Mortals: The Daily Life of Hidden Moon Sect

Chapter 621

"I had this thought out of helplessness. However, after that fellow Daoist resolved the evil spirit, he seemed calm on the surface, but I could feel that if I hesitated for a moment and said the word 'no', I was afraid that fellow Daoist Lin would immediately attack me without mercy."

"His magical power is almost comparable to that of a Saint Clan beginner, and the few life-saving magic weapons I refined have been used up in the Magic Gold Mountains. Facing his ruthless methods, I have no confidence that I can escape safely."

The Crystal Clan woman replied with a wry smile.

"Unfortunately, I also suffered heavy losses in the Magic Gold Mountains. If not, with the spatial restrictions here, the two of us might have a chance to keep this thing together."

The blue Qilin also seemed quite depressed and said.

"Forget it. Although this magic armor is extremely magical, it is still a magic weapon. Even if I keep it, I can't perform rituals to control it. On the contrary, I will offend this powerful ally I just made. It's really not worth it."

The Crystal Clan woman's expression changed constantly. After taking several deep breaths, she spoke firmly.

"Haha, it's not entirely unreasonable for you to look at the problem this way. In that case, let's give this opportunity to that kid. As for whether there are other secrets hidden in it, it depends on the boy's luck. It's just a pity that this magic armor might have been an opportunity for you."

After a moment's silence, the Qilin Shadow could only sigh slightly.

"With you by my side, how can I lack opportunities?"

Xianxian seemed to have let it go and chuckled.

"Indeed. What you need most right now is not opportunity, but to improve your own cultivation and magical powers as soon as possible. Otherwise, even if you have many opportunities, it will be in vain if you are unable to control them. Well, let's not talk about this for now. Have you made any progress on the matter I asked you to investigate?"

The Qilin phantom suddenly changed the subject and asked.

"It has not been found yet. It is said that the whereabouts of the item is only known by a few Saint-level experts. It is quite difficult to find it."

When Xianxian heard this, she looked embarrassed.

"Then you need to search more carefully. If you can't get that item, even if I take you to that ancient ruins, you won't be able to enter smoothly."

The blue Qilin said calmly.

"Of course I know about this matter. I will try to obtain the item through other means, such as purchasing or borrowing it from the disciples of these powerful men."

Xianxian's eyes flickered, and after thinking for a long time, she spoke slowly.

While the Crystal Clan woman and the Qilin phantom were discussing their respective plans, Lin Mo was on his way back to the cave.

On the animal cart, he seemed to be sitting there calmly, but deep down his heart was in turmoil and it was difficult to calm down.

He never expected that just the simple task of repairing the magic armor would almost cause a huge crisis.

He suddenly reached into the other sleeve and touched something cold and soft.

There was a green jade box hidden in his sleeves. The repaired armor was lying quietly inside.

However, the surface of the jade box was covered with more than ten forbidden talismans.

Lin Mo's fingertips slid gently across the surface of the jade box, and he couldn't help but recall the scene at that time.

On that day not long ago, the magic armor was being repaired.

The initial work went exceptionally smoothly and everything was as planned. However, in the second half, which was also the most critical part, various problems of varying sizes arose one after another.

Sometimes, the mysterious magic circle stopped working for no reason; sometimes, the historic bronze tripod cracked inexplicably.

However, in the face of these tests, Lin Mo and the woman named Xianxian worked together and finally successfully overcame the difficulties.

However, surprisingly, just as the magic armor successfully completed the last repair procedure and flew out of the bronze tripod, suddenly, a cold and powerful divine consciousness forcibly penetrated the barriers of space.

Then, without any warning, he descended into this small space and rushed towards the magic armor without hesitation.

Faced with the sudden situation, Miss Xianxian was obviously a little surprised.

Fortunately, Lin Mo had seen this kind of spiritual attack that transcended realms before, so he immediately shot out a divine thunder to ward off evil spirits, dispersing most of them, and at the same time quickly retreated to protect his own safety.

Under normal circumstances, if this spiritual consciousness fails to achieve its purpose, it should immediately break through the barrier of space again and escape from the scene.

Unexpectedly, this divine consciousness did not retreat, but instead once again plunged into the pure demonic energy in the magic circle, causing all the demonic energy to gather together, and a hideous demon beast was about to condense into a physical form.

Seeing this scene, Lin Mo knew that he could not let it get its wish, so he immediately gathered all his strength and released all the remaining evil-repelling divine thunder in his body. It was like a thousand thunders roaring together, smashing hard at the demon beast.

Although the demon beast's original body can display unfathomable magical powers, even its unformed demon body condensed by a trace of its thoughts can withstand more than a dozen attacks from the evil-repelling divine thunder.

However, when hundreds of golden arcs of electricity rushed out from Lin Mo's hands, the demon beast's consciousness and condensed demon body did not even have the chance to howl before being turned into nothing by the golden electric light.

However, as a result, both Lin Mo and Miss Xianxian deeply realized the extraordinary nature of this magic armor, as if its origin far exceeded their expectations.

Lin Mo naturally noticed the hesitation of the Crystal Clan woman at that moment, so he remained calm on the surface, but deep down he was already on high alert, paying close attention to whether she would break her promise.

In the end, although Miss Xianxian obviously showed great reluctance, she still allowed Lin Mo to successfully put the magic armor into the jade box, which made Lin Mo breathe a sigh of relief.

After this incident, Lin Mo's favorability towards this Crystal Clan woman naturally increased a bit, but he did not stay there for too long. After simply expressing his gratitude, he left the other party's space and boarded the beast cart.

At this moment, he gently stroked the jade box in the envelope with his fingers, and was full of curiosity about this repaired magic armor. However, since he was on the beast cart, he could not take it out for research immediately.

Lin Mo had to suppress his curiosity, took back the jade box, and then sat in the car and practiced with full concentration. A few hours later, the beast car arrived at the foot of Lingshan Mountain.

After Lin Mo got off the car, he threw a spiritual stone to the driver as a reward, and then rushed to the top of the mountain leisurely. This mountain, although it has a superior geographical location, is located on the hillside of the beautiful Lingshan Mountain.

However, since other alien practitioners on Lingshan Mountain have been traveling outside for a long time, or choose to practice diligently in their own caves, few people have set foot here.

Therefore, although the mountain is vast, it seems to be sparsely populated from the outside world.

However, this time, Lin Mo controlled the escape light and quietly landed on the mountainside, but he unexpectedly found that there were already two uninvited guests waiting in front of the cave.

One of them, wearing a red robe, was about sixty years old. He was the "Old Monster Xu" who had displayed powerful magical powers not long ago and used a vermilion gourd to absorb all the Yuan Energy of Heaven and Earth that had been transformed from the True Unicorn Origin that he had lost control of.

At this moment, the gourd he used that day was still hanging around his waist.

When Lin Mo showed up, he was sitting cross-legged in meditation in front of the stone gate of the cave with a handsome boy who was only fourteen or fifteen years old.

When Lin Mo saw this scene, he couldn't help but show surprise.

As if he had sensed his master's return, Old Monster Xu suddenly opened his eyes, with a gleam in his eyes, which happened to meet Lin Mo's gaze.

"You must be Brother Lin who recently moved here, right?" Old Monster Xu asked with a smile.

"It's me. Brother Xu, you've come to visit unexpectedly. Could it be that you've come all the way to find me?" Lin Mo's complexion returned to normal and he responded in a humble tone.

As a person who could make all the other races of the same level in Lingshan feel fear, he must have extraordinary magical powers. He naturally didn't want to easily provoke such a person.

"Haha, that's true. I came here today to visit you. This is my direct descendant. Come and greet you, Brother Lin."

Old Monster Xu's answer was quite dramatic. After laughing, he directly introduced the handsome young man next to Lin Mo and motioned him to come forward and greet him.

"Junior Xu Lunxiang, nice to meet Senior Lin."

Upon hearing this, the handsome young man immediately took a step forward and bowed respectfully to Lin Mo.

"Nephew, there is no need to be so polite."

Lin Mo had already used his divine sense to investigate the boy's cultivation and found that he actually had the strength equivalent to the peak of the human race's foundation building stage, and was only one step away from the Jindan stage. Considering the boy's age, he was truly gifted.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, I wonder if my visit this time is a bit abrupt?" Old Monster Xu asked with a chuckle again.

"How dare I speculate like that. It is an honor for me to have the honorable Daoist Fellow Xu come to my humble home. If I had not been out for some business recently, I should have gone out earlier to greet you. Please, Brother Xu, come in and have a chat."

Lin Mo was full of doubts in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface. He waved his sleeves and led Old Monster Xu into the cave.

A ray of green light flew out from the cave, and the stone door quietly opened in the light, revealing a white passage inside, with the ground paved with exquisite green jade.

Old Monster Xu did not refuse anymore. He thanked him repeatedly and took the young man to follow Lin Mo into the room.

As soon as he entered the cave, Lin Mo immediately released his spiritual thoughts and contacted the second soul that stayed there.

Upon learning that nothing unusual had happened in the cave in the past three days except for Old Monster Xu and the other two, he finally felt relieved and led Old Monster Xu and the other two leisurely to the hall.

After some polite exchanges, Old Monster Xu and Lin Mo sat in the guest of honor seats respectively. The young man stood silently behind Old Monster Xu, with his hands clasped in front of his chest.

"As Fellow Daoist Lin has seen, I have been in seclusion for a long time and have only recently entered the world of mortals. I didn't expect that when I showed up here, I would learn that Fellow Daoist Lin has become a new guest of Lingshan. Coincidentally, Fellow Daoist Lin has enjoyed the VIP treatment of Elder Qianjizi. What's going on? Have Fellow Daoist Lin and Elder Qianjizi ever had any interactions?"

As soon as Old Monster Xu sat down, he asked a question with a smile on his face that surprised Lin Mo.

"Haha, I'm just a junior from another race. How could I have ever had a close relationship with Elder Qianjizi? It's just that a few years ago, I helped a fellow Taoist from the Wan Gu Clan, and this fellow Taoist happened to have some special connection with Elder Qianjizi."

Lin Mo's eyes flickered and he answered in a calm tone.

"So that's how it is. But this is enough. The Wan Gu clan has a high status among the thirteen clans of Tianyun, and Elder Qianjizi is an important figure in the Wan Gu clan. His promise is enough to ensure that Fellow Daoist Lin will be safe in Yuncheng." Old Monster Xu said with a smile.

Lin Mo just smiled faintly and did not respond.

He knew very well that it was no coincidence that this person came to him, and the following topic was the key point.

Sure enough, Xu Laoguai's smile quickly disappeared, his face suddenly became extremely serious, and he bowed and said carefully:

"In fact, I came here today because I have something to ask of you, Brother Lin. If I have offended you in any way, please forgive me."

When Lin Mo heard these words, he couldn't help but get nervous, but he still kept a calm smile and replied:
"Brother Xu, why are you so polite? We practitioners always believe in being straightforward. Since Brother Xu has any doubts, why not tell me frankly? I, Lin, will definitely know everything."

"Since Fellow Daoist Lin said so, I won't beat around the bush." ​​Old Monster Xu finally smiled and bowed once again.

After a moment's hesitation, he continued solemnly:
"A few days ago, a breathtaking celestial phenomenon occurred on my mountain, which instantly triggered another earth-shaking earthquake of an even greater scale. Is this incident related to Fellow Daoist Lin?"

When Old Monster Xu asked, there was a sharp light flashing in his eyes, and his eyes were always fixed on Lin Mo's face.

After hearing this, Lin Mo was shocked, but his face remained calm, and he even asked with a smile:
"How did you conclude, Fellow Daoist Xu, that the celestial phenomena on that day were related to me?"

"The reason is simple. The fluctuations in the heaven and earth's vitality caused by this celestial phenomenon were extremely violent, but I was still able to guess some of the details. There was also a coincidence. At that time, I was troubled by some trivial matters, so I walked out of the yard for a walk. At that time, I saw with my own eyes a beam of dazzling golden light rising into the sky from where the Taoist friend's residence was."

Old Monster Xu stated without reservation.

When Lin Mo heard these words, his brows unconsciously frowned slightly, but in a flash, he smiled faintly and replied:

"Since Brother Xu Dao has seen through everything, there is no need for me to hide this matter. The celestial phenomenon that day was indeed caused by my unintentional behavior. In fact, I have to thank Brother Xu Dao for collecting and organizing the fragmented and scattered heaven and earth energy. If not for this, with my own cultivation, I am afraid it would take a lot of effort to resolve the impact of this celestial phenomenon."
