He then glanced at the name of the task publisher.

Divine Phoenix Female!

Xiao Mu was startled.

He first heard the name of the Divine Phoenix Female from Qing Yan monk.

It was only from Stone-in-the-Sword's account that he learned she was a top existence within the Alliance, second only to the Human Emperor in status, and on par with the Beast Emperor, already a strong being in the fifth realm.

Unexpectedly, this task was issued by her.

Soon, Xiao Mu's attention fell on the word 'half-finished' before the Breaking Realm Pill.

"What does this 'half-finished' mean?"

Xiao Mu asked Zhu Zhu.

Zhu Zhu somewhat reluctantly explained, "Half-finished means it hasn't fully transmuted. This Breaking Realm Pill transmuted from other medicinal pills, but its mutation has temporarily ceased because it was delivered prematurely. Unless a substantial amount of resources is used to catalyse it, you could only wait for a good opportunity for it to mutate automatically."

The half-finished Breaking Realm Pill is not a real Breaking Realm Pill, just like Xiao Mu's Fire Dragon Vehicle.

Because the Fire Dragon Vehicle did not fully mutate, Curse Ghost Lan had to use a large number of resources to catalyse the mutation of the Fire Dragon Vehicle.

Xiao Mu understood, no wonder this task remained.

Over four hundred mutated beings in the early fourth realm on the Broken Truth Mountain, each needing a Breaking Realm Pill, yet no one has claimed this task.

The resources required to catalyse the mutation of the Breaking Realm Pill are not something that just anyone can afford, and even those who could afford it might not be willing to invest such resources into catalysing the Breaking Realm Pill.

After all, the resources needed for catalysation are so vast, likely enough to exchange for a real Breaking Realm Pill, making it highly uneconomical.

However, to Xiao Mu, these problems obviously didn't matter.

His Mutation Technique can easily induce an object's mutation.

Especially with this half-finished product, there's no need to choose the direction of mutation, just directly mutate it.

Xiao Mu was silently delighted and said, "This is the task, I want this task."

"You want this task, are you sure?"

Zhu Zhu was somewhat astonished.

The Breaking Realm Pill task is virtually worthless, and no mutated being at the Alliance Headquarters is willing to take it.

Surprisingly, this human chose it as soon as he arrived.

"Confirmed!"

Xiao Mu didn't hesitate.

"Suit yourself!"

Zhu Zhu, who usually despises humans, had no intention of persuading Xiao Mu and immediately registered for him.

Afterwards, she gave Xiao Mu a round metal badge, a newly issued identity badge that every strong being has, used to verify the holder's identity.

On the front of the badge is Xiao Mu's identity information, and on the back is a star, representing that Xiao Mu's strength is at the early stage of the fourth realm.

"I have some supplies that I want to entrust the Alliance to sell for me."

After registration, Xiao Mu said.

Stone-in-the-Sword told him that all strong beings could entrust the Alliance to sell their supplies as long as they paid a certain fee.

"Five percent of the proceeds as the entrustment fee, fill in this form."

Zhu Zhu handed a form to Xiao Mu while reminding him.

Xiao Mu took out the supplies, filled them in one by one on the form, and clearly defined the intended prices.

Despite having already sold many materials, the supplies he presented still managed to surprise Zhu Zhu and the others.

He filled out all the various items, signed his name, Zhu Zhu stamped it, gave him a copy, and the handover was complete.

With the copy in his hands, Xiao Mu left the hall, returning to his own villa.

As soon as he stepped into the villa, Wang Ruo Luan rushed over to report that Ma Ming had left the villa about ten minutes ago and has not yet returned.

"Oh!"

Xiao Mu was intrigued. "I see, you can go about your business now."

After sending Wang Ruoluan away, Xiao Mu deliberately went to the entrance to wait for Ma Ming to return.

Half an hour went by, but Ma Ming had not returned.

"Damn it! Ma Ming must have gone down the mountain."

A tightness gripped Xiao Mu's heart, and he waited no longer.

He drove the Fire Dragon Vehicle straight down the mountain.

"Roar~"

Two Fire Dragons appeared, merged into a line of fire, pulling the vehicle, tearing down the mountain at breakneck speed.

※※※

As Xiao Mu guessed, Ma Ming really had gone down the mountain.

His pace was slower than Xiao Mu's, and as he didn't know that he was being pursued, he took the time to tidy up his belongings, bringing some unique gifts from the mountain exclusively for Qing Niu, and casually strolled down the mountain.

"Damn humans, daring to hurt me, once I borrow the Spirit Communicating Demon Fork from Brother Qing Niu, I will certainly kill you."

Coming down from the mountain, Ma Ming cursed his way towards the airport.

Thinking of Xiao Mu who had injured him, he gritted his teeth, intense hatred surfacing on his face.

However, suddenly, his face changed, his sights locked onto the forest ahead.

The next moment, following the roaring sound of the Fire Dragons, Xiao Mu driving the Fire Dragon Vehicle emerged at the edge of the forest.

A faint smile showed on Xiao Mu's face, "Mr. Ma, I've waited a while for you."

Ma Ming's heart sank as he forced a laugh, pretending ignorance, "So it's Mr. Xiao, long time no see. Mr. Xiao, what brings you down the mountain?"

Xiao Mu laughed, "Mr. Ma, why ask when you already know? Isn't it to borrow the Spirit Communicating Demon Fork from Qing Niu and kill me that you've come down the mountain this time?"

Ma Ming's face changed immediately, realizing there was no room to maneuver, he pointed at Xiao Mu, bellowing, "Xiao, don't think that I'm scared of you. Even without the Spirit Communicating Demon Fork, I can still kill you. Die!"

With that, he flung his hands.

In the air, countless flying needles suddenly appeared, each bizarre and strange, with piercing radiance shooting towards Xiao Mu.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

For a moment, it seemed like hundreds, even thousands of people were simultaneously shooting arrows, the sky was a blur of needle shadows.

Seeing this, Xiao Mu couldn't help but feel surprised.

What Ma Ming was using was neither martial technique nor Taoist Law, but a Secret Art that he had never seen before.

It seemed to be Ma Ming's gift of Divine Powers after Attaining Dao.

However, he wasn't the least bit flustered, shaking the Divine Armor Talisman onto himself.

As the Divine Armor shielded his body, the projected image of the divine being overhead became more solid.

Upon entering the Fourth Realm, the power of his Transmutation Divine Armor Talisman had improved once again.

The divine projection extended its hand, a golden shield suddenly materializing from it.

This golden shield bore countless peculiar symbols, all flickering at the same time, manifesting a unique power. In a flash, the golden glow of the shield expanded, completely blocking the needle shadows that filled the sky.

Clang, clang, clang!

Each Strange Needle collided against the golden shield, creating a metallic sound, but all were deflected, drained of power, and dropped to the ground.

"Xiao, count yourself lucky. I will not join you today!"

Ma Ming had no intention of tangling with Xiao Mu. The instant he released the flying needles, he transformed into his true form of a black horse, roared, and turned to flee towards the mountain.

He was very clear, as long as he could get back to the mountain, Xiao Mu would not dare lay hands on him.

"Mr. Ma, why are you leaving in such a hurry? I haven't finished my words. Stay, let us continue reminiscing."

Seeing Ma Ming manifest his true form and flee, Xiao Mu wasn't in a hurry. He suddenly took a bell from the Earth Seal Space with his right hand.

"Get!"

With the bell facing Ma Ming, accompanied by Xiao Mu's angry shout, numerous golden threads shot out, binding the black horse transformation of Ma Ming, and pulling it into the bell.
