Da Xuan Martial Saint

Thoughts flashed through Chen Mu's mind. Continue your journey with My Virtual Library Empire

After carefully perceiving the changes in his strength and practicing for a while at the bottom of the cliff valley, Chen Mu finally converged his aura and began his return to the Seven Profound Sect.

He managed to avoid startling anyone on the way back and quietly returned to his bamboo hut.

His entrance into the Six Viscera Realm had been too rapid, having completed it in less than a month, which was somewhat astonishing. It was a good time to slow down and take two months to cultivate the fifth layer of the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal.

Now, with his Qiankun Artistic Conception progressing four times on the basis of the second step, cultivating the fifth layer of the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal was no longer as slow, and he was gaining experience quickly. According to his previous estimate, it would take about one to two months.

"Once the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal is cultivated to the fifth layer, that will be the time for me to descend the mountain again."

Chen Mu murmured to himself.

After four iterations of deducing the Qiankun Artistic Conception, the value of even the highest quality Artistic Conception Maps in the Seven Profound Sect had significantly diminished for him as the efficiency of gaining experience had decreased dramatically, far less than directly contemplating the heavens and earth.

Additionally, the cultivation in the Six Viscera Realm was a matter of course; if there were resources of Heaven and Earth Spiritual Items suitable for tempering the six viscera, then the pace of cultivation could be accelerated.

Furthermore,

there was another important matter—it was about time he returned to Yu County.

Since leaving Yu County to come to the Seven Profound Sect, stepping into the Qiankun Artistic Conception, entering the Six Viscera Realm, more than two years had passed. To him personally, it was a complete transformation.

Although he had received letters from Yu County and had sent replies to Xu Hongyu, Chen Yue, and others, the distance between Yu County and the State Government Office was vast, compounded by the chaotic nature of the world, making travel difficult. Martial Artists in the Tendon Changing and Bone Tempering Realm often did not dare to cross the State Government Office alone, while only those in the Five Viscera Realm could do so with relative ease.

Of course,

with his current strength and realm, it would not take long to return to Yu County.

Without the need for food or drink, and almost no need for rest, what would take a regular caravan several months, he could accomplish in at most two to three days, traveling from the State Government Office back to Yu County.

Ever since his arrival at the Seven Profound Sect, he had focused solely on cultivation, expending all his abilities to climb one step at a time, enduring over two arduous years until he finally reached a somewhat stable realm.

The top ten of the Wind Cloud List!

This level of master could undoubtedly traverse the Cold North Eleven States with ease, even defeating weaker grandmasters in battle. Only when encountering powerful beings would he need to flee; apart from the very top grandmasters like Qin Mengjun and Jiang Changsheng, others posed little threat to him.

"Speaking of which, I wonder how my master is doing. I'll go up and see him in a few days."

Thoughts rose in Chen Mu's mind as he thought of Qin Mengjun.

Although he had spent very little actual time with his master, she had indeed taken great care of him, including the Qian Heaven Seal. Even though he had yet to use it, its value was unquestionable.

Moreover, with his current level and realm, the gap between him and Qin Mengjun might no longer be as vast as heaven and earth.

Perhaps...

He could now catch a glimpse into the power of top-tier grandmasters like Qin Mengjun?

Chen Mu buried the thought in his heart, and without too much haste, continued to cultivate the fifth layer of the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal.

...

In the back mountain of the Seven Profound Sect.

Underground.

Chen Mu stood amidst a bed of thick yellow soil, scanning his surroundings with a glance. He was now far beyond the range of the Qiankun Lock Dragon Formation, and the momentum of the earth's veins did not affect the sect's gates.

Standing alone underground, he brought his hands together slowly and began the initial stance of the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal, following which streams of the Power of Heaven and Earth began to converge around him, forcibly expanding and repelling the solid earth, creating an underground void.

Massive surges of the Power of Heaven and Earth were drawn towards him.

This power turned into several Cycle Marks, coalescing above his head into a complete Qiankun Seal, but the process did not stop there. As Chen Mu's right hand lifted, the Yuan Gang Force within him also surged forth, dispersing into the Void, evolving into the Eight Phases cycle, forming a second Qiankun Seal.

Then, as his hands came together, the two Qiankun Seals merged, concentrating formidable power into a single point.

Boom!!

The union of the two opposing Qiankun Seals was struck upwards by Chen Mu in an instant, causing the earth's veins to tremble violently. The thick soil above disintegrated and dispersed, spreading upward until it penetrated nearly forty zhang deep of yellow earth, reaching the surface above!

One could see the dirt erupt and the ground open up with a fist-sized mark that extended over forty zhang deep underground, creating a sleek, vertical tunnel.

"As expected of the fifth layer of the Heaven and Earth Wheel Seal, infusing my own Yuan Gang True Qi into it, such a tremendous force can be concentrated within the Fist Seal, penetrating over forty zhang without any diffusion."

Chen Mu looked up at the straight hole the size of a fist, his eyes revealing a glint of light.

The terrifying might of this level, far more than double what it was when he first mastered the Qiankun Artistic Conception!

A single strike.

Would have been enough to obliterate him from that time on the spot!

If he now faced Zuo Qianqiu wielding the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Diagram, he would not need to exert much effort; a casual blow would be enough to exterminate all its Sword Qi and even crush Zuo Qianqiu himself to obliteration!
