Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age

The shadows of the trees swayed!

The morning light was barely white!

Xu Mu’s figure was like lightning, traveling at high speed through the forest.

An enormous python, perfectly camouflaged among the branches and leaves, shot out its mouth at the moment Xu Mu passed by.

Swish!

The sword in Xu Mu’s hand flashed like a red thunderbolt, instantly slashing through the snake’s body.

Instantly, the python’s body was severed, blood spray everywhere, and with a thud, it fell to the ground.

The snake’s body writhed and rolled, scattering the fallen leaves on the ground.

Xu Mu didn’t pause at all, continuing his journey forward.

He was looking for a tier three monster beast. The python was only a tier one beast, filled with too little energy.

The peculiar behavior of the wolf earlier had made him uneasy, so he decided to try and quickly kill enough monster beasts to gather the resources necessary for a breakthrough.

Good luck!

While on his way, a white thread shot forth from the dark spot, and Xu Mu swiftly dodged out of the way. Looking up, he saw a green-haired spider larger than a grindstone.

From the aura emanating from the green-haired spider, there was no doubt it was a tier three monster beast.

“This big one should be enough!”

Xu Mu murmured.

Like lightning, he dodged the spider webs the green-haired spider spat out while rushing towards the spider.

Perceiving that it couldn’t hit Xu Mu, the green-haired spider gave up, turned around, spat out a web and anchored it onto a tree in the distance. Its eight legs exerted force simultaneously, leaping up abruptly and escaped rapidly with the help of the attached web strand.

But how would Xu Mu give it the chance?

With one hand forming a sign, a fire dragon surged out in an instant, biting towards the back leg of the green-haired spider.

Fizzle!

The green-haired spider attempted to dodge in mid-air.

Xu Mu’s aura oscillated, and he suddenly accelerated.

A heated aura radiated from the crimson sword in his hand.

Thunderbolt Sword Skill – Rushing Thunder Style!

In the split second the green-haired spider failed to react, Xu Mu cut right through its abdomen.

Hiss!

The green-haired spider issued a hissing sound, wanting to leap and escape once more. Its internal organs mixed with green blood oozed onto the ground from its belly. It struggled for a few steps before collapsing onto the ground.

Xu Mu walked forward and finished it off with another slash on its head.

After discarding all the internal organs and some of the inedible parts.

Puh! Red flames radiated from Xu Mu’s hand, swiftly enveloping the entire green-haired spider.

Soon, the smell of cooked meat filled the air!

The originally green-haired spider soon turned into an appealing red color due to the roasting, making it look extremely appetizing.

Xu Mu cut it up and kept it in his storage bag, eating as he walked.

Too lazy to peel the shell, he directly put it in his mouth to chew.

He has excellent teeth, and the hard shell became a fragrant, crispy treat in his mouth.

Crunchy, tastes like chicken!

When he couldn’t fit any more food in his stomach, he pulled out the system and added a point to the Thunderbolt Sword Skill.

By the time he returned to the cave, the Thunderbolt Sword Skill had reached the Grandmaster level; 1599/1600.

Seeing Xu Mu’s return, the tightly wound nerves of the others eased.

Indeed, with Xu Mu’s strength, he could easily leave on his own.

He couldn’t do anything about that wolf, and likewise, the wolf couldn’t do anything to him. If not for the burden of the others, leaving would be easy for him.

However, how could he possibly abandon his wife and children?

If he didn’t have a wife and kids, he might have considered it.

Upon entering the cave, Xu Mu wasted no words, but directly took out a dark red Ganoderma lucidum and ate it.

This was a five hundred years old Blood Ganoderma that he found in the nest of a monster beast he had killed on the way.

Most monster beasts have a habit of collecting spiritual medicine, hoping to use them as a supplement when advancing through levels.

Like the green-haired spider he just killed, if he had followed it back to its den, he might have been able to find some rewards as well.

In addition to this Blood Ganoderma, there was also a two hundred years old wild ginseng, both of which were spiritual medicines that nourished vitality.

Xu Mu also took out the wild ginseng and placed it beside him, just in case.

In addition, he also took out all the Fasting Pills.

Even after preparing all these, he still felt uneasy, but there was no more time for him to prepare more.

Xu Mu called out the system and started adding points.

[Thunderbolt Sword Skill +1]!

[Thunderbolt Sword Skill Grandmaster; 0/3200]!

With the breakthrough of the realm, the Blood Ganoderma that he had just eaten was quickly digested, and Xu Mu hurriedly ate the two hundred years old wild ginseng.

The hunger in his stomach finally eased, and his body began to transform rapidly.

Rumble!

All the blood in his body, like rivers and streams, surged, and his heart went from slow to fast, throbbing wildly.

The others in the cave just felt like Xu Mu’s chest was hiding a war drum, constantly beating.

The drumming was so loud that it seemed to shake the entire mountain.

The people in the cave only felt the drumming in their ears, and their blood began to boil.

Get out quickly!

Seeing that Ye Yingying was dizzy and about to lose balance, Lan Shijin quickly reacted, promptly activated the formation, and led everyone out of the cave.

It was nearly half an hour before the sound of the heartbeat in the cave gradually faded away.

Lan Shijin had everyone stay outside, and she carefully went in to check for herself.

However, she quickly came out again, her face slightly red.

“Sister Lan, how is my husband?” Ye Yingying asked anxiously.

“No, no, it’s nothing!”

Lan Shijin did not know what to say.

When she entered, Xu Mu was cleansing the impurities produced after marrow washing. Although nothing critical was exposed, it still made her blush.

Not long after, a rejuvenated Xu Mu emerged from the cave.

He now had a bald head, no eyebrows, even all the hair on his body fell off, making him totally hairless.

His pair of eyes was deep as a bottomless abyss, captivating at first glance.

Xu Mu moved his mouth to speak, but instead spat out several teeth, white as jade.

Only then did everyone realise that all of Xu Mu’s teeth had fallen out.

Husband, are… are you alright?”

Ye Yingying questioned with a face full of worry.

Friend Xu, are you well?”

The others also asked with concern.

Little Ling’er, who was being held by Leng Yuening, had her large eyes rolling around, as if seeing Xu Mu for the first time.

Her little nose twitched as she tried to pull Leng Yuening closer to Xu Mu.

When Xu Mu reached out to touch her, she began to gnaw on his finger.

Because she smelled a refreshing scent from Xu Mu that made her quite comfortable.

Xu Mu pinched her little nose and withdrew his finger, smiling and saying, “I’m fine! I just broke through, and my body underwent a minor transformation! I’ll be fine soon!”

He touched his shiny bald head.

The next moment, a miraculous thing happened!

From the smooth bald head, fine fuzz rapidly sprouted. In a few moments, it grew to half an inch long, turning dark and dense.

At the same time, his eyebrows also grew out.

When he opened his mouth, small baby teeth had already sprung up from his previously empty gums and were still growing.

The scene before them dumbfounded everyone.

Although cultivators have various remarkable abilities, they had never encountered someone with the ability to control the growth of hair and teeth before.

If they were to count Xu Mu’s teeth carefully now, they would find exactly forty-four, much more than an average person.

This is a sign of successful Body Refinement, only attainable at the blood-rejuvenation stage.

Using the power of the system and spiritual medicine, Xu Mu had crossed this threshold and achieved blood-rejuvenation.

His blood flowed like mercury, renewing his body and granting him boundless strength. His explosive power was now several times that of the marrow cleansing stage.

The sturdy Xuan Iron Sword felt like mud in his hands.

Moreover, he gained the ability to control heart contractions. By stimulating his heart in a short period, it led to high-intensity strength bursts.

Originally, Xu Mu was only seventy percent sure he could defeat the Green Wolf after his breakthrough. Now, with the ability to control his heart, he had at least a ninety percent chance of killing the Green Wolf.

Simultaneously, his lifespan had also increased significantly.

The system interface now displayed:

“Wait here for me!”

“After I kill that beast, we’ll leave!”

He had not spent this entire time being beaten passively.

He had already found the hideout of the Green Wolf.

Xu Mu’s foot tapped the ground, disappeared before everyone’s eyes in a few flashes.

Can Friend Xu handle it?”

Watching the departing Xu Mu, Zhang Shouren expressed his concerns.

That’s a Foundation Establishment Stage monster beast!

If my husband says he can do it, then he can do it!”

Ye Yingying firmly believed in Xu Mu.

Besides trusting Friend Xu, we have no other options!”

Lan Shijin’s gaze flickered slightly.

If she had not seen wrongly just now, Xu Mu seemed to have become much younger.

That was truly enviable!

Perhaps…

She looked at her daughter.

If he could kill a tier four monster beast, he should have reached Foundation Establishment, right?
