On the Sky City.
Ji Mo withdrew his gaze from the ground, feeling that the Sky City’s offensive power was still somewhat lacking. Dozens of lightning attacks had failed to kill that behemoth.
In the future, when he had money and materials, the first thing he would do was improve the offensive formations.
Well, the energy system also needed an upgrade.
He looked at the completely dimmed plaque, feeling immense heartache. He had barely played with it a few times, and the energy was already depleted.
The spirit stones for the flying boat had been squandered by himself. He wanted to find a corner to cry.
If he had brought these spirit stones back to the Xuan Ling Realm, they would probably be enough to exchange for several gold mountains.
“Oh well, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda.”
Ji Mo comforted himself, saying that he had successfully rescued a delicate fairy from danger, which was worth it.
Of course, the reason he made a move was that he couldn’t stand the ferocity of that evil beast, not because the fairy maiden was exceptionally beautiful.
With its energy depleted, the Sky City was like a supercar without fuel. Ji Mo could only helplessly choose to abandon it.
When he got rich in the future, he would come back for it.
Then he would see if he could move his own “humble dwelling” over. Living a leisurely life here then would surely be incredibly pleasant.
Suppressing his reluctance, Ji Mo led everyone back to the flying boat and said, “Let’s go, we’ll get our treasures.”
He remembered that his good brother Kong Xu had left him a divine beast, which was suppressed under the Gourd Brothers Mountain.
However, after such a long time, it had probably already died.
But the remains of the divine beast were definitely good treasures. Even a few scraps would be worth a lot of money. Of course, he had to get his hands on it.
“Ancestor, are you perhaps going to retrieve your Xuanyuan Sword? That’s great! I’ve always wanted to see it. I’ve never seen a divine artifact before.”
Sima Hongfeng’s eyes were glowing green, thinking that the so-called great treasure was the divine sword of the Great Immortal Kong Xu.
Xia Wan’er asked with a look of confusion, “Xuanyuan Sword? Wasn’t it stolen by those bad guys when the Great Immortal Kong Xu was killed?”
“If the Ancestor had carried the Xuanyuan Sword back then, even if he was no match, he could have escaped with the divine sword. So the Xuanyuan Sword should not have been with the Ancestor at that time. Perhaps it was hidden by the Ancestor in this secret realm.”
Sima Hongfeng revealed the secrets of that year, guessing that the Xuanyuan Sword had not fallen into the hands of outsiders.
Xuanyuan Sword!
This was the invincible divine weapon in Chinese legends. Could it be that it was not a fictional object, but that there really was such a divine sword, brought to this world by the Great Immortal Kong Xu?
If that were the case, wouldn’t it prove that some of China’s myths and legends were real?
“Indeed, the more one sees, the clearer one becomes about the truth of this world.”
Ji Mo was now even more certain that his transmigration was guided by some unknown puppet master.
He sighed lightly and made up his mind that he would find a way to uncover the truth of the matter.
“It’s not the Xuanyuan Sword, it’s a divine beast, dead or alive. Let’s go.”
Ji Mo collected himself, waved his hand, and had Sima Hongfeng pilot the flying boat towards Gourd Brothers Mountain.
…
In a secluded small grove, a man and a woman rushed into it.
“Junior Sister Biyao, you… why did you bring me here?”
The man’s breathing was a little rapid, and his speech was stammering.
He felt it was incredible. His aloof junior sister, who had always disdained his advances, had actually secretly brought him into a small grove.
With a man and a woman alone, it was hard for him not to overthink.
The man’s gaze furtively scanned the woman’s alluring cleavage and her slender waist and voluptuous hips. His evil desires burned fiercely, and he couldn’t help but swallow his saliva.
The woman, known as Junior Sister Biyao, was also staring intently at the man. She no longer concealed it, her pupils emitting a hungry and thirsty gaze. She smiled charmingly and said, sticking out her scarlet tongue, “You scoundrel, I can’t take it anymore. I really want to eat you up.”
Hearing this, the man’s blood boiled with lust. He laughed heartily, “Good junior sister, I’ve also been unable to endure it for a long time. I’ve always fantasized about pouncing on you and devouring you completely. Come on, let us battle for three thousand rounds.”
Saying that, he unbuckled his belt like a monkey and lunged towards the woman, biting towards her alluring lips.
However, the next second.
He let out a scream of terror and retreated repeatedly.
He saw that the beautiful Junior Sister Biyao’s cherry-like mouth suddenly split open into an exaggerated arc, revealing a mouth full of dense, sharp fangs, and a suffocating stench rushed towards him.
The man was scared to pee on the spot. His beautiful junior sister had turned into a slit-mouthed demon. Who could stand that?
“You are not my junior sister at all. What kind of monster are you…”
He uttered his last words, and then turned into a headless corpse, falling in a pool of blood.
The slit-mouthed woman chewed the man’s head with gusto, making a satisfying crunch. White brain matter and blood flowed down the corners of her mouth, a bloody and chilling sight.
“I’ve been inhabiting this woman’s body for days, and it almost suffocated me. As expected, human heads are more delicious.”
The slit-mouthed woman licked her fingers with lingering satisfaction and whispered, “Master has always suspected that the Great Immortal Kong Xu left behind some contingency, or that his divine consciousness remained in the world. He ordered me to infiltrate the Void Secret Realm to eliminate any traces. In my opinion, Master is overthinking it. The Great Immortal Kong Xu is just a grasshopper that can jump around a bit, not worth mentioning.”
After days of investigation, she found no trace of the Great Immortal Kong Xu being alive, believing her master was too cautious and overestimated the Great Immortal Kong Xu.
However, she dared not disobey her master’s orders. She opened her bloody mouth, and a three-foot-long dark red plant root emerged from her throat like a venomous snake.
“Netherworld Undying Vine, turn this place into hell. No matter what the Great Immortal Kong Xu left behind, it will all be devoured clean.”
The vine possessed extremely high intelligence and immediately pounced on the headless corpse on the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the corpse turned into white bones, its flesh completely devoured.
The Netherworld Undying Vine grew several times longer and sprouted dense roots, directly piercing into the soil.
Then.
The surrounding flowers and trees all turned yellow and slowly lost all their vitality.
Birds and beasts also could not escape this fate. Their flesh was devoured, leaving only skeletons.
This place became a dead land.
Amidst the slit-mouthed woman’s得意狂笑 (proud laughter).
The Netherworld Undying Vine madly devoured everything, grew wildly, and began to spread in all directions.
This was an immortal demonic creature, extremely evil, capable of devouring plants, animals, souls, and all living beings. In a short time, it could turn the entire Void Secret Realm into a purgatory.
Ji Mo and his group finally arrived at Gourd Brothers Mountain.
When he saw the large crack on the ground, he was not feeling well at all.
Before he could even have the flying boat land, he jumped down directly from high in the air. The terrifying impact force caused the ground to form a large pit.
Sima Hongfeng gasped, his face filled with shock, “Ancestor’s physical body is so strong!”
Because he sensed that Ji Mo had not used any immortal power, but had endured the recoil force solely with his physical strength, without even a flicker of his brow.
“With such a great body, it should be no problem to have seven gourd babies, right?”
Xia Wan’er, the little pervert, was probably thinking about something else again, her fair face flushed red like an apple.
Ji Mo quickly walked to the edge of the deep pit and looked closely. It was empty, not even a single hair was visible.
“That damned bastard, he actually stole my divine beast! If I catch him, I’ll break all three of his legs.”
Ji Mo stomped his feet in anger.
Suddenly.
His body staggered, feeling his ankle being entangled by something, and an incredibly powerful force dragged him into the pit.
