Chapter 108 Longevity Mother-In-Law
"Ding, you have imparted the knowledge of spiritual medicine, triggering a 3,000 times return effect. Your comprehension has greatly increased, and your alchemy has broken through to the second grade."
"Ding, little bastard's loyalty + 10."
After teaching for two whole hours, it finally triggered the return effect.
He didn't expect that there would be a surprise. His alchemy actually broke through as well.
"Maybe I should really consider taking in a few disciples. One to teach alchemy, one to teach formations, and one to teach combat. This way, I can sit back and enjoy the fruits of others' labor …"
Zhao Mu thought happily in his heart.
However, taking in a disciple also depended on fate. He had to find a suitable seedling. Otherwise, if he taught a fool, it would be a disgrace to his reputation.
His comprehension hadn't fully increased yet, but it probably wouldn't take more than a few days. After Zhao Mu threw the Soul Formation beast meat to the little bastard, he took the Eight Desolation Li Fire Art and began to cultivate.
Little bastard was the name he gave to this little guy. This little guy contained the bloodlines of so many spirit beasts. It was an ultimate hybrid product. This name was quite suitable for it.
However, this little guy seemed to be very dissatisfied with this name.
However, seeing that there was meat to eat, it reluctantly accepted it.
For the next few days, Zhao Mu stayed in the cave and didn't go out. Every day, he took some time to teach the little bastard about the fast-growing spirit herbs. He also taught and learned at the same time.
Perhaps it was because his comprehension and alchemy had both increased, but when he was teaching, Zhao Mu's understanding of the fast-growing spirit herbs also deepened. He could somewhat understand it.
A few days later, Zhao Mu's comprehension reached the limit of the Nascent Soul realm and couldn't continue to increase.
However, his alchemy skills could still be improved, so Zhao Mu still maintained it.
The strange thing was that An Zixuan didn't send the twins over these few days, which made Zhao Mu a little uncomfortable.
However, Niu Yulan came back once during this period.
Her mother's illness was still worsening. This time, she came back to ask Zhao Mu to help her mother refine a pill.
Zhao Mu naturally wouldn't refuse. He personally went to the Medicine King Valley to find Master Fan Deng.
Fan Deng agreed readily. He used half a day to refine a cauldron of pills and asked Niu Yulan to bring it back to the Demonic Bull Clan.
Before leaving, Niu Yulan looked at Zhao Mu and pulled him to a corner. Just as Zhao Mu thought that she was going to do something with him, Niu Yulan said softly, "Husband, there's something I want to tell you."
"Why is your expression so serious all of a sudden?
Did your family arrange a marriage for you? "
Niu Yulan shook her head. "No such thing. What I want to say is that the Saint Prime Devil Sect might not be safe anymore."
"What do you mean?" Zhao Mu was slightly stunned.
Niu Yulan lowered her voice and said, "When I returned home this time, my father insisted that I stay at home and not return to the Saint Prime Devil Sect. Although he didn't tell me the specific reason, I eavesdropped on his conversation with the elders of the clan. It seems that a Supreme Being of the Monster Race is going to attack the Saint Prime Devil Sect."
"Sovereign of the Demon Race?"
Zhao Mu frowned slightly.
This was a Supreme-Being on the same level as the five Supreme-Beings of the human race, an existence that stood at the peak of the Immortal Martial Continent.
Why would a Supreme Being of the Monster Race want to attack the Saint Prime Devil Sect? Could it be related to the injury of Empress Qing Yun?
"I don't know the specific situation, and I don't know who the Supreme Being of the Monster Race is. Father and the others seem to have heard the news. But since the news has reached our Demonic Bull Clan, it must have spread within the Monster Race. I've asked around in private. Many disciples of the Monster Race clans have secretly returned to their clans. Husband, if you observe carefully, you will notice that the number of Monster Race disciples in the Saint Prime Devil Sect has decreased a lot."
Zhao Mu really didn't pay attention to this matter. After all, he had been staying in the cave to cultivate recently.
However, there's no smoke without fire. He still had to be vigilant.
Zhao Mu patted Niu Yulan's head and said, "Don't worry, I'll be careful."
Niu Yulan nodded. She took out a jade plate and handed it to Zhao Mu. "This is something I secretly brought out from the clan. It has a detailed map of the Thousand Demons Forest and a map of the distribution of the great demon clans. I also marked the location of the Demonic Bull Clan. If anything happens, husband can come to my Demonic Bull Clan to take shelter."
"Okay."
Zhao Mu felt Niu Yulan's intention and nodded as he kept the jade plate.
The Thousand Demons Forest was vast and boundless. It was definitely not easy to organize a map. This was confidential information to the big demon clans. It was impossible for it to be leaked, let alone to the human race. Niu Yulan had already taken a huge risk to steal it and give it to Zhao Mu.
Only Niu Yulan, who had a full favorability rating, could do this for Zhao Mu.
"Husband, I'll go back first. Mother is still waiting for her medicine."
Niu Yulan reluctantly said goodbye to Zhao Mu. After Zhao Mu saw her off, he did not return to his cave abode. Instead, he went straight to the Purple Heaven Cave Abode to find An Zixuan to ask about the situation.
If the Saint Prime Devil Sect was really going to face a calamity, he would have to make preparations.
However, when Zhao Mu arrived at the Purple Heaven Cave Abode, he did not see anyone.
He only saw a face. It was a granny with an old face.
Zhao Mu recognized her. She seemed to be called Granny Changshou. She was An Zixuan's only trusted aide. In the Purple Heaven Cave Abode, she was the only living person besides An Zixuan.
"Greetings, Granny Changshou."
Zhao Mu went up and greeted him politely.
Granny Changshou smiled and nodded. "If you're looking for the Saint, she went to the core sacred ground to meet the Azure Cloud Empress. I'm afraid she won't be back anytime soon."
The Saint's master went to meet the Azure Cloud Empress?
Something must have happened.
"Granny Changshou, do you know what happened?"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Don't think about what you shouldn't think. There must be a reason why the Saint Prime Devil Sect has not fallen for eight thousand years. It's not something that can be shaken. Just focus on your cultivation."
Hearing Granny Changshou's words, Zhao Mu's heart calmed down.
Indeed, as a sect that had existed for eight thousand years, how could the Saint Prime Devil Sect be shaken so easily?
He was just worrying for nothing.
"Thank you for your guidance, Granny Changshou. I understand."
Just as he was about to leave, Granny Changshou stopped Zhao Mu and said, "If you have time, go to the Path to Heaven more often and try your luck. You might gain something unexpected."
The Path to Heaven?
Zhao Mu did not quite understand why Granny Changshou would suddenly say that. However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that he should really explore the Path to Heaven again. After all, the rewards for clearing each level were very generous. With his current strength, it should not be a problem for him to clear a few more levels.
He definitely couldn't miss out on a free reward.
"Thank you for your guidance, Granny. I will take my leave now."
After leaving the Purple Heaven Cave Abode, Zhao Mu went to the Magic Array Valley and the Blood War Hall. He asked his two Masters about the current situation of the sect, but the two of them gave him a perfunctory answer. They only told him to focus on cultivation and ignore the rumors outside.
Zhao Mu agreed readily. Then, he pulled out a lot of wool.
On his way back, he happened to pass by the central square of the Inner Sanctum.
Looking at the open door of the Path to Heaven, Zhao Mu recalled Granny Changshou's words and flew towards the Path to Heaven.
