No hope for eternal life

Chapter 482: 5 Thunder Body Refining Completed

Before the black-clothed clone left, he obtained the Xu Tian Divine Lotus from Ji Youmu. Mu Changsheng's original intention was to let Ji Youmu find out the news about the Xu Tian Divine Lotus and then buy it himself, but Ji Youmu directly spent one million top-grade spirit stones to buy it for Mu Changsheng.

The black-clothed clone does not have a million top-grade spirit stones at the moment, so he can only keep the debt for the time being.

"I will definitely pay back these one million top-grade spirit stones within ten days." Mu Changsheng assured Ji Youmu.

"They are all small matters. There is no need to rush to pay them back." Ji Youmu said indifferently. With Mu Changsheng's current status, it is naturally impossible for him to default on his debt, so Ji Youmu was relieved.

"I wonder what the rules are for the appearance of the spiritual vein of the Tianyou Realm this time?" Mu Changsheng asked Ji Youmu. The Ji clan and the You clan have a close relationship, so they must be well aware of the inside story.

Ji Youmu really knew, and he explained immediately: "Most of the rules are still the same. The difference is that small spirit stone mines can be fought over at will, but medium and large spirit stone mines must belong to the You Clan. If anyone violates this rule, they will be severely punished once discovered. In addition to punishment, there are rewards. For example, if you discover a medium or large spirit stone mine and report it to the You Clan first, you will receive a specific reward. Secondly, there are branch refining quotas. The You Clan must take up 50% first, and the rest of the people will compete for the remaining 50%."

Mu Changsheng nodded slightly. Compared with the Ji clan, the You clan's style was a bit more overbearing, but now was a special period, and it was understandable that the You clan wanted to concentrate its power on doing big things. At least the You clan did not close the Tianyou Realm and completely prohibit outsiders from stealing treasures.

Moreover, Mu Changsheng no longer needs branch cleansing, so the reduction in cleansing quotas has no effect on him. As for the restriction on spirit stone mines, it only reduces a part of Mu Changsheng's income. He has the secret technique of treasure hunting, and even if he doesn't have spirit stone mines, he can still find other treasures. Overall, the impact on him is not that big.

Just like that, a new round of grand treasure-hunting competition began. Mu Changsheng's only two clones went out together, and with the help of the wonderful treasure-hunting technique, the Tianyou Realm was now full of treasures for him. Mu Changsheng kept using one divine incarnation after another to mark the places where treasures would be born, and waited in advance. He felt that the original huge amount of divine power was not enough.

For this reason, Mu Changsheng had to take the initiative to give up some treasures of low value and focus on treasures of higher value.

"A medium-sized spirit stone mine will appear here in less than half an hour. If you inform the You Clan then, you can also get a reward."

"This is a ninth-grade blessed land, and a treasure will surely appear here."

……

Nine days passed in a flash. These were definitely the busiest nine days in Mu Changsheng's life. Pieces of blessed land and treasures kept passing by his eyes, and Mu Changsheng was almost dazzled.

As nine days passed, the enthusiasm for the appearance of the spiritual veins in the Tianyou Realm finally subsided a little, and the frequency of treasures appearing in the world dropped to a level roughly on par with that in the Sub-Sage Realm, so Mu Changsheng could also stop temporarily.

Although it was only a short nine days, Mu Changsheng's harvest was extremely amazing. According to Mu Changsheng's estimation, if he sold the treasures he had obtained in these few days, he could get at least tens of millions of top-grade spirit stones!

Jiutian earned tens of millions of top-grade spirit stones, which is something that outsiders can never imagine, and it is also the charm of the treasure hunting secret technique.

“Senior Han Ying was born in the wrong era. If she could catch up with the revival of spiritual energy, she would have been able to break through the catastrophe of wind and thunder and achieve the ninth realm.” Mu Changsheng couldn’t help but sigh.

Now that the top-grade spirit stones are ready, Mu Changsheng doesn't plan to wait any longer. The right thing to do is to break through as soon as possible.

The black-clothed clone continued to cultivate his strength in seclusion, while the white-clothed clone found Ji Youmu, first repaid the one million top-grade spirit stones he owed, and then took out half of the treasures he had harvested, wanting to sell them to the Ji clan.

It would be too conspicuous if all the treasures worth 10 million top-grade spirit stones were sold to the Ji clan alone, so Mu Changsheng planned to sell them to the Ji clan and the You clan respectively, half to each.

However, even so, when Ji Youmu saw those treasures, his eyes widened and he said in amazement: "Brother Mu is really a man who makes a splash when he does not make a sound. It seems that he has gained a lot in the past few days."

"I was just lucky, and combined with my previous gains in the Sub-Saint Realm, I sold them all to the nobles." Mu Chang made a special explanation. Of course, he couldn't say that these were all his gains in the past nine days. Otherwise, even if it was only half, it would be too shocking and would easily arouse suspicion.

"With so many rare treasures, I wonder what price Brother Mu wants to sell them for?" Ji Youmu asked. He had no choice but to be cautious. The transaction of millions of top-grade spirit stones was a huge amount even for the Ji clan.

Mu Changsheng stretched out five fingers and said, "I'm in urgent need of top-grade spirit stones. Five million top-grade spirit stones will be enough."

According to estimates, these treasures could definitely be sold for more than five million top-grade spirit stones. Mu Changsheng didn't want to bargain, so he directly gave a very conservative price.

Ji Youmu also knew that the price Mu Changsheng offered was as fair as it could be, so he agreed without thinking: "Deal, thanks to Brother Mu for his care."

Then not long after, Mu Changsheng obtained five million top-grade spirit stones from Ji Youmu. Together with the spirit stones he had left before, he now had more than ten million top-grade spirit stones, and once again had the basic conditions to overcome the spiritual tribulation of supernatural powers.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng first used the Xutian Divine Lotus and spent half a month to completely recover from the injuries of his white-clothed clone.

Finally, the white-clothed clone continued to retreat. Mu Changsheng planned to break through the body refining realm first and then overcome the spiritual tribulation, which would make it easier to overcome the tribulation then.

With the Thunder God Banner as the core of the formation, Mu Changsheng set up an eighth-grade heavenly tribulation formation, evolving endless thunder tribulations, tempering his body in the thunder tribulations, further strengthening the Thunder God's Dao Fruit, and wanting to reach the realm of the Five Thunders Perfection.

However, this step alone is not enough. If one wants to completely break through the body refining realm to the perfect realm of the Five Thunders Secret Art, one also needs to integrate the Thunder God's Dao Fruit into the physical body. The physical body is the Dao Fruit, and the Dao Fruit is the physical body.

Even with the help of the Thunder God Banner, this process lasted for two years. During these two years, the black-clothed clone had already completed his power training, and then had been searching for treasures in the Tianyou Realm and accumulating wealth.

On this day, the white-clothed clone finally came out of seclusion and completed his body training!

Mu Changsheng tried a few moves casually and was very satisfied. He had seen the cultivators in the supernatural power realm take action. Now, except that he did not have the innate supernatural power and the Dharma image of heaven and earth of the cultivators in the supernatural power realm, his strength was exactly the same as that of the cultivators in the supernatural power realm.

After the joy of the physical breakthrough, Mu Changsheng felt nostalgic: "The rest of the way will depend on me."

Up to this point, Mu Changsheng has already mastered the secret art of the Five Thunders Body Tempering. If he wants to go further and reach the ninth level of body tempering, he can only explore it on his own, and Mu Changsheng doesn't even have anyone to learn from.

"We must take one step at a time. Let's break through to the realm of supernatural powers first." Mu Changsheng comforted himself. Based on his experience in body refining for many years, he knew that body refining and cultivation were closely linked. Without strong cultivation, a strong physical body could not be supported. If he wanted to pursue the ninth realm of body refining, he must at least have an eighth realm of cultivation.
