Chapter 213

Ye Shi lay beside Mu Chen, playing with Mu Chen's fingers with interest.

Mu Chen closed his eyes and quietly circulated his vital energy. Practicing dual cultivation with Ye Shi was truly a magical thing. It not only improved his cultivation, but also increased his soul power.

Mu Chen had consulted the classics and found that dual cultivation between partners would not produce such an effect, unless one or both of the two people practicing dual cultivation had a special physique, such as Zhuang Yu's Tianyin physique, which could enable both parties to make great progress.

Mu Chen guessed that Ye Shi's physique should also be a special one.

"Mu Chen works so hard that calluses have formed on his hands." Ye Shi said depressedly.

Mu Chen smiled and said, "Those who are capable should do more work. With Shitou by my side, no matter how hard it is, it doesn't matter."

Ye Shi smiled bitterly and said depressedly: "I can't help you much."

"How could that be? Shi Tou is very powerful. Everyone says he is a hero." Mu Chen said disapprovingly.

If Ye Shi had not been patrolling the defense line at the front and repairing the damaged formation, he would not have been able to do his own thing without any worries.

"I'm nothing." Ye Shi leaned against Mu Chen, enjoying the rare tranquility.

Mu Chen had an extremely satisfying sleep, and almost all the fatigue from the past few days was swept away. The two of them slept until noon.

When Ye Shi woke up, he was shocked to see Ri Guo.

Mu Chen was woken up by Ye Shi. He was too tired in the past few days, so he slept very soundly and forgot about time.

Ye Shi bit his lip and his face flushed. It was already this late, but no one came to find him. Obviously, everyone knew what he and Muchen were doing and deliberately didn't come to disturb them. Thinking of this, Ye Shi's face turned even redder.

"It's already this late." Mu Chen said in surprise.

Ye Shi nodded like a chick pecking at rice and said, "Yes! Let's get up quickly."

Mu Chen looked at Ye Shi's rosy face, smiled, and said, "Okay."

···············

"Finally you can afford it." Qu Kun snorted coldly and said unhappily.

As soon as Muchen and Ye Shi went out, they met Qu Kun.

Seeing the person coming, Muchen couldn't help but be surprised. He had been working hard for several days and it was rare for him to relax, but just then...

Qu Kun looked at Mu Chen with cold eyes, and it was obvious that he had a great prejudice against Mu Chen. Seeing this, Mu Chen could only rub his nose helplessly.

Ye Shi looked at Qu Kun, feeling both excited and embarrassed.

"Grandpa, why are you here?" Ye Shi asked with blinking eyes.

Qu Kun glanced at Ye Shi unhappily and said, "I can't come to see you."

Qu Kun was worried that Mu Chen and Ye Shi could not hold the defense line, so he came to check on them.

Who would have known that after the Xuanfeng Empire established the Ten Thousand Swords Killing Formation, its defense line would become more stable than the other three kingdoms. With the support of Muchen's elixirs, there were many more Martial Kings on the front line, providing more security. What was even more terrifying was that this kid Muchen actually managed to kidnap a Martial Emperor from outside.

As he walked along, all he heard were the praises of Muchen from various cultivators. In the end, his reputation was not as high as Muchen and Ye Shi. Qu Kun felt helpless but also relieved.

"Grandpa, you came here because you are worried about me! Mu Chen is very powerful, I will be fine." Ye Shi said thoughtfully.

Qu Kun snorted coldly and said, "No matter how powerful he is, he is just a Martial King."

Ye Shi puffed out his cheeks and said sullenly, "Mu Chen is not an ordinary Martial King."

Qu Kun glanced at Mu Chen coldly and said to Ye Shi, "Ask him, can he beat me?"

Ye Shi: “…”

Muchen: “…”

Ye Shi puffed out his cheeks and looked at Qu Kun with some resentment.

Qu Kun put his hands behind his back and said calmly, "So, a Martial King is a Martial King. Even the strongest Martial King is still different from a Martial Emperor."

Qu Kun narrowed his eyes and thought to himself: These two guys are making rapid progress. If he doesn't put on airs now, he might not be able to do so in the future.

Mu Chen looked at the angry Ye Shi, smiled, and said sincerely: "Shi Tou, Grandpa is right."

············

Qu Kun waved his hand and a large jar was taken out, and a strong smell of blood rushed towards him.

A strange look flashed in Ye Shi's eyes, "What a powerful monster blood!"

Qu Kun nodded. "Previously, a seven-star, six-level two-headed dragon appeared on the border of the Cang Qiong Empire. This two-headed dragon possessed wind and thunder attributes, and had severely regressed to its ancestral form. Although it was only seven stars, its strength was even greater than that of a nine-star, six-level demon beast. To kill it, various countries dispatched their emperor-level masters with seven stars or higher. I was among those invited. To kill this dragon, two martial emperors from various countries perished."

Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. It was said that Jiao dragons had the blood of the king of monsters, the dragon clan, and were more difficult to deal with than ordinary monsters. What's more, this Jiao dragon had both wind and thunder attributes. Both the wind attribute and the thunder attribute were extremely terrifying.

Ye Shi's face was a little tense, "Grandpa, how could you do such a thing? It's too dangerous."

"No matter how dangerous it is, someone has to do it." Qu Kun smiled and said. Mu Chen narrowed his eyes. Even such a monster appeared. The Canglan Line of Defense was only one of the defense lines of each country. They had encountered so many monster attacks. What was the situation of the other lines of defense...

If that dragon suddenly attacked the defense line, would they be able to stop it? The smooth sailing of the past few days had made Muchen more dismissive of the monster tide on the front line. However, the words of trapping it sounded a wake-up call for Muchen.

The reason why they are so successful now is that the real monster tide has not yet arrived.

The master of the Spirit Tower calculated that this wave of monsters would not be seen once in ten thousand years. If such a wave of monsters could be easily stopped by him and Ye Shi, the two Martial Kings, it would not be taken so seriously by other countries.

After all, his strength is still a little weak. If he were a Martial Emperor at this time, his ability to protect himself would be much higher.

"Shi Tou, I asked for this blood specially for you. The blood purification in it is comparable to dragon blood. See if it is suitable for you." Qu Kun looked at Ye Shi with kindness.

Ye Shi nodded hurriedly and said, "It's appropriate, it's appropriate."

A strange light flashed in Ye Shi's eyes. This blood was several levels higher than the sixth-level monster blood he usually used. With this monster blood, he should be able to practice the Hundred Tempering Body Technique to the purple gold wall. If he practiced to that level, even the body of a Martial Emperor would not be as strong as his own.

Qu Kun smiled and gave Ye Shi a space ring containing more than thirty jars of monster blood.

Mu Chen's soul power swept across the ring, he raised his eyebrows, and thought to himself: Qu Kun treats Ye Shi so well, he always thinks of Ye Shi in everything.

"This is for you. Don't say that I have treated you unfairly." Qu Kun threw a space ring to Mu Chen somewhat uncomfortably.

"Thank you, senior." Mu Chen found the space ring, which also contained the blood of monsters, but there were only five jars.

The blood of the two-headed dragon is also of great use to him. He can use this blood to refine the Essence Blood Pill, which is a reusable pill. With this pill, he can quickly push his cultivation to the peak of the Martial King.

"You are quite capable, you actually lured the Martial Emperor here." Qu Kun said lightly.

Although he disliked Muchen, he was actually convinced of Muchen's abilities.

"Grandpa, have you met Senior Mo? Senior Mo Feng is loyal, and I actually didn't do much." Mu Chen said with a smile.

Qu Kun narrowed his eyes and said, "Don't be so modest."

He had a good chat with Mo Feng. Qu Kun gave Mo Feng some pointers on cultivation, and Mo Feng told Qu Kun some tips on refining equipment.

Along the way, Qu Kun was almost covered in calluses from hearing all kinds of praise for Muchen. What Qu Kun didn't expect was that Mo Feng, who was usually aloof from the world, became as talkative as a gossip woman when mentioning Muchen. From Mo Feng, he learned that Muchen was also a sixth-level weapon refiner.

This news surprised Qu Kun quite a bit.

·············

"Grandpa, are you looking for me?" Mu Mingfeng asked as he walked into the courtyard.

Mu Zhan nodded and said, "Yes."

Mu Mingfeng asked with some confusion: "Is there something wrong?"

"According to a letter from Mu Chen, Ye Shi has advanced to the Purple Gold Wall, unlocked the Hundred Training Body Techniques, and obtained the map of the Jin family's secret cave." Mu Zhan said with deep eyes.

Mu Mingfeng's expression changed and he asked, "So fast?"

Mu Zhan gave a bitter smile and said, "No, it's not fast. I've heard that in the past few months, all the beast blood used for cultivation and body refining is level six beast blood. Mu Chen is very wealthy and has never been short of cultivation resources. Ye Shi, when we fought against the Wind and Thunder Two-headed Dragon before and divided the spoils, Qu Kun didn't ask for anything but the blood of the two-headed dragon. It seems that the dragon has reverted to its ancestral roots and has lost its true dragon bloodline."

"Qu Kun wants beast blood, naturally it is prepared for Ye Shi. Under such conditions, he can quickly cultivate to the Purple Gold Wall." Mu Zhan said with a smile.

Mu Mingfeng nodded, and said with understanding, "So that's how it is."

Ye Shi uses level six blood to refine his body every day, and even has dragon blood. His blessings are not comparable to the original Martial King of the Jin family. No wonder his body refining skills have progressed so fast.

"Mu Chen said in the letter that the Jin family's secret cave is in Shuangcheng. He and Ye Shi are coming back today and want you to go with them." Mu Zhan said.

A glint of light flashed in Mu Mingfeng's eyes. Before, in order to make friends with Mu Chen, he had taken the initiative to tell Mu Chen the secret of the Hundred Exercises Body Building Technique. He didn't expect that Mu Chen was so trustworthy.

"Mu Chen and Ye Shi, can you get away?" Mu Mingfeng asked.

Mu Zhan smiled and said, "It should be possible. The Taoist friends I met guarding the gate all highly praised the formation constructed by Mu Chen and Ye Shi. What's more, there is an outsider Martial King over there now."

Shan Cheng originally looked down on Mu Cheng and Ye Shiji, but now he is convinced. One can imagine how strong the two are.

Mu Zhan looked at Mu Mingfeng and said seriously, "If you meet Mu Chen and Ye Shi, don't offend them."

Mu Mingfeng nodded and said, "I understand."

He is just a martial spirit, but Mu Chen and Ye Shi are both nine-star martial kings. How dare he offend them!
