#1016 - Adjustment strategy
On Luofu Mountain outside Xizhou, Ouyang Dongqing returned here cursing.
Seeing his appearance, combined with what he saw with his [Spirit Eyes], Chen Mo roughly guessed most of it.
"Failed?"
"What the hell are these Immortal Lords? They are just a bunch of blood suckers!"
Chen Mo, who was originally thinking of saying a few words of comfort, immediately sensed something was wrong: "What do you mean? What did you see in there?"
"Let's go, let's go. I shouldn't have come to this shabby secret place!"
"No?"
"I don't want to say it!" Ouyang Dongqing acted very tough.
"Cut off your funding."
The other party suddenly stopped and said, "Let's talk somewhere else. This place is too close to the secret realm. I'm afraid that guy will overhear me saying bad things about him."
"good!"
Xiao Kang took off into the air, and the four of them returned to Pingdu Island in less than an hour.
With the teleportation array and Xiao Kang, one can reach any place in the entire Wuchi Kingdom in just one hour.
After returning to the master's hall, Ouyang Dongqing told the story.
After breaking through the Meteor and Flying Fire Array, the second level in the outer area is the Ink and Wash Mountains and Rivers Scroll.
It was a landscape painting created by the use of talismans. Ouyang Dongqing mentioned that his understanding of talismans had deepened here.
Landscape scrolls were originally considered to be something that the art of refining weapons was good at.
But it seems that without the talisman, the weapon will only have a form but will lack its real function.
Therefore, Ouyang Dongqing stayed in this scroll for a whole day in order to study its principles, and said that he might go to cooperate with people from the Equipment Refining Hall in the next step. Now he has an idea, and it depends on whether it can be realized!
In the ink-and-wash scroll of mountains and rivers, he found a lot of talisman paper and spiritual ink.
He also brought some back.
Then he took it out and showed it to Chen Mo.
"What grade is this?"
"I think it should be at least level seven or eight!"
Chen Mo entered a state of intensive study and carefully identified it. As he had guessed, he had never seen any of the components of the talisman ink before!
This is already a high-level resource.
With the current foundation of Wuchi State, it is simply not enough to possess it.
Chen Mo's answer made Ouyang Dongqing feel a little disappointed, but he continued to narrate:
After leaving the Ink and Wash Mountain and River Scroll, we arrived at the core area of the secret realm, where there were also two tests.
There was a place called [Tianfu Palace]. He spent a lot of effort to master the runes on the nine jade tablets of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, thunder, yin and yang.
These runes are the decomposition of the runes he uses in daily life.
In other words, it can also be considered an origin rune.
Of course, it took him two days to comprehend these runes alone, which meant he had completed the test of this level.
"I saw four other people came out with you. Did they also complete the test?"
Ouyang Dongqing continued:
Later, he successfully entered the center of the secret realm, which was a platform for questioning one's conscience.
The method of drawing the Chaos Talisman is recorded on the Platform of Inquiry. The complete version needs to be copied with the soul as the pen, and each word copied consumes ten years of life.
It is far from comparable to the [Chaos Spirit Hidden Talisman] they bought at the auction.
After spending ten or twenty years of his life, Ouyang Dongqing successfully comprehended this spell.
Afterwards, he easily faced the illusion of obsession created by the Questioning Platform and reached the last step.
And the last step was to ask him to worship Lingzhuan Immortal Lord as his master, and to introduce Lingzhuan Immortal Lord's name into talismans and spread them throughout the world, so that the talisman master could practice the method of summoning gods.
"What is a petition to the gods?"
"I just borrowed the power of those guys. I felt something was wrong in Longhu Mountain, so I went out on my own. After decades, I am expected to help the evildoers? How is that possible!"
"That lightning tribulation was also like this?"
"That's about right!" Ouyang Dongqing slapped his thigh, "Maybe the person who struck me with lightning that day was this damn Lingzhuan Immortal Lord! He doesn't look that good, but he has beautiful thoughts. He still wants to conquer me? Dream on!"
Chen Mo shrugged.
He couldn't judge anything.
After all, this is his own choice. The opportunity was created for him. It is his business whether to choose it or not.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
At least in Chen Mo's eyes, Ouyang Dongqing can be regarded as the most talented and intelligent person.
Even the descendant of the Great Thousand Immortal Lord is inferior to him.
However, only I can satisfy this guy's talent. As for the consumption of spiritual plants, others can forget about it.
Seeing Ouyang Dongqing was about to leave, Chen Mo suddenly thought of something.
"Why do I remember that you were driven out of Longhu Mountain?"
“Bullshit!”
He spat, jumped off the top of the mountain, and headed straight for the weapon refining hall.
After the other party left, Chen Mo was the only one left on the empty mountain top.
He gazed into the distance, his thoughts still lingering on Xizhou.
The trip took him more than half a month in total. Lou Jiuchong did appear, but Ouyang Dongqing did not become the inheritor of the secret realm as he had originally imagined.
As a result, the plan to find out the true situation of Shennong Sect from Lou Jiuzhong was completely ruined.
This kind of thing, no matter who asks, is unlikely to get any answer.
Not to mention asking him to go against the Shennong Sect.
"Does that mean we can only wait a little longer?"
Originally, there were still more than two years before the incarnation tree bore fruit. Chen Mo didn't know whether the time acceleration contained in the Shennong Sect's Good Weather Formation could be superimposed on his [Ripening]. If so, it would still take a year and a half.
Although for a monk, a year and a half is nothing.
But I’m afraid something unexpected will happen in the middle.
After hesitating for a while, Chen Mo finally made a decision.
Wait a little longer!
Now is not the time to take risks.
As long as they don't break the window paper of Shennong Sect, the other party won't do anything to them.
Therefore, even if there is a stagnation in practice, you can still continue step by step.
At least they stopped at the first level of Lianxu, but whether it was Motai Mountain or the Nine Cities of Beizhou, there were still many people at the peak of Huashen who never had the chance!
After making the decision, Chen Mo called Gu Fan and Qin Xi who were avoiding the meeting. The former arranged for him to go to Zhongzhou and tell Nie Yuanzhi to discuss the matter of growing Qilin rice as soon as possible.
The latter asked him to go to Beizhou and invite Huangfu Yuan over.
If you want to stop her from taking risks again, you have to come up with a reason that she can accept. (End of this chapter)
