Da Xuan Martial Saint-Chapter 468 - 291 Approaching_2
Xian Yuchen turned his head towards Sang Huai after listening.
Sang Huai spoke casually, "I have no objections. I don’t need the Five Viscera; the Six Viscera and all flesh, skin, bones, and blood can belong to me."
Xian Yuchen stroked the white demon bird perched on his shoulder, saying, "Except for the heart and lungs from the Five Viscera, I’ll take the other three, no issues there, but I will need half of his Essence Blood."
"Agreed."
Sang Huai replied indifferently.
The three of them, having said this, glanced at each other and then stopped speaking, quietly disappearing into the snow valley.

Cold North County.
In a secluded courtyard within the Inner City County Government,
Chen Mu, dressed in loose commoner clothes, was sitting in front of a stone platform, where a set of jade tea utensils was placed, attended by a maid carefully brewing tea.
"So it seems, Brother Chu has already returned to the Seven Profound Sect."
Chen Mu picked up the teacup, sipped from it, then looked at the figure sitting opposite him and said.
The person, dressed in gender-neutral commoner clothes and with bound hair, yet with remarkably fair and delicate skin, was none other than Chen Mu’s senior sister, Meng Danyun. She too sipped her tea and gave Chen Mu a slight nod, responding, "Mmm, the sect is the most stable place, and for Brother Chu’s final attempt at the Mysterious Pass he must adjust his condition to the optimum."
"Let’s hope Brother Chu achieves Perfection this time."
Chen Mu, gazing into his teacup, saw his plain yet handsome reflection in the tea and commented with a sigh.
Time had moved on.
Chu Jingsui had also reached the final moment to challenge the Mysterious Pass. Being nearly fifty years old, if he could not succeed this time, his Qi-Blood vitality would gradually decline, leaving him no more chances.
Among his peers at Spirit Profound Peak, his acquaintance with Zhao Zhenchuan was the shallowest; he was closer to Chu Jingsui, but Meng Danyun was the closest, having known him since their time in Yu County. Regardless of their closeness, he naturally wished for joy rather than sorrow.
"Brother Chu says he will succeed within a year; his determination is still very strong this time,"
Meng Danyun took another sip of her tea and asked, "Chen, what do you think are Brother Chu’s chances of breaking through this time?"
Chen Mu pondered briefly and replied, "About thirty percent."
He had previously felt Chu Jingsui’s condition, noting his Body Refining was not an issue, his understanding of the Artistic Conception had already reached the limit of the second step, his Martial Arts will should also be sufficient, plus he had several previous attempts at breaking through. Although he had not succeeded in the past, he still had some experience, so a thirty percent chance seemed about right.
"Protector Chen still holds Protector Chu in high regard."
Just as Chen Mu finished speaking, a mature female voice entered the courtyard.
Chen Mu and Meng Danyun both looked towards the source, seeing a figure entering from the outer courtyard—it was Murong Yan, the chief protector of the main peak.
"What brings Protector Murong here?"
Chen Mu said, standing up with a smile.
Although both Murong Yan and he were based in Frost North County, they actually had very little contact with each other.
Meng Danyun also stood up and bowed respectfully to Murong Yan. Given Murong Yan’s status within the Seven Profound Sect, as well as her seniority in terms of both martial cultivation and age, Meng naturally dared not neglect her.
Murong Yan, looking at Chen Mu, spoke in a calming tone, "I’ve encountered some puzzles regarding Martial Arts recently, and I’ve come to seek some advice from Protector Chen."
Upon hearing this, Chen Mu could not help but let out a laugh, "Protector Murong, you speak too highly. With Protector Murong’s Martial Arts having reached the realm of Domain, established as a master among us, how many today could truly be worthy of seeking guidance from Protector Murong?"
Murong Yan chuckled and said, "Although we are not from the same peak, we are still from the same sect. I have been around for a longer time, so just call me Elder Sister. In Martial Arts, those who achieve are revered as pioneers. Though I have made progress in the Qian Heaven, my cultivation in the Kun Earth lineage is just beginning."
Upon hearing Murong Yan’s words, Chen Mu nodded slightly, having understood fully.
For someone like Murong Yan, who no longer had the chance to assail the Mysterious Pass and sought further enhancement of her strength, she could only continue delving into the Domain. Having already mastered the Qian Heaven Domain, logically, her next step would be to attempt the Kun Earth.
However, beginning with Qian Heaven and then moving on to cultivate Kun Earth would be somewhat influencial; this was a different scenario from his, who was advancing simultaneously in both Qiankun aspects. Murong Yan was evidently experiencing obstacles in her cultivation of the Kun Earth and wanted to explore these issues with him.
"I dare not presume to teach, but I also have some thoughts on the aspects of Qian Heaven, which might fit with discussing with Elder Sister Murong," he said to Murong Yan.
Having grasped the Qian Heaven Domain, Murong Yan’s achievements in Artistic Conception were not too far off from those of Qin Mengjun. Indeed, this represented a higher realm for him too, and they could indeed instruct each other, regardless of their strengths."
"Good."
Murong Yan nodded slightly, then shared some of her slight confusions regarding the Kun Earth aspect.
Although Chen Mu had not mastered the Qiankun Domain, in terms of cultivation and insight of Kun Earth alone, he was indeed much higher than the current Murong Yan. Murong Yan had just recently started cultivating the Kun Earth Artistic Conception and had barely stepped into the second phase. The depth of her understanding of Qian Heaven was far greater, making it impossible for her to integrate into a complete Qiankun Artistic Conception.
After listening to Chen Mu’s narrative, Murong Yan alternated between furrowing her brows, pondering thoughtfully, and experiencing sudden realizations.
In terms of the ’vertical’ layers of Artistic Conception, she, who had mastered the Domain, was naturally somewhat higher. However, horizontally speaking, Chen Mu, who had cultivated a complete Qiankun Artistic Conception, stood much farther ahead. Chen Mu’s many insights on Qiankun, were also beyond the reach of those who only practiced a single Artistic Conception or half of the Qian Heaven Conception.
Thus, they discussed and verified Martial Arts in the courtyard, eventually even sparring with each other, employing the actual operation of Qian Heaven and the rotation of Qiankun to mutually understand their achievements. However, their sparring was limited to their fingers and palms and hardly any sound escaped outside the courtyard.
Danyun Meng could not interject in the discussion between Chen Mu and Murong Yan.
After all, her realm was much lesser compared to both Chen Mu and Murong Yan. Yet, as she listened to their discussion on Martial Arts, she also realized many things, particularly when she observed Chen Mu and Murong Yan standing opposite each other, their fingers and palms meeting, with the faint forces of Qian Heaven and Qiankun touching each other, she watched intently and observed closely.

The mutual verification of Qian Heaven Domain and Qiankun Artistic Conception was indeed a rare scene even in the entire Cold North Path.
After a while,
Murong Yan, with a reflective tone, said, "Junior Brother Chen truly deserves to be called the first genius of the Cold North Path today, reaching such a level of skill at this age. When I was your age, I was far from even half your caliber."
Chen Mu, with a calm expression, withdrew his fingers and said, "These trivial skills are not worth mentioning. Elder Sister Murong’s Qian Heaven Domain is truly a grandmaster’s technique. I am still far from reaching the realm of Domain."
Murong Yan shook her head and said, "The difficulty of the Qiankun Domain is far beyond that of Qian Heaven, but given your aptitude, Junior Brother Chen, I think it’s only a matter of time before you comprehend the Qiankun Domain. Even now, if we were truly to fight, I most likely wouldn’t win against you."
Chen Mu looked amiable and was about to say something when suddenly his gaze shifted.
Then he flipped his hand and a chess piece appeared in his palm, precisely one from the Military Formation set. The chess piece was a deep red hue, with a faint, extremely dim blood-red thread pointing in a certain direction afar.
Simultaneously,
Murong Yan performed almost the exact same action, flipping a similarly identical chess piece into her hand.
This situation was familiar to everyone present, including Danyun Meng. Everyone held a chess piece from the Military Formation set. This indicated that someone had activated the distress function of the chess piece, sending a message.
"I’ll go."
Murong Yan glanced at Chen Mu and immediately said. She had barely finished speaking when she disappeared from the spot.
Chen Mu raised his right hand, about to say that he should go instead as he was faster, but Murong Yan had already employed the Qian Heaven Domain to break through the air and fly away. Hence, he shook his head and lowered his hand.
