticed it, and no one knows what changed there. You should move quickly!”<div>


    The ck YuanYing seemed even more anxious than Xu Mu.


    “Rest assured! Hurry up and choose a martial method!”


    “Considering your situation, the Purple me Sky-Thunder Scroll should be the most suitable method for you. Look for it!” said the ck YuanYing.


    Beforeing, Xu Mu had already introduced him to the body refining techniques he had practiced.


    Xu Mu quickly found the jade script that introduced the Purple me Sky-Thunder Scroll on the bookshelf. Its contents were quite detailed.


    The Purple me Sky-Thunder Scroll, also known as the Purple me Sky-Thunder Secret, was obtained from an ancient cultivator’s cave dwelling five thousand years ago. Its origin and age are unknown. This method is divided into three volumes: upper, middle and lower. The upper volume is a tier nine martial method, the middle volume is tier ten, and the lower volume is tier eleven. Thebination of the three volumes isparable to a tier twelve martial method. After mastering it, one can condense Purple me Sky-Thunder, possessing both thunder and fire attributes, with astonishing destructive power. Over the past five thousand years, 322 people have practiced this method…


    “Not only does it have dual attributes of thunder and fire, but it alsoes in three volumes. It can allow me to practice all the way to the Nascent Soul Stage. It’s indeed the most suitable method! It’s just a pity that I can only choose one from the upper volume.”


    Xu Mu expressed slight regret. However, considering that the Nascent Soul Stage may not be achieved until forever, he didn’t overthink it.


    After reading the introduction of the Purple me Sky-Thunder Scroll, Xu Mu didn’t immediately choose to trade it. He started looking at other martial methods. Since he still had time, it was a good idea to broaden his horizons.


    When it was almost time, Xu Mu took the Purple me Sky-Thunder Scroll and met up with the others.


    “A Body Refining Technique?”


    Seeing the martial method chosen by Xu Mu, everyone couldn’t help but be a bit surprised.


    “Friend Xu, don’t you want to consider it again?” Li Yon asked, frowning.<div>


    This opportunity was very rare. The chosen martial method can be taught to family members. Even if Xu Mu doesn’t pick an expensive Qi Cultivation martial method, he should choose a powerful secret skill to enhance the strength of his family.


    Body Refining Techniques are extremely difficult to master. It would be a bit of a waste to use such an opportunity on them.


    “No need! I have specific requirements!”


    “Well then!”


    Li Yon didn’t say much. It’s good to give a reminder, but saying too much might be annoying.


    After collecting their chosen martial method scripts, they returned to the Princess Mansion.


    When they returned, Xu Mu immediately decided to enter seclusion.


    A monthter, in the cultivation room, Xu Mu woke up from his seclusion. His whole body was burning with purple mes. Purple thunder constantly shed within the mes. His whole body gave off a sense of explosive and wild energy, as if a slight move could break the sky and split the earth.


    “The tier nine martial method truly is notparable with the tier seven one. The consumption is just too great!” Xu Mu eximed.


    It took him a month, during which he consumed all the energy pills he had. Combined with the foundation from his previous Body Refining Techniques, he just managed to master the Purple me Sky-Thunder Scroll to the Master Level, not even reaching Grandmaster Level. This showed the difficulty of practicing this martial method.


    However, a huge investment brought an equally huge return. Although he only reached the Master Level in the Purple me Sky-Thunder Scroll, it alone gave him a strength that wouldn’t lose to an average Perfect Golden Pill stage cultivator.


    If he broke through to the Grandmaster level, even if he is not invincible at the Golden Pill stage, there would hardly be any opponents who could match him.


    If he broke through to the Transcendent level, he would likely have the power of a Nascent Soul stage cultivator.<div>


    If he added the Sky-Splitting Halberd, a true treasure, he could potentially defeat or even kill a Nascent Soul stage master who had just advanced.


    “But to reach the Transcendent level, the quantity of Energy Pills required will definitely be massive!”


    Thinking of the pills, Xu Mu couldn’t help but feel a headache.


    “It seems I’ll need to ask Qiao Qianqian for help!”


    Qiao Qianqian knew many spirit nt masters who could help him buy cheap medicinal ingredients. This would save him a lot of resources.


    Upon leaving seclusion, Xu Mu first paid a visit to Li Yon, then went to Qiao Qianqian’s residence.


    “Friend Xu, this is the first time you’ve taken the initiative! Hehe!”
