Mortals: The Daily Life of Hidden Moon Sect

Chapter 617

After Lin Mo put the spirit beast ring back into his bag again, he immediately stood up, walked towards the stone gate with firm steps, and left the secret room in such a hurry.

Almost at the moment when he stepped out of the secret room, Lin Mo's consciousness moved, and he immediately gave the "doll" in the medicine garden an order to guard the cave. Then, he flashed and turned into a green light and rushed out.

In just a moment, Lin Mo appeared outside the cave, quickly escaped to the foot of the mountain, then summoned a beast cart and drove towards the core area of ​​​​Yuncheng.

In the next ten days, Lin Mo devoted himself to all the shops selling classics in Yuncheng, carefully selecting a large number of obscure classics that he had never paid attention to before. These classics are of various types, including secret techniques for cultivation and some leisure readings that are limited to introducing various rare treasures and historical events.

When Lin Mo returned to the cave with these books, he would immediately browse through the contents of these books at an astonishing speed, as if he was looking for some specific information. However, after a night of hard work, he finally walked out of the secret room with a disappointed face, and then left the cave and went to the larger book shop in Yuncheng to continue purchasing a large number of various books.

For five or six consecutive days, Lin Mo repeated the same process almost every day. The huge number of classics he purchased and the high value of the spirit stones he spent were jaw-dropping.

However, on this day, when Lin Mo returned from Yuncheng again, holding an ancient and elegant jade piece and examining it intently, an ecstatic expression suddenly appeared on his face.

"Great, we finally found it. I had expected that even though the True Spirit Origin is extremely rare, it must have been recorded in ancient books."

He muttered to himself, then with a serious face, he began to study the contents of the jade piece in his hand attentively.

Lin Mo's figure was as still as a rock, all his attention was focused on the jade piece in his hand.

I don't know how much time had passed, but his body trembled slightly, and then he let out a long sigh. He threw the jade piece in his hand to the ground, his face filled with extreme loss.

"How could this be? I missed such a great opportunity."

He muttered to himself in disappointment, his palm turned over almost involuntarily, and the small bottle containing the crystal grains instantly appeared.

When the bottle cap was opened, the crystal slowly floated out and remained motionless at the mouth of the bottle.

Looking at this seemingly ordinary crystal grain, Lin Mo's lips moved slightly, but he smiled helplessly.

According to the records in the classics he consulted, the so-called "Origin of the True Spirit" does exist. It is a wisp of residual chaotic energy released by a True Spirit-level existence when the world was first created.

For ordinary people, if they can swallow this thing, it will have incredible effects.

Although it is impossible to evolve into a true spirit of the same origin, there is a great possibility of achieving a complete transformation, rapid progress in cultivation, and even breaking through to the state of fusion.

Considering the scarcity of true spirits in the spiritual world, one can imagine how precious this true spirit origin is.

In addition, over the years, some of them have been discovered and used up by great masters of various races, so the possible true spiritual origins that exist in the spiritual world today are extremely rare.

Moreover, according to the book, this true spirit essence was originally in the form of gas, but because the original power it contains is too strong, others cannot completely refine it within a short period of time after taking it. Therefore, once a certain period of time is exceeded, the true spirit essence will directly condense into a crystalline state in the body of the person who refines it.

The amount of true spiritual essence contained in this exquisite crystal is far beyond our imagination. Depending on individual physical conditions, some people may need hundreds of years or even longer to fully refine it.

When Lin Mo saw this passage, he couldn't help but feel ecstatic. However, the description below made his heart tighten, and it was like a splash of cold water, sobering him up.

The following article details that once the true spirit essence is transformed into a crystal form, it means that the true essence of the person being refined has been completely assimilated. Therefore, the true essence in the crystal can no longer be absorbed and refined by others.

Once other practitioners try to forcibly absorb the true energy inside the crystal, it will revert to ordinary power of heaven and earth and return to the embrace of nature.

Finally, the author specifically emphasized that this assimilation process is extremely thorough and almost impossible to reverse through human means. Therefore, practitioners who obtain the power of origin must keep this in mind.

After reading all the instructions, Lin Mo was naturally dumbfounded and shocked.

At this moment, he stared closely at the True Source crystals floating out of the small bottle in front of him, with an extremely complicated expression on his face.

"What is written in the book may not be absolutely accurate. Anyway, I have to give it a try." After a moment's silence, Lin Mo whispered to himself unwillingly.

Then, he suddenly stretched out one hand, made a hand gesture, and pointed his other finger lightly into the crystal void.

With a light "puff" sound, a beam of green light shot out, and after flashing quickly a few times, it firmly wrapped the crystal grain inside.

Lin Mo's face was solemn as he continuously cast several spells, all of which merged into the green light.

The crystals in the cyan light suddenly trembled slightly, began to spin, and then their color also changed.

It was transparent at first, then gradually turned to light red, then from light red to dark black. Finally, under the flickering of spiritual light, it turned into a dazzling golden color like gold.

Seeing this, Lin Mo narrowed his eyes slightly and the magic formula in his hand suddenly changed.

Countless runes suddenly appeared in the green light that enveloped the crystal grains, dancing around the crystal grains and forming a miniature magic circle in the blink of an eye.

And that golden crystal is located exactly in the center of the magic circle.

Seeing this, Lin Mo spat out a wisp of green infant fire from his mouth, which disappeared in an instant and merged into the micro magic circle.

Accompanied by a dull sound, the entire rune array was filled with light, and the blue infant fire easily merged into the array.

Then, wisps of green flames emerged from all corners of the magic circle at the same time, tightly surrounding the crystal grains and began forging.

As the green flames rolled, the golden crystals remained motionless at first. However, as time passed, the golden light on the surface flashed more and more frequently, the brightness gradually increased, and finally a low humming sound was emitted.

When Lin Mo saw this scene, his heart sank. Before he could adjust the magic spell in his hand, a muffled sound came from the magic circle.

The crystal grains mysteriously disappeared without a trace, and were replaced by a ball of golden light mist the size of an egg.

The ball of light mist was spinning, and a thunderous sound came from inside. Then it suddenly expanded dozens of times, becoming a volume of about ten feet, and it was still expanding. The blue flames and light haze wrapped around it were instantly broken.

Lin Mo's face instantly showed a look of panic. Although his feet were not lifted from the ground, it seemed as if there were pulleys under his body. He immediately slid silently towards a corner of the secret room. At the same time, he gently waved one of his sleeves forward.

With a flash of dazzling light, a small crystal clear shield instantly appeared in front of him. Then, after a swaying, it turned into a behemoth several feet high, tightly shielding the front of him.

Almost at the moment when Lin Mo had just completed these actions, the Yuan magnetic divine light finally made a crisp sound of shattering, and countless golden rays of light penetrated out from it.

Faced with such a situation, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a heaviness deep in his heart, but the magic power in his body suddenly gushed out and was all poured into the giant shield in front of him.

At the same time, a golden light emanated from the surface of his skin, making his skin instantly turn golden and brilliant, and golden scales appeared.

Obviously, he has prepared himself mentally for a violent impact. As for whether this secret room or even the entire cave can remain in its original state, it depends on God's will.

However, an unexpected scene happened.

The golden mist that broke free from its restraints did not continue to expand and explode wildly. Instead, it transformed into a dazzling beam of light in an instant, penetrating directly through the roof of the secret room and breaking through the air towards the sky.

The roof and the restrictions set up around it were as fragile as paper and were instantly pierced by the beam of light, forming a half-foot wide passage.

The golden mist also disappeared without a trace in the secret room in an instant.

Lin Mo looked up in surprise, and saw a few rays of sunlight shining directly through the holes. Soon, a chilling and powerful spiritual movement came from the air, and the vitality of the whole sacred mountain seemed to be violently churning at this moment.

His lips trembled slightly, but he still stretched out a hand and cast a white spell, which instantly sank into the top of the secret room and disappeared.

Immediately afterwards, a dazzling white light suddenly appeared on the top of the secret room that was originally pierced, and the entire hole healed rapidly at an astonishing speed, returning to its original state in the blink of an eye.

As for Lin Mo himself, a green light flashed, and he instantly turned into a streak of speeding wild goose and flew directly out of the secret room.

After flashing several times, his escape light gradually converged, and Lin Mo appeared above the cave. He looked up at the sky with a frown on his face.

At this moment, faint golden storms appeared in the sky, raging and roaring in the sky.

In the low-altitude area of ​​the golden storm, there are colorful spots of light everywhere. They are converging here from all directions with an extremely powerful momentum.

When Lin Mo saw this scene, he was shocked and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He was glad that he did not directly swallow and refine the crystal, otherwise the consequences would be so tragic that one could imagine how tragic it would be.

However, such a huge commotion naturally attracted the attention of cultivators of various races who had caves on Lingshan Mountain.

Spiritual lights flickered everywhere in Lingshan, and figures of various colors appeared one after another. Some familiar people even gathered together, pointing and discussing the strange vision in the sky.

Seeing this, Lin Mo couldn't help but reach out and touch the sweat on his forehead, while quickly thinking of a response strategy in his mind. If someone came to ask, how should he find a suitable excuse to cover up this matter?
However, at this moment, a burst of arrogant laughter suddenly came from a corner of Lingshan.

"Ha, who on earth is testing a new secret technique here that can actually summon so much and such pure heaven and earth energy? I need a large amount of heaven and earth energy as raw material to refine a treasure. This saves me a lot of effort."

As soon as the words fell, a blazing red light rushed from below, and in an instant it was about to rush into the sky. However, at this moment, the red light suddenly burst into a blazing flame several feet high, and in the blink of an eye it turned into a red fire dragon more than ten feet long, shaking its head and tail, and opening its bloody mouth.

With a deafening roar, a dazzling red glow burst out from the fire dragon's mouth. The countless light spots in the air and the seemingly terrifying golden storm were swept away by the red glow in just a few breaths.

The red fire dragon, which was originally only about twenty feet in size, suddenly released a strong red light after a wild laugh, and turned into a human-shaped figure about ten feet tall, slowly floating in the sky.

The old man was over sixty years old, with a rough face, silver hair, and wearing a purple robe. He was holding an object in his hand and looking at it with a smug look on his face.

It was a scarlet gourd only half a foot high, with flame-shaped patterns and a glowing red dragon carved on its surface. It was almost identical to the fire dragon that had transformed before.

"Ah! It's Old Monster Xu."

"When did this old monster return?"

"It seems that this old monster's magical power is more powerful than before."

When the many foreigners below saw the purple-robed old man, they were in a commotion. Most of them felt as if they had seen him before and talked among themselves in low voices.

Lin Mo was also stunned when he saw this scene, but when his spiritual sense swept over the old man in the air, he immediately realized that the other party was a strong man in the late stage of the Refinement Void Realm.

This kind of strength is undoubtedly the top existence in this sacred mountain where no one in the Fusion Stage lives. However, it seems that this cannot make so many aliens who are also in the Void Refining Stage feel so afraid of him.

Lin Mo couldn't help but feel a little confused.

However, since the celestial phenomenon caused by the Origin Crystal had been easily collected by this person and did not attract too much attention, he naturally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, a green light flashed around Lin Mo, and he immediately turned into a green rainbow again and rushed towards the cave below.

When he returned to the cave, he first used magic to repair the restrictions outside the cave and inside the secret room, and then he returned to the secret room and sat cross-legged with peace of mind.

With a wave of his hand, a black light swept down, and the figure of the Soul-Devouring Beast appeared again, floating lightly in close proximity.

Lin Mo stared at the beast for a long time, and finally sighed helplessly.

After experiencing the experiment just now, he no longer had any doubts about the contents of the classics. He had no choice but to let the True Unicorn Origin be gradually devoured by the Crying Soul Beast.
