Chapter 8: New Abilities of the Samsara Seal

After breaking through to the fifth level of body tempering, Mu Zi felt that both his physical strength and power were incomparable to the fourth level.

However, the sixth level of body tempering is a watershed. After reaching the sixth level of body tempering, a force seed will be born in the body, and from then on, it can absorb energy from heaven and earth to practice. Although this absorption is very weak, it is better than nothing.

In other words, only when one reaches the sixth level of body tempering can one truly embark on the path of cultivation.

There is Yuanli in the body. With the blessing of Yuanli, the power of his every move is far beyond that of the fifth level of body tempering. Therefore, if they fight, the former will crush the latter.

Of course, that was the normal situation. Mu Zi mastered the Tongbei Fist, which was comparable to the second-grade martial arts, and the Lingbo Step, which was comparable to the third-grade martial arts. She was confident that she could defeat an opponent with the sixth-grade body tempering.

However, this is not enough.

Mu Zi knew clearly that with her current strength, she was no match for the ninth level of Body Tempering.

A month has passed, and in another two months, it will be the family assessment. Now is not the time to relax.

"The third-grade spiritual medicine is indeed extraordinary. Not only did it allow me to break through the fifth level of body tempering, but there is still some medicinal power left in my body that has not been absorbed."

"The medicinal power will remain in the body for a few days. We can't waste it. We have to start increasing the intensity of our practice."

Without stopping to rest for a moment, Mu Zi pushed the door open and continued his hard training day after day.

Time seems nothing in cultivation, and half a month passed in the blink of an eye.

"The Rehmannia fruit is also used up." Mu Zi murmured.

In the past half month, she took one Rehmannia fruit every three days. I am afraid that few people near Qingyang Town can afford such extravagant consumption.

After breaking through to the fifth level of body tempering, even third-grade elixirs could no longer produce the same effect as before, and the speed of cultivation inevitably slowed down.

"The Rehmannia glutinosa fruit is still not very effective."

In the original novel, Lin Dong swallowed seven or eight drops of Stone Talisman Spiritual Liquid at the fifth level of Body Tempering. Before the Stone Talisman Spiritual Liquid was diluted, its medicinal power was not comparable to that of ordinary third-grade spiritual medicines. Moreover, the Rehmannia fruit was only equivalent to two drops of diluted spiritual liquid.

Although the Samsara Seal can also purify the medicinal power, it itself still has to take some kickbacks.

Fortunately, Mu Zi's energy talent seemed to be incomparable to that guy Lin Dong. After using up five Rehmannia fruits, she could already feel the opportunity for a breakthrough.

"Another third-grade spiritual medicine would be great."

If Mu Zi takes the third-grade elixir once more, he will be confident of breaking through to the sixth level of body tempering.

"Where can I find the elixir?"

Guan Muyun? She shook her head. Although Mu Yun was a high-ranking official in Mujiazhuang, it was not easy for him to provide the sisters with cultivation.

Mujiazhuang is not a place where those in power can do whatever they want.

There is no order without rules. Although the Mu Family Manor is not powerful, it still has to follow basic rules. Even if Mu Yun is a senior member of the manor, he cannot use the back door at will. That would chill the hearts of the members of the clan.

This is why Mu Zi must pass the assessment and get the highest evaluation.

There are many elders in the clan who have worked diligently for the family for half their lives and have only saved enough contribution points to exchange for their favorite martial arts.

I'm afraid I don't have the qualifications to just casually browse through the Mu Family Village martial arts.

The reason why Mujiazhuang survived in Tiandu County was because of its adherence to rules. Only when the people in the clan were united could they stand firm in the face of challenges from all sides.

Moreover, the resources in Mujiazhuang are not much, and spiritual medicine is even more scarce. Only the core members of the clan are eligible to exchange spiritual medicine with contribution points, and others can only have some opportunities to obtain spiritual medicine when Mujiazhuang holds some activities. For example, the annual family assessment is such an event.

Since it was not feasible to obtain resources from the family, Mu Zi could only find a way on her own.

Walking in the dense forest on the back mountain, Mu Zi observed his surroundings carefully.

Sometimes, even when she sees a "suspicious" bush, she will take the trouble to turn it upside down.

That’s right, going to the wild to collect herbs, this was the solution she thought of.

In fact, this was a helpless move. Most ways of making money had to bear certain risks, and her current cultivation was still too low. Only the luck-based method of picking herbs was still somewhat feasible.

The girl smiled on her dusty face: "My luck can't be too bad."

However, it seemed as if his words had come true. After searching for more than an hour, Mu Zi still found nothing.

Although the risk of collecting herbs is not high, the threshold is too low. Perhaps many people have had the same idea as her. The jungle near Mujiazhuang has been explored and there is nothing left.

"Maybe I should go deeper." Mu Zi thought.

However, although there might be magical medicines in the depths of the jungle, there might also be ferocious beasts. Mu Zi hesitated for a moment, but decided to continue going deeper into the jungle.

She knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and that every risk brought every reward. In order to speed up her cultivation, she could accept even a little risk.

"What are you afraid of? Just do it!"

Moreover, she had some confidence and did not make the decision blindly.

She has mastered the Lingbo Step, which is comparable to the third-grade martial arts. It is difficult for ordinary beasts to keep up with her speed. As long as you don't have the misfortune to encounter a monster beast, your safety is guaranteed.

Mu Zi left the area of ​​Mu Village and walked towards the depths of the woods.

After going deeper, Mu Zi continued searching for half an hour but still found nothing.

She was not in a hurry, after all, elixirs were not so easy to find.

Suddenly, there was a fluctuation from the reincarnation seal between Mu Zi's eyebrows. The fluctuation was so subtle that if she hadn't felt it carefully, she would probably have ignored it.

Carefully feeling the fluctuations of the Samsara Seal, Mu Zi discovered that it seemed to be some kind of guidance.

Out of curiosity, she walked in the direction indicated.

After walking for more than ten minutes, he still found nothing. Mu Zi even doubted whether the fluctuation he felt was an illusion.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up. There seemed to be something under the grass in front of her.

After getting closer, she finally confirmed that this was a first-grade spiritual medicine - red ginseng.

Suddenly, the bushes nearby shook and a large snake emerged. The snake spat at Mu Zi fiercely, as if warning her not to get close.

Taking a glance at the snake, which was just an ordinary wild beast, Mu Zi raised the corners of his mouth.

“It’s finally open.”

As he said that, he rushed towards the red ginseng lightly, reached out his hand, and dug it away.

Before the big snake could react, Mu Zi's figure had already gone far away, leaving only a small pit where the red ginseng was before.

Not far away, Mu Zi stared at the elixir in his hand, thoughtfully.

"The Samsara Seal also has a treasure-hunting function?"

She followed the guidance of the Samsara Seal and discovered the red ginseng. This was probably not a coincidence.

"It seems that the Samsara Seal is not that simple. Perhaps it has other functions that have not been discovered yet."

"Let's study it some time."

In the next half hour, the Samsara Seal fluctuated twice again. Following the guidance, Mu Zi found one first-grade and one second-grade spiritual medicine.

With so many examples, she finally confirmed that the Samsara Seal does have some treasure hunting functions.

Mu Zi was very happy. With this ability, she could find many spiritual medicines, which would be very helpful for her cultivation.

However, after calming down, Mu Zi realized that this ability must be hidden well.

If some powerful people knew about this, they might capture her and turn her into their personal treasure-hunting pet.

A picture suddenly flashed through Mu Zi's mind.

A skinny old man raised his hand and pointed:
"It's decided to be you, Ah Zi! Go find all the treasures around here for me."

Then, his figure appeared from behind the old man, with a dull look in his eyes and a collar around his neck.

"Yes, Master."

Shivering, Mu Zi quickly drove the unreliable image from his mind.

"This matter must not be known to other people. Hmm!" The girl clenched her fists tightly.

Coming back to her senses, she looked at the jungle in front of her.

"Let's continue collecting herbs!"
