Free Web NovelThis was the last month the Hanging Temple was staying in the Southern Border, and today was finally the time for them to depart.
During this period, Li Mo and Ying Bing had visited the Grotto-Heavens of various clans together, bringing the brilliance of the jade phoenix god to each clan, fulfilling their original promise.
The sunlight of early winter, even from three suns, did not bring much warmth into the room.
“Princess Xiao Jiang has made great progress recently.”
Li Mo opened his eyes.
This month, he had completed sixty of the Seventy-Two Transformations, with twelve remaining. Moreover, he discovered that the transformations within the Seventy-Two Transformations could actually be projected into the Small World.
Of course, they were still not living beings.
Thus, Princess Xiao Jiang gained many more sparring partners and many silent companions. From them, she comprehended many sword techniques, which she then dutifully handed over to her Master, asking him for guidance.
Heavenly Venerable Li Mo stated that her sword Dao no longer needed to follow others' changes, and that she should simply follow her true self.
This was the Ice Cube's recent evaluation of Li Mo's sword Dao.
“My Martial Arts Comprehension has also surpassed a thousand years.”
“Recently, there haven’t been any urgent martial arts I need to learn.”
Li Mo looked at the aquatic creatures playing outside the window and briefly checked the gains from his recent investments in the System space.
There are currently three golden mountains left, still not having recovered to my Peak.
But he was still Li, rich and powerful, Mo.
Because the feedback from the Yao Race mostly consisted of various rare treasures, such as enormous pearls...Gold-sinking rosewood...Cold Smoke Jade... If these things were exchanged for money, their specific value was unknown, but they would certainly be enough to make the richest man in Yunzhou take two quick-acting heart-saving pills.
There were also many Heaven And Earth Treasures and rare Medicinal Pills of excellent quality.
“The Ice Cube should have almost finished refining the jade phoenix god...”
Just as he was thinking this.
Congratulations to the host for successfully investing in 'Ying Bing' and helping her refine the jade phoenix god.
Investment Feedback: “Liujin Creation Seal.”
“The Ice Cube has completely refined the jade phoenix god?!” ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
A delicate small seal covered with profound tadpole-like patterns appeared in Li Mo's palm, and his heart couldn't help but pound.
With the Liujin Creation Seal.
Will I be able to upgrade the Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram?
He subconsciously took out that God-Observing Picture and took a deep breath.
Splat—
The Creation Seal touched the God-Observing Picture, but it was different from before.
Nothing happened.
“Hmm?”
Xiao Li did not believe it and stamped it again.
Splat—
Still no movement.
“How strange.”
Li Mo was baffled.
The Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram could not possibly have a problem; he had drawn it himself, and it had been upgraded by the Creation Seal afterward. Moreover, he had been comprehending it for so long.
I've already seen Brother Monkey, so there's no way there could be a problem.
The Creation Seal produced by the System?
Then there's even less chance of a problem.
So what exactly is wrong?
“Could it be... that I am the reason it cannot be upgraded?”
Li Mo pondered, but could not find an answer.
So he put away the Creation Seal and walked out the window, facing the morning light of early winter.
He saw Ying Bing sitting quietly by the water, drinking tea. Her profile was flawless, and her moon-white skin appeared even fairer under the pale sunlight, as if seeing her was like seeing the first snow of winter.
Li Mo picked up a teacup and took a sip.
“Ice Cube, if one initially observes a lower form, can it later become a higher form?”
“Naturally, it can.”
Ying Bing glanced at him, observing the young man, then softly said:
“If a person’s talent is extremely strong, and a mere lower form is unworthy of him, then after he perfects the lower form, he can naturally make it a middle form.”
“This is extremely difficult, and even with great talent, it might require a lifetime of effort, but it’s not impossible for someone to achieve.”
Sect Master?
Li Mo recalled the Sect Master of Qingyuan Sect, who transformed from a sparrow into a ferocious bird.
He couldn't help but fall into thought.
Perhaps the Creation Seal isn't helping him continue to deduce because he hasn't yet perfected the Wukong Seeking the Dao Diagram?
Or is it because some necessary conditions are still lacking?
It seems I can only try again after perfecting the Seventy-Two Transformations and comprehending the Somersault Cloud...
There will be a way when the car reaches the mountain; what is his will eventually be his, so there's no need to rush.
If he were to be so anxious, what about those who started with lower forms and only reached middle forms throughout their lives?
Admonishing himself not to be greedy, Li Mo smiled again:
“Ice Cube, guess what form I want to deduce?”
“What?”
“Extreme Form!”
“Then I’ll wait for you to be the first person to deduce the Great Dao Divine Form.”
Watching the young man speak nonsense with a straight face, Ying Bing rested her chin on her hand, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
He's being childish again...
Hmm?
Li Mo was stunned when he heard this.
So, the Ice Cube means that no one has ever transformed an extreme form into a Great Dao Divine Form on their own?
Does that mean that Great Dao Divine {N•o•v•e•l•i•g•h•t} Forms are all naturally born in the world?
At this moment, a sudden movement came from the entrance of the Grotto-Heaven.
The Yao Kings and Great Yao, who were preparing to return to their clan, came one by one to bid farewell with their clansmen.
“Thank you, Heavenly Dragon, thank you, Qingluan Goddess.”
“In the future, if there’s anything you need in the Southern Border, please come find our Giant Whale Clan.”
“Please accept these few sea ginsengs...”
They came, and they brought gifts too.
........
At the same time.
Southern Border, Senluo Valley.
This place is perpetually shrouded in poisonous miasma and fog. Even a Guan Shen Realm practitioner would be in mortal danger if they inhaled a small amount.
Above the stone hall, a few candlelight illuminated the darkness. Over a dozen teams of shamans wearing bronze masks ascended the steps. If Li Mo were here, he would recognize that the shaman he saw last time was among them.
At this moment, Han Zhen, clad in a blood-red robe, sat beneath the Bronze Divine Tree in the stone hall, one arm dangling empty.
“Has the power of all living beings been collected?”
Han Zhen narrowed his eyes and inhaled through his nose.
The cloud-patterned jade artifacts in the hands of the priests seemed to make the clouds and mist on them real, gathering around him. Whether it was an illusion or not, his complexion became rosier.
“Not bad, more than usual. How did you do it?” freewёbnoνel.com
“Because the divine children have all gone to the Hanging Temple.”
A priest said, holding up a jade artifact.
“Hmm, judging by the time, they should be returning from the Hanging Temple soon.”
Han Zhen forcefully exhaled a breath of frustration from his chest.
Having lost the Blood Phoenix Essence, he had set his sights on the jade phoenix god very early on. That was originally something Great Shang had sent to the heavens and entrusted to the Hanging Temple.
Unfortunately, Huaikong was pedantic, and Shang Qinqing was in league with that bald monk. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to send Zhi Duo Luo and the others to retrieve it.
Thump—
A blood-red eyed crow flew over the poisonous miasma and into the stone hall, transforming into a gaunt, pale middle-aged man.
“Why did you come back alone?”
This Fourth-Grade Yao King was sent by Han Zhen to rendezvous with Zhi Duo Luo and the others.
A Yao King is equivalent to a Human Race Law Body expert, which should have been more than enough.
“Zhi Duo Luo is dead.”
“What about the others?”
“All the same.”
“Impossible!”
Han Zhen shot to his feet.
It was even possible that Zhi Duo Luo had run off with the jade phoenix god himself. So many divine children from the Qianlong Ranking, who had absorbed so much power from all living beings, and the means he had provided.
How could they all die while contending for the jade phoenix god?
“Where is the jade phoenix god?” Han Zhen glanced at the dilapidated Bronze Divine Tree, as if he had also confirmed the matter, and said coldly.
“It was obtained jointly by Wu Mo of the Mingjiao Clan and Luan Bing of the Qingluan Clan.”
The middle-aged man transformed from the black crow whispered.
Mo?!
Bing?!!!
These two words exploded in his ears like a bolt from the blue.
“What do they look like?!” Han Zhen’s voice even became sharp.
“......”
The black crow-transformed middle-aged man plucked two of his feathers. The feathers spontaneously combusted without fire, burning into black ash.
The ashes on the ground outlined the appearances of the two.
Han Zhen was stunned.
.....
