Chapter 2 Broken Stars
"The city of reinforced concrete, neon lights..." Lifting up his heavy eyelids, Mu Dan stroked the birthmark of the ring on his right hand, the ring that accompanied him.
"Since I'm awake, get up!" Mugan's voice sounded beside him. Mudan turned to look. The person who was so energetic back then was sitting at the table next to him with a pale face.
"Father, it's not my fault this time, it's Mu Guan and the others..." Looking at his father's vicissitudes of eyes, Mu Dan, who had never explained it for some reason, couldn't help but want to say something.
"You need to say nothing, I know the matter!" Mu Gan stopped Mu Dan from saying, "You go out and have fun, don't hide alone in practicing every day, have a good contact with other people in the clan, and maybe you will get other gains!"
"Are other people in the clan?" Mu Dan couldn't help but smile bitterly. If it were him five years ago, Mu Dan would definitely be willing to walk around in the clan, but now, he is just asking for trouble after going out.
"I want to practice, but I feel that I am only a little short of my life cycle!" Mu Dan raised his head and said resolutely.
"You are tired, you are too tight. Go out and have a break. This kind of practice will not benefit you from any benefit!" Mu Gan's gaze seemed to soften and he said softly.
"But.,…"
"Go." Mu Dan wanted to say something, but Mu Gan blocked him back. Looking at his father's undeniable eyes, Mu Dan sighed inwardly, turned around and walked out of the house.
Looking at the bright sunshine outside the house and laughter from time to time in the distance, Mu Dan seemed to have improved a lot. But after just a little intoxicated, Mu Dan took back his gaze and walked back to the back of the mountain. There were few people there and suitable for practicing alone.
"Isn't that Mu Dan? I heard that yesterday the clan leader wanted to punish him to the mine and be a miner! Thinking back then, Mu Dan had a bright future, but he didn't expect that he would become a miner now!"
"Who said no? If you really become a miner, it would be worse than our descendants! In that case, Mugan's family would really not be able to raise their heads!" Some women on the roadside saw Mudan's figure and commented in a low voice. Although the voice was very small, Mudan still got his ears.
Mu Dan lowered his head slightly and accelerated his pace toward the back mountain.
"Mu Dan, you finally came out, let us wait miserably!" Suddenly a group of people jumped out of the roadside, blocking Mu Dan's road. The leader was Mu Huang, the followers of Mu Guan.
"Your sick dad didn't come out, okay? Fortunately, the person who was in trouble was not here at all!" Mu Huang laughed in a low voice.
Mu Dan looked straight at Mu Huang, looking at that stinky face, Mu Dan had the urge to punch him directly. But something happened yesterday. If he hit someone again today, many things would be really troublesome, and he was also hit by the group of people's plans.
"Get out of here!" Mu Dan whispered.
"I'm anxious to practice? Haha, just your talent... I'm here today, and I'm not talking nonsense with you. Young Master Mu Guan asked you to go there. If you still want to stay in Mu's house well, just follow me honestly!"
"Mu Huang, tell him nonsense. Just beat him until he leaves!" The others surrounded him and looked at Mu Dan with malicious intentions.
"I don't want to do it!" Mu Dan's fist was already tightened.
"You think of yourself as a warrior, a waste that cannot even complete the inner breath cycle. If it were five years ago, I would have been afraid of you, now, haha!" Everyone laughed loudly.
My body was slowly tensing. Since there was no room for relief, I could only do it. Although I didn’t have the talent that I had been five years ago, it did not mean that he could be bullied.
"A bunch of brats have nothing to do, right? Why are you piled together here? Fuck it and practice it for me quickly!" A rough voice came, and a tough middle-aged man walked from a distance, with a fine scar on his cheek. This scar not only did not vilify the middle-aged man, but also set off the fierce aura to the fullest.
"Uncle Guang!" Everyone else was slightly surprised when they saw the middle-aged man.
"Uncle Guang, we just played with Mu Dan for a while and didn't do anything else!" Mu Huang said with a smile on his face.
"Don't you play, just play, let me practice it all, especially you, run around the clan for five laps, go!" Mu Quanguang slapped Mu Huang in the head.
"Uncle Guang, I..."
"Why, I don't want to go, right? Ten circles!" Mu Quanguang glared.
"Go, I'll go right now!" Mu Huang's neck shrank, his eyes glared at Mu Dan fiercely, and then ran away unwillingly. When the other people saw that even Mu Huang had been punished, they dared not stay here and scattered.
"Thank you, Uncle Guang!" Mu Dan looked up at the big man who was half his head taller.
"Silly boy, why are you polite to your Uncle Guang? I have heard about yesterday. The little patriarch is a bit too much, but don't take it to your heart. As long as you are careful in your daily life, there will be no trouble!" Mu Quanguang touched Mu Dan's head and said with a smile.
"I know!" Thinking of yesterday's scene, Mu Dan grabbed his fist tightly.
"Uncle Guang, I'm going to the back mountain to practice!"
"Well, go!" Mu Quanguang nodded and watched Mu Dan leave.
"Oh, by the way, Mu Dan! I heard that broken stars will appear tonight. Then you can see it. Such a scene is not easy to see. It would be better to have another girl you like, and that would be even better!" Mu Quanguang suddenly shouted loudly.
"Broken stars? Meteor shower?" Mu Dan nodded silently and headed directly to the location of the back mountain.
"Oh, this kid!" Mu Quanguang sighed. Mu Qian was a recognized genius in the clan back then, but he was seriously injured by the playboy outside, leaving behind a secret disease. Not only could he not grow any longer, but he also retreated a lot. Five years ago, Mu Dan was considered a genius who was better than Mu Qian, with natural divine power and extraordinary talent. But later he found that this was simply a useless body, because even the most basic internal breathing cycle could not be achieved!
God is really cruel to this family!
The night is hazy, and the back mountain is in a secluded corner. Mudan sits cross-legged on the rock, his eyes slightly closed.
A trace of spiritual energy that was hard to see in the naked eye was attracted by Mu Dan and entered Mu Dan's body. As soon as these spiritual energy entered Mu Dan's body, they could not wait to merge into Mu Dan's body, but were immediately forcibly stopped by Mu Dan, who was focusing on it. But even so, two-thirds of spiritual energy were still integrated into the body.
Mu Dan carefully controls the remaining spiritual energy and moves in a specific direction. As long as he completes a specific line, he can complete the simplest inner breath cycle. This is the first step for the warrior.
Half an hour later, Mu Dan's body suddenly trembled slightly, and his eyes, which had been tightly closed, opened again, but it was full of loss and helplessness.
"It's still a failure. How many times have I been unable to even achieve the simplest inner breath cycle! Halfway through, I was absorbed by the body! Am I really not suitable to be a warrior?" Mu Dan murmured, his tone a little decadent. Even the simplest inner breath cycle could not be achieved, which means that he did not even take the first step of the cultivator!
At the beginning of cultivation, the Ninth Stage of Body Refining! Mu Dan relied on his body that could forcibly absorb spiritual power, and reached the fifth Stage of Body Refining at the age of 10. This was a sensational event in the clan at that time, and even Mu Dan's grandfather was alarmed.
But all the halos were broken after Mu Dan could not complete the simplest Yuanli cycle! Everyone was surprised that the Yuanli cycle could not be achieved, which means that they could not enter the ranks of practitioners and could only be an ordinary person for the rest of their lives!
Heaven and Hell, only overnight.
Mu Dan did not give up and kept trying. But the results he got were the same. His body was too domineering, so domineering that the spiritual energy would actively integrate into it. This is a good thing, because it can train an extremely powerful body.
However, when spiritual energy cannot even be able to achieve the most basic cycle of the Yuan power, the spiritual energy that can be absorbed will be very limited every time. There is no way to store enough spiritual energy in the body to make breakthroughs, and the efficiency of absorbing spiritual energy by relying solely on instinct is too low.
In five years, relying on this instinctive absorption, Mu Dan changed from the fifth stage of body refining to the sixth stage of body refining! In the whole five years, he only made one step forward, which disappointed everyone who expected it, including Mu Dan himself. Although he has been a human being for two lives, he cannot accept such a result!
"I was an ordinary person in my previous life. Could it be an ordinary person in this life? Is it still an ordinary person in my previous life? I would not be in danger of life, but I can't say this world! Old guy, do you think so?" Mu Dan fell to the ground, stroked the birthmark of the ring on his finger, and looked at the sky blankly. The sky in another world was very bright, and the stars were covered with the night sky.
"Everyone comes here to wait for the broken stars. This place is the most suitable place for watching the broken stars. Zhihui, be careful not to fall down!" A noisy sound came, and a woman was hugged in the middle.
Mu Dan was indifferent to those voices. At this time, he felt very tired, so tired that he didn't want to move.
"Hey, someone is Mudan. Let's go, we want to see the broken stars here. Mudan, you have occupied our place!"
Mu Dan did not respond, and even looked at those people, or Mu Dan didn't even hear those people's words.
"Hey, the people who are about to go to the mine are still so crazy. Brothers, take the miner away. Broken Stars are coming soon. You can't waste your time by being too late!"
"Brother Mu Dan, it turns out that you are here. I just went to find you and wanted to watch the broken stars with you, but I couldn't find you!" Mu Zhihui looked at Mu Dan in surprise.
"What Brother Mu Dan, Zhihui, do you think he is still the genius from 5 years ago. The patriarch said that he was going to get him to the mine, and we are no longer in the same world as him!" The others scoffed.
"Mine cave, what are you talking about? Brother Mu Dan, he is always the best!" Mu Zhihui frowned in dissatisfaction. Although the rumors about Mu Dan are so unfavorable now, Mu Zhihui has always believed that the confident boy did not disappear at the time, but now he is just blocked by some obstacles.
"Look, broken stars, broken stars appear!" Someone looked up, and a meteor passed through the sky, illuminating the entire sky. With the first one, meteors began to appear one after another.
The group of people were right, Mu Dan's position was indeed very good. Because even Mu Dan, who was in a state of distracted state, was still attracted by the beautiful scenery in the sky. Mu Dan just stared at the meteor shower in the sky, but he did not notice that his ring birthmark was shining with the meteors passing by in the sky, and the light became more and more intense until...
"Buzz!"
Mu Dan sat up from the ground and looked at the birthmark of the ring that emitted a hot breath on his fingers in a daze. A vague message rushed into Mu Dan's mind! Then before he had time to react, an unstoppable severe pain appeared in his mind. His eyes turned dark and Mu Dan fainted.
