No hope for eternal life

Mu Changsheng was naturally overjoyed about this: "To get started within three days means you have talent, and I succeeded in less than half a day."

Such success brought Mu Changsheng great confidence and further strengthened his yearning and pursuit for the art of talismans.

At this moment, there was a knock on Mu Changsheng's door: "Changsheng, I'm back."

Mu Changsheng recognized that it was the voice of his father Mu Yanggu and quickly stood up. He had been thinking about the spiritual object he asked his father to buy. After all, it was related to the cultivation of the secret art of the nine transformations of the physical body.

Mu Changsheng opened the door and saw Mu Yanggu, who looked haggard outside. He knew in his heart that his father must have run back with all his might.

"Here, the spiritual item you need." Mu Yanggu excitedly handed Mu Changsheng a storage bag, not caring about his own fatigue at all.

Mu Changsheng opened the storage bag and saw that in addition to various spiritual objects, there were also dozens of medium-grade spirit stones. He thought that they were what was left after he used one thousand medium-grade spirit stones to buy spiritual objects.

Mu Changsheng quickly took out the mid-grade spirit stones, handed them to Mu Yanggu and said, "Dad, if you want to break through to the Golden Core Realm, you will definitely need spirit stones. Just take these and use them."

Unexpectedly, Mu Yanggu resolutely refused to accept it and said seriously: "These spirit stones are lent to you by Mr. Yang for cultivation. How can I accept them? You must make good use of them and don't let Mr. Yang down."

"Dad, I still have spirit stones here." Mu Changsheng was also determined to hand the spirit stones to Mu Yanggu.

Mu Yanggu patted Mu Changsheng on the shoulder and said earnestly: "It is enough for you to be filial, but you must listen to me. Moreover, I still have the spirit stones returned from the special foundation-building pill, plus the Jindan and my accumulation over the years, which are enough for me to break through to the Jindan realm."

Mu Changsheng felt quite helpless when he heard this, but he knew his father's temper well. If he forced it on his father, his father would not take it, so he could only take back the spirit stone.

Seeing Mu Changsheng taking back the spirit stone, Mu Yanggu nodded with satisfaction and said again: "Now that you have the spirit object, you must practice the secret technique diligently and don't let Mr. Yang down."

"I understand." Mu Changsheng agreed. He had just completed the introduction to talismans and it was time for him to practice the secret technique of the nine transformations of the physical body that he had longed for.

"You should practice well. I'm leaving first." Mu Yanggu turned and left. He knew that Mu Changsheng had been sensible since he was a child, so he felt more at ease.

Afterwards, Mu Changsheng prepared a large bucket of water in the room and began to put various spiritual objects bought by his father into the water.

First-grade water snake monster heart blood, first-grade golden tea medicinal core, second-grade blue-eyed monster essence blood, second-grade mountain spirit nectar...

This is the method of practicing the secret art of the nine transformations of the physical body, cleansing through medicinal bath!

After all the spiritual objects were put in, Mu Changsheng sat naked in the medicine barrel.

As soon as he entered the medicine barrel, Mu Changsheng felt unwell all over, as if countless needles were pricking his skin. It was itchy, painful and uncomfortable, but Mu Changsheng knew that this was a necessary process to practice the secret art of the Nine Transformations of the Physical Body, and he had to persevere no matter how uncomfortable it was.

At the same time, this is also a transformation of the physical body. The first of the nine transformations of the physical body is the bronze skin transformation, and what is being cultivated is his skin. When it comes to the second transformation - the iron bone transformation, when he tempers his own bones, the pain will be more intense than now.

Mu Changsheng spent about half an hour to finally get used to the tingling sensation, and then began to practice while soaking in the medicinal bath, refining his spiritual power to the peak of Qi Refining. He has not yet completed the first round of refining.

"Realm is the foundation. I have to break through to the Foundation Establishment Realm as soon as possible." Mu Changsheng said in his heart, not forgetting Yang Wuque's instructions.

Some are happy while others are sad. Just when Mu Changsheng was practicing with all his might, Mu Xun next door was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Even though he had been swinging the hammer all day, he was already extremely exhausted.

Mu Xun remembered what the women said during the day. If they said that Yang Wuque came to the town to teach just for the spiritual mine in the barren mountain, he would never believe it even if he was beaten to death.

In addition, Mu Xun also knew that Mu Changsheng liked to run to the barren mountains since he was a child. In addition, he saw with his own eyes that Mu Changsheng bought so many pills in Nansha City. It would be no problem to say that those spirit stones came from Yang Wuque. However, he felt that with Yang Wuque's style, he should not give spirit stones to Mu Changsheng for no reason.

Putting this information together, Mu Xun gradually came up with a surprising guess in his mind, that is, the spiritual mine on the barren mountain was not discovered by Yang Wuque, but by Mu Changsheng. And after discovering the spiritual mine, Mu Changsheng asked Yang Wuque for help, which led to the closer relationship between the two.

It was this conjecture that made Mu Xun unable to sleep. From childhood to adulthood, he had always been superior to Mu Changsheng in cultivation. Now that Mu Changsheng had spiritual mines as cultivation resources, his cultivation would probably surpass his soon. This was hard for him to accept.

In the end, Mu Xun simply stopped trying to fall asleep and started meditating and practicing.

During the day on the second day, Mu Changsheng walked out of the medicine barrel only after the medicinal power in the medicine barrel was completely exhausted. At the same time, the color of his skin all over his body changed slightly, becoming a bronze color.

After a night of medicinal bathing, Mu Changsheng officially entered the ninth stage of physical transformation and reached the level of copper skin becoming smaller.

However, the so-called copper skin becoming smaller can probably only be used to deal with a little kid in the early stage of Qi Refining. For Mu Changsheng at present, it will not be of any help for the time being. The ninth transformation of the physical body is destined to be a long process.

Mu Changsheng was very satisfied with this. He could refine his body by taking a medicinal bubble bath. The Nine Transformations of the Physical Body were indeed very simple and much better than those fancy secret techniques.

After putting on his clothes, Mu Changsheng walked out of the room. It was almost time for class, so he chose a talisman and reported to Yang Wuque.

Mu Changsheng walked out of the house and saw that the sword-making shop next door had already started working. Mu Changsheng also saw Mu Xun swinging a hammer, so he took the initiative to invite him and said, "Mu Xun, go to class."

In the sword-making shop, Mu Qun first took the sledgehammer from Mu Xun and said calmly, "Go ahead."

Mu Xun remained silent, walked out of the shop quietly and went to class with Mu Changsheng.

On the way, Mu Changsheng asked with concern: "You don't look very energetic, did you not get enough rest?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Xun glanced at Mu Changsheng but still said nothing.

Mu Changsheng shrugged helplessly when he saw this, but fortunately he had long been accustomed to Mu Xun's strange temper.

After arriving at the classroom, Mu Changsheng immediately discovered that more than half of the students were missing.

Until the class officially started, the number of students did not increase much, and only eleven students came to class today.

"It must be due to the influence of rumors." Mu Changsheng shook his head secretly. At the same time, he also knew that Yang Wuque had taken the blame for the rumors for him.

Yang Wuque on the podium was not affected at all and continued to teach normally as usual.

After the class was over, Mu Changsheng stayed behind and waited for the others to leave. Mu Xun, who was standing by, glanced at Mu Changsheng again and left in silence.

After the others had left, Yang Wuque took the initiative to step forward and ask, "Have you chosen another secret technique?"

Mu Changsheng bowed and said, "Sir, I want to practice talismans."

"The way of talismans?" Yang Wuque was extremely surprised when he heard this, because his previous way of cultivation was the way of body training and talismans.

After a long while, Yang Wuque calmly asked: "Have you tried to practice the entry-level talismans?"

"The student practiced for most of the night yesterday and has already gotten the hang of it." Mu Changsheng answered truthfully.

"What, you have already got started?" Yang Wuque lost his composure for the first time. This was too surprising to him. Normally, even with the guidance of a famous teacher, it would be good enough to get started within three days. However, Mu Changsheng was completely self-taught, and he got started in less than half a day.
