Chapter 358: Merit Blessing (Medium)

“We will completely seal their Qi Sea and Spiritual Sea, shatter their bones, sever their meridians, and twist their muscles and souls. We can't give them any more chances!”

“All medical cultivators and rune masters, stay behind and think of a way to untie these grass ropes.”

In fact, without needing Mu Zeshu to say anything, the other elders of the Mu family had already rushed up.

Branches that emitted a unique Yang attribute aura stabbed into the bodies of these demonic cultivators, instantly turning them into hedgehogs.

These Longevity Peach branches would not take their lives, but they were also pointed at vital points, causing their spiritual qi flow to be completely blocked, and it was almost impossible for them to connect on their own.

Coupled with the few needles on their heads, these demonic cultivators could not even wake up in this situation.

As long as they controlled them and studied them slowly in the future, they would sooner or later be able to undo this Vine Binding Grass.

“Master, what about these people? What should we do?”

A higher-up of the Mu family pointed at a pile of rogue cultivators not far away.

They were guests of the Mu family before. Regardless of whether they chose to join the Mu family in the end, they would form a good relationship.

However, after this happened, the rogue cultivators naturally became the least trusted group.

No one cared if they were all innocent. They were controlled on the spot and watched closely.

They had all drunk quite a bit of spiritual wine and peach blossom brew previously, so they naturally lost consciousness now.

This was a lesson to never drink other people's wine.

“Seal the Qi Sea and search their soul!”

“There's no need to hold back. Investigate carefully one by one. We can't let anyone suspicious escape!”

Soul searching was not in line with the tacitly agreed moral standards of the cultivation world.

Just the mortality rate was as high as 50%. This kind of method that usually only demonic cultivators used might not be used often in secret by these large sects.

These demonic cultivators from before were hidden among the rogue cultivators. No one could guarantee that there were no hidden enemies among them.

The Mu family, who had been completely angered, no longer cared about this “small matter”.

This might cause rumors in the cultivation world that their Mu family had killed guests they invited. It could cause their reputation to be damaged to a certain extent.

However, this incident was serious. They would rather kill wrongly than let it go.

“Master, something happened in the forbidden area.”

Things had just barely ended when something happened.

As soon as he finished speaking, intense battle fluctuations erupted in the core area.

There was actually someone who was bold enough to attack their core Holy Land!

The group of experts immediately abandoned this place and rushed towards the location of the Immortal Peach Ancestor.

“Watch them. The others follow me!”

Most of the cultivators left behind ran to study the method to save their disciples.

The remaining few would throw these rogue cultivators into the Mu family's dungeon.

They controlled the rogue cultivators to use the branches of the Longevity Peach to stabilize them. However, the depth was slightly shallow, so it did not directly pierce through their Qi Sea and cut off their meridians.

However, some damage was unavoidable.

A branch of a Longevity Peach stabbed into Jiang Li's lower abdomen, but the front end directly broke, releasing a light sound.

Clearly, it was not easy to break through Jiang Li's defense, even if he did not take the initiative to defend himself.

However, Jiang Li still contracted his muscles in time, forming a depression on the surface of his body. He grabbed the tree branch to prevent it from falling and being exposed.

Coupled with the mixed illusion technique of the Shu Mountain, this abnormality was completely covered. The cultivators who attacked and the experts standing at the side did not discover it.

Jiang Li lay on the ground and did not move at all. He allowed them to tie him up, and then he piled up on a wooden frame and pushed it towards the area of the Mu family's cell.

There were still two Soul Formation cultivators guarding here, so he could not act rashly for the time being.

Jiang Li only quietly opened his eyes after the surrounding environment became dark and moist.

There did not seem to be any powerful aura nearby, and there were not many guards.

The Qi Sea and the seven major acupuncture points in his body had all been 'stabbed' into the Longevity Peach Branch with the seal runes.

Perhaps the Mu family was very confident in their control methods, and no experts followed them into the dungeon.

Soon, all the rogue cultivators were thrown in.

They still had to deal with more troublesome demonic cultivators, so they could not care about them for the time being.

After the last group of cultivators was thrown in, the two Mu disciples in charge of escorting them were about to leave.

However, at this moment, Jiang Li suddenly jumped up from the crowd.

The tree vines binding his body loosened, and the branches hanging on his body fell along with it. Under the guidance of the illusion technique earlier, the binding on Jiang Li's body was utterly useless.

Two hand sabers slashed at their necks from behind. The Nine Nether spiritual qi mixed with the power of chaos rushed into their minds.

The two Mu cultivators were average in strength. They did not resist much and directly fainted.

“What happened inside? Why aren't the two of you out yet?”

The person outside heard a commotion and the inquirer walked over.

In the end, a figure approached quickly from behind.

The two black hands struck the back of their heads at the same angle.

It was the fifth clone that had run out of the forbidden area. At this moment, Mu Chunyang had already changed his clothes, covering the huge hole in his chest.

“Brother Chunyang? What are we doing here?”

Mu Jingnan, who was beside him, had just barely recovered her mobility. She was in a state of panic and did not know why her brother had come here.

“Jingnan, after this is over, say that you don't know anything.”

“You were only tricked. You didn't do anything, understand? No matter who asks you, don't say anything.”

Mu Jingnan did not know why her Sixth Brother said that.

However, before she could react, he knocked her out with a knife.

After entering, he handed everything to Jiang Li. He could be considered to have completed his mission.

The problem now was how to leave this troublesome place.

Right at this moment, Jiang Li suddenly felt that the spiritual qi that coiled around him seemed to have suddenly become much denser.

Even though he did not actively absorb it, the spiritual qi in the environment approached him.

With a thought from Jiang Li, the spiritual qi in the surroundings gathered, and a green plant that was filled with vitality grew in his palm.

He was very surprised by this. He had not used any of his spiritual qi just now. When had the spiritual qi of heaven and earth become so obedient?

With just a thought, he could use the surrounding energy to unleash his spell technique with no obstruction.

Moreover, the surrounding world became clearer in his eyes.

The surrounding rocks and rocks were different in fine structure. How the spiritual qi in the array formation spirit carvings on the cage circulated in an orderly manner, these things that could not be seen originally became visible in front of his eyes.

He took out a spirit stone from the coffin. Originally, it was only a white translucent crystal in his eyes, but now, he seemed to be able to see that the spiritual qi inside was swimming energetically.

[Resisted the invasion of the Asura World. Receiving the reward of heaven and earth. Added Status: Merit Blessing (Medium)]

[Merit Blessing (Medium): Highly increased natural affinity with heaven and earth, full recovery, enhanced talent, reduced spiritual qi expenditure, reduced accumulation of negative karma, and reduced power of the heavenly tribulation. Probability of breaking through is increased, enhancement of low-grade auspicious qi, the Dao Essence barrier of heaven and earth will weaken, and Enlightenment is strengthened. Duration: 14 days] (− +)

It turned out that after experiencing the merit points farming for half a month, the Merit Blessing status on his body had finally refreshed to a higher level.

All the effects were much stronger than the Merit Blessing (Small). There were also a few additional effects like increasing the probability of breaking through the realm, the enhancement of auspicious qi and the weakening of the Dao Essence barrier of heaven and earth.

He could not sense its exact use for the time being.

However, it should not be bad.

Fortunately, he had completed the status advancement at this moment. Otherwise, the blood pool that the yaksha clone had secretly built would really not be able to last for long.

The remaining blood of madness in the blood pool would be completely exhausted in at most a day or two.

This bit of time was already unable to continue supporting the spatial crack and let Jiang Li continue to farm high merit points.

There was no hope of the Merit Blessing status being elevated again. Continuing to open the spatial crack would only be a waste of energy.

However, Jiang Li did not close it.

If he could not leave normally from here, this spatial crack would be his last escape route.

After putting Mu Jingnan and the four unconscious cultivators together, Jiang Li started to rush out of the peach forest under Mu Chunyang's lead.

In the current Ten Mile Peach Blossom Forest, it could be said that there was a sentry every five steps, and there were guards patrolling from time to time.

The lockdown was extremely tight.

Fortunately, the things that Mu Chunyang had done had not been exposed yet. They could still rely on his identity as the sixth young master to fight for some time.

Jiang Li changed his appearance and wore the peach blossom clothes of the Mu Clan cultivators. Under Mu Chunyang's lead, he rushed towards the outer area of the peach blossom forest.

“Sixth Young Master, Eldest Young Master said that no one can leave this place without his orders.”

After passing two checkpoints, they were finally stopped.

This was the boundary between the Ten Mile Longevity Peach Forest and ordinary peach trees. After leaving this place, the defensive array formation outside would greatly weaken, and their chance of escaping would be higher.

However, the person who stopped them was a cultivator under the First Young Master, Mu Chunhao. He usually did not get along with them.

At this moment, if some elders with authority came over, they might not dare to stop them.

However, the target was Mu Chunyang. They had to cause some trouble no matter what.

“Move aside! Can't you see who I am?” Mu Chunyang reprimanded loudly.

“I'm sorry, Young Master Chunyang. The Elder Young Master said that no one is allowed to leave.”

The other party was very determined. The Eldest Young Master's authority could not suppress others, but he could still suppress the Sixth Young Master.

“Mu Chunhao hasn't become the family head yet. What right does he have to restrict me?”

“I'm working for Father. Can you shoulder the responsibility for delaying the important matter?”

At this moment, he was stopped, and Jiang Li was weighing whether he should make a move or not. There should not be many hurdles after this place. If he killed his way over, how many chances of winning would he have?

“I'm sorry, Sixth Young Master. You can't go out.”

After the cultivator blocked the way and rejected again, he even held the saber on his waist this time.

“You dare to hold a saber against me? You're just a servant, how dare you! According to the family rules, I can cripple you now!”

“Who dares to cripple my guest!”

Mu Chunhao had actually come here at this time.

“Sixth Brother, aren't you cultivating in the core secret area? Why are you here?”

“Did you do something shameful to leave the peach forest at this time?”

“There's something strange about the demonic cultivator's appearance in the family this time. Sixth Brother, aren't you, the Affection Young Master, always with them? Could it be that you brought them into the Mu family?”

“I advise you to obediently surrender and wait for Father to punish you.”

Mu Chunhao saw Mu Chunyang follow his father into the Holy Land to meet the patriarch.

He, who was afraid that his status was threatened, had been angry for the entire day. Now that he had a chance, even if there was no evidence, he had to put the blame on this outstanding sixth brother first.

“I've already said that I'm working for our father. You can't afford to delay matters!”

“This is the token of the ancestor. Let's see who dares to stop me?”

As he spoke, he took out a peach leaf with mysterious golden patterns on its surface.

Mu Chunhao was also shocked when he saw the leaf.

He had seen this leaf before. It was indeed the leaf on the ancestor's body.

Although the family did not seem to have any precedent of using this kind of leaf as a token, things were urgent. Removing a leaf was already enough to prove his identity.

“Hmph! You're lucky.” Mu Chunhao gritted his teeth but still did not dare to disobey the orders of the patriarch and family head. He ordered his subordinates to move aside.

Jiang Li, who was controlling Mu Chunyang, also heaved a sigh of relief.

He and Mu Chunyang crossed the checkpoint and walked out.

As long as he left this place and used the same trick again, he might be able to leave this place safely.

However, it was unknown if his luck was good or bad. The continuous collision of spiritual qi behind seemed to be getting closer and closer to them.

It was the Nine Nether Wood from the graveyard that was fleeing towards them.

It could actually escape from the siege of so many top-notch cultivators.

Was it the reverse domain of the Back Yin Mountain? What a troublesome ability.

He was coming for the heavenly peaches!

Jiang Li quickly thought of the other party's goal.

He actually wanted to snatch something at this time. Jiang Li only wanted to scream, “Don't come over!”

However, he could not hesitate anymore and did not hide his goal. The force beneath his feet exploded and he ran out with Mu Chunyang.

“Wait, there's something wrong with them. Stop them!”

When Mu Chunhao saw this, how could he not know that the two of them were guilty? He hurriedly called for people to stop them.

However, the dozens of streaks of light that were chasing after them had already flown here in an instant.

Mu Zeshu's figure appeared above the black shadow. He shot out a peach blossom sword finger towards the Nine Nether Wood below.

The white cat body had already been abandoned. Now, he had transformed into his main body, an old Daoist priest whose entire body was covered in wooden patterns.

His body emitted a layer of light. After the peach blossom sword finger struck this layer of light, the stalemate lasted for a moment before it bounced back the same way.

However, his strength was inferior to the Mu family's patriarch after all. Even if he reflected a portion of the attack, he was still ruthlessly smashed into the ground by the irresistible force.

The landing point was just nearby Jiang Li and his clone!
