Chapter 158: There’s a Big Deal. Do You Accept It?

“I’d like to see you die!”
Cao Ang, who was sitting on the ground, panted heavily. He stared at Han Muye, who was wrapped in the torrent, and laughed sinisterly.
“The earth lineage has a spirit. My Cao family has nurtured the Earth Spirit of this Mystic Jade Steel for hundreds of years. Originally, my Cao family was prepared to use this earth spirit to refine a Dharma treasure.”
Cao Ang laughed maniacally. He slowly stood up and looked at the spiritual light wrapped around him turning into a ball of light.
“I’m the direct descendant of the Cao family. No one objects to me using this treasure, right?
“When the earth spirit devours your soul and body, I’ll use you to refine my sword.
“Aren’t you good at appraising swords? You should like it if I refine you into a sword, right?”
Han Muye didn’t care how Cao Ang laughed outside the ball of light.
At this moment, his entire mind was fighting with the light shadow that had rushed into his divine treasure.
However, it was not as Cao Ang thought. It was the Earth Spirit that wanted to devour Han Muye’s soul and body. So he trapped it in his divine treasure and attacked with all his might, wanting to kill it.
The Earth Lineage Spirit was a spiritual item comparable to a spiritual weapon.
If he obtained this item, he could use it to infuse his sword!
In the divine treasure, the huge body that looked like a worm kept squirming before being strangled by Han Muye’s soul sword.
......
Every time the sword light slashed, it would bring out fragments from the earth silkworm.
The sword light that was stained with spiritual fragments became more and more condensed.
The sword of the soul could absorb a trace of spirituality and increase its purity.
Most of the spiritual fragments were sent to Han Muye’s dantian.
The sword pill that was originally nourishing in his dantian vibrated and swallowed all the fragments.
Then spiritual light appeared on the sword pill, as if it was extremely happy.
After 10,000 years of loneliness, the sword pill that the sword spirit had left was nourished by spirituality again.
All the spiritual energy in Han Muye’s dantian was absorbed by the sword pill.
Not enough spiritual energy?
Then he would make up for it with pills.
He raised his hand and placed several immortal-grade Cloud Qi Pills into his mouth.
The vigorous medicinal power turned into extremely pure spiritual qi and rushed into his dantian.
Divine Treasure Slashing Earth Spirit, Dantian Sword Refinement Pill.
The huge earth lineage power outside his body seeped into his body and landed on Han Muye’s sword bone.
This power was inexplicably compatible with the sword bone.
Opportunity!
The Cao Family’s earth lineage power that had been nurtured for countless years was an opportunity for Han Muye.
Every time the sword of the soul slashed, the sword light became more corporeal.
The spirituality absorbed by every slash was comparable to Han Muye’s months of cultivation.
The spiritual fragments were absorbed by the sword pill in his dantian, making it more agile and active.
10 breaths.
A hundred breaths.
A quarter of an hour.
“Hum—”
The spiritual light shook, then dissipated into nothingness.
Seeing the earth lineage power that had accumulated for countless years dissipate, Cao Ang’s face flashed with regret.
In the blink of an eye, he stared at Han Muye, who was standing there with his eyes closed.
“Haha, Mystic Jade Earth Spirit, I didn’t go back on my word, right? When I say I’ll take you away, I’ll take you away. How’s this body? Follow me from now on. I—”
Before he could finish, Han Muye opened his eyes.
There was no confusion in Han Muye’s eyes, and his expression was calm.
“Thanks a lot.”
Han Muye spoke calmly.
Cao Ang laughed and was about to walk forward when he suddenly stopped.
In front of him, Han Muye raised his hand, and a Primordial Jade White Pill appeared in his palm, spinning gently.
That is—
Although Cao Ang had never seen it before, he had heard of it countless times!
Sword Pill!
“I used the earth lineage spirit to condense this sword pill.”
Han Muye spoke calmly. With a tap of his finger, the sword pill spun and floated in the air, with traces of sword energy flashing on it.
Spirituality.
This sword pill was very spiritual.
A spiritual sword pill. Is that a Dharma treasure?
Cao Ang’s mouth fell open and his eyes widened.
This sword pill had yet to reach the level of a Dharma treasure. Han Muye had seen the appearance of a Dharma treasure sword spirit before.
At present, this sword pill was at most a peak-level spiritual weapon.
The sword spirit in the sword pill still needed to be slowly nurtured before it could become a Dharma treasure.
Enough.
How many Dharma treasures were there in the entire Western Frontier?
With a raise of his hand, the sword pill returned to his dantian.
Han Muye looked up at the pale Cao Ang.
“How did this happen? How did this happen…?”
Cao Ang whispered with a blank expression.
That was an earth spirit!
That was the Earth Spirit that the Cao Family fed with the blood of countless mortals!
The power of the Earth Spirit should at least be equivalent to the soul power of an Earth Realm expert. How could this guy in front of him refine it into a sword pill?
And the Sword Pill…
For some reason, Cao Ang sighed in his heart at this moment.
Han Muye shook his head, turned around, and walked out of the mine.
“You—you’re not going to kill me?”
Han Muye didn’t answer him. He flew past and appeared at the entrance of the mine.
At the entrance of the mine, the disciples of the Duanhua Sword Sect who had escaped earlier were all lying on the ground.
The head of the Cao family, Cao Anchun, who had lost an arm, and the eldest daughter of the Cao family, Cao’e, who was holding a sword, were both standing there.
Lu Gao, whose face was covered in a black veil and whose body was stained with blood, grinned when he saw Han Muye come out.
“Senior Brother Han.” Cao’e looked at Han Muye and called out in a low voice.
“Master Cao, I think you know what to do.”
Han Muye looked at Cao Anchun and turned to leave.
Lu Gao followed him and strode away.
After walking out of the mine, Han Muye said, “Brother Lu, stay here. If a third person comes out of the mine today, destroy the Cao family.”
Destroy the Cao Family!
Lu Gao shuddered.
Watching Han Muye leave, Lu Gao slowly turned around and stood where he was.
Since Senior Brother Han said that only two people could come out of the mine, there would be two people.
Senior Brother Han said that if one more person came out, he would destroy the Cao family.
…
Lu Gao returned to the Sword Pavilion just before sunset.
“Senior Brother Han, the head of the Cao family and Miss Cao left the mine. Then the head of the Cao family destroyed the mine.”
Lu Gao reported in a low voice, then said, “Senior Brother Han, Patriarch Cao asked me to bring you a message. The Cao family is still the Cao family.”
Han Muye nodded, a smile on his face.
Cao Ang could not be left alive.
Today, he had betrayed the Nine Mystic Mountain and the Cao Family. In the future, he might betray them again.
The Nine Mystic Sword Sect did not care about the betrayal of the Cao Family.
However, the Cao Family could not tolerate a grandson who had betrayed the family.
Today, Han Muye did not make a move and let the Cao Family Head and Cao’e choose.
If they kept Cao Ang, Lu Gao would take action and destroy the Cao family.
Looking at the setting sun in the distance, Han Muye sighed.
Unknowingly, he had become so indifferent to the lives of others.
“Brother Lu, go to the Cao family tomorrow and hand this refining technique to the eldest daughter of the Cao family.”
Han Muye reached for a piece of paper and spoke softly.
Lu Gao took it and said, “Why the eldest daughter of the Cao family?”
“Because he wants to stay with the Cao family.” Huang Six’s voice sounded.
Han Muye shook his head and turned to walk up the Sword Pavilion.
Looking at his back, Huang Six clicked his tongue and said in a low voice, “This kid is becoming more and more like that old man Gao Changgong. He speaks and does things mysteriously.”
Lu Gao nodded and leaned over. “Does he really want to stay with the Cao family?”
Huang Six turned to look at Lu Gao and said calmly, “Are you short of spiritual rocks?”
Lu Gao shook his head.
“Then after you send the letter tomorrow, you can go to the market at the foot of the mountain. You can stay there for three nights at the price of a spiritual rock.”
Huang Six turned and stepped into the Sword Pavilion.
“That expensive? Can I quote Sixth Brother’s name for a cheaper price?”
Lu Gao muttered.
…
On the third floor of the Sword Pavilion, Han Muye, who was sitting cross-legged, was surrounded by sword light.
Endless spiritual energy surged before being retracted into his dantian.
The gains today were even greater than he had imagined.
Not only did the Earth Spirit’s power allow him to refine the Sword Pill and obtain a peak-level sword, but it also condensed nearly half of the soul sword in his divine treasure.
The sword of the soul that originally required 60 years to condense now required 30 years of effort.
In addition, his sword bone was also attached to the power of the earth lineage and benefited a lot.
Reaching out, Han Muye took out an immortal-grade Energy Nurturing Pill and swallowed it without hesitation.
As soon as the pill entered his mouth, the surging spiritual energy turned into a torrent that flowed through his meridians.
The Energy Nurturing Pill could increase one’s cultivation level by one level. It could also provide a huge amount of spiritual energy for the Qi Condensation Realm.
Moreover, this one was an immortal-grade.
The stream of spiritual energy rushed into his dantian and continuously expanded the space in his dantian, making the sword qi and sword pills more comfortable.
Two days later, Han Muye trembled and opened his eyes.
There was no flash of sword light in his eyes.
He was now at the peak of the Seventh level of Qi Condensation.
He did not continue to increase his cultivation. He stood up and walked downstairs.
His body tempering technique did not keep up, and his strength was not balanced enough.
This was nothing to other cultivators. Many cultivators did not cultivate body tempering techniques.
However, Han Muye cultivated the Mystic Sun Technique and needed to stabilize his body with a body-tempering technique.
Furthermore, he also felt that his physical body was not strong enough. When his cultivation reached a certain level, it would eventually become a weakness.
As he walked downstairs, Huang Six looked up at him.
“Your cultivation level has increased?”
Han Muye nodded.
Huang Six grinned. “Zhao Pu has broken through to the Earth Realm. He came to find you yesterday.”
Zhao Pu.
Eldest Senior Brother of the Three Stones House.
After so many days of seclusion, he had finally broken through to the Earth Realm.
To those direct disciples, breaking through to the Earth Realm was as easy as drinking water.
However, to 99% of the cultivators in the world, the Earth Realm was the starry sky that they had to look up to for their entire lives.
“I’ll take a look at the Three Stones House.”
Han Muye nodded and walked out of the Sword Pavilion.
At the door, Lu Gao crossed his arms and closed his eyes.
“Brother Han, the head of the Cao family asked me to bring back two swords. Sixth Brother said that they are both spiritual weapons.”
Seeing Han Muye, Lu Gao said.
Two spiritual weapon-level swords.
Han Muye knew that this sword was the sword of the Sect Master of the Duanhua Sword Sect, and the other was naturally a gift from the Cao Family.
It was also a sign of allegiance.
Han Muye nodded.
He did not lack swords now. If he placed them in the Sword Pavilion, the sect would give him merit points.
Two spiritual weapon swords could be exchanged for thousands of merit points.
After leaving the Sword Pavilion, Han Muye went straight to the Three Stones House.
There were many Earth Realm experts in the Nine Mystic Sword Sect.
Elders, deacons, and inconspicuous old men might all be Earth Realm experts.
If he encountered an old man going for a walk with a bird by a mountain path, he might be in the Earth Realm.
However, to the junior disciples, no matter who broke through to the Earth Realm, they had to come and congratulate them.
Han Muye walked into the Three Stones House. When he arrived at the lobby, he saw Zhao Pu standing there with his shiny bald head.
“Brother Han.”
Seeing Han Muye arrive, Zhao Pu greeted him with a smile.
Han Muye’s Void Meridian Pill had helped him a lot in breaking through to the Earth Realm.
Therefore, as soon as he came out of seclusion, he went to the Sword Pavilion to visit Han Muye.
“Congratulations.”
Han Muye smiled and took out a scroll, the White Tiger Scroll.
Zhao Pu’s face stiffened.
“Why? Senior Brother Zhao, are you not interested in my gift?” Han Muye chuckled.
This scroll gave Han Muye a lot of insights.
Moreover, it was a treasure that could rival an Earth Realm expert.
But for the current Han Muye, it was useless.
To Zhao Pu, this scroll was something he wanted from the bottom of his heart.
Zhao Pu laughed and reached out to take the painting. “Then I won’t be pretentious. Brother, I’ll remember your kindness.”
Han Muye didn’t stay in the Three Stones House for long.
Zhao Pu had to receive a lot of people these few days.
However, he had an appointment with Zhao Pu. Ten days later, they would go to the secret place where he had discovered the Iron Bull Strength.
When he returned to the Sword Pavilion, he saw Bai Suzhen standing at the door from afar.
“Senior Brother Han, there’s a big deal. Do you want to take it?”
Seeing Han Muye, Bai Suzhen came over and whispered.
