Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

"Do you really not regret being my disciple?" Ling Qing asked again.

"Disciples have no regrets."

"Very good!" Liao Qing nodded slightly, his expression became more solemn, and then said,
"From today on, you are my third direct disciple. Although you cannot pass on my major skills, you will be treated the same as your two senior sisters, without any favoritism.

Since you are my disciple, you can't just do it casually. The initiation ceremony must be held. We will start preparations after returning to the sect as a master..."

"Everything depends on Master's arrangements." Mei Ning naturally did not dare to have any objections, but the other party's instigation of troops and crowds showed that they valued her.

On the other hand, Mo Juren on the side felt a bit 'slap in the face' after hearing Qing's words.There are four apprentices that he has accepted, and there is also a young disciple. They all seem to be able to get by with a cup of tea. Compared with the other disciples, they are indeed a bit perfunctory.

This is also related to his character. He really finds it troublesome to deal with many red tapes.

By this time, Mei Ning's matter was finally settled.

Han Li did not delay any further, said goodbye again, and then left alone without hesitation.

As for Mei Ning, since she already has a master, she is no longer an outsider and is no longer a rootless Ping in Tiannan.At this moment, he was standing quietly next to Qing, with a well-behaved expression on his face.

This appearance immediately made him smile affectionately, and he became very fond of this young apprentice he had accidentally picked up, and then he quietly asked about other information about the other party.

The two masters and apprentices chatted quietly to enhance their relationship. It was inconvenient for Mo Juren to be present, so he immediately left the hall and walked outside.

After walking out of the 'Yunmeng Tower', he couldn't help but feel something in his heart when he saw the monks coming and going on the street, as well as the many shops selling various materials.

Yunmeng Mountain has excellent spiritual veins, rich products, and various rare treasures, and the market here is a distribution center for various resources, so you may have what you need.

I have nothing to do at the moment, so I might as well take a stroll, just to pass the time.

With this thought in his mind, Mo Juren walked around the city leisurely.Fortunately, he actually found a special material.

This is a special spiritual material called a 'yin blood stone'. It looks no different from an ordinary 'red blood stone'. If Mo Juren had not had a strong sense of consciousness, he would have ignored it.

Although there is only one word difference between these two kinds of stones, their values ​​are vastly different. The former is comparable to many top-quality materials, but the latter is rich in reserves and cannot be sold at a high price.

The shop owner obviously didn't recognize the stone, so Mo Juren would not tell the true situation, so he picked up a big stone and turned away under the warm greeting of the shop owner.

After getting a 'Yin Blood Stone', it was as if all the good luck had been wiped out, and I never encountered a needed material again in the following time.

Mo Juren didn't care about this. After all, a small market of this size couldn't compare with some big commercial cities. It was already good to be able to gain something, so why expect too much?
With this mentality, I continued to wander around the market until evening came and the sky got dark before I returned to my residence again.

Soon after, the sky was completely dark, and the two figures left the 'Yunmeng Tower' at the same time, and then walked out of Fangshi and sneaked straight into the depths of the Yunmeng Mountains.

……

The Yunmeng Mountain Range is extremely large, stretching tens of thousands of miles from east to west, and is the main mountain range of the entire Nanzhou.There are countless subsidiary branches extending from it.

Even the residences of the three sects only occupy the three core areas in the main mountain range that have the most spiritual energy. Although the rest of the places are nominally under the jurisdiction of the three, they do not restrict disciples from other sects from exploring.

Of course, this kind of exploration is not arbitrary, but is restricted by some rules jointly formulated by the three factions, such as the specified time, the specified quantity, etc.

These rules naturally have no impact on Mo Juren and Ling Qing.

It was too easy for two Nascent Soul Stage powerhouses to quietly enter the depths of the mountains. Even the supreme elders of the three sects would not notice anything.

Not long after, the two of them arrived near the 'Green Trace Swamp' shown on the map.

"It doesn't seem to be any different here." Under the shade of a tree somewhere, the two of them had stopped. After realizing their feelings, they immediately let go of their spiritual senses to explore, but found nothing.

"Don't worry, look for it again." Mo Juren probably guessed the reason. The place where the 'Zombie Mandrill' was imprisoned should be equipped with some kind of high-level concealment formation. This is why it has not been exposed for so many years. Discover.

However, with the strength of his consciousness comparable to that of the late Nascent Soul, after careful observation for a while, he finally found some clues.

Looking at the area several hundred feet away from the edge of the swamp, he saw a huge mountain with no peak visible when he looked up and said with a smile: "It's inside that huge mountain. Let's go in and have a look."

As he spoke, he hugged the other person's slender waist and flew straight towards the giant mountain. When they approached the mountain wall, a layer of earthy yellow light filled the whole body and enveloped the two of them.

The next moment, he was directly submerged into it.

This huge mountain was obviously not small. The two of them used the Earth Escape Technique to travel a distance of several hundred feet, and suddenly escaped from the rocks and entered a closed space.

There was a stone chamber in front of his sight, with no doors or windows. Mo Juren let go of his spiritual consciousness to explore, but as soon as he got closer, he was immediately bounced back by some weird force, making it impossible to penetrate at all.

"It's really not that simple!" Mo Juren thought to himself. Even with the strength of his spiritual consciousness, he could not penetrate into the stone chamber. This shows that the restrictions contained in it are very powerful in evading detection.

Liao Qing next to her had obviously encountered the same situation. She looked forward with a solemn expression and asked curiously:

"What exactly is inside?"

"It may be a little different from what you think, and I can't explain it. I'll know it as soon as I go in." Mo Juren smiled, and then said in a deep voice towards the stone room,
"Friends inside, can you let go of the restrictions?"

"I am currently in retreat, and it is not convenient to see guests. You two Taoists should please come back." A strange female voice came out, with an undisguised coldness, and she refused directly.

"The two of us finally came here, but we were turned away like this. Fellow Taoist, it would be inappropriate to treat guests like this." Mo Juren smiled coldly, but the aura around him was rising rapidly.

"You...what are you going to do?" Apparently the other party sensed this change in momentum, and couldn't help but feel fear in his heart, and his tone was trembling.

"What to do?" Mo Juren sneered again, "Since Your Excellency is so ignorant of praise, then Mo can only do it himself."

After the words fell, he grabbed Qing and moved towards the stone room, and then punched out suddenly.There was only a crisp sound, and the restriction on the outer surface of the stone chamber was easily blasted open to create a passage.

The two of them entered in a flash, and the passage quickly began to close, returning to its original state in the blink of an eye.

Passing through the passage filled with yellow light, the two people soon appeared inside the stone chamber.The space inside is not large, and I can see everything clearly with just a quick glance.

Except for a stone platform built more than ten feet in front, there was nothing else nearby, and it seemed very deserted.On the stone platform, a beautiful middle-aged woman was sitting cross-legged.

Different from Mo Juren's calm expression, Liao Qing was a little surprised, and his eyes were looking at the other person with curiosity.

This woman was wearing a black dress and a wooden hairpin on her head. Although her makeup was simple, it could not hide her beautiful face at all.His face was slightly pale, but his crystal eyes were full of color, with a layer of gleam covering them.

What surprised her even more was that only one arm of the other party was intact, and the sleeves on the other half were empty.And above his knees where he was sitting cross-legged, there was a snow-white little fox lying down.

Seemingly curious, Xiaohu's clear eyes kept blinking, and he also looked at the visitor intelligently.

At this moment, the beautiful woman in black dress was in a completely different state of mind. For these two uninvited guests who suddenly arrived, she was not only shocked, but also fearful.

The reason is also very simple. The strength of the two of them is too strong, especially the man, who is like the deep starry sky, making it impossible for her to see anything through.And even that woman was not something she could compete with at this moment.

There are strong men in the Nascent Soul stage, and there are two of them at once. I am afraid that today will be in bad luck.

"What is the purpose of two Taoist friends coming here uninvited? I ask myself, I have lived in seclusion here for many years and have never offended any enemies?" The beautiful woman in black skirt knew that she was outmatched, so how could she dare to come forward, so she could only He asked in a low voice.

"I'm not an enemy, but you're not a good person either. Staying in this world will be a disaster after all. It's better to be reincarnated as soon as possible." Mo Juren knew everything clearly, so naturally he didn't bother to talk nonsense with the other party. I plan to take action directly.

The beautiful woman in black dress suddenly changed her face and shouted in shock and anger:

"You and I have no grievances, so why are we so hard on each other? As long as you can stop, I am willing to pay any price, including the many rare treasures in my collection."

"Price!" Mo Juren sneered,
"You, a mandrill who has been dead for countless years, what do you have to give? As for treasures and the like, will they belong to me if I kill you?"

"You...how did you know!" The beautiful woman in black dress never expected that the other party knew about her situation, and had such a cruel and domineering personality, as if she was a demon.

"Zombie Mandrill!" Liao Qing was also a little surprised. He didn't expect this beautiful young woman to be such an evil thing?Moreover, his ability to conceal and transform was not simple, even she was fooled.

As the name suggests, mandrills are a type of zombie, but unlike those ordinary walking zombies, or even ordinary zombies that are already psychic, the conditions for their formation are extremely harsh.

The specific methods are no longer available, but two points are indeed recorded.

First, only the corpse of a strong person at the Nascent Soul stage or above has the possibility to become a mandrill. Second, the monk must have spiritual roots of wood or earth attributes, and he must also be a heavenly spiritual root monk.

Only when these two points are met can the corpse be resurrected through spiritual channels with the help of the power of stone and wood.

In addition, another condition is needed to form a mandrill, that is, the dead monk must have boundless resentment, so that his soul will not want to be reincarnated after death and remain on the corpse.

Over time, and some other coincidences, the soul can be re-melted with the corpse, and finally a monster like a mandrill will emerge.

The conditions for its formation are so complex. Naturally, its strength is far beyond ordinary zombies and can be compared to evil things such as ghosts and demons.

This kind of half-human, half-corpse, or half-corpse and half-ghost existence has retained some memories of his life. He has been practicing Kung Fu since he was born, and he died because of injustice. He has great resentment, and almost all of them are murderous. , is a real evil thing.

Even in the ancient world of immortality, this kind of monster was talked about by everyone.But now, this object has almost disappeared and only exists in some records.

I was really surprised to meet one today.

"How you know it is not important, besides, Mo has no interest in explaining it to you." Mo Juren sneered, and the third eye on his forehead opened instantly. In an instant, rich golden light burst out, filling the entire stone room.

"Ah... what is this... no... stop..." The screams kept ringing out in the golden light, and bursts of strange dark green mist kept emerging. Unfortunately, after encountering the golden light, it didn't even last a moment. Unable to support it, it was purified in an instant.

The evil-breaking golden light cannot even resist the pure demonic energy of the demon clan, let alone a small corpse mandrill on the other side. The corpse energy released by it cannot be eliminated except for its toxicity, and it has no other effect at all.

The poisonous mist that burst out was directly blocked by a mana light curtain, making it impossible to get close to the two of them.

This is also the mandrill's unlucky fate. The Han Li he met in his original destiny line was only in the late stage of pill formation and could still be toiled. But now he met a strong man like Mo Juren and suppressed him to death in an understatement. No chance to fight back.

In addition, the opponent's main soul is still sealed in the box, but even if it is released, it is still impossible to be Mo Juren's opponent, let alone the new consciousness now.

In just a moment, the screams stopped abruptly, and survival was theoretically impossible.

However, Mo Juren's eyes flashed, and a sneer disappeared in an instant.He slowly closed his third eye, and the golden light that filled the stone room dissipated.

There is no beautiful young woman on the stone platform at this moment. What is there is just a body that is neither human nor ghost. It is covered with dense thick green hair and exudes a strong smell of corpse. .

The corpse was wrapped in thin silver chains, which not only trapped its arms and legs, but most of them passed through its chest and back, making it look like it was completely imprisoned.

"This thing is so vicious, why didn't the monks who dealt with her in the past kill it directly, but sealed it here?" Ling Qing said with some confusion.

"There must be some reason." Mo Juren shook his head slightly. Although the corpse scabbard has amazing defense and is difficult to damage with gold and iron, it is not truly invincible. Some top-level treasures can still tear it apart.

The fact that many parts of his body were pierced by thin silver chains was enough to prove that the person who took action could kill him, but why he didn't do that and instead sealed him here is unknown.

He suddenly remembered what the other party said when he deceived Han Li in the original work. Maybe not all of them were lies. There should be some truth in them? (End of chapter)
