"Your Excellency?"
Chu Mu subconsciously took a step back, his voice low.
"What is this place for?"
The white-haired man looked around and asked.
Chu Mu was silent and slightly hesitant: "This place belongs to the Great Chu Immortal Realm."
"Da Chu... Changsheng Sect?"
The man in white seemed a little unsure. He looked at Chu Mu and said, "Are you a disciple of the Changsheng Sect?"
Chu Mu shook his head: "Junior casual cultivator."
"Rogue cultivator..."
The man in white nodded and glanced at the large array arranged by Chu Mu:
"I have fallen long ago. Now, I am just a remnant soul that is barely preserved by my bloodline, and I am just trying to survive with the help of secret methods."
"Now that I am forcibly awakened by you, there is not much time left. I will be annihilated by ashes at any time. You don't need to be so afraid."
Chu Mu remained silent, but he was also a little surprised.
After all, no matter how you look at the white-haired man in front of you, he doesn't look like a remnant soul.
As for being forcibly awakened by him, you will be annihilated by ashes. I don’t know whether this is true or not, but he is obviously not naive enough to believe it directly.
He remained extremely vigilant to every word spoken by the man in front of him.
The coercion that first came, although it was only fleeting, was still real and far surpassed that of foundation building!
Seeing Chu Mu's silence, the man in white seemed to have guessed what Chu Mu was thinking. He shook his head and chuckled with an inexplicable bitterness: "I suffered a catastrophe in my early years, and I barely managed to keep a trace of my soul to survive. It was really because of my obsession."
"Now that I have been awakened by you like this, my time is running out. Perhaps this is what my fate should be."
"But my wish is not fulfilled, and my obsession is hard to get rid of. You woke me up like this, are you willing to inherit the cause and effect with me?"
Chu Mu's eyes moved slightly and he spoke slowly: "What is the obsession with cause and effect that senior mentioned?"
"Pass on my bloodline and send it to my family."
The white-haired man's tone was solemn, and vaguely seemed to be pleading.
His eyes were fixed on the mass of blood at the core of the man's body. Chu Mu was slightly surprised. This mass of blood was refined by him himself!
He checked it carefully and noticed no other abnormalities at all!
"The inheritance of bloodline is not my bloodline, so it is impossible to get the slightest glimpse of it."
The man in white spoke lightly, his eyes fixed on Chu Mu. As if he was worried that Chu Mu would not agree, the man added another sentence.
"I observe that you have understood the intention of the sword, but it seems that it has not been organized. In this way, in my early years, I once obtained the method of concentrating the mind with the intention of the sword. If you should do this, how about it be regarded as your reward?"
Hearing this, Chu Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and his heart suddenly became alert.
He had only used the sword intention when the man was sleeping. Now, it was hidden in the sea of consciousness. If he didn't use it, it would be impossible to reveal it at all.
With his thoughts flowing, Chu Mu asked again: "Where is the senior family?"
"It's not in the Da Chu territory. It starts from Da Chu, passes through the southwestern countries, and then crosses the endless desert sea to reach the Da Heng territory."
"In Red Eagle County, southwest of Daheng, this is where my family is located."
"The Zhu family of the Red Eagle Marquis Mansion is well known in Red Eagle County."
"Red Eagle Marquis Mansion?"
Hearing this term, Chu Mu was slightly startled and confused.
The man explained:
"The Daheng Immortal Realm is different from your Da Chu Immortal Realm, and even the surrounding countries, sects and sects."
"It's useless to say more. You will know it one day when you reach the great eternity."
Chu Mu nodded, considering the pros and cons in his mind.
Then, he seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly looked at the man: "How far is Daheng from Dachu?"
The man was silent for a while, then glanced at Chu Mu again, seeming to realize something.
"The distance is difficult to measure. With your cultivation level, it will be difficult for you to cross the endless desert sea in your lifetime."
"But I know that a teleportation array from ancient times can reach directly from the Xichang Kingdom to the northwest of the endless desert sea. It is located in a hidden place and should not be discovered by others."
"When you reach the northwest of the Endless Desert Sea, with your cultivation, it will take at least a few years to reach the border of Da Chu. Once you arrive at Da Chu, you can take the post flying boat directly to Red Eagle County..."
Listening to this man's understatement of a lifetime or a few years, Chu Mu couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
Not to mention anything else, Xichang Kingdom is at least two to three million miles away from Dachu. Now that war has broken out in Dachu, most of the former flying boat traffic has been basically paralyzed.
If he wanted to go to Xichang, he would have to fly there by himself, and he would have to pass through a large area ruled by the Changsheng Sect along the way.
With such a long distance and the dangers along the way, it would take at least a few years.
It took several years to reach a starting point...
After going back and forth like this, ten or twenty years is considered a short time.
He is mentally ill to make such a deal.
Seeing Chu Mu's silence, the man in white added another sentence: "I have a Fierce Sun Fire Essence, which can also be used as a reward."
Chu Mu's pupils shrank and he suddenly raised his head to look at the man in front of him.
"Fire Sun Spirit?"
"Yes, the Fierce Sun Fire Spirit."
The man nodded, raised his hand, and threw a storage ring towards Chu Mu.
"The Fiery Sun Fire Essence is among them. In the storage ring, there are also some belongings in front of me. However, in order to maintain the existence of the residual soul in these years, I have consumed a lot, and there is not much left. I will give it all to you. The reward..."
The man's expression was complicated and his tone was sighing.
Chu Mu took the ring and carefully touched it with his spiritual sense. After confirming that there was nothing abnormal, he inserted his spiritual sense into the storage ring.
The ring has a huge space, about three to four times that of his storage ring, but there are indeed not many items in it.
Dozens of bottles and cans were piled in the corner, most of which had their caps opened.
On the other side, there are dozens of jade boxes. Like those bottles and jars, most of them have been opened.
And that "Fire Sun Fire Essence"...
Chu Mu's consciousness moved slightly, and when he raised his hand, a red mineral material appeared in his palm.
The mineral material is not big, no more than the size of a fist. The mottled red color is like complex flame lines engraved on the mineral material.
Suspended in the hand, you can't feel any heat at all, and all the energy is restrained.
Legend has it that the Fire Spirit was born in the sun.
Although it is the essence, in fact, it is the product of the true Great Sun True Fire Sutra that has been evolved for countless years and condensed into substance.
The big sun hangs high in the sky. According to the world of immortality, the place where the big sun is located is outside the boundary.
It is said that this blazing sun fire spirit will fall from the sun into the realm only by some chance coincidence.
Its rarity is obviously self-evident.
With such a piece the size of a fist, if the news got out, he had no doubt that even the high-ranking Nascent Soul monks would be moved by it and even fight over it!
The most important thing is that he practiced the Great Sun Sutra, in which the most important main material of the natal magic weapon is... this blazing sun fire essence!
Chu Mu confirmed again and again, but the mineral materials in front of him were exactly the same as the description of the blazing fire spirit recorded in the Great Sun Scripture, and there was no difference at all.
He tried to calm down the trembling in his heart and looked at the man in white again, his voice a little unsteady: "Is there a time limit for this transaction?"
"Within fifty years, it will be delivered to my family and handed over to my direct bloodline."
"Before you pass on my bloodline inheritance to my family, in order to ensure the activity of the bloodline, it needs to be nourished with blood food regularly, and you can no longer do any harmful behavior to my bloodline."
Chu Mu replied: "But you must first ensure that the bloodline... will not harm Chu."
"What do you fear from a remnant soul?"
The man shook his head: "There is a soul contract in the storage ring, and everyone from Nascent Soul to Nascent Soul is restricted by it."
"You draw up the contract first, and then you and I sign the contract."
"Can."
Chu Mu nodded, took out the Soul Contract from the storage ring, checked it carefully, and then drew up the conditions on the contract.
When handing over the contract, Chu Mu added: "Senior, I have to trouble you to follow the contract and make an oath of Taoism."
The man glanced at Chu Mu, took the jade slip, and did not object. After signing the soul contract, he directly swore the oath of Taoism.
After the contract was established, Chu Mu looked at the man in white again and asked tentatively: "May I ask how far your senior has reached?"
"Golden elixir!"
The man in white glanced at Chu Mu and uttered two words. Then he raised his hand to seal the secret, and a flash of white light appeared. He waved his sleeve, and the white light came straight towards Chu Mu.
Chu Mu was horrified and subconsciously gave an order. Just as he was about to mobilize the puppets to surround and kill him, the man's voice also reached his ears.
"This is the method of concentrating the sword's spirit. You can accept it."
After finishing speaking, the man stood with his hands behind his back and made no other movements.
Chu Mu rolled up his sleeves, rolled up the white light in his hand, and checked it carefully before peering into his consciousness.
After browsing for a while, he relaxed his vigilance a little.
"I don't have much time left, so I won't be able to show up. Everything will be done according to the contract."
At this time, along with another voice, the figure of the man in white flickered, and the transformed soul body dissipated and returned to the blood essence.
The blood was floating in the air, and the so-called remnant soul of the man in white seemed to have disappeared.
Chu Mu hesitated, and after a long time, he stepped forward and threw out a series of spells to completely seal the blood essence.
He then carefully put it away, nourished it with blood and food according to the contract conditions, sealed it with the house array, and placed it in the room.
After all the work was done, he arranged for four wolf puppets to stand outside the house, using the formation of the four elephants as the last line of defense. Only then did he feel relieved.
The pressure that a powerful golden elixir man, even if it was just his remnant soul, brought to him was obviously indescribable.
After all, in his opinion, the man in white is very evil.
And...this contract...
It seems... so normal.
According to the man in white, he forced him to wake up and almost killed him.
How could he repay kindness with hatred?
Giving away spiritual materials and techniques, just for the so-called obsession?
Chu Mu could understand it, and it seemed normal, but it was too normal and seemed a little abnormal.
He sat cross-legged in the courtyard and carefully sorted out the occurrence, process, and results of the entire incident.
Every detail is carefully considered.
There is no doubt that if there is any speculation, there are many questions.
But if we talk about reality...
He got the secret book, and the "Fire Sun Fire Essence", which can be called a rare treasure, has also been placed in his storage ring.
In other words, regardless of the outcome, good or bad, or the benefits, he got it all.
And... there are still fifty years to go.
It means that he is sitting firmly on Diaoyutai and has absolute initiative.
"Let's take a step and see..."
After taking a long breath, Chu Mu shook his head and didn't bother to dwell on it anymore.
Fifty years, but there is still a long time...
…
