Mortals: The Daily Life of Hidden Moon Sect

Chapter 633

It was as if from the other side of the coast where the Sea-Suppressing Ape was, a purple-gold bird of prey suddenly spread its wings and flew into the sky, with a continuous stream of melodious and powerful cries coming out of its mouth.

Although the distance was too far and the vision was blurry, the raptor's figure was no less impressive than that of the huge sea ape.

What was even more shocking was that in the face of the sea ape's thunderous roars, its body did not waver at all, but it rushed forward resolutely.

"Oh no! This must be a ferocious bird that is as powerful as the sea ape. We must evacuate this place immediately, otherwise our situation will be dire."

When Liu Shuier saw this scene, her face suddenly changed, and then she made a gesture with her hands without hesitation, turning into a dazzling blue light that instantly broke through the air.

There was no need for the woman to remind them, as Lin Mo and Shi Kun knew that once these two ancient ferocious beasts engaged in a fierce battle, both the powerful energy they released and the range they might affect would far exceed the previous sonic attacks.

Therefore, the two of them almost followed the footsteps of the cloaked woman and also turned into two dazzling streaks of light, flying rapidly towards the sky.

Three streams of light disappeared at the end of the sky in an instant.

Just as they left the original location, a deafening roar suddenly erupted from the distant seashore.

Immediately afterwards, thunder, strong winds, and earth-shaking roars intertwined together, actually drowning out the roars and screams of the Sea-Suppressing Ape and the unknown bird of prey.

Almost at the same time, a huge wave over a thousand feet high swept in from the sea, and in just a moment, the place where Lin Mo and others had just stood was completely submerged in the surging sea water.

However, at this moment, Lin Mo and the other two had successfully escaped hundreds of miles away, then changed direction, made a huge arc, and rushed towards the direction of the mainland again.

"This Guanghan Realm is indeed as the legend says, hiding many ancient beasts that have long been extinct in our spiritual world. If we encounter the same thing all the way, then the task of finding the ruins and the forbidden area will probably be difficult to complete, and we may even die here halfway."

After the three of them finally landed safely on land, Shi Kun breathed a sigh of relief, but muttered something in a low voice while escaping.

Although his voice was not loud, Lin Mo and Liu Shuier could hear it clearly thanks to their cultivation.

"Although there are indeed some ancient beasts in this world, they are not everywhere. Perhaps we are just unlucky and accidentally broke into the fight between two beasts."

Liu Shuier shook her head and explained calmly.

"Bad luck? But it's certainly been a challenging start."

Shi Kun shrugged his shoulders, looking nonchalant.

"For those who practice cultivation, this is going against the will of heaven. Although we cannot completely trust the omens of good and bad luck, we cannot take it lightly either."

Liu Shuier smiled slightly and responded calmly.

"Haha! I hope so." Shi Kun grinned.

Seeing that the big man still maintained an indifferent attitude, Liu Shuier said no more, but turned to look at Lin Mo and said softly:
"Brother Lin, we are in urgent need of determining our geographical location in the spirit world. I beg you to cast a spell to protect us for the time being."

After experiencing the thrilling and dangerous situation just now, Liu Shuier obviously showed respect for Lin Mo, and her tone softened.

“This is not too much to ask.”

Lin Mo was also full of curiosity and nodded without hesitation.

Afterwards, he turned into a green light and shot up into the sky, rising to a height of over a hundred feet in an instant. After staying in the air for a short while, the light gradually converged and his body outline appeared again.

As his divine sense spread, he included almost all areas within dozens of miles around him in his perception range and conducted all-round surveillance.

"Fellow Daoist Shi, it's our turn next."

Liu Shuier nodded slightly in satisfaction, turned to face Shi Kun and continued.

"Haha, Shi has already made full preparations." Shi Kun answered without hesitation.

Then, Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun quickly separated and rushed to the two sides. After a few flashes, their escape light suddenly stopped dozens of feet away.

A huge triangle was formed between the two men and Lin Mo.

Unlike Lin Mo, the cloaked woman and Shi Kun each waved their sleeves and shook them lightly into the air.

In an instant, a white disc and a yellow scroll flew out from their hands at the same time.

Liu Shuier and Shi Kun made hand gestures with one hand and muttered something.

The disc shook slightly and suddenly expanded more than ten times, turning into a giant object like a bright moon.

The yellow scroll slowly unfolded, revealing the yellow haze inside. It seemed that there was some mysterious object hidden in the scroll.

Then, a yellow light flashed and the entire scroll disappeared without a trace.

A moment later, countless yellow lights appeared in the void over a hundred feet in radius, and then all the light spots burst out with strong light, and actually merged into a yellow light curtain that covered the sky and the sun.

Seeing this, Shi Kun let out a low cry and pointed at the bright moon in the sky.

The bright light of the moon began to flow, and after a "whoosh" sound, it merged into the yellow light curtain.

The volume of the spells chanted by Liu Shui'er and Shi Kun suddenly increased.

Something amazing happened.

A buzzing sound was heard in the yellow light curtain, and mountains, rivers and streams emerged as densely as stars. Although they looked only as big as beans, each peak was lifelike and their uniqueness could be seen at a glance.

All of these tiny landscapes have been transformed into square plates that are ten feet high. The mystery behind them is difficult to describe in words.

"What kind of magical spell is this?" Lin Mo stood on a high place and could clearly see the entire light curtain. He squinted his eyes and asked in confusion.

"This Guanghan Map was collected by my master and Senior Duan from the fragments of maps left by our ancestors who entered Guanghan Realm over the years. It was carefully sorted, memorized, and refined. Although it cannot be said that it covers all the regions of Guanghan Realm, it at least records seven or eight tenths of the places in it."

Liu Shuier explained in a pleasant voice. "However, whether we are actually in the location shown on the map still needs to be tested. If we are not in any of these locations, then we may face some difficulties."

Shi Kun added, then he stretched out his finger again and lightly tapped the light curtain in the air.

In an instant, the entire map emitted a dazzling light. However, in the yellow light, suddenly a white ball of light only the size of an egg slowly rose from a corner of the map.

Then it floated about ten feet above a square plate, motionless.

"Found it. It turns out that we are now on the edge of the Ten Thousand Birds Territory. It seems that the sea area we passed through before is actually the Nine Evil Sea."

Liu Shuier saw clearly the area illuminated by the white light ball, and her voice trembled a little.

"Ten Thousand Bird Territory, Eight Evil Seas! We have come to such a dangerous area."

Shi Kun's expression also became solemn.

Lin Mo was curiously observing the white ball of light below in the air. After hearing their words, he couldn't help but be shocked.

Located beside the towering peaks and ridges, there are two legendary areas hidden, namely the "Wanqin Ridge" and the "Eight Evil Seas".

It is named after its unique natural scenery and historical relics.

According to legend, eight ancient and mysterious ancient beasts live and breed in the Eight Evil Sea, which is the origin of the name.

In contrast, Wanqinling is a paradise with a large number of magical birds of various species, including three ferocious birds that enjoyed a high reputation in ancient times and had a status comparable to that of the Zhenhai Monkey.

However, these two areas are closely connected. For the alien races from the Thunder Continent who mistakenly enter them, if they are unlucky, the consequences will be disastrous.

Therefore, Lin Mo and Shi Kun couldn't help but frown, and Liu Shuier also fell silent.

"I really don't want to take the risk of entering Wanqin Ridge. Even if we successfully escape the danger of the Eight Evil Sea, there is no guarantee that we can be lucky enough to escape again in Wanqin Ridge."

Shi Kun said with a serious expression.

"Wanqin Ridge is indeed full of unknown risks. Although we managed to escape from the Eight Evil Sea, it does not mean that we can get what we want in Wanqin Ridge. We'd better choose to avoid this area."

After careful consideration, Lin Mo also expressed his opinion.

"It seems like this is the only way."

Liu Shui'er sighed helplessly, her eyes moving back and forth between Lin Mo and Shi Kun, and finally nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Liu Shui'er also agreed with Lin Mo's suggestion, Shi Kun's expression eased a little, but when he looked at the huge light curtain again, his frown did not relax immediately.

"The area near the left and right sides of the Ten Thousand Birds Ridge is the vast Blue Sun Desert on one side and the deep and terrifying Dark Beast Forest on the other. There is no need to mention the Blue Sun Desert. For those of us who have not yet reached the Saint Clan realm, the environment here is even worse than the Ten Thousand Birds Ridge. According to historical records, the strange sunlight there is so severe that we can only endure half a day of exposure at most, otherwise we will turn into dust and dissipate in it. As for the Dark Beast Forest, it is said that the Dark Beast Clan, which has long been extinct in the spirit world, lives there. At night, the strength of the Dark Beasts will increase significantly, and it is also full of dangers. However, apart from these two areas, we have no choice."

Liu Shuier pointed at the light curtain and explained in a calm tone.

"No! Although there are only a few records about the Dark Beast in history books, it can be seen from the text that this kind of beast is extremely difficult to deal with. Entering the Dark Beast Forest is undoubtedly seeking death. It is safer for us to avoid setting foot in this area as much as possible."

Shi Kun heard Liu Shuier's analysis, but firmly opposed it.

"It's unavoidable. The forbidden site is very far away from us. Even if we go all out and move forward at full speed without any obstacles, it will take at least three to four months. If we encounter any difficulties along the way, the time required will probably increase exponentially. And to escape the Ten Thousand Birds Ridge and the larger Dark Beast Forest, it may take an additional one or two months. In addition, we must reserve enough time to break through the bottleneck of our own cultivation. With this calculation, we simply cannot reach our destination on time and lift the ban."

Faced with Shi Kun's questioning, Liu Shuier did not compromise, but stated the facts coldly.

"Although the Dark Beast Forest is mysterious and full of dangers, it does not mean that no one has ever passed through it in the past. In any case, from the records in the sect files, we have learned some strategies to deal with the dark beasts, so for us, passing through this place is undoubtedly more confident than our predecessors. In addition, if Fellow Daoist Shi returns empty-handed as the result of this trial, don't you have any consideration for the possibility of being severely punished by Senior Duan?"

Liu Shui'er crossed her slender arms across her chest, her eyes sharp as a knife, glanced coldly at Shi Kun, and spoke slowly.

Shi Kun looked solemn and lost in thought, but soon after, he looked up at Lin Mo in the sky and asked carefully:

"Brother Lin, what do you think about this?"

"We have been invited by the two elders to help the two Taoist friends and have received a generous reward. As long as you all agree and have the same direction, and the destination is not a place where life and death must be fought, then no matter what you decide, I will accept it."

Lin Mo narrowed his eyes and answered calmly.

"Okay, since Brother Lin and Fairy Liu are both fearless, then I, Shi, am also willing to explore the legendary Dark Beast Forest. Why not?" After careful consideration, Shi Kun finally laughed out loud and readily agreed.

Hearing that Shi Kun's answer did not disappoint her, Liu Shui'er's eyes showed a soft light and her tone softened a little:

"Since Fellow Daoist Shi has made the decision, the three of us must work together to cross the Dark Beast Forest. I believe that with our strength, we will be able to complete the mission successfully."

"Haha, I hope so." Shi Kun responded with a low chuckle.

So the three of them discussed again and then rushed towards the coastline.

In a flash, the once bustling place became empty, and no one could be seen anymore.

However, not long after Lin Mo and others left, a flash of light appeared on the sea in the distance, followed by two colorful rays of light. In just a few breaths, they arrived at the shore.

The light faded, revealing two aliens with strange appearances.

The looks of these two men are extremely unique.

One of them was short and fat, but he was wearing a huge battle armor that was completely black and almost covered his entire head.

The other man was tall and skinny, like a dried corpse, but he was still wearing an unusually large robe, which made him look particularly strange.

These two people were among Tianyun and others who remained where they were after Lin Mo and others left.

When the two men appeared, they were covered in dust and had extremely painful expressions on their faces.

The short foreigner even reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead, still with lingering fear, and said:
