Chapter 68: Well Of Prenatal Qi

The deeper he went, the wider the well got.

It was in the shape of an inverted funnel.

After some time, Li Mu finally landed at the bottom of the well.

Activating the field, he scanned his surroundings.

A skeleton was locked up by sixteen bronze chains.

It was deformed and charred.

Upon closer inspection, it was just a torso, with no head or limbs.

The sixteen bronze chains formed a Chain Locking Array that secured the skeleton tightly.

There were also many intricate carvings on the chain.

Li Mu glanced at the skeleton.

“The skeleton must be dead, right?”

What a joke.

How could a skeleton possibly be alive?

Li Mu went up to examine the runes on the chain more closely.

As he stared at them, he felt a slight sense of entrapment and felt prenatal qi flow into the runes on the chains.

“It’s an array crafted by a spatial master.” His eyes narrowed.

It seemed like in this part of the world, apart from there being a demon in the Virtual Realm, there were also spatial masters present.

Li Mu pulled out his sword and slashed the skeleton twice.

The demon’s skeleton disintegrated into ashes that scattered onto the floor.

“I can sense the South Continent’s quarrel from here. How powerful!”

Now that the demon was in ashes, he was certain that the skeleton could not come back to life.

Waving the sword again, Li Mu slashed the runes on the sixteen bronze chains.

In that instant, the prenatal qi from the chains was released into the air.

Li Mu took in a deep breath and absorbed the prenatal qi.

Then, he sat cross-legged on the ground and started to cultivate the qi.

“Checking in!”

“Congratulations to the host for checking in at the Well of Prenatal Qi. You are granted three hundred years of cultivation as a reward.”

“The Well of Prenatal Qi? The name changed?”

Whoosh!

Before he had time to question this, the power flowed into his body and Li Mu felt his cultivation improve drastically.

In the following days, Li Mu continued to check in.

Ten days later, Li Mu’s cultivation reached the third level of the Virtual Realm.

“This is too easy!”

The power he gained from checking in and the strong prenatal qi felt so satisfying!

He stopped cultivating.

Large amounts of prenatal qi rose from the well, filling the entire underground palace and sweeping towards the Imperial Ancestral Temple’s hall in the imperial palace.

In the palace, several cultivating eunuchs suddenly felt a surge of prenatal qi.

They froze for a moment.

“The prenatal qi seems to have gotten thicker.”

“I should hurry up and cultivate! I shouldn’t waste these prenatal qi.”

After half a day, the entire imperial palace was enveloped by prenatal qi.

At the same time, a fog started to enshroud Mount Yan, which stood above the underground palace.

The prenatal qi kept getting thicker.

“What is going on?” In the mist, Liu Rui slowly opened her eyes.

Whoosh!

After leaving Mount Yan, she found that the prenatal qi wasn’t as thick as before. The further away she got from Mount Yan, the weaker the prenatal qi became.

“Good news! I’m going to tell Liu An!”

In the blink of an eye, she ran towards the imperial palace.

As soon as she stepped into the imperial palace, she was shocked by the strong prenatal qi.

“What is going on?” Liu Rui was confused.

In the Imperial Study Room, Liu An was equally perplexed.

Why had the prenatal qi gotten thicker?

“Eunuch Wang, have you found out why the prenatal qi is so thick yet?”

“No, I’m so useless. But Your Majesty, I found something else.”

“What did you find?”

“The further away from the imperial palace, the weaker the prenatal qi is!”

After a couple of hours, Liu An and Liu Rui sat together in one of the Imperial Ancestral Temple’s hall.

“The prenatal qi came from here. There must have been a problem with the underground palace.”

“Stop guessing! Come in!”

Suddenly, the two of them heard a familiar voice.

“Who’s there?”

“Is it Eunuch Li?”

“We’ll know if we go in!”

Liu An opened the door of the tunnel and cautiously stepped in.

“The prenatal qi here is so strong!”

As they entered the underground palace, they were overwhelmed by surprise.

It was simply shocking!

The prenatal qi was so thick it almost solidified.

“The prenatal qi came from this well.” Liu Rui said.

“Should we go down to take a look?”

Liu An hesitated for a moment.

His father had warned them many times not to go down the well, no matter what.

This was what their ancestors had imparted to them!

“I’ll go down. You’re the Emperor. You can’t risk it.” Liu Rui stopped Liu An.

“Our ancestors said that no one is to go down there!”

Liu An grabbed on to Liu Rui’s arm and said, “Based on this situation, we don’t need to go down. The most important thing is that the palace is full of prenatal qi. It’s the ideal situation for cultivation. We can always go down the well another time, when we are much stronger.”

In the well, Li Mu shook his head slightly, then nodded.

As usual, Liu An was very cautious!

This prenatal qi was enough for them to become a Perfected Person.

There was no need for them to take this risk.

Now, Liu An was at the second Saint-level.

He was considered as a powerful master in the South Continent.

If he became a Perfected Person, that would be even more so.

Time slowly ticked by.

In the Honghai Sacred Ground in Zhongzhou, the elders finally split up Clan Nangong.

They didn’t dare to look at each other in the process.

To Elder Mu, this was simply cruel.

Knowing this group of people, if anything happened to him, the Mu Family would be finished.

Fortunately, the Mu Family was very discreet and didn’t have much resources.

This group of people wouldn’t target them.

“Elder Mu, you really don’t want it anymore? Shall I give you one prenatal stone?”

“I don’t want it anymore!” Elder Mu closed his eyes and said.

One prenatal stone.

How miserly.

They had never once thought about their Mu Family.

“Back then, Clan Nangong bullied you the most. Are you sure you don’t want a prenatal stone or two?”

“Elder Wu Ma, the people of the South Continent have always created our own cultivation resources. We don’t like to steal from others.”

Bang!

Wu Ma tossed the jade pendent in his hand. Pointing at Elder Mu, he said, “Mu Feng, who are you calling a robber?”

“You!”

“Go and die!”

Boom!

Wu Ma exploded with rage and attacked Elder Mu.

Later that night, Elder Mu returned to the Mu Family’s house, badly injured.

Many of the Elders had watched his fight with Elder Wu Ma.

A few of the Elders had even tried to stop them from fighting.

If they hadn’t held him back, how would he have been badly injured?

“Virtual Realm Master of the South Continent, where are you? The people of the South Continent can’t hold on for much longer.”

Thud!

Looking southward into the distance, Elder Mu knelt down.

“Elder! What’s wrong?”

Hearing the voices in the yard, a young man ran out and went to help Elder Mu up.

“Ah! The people here at the Honghai Sacred Ground are so shameless. They ganged up and robbed several of the South Continent people’s houses. This time, we’re in trouble.”

Splat!

Elder Mu spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“What? They are so shameless?”

“We have no choice! There is no one in the Virtual Realm in the South Continent while Zhongzhou has eight Masters in the Virtual Realm. The only thing we are good at is creating resources. Over the years, we have accumulated a certain amount of them. That’s the only reason why we are in trouble now!” Elder Mu sighed.

“Grandpa, do we just let them bully us then?” The young man asked in despair.

“What can we do? Unless…”

“Unless what?”

“Unless there is a Master of the Virtual Realm in the South Continent who is willing to fight for us.”

Mu Feng’s eyes flashed for a moment, then became dull again.

There was someone who just reached the Virtual Realm. Would he be willing to help?

Hearing this, the young man fell further into despair.

How was that possible?

Grandpa had the highest cultivation in the South Continent.

If even Grandpa had no solution for this, they were doomed.

And if the South Continent was destroyed, how could their Mu Family maintain their status in Zhongzhou?
