Chapter 405: Breaking Through to the Nascent Soul Realm, Five-Man Exploration Team!

The unforeseen event of the underground auction caused a commotion for a long time. The law enforcement team of the market city almost searched every house. The Nascent Soul Stage Grandmaster MO Tianren even went all out and used his divine sense to investigate the entire Eastern State’s market city.
Then, Shopkeeper Lin’s shop was discovered to be abnormal. The law enforcement team broke into Shopkeeper Lin’s shop and actually discovered a large number of corpses and stolen goods in his shop. In the end, through various auras, they confirmed that Shopkeeper Lin was the mastermind behind this underground auction.
At this point, the unforeseen event of the underground auction was revealed, but in the end, the winner, Mu Xuan, couldn’t be discovered no matter how many methods the Skycracker used. In the end, the matter was left unsettled.
In the next few years, the popularity of the entire Eastern State’s market was very low. More than half of the hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators were chased out of the market, and many people died because of this…
It was not until ten years later that the Eastern State’s market recovered and regained its popularity.
Spring passed and autumn came. Flowers bloomed and fell. Thirty years had passed, and Mu Xuan’s cultivation level had reached the perfected Core
Formation realm. He was only a step away from the Nascent Soul realm!
This step stopped countless geniuses and heroes, causing countless bloodshed.
Mu Xuan was not in a hurry at all. He cultivated step by step. He prepared to try to break through first. If it didn’t work, he would look for the Nascent Formation Pill.
The Nascent Formation Pill was the most expensive medicinal pill in the cultivation world of the Great Jin. One pill cost tens of millions of spirit stones, and it was priceless.
If not for the unforeseen event at the last underground auction, Mu Xuan would have even needed to spend decades to obtain such a large number of spirit stones.
Condensing a Nascent Soul was a big matter. Mu Xuan wasn’t prepared to choose to do it in the Eastern State’s market, because this would easily make that person in the sky suspect him.
Mu Xuan decided to transfer the shop away. The reason was that he wanted to return to his hometown, so Mu Xuan’s Hundred Medicine Hall, which had been open for decades, closed.
Mu Xuan didn’t go to the Jin Capital. As an immortal cultivator, Mu Xuan would never go to the Jin Capital without absolute strength.
He continued south. In the end, in the Big Ba Mountain Range of Yan State, Mu Xuan found a spirit cave that grew on a medium-sized spirit vein. The concentration of spirit energy in the spirit cave was extremely high, comparable to a large spirit vein. It was very suitable for Mu Xuan to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.
Mu Xuan decisively occupied this place and set up many array formations. After patiently adjusting for seven to eight years, he finally began to break through to the Nascent Soul realm for the first time!
It was very difficult to break through to the Nascent Soul realm. It required extremely high true energy control, divine sense control, and so on. It also required a large amount of spiritual energy and resources. Out of a hundred peak Core Formation cultivators, only three to five would probably succeed.
Mu Xuan charged at the Nascent Soul realm step by step. A vast amount of spirit energy was attracted over, forming a spirit energy vortex.
Fortunately, Mu Xuan had long made full preparations. In the depths of the Ba Mountain Range, there were very few people and cultivators. The possibility of being disturbed was not high. In addition, Mu Xuan had also set up several array formations. Even Nascent Soul cultivators would need some time to break through.
However, Mu Xuan never expected that at this moment, a cultivator team happened to arrive outside the Ba Mountain Range. This was an exploration team, and the leader was Ning Shuhang, a peak Core Formation cultivator.
Ning Shuhang was born as an independent cultivator. He relied on his luck to step into the cultivation world. Along the way, he bumped into many obstacles and finally succeeded in forming his core in 200 years. This time, he accidentally obtained a Nascent Soul cultivator’s cave abode, so he invited his four good friends to explore Mount Ba.
They never expected to discover the huge spirit qi vortex in the sky as soon as they arrived.
Ning Shuhang, who was the oldest, said in surprise, “Could it be that a spirit treasure has appeared?!”
Among the five of them, the only female cultivator, Yu Roujin, was from a cultivation family. She shook her head and said, “This doesn’t look like a spirit treasure is born, but like…
“A cultivator is trying to break through to the Nascent Soul realm!” Another person added. He looked at the spiritual qi vortex with passion. “If this person fails to break through to the Nascent Soul realm and even dies, won’t his assets be ours?!”
This person’s name was Du Yanshuang. In the early years, he was once a
member of the horse bandits. Later on, although he was lucky enough to step into the immortal cultivation realm, he still did things unscrupulously. If not for Du Yanshuang’s powerful array-breaking skills, Ning Shuhang wouldn’t have invited him.
At this moment, anyone with discerning eyes could tell what Du Yanshuang meant. He wanted to take the opportunity to destroy the other party’s attempt to break through to the Nascent Soul realm and let the other party die directly, reaping the benefits!
This move could be said to be extremely vicious, making it difficult for the other four to make a decision.
Then, Du Yanshuang chuckled softly and said, “Don’t you want the wealth of this cultivator?!”
Some people could withstand such temptation, but others were tempted.
Du Yanshuang and the mid-stage Core Formation cultivator called Lan Jingming decided to attack and destroy the other party’s array formation, causing the other party to fail to break through to the Nascent Soul realm. They even planned to directly kill the other party.
As for Ning Shuhang and the remaining two, they were not tempted. This was because destroying others to break through to the Nascent Soul realm would definitely cause future trouble. If their minds were damaged, they might have inner demons born when they broke through to the Nascent Soul realm in the future.
“Uncle Ning, are they really fine like this?” Yu Roujin looked at Du Yanshuang and the other man who were rushing towards the center of the Essence Energy vortex and asked in a low voice.
Ning Shuhang shook his head and said in a low voice, “Little Yu, you have to remember that it’s best not to do anything outrageous because we’re not demonic cultivators. Our mental states will definitely be damaged. When we break through to the Nascent Soul realm ourselves, our inner demons will probably be very powerful!”
“Du Yangshuang’s actions seem to have benefited him. He will definitely pay the price in the future…”
Yu Roujin nodded slightly. Among the people present, her cultivation level was the lowest and she was the youngest, but her future achievements were the greatest.
At this moment, the person who had been silent suddenly said, “They attacked!”
Yu Roujin looked up and indeed saw that Du Yanshuang and the other party had already attacked. Then, not long after, the entire spirit qi vortex began to become unstable and dissipated. It was a pity.
“I failed…” Yu Roujin sighed.
However, in the next moment, a furious roar filled with intelligence came from afar. “How bold. You actually destroyed my Nascent Formation. Damn it!”
In the next moment, a dazzling golden light instantly pierced out. Then, Yu Roujin and the other two heard two screams, and the auras of Du Yanshuang and the other two instantly disappeared.
In an instant, Ning Shuhang and the other two looked at each other, and a chill rose from their backs. Du Yanshuang and the other two had actually died in such a short period of time? The other party was actually so powerful?!
As expected, not long after, a young figure rushed out of the cave abode and headed straight for Ning Shuhang and the other two.
At this moment, Ning Shuhang felt a little regretful. He should have stopped Du Yanshuang and the other man from going…
Mu Xuan was very angry. He had failed to form his Nascent Soul. Although a large part of the reason was because of the level of his cultivation method, Du Yangshuang and the other party also greatly affected.
This debt naturally needed to be settled by the three people in front of him!
“Tell me, how should I resolve this matter?!” Mu Xuan looked coldly at Ning Shuhang and the other two and said.
Ning Shuhang and the other two immediately fell silent. It was obviously impossible for this matter to have nothing to do with them, but it actually didn’t have much to do with them.
However, the problem was that the other party’s aura was unfathomable.. The three of them… couldn’t defeat him..
