Chapter 320: Chapter 289: Obstructed_1

Xu Mu was at a loss within the trapped formation.

Although he too had a proficiency in formations, the level of this formation was too high. With his ability, there would not be any chance of breaking it within a few years.

This space would self-destruct soon, not giving him a few years to attempt breaking it.

Nor would the Black YuanYing let him go.

The longer the time, the more dangerous it would be for him.

Just then, Xu Mu thought of the jade simple for the Corpse Puppet Skill he had just obtained.

“I don’t know if this method will work?”

Xu Mu was somewhat hesitant holding the jade simple, but this thread of hesitation was quickly extinguished by him. Now, there was no other way.

Xu Mu’s idea was simple, that was to cultivate the Corpse Puppet Skill, to see whether he could control or sense the surrounding Corpse Puppets through this skill, to find a breakthrough for breaking the formation.

Although such a method was somewhat fanciful, it was not necessarily unfeasible.

“Anyway, it’s just the loss of some Luck Value!”

One couldn’t exactly say it was a loss, the Corpse Puppet Skill was something he had to learn sooner or later anyway.

Having an idea in his heart, Xu Mu began to invest a large amount of Luck Value on the Corpse Puppet Skill immediately.

Corpse Puppet Skill was a tier-ten skill, theoretically, even if Xu Mu kept persisting, he would have to spend half a month to fully integrate it. The huge amount of information and experience cost too much spiritual power.

The only good thing about learning this skill was that it did not consume essence and Qi like the Body Refinement Realm.

However, while he was upgrading, he suddenly found something abnormal. The situation where his mind was hit by a large number of information streams when he had upgraded skills before did not occur. He easily accepted the information.

What was going on?

Xu Mu was stunned for a while, somewhat clueless for a time.

But soon, he figured it out.

It was due to the Sin Refining Pill!

When he was facing the Black YuanYing, he had taken some of the Sin Refining Pills to increase his Soul Power. Now, just after half a day has passed, the power consumed was less than three-tenths.

The information stream produced by upgrading Skills now was completely countered by the Sin Refining Pill.

Xu Mu’s heart could not help but rejoice.

If he had a large quantity of Sin Refining Pills, wouldn’t he be able to upgrade any skill to a transcendent level in a short time?

Such an effect would be of great help to him in the future.

“Let’s talk about future things later, for now let’s prioritize upgrading the Corpse Puppet Skill!”

With the help of the Sin Refining Pill, the upgrade that would originally have taken half a month was completed in less than an hour.

Xu Mu sat cross-legged and began to use the secret techniques within the Corpse Puppet Skill to sense the surroundings. Soon, he caught some barely discernible mental fluctuations.

They were simple, mechanical and filled with pure malice!

“It turns out that this guy is using Corpse Puppets to control the formation. Heaven is helping me!”

By sensing the positions of the Corpse Puppets, Xu Mu had a vague feeling that they were forming a formation and situated at the core of the formation.

If nothing else, the Black YuanYing was making use of the power of the Corpse Puppets to form such a strong formation. Otherwise, based on what he had observed along the way, it would not be possible to form such a powerful formation in such a short time. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

If not for this, he would not have rashly barged in.

“The Corpse Puppets have few mixed intentions, they are the best choices to be used as formation flags. It’s my oversight!”

Xu Mu weighed his gains and losses in his heart.

Only now did he remember that the Mystery Yin refining corpse skill he had obtained from the Iron Corpse Door had the method of arranging formations with corpses.

The Black YuanYing was likely to have deliberately scattered the formation of the Corpse Puppets to lure him in. He originally intended to launch a surprise attack but was seen through by Xu Mu and then used the formation to trap him.

Fortunately, this formation did not have much offensive power, otherwise, it wouldn’t be so easy now.

Understanding the principle of the formation, and sensing the location of the Corpse Puppet at the core of the formation, breaking the formation was naturally much easier.

Although Xu Mu has mastered the Corpse Puppet Skill to its pinnacle, he still has no way to forcibly seize control of the puppet’s rights. However, he could still interfere with it by using a secret skill.

Under the interference of his secret skill, the flawless formation immediately shows irregular fluctuations. Xu Mu seized the opportunity to swiftly escape.

As he escaped from the formation, the scenery before him changed, and he found himself back in the great hall.

“That Black YuanYing has the ability to instantly move. It’s incredibly difficult to kill him, especially inside his own lair. I’ll be better off leaving this place!”

Capturing the Black YuanYing would indeed entail significant benefits. But, the risks were equally high. Xu Mu wasn’t fond of taking enormous risks for benefits that weren’t guaranteed.

In his heart, nothing was more valuable than his life.

Xu Mu didn’t turn back to break the formed puppet formation. His Heavenly Phoenix Wings unfolded, transforming into a white ‘Escape Light’, flying outwards at high speed.

A physique that can deceive a Golden Core Stage cultivator can’t trick the Black YuanYing. Therefore, he didn’t bother making his body appear intangible and instead accelerated his escape as fast as he could.

He had just flown a short distance when a massive surge of Sword Qi suddenly attacked him. It nearly heavily injured him – after all, a cultivator’s defensive power is greatly weakened in the state of Escape Light.

“Are you out of your mind?!”

Xu Mu hastily stopped the Escape Light and cast a spell to form a protective shield of Spiritual Power to block the incoming Sword Qi.

“It’s you!”

A surprised and angry voice came out.

Xu Mu looked over.

It was the proud-looking young woman with eyes full of rage, surrounded by several floating swords.

It was none other than the Seventh Princess.

Her last two remaining subordinates had disappeared without a trace. He didn’t know if they had fled or died.

“So what if it’s me! Are you nuts?”

Xu Mu ignored the Seventh Princess and was preparing to leave without bothering to ask why she was alone. The Black YuanYing could arrive at any moment, and he didn’t dare to waste time here.

“You! Stay right there!”

The Seventh Princess, her rage on the brink of exploding like a powder keg, heard Xu Mu dare to curse at her. She grasped her hand into a Squeeze the Finger Jue and shot out several fierce Sword Qi to block his path.

“I don’t have time to play games with you here. If you act like this again, I won’t be polite.” Xu Mu’s gaze was icy.

“Where did YouMeng go? Why are you alone?” The Seventh Princess suppressed her anger and asked.

“I don’t have time to chat with you. It’s very dangerous here. I suggest you leave as soon as possible.”

The Black YuanYing could appear at any time, and he honestly didn’t have any patience left. After saying his piece, he wanted to continue flying outwards but the Seventh Princess attacks again to block his way.

At this point, even Xu Mu felt a stinging sensation in his chest due to the suppressed anger. He forced himself to look at her.

“What on earth do you want?”

“Since my younger sister is not here, you’ll listen to me from now on. If an enemy appears, you’ll assist me with the attack!” The Seventh Princess commanded, leaving no room for discussion.

All her subordinates were already killed by the Black YuanYing. Now, she is genuinely a commander without an army. Even though she has a life-saving Secret technique, she still would find it challenging to succeed without someone to divert the enemy’s attention.

This was why she kept Xu Mu. Otherwise, given her temper, she would’ve acted against Xu Mu long ago.

“Listen to your grandpa! You cheap woman, who do you think you are?” Xu Mu didn’t hesitate to curse back.

When this woman was outside, her expression clearly showed she wanted to kill him. She even threatened him via a voice transmission. Now she clearly wants him to be a disposable pawn.

Under these circumstances, Xu Mu won’t show any respect to her. That he hadn’t attacked directly already showed his restraint.

As soon as Xu Mu’s words were spoken, it caused the Seventh Princess, who was already filled with rage, to explode. In all her life, no one had ever dared to curse at her, and her remaining patience completely turned into anger.

“You servile dog! Go to hell!”

The Seventh Princess performed the Squeeze the Finger Jue action and unleashed endless Sword Qi, surging towards Xu Mu.

“A fight is inevitable then!”

Xu Mu showed no courtesy either, and similarly performed the Squeeze the Finger Jue action. The roaring Fire Element transformed into hundreds of golden flying swords, shooting at her.
