Power Gap
“Mu Yu sends his humble greetings, Elders.” Mu Yu accompanied his greeting with a palm and fist salute.
“My disciple not come back with you?” Daoist Chu Buqu anxiously asked from the sky with Tan Qingquan beside him.
“He has. He is currently at Moyun Mountains. It is a long story, but we have all returned safe and sound.”
“Glad to hear. My slovenly disciple only ascended to Ascension Realm days before entering Ultimate Immortals Monument. We can’t have a thirty-seven year old prodigy die… You’re a bit better, of course.”
“You flatter me, Elder. Every man has a different destiny,” humbly replied twenty-six year old Mu Yu.
“There’s hope now that you’re back. Your return will raise morale and spur everyone on to grow as victory will be perceived to be possible.” Tan Qingquan bobbed his head approvingly.
“Elder, how are Elder He and Xuan Family?”
“They’re here. You can revive them whenever you’re ready,” answered Tan Qingquan.
Mu Yu expressed his gratitude with a nod. “The status quo is not in our favour. Qiao Xue, enter Revealing Cauldron and learn Shadow Synthesis now to ascend to Apotheosis Realm. Dad will use Revealing Cauldron to keep you safe while you train.”“All right,” responded Qiao Xue.
Bitter about feeling she was a burden, Tian Ran bit down on her lip. “Mu Yu, I’ll go train, too.”
“You can, but don’t overthink. You need to keep a level head. You’re not Qiao Xue, understand?” Mu Yu comforted.
“I’ll try to catch up.”
“A-Dai will go with you. A-Dai wants to protect you on behalf of master.”
“Thanks, A-Da.”
“If Tian Ran had Master’s beautiful mountain peak, it could resonate with you to help you improve your cultivation.”
“What is this beautiful peak you speak of?”
“It’s a pretty mountain peak. A-Dai used to play hide and seek on it with Xiaoshuaishuai, hehe.”
Mu Yu presented World Manifestation Samsara Cycle Peak. “A-Dai, is this what you’re talking about?”
“You also have it, A-Mumu? Why did you steal it from Master? You have to give it to Tian Ran. Tian Ran’s qi and the mountain’s qi are linked. Master told A-Dai that his blood and the mountain are fused. That’s why the mountain resonates with him.”
“It’s fallen asleep, though. It’s a dao artefact without Primordial Yin Yang, isn’t it?”
Ku Mu explained, “Sword Shadow Dust Gale’s knowledge and control over dao artefacts puts ours to shame.”
As soon as Mu Yu handed World Manifestation Reincarnation Cycle Mountain to Tian Ran, the mountain vibrated whilst releasing a light beam onto Tian Ran, sucking her in. To speak more correctly, it shrunk her down to maintain her size ratio relative to the mountain so that she could walk around on it.
A-Dai grabbed the mountain and said, “A-Dai has to protect Tian Ran. A-Dai will keep Tian Ran company while she cultivates.”
And so, Mu Yu let A-Dai into Revealing Cauldron and then went to hear Daoist Yundan and Helian Kong’s reports.
“… Dozens of adepts from the eight great sects have pledged allegiance to foreign races or are under their control,” Helian Kong informed.
“So, we only have eight Ascension Realm cultivators in Sword Shadow, while they have at least five Apotheosis Realm and no less than two hundred Ascension Realm adepts?” Mu Yu solemnly swept his eyes over those in Pill Palace.
“Unfortunately. Two elders from the eight great sects, namely Daoist Yuhe from Earth Sovereign Sect and Can Wanzi from Mystic Spirit Sect, refused to submit and escaped. Ku Mu has affirmed they aren’t under Divine Soul Formation’s control.”
“It is an honour to meet you, Lord Mu Yu.” Daoist Yuhe, Ascension Realm Third Layer elder in his eighties, and Cang Wanzi, Ascension Realm Second Layer elder, got up to salute Mu Yu.
“Elder Cang Wanzi, it has been a long time!”
“Please forgive me for not knowing better at Eight Grass Village,” conveyed Cang Wanzi, burying his head as he referred to the year he tried to have Mu Yu apprehended after Mu Yu fended off Archfiend Baiyuan’s attempt to establish the fiend race’s authority.
Mu Yu helped Cang Wanzi up. “Don’t say that, Elder. Let’s leave the past behind. I’m glad you still have a sense of justice.”
“Thank you, Lord Mu Yu.”
“A human should not be the servant of another race. Whatever order it is you have, your subject will give all that he has to slay those foreign races!” promised Daoist Yuhe.
Alchemist Yao voiced, “Mu Yu, Daoist Yuhe is Xing Gao’s shifu. You should recognise him if my memory does me justice. Cai Lie and Xing Gao are now training together.”
“I do remember. Daoist Yuhe’s courage is mankind’s foundation. I will be counting on all of you to help our race in the future.”
“This is Daoist Hualong and Daoist Shengming. The two of them are reclusive freestyle cultivators,” introduced Helian Kong.
Both elders had grown out white beads and hair.
“Greetings, Lord Mu Yu.”
“You need not worry about pleasantries, Elders.”
“As for Gu Jiangyou… He does not like to speak much, so we don’t know what his stance is. All we heard from Greater Heaven Caster Lu is that he is your guest…”
Mu Yu looked over to the man sitting in the corner with a straight face. “He can be trusted.”
Gu Jiangyou got up to salute Mu Yu. “You sure ascended quickly.”
“There are plenty of traitors’ corpses for you to make use of.” Mu Yu’s soft laugh exuded hostility.
“I’m keen on refining foreign races’ corpses.” Gu Jiangyou sat back down.
“If we include Zhuge Xiaosheng, who’s currently assisting the fiend race, that’s only seven. Who is the eighth Ascension Realm cultivator?”
Daoist Yundan and Helian Kong sighed together.
Ku Mu stated, “Uncle Yuande. He’s not here. He doesn’t have any recollection of his past. I have no means of treating him. Because Bai Jie knew you know how to uninstall Divine Soul Formations, he set it up so that those once under its control would suffer irreversible damage whenever you defused them. So, technically speaking, there are only seven.”
