Chapter 653 - Generosity And Debt
Lin Mu looked at Mu Tao and his cultivation base and compared them to the thousands of enemies they would have. Even some of the servants of the cultivation sects might be stronger than them right now. And Gu Yao had way more of them under his control than just one.
~Sigh~
After secretly sighing to himself, Lin Mu shook his head.
’Even if they are willing to help us, at the speed they will grow, they might not be enough...’ Lin Mu thought.
He closed his eyes and thought for a bit before coming to a decision.
"Mu Tao, does your clan have a cultivation area?" Lin Mu questioned.
"A cultivation area?" Mu Tao asked, feeling a bit confused.
"A place where the more talented clansmen can cultivate in a higher concentration of spirit Qi," Lin Mu replied.
"No senior... something like that we cannot dream to have." Mu Tao said, in a slightly sorrowful tone.
"Hmm... alright." Lin Mu said before turning to Jing Luo. "Can you set up a Qi gathering formation array for them?"
~thud~
After saying that, Lin Mu waved his hand and a large object fell to the ground with a thud.
~shua~
In the next moment, the spirit Qi of the area increased by over ten times.
"My bottleneck... it’s gone?" Mu Tao said as he looked at his hands.
"Let’s get you settled properly for the breakthrough. Core Condensation realm isn’t that far for you now." Jing Luo said.
Lin Mu nodded his head and looked up at the ceiling, or rather at clan.
"Let the breakthrough happen in full view of the clan. It should do some good for their morale," Lin Mu advised, before disappearing into thin air.
Once Lin Mu was gone, Mu Tao was left staring at his position.
"Come on, we got a breakthrough to do." Jing Luo stated.

In the sky above the Mu Clan, Lin Mu let his spirit sense spread across the city. He quickly found the three clans that they had targeted and approached the one that was the closest to his position.
The clan in question was the Shu clan and was located right in the middle of the city. From the sky, Lin Mu could see the antlers that illuminated the Shu clan below. He could also see their insignia that was imprinted on the walls of the clan compound.
"Let’s get started..." Lin Mu said before disappearing and appearing in one of the rooms of the Shu clan.
In this room, an old man was having a good time drinking wine and listening to a few women playing music on various instruments. Lin Mu had appeared right behind the old man and thus he had not seen him, but the musicians did notice Lin Mu there.
At first, they were stunned and lost a few notes, which led to the old man’s displeasure. He had been enjoying the music, and it was going so smoothly, but now there was an awkward pause. The musicians were about to say sometime but then they heard Lin Mu mutter something.
In the next moment, their eyes glazed over and they fell into a daze. The chants didn’t just stop here though, even while being very low in volume, they spread across the entire Shu clan, sending them into a daze.
The severing heart sutra showed its might after a long time and allowed Lin Mu to sever lives easily.
The first to die was the old man in front of Lin Mu. He was none other than one of the council members that Lin Mu had seen and also the patriarch of the Shu clan. Lin Mu’s hand wrapped around the man’s neck before snapping it in a second.
~Crack~
