Chapter 217 Self-doubt
Chapter 217 Self-doubt
Hua Yun’s idea was very simple. Mu Changsheng could do whatever he wanted within the Tiangong Sea, but not outside the Tiangong Sea.
Mu Changsheng knew that Hua Yun would stop him, so he immediately brought out the prepared words: "I have already visited the Tiangong Sea Area, but I have not found any spirit stone mines. I went to the outer area to look for spirit stone mines."
Hua Yun hesitated for a moment, then said: "Holy Son, please wait a moment. I cannot make the decision on this matter. I can only report it to the Patriarch."
Soon, Hua Yun contacted Hua Sheng through his clone, and Hua Sheng conveyed the order through Hua Yun: "You can leave the Tiangong Sea, but you can only go to the nearby Kuroshio Sea and Huangxuan Sea, not to the Beihai Sea."
"No problem." Mu Changsheng agreed immediately. He knew that Huasheng was worried about his safety.
There are differences among the thirteen seas in the Tianshui Realm. Among them, the five seas of East, South, West, North and Central are the core, and they are all the sphere of influence of Emperor Tianshui. The Hua family has no say in front of Emperor Tianshui. The Kuroshio Sea and Huangxuan Sea are about the same size as the Tiangong Sea, and the Hua family still has some influence there.
Mu Changsheng’s idea is to explore the small sea area first, and then try to enter the five major sea areas if it doesn’t work.
If the time really comes when he has to enter the five major seas, Mu Changsheng should have already broken through to the Spirit Transformation Realm, and he can still find a way to escape from the Hua family.
So, Mu Changsheng and his party stepped out of the Tiangong Sea for the first time and entered the nearest Kuroshio Sea area.
Mu Changsheng started exploring as soon as he arrived, but when he stepped onto the first island in the Kuroshio Sea, he was in trouble.
Because according to past practice, one must help when seeing injustice, but this is no longer the Hua family's territory. If they act casually, it will easily attract the attention of other forces.
So Mu Changsheng was a little hesitant, facing the evil man, whether to kill him or not. And at this moment, in front of Mu Changsheng was a local snake who had committed many evil deeds, kneeling and begging for mercy.
As if seeing Mu Changsheng's hesitation, Mu Xun persuaded him: "We must kill him, otherwise we might miss the clue without knowing it, and we hide our identities, so even if we kill someone, no one will know that we killed him. If you can't do it, I'll do it."
Upon hearing this, Mu Changsheng no longer hesitated and killed the bully with one punch, which drew cheers from the surrounding island residents.
After killing the man, Mu Changsheng checked the bully's storage bag as usual to see if there were any clues to break the illusion.
The result was that nothing was found, but Mu Changsheng had gotten used to it over the years, so he wasn't that frustrated.
Afterwards, Mu Changsheng and his group left the island and continued to explore the sea.
Not long after, Mu Changsheng set foot on the second island, but the scene on this island was extremely horrifying.
There were corpses everywhere and blood flowing like a river, and the cause of death for each corpse was extremely tragic. It was really horrible to watch!
Mu Changsheng's face looked extremely ugly. Even though he had been doing justice for so many years and had seen all kinds of perverted bullies, he had never seen such a scene.
"What's the situation on this island?" Mu Changsheng asked Hua Yun.
"There are five rich young men who are killing people for fun on this island. One of them seems to be from the An family." Hua Yun replied, emphasizing the An family, because the An family is the overlord of the Kuroshio Sea, similar to the Hua family in the Tiangong Sea.
"What are their cultivation levels?" Mu Changsheng asked again.
"Except for one guard who is at the Spirit Transformation Realm, the highest of the rest is no more than the Nascent Soul Realm." Hua Yun answered truthfully.
"Leave the Spiritual Transformation Realm guards to you, and leave the rest to us." Mu Changsheng gave the order directly.
Hua Yun said with worry: "I'm afraid this is not appropriate. If we kill someone from the An family on their territory, it will be difficult for us to explain if we are discovered."
"Instead of worrying about these, you might as well think about how to get rid of the other party cleanly and neatly without being discovered." Mu Changsheng said coldly. He was determined to kill these people, not only for the sake of justice, but also to find clues to break the illusion. Moreover, this was the first time he encountered such a situation. Maybe there really were clues here.
"Okay then." Hua Yun said helplessly. In his eyes, Mu Changsheng was a man who was stubborn in upholding justice. He couldn't stop him. He could only try his best to clean up Mu Changsheng's mess and prevent any future troubles.
So, Mu Changsheng and his group rushed to the scene and saw corpses all over the ground. The five rich young men were killing happily, as if they were competing to see who could kill faster.
The appearance of Mu Changsheng and his two companions immediately attracted the attention of the guards of the wealthy young men, but before he could speak or take action, he had already been dealt with by Hua Yun.
Then, Mu Changsheng and Mu Xun immediately pounced on the five wealthy young men and stopped their murderous steps.
Those who kill will be killed. In an instant, four young men from wealthy families were killed by Mu Changsheng and his two companions.
The last one, who was suspected to be the son of the wealthy An family, shouted frantically: "You can't kill me, my father is..."
"Crack." A flash of sword light flashed, and Mu Xun didn't even give the other party a chance to continue speaking, and the person's head was separated.
Afterwards, Mu Changsheng and the other person quickly searched the storage bags of several people and checked them, but in the end they did not find anything special.
Mu Changsheng originally thought that this time he would have a good chance, but now he was instantly doubly disappointed. He couldn't help but doubt himself: "Could it be that this path is wrong? What exactly is the Lingshan Sect's illusionary assessment testing? There isn't even a standard."
At the same time, in the center of the Kuroshio Sea, on the main island of the An family, a terrifying roar was heard: "Whoever killed my child, I, An Xuan, will never stop fighting him to the death."
Then, An Xuan's figure flew into the sky and headed straight for the island where Mu Changsheng and others were.
Children of large families would leave a soul lamp at home. The soul lamp could be used to sense the life or death of its owner, as well as guide the owner's direction. It was in this way that An Hyun located the island where the incident occurred.
However, when Ahn Hyun arrived, the entire island was already deserted.
"Ahhh, this matter is not over yet, I must find the murderer who killed my son." An Xuan roared in anger, and huge waves rose up in the surrounding sea, showing his extraordinary cultivation.
At this time, Mu Changsheng and the other two, who were regarded as enemies by An Xuan, had arrived at the other end of the Kuroshio Sea. In order to prevent the An family from tracking them, they deliberately changed direction to explore the Kuroshio Sea.
……
Eight years passed in peace. Mu Changsheng explored the entire Kuroshio Sea, but the result was the same as that of the Tiangong Sea, still no clues.
This made Mu Changsheng fall into deep self-doubt, and he felt more and more that exploring the Tianshui Realm seemed to be a dead end.
You have to know that Mu Changsheng is only nineteen years old in reality, but he has spent more than twenty years in this fantasy. This split life experience almost makes him unable to tell which side is reality.
When he first started exploring the Tianshui Realm, Mu Changsheng made the bold statement that if thirty years didn't work, then a hundred years would do. However, only after actually experiencing it did he realize how difficult it was.
"Do you have any ideas?" Mu Changsheng asked Xiang Muxun.
"No, I still think that exploring the Tianshui Realm is the best way. Since the Kuroshio Sea doesn't work, then let's go to the Huangxuan Sea, one after another. I don't believe that the Lingshan Sect didn't leave any clues in the illusion." Mu Xun said firmly.
"Okay, let's continue." Mu Changsheng was shocked, and Mu Xun's words gave him some encouragement.
"But before that, we have to go back to the Hua family. It's time to break through to the Spirit Transformation Realm." Mu Changsheng suggested. They have been staying at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm for the past eight years, and their accumulation is enough.
