Mu Mumu, a rather interesting name.
Not unlike the young men and women outside who recruit "foreign labor," Mu Mumu's talent within the Wood Spirit Clan isn't particularly impressive.
Whether it's cultivation or alchemy, it's the same.
If we must set a standard.
Her cultivation talent is probably below average, and her alchemy talent is just a bit better, but still very limited.
As an 118-year-old young lady of the Wood Spirit Clan, her strength barely reaches the Emperor Realm, and a lot of it is due to the accumulation of medicinal drugs...
As for the rank of pharmacist, she is a ninth-grade alchemist, currently studying under a Dao-grade alchemist of the Wood Spirit Clan, waiting for the day to enter the Emperor-grade.
So.
Why would such an ordinary Wood Spirit Clan girl dare to take on a mess that even an ordinary Realm Lord can't solve?
It starts with a pitch-black ring...
That ring was something Mu Mumu picked up at a trade fair when she was eighty years old, following her elders.
At that time, she didn't know what she was thinking. At the first sight of the ring, Mu Mumu had a strong intuition that if she missed it, it would be like missing the greatest opportunity of her life!
So, despite the warnings of her elders, she insisted on exchanging the first sum of money she was free to use, which was allocated by the clan, for this rather ugly ring.
Of course, different from the common protagonist templates.
In fact, there are not so many protagonists in the world.
The ring that Mu Mumu brought back did not have a soul body good at alchemy that could let her worship as a teacher, and then lead her to find the strange fire, and reach the peak of life.
Later, after consulting a large amount of information collected by the clan, she determined the origin and function of this ring.
In the ancient times, in the historical dust of how many eras ago, there was a group of people who were as short as goblins, favored by the world, and almost knew all the secrets of the world - the Blacknas people.
The Blacknas people were born with extraordinary wisdom and had the ability to steal knowledge from the law.
Their chief, Metis, was a natural deity, known as the one who knows all the secrets of the world.
However, Metis had only wisdom but lacked absolute powerful martial power.
In this case, knowing too much naturally aroused the suspicion of other domain gods of the same era.
After all, those gods who really stand at the top of the world will never allow a life that may know all their secrets and may surpass themselves to exist safely.
So, a siege that was accepted by all gods began.
Under the implication of some transcendent existences, the eleven powerful domain gods of the world united.
They held a tube of laundry powder found in the Blacknas family, claiming that the Blacknas family was researching a large-scale destructive dirty potion that subverted the entire divine domain, and then rushed into the small world built by Metis with an unstoppable posture of the Blacknas people.
In just one day, the earth was stained with blood.
Although Metis had outstanding wisdom, he was unable to prevent the extinction of his clan.
He sat in the Wanshi Temple built by the Blacknas family, burned himself with the divine flame, and went to annihilation with the secrets of the whole world.
The Blacknas family was destroyed.
The entire divine domain, in that era, and even several adjacent eras, no one dared to mention their name again, this group of people in charge of wisdom once became a taboo in the divine domain.
Until the sixth era after that.
The domain gods who participated in that matter have gradually disappeared and withdrawn from the stage of the divine domain.
The new generation of domain gods has been rising, and the pattern of the divine domain has almost completely reshuffled.
It was finally time for scholars to start digging into the history of the Blacknas family.
Some scholars proposed a guess that the Blacknas family did not really die out.
They speculated that Metis, who knew all the secrets, had an ability similar to a "prophet."
He may have already seen the extinction of his clan.
Although he was unable to resist, he could not escape the end of the fall, and with his means, he could still make arrangements in advance and leave some blood inheritance for his clan.
After that, several tens of eras passed, and the Blacknas family completely became history.
Like the Desert God Country, it only left a cold text in the database of various major forces, proving that they really came to this world.
When Mu Mumu came across this record, she thought of the mysterious force that suddenly rose in the near era, the "Divine Plan Tower."
If the Blacknas family really has any inheritance, this mysterious intelligence agency is undoubtedly the biggest suspect.
Fortunately, the Divine Plan Tower does not have the kind of transgressive ability of the Blacknas family, and there is no domain god in the tower, which is a kind of thing that can't stir up any waves in the eyes of the major forces.
Whether the Divine Plan Tower has any relationship with the Blacknas family, she dare not be sure.
But the black ring in Mu Mumu's hand is indeed a relic left by the Blacknas family.
"Peeking at the Heavens Ring," this is the name of the ring.
Well, the name sounds very awesome, but the ring is actually a standard equipment for the Blacknas people. The one in her hand is a damaged Taoist instrument, which can do the transgressive thing of divining the divine plan with the inherent talent of the Blacknas people.
Unfortunately, Mu Mumu is not a Blacknas person. She has racked her brains and studied for more than ten years, and only accidentally completed a simple and not simple divination on a night when the world's rules fluctuated a few years ago, and got a trace of a vague message.
Great luck!
The auspicious hexagram should be on two strangers.
Get along with them to get a great fortune!
And today in the afternoon, the feeling that this auspicious sign is about to be fulfilled is extremely strong.
Mu Mumu thought that today seems to be the day when the clan absorbs fresh "blood" from outside, so she hurriedly followed behind a few young people on duty and slipped out.
Well, this kind of behavior is actually a bit out of line in the clan rules.
But she is very familiar with those younger martial brothers and sisters, and she thinks as long as she doesn't put the responsibility of treating Cao Jiaxue on them, they won't mind helping to cover up this small matter that violates the clan rules.
Even if it is really exposed, it is not afraid.
These two people in the eyes of the Wood Spirit Clan's bigwigs are not much different from ordinary people. She will at most be punished a little for breaking the rules, and there will be no other problems.
As for Cao Jiaxue's problem.
As long as Mu Mumu successfully advances to the Emperor-grade pharmacist and is assigned a strand of Qingyi Wood Spirit Flame, she is confident that through the gentle nature of this heavenly fire, she can barely do a short-term suppression of the curse.
The price is that she may have to do a "fire therapy" for Cao Jiaxue every day for the next ten years, and all the resources she is allocated from the clan have to be put on this woman.
Well... I have to hide it from those old stubborn people in the clan.
Who to use the resources for is the freedom of the Wood Spirit Clan people, but Cao Jiaxue and Jin Yuan Chong's situation is a bit special.
What she is doing now is like a crazy fan of Jin Yuan Chong, who is still humble to the point of using everything to continue the life of Jin Yuan Chong's wife, and then waiting to take over ten years later, which is a super big grievance.
Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why she wants to do all this.
The Wood Spirit Clan's customs are very free, everyone's character is very good, but there is only one iron rule that cannot be crossed.
Do not marry outside the clan! No matter men or women!
You can even choose to be unmarried for life, and no one will say anything about you except your parents.
But marrying outside the clan is regarded as a betrayal of the clan!
The clan will not say that it must break up with you or anything, but it has the right to take back everything you have received in the clan since you were born!
Including the abolition of cultivation, the recovery of the heavenly fire, and a lifetime ban on refining the elixir, and no longer being able to claim to be a member of the Wood Spirit Clan, etc.
If violated, it will be pursued by the Wood Spirit Purification Team!
This is a red line that cannot be touched!
