"Me?" Mu Jinyu turned his head to look at the curious women watching him, smiled, and said, "I am now at the fourth layer of the Unity Realm Stage."

Mu Hongchen was surprised to hear Mu Jinyu's words, astonished at how he had crossed two major realms from the Divinity Transformation Realm in just a year, but even more amazed by how he obtained ten heaven-reaching spiritual treasures with only the fourth layer of the Unity Realm Stage!

"This doesn't make sense..." Mu Hongchen frowned, mumbling, "Isn't the fourth layer of the Unity Realm Stage the middle stage of Hedao? Didn't you just say that the heaven-reaching spiritual treasures are exclusive to Supreme Sect Leaders at the late Harmonizing Path Stage?"

If Mu Jinyu had one or two heaven-reaching spiritual treasures, Mu Hongchen could understand, maybe he got them from some relic.

But having more than ten heaven-reaching spiritual treasures, that's just too exaggerated.

How many Supreme Sect Leaders would one have to kill to obtain them?

Before Mu Jinyu could answer, Gu Xiyan and Mei Yinxue laughed, "Aunt Mu, have you forgotten that he's a freak?"

"Exactly, back when he was at Energy Transformation, he could kill a Lord of the Killing Realm with Divinity Transformation Realm Cultivation. Later, he also killed those at the Mid Stage of Divine Realm with Early Stage Divine Realm Cultivation. Now at the middle Hedao stage, killing those at the late stage, isn't that quite normal?"

Hearing Gu Xiyan and the others, Mu Hongchen smiled wryly, feeling it seemed to be the truth.

However, over the past year, in their battles against foreign enemies, there have been very few achievements of killing across realms; surpassing stages to defeat even seems too hard.

Thus, she gradually understood that as cultivation advances, fighting across realms becomes increasingly difficult; it's easy to speak of defeating those above, but doing it is far too challenging.

That's why she thought it unbelievable that Mu Jinyu, with middle Hedao Realm Cultivation, could obtain so many exclusive weapons from those at late Hedao Realm.

Mu Jinyu grinned and added, "Yes, Xiyan and the others are correct. I did indeed kill quite a few Supreme Sect Leaders with my middle Hedao Realm Cultivation. Some of these heaven-reaching spiritual treasures are my spoils of war. However, these treasures are scarce even in Kunlun Ruins; not every Supreme Sect Leader possesses one. So some parts of these spiritual treasures were actually given by my mentor."

"Your mentor?"

"Is the elder still alive?"

Upon hearing Mu Jinyu's last words, except for Wen Rou and Jian Ruyan, the other women were momentarily stunned, then suddenly excited.

Being the closest to Mu Jinyu, they certainly knew his background well and had heard quite a bit about him and his mentor of Xiang Mantang.

However, they had originally guessed that Mu Shao'ai might have already passed away, but then they heard about the elder from Mu Jinyu.

So they all curiously questioned Mu Jinyu.

"Let's go inside and talk slowly; I'll explain my experiences over the past year."

Mu Jinyu naturally didn't intend to keep anything from them, but given the amount he had to talk about, it couldn't be finished quickly. Realizing they were still standing at Yinlong Mountain's gate, he suggested.

"Yes, yes... let's go inside first..."

Mu Hongchen, hearing Mu Jinyu, responded promptly.

Then Mu Jinyu gestured to Nai Mucha to follow and entered Yinlong Mountain with the others.

Meanwhile, the little Phoenix held by Wen Rou secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Previously, watching everyone divide the heaven-reaching spiritual treasures, it remembered Mu Jinyu telling it that its Separation Fire Furnace was only temporarily lent to it and would be taken back if suitable spiritual treasures weren't found.

It was afraid Mu Hongchen would dislike that purple lump, then Mu Jinyu would take his Separation Fire Furnace back, causing a lot of worry and fear.

Now seeing Mu Hongchen accepted that Purple Gold Hammer, it secretly relaxed, but feared that someday Mu Jinyu would take spiritual treasures to give away again and might target its Separation Fire Furnace.

The little Phoenix felt quite troubled.

Walking into Yinlong Mountain, Mu Jinyu was observing Dragon King Hall's current state with his Divine Sense and was pleased to find that, except for some noticeable young members who joined recently, all the older members had cultivation at one or two layers of the Divinity Transformation Realm.

Those youngsters also had cultivation above the Mid Energy Transformation Stage.

Currently, Mu Jinyu saw no one with cultivation below Dark Energy.

'It seems that the plan for universal martial cultivation before leaving indeed worked; in less than a year, it brought such changes…'

Mu Jinyu silently mused.

During the journey, many subordinates of Dragon King Hall, seeing Mu Jinyu escorted by Gu Xiyan, Su Zijin, and other high-level members walking toward Yinlong Mountain's inner valley, saluted while secretly pondering who that young man was.

Not everyone in Dragon King Hall knew Mu Jinyu, especially after he had gone through fire and blood in Kunlun Ruins, advancing from Divinity Transformation Realm to Unity Realm Stage, changing quite a bit from a year ago.

It was nearly impossible for anyone unfamiliar with him to recognize him as Tiance True Dragon, who left Dragon King Hall some time ago!

Until Mu Jinyu and his group entered Yinlong Mountain's inner valley and disappeared from view, did the group discuss his identity with uncertainty.

By now, someone had recognized Mu Jinyu's identity, exclaiming excitedly, "He must be our Dragon King Hall's Tiance True Dragon!"

"What?! Dragon Master? He's back?"

The recently joined members of Dragon King Hall were thrilled to hear this.

"I do recall someone mentioned that Dragon Master had some business to handle, leaving Dragon King Hall for a time; it's surprising he's back today!"

"With Dragon Master's glorious achievements and his protective nature, every grievance Dragon King Hall suffered will surely be rectified!"

"Finally, Dragon King Hall can boost its morale!"

"..."

Mu Jinyu accompanied Gu Xiyan and others back into the inner valley, continually monitoring Dragon King Hall's conditions, and indeed heard the excited discussions.

He sighed inwardly, realizing during Earth's Spiritual Energy Revival, Dragon King Hall did not completely dominate as anticipated, likely due to Gu Xiyan and the others consistently combating the Ferocious Beast waves.

While other forces, during those beast attacks, withheld their efforts, secretly gathering strength like Li Youran.

And thus, gaining the advantage in the long run.

'However, now that I've returned, everything changes...'

Mu Jinyu silently uttered to himself, not displaying his thoughts openly, smiling warmly as he began discussing his experiences in Kunlun Ruins over the past year with Gu Xiyan and the others.
