Chapter 527: Chapter 382: Caged Bird, Wound of the Sage—Is Su Mu’s Death Predestined? (Part 2)

"No need to thank me, it’s what I should do."

At this moment, Su Mu slightly raised his eyes, looking at a map of Longxia in his hand.

"An San, based on your experience, if traveling from the war zone by high-speed rail to South China Martial Arts University in Zhejiang Province, where along the way would be the most suitable spot for an ambush?"

Upon hearing this, An San on the other end of the phone hesitated slightly, with a hint of doubt in his mind but did not delay.

"Judging by my experience, it would be the area around the border between the two provinces. Although Zhejiang Province and Guangshen Province both belong to South China, they are not the same administrative province. Give me some time, and I will provide you with a specific location."

"Alright."

After hanging up the phone, Su Mu exhaled lightly and quickly entered a state of cultivation.

"The six immortal cells in the six viscera are about to fully transform!"

"The ’Natural Secret Technique’ truly lives up to its reputation as the Rule Refining Technique. Even with the insights granted by the Thunder God, it seemed like I was about to get started before, but in reality, there’s still quite a distance to go."

"Let’s see which one of these two reaches completion first..."

Su Mu felt a faint sense of anticipation in his heart.

The next night, in the dimly lit cultivation room, the satellite phone rang. In the pitch-dark chamber, two stars suddenly twinkled. Upon closer inspection, they were not stars but a pair of deep eyes.

Then suddenly, six vast auras spread out from within Su Mu.

However, Su Mu was well-prepared. With a thought, he entered the Martial God State, and then, under the terrifying amplification of the Martial God Wheel, he completely concealed the aura with immense spiritual power.

"Perfect timing... the six immortal cells in the six viscera have finally completed their transformation!"

In just a few days, under the control of time flow speed, Su Mu had actually been cultivating for nearly half a year. With the generous contribution of the Master of Endless Black Fog, the newly born six immortal cells completed their transformation!

In the state of introspection, at this moment, the Divine Palace in the brow, the five viscera, and the six viscera were now all coated with a brilliant sheen of immortal brilliance. The twelve immortal cells connected the Sea of Consciousness, the five viscera, and the six viscera into a large whole that was resonating and vibrating. 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮

Then formed a profound and powerful cycle, with immortal power surging and roaring.

Boom!

In an instant, the immortal power that originally flowed like a trickling stream within his body suddenly surged without Su Mu needing to actively stimulate it, transforming into a rushing river.

Even the Martial God State based on immortal power was instantly elevated, and Su Mu instantly felt his already incredibly sensitive five senses in the Martial God State heightened even further, and his spiritual power surged within it.

In the Sea of Consciousness, the crystal human form was vibrating at an astonishing frequency, and the diamond’s luster grew even more brilliant!

In an instant, a brilliant light burst forth from Su Mu’s eyes.

"Even if I don’t use the Martial God State at this moment, with these newly born six immortal cells, my strength has at least doubled!"

This increase far exceeded Su Mu’s expectations. He never thought that the completion of the transformation of the immortal cells in the six viscera would trigger a qualitative change after the first quantitative change, even leading to a surge in spiritual power!

Su Mu’s breathing inevitably became a bit rapid. Even with his temperament, he needed to take a few deep breaths to calm his excited mood.

Beep beep beep.

The ringing of the satellite phone interrupted Su Mu’s thoughts, displaying an unknown number. It was from An San.

"I’ve sent you the detailed battle map... and people from the war zone and the Dark Department have already started heading there secretly. We can commence the operation at any time."

"Okay."

Responded Su Mu, dealing with smart people was effortless and highly efficient.

"Let’s begin then!"

The tone was grim and full of killing intent.

...

The next day.

After leaving the hospital room, Su Mu looked exhausted and met Zheng Qi, who was bringing food. Su Mu thought for a moment and used spiritual transmission to communicate with Zheng Qi, who quickly followed him to a secluded place.

"Book two tickets for the night train to South China Martial Arts University."

"South China Martial Arts University? But, sir, aren’t you supposed to attend the Ye family’s birthday banquet?" Zheng Qi asked, puzzled.

"That’s right, but there are still a few days until the Ye family’s birthday celebration. I plan to visit Professor Yuan on the way. He’s a friend of my teacher."

"Alright, I’ll handle it. Sir, do you need me to contact Professor Yuan at the university beforehand?"

"There’s no need to make a big deal about it, as it’s not part of the mission. Just prepare a small gift for me, and you can accompany me when the time comes. We’re leaving tonight, and you don’t need to inform my parents about this."

"Understood, sir." Zheng Qi immediately understood, and upon hearing the latter part, his face turned a bit red, evidently knowing Su Mu’s implicit meaning.

After their conversation.

Soon, a personal profile of Yuan Cheng, the deputy director of the Spirit Plant Institute at South China Martial Arts University, was purchased through dark web channels.

The daylight in winter was short, and as a cold wind blew, night fell upon the land.

Two figures quietly left the Southern War Zone in an off-road jeep from the war zone.

In the high-speed rail business carriage.

"Sir, we’re four thousand six hundred and eighteen kilometers from South China Martial Arts University, passing through twenty stations, and it will take eight hours to arrive..."

"Alright, I understand."

One hour later.

A train attendant pushed a food cart down the aisle, and Zheng Qi stood up to inquire, "Sir, would you like to eat?"

Su Mu, who was resting with his eyes closed, simply nodded.

"Then have some food."

"Sure."

Soon, Zheng Qi arrived with a high-quality meal box filled with hot Fierce Beast Flesh.

"Zheng Qi, you should get one too."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Qi paused, then smiled with joy, "Sure, sir, I also have some Imperial Capital Snow Mountain Needle from the war zone... no, from the company’s board members. I’ll make you a cup."
