Chapter 121
Gu Qingwu couldn't help but laugh lightly when she heard this, "Then it seems that I blame you" She didn't know why, and suddenly felt a burst of lightness in her heart.
This is exactly what the authorities are obsessed with.
Although Gu Qingwu didn't know Chu Mo very well, he knew that although Chu Mo was easy-going on the surface, when facing outsiders, the vigilance in his heart was much heavier than anyone else's. In her impression, Chu Mo would only be completely relaxed when he was with Gu Linglin.
But at this moment, the line of defense that lay across Chu Mo's heart didn't know when it was open to Gu Qingwu, otherwise, even if Gu Qingwu didn't threaten Chu Mo's heart and ability, Chu Mo would never have let a person contact him so closely without noticing. This proves that Chu Mo no longer regards Gu Qingwu as an outsider in the depths of his heart.
And this is also the reason for Gu Qingwu's psychological changes. Although she didn't think about it so deeply, after she felt the slight change in Chu Mo's attitude towards her, it made her subconsciously feel happy.
With a light smile, the abundance of jade made Chu Mo slightly distracted, and he coughed unnaturally, don't turn his head to look at the boundless sky again, but his delicate face looked a little dignified.
Gu Qingwu followed Chu Mo's gaze, grasped the slightest change in Chu Mo's heart, and couldn't help asking, "What are you looking at?"
Chu Mo didn't answer and asked: "Do you remember the events of the day?"
Gu Qingwu bowed slightly, and said, "Have you already figured out some clues?"
Chu Mo shook his head and said, "I just feel that this matter is not as simple as it seems. This feeling has not diminished by half, but has become more intense. Look at the sky, do you notice anything unusual?"
"Sky" Gu Qingwu looked at it a little puzzled, but when he saw the dark clouds rolling in the sky, and the black sky was boundless, he only felt gloomy and depressing, but he only thought that this was a phenomenon unique to the Wanxu Mountain Range, and he didn't find anything unusual, so he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "I don't think there's anything wrong."
Chu Mo frowned slightly, and said: "Maybe I'm suspicious, but I always feel that there is another powerful force brewing behind that dark cloud, this power is overwhelming, almost covering the entire Wanxu Mountain Range, it seems that someone is manipulating something behind it."
Gu Qingwu said: "The more you talk about it, the more mysterious it becomes, who can have such a powerful power Wanxu Mountain Range is completely controlled by the royal family, and now the most powerful people in this huge area are none other than Lingyi, Meng Qijun, Shui Yingying and others, although their cultivation is unfathomable, but if they want to stir up the wind and rain here, I am afraid that they are far from having such ability."
Chu Mo didn't say anything with a smile, he didn't say so much, he didn't want to explain something to Gu Qingwu. In fact, he himself was a little uncertain, but as his cultivation deepened, his comprehension of the Nine Sections True Meaning and the Chaos Spirit Domination Catalogue became deeper and deeper, and some of the underworld powers that he could feel were more acute and profound than ordinary people, allowing him to feel some things that he couldn't have discovered before.
But that feeling is actually very weak, and if it weren't for his self-confidence, he sometimes even thinks it's just an illusion.
"But is this really just an illusion" Chu Mo's eyes bloomed with a strange light, looking at the void from afar, there seemed to be an ethereal green qi inside his dark eyes that ran through the north and south, "What does that mean" There were many doubts in his heart, but the hot blood in his body was constantly boiling, "It seems that this mission is not as smooth as I imagined"
On the top of a lonely peak in the central region of the Wanxu Mountain Range, a tall and strange but seemingly illusory figure stood on it.
The sky here is even darker, the strange night is out of sight, the sky is like black clouds and mist, and there seems to be a faint lightning and thunder inside.
The illusory figure was in the darkness, as if it merged with the surrounding environment, and its tall body became more ethereal and eerie with the rise and fall of the boundless darkness, and at the same time, there was a powerful and strange fluctuation that spread. As the strange fluctuations spread indefinitely, there were many places deep in the depths of the Wanxu Mountain Range that were flooded with a fluttering green qi at the same time.
It is a wonderful gathering of powers, which is peaceful in itself, but there seems to be a violent and passionate power hidden in it, and two completely different breaths are strangely entangled, although they are not integrated, but they complement each other, forming an unbelievable aura.
"Spell Babarusi"
Strings of obscure notes suddenly vibrated in the dark space.
The strange illusory figure followed with a sudden shock in the air.
"Buzz"
A pitch-black array of light that seemed to envelop the entire Wanxu Mountain Range suddenly condensed on the earth.
Because the color of the entire light array is deep and pitch black, under this inky night sky, I don't know whether it is in the mountains or the mountains in the array, plus its breath is faint, condensed but not dispersed, and none of the many strong people in this mountain range feel the abnormal changes.
"Boom"
As the dark light array appeared, an eerie laugh suddenly sounded in the night sky.
The illusory figure suddenly floated out of thin air, his hands spread, making a kind of movement that embraced the world, and his already tall body was even more weirdly climbing, as if it was going to be higher than the sky. An invisible aura spread from his magnificent movements, and seemed to form some kind of strange resonance with the dark light array under his feet, strangely merging together.
The black light array then activated suddenly, slowly revolving around the illusory tall figure in a state that ordinary people could not perceive, and the green qi that spread all over the Wanxu Mountain Range slowly converged towards the illusory tall figure in a way that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.
"Huh"
And at this moment, in the darkness, there was a figure leaping through the mountains at a very fast speed, originally it seemed to be extremely far away, but in a few breaths, it had already torn through the darkness and appeared behind the illusory figure.
The "sir" came and kowtowed respectfully to the illusory figure.
"How are the things I want you to prepare?" an ethereal, indifferent and emotionless voice floated through the air.
"It's all here" The visitor carefully took out a palm-sized brocade bag from his arms and presented it respectfully.
"Whew"
I felt an invisible force float by, and the illusory figure didn't make any movement, and the brocade bag automatically floated in front of him. Subsequently, the mouth of the brocade bag automatically opened, and dense things flew out from it, which turned out to be all kinds of rare treasures.
"Well, yes, you do have some ability, and you have done the things that this seat has explained so quickly, and it is not in vain that this seat has bothered to cultivate you" Although it was praise, the illusory figure's tone was still indifferent, and everything seemed to be insignificant in his eyes, "With these things, the Obsidian Condensation Bead Array will be complete, and the plan of this seat can also be implemented."
As he spoke, all kinds of treasures that flew out of the brocade bag suddenly flew out in all directions, turning into countless streamers and merging into the pitch-black array. And the brocade bag flew back into the hands of the kneeling man on the ground.
The illusory figure said: "This bag will be rewarded to you"
The kneeling person respectfully took the brocade bag, and couldn't help but be very excited in his heart: "Thank you, my lord" This is a treasure of its own space inside, just about the degree of preciousness and rarity, compared to the value of all the treasures that flew out of it before, it can be said that it can be met but not sought, it is practical, and it is a symbol of noble status, I didn't expect to just do something casually to get it, and how can the kneeling person not be happy in the bottom of his heart.
The illusory figure said indifferently: "This is just something insignificant, as long as you are obedient and do things for this seat honestly, you can get far more than you think, do you understand?"
The kneeling man kowtowed respectfully three times in a row, "The villain must bow to the best of his ability, and then die"
"Hmm," the illusory figure said, "You go back first, it's easy to be suspicious after a long time, and I'll notify you of something."
"Yes," replied the kneeling man respectfully, then got up and quietly retreated, and in a few flickeres disappeared into the endless darkness.
"Hum humble place, humble reptile, if it weren't for the hall master's grand plan and hegemony, I really wouldn't be able to stay in this kind of lowly place for a moment" As the man walked away, the illusory figure suddenly let out a heart-palpitating sneer
It's a wasteland.
It is said to be a wasteland, but in fact, everyone knows that this place was not like this before, and judging by the topography, there should have been lofty mountains and mountains standing here.
But that was 10,000 years ago. After the shocking battle of the primeval world, within a radius of thousands of feet, everything on the ground has been turned into powder, and the ashes have been annihilated. And it seems that this is only the result of some kind of powerful attack, otherwise, there is more to this than that.
On the wasteland, the figure of the person is longing, looking from afar, there are about dozens of young men and women surrounding a group of stone demons that seem to be human and non-human, seem to be strange and strange, and look like they are piled up by huge stones to rush left and right, only to see the strong Yuan Force fluctuations and impact, and the sound of rumbling is endless.
"Zhao Neng, Zhang Fang, the two squads led by you tie up the Yuan Trap Formation, the main containment and defense, Yin Jian, Baquan, your two squads are attacking each other, forming the Seven Swords Killing Array and the Rainstorm Tianluo Formation, and the rest of the people, etc., respond to each other"
The group of young men and women were led by a woman in white with a graceful posture, a beautiful appearance but a cold temperament, and the woman in white was attacking, while constantly commanding fiercely, and the scene that should have been chaotic and fighting turned into an orderly siege under her control. But seeing that everyone is divided and standing, although there are many people, there is no chaos between attack and defense, but seeing that their advance and retreat are well-founded, and imply some kind of wonderful formation, so that everyone's strength is condensed and not dispersed, and can play a level far beyond their own cultivation.
On the other hand, the group of stone demons, although the number is not less than that of human beings, but between the actions are their own way, no rules, in the face of the united people, often have the feeling of being an enemy, it is difficult, as time goes by, a large number of companions are killed and injured, and the defeat is inevitable.
"There is no doubt about the outcome. It seems that everyone's experience these days has been quite effective, not only the rapid accumulation of personal practical experience, but also the gradual tacit understanding between cooperation, many times without caring about the light dance conductor, everyone has been able to react naturally according to the situation on the spot"
Chu Mo stayed away from the battlefield, stood with his hands in his hands, staring at the changes in the situation in the battlefield, and couldn't help but bow slightly, "But these stone demons are really weird, obviously their strength is not very good, but their vitality is extremely tenacious, they are obviously defeated all the way, but it is still difficult to really kill them, as long as there is a little chance, they will collectively fight back wildly, it seems that the breath left over from the war back then really has a great impact on the present, not only the landform changes make the Wanxu Mountain Range full of infinite variables, Even the demon beasts that live in it are much stronger and more ferocious than those in the outside world."
It's no wonder that Chu Mo is so emotional, it has been more than half a month since they entered the Wanxu Mountain Range, along the way, in addition to dealing with the environmental danger caused by the change of terrain, the demon beasts they have encountered are also countless, many demon beasts they usually have contact with, but when they really fought, they found that these demon beasts were far more powerful and difficult than the ones they had encountered before, these demon beasts lived in the Wanxu Mountain Range all the year round, and were affected by the strong killing atmosphere in the mountains and all kinds of resentment and hatred. In the end, there was a mutation, not only becoming extremely warlike, but even many unpredictable and wonderful methods, often catching everyone off guard.
For this reason, they also suffered a lot of losses, and many of them were injured to varying degrees. And there are some powerful demon beasts, even Gu Qingwu can't defeat the strength of everyone, and in the end, everyone can retreat with their whole body if Chu Mo makes a move.
And of course, there are some monsters that have never been seen before, or even heard of before. Those demon beasts were all special products formed by the brewing of the special environment of the Wanxu Mountain Range, for example, the stone demon they encountered now was one of them.
The stone was originally lifeless, but under the influence of some special environment, it coincidentally condensed its soul and became a stone demon. This is all the legacy of the war of 10,000 years ago.
There were too many people who died during the primeval war, and although many extremely powerful beings at that time died, a monstrous hatred and resentment in their chests caused their heroic spirits to not be extinguished, and although they have all been wiped out today, ten thousand years later, those countless immortal heroic spirits finally collided with each other and fused together, forming a special kind of resentful spirits, which floated around, or were devoured and absorbed by some powerful demon beasts, Or it is attached to some inanimate object to form a completely new life form.
The formation of the stone demon belongs to the latter.
The resentful spirits not only gave life to these originally dead stones, but also gave them a special ability and strength because of the memory fragments of some ancient powerhouses, one by one not only became tenacious, but also had difficult means, if it weren't for Gu Qingwu and others uniting as one, with subtlety and tacit understanding, among them, the slightly weaker ones might be in danger of their lives if they were one-on-one on the stone demons.
However, although these stone demons are difficult, with Chu Mo's current strength, they can be easily killed. It's just that he won't take it lightly.
Although Chu Mo was invited to protect Gu Qingwu and the others, it had to be when they encountered a crisis that they couldn't deal with, otherwise if he had to do anything if he encountered some trouble, wouldn't he become an old mother. Moreover, in addition to performing tasks, they also came here with the nature of experience, if they wanted Chu Mo's help in everything, it would violate the original intention of experience.
"Woohoo"
"Boom"
Figures crisscrossed one after another, slashing through the air and making a piercing scream, accompanied by the violent turbulent Yuan Force fluctuations, and the group of stone demons with strong vitality were finally separated. The huge body made of solid rocks was shrouded in an overwhelming and powerful attack, and finally overwhelmed it, and gradually shattered, turning into piles of broken stones, and there was no trace of life breath left on it.
This can be regarded as a return to the basics
"Yes, the hard work during this period of time has not been in vain, everyone's progress is remarkable, and it is not in vain to come to this Wanxu Mountain Range to take a walk" As the battle ended, Chu Mo's figure flickered, appeared in front of everyone, and praised with a smile, "However, don't be too complacent, although this battle is clean and neat, overall it is not bad, but there are some details that still have room for improvement, such as Baquan, although the power of the Rainstorm Luo Array you have laid is amazing and covers a wide area, but the power is too scattered, And everyone is still lacking in cooperation, in the battle, although there are four attacks that hit some stone demons hard, but at the same time, they also affect their teammates. This may seem like a minor issue, but against an evenly matched opponent, what may seem trivial is enough to kill you several times. And Zhao Neng"
Subsequently, while everyone was resting and recovering from the vitality consumed in the battle, Chu Mo saw the stitches and spent a full hour giving some guidance to everyone.
This is at Gu Qingwu's request, with Chu Mo's current cultivation and his attainments in formation, although he is not as good as Gu Qingwu in terms of leadership and command, but it is enough to find many problems that everyone is easy to ignore, and he only needs a little bit of allocation, which is enough to make everyone inexhaustible.
It can be said that everyone has been able to progress so quickly during this period of time, in addition to honing and stimulating their own potential in danger, it is also indispensable to him.
Through this half a month of running-in, everyone has been deeply benefited by Chu Mo, and in the face of Chu Mo, in addition to the original awe, they have a little more admiration and trust, and everyone's originally plain relationship is gradually harmonious.
"Okay, let's rest for a while, and then we'll move on" Gu Qingwu also listened carefully on the side, seeing that Chu Mo had nothing to say, he immediately spoke.
"Yes" Everyone agreed with a bang, and then recuperated separately, and by the way, understood and digested the main points of Chu Mo's guidance.
Gu Qingwu came straight to Chu Mo's side, his clear beautiful eyes looked at Chu Mo, who was a little bored, and then his eyes immediately fell on the void shrouded by endless dark clouds, and suddenly said: "I kind of believe what you said a few days ago, these days, we have searched for a lot of places, and now we are about to go deep into the center of the mountain range, but we still haven't found a green source pearl, which is too strange." Especially on a few occasions, the Xuanxuan Light Jian obviously reacted, but in the end it still didn't get anything, which is too unreasonable."
Chu Mo smiled and asked, "Then what?"
Gu Qingwu was slightly stunned and said, "What then?"
Chu Mo said: "I mean, what else have you found besides these?"
Gu Qingwu shook his head, but his clear gaze was fixed on Chu Mo. Based on her understanding of Chu Mo during this time, since the latter said so, it must have discovered something that she hadn't noticed, and those things may be the key to the problem.
Chu Mo didn't seem to notice Gu Qingwu's gaze, but instead turned his head to look into the distance, a wry smile flashed across his face, "You finally have something to gain, not only your own strength has been tempered, but also some unique heavenly and earthly treasures in the Wanxu Mountain Range, even if you can't get a Qingyuan Pearl in the end, it's still worth the trip, but I"
The target of Chu Mo's trip was the Qingyuan Pearl, although some other treasures were also quite precious, but most of them were of little help to him, so he didn't rob them with Gu Qingwu, and he was busy for more than half a month, he could be said to have found nothing. If he continued like this, his mission would be a complete failure.
If he can't find the Qingyuan Pearl here this time, he won't know when he will have to wait until the Wanxu Mountain Range opens again, and if he wants to fight between the royal family of the Dongling Dynasty and some powerful forces, it is basically impossible, if Ao Pi is willing to come out to help him, there is a little hope, but this unreliable eagle doesn't know what kind of state it is in now, Chu Mo has contacted it many times, but it has no response, and he doesn't know how long it will continue to be silent.
Hearing this, Gu Qingwuqiao couldn't help but feel a touch of apology on her face. Although she didn't know the true purpose of Chu Mo's coming here, the latter was after all invited by her and Gu Wujian at the cost of Qingyuan Zhu, and if she was busy in vain in the end, she didn't know how to explain to Chu Mo.
Although she also thought of thanking Chu Mo with other treasures as a reward, according to her observation, Chu Mo had an extraordinary background, and ordinary treasures were only afraid that it would be difficult for him to enter his eyes. If he really can't harvest a Qingyuan Pearl in the end, he won't have to discuss it with Gu Wujian when he goes back, and see where to make up for the latter, he can't let him really run for nothing.
"Someone is coming" Chu Mo's eyes condensed slightly, and he suddenly said loudly.
"Then let's withdraw first" Gu Qingwu immediately calmed down when he heard this, and then quickly turned around and arranged for everyone to get up to deal with the scene, and then found the right direction and left quickly.
"As we go deeper into the Wanxu Mountain Range, everyone walks around in the mountain range without any purpose, and the various teams that originally started from different directions will inevitably gradually converge in the end, and I don't know how many times I can hide, I hope it won't be too troublesome" Chu Mo shrugged his shoulders helplessly, and then unfolded his body and followed the pace of Gu Qingwu and the others.
Although the people who entered the Wanxu Mountain Range were all internal forces belonging to the Dongling Dynasty, they belonged to different factions, and they were competitors to each other, if they met with other teams, in this chaotic area where whoever has the biggest fist is the boss, and there are almost no rules to bind it, in the past, such things as killing people and grabbing treasures also happened from time to time, in order to avoid trouble, Chu Mo and the others generally avoided it, and tried not to conflict with others.
