High-Martial World: System Arrives 30 Years Late
Chapter 467 - 352: Ancient Alien Royal Family, Terrified Ximen Gu, Su Mu, You Will Die!
In the Bone Marrow Cleansing Pool, Su Mu slowly opened his eyes, a fleeting confusion passing through his gaze, and a wry smile appeared on his face.
Everything that happened after crossing the border of the Giant Memory World was beyond his expectations.
With a single thought, Su Mu entered a state of introspection and quickly found the golden fruit next to the crystal human form, though its initial mystery had vanished.
This fruit lay dormant in the sea of consciousness, dim and without light. Su Mu tried to infuse it with spiritual power and various other methods, but the fruit did not respond.
Su Mu could only vaguely sense a mysterious power contained within it. This power was of the same origin as that flowing from the throne and crown of the ancient giant towers in the Golden Giant Realm he had seen in the Endless Dark Place.
Looking at the gains and losses now.
It seemed he made the wrong choice this time...
After giving up the memory inheritance of that giant stronger than even Bai Qingli, who stood unyieldingly to the death, he only obtained a ’useless’ fruit.
In others’ eyes, this would seem like an absolute loss.
But Su Mu was very clear that this fruit was by no means simple, only that at the moment, he could not see through its extraordinary nature.
"Then let’s give you a bit of time... but my time is running short."
Taking a deep breath, Su Mu glanced at the eight strands of black mist brought back from the Black Fog World, which had grown slightly stronger.
However, now that he had mastered the method of entering the Black Fog World, there was no need to keep the black mist for self-reproduction. Why cling to an inexhaustible treasure mountain and be petty?
With a wave of his hand, three silver giant hands rose in the sea of consciousness, grasping the eight strands of black mist and drawing them in, then activating the fourth immortal cell in his spleen.
The black mist, which initially caused Su Mu immense headaches, now perished completely after a few shrill cries.
The immortal cell swallowed the eight strands of black mist in one gulp, although black mist was evil, the energy it contained was extremely pure, akin to a higher-level energy structure.
Just a wisp could equal ten thousand catties of spirit marrow, computed as one upper grade spirit stone for every catty, it’s a small goal, an upper grade spirit stone worth a hundred million.
For ordinary people, even without working, squandering such a fortune would take generations, if not longer.
And for ordinary martial artists, obtaining it meant a chance to advance to a sixth-level martial artist, or if talented enough, to strike for Martial Arts Grandmaster.
But in Su Mu’s eyes now, it was merely an appetizer for the immortal cell.
Under the brilliance of the immortal cell, the wicked aura in the black mist was entirely eradicated, turning into rich energy, and in a breath, the yet-to-form fourth immortal cell began to transform crazily.
In the blink of an eye, it transformed thousands and tens of thousands of times.
Soon, the eight strands of black mist became nutrients for the strengthening of the fourth immortal cell, its brilliance also enhancing a touch. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
"Still underestimated the immortal cell, truly an energy black hole."
"After draining this final pool of bone marrow cleansing liquid and the nine strands of black mist, it would still be quite a journey before full transformation is achieved."
Su Mu couldn’t help but sigh, though his eyes were slightly brightened. The more energy the immortal cell consumes, the greater its potential, which in the absence of energy would be headache-inducing and leave one stuck.
But now that’s not a problem at all, having mastered the pathway to the endless black mist world, the more it devours, the greater the advantage!
Su Mu feared only that the immortal cells weren’t consuming enough.
After all, one powers up while the other wanes. By devouring the energy of the slumbering monster, one could boost strength and weaken the monster’s power. Why not do it willingly!
Emerging from the final exhausted pool of bone marrow cleansing liquid, Su Mu stretched his muscles. The flow beneath every inch of flesh was like not blood, but scorching magma, instantly raising the surrounding temperature, white smoke billowing.
Sigh---------
Su Mu exhaled a breath, intensely hot enough to smelt ordinary metals.
"The Fixed Star Body Refinement technique has somewhat lagged, still a long way from completing the third transformation."
Lately, Su Mu had focused mainly on advancing to grandmaster and refining the immortal cells, causing the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique cultivation to fall behind.
Mainly because whether it was the Fixed Star Body Refining Technique or the immortal cells, both are energy black holes, with the energy required for transformation being enormous, Su Mu previously couldn’t support both ’gods,’ but now, it’s completely different.
Su Mu was confident enough to grab with both hands and keep both stringently!
At this moment, Su Mu suddenly remembered something.
"Almost forgot the three on the silver steps..."
"Time to take a look."
Thinking of the silver steps, Su Mu couldn’t help but anticipate a bit, and the silver steps along with the stone throne standing vacant on it reminded him of a scene in the Golden Giant Realm that was somewhat similar.
Perhaps there was some connection between the two?
...
Southern Theater Command Headquarters Exclusive Hospital.
Hong Lie paced anxiously outside a large ward on the top floor. On the bench outside, Mu Feng and Xiaoyue sat quietly.
"Mu Feng sister, when will dad come back?"
"Leader Su just went to another province for a small mission, and as the mission requires confidentiality, we can’t contact the Leader now. Xiaoyue, don’t worry, Leader Su will be back in a few days."
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyue’s heart stirred slightly, her eyes flickering with a faint silver radiance. She detected a slight quickening of heartbeat and breath in Mu Feng sister’s speech, indicating she was lying.
