"puff!--"

After everyone left, Mu Jieming suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood.

"Brother, you..."

Seeing this situation, Mu Jieqing was immediately horrified. Only now did he realize that the elder brother was bluffing just now.

"I went into the valley to look for Tian'er and was injured by a strange tree root. If I hadn't broken through to the True Element Realm a few days ago, I would have ended up there this time!" Mu Jieming said sadly.

Mu Qingtian was chosen by the sacred tree. He originally thought that their luck would last for a hundred years, but he didn't expect that such changes would happen.

"Brother, the Shenmu Martial Arts Competition will be held in three days. If Qingtian is not here, it will probably be very troublesome. Plus your situation..."

Mu Jieqing's brows furrowed.

The development of Shenmu City to this day is inextricably related to the Shenmu in the city, because it can gather the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The closer you are to the sacred tree, the more abundant the spiritual energy will be.

With the decline of the Shenmu tribe, the cultivation treasure lands around the Shenmu are no longer completely in the hands of the Shenmu tribe. Instead, the size of their respective territories is determined through the triennial Shenmu martial arts competition.

"Just take it one step at a time!"

Now Mujieming only hopes that his son can return safely, nothing else matters.

…

Demon Valley.

The wood and blue sky slowly wake up.

When he opened his eyes, a ferocious grimace came into his eyes, and this grimace was very close to him, almost touching his face.

"Ah! Who are you?"

Mu Qingtian was frightened and immediately touched the wound, grinning in pain.

Only then did he realize that he was actually being hung in the air.

After seeing his surroundings clearly, he was shocked.

This is a withered valley, and the ground is covered with decaying bones, both human and beast, like a purgatory on earth.

Besides him, the only living thing here is the monster that captured him.

His upper body is a human, but his lower body is a tree, and the endless roots are his feet.

What's even more terrifying is that the place where he took root is not the earth, but the corpse of a giant hundreds of meters long. However, the skin of this giant is purple, and two fangs that are tens of meters long poke out of his mouth.

, very scary.

"Who am I... who am I?"

The tree man seemed very confused and kept repeating this sentence.

"I remembered, I am Mu Qiankun!"

Suddenly, Shuren's eyes lit up and he finally remembered his name.

"Mu Qiankun? This is the name of our ancestor, why do you..."

Speaking of this, Mu Qingtian couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at the tree man in front of him in disbelief.

"Yes, I am Mu Qiankun of the Shenmu Clan. You have the aura of my Shenmu clone. It seems that you are my descendant!"

At this moment, the old tree man completely woke up.

Back then, he had a battle with the demon, but both sides were injured in the end and fell into this place.

The demon died on the spot, and when he was dying, he transformed into a tree man with the magical power of green wood. He fell into a lost state and survived to this day by absorbing the essence of the demon and outsiders.

If it weren't for the aura of sacred tree seeds remaining on Mu Qingtian, he might have become Mu Qiankun's food.

After communicating with Mu Qingtian, Mu Qiankun sighed deeply.

"The struggle for power is an eternal topic among intelligent races. I didn't expect that my descendants would also embark on this road of no return!"

Although Mu Qiankun's body was withered and his energy and blood were declining, his eyes were extremely profound, as if there was a world hidden inside.

"Are you willing to be treated like this?"

Mu Qiankun's eyes were deep and he looked directly at Mu Qingtian, as if he could understand his heart.

"I'm not willing to give in!"

Mu Qingtian clenched his fists, extremely angry. How could he be willing to be betrayed by the person he trusted most?

He must ask Mu Wanling face to face!

Moreover, the sacred tree seeds are the most precious treasure of the sacred trees, and he must take them back.

In addition, the great elder's lineage colluded with the Ming family and might attack his father. He must tell his father about this as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"When you and I meet, it's fate. If you want to survive, just open your heart!"

Following Mu Qiankun's ethereal voice, he and the corpse of the demon beneath him decayed at a speed visible to the naked eye, leaving behind in the end a seed emitting gleaming purple light.

Mu Qingtian did not dare to neglect, immediately relaxed his body and opened his heart.

The seed flew up as if it had a thought and merged into his Dantian.

As the seeds fused, a powerful energy began to emerge, and Mu Qingtian's broken Dantian was quickly repaired.

Feeling the power of that energy, Mu Qingtian immediately activated the Qingmu Divine Art to guide the power to circulate around the sky.

One day later, his aura suddenly surged, and endless spiritual energy from heaven and earth poured in, and he absorbed and refined every bit of it.

"Huh! I finally entered the Kaiyuan realm!"

Mu Qingtian trembled all over, and the bridge of heaven and earth instantly connected the Dantian Qi Sea and Zifu.

After the Body Tempering Realm, there is the Kaiyuan Realm, then the Qi Dynamic Realm, and the Lixin Realm. Currently, the people with the highest cultivation level in the Shenmu Clan are his father and the great elder, both of whom have perfected the Lixin Realm.

He still doesn't know that his father has broken through to the True Essence Realm.

"Thank you, ancestor, for your support. Qingtian will definitely protect the Shenmu Clan during my lifetime!"

Mu Qingtian looked at the mysterious seed, and felt extremely excited. He immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times.

Without his ancestors, he would be a useless person even if he survived.

"It's time to go back!"

Remembering that he had been away for two days, Mu Qingtian suddenly became anxious and quickly climbed up the cliff.

Without the special field formed by Mu Qiankun and Tianmo's corpse, the danger in Tianmo Valley has been lifted, and Mu Qingtian climbed out without encountering any obstacles.

When he was about to rush towards his family, there were footsteps in the woods, and he immediately ducked and hid behind a tree.

"The Demon Valley is an eternal place. How can that kid still be alive? Grandpa is really worried!"

Mu Qingshu walked out of the woods with an unhappy look on his face, followed by two henchmen.

"That's it, why don't we just let Shu Shao be the young clan leader? If we look at the younger generation of the Mu clan, who has more qualifications than Shu Shao? Mu Wanqing and Mu Qingshan were just born a little earlier!" the bastard said flatteringly.

"I just found out today that Master Shu's qualifications are so incredible that even my sister and brother from the Qingshan clan don't take him seriously!"

Mu Qingtian walked out from behind the tree and stared at Mu Qingshu coldly.

"That's not what I said, no, you...how are you still alive!"

Mu Qingshu stared at Mu Qingtian with a horrified expression, but he soon calmed down.

"Hehe, so what if you are alive, your Dantian has been destroyed by Mu Wanling. If I can kick you down once, I can kick you a second time!"

After Mu Qingshu finished speaking, he opened his big hand and slapped Mu Qingtian.

He was frightened by Mu Qingtian just now and was considered a great shame and humiliation by him. Although he was only at the ninth level of the Body Tempering Realm, it was more than enough to teach a useless person a lesson.

Snap!

The crisp voice sounded, and Mu Qingshu's lackeys breathed a sigh of relief. The book master was indeed powerful.

When they saw that Mu Qingtian was not dead just now, they were all shocked. They must know that murdering the young patriarch is a serious crime. Although they are not the main conspirators, they are enough to abandon their cultivation and expel the family.

However, before the smiles on their faces faded, a lump of fat was already thrown at them.

boom!

Mu Qingshu's huge body was really powerful, and he directly smashed his two thugs until they vomited blood.

"puff!--"

Mu Qingshu spit out two molars and looked at Mu Qingtian in disbelief.

"The seeds of your divine tree were dug out and your Dantian was destroyed. Why are you still cultivating yourself!"

Mu Qingshu's entire face was distorted. In addition to fear, he was more jealous and unwilling.

He finally waited for the opportunity. He thought he could soar into the sky and become the young leader of the Shenmu tribe. Unexpectedly, Mu Qingtian came back again.

Snap!

Mu Qingtian didn't bother to talk nonsense to him and slapped him directly.
