Mortals: The Daily Life of Hidden Moon Sect

Chapter 695

However, it must be pointed out that this kind of travel is an experience that the top beings of each race usually choose to take after reaching the pinnacle on the path of cultivation.

Only after going through countless thrilling adventures can people like them re-temper their inner state and even have the chance to obtain their own opportunity and fortune again.

Similarly, Lin Mo encountered many dangers on his journey back to the human world, and the amount he gained was also jaw-dropping.

Not to mention the large amount of precious materials he obtained from the depths of the wilderness along the way, as well as the alien settlements he encountered during his journey.

He has benefited greatly from stealing and learning many secret techniques and spells from these alien races that are completely different from human techniques.

In order to avoid attracting the attention of aliens, each of his actions was carried out only on the outskirts of the alien-inhabited areas, only involving smaller towns and avoiding places where top-level beings were stationed.

In this way, the risk is naturally minimized.

However, even so, not every time can go smoothly.

When he sneaked into a small town of an alien tribe called the "Ming" tribe, he unexpectedly met an alien who called himself "Lei Yunzi".

This person, who was only in the middle stage of the Void Refining Realm, recognized his alien identity at a glance.

As a result, a fierce battle immediately broke out between the two sides.

As a result, Lin Mo, who wanted to silence him, was surprised to find that he could not defeat such a seemingly insignificant middle-stage Void Refinement Being.

This alien named "Lei Yunzi" is actually the legendary "Body of Five Thunders". He is born with the ability to control five completely different kinds of thunder and lightning powers. Coupled with the skills he practices, he has acquired a great thunder and lightning power that had been lost in ancient times.

He was able to switch between the physical body and lightning at will. Although he could not maintain it for long due to his limitations in cultivation, it was enough to leave Lin Mo helpless and at a loss.

What is even more amazing is that Lei Yunzi is also an outstanding master of formations. He combined his own thunder magic power to create a unique lightning formation.

This magic array can transform the lightning in the body into various magic arrays at any time to trap the enemy or for attack and defense, which is truly amazing.

However, despite Lin Mo's many magical powers, Lei Yunzi was absolutely unable to gain the slightest advantage. After more than a month of fierce fighting, the two of them unexpectedly established a kind of friendship.

Lin Mo was very curious about the other party's lightning array that used the power of lightning, while Lei Yunzi was extremely interested in Lin Mo's evil-repelling divine thunder and the lightning pattern refining technique he learned from the Heavenly Thunder Wood.

After consultation, the two decided to find a suitable place to settle down and exchange their cultivation experiences with each other.

In the end, Lin Mo not only mastered several extremely practical lightning array techniques, but Lei Yunzi also absorbed some of the power of the evil-repelling divine thunder from him and learned the art of thunder patterns.

Both of them were quite satisfied with the result and left.

However, is this lightning array extremely difficult to practice, or is Lei Yunzi deliberately concealing some key factors? In the subsequent practice process, Lin Mo was never able to truly master it, and there were repeated minor flaws in the process of performing it, which made him feel troubled.

As he delved deeper into the array, Lin Mo gradually became certain that the problem lay with the latter.

This made him feel deeply dissatisfied with Lei Yunzi.

Even though he also used some tricks in the Thunder Pattern Technique, the other party's success rate in condensing the Thunder Bead was only about one tenth.

In this way, Lin Mo can only rely on his own wisdom and outstanding attainments in formations to do his best to repair and correct those lightning formations bit by bit during this long journey.

The lightning teleportation array that had suddenly appeared just now was the lightning magic array that he paid the most attention to and valued.

This array can use the power of thunder and lightning to construct a short-distance teleportation array, which has the ability to instantly move the subject within a thousand miles.

If Lei Yunzi uses this magic array, the destination he teleports to can be almost accurately within a hundred feet, and the entire teleportation process can be completed in just a few breaths.

However, since Lin Mo did not have a good grasp of several crucial aspects of the spell, even though he tried his best to revise and improve it.

It can only realize random teleportation operations within a certain range, and the entire process from casting the spell to completing the teleportation takes more than ten times as long as Lei Yunzi.

The transmission process just now was undoubtedly another attempt by Lin Mo to improve on this basis. However, the result was not as expected.

This made him feel a deep resentment towards Lei Yunzi, so much so that he couldn't help but curse at him in anger.

At this moment, he had traveled through mountains and rivers from the other end of Fengyuan Continent and returned here after going through hardships. It had actually taken him nearly a hundred years.

Therefore, when he caught a glimpse of the Confucian scholars and others, he couldn't help but feel immense joy in his heart.

Although he roughly understood that he should have approached the human territory with the help of some rather rough maps of the continent, he was unable to make an accurate estimate after all.

In addition, these people of the same tribe were the first time he had met them in many years. After confirming that he was indeed not far from Tianyuan City, his excitement was naturally beyond words.

Wandering around for a long time and living with alien races and animals day and night made Lin Mo naturally develop a strong sense of homesickness.

More importantly, he was always concerned about Nangong Wan's ascension. He wondered whether his beloved wife had successfully ascended to the spirit world and arrived at Tianyuan City.

Lin Mo's thoughts were complicated and up and down like the tide, but his face remained calm. He waved his hand gently and released a flying car that flashed green light.

This flying car is about 20 to 30 feet long, with countless mysterious runes engraved on its surface. In the front, there are two giant wolf-like puppet beasts with wings on their backs floating in the air.

"From your appearance, you all seem to be seriously injured. Since you cannot continue the long journey, please rest and recover in the flying car. Just guide me on the way forward."

Lin Mo instructed in a calm tone.

"Thank you for your care and concern, senior!"

"Junior respectfully obeys your orders!"

The four scholars thanked him repeatedly with gratitude. Although Lin Mo did not admit that he was a cultivator in the Fusion Stage, they knew that he was definitely not an ordinary Void Refining Stage, otherwise how could he easily defeat the Stone Yuan Turtle of the same level.

Naturally, they dared not disobey any orders.

What's more, they are all seriously injured now, so such an arrangement is something they have been longing for.

The originally difficult and dangerous journey home was now safe with this extremely powerful person in front of them. So, the four of them flashed and turned into light and flew into the flying car. Lin Mo raised his right hand, and two green spells shot out like sharp arrows, instantly sinking into the bodies of the two green puppet beasts.

The puppet beast, which originally looked like a dead thing, let out a low roar, and suddenly came back to life. It spread its wings and rushed forward.

The runes on the surface of the cyan flying car rolled endlessly, and then a layer of cyan light curtain emerged, covering everyone. Then the light flashed, and it turned into a ball of cyan light and rushed towards the sky. "Where are you from? How long have you been since Tianyuan City?" Lin Mo sat cross-legged in the middle of the flying car and asked everyone.

"Reporting to the respected senior, the four of us all come from a sect located in Xuanwu Realm. Only half a year has passed since we left Tianyuan City!"

The well-mannered scholar was obviously the leader among the four, and he responded to Lin Mo in the most respectful manner.

"Only half a year! According to this statement, I believe you all have a considerable understanding and grasp of Tianyuan City's recent situation."

Lin Mo raised his eyebrows slightly and asked with interest.

"Although the four of us have spent a long time in Tianyuan City and do know something about the various events that have occurred in the city, you should understand that due to our relatively low ranks, we are unable to fully understand many deep-seated secrets or complex situations."

The scholar seemed to have sensed Lin Mo's intention, so he was particularly cautious in his answer.

"Hahaha, you don't have to worry too much. I am also from Tianyuan City, but I left for many years due to coincidence. Now I just want to understand the current situation of my hometown and Tianyuan City."

"But since Tianyuan City is still safe and sound, it seems that the alien invasion that year was not successful."

Lin Mo chuckled softly.

"Foreign invasion? From what the senior said, they have been far away from Tianyuan City since that period! In the early years, our human race and the demon race joined hands to resist the joint attack of foreign countries, and both sides paid a huge price in casualties."

"It is said that even a powerful person at the fusion level died in the war. But when the war was at its most intense, the alien armies suddenly retreated without any warning, allowing Tianyuan City to escape disaster."

The scholar's expression changed slightly, and then he hurriedly and respectfully told the information he knew.

"retreat!"

Lin Mo stroked his beard gently and fell into deep thought.

"That's true. There are many different opinions about the specific cause of this incident. Some people think that our human race and the demon race sent elite forces to raid their homeland, forcing them to retreat."

"Some people also speculate that it is because of the newly appeared Xuantian treasure that caused all the alien races to rush to fight for this treasure."

The warrior in red armor took over the conversation and gave his own opinion.

"What legends are there about Xuantian's treasure?"

Lin Mo's heart tightened, but he remained calm on the surface.

"This incident spread all over the world at the time. Some people insisted that this was a mysterious treasure that suddenly appeared within the alien race."

"Some people also claim that this treasure was brought here by Saint-level experts from other continents and suddenly landed on our continent. There are even more bizarre rumors that a cultivator who ascended from the lower realm appeared among our tribes with this treasure."

The scholar explained with a wry smile.

“Haha, a cultivator who ascended from the lower realm!”

Hearing this, Lin Mo was not surprised, but couldn't help laughing.

"Senior, you also think this statement is too absurd. The Xuantian treasure is such a precious treasure that it is not something that an ordinary person in the lower world can possess. I really don't know where this rumor came from." Another female practitioner also interrupted with a smile.

"It's really unbelievable. Okay, then please tell me what shocking major events have occurred in the three realms and seven lands in the past one or two hundred years." Lin Mo nodded calmly and asked the question again.

"As you wish, even though there have been many far-reaching events in the three realms and seven lands in the past one or two hundred years, if we want to describe every event in detail, I'm afraid it won't be done overnight."

The scholar apologized politely.

"It's okay. This trip is still very long. I believe that you fellow Taoists can provide enough time to explain it to me in detail."

Lin Mo responded with a smile.

"Since Senior has given such instructions, the four of us will naturally do our best to introduce it to you in detail."

The scholar promised respectfully.

At this moment, he had swallowed some healing pills, and at the same time took out a crystal clear spirit stone, gradually restoring the spiritual energy in his body.

"If we talk about the things that happened in the past two hundred years, the most important one is that Tianmiao Spiritual Emperor in the Three Realms failed to overcome the great heavenly tribulation and unfortunately died several decades ago. The selection of a new Spiritual Emperor is about to begin among the human race. In addition, the young daughter of Nanli Jiao King, one of the Seven Demon Kings, mysteriously disappeared in her lair. In order to find this girl, Nanli Jiao King almost turned his territory upside down..."

The scholar looked serious and began to narrate the events in detail.

The big man in red armor and the other two female cultivators added details from time to time to ensure that the information was complete.

Lin Mo listened to their stories, his expression gradually changing from indifference at first to shock, but not long after, his face became uncertain and looked quite heavy.

It seems that during the time he was away, some shocking events did happen between the human and demon races.

After a full half day, Lin Mo finally finished listening to their story.

When their conversation came to an abrupt halt, he fell into deep thought.

The Confucian scholar and others wisely remained silent and waited patiently for Lin Mo's response.

"Excuse me, fellow Taoists, has there ever been a female cultivator from the lower realm named 'Nangong Wan' appearing in Tianyuan City in recent years?" Lin Mo suddenly asked this question after thinking for a moment.

"Nangong Wan? I have never heard of this name. Although we may not know much about the people guarding Tianyuan City, the number of monks ascending from the lower realm is extremely limited and cannot be ignored." After thinking carefully, the Confucian scholar answered affirmatively.

"So that's how it is. Maybe she has changed her name. Then how many female cultivators have ascended to Tianyuan City over the years?" Lin Mo's eyes flickered, as if he remembered something, and continued to ask.

"Compared to male cultivators, the number of female cultivators who ascend to Tianyuan City is indeed much smaller. However, there are still a few." The Confucian scholar gave an answer after hesitating for a moment.
