Mortals: The Daily Life of Hidden Moon Sect

Chapter 732

With their current level of cultivation, they are obviously unable to touch upon those things that even high-level cultivators find difficult to understand.

"As for Qi Lingzi's 'inherited artifact', it's actually very easy to understand."

"It should be a magic weapon that cleverly hides the secret techniques of Wuhai Temple. It is sealed in your body. When your cultivation reaches a certain level, the seal will automatically unlock a part of it, allowing you to obtain the appropriate cultivation techniques."

"Of course, this inherited artifact itself is also a priceless rare treasure. If it is used in conjunction with the corresponding skills, its power cannot be underestimated."

Speaking of this, Lin Mo paused for a moment.

"I often feel a little strange in my body, and sometimes I have some strange nightmares. It turns out that it's all caused by this thing!"

Qi Lingzi was dumbfounded and subconsciously muttered to himself.

Lin Mo smiled slightly, and then continued:

"In fact, you have quite a lot of luck. Although the reputation of Wuhai Temple is not prominent, according to my observation, the magical skills of this faction are extraordinary and very suitable for you to practice."

"Therefore, in terms of the main cultivation method, there is no need to teach you anything else. It is enough to teach you some magical secret techniques after you have truly achieved some success in your cultivation."

"So, this lineage of Wuhai Temple still urgently needs you to inherit it, after you cultivate to the Mahayana stage."

"You can also become the head of Wuhai Temple again and carry forward this lineage. I will never interfere in this matter in any form."

"The reason why I chose to accept you as my disciple is because I can see that you already have the inheritance. You only need a little guidance and nourishment to practice on your own."

"Otherwise, no matter how excellent your qualifications are, I will not easily cause trouble. Of course, if you join me, I promise that I will never be stingy with you in obtaining various resources."

"If you feel unbalanced or resentful about this, then I can pretend that the apprenticeship just now never happened."

Lin Mo looked serious, staring at the little Taoist priest intently, and spoke calmly.

"I dare not. It is my great blessing to be able to become a registered disciple under you. As for which technique to practice, I will naturally follow your arrangement and will not have any complaints."

When Qi Lingzi heard Lin Mo say this, his face suddenly became very nervous. He knelt on the ground again and answered respectfully.

"Well, since you think you can accept it, then there is no problem. As for Master Hai..."

Lin Mo nodded with satisfaction and turned his gaze to the handsome young man.

"Master, please just call me Hai Yuetian. The name Hai Da Shao is just a nickname given by my friends. I really don't dare to use it in front of you."

Young Master Hai seemed to have noticed Lin Mo's intention and immediately responded wittily.

"So Haiyuetian is your real name. Okay, from now on, you will be called Yuetian."

Lin Mo said softly with a smile on his face.

"Yes, Master!" Young Master Hai naturally responded respectfully.

"There is indeed a big difference between your situation and Qi Lingzi's situation."

"In the past few days, I have conducted a comprehensive examination of your body and consulted some fellow Taoists of the same level on some confusing issues."

"Now I can confirm that you not only possess a rare molten gold body, but also that the strange thunder spirit root in your body should be the legendary hidden spirit root."

"No, perhaps it would be more accurate to call it the Hidden Thunder Spiritual Root."

"Hidden Thunder Spirit Root!" Young Master Hai muttered silently twice, but his face was still full of doubts.

"Although the Molten Gold Body is rare, considering the large number of humans, there is always a certain chance of it appearing. It is for this reason that you have made such rapid progress in the Body Refining Technique."

"As for hidden spiritual roots, that is hard to predict!"

"Since ancient times, rumors about hidden spiritual roots have been rare, and almost all of them have been lost in various myths and legends."

“So I didn’t think of this at first, but after repeated consideration and research, I finally confirmed it without a doubt.”

"Hidden spiritual roots are extremely difficult to detect, but the probability of such spiritual roots being born will never exceed those with special physiques or true spiritual bloodline inheritors."

Lin Mo explained patiently.

"Why is this happening?" Qi Lingzi was fascinated by what he heard and couldn't help but ask.

"Since this type of spiritual root is originally only available to people with special physiques and special bloodlines."

"Only for this kind of people, their spiritual roots have a certain probability of being obscured or even weakened by their special physique or bloodline power, thus causing them to develop hidden spiritual roots."

"However, it should be noted that even if the existence of hidden spiritual roots is detected, some individuals do not see any results."

"Ordinary immortal cultivation sects rarely accept such people."

"Unless his special physique or bloodline is a heaven-defying choice, or the spiritual roots he possesses are extremely rare types such as thunder spiritual roots and dark spiritual roots."

"Even if these conditions are met, we still need to evaluate whether it is really worth investing in cultivation based on the length of time it takes for the hidden spiritual roots to disappear and appear."

"After all, if the hidden spiritual roots disappear for too long, the difficulty of cultivating them will increase exponentially. Only when the spiritual roots appear can those with hidden spiritual roots practice magic power."

Lin Mo explained in detail to the two registered disciples.

Young Master Hai was so excited that he suddenly realized the true secret of his spiritual root and couldn't help asking:
"Master, I have roughly understood what you said about the origin of hidden spiritual roots and the difficulties in cultivation. However, why are only a few types of spiritual roots such as hidden thunder spiritual roots attracting the attention of the world?"

“Is there any other deeper reason behind this?”

"You are indeed very smart. You grasped the crux of the problem in an instant."

"Compared to the Hidden Dark Spiritual Root, this kind of spiritual root is even rarer than your Hidden Thunder Spiritual Root. It has been passed down for generations and only one person has been found to possess it."

"As for your Hidden Lightning Spiritual Root, even though the process of cultivating your magical power is several times more difficult than that of ordinary cultivators."

"But after these spiritual root holders practice the Way of Thunder, they become people with rare abilities, that is, they can help others resist the heavenly calamity."

Lin Mo told the story slowly.

"It actually has such miraculous effects? Young Master Hai has not yet had a deep understanding of it, but the son of the spirit of the weapon was dumbfounded when he heard about it.

As a cultivator, he naturally understood the importance of Lin Mo's words more clearly than Master Hai, who was a body cultivator. "That's right! Therefore, even if the cultivation of hidden thunder spirit roots becomes quite difficult due to the difficulty of continuing, as long as there is any possibility of cultivating to a high level, most immortal cultivation sects will still devote all their efforts to cultivation."

“However, if one loses the possibility of cultivating to a higher level, no one would be willing to do such a thing, no matter how precious the hidden spiritual root is.”

"And I chose you as my apprentice because of your physique and spiritual roots, which just happen to fit my method of dual cultivation of Dharma and body."

"Even when your spiritual roots disappear temporarily, you can still practice some body-refining techniques to avoid wasting time on cultivation."

"Secondly, I also know a little bit about the way of thunder, and I can teach it to you at the same time. If one day you can really cultivate to perfection, you can lend a hand when I am overcoming the tribulation."

"Even if I can only lighten the burden a little bit, it may determine whether I can successfully overcome the tribulation!"

Lin Mo made no secret of some of his original intentions in accepting a disciple and revealed them candidly.

"As long as it is predicted, when the moment comes when Yue reaches a very high level of cultivation, I will do my best to assist Master in fighting against the thunder tribulation."

Young Master Hai bowed respectfully to Lin Mo without hesitation and promised in a serious manner.

"Haha, you don't need to worry too much about this."

"I made this arrangement only to prepare for that one in ten thousand chance. If the day comes when you can help me through the calamity, it will probably be several years later."

"This kind of unpredictable thing cannot be forcibly changed by human power."

"I chose to accept you as my apprentices mainly because I think your qualities are very compatible with mine. It is destined that we will have this master-apprentice relationship."

"But on the way to the auction, you two kept calling me 'Brother Lin', which really put me at a disadvantage."

Lin Mo first nodded with satisfaction, then said with a relaxed smile.

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Master Hai and Qi Lingzi couldn't help but giggle awkwardly.

"Well, now it's time to set off."

"I am full of curiosity about the fellow Taoists of the same level whom I have yet to meet. And according to rumors, there will be people of different races at this auction, which undoubtedly increases my desire to go and find out."

"I want to see which alien race would come all the way here."

Lin Mo's face was solemn and he said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Master!" Young Master Hai and Qi Lingzi responded in unison.

So, Lin Mo nodded in approval and led them out of the solemn hall.

As soon as you step out of the teleportation array and enter the Yingxian Palace, you can see the flickering light in the distant sky, teams of soldiers patrolling at low altitude, and in the distance you can see a group of flickering figures.

However, once they entered within ten miles of Yingxian Palace, the nearby guards would immediately stop them from advancing.

The obvious fact is that Jiuxian Mountain, which was once strictly prohibited for outsiders to enter and exit, is now fully open to the outside world.

At this time, Lin Mo just remained silent. He stretched out his hand and waved it. Green light sparkled from his wide sleeves, instantly wrapping up Young Master Hai and his accompanying guards, and they stepped into the void together.

Although Jiuxian Mountain has a strict no-fly zone order, it is undoubtedly just a formality for Lin Mo, a powerful practitioner in the fusion stage.

Although there were patrolling armored soldiers in the air nearby, once they recognized Lin Mo as a cultivator from the front of Yingxian Palace, they tacitly ignored him, as if they had never noticed them.

The team led by Lin Mo turned into a green rainbow and galloped at an astonishing speed, heading directly for Feixian Peak deep in Jiuxian Mountain.

While flying at high speed, they could clearly see that the originally peaceful and tranquil mountains were now completely covered by people of both the human and demon races.

Although it is not crowded yet, as far as the eye can see, the mountains are filled with bustling figures.

Especially the various buildings specially prepared for this grand event were crowded with people from both ethnic groups.

In areas closer to the nine main peaks, the crowds reach their peak.

Young Master Hai and his escort were watching with great interest in the light of escape, but Lin Mo, as a veteran who had participated in such events many times, had long lost the excitement he had when he first attended.

After just a quick observation of the scene below, Lin Mo did not stay for too long, but chose to descend directly from the sky and disappeared from everyone's sight.

Just half an hour later, a majestic mountain tens of thousands of feet high suddenly came into view - it was Feixian Peak, the highest peak in Jiuxian Mountain.

Not only were the number of soldiers patrolling here significantly greater than in other areas, but there were also some Thunder Guards riding blue flying wolves that began to appear in the sky one after another.

Just when Lin Mo's escape light had just passed the limit of the mountain and was only seven or eight miles away from the summit.

Suddenly, several Thunder Guards drove their mounts towards them and stopped them on the spot.

"I am your respected senior. Following orders from my superiors, I beg to review the invitation letter in your hand."

The leader was a burly elderly man. Although he did not get off the Flying Wolf, he still maintained a respectful attitude and clasped his hands together to show Lin Mo his purpose.

Lin Mo glanced at the strangers in front of him, then waved his hand lightly, and a bright golden light shot towards them. It was the golden invitation letter that symbolized Lin Mo's noble status.

Although this old man was only a physical practitioner, he was able to accurately discern the information hidden in the golden invitation.

With just a light touch, the old man immediately knew the contents:
"So it's the famous Senior Lin who's here. Please forgive me for being rude just now. As far as I know, the purpose of your visit should be to participate in this auction."

"Then please allow me to lead you to the Hall of Ten Thousand Treasures!"

After getting Lin Mo's tacit consent, the old man hurriedly agreed, signaled to his companions beside him to continue their patrol mission, and then personally drove the giant wolf to lead Lin Mo to the top of the mountain.

The reason why Feixian Peak got this name is that the entire mountain is extremely steep and tall, and it is almost impossible to find any path from the bottom to the top, which is extremely dangerous.

For ordinary people or ordinary practitioners, it is extremely difficult to climb to the top of the mountain and assassinate someone silently.

If we want to build buildings on this basis, it would undoubtedly be wishful thinking.

However, for practitioners who have mastered extraordinary magical powers and have extraordinary strength, all this seems easy.

According to historical records, this mountain was created by a legendary master using magical techniques.

He skillfully condensed a vast ocean of white clouds on the mountainside and the peak, and connected the two through several colorful bridges over a hundred feet long and steep cliffs, making the mountain seem to be integrated with the sky.

The magnificent building standing on the top of the mountain in the sea of ​​white clouds - the Wanbao Hall - is the most eye-catching and representative building in Jiuxian Mountain.
