Mo Jinyu

Chapter 857: Setting Off to the Blood Sword Sect!


Mu Jinyu walked out of the room, feeling elated, ready to call Jian Ruyan and the others for a good meal, but he didn't see them around.


After thinking briefly, he guessed that they probably left to not disturb his cultivation.


"Hmm?! What's this..."


Then Mu Jinyu saw some remnants and a damaged Spirit Gathering Array outside his room.


His heart stirred, and he recalled the sudden surge of Spiritual Energy during his cultivation!


This very Spiritual Energy had enabled him to stabilize his cultivation after advancing to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm.


"Was it Wen Rou's and the others' intention?"


Thinking this, Mu Jinyu walked over to the remnants and squatted down to inspect them.


Soon after, his brows furrowed tightly.


"No, these... are all Top-Quality Spirit Stones?!"


"Wen Rou and the others shouldn't have obtained so many Top-Quality Spirit Stones, right?"


Thinking briefly, Mu Jinyu thought of Brother Yun who had lent him over a hundred Top-Quality Spirit Stones at that time.


"It must be Brother Yun."


Mu Jinyu pondered, perhaps Yun Ge felt the previous Spirit Stones might not be enough for him, so he borrowed extra Spirit Stones for him?


Without thinking further, Mu Jinyu left the courtyard, not looking for Wen Rou and the others first but heading to Courtyard No.2 nearby Yun Ge's new residence.


After gently knocking on the gate a few times, Yun Ge, who was also in seclusion to adjust his state, came out and opened the door.


"Junior Brother Mu, you're out of seclusion?"


Seeing Mu Jinyu arriving, Yun Ge asked happily.


"You didn't disappoint us; you really reached the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm!"


Yun Ge then checked Mu Jinyu's state, discovering he had broken through to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm, making his grin even wider.


Mu Jinyu smiled and nodded, thanking Yun Ge for lending the Spirit Stones, then asked if he knew what happened to the Spirit Gathering Array outside his room.


Yun Ge didn't hide, revealing the Sect Leader's generous gesture to Mu Jinyu.


However, he didn't mention that he almost got misunderstood by the Sect Leader thinking he had malicious intent towards Mu Jinyu.


After hearing this, warmth filled Mu Jinyu's heart, and he laughed, "Then I must thank Brother Yun once more. If you hadn't informed the Sect Leader, allowing him to be generous, I would have still needed a lot of time to stabilize my state even if I broke through, probably missing the Four Sects Martial Meeting."


"It's my duty."


Yun Ge had no intention of taking credit, sweeping past this topic, then said, "Since Junior Brother Mu has come out, we can set off for the Blood Sword Sect earlier. After all, only one day remains for the Four Sects Martial Meeting."


Generally, when the Four Great Sects of the Yan Kingdom hold the Four Sects Martial Meeting, the other three sects would go to the host sect a few days in advance each round.


Like this year's Four Sects Martial Meeting, Beixue Mountain Villa and Liuyun Sect, which replaced the destroyed Mingyue Valley, had already rushed to the host sect Blood Sword Sect.


The Heavenly Sword Faction should have left for the Blood Sword Sect three days ago, but they waited because Mu Jinyu, on whom they had pinned their hopes, was still in seclusion to break through to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm.


During these days, the Sect Leader and others were very anxious, deciding at one point that if Mu Jinyu did not come out by the last half day, they would leave him and take Yun Ge, Wei Ziping, and others straight there.


Fortunately, Mu Jinyu came out just in time with one day remaining.


This added to Yun Ge's joy.


"Alright, I'll pack up and head to the assembly." Follow current novᴇls on novel·


Mu Jinyu did not object, knowing he had delayed things a bit, apologetically apologized to Yun Ge.


"Mm-hmm, I'll go inform the Sect Leader," Yun Ge smiled.


They then separated, with Yun Ge going to notify the Sect Leader, and Mu Jinyu heading to gather the candidates for the Four Sects Martial Meeting and leave for the Blood Sword Sect.


Instead of heading back to pack, Mu Jinyu went down from the summit of Tianlan Peak to find Wen Rou and the others.


By "packing", he actually meant informing Wen Rou and Jian Ruyan. Leaving with Yun Ge without saying anything to Wen Rou would make her worry unnecessarily.


At the ordinary Inner Sect disciple residences halfway up the mountain, Mu Jinyu found Wen Rou and the three girls.


The three girls were delighted to see Mu Jinyu emerge, realizing he had advanced to the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm.


Even the usually solemn Jian Ruyan had a faint smile on her face.


Mu Jinyu did not chat much, informing them he would set off for the Blood Sword Sect to participate in the Four Sects Martial Meeting.


Understanding, Wen Rou nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead. I'll take care of myself."


She already knew the Four Sects Martial Meeting was imminent and had heard that if Mu Jinyu hadn't emerged in the last half day, the Sect Leader and others would have left without him.


Therefore, she harbored no complaints.


Jian Ruyan suddenly said, "I'll go with you."


"Huh?" Mu Jinyu was surprised by Jian Ruyan's words, not expecting her to want to go.


Jian Ruyan said, "The Heavenly Sword Faction is a bit dull, and cultivation is slow. The Four Sects Martial Meeting sounds interesting; I'll go with you to check it out."


"Oh, that works." Mu Jinyu understood her thoughts.


Seeing Jian Ruyan's current state, unable to fully immerse herself in cultivation, staying in the Heavenly Sword Faction seemed boring.


Nodding, Mu Jinyu turned to Wen Rou and Ji Li, "Do you want to go with us?"


Upon hearing this, fear flickered in Ji Li's eyes, and she quickly shook her head, "I... I won't go."


She knew Liuyun Sect, which had replaced the destroyed Mingyue Valley, would be attending.


Thinking of Liuyun Sect reminded her of the tragedy at Mingyue Valley, fearing she would be recognized by someone from Liuyun Sect.


Although she believed Mu Jinyu could protect her, she didn't want to bring him unnecessary trouble.


Wen Rou was slightly tempted but, seeing Ji Li's demeanor, guessed her thoughts. Considering it, she gently said, "I'll pass too. I've been in a good cultivation state lately; maybe I'll break through to the Fifth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm with some luck. I'll cheer you on here."


"Alright, stay in the upper courtyard and cultivate then."


Understanding Ji Li's fear and Wen Rou's care for Ji Li, Mu Jinyu didn't force them and agreed.


The four of them then left the small courtyard together, returning to the Tianlan Peak Summit's plaza.


By now, the Sect Leader had received Yun Ge's notification, gathering everyone selected for the Four Sects Martial Meeting, ready to depart.


"Sect Leader, apologies for my tardiness."


Mu Jinyu, accompanied by Jian Ruyan and the other three women, arrived at the plaza, apologizing.


The Sect Leader glanced at Mu Jinyu, seeing his cultivation had indeed reached the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm. His previous feelings of anxiety, unease, and regret over Mu Jinyu's delayed emergence all vanished.


He laughed heartily, waving his hand, "No worries, not too late, but we must depart soon."


When Wei Ziping saw Mu Jinyu, his previous desire to mock him vanished upon witnessing his strength had reached the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm, knowing he was no match.
