No hope for eternal life

Chapter 213 Stand firm

"Okay, all of you retreat." Hua Sheng ordered everyone. The reason why he was so obedient was because he was confident in his own cultivation. Liang Mu Changsheng, a mere Jindan realm cultivator, could not escape from his palm at all.

After everyone left, Mu Changsheng took the initiative to reveal the great secret: "About three months later, or at most four months, a medium-sized spirit stone mine will emerge at the junction of the Tiangong Sea and the Beihai Sea."

Hua Sheng's pupils shrank. He was not shocked by the mid-grade spirit stone mine. He was shocked by the meaning behind Mu Changsheng's words: "You mean, you can predict the appearance of the spirit stone mine in advance."

This was too shocking for Huasheng, because the appearance of spirit stone mines had never appeared without any signs or patterns since ancient times. He couldn't believe that what Mu Changsheng said was true.

"Yes, I have been able to sense whether there is a spirit stone mine nearby since I was a child. I have passed by the junction of the North Sea and the Tiangong Sea before, so I know that a medium-sized spirit stone mine will appear there within four months. If you don't believe it, you will see the result in four months. It won't be too late to kill me then." Mu Changsheng answered confidently.

Things like the sensing spirit stone mine were naturally made up by Mu Changsheng, but the fact that a medium-sized spirit stone mine would appear at the junction of the North Sea and the Tiangong Sea was not made up, but was actually recorded in the history of the Tianshui Realm.

What Mu Changsheng wanted to do was to rely on his knowledge of the history of the Tianshui Realm to pretend that he could sense the spirit stone mine. Once the matter of the medium-sized spirit stone mine was verified, Hua Sheng would not only be reluctant to kill him, but would even demand and provide for him in the future.

However, there is also an element of gambling in doing so, because Mu Changsheng is not sure whether the development of the illusion will strictly follow the history of the Tianshui Realm. If no medium-sized spirit stone mine appears within four months, Mu Changsheng will definitely die.

However, this is the only way Mu Changsheng can think of to break the impasse. Mu Changsheng can only take this chance, and he firmly believes that he can win.

Hua Sheng's expression changed very quickly and in a variety of ways, but he decided to trust Mu Changsheng temporarily because it was easy to verify the truth of this matter: "I will trust you once. For the next four months, you will just stay as a guest in my Hua family."

"My brother is in the Qiu family. Let my brother live with me." Mu Changsheng quickly made the request. He never forgot Mu Xun.

"Okay, it's a small matter." Hua Sheng agreed readily. This was actually a small matter. In case Mu Changsheng really had the ability to sense the spirit stone mine, Mu Xun would also be a good means of blackmail for him.

So Hua Qisheng summoned Qiu Lie again and asked Mu Xun to come over. Although Qiu Lie was somewhat reluctant, he did not dare to disobey and had to do as he was told.

In this way, Mu Changsheng and Mu Xun left the Qiu family and moved into the Hua family.

Mu Xun was at the Hua family's house, looking at the familiar surveillance guards outside the door. He didn't understand the situation for a moment, so he asked Mu Changsheng: "Why is there someone monitoring us?"

Mu Changsheng did not hide anything and immediately explained the whole story.

"Amazing." Mu Xun was so impressed that he bowed down to him. He praised: "If your prediction is successful, the two of us will have the support of the Hua family and will be able to gain a firm foothold in this fantasy world."

Mu Changsheng's eyes were dim as he asked softly, "Have you ever thought that if my prediction fails, we will both die?"

Mu Xun nodded slightly and said: "That being said, I believe your prediction will come true. Since it is a test, there will naturally be a glimmer of hope."

"That's not necessarily true." Mu Changsheng said without comment. His previous question was just a test for Mu Xun.

Although the Muxun in front of him was countless times more realistic than the fake Muxun he encountered in the first level of the illusion test, Mu Changsheng always felt that the Muxun in front of him lacked some of the charm of the real Muxun. It was an indescribable feeling.

Mu Xun seemed to sense Mu Changsheng's suspicion, and he said directly: "I know you have always doubted me, but I have the same suspicion on you. This may be the effect that Lingshan Sect wants to achieve. They have been planning this since the first level of the illusion assessment. What I want to say is that no matter what the situation is, the two of us cannot be separated, because only by working together can we have the possibility of breaking this illusion."

"I agree with this." Mu Changsheng nodded.

……

One day three months later, loud laughter was suddenly heard outside the door, and then Mu Changsheng and the others saw Hua Sheng suddenly appearing in the room.

Seeing Hua Sheng’s smug face, Mu Changsheng knew that he had made the right bet.

As expected, Hua Sheng could not hide his joy and said, "A medium-sized spirit stone mine has indeed appeared at the junction of the two regions. God bless our Hua family."

Hua Sheng's excitement is not difficult to understand, because in his opinion, with Mu Changsheng, the Tiangong Sea and all the surrounding spirit stone mines will all belong to their Hua family. With rich spirit stone resources, their Hua family will surely rise.

Mu Changsheng said calmly: "Now, Master, you should believe what I said, right?"

"I believe it, of course I do." Hua Sheng stared at Mu Changsheng with ardent eyes, and said enthusiastically: "From now on, you are the Holy Son of my Hua family. Your status in my Hua family is second only to one person and above all others. As long as you can help the family continue to search for spirit stone mines, you can tell me what you want. My Hua family will do its best to satisfy you."

"Master, you are too kind. It is a blessing for me to be able to live with the Hua family." Mu Changsheng was polite at first, and then made a request: "For the past few months, my two brothers have been locked up here and have been suffocated for a long time. Please allow my two brothers to go out for a walk and look for spirit stone mines for my Hua family."

Mu Changsheng said so much just because he wanted freedom. These days, he was either locked up in the Qiu family or in the Hua family, and he had no chance to explore this fantasy world.

When Hua Sheng heard that Mu Changsheng was going out to look for spirit stone mines for the Hua family, he naturally agreed: "No problem, but the two of you are still inexperienced in cultivation, and there may be accidents when you go out. I will arrange for a family elder to accompany you to protect your safety."

"That's great." Mu Changsheng nodded. Although he knew that the accompanying elder was here to monitor them, what Hua Sheng said made sense. In this chaotic world, the two of them in the Jindan realm really needed a strong man to protect their safety.

Moreover, Mu Changsheng has already demonstrated his value. Even if Mu Changsheng wants to die now, the Hua family probably won't agree.

Just like that, Mu Changsheng, Mu Xun and the elders of the Hua family left Huayuan Island and started their journey of exploration of this fantasy world.

Mu Changsheng stood in the air, took a deep breath, and felt refreshed. Just as Mu Xun said, with the help of the Hua family, he had completely gained a foothold in this fantasy world.

Then, Mu Changsheng instructed the elders of the Hua family, "Elder Hua Yun, we need you to use your spiritual sense to explore every place we pass. If there is any abnormality, report it to me immediately."

Hua Yun has reached the sixth level of Tribulation Realm, and his spiritual awareness has long since transformed into divine awareness. Both his detection range and accuracy are far superior to those of Mu Changsheng and the others. Naturally, Mu Changsheng will not let go of this excellent tool.

Hua Yun was Hua Sheng's confidant. He knew the importance of Mu Changsheng and did not dare to disobey the order. Instead, he asked, "Excuse me, Holy Son, what kind of situation can be considered an abnormal situation?"

Mu Changsheng hesitated for a moment, thought for a while, and then answered: "For example, some secret caves, strange objects, people with strange words and deeds, etc. For the rest, Elder Huayun can make his own judgment."
