Chapter 208 The Effect of Tombstone Moss

"Master, there is no need to worry about your disciple."

Seeing the hesitation on Xuan Tianhen's face, Gu Mo naturally knew what he was worried about. Immediately, Gu Mo's aura from the Golden Core realm quickly dropped to the Foundation Establishment realm. At the same time, his aura and appearance also changed.

Xuan Tianhen looked at Gu Mo, whose cultivation, appearance and even aura had changed greatly, with surprise in his eyes. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought that the person standing in front of him was another person.

This means that Gu Mo's disguise is already enough to deceive a Nascent Soul Sword Lord. This is the power of the Breath-Concealing Technique at the perfect realm.

As for the change in appearance, it was just a small disguise. With Gu Mo's cultivation level at the Golden Core Realm, even if he didn't master the disguise, he could naturally control his body and change his appearance.

"In that case, then do as you wish." Knowing that Gu Mo had this hidden method that even he couldn't see through, Xuan Tianhen was naturally relieved. As for 100% safety, that didn't exist at all.

"Yes!"

After getting Xuan Tianhen's permission, Gu Mo couldn't help but smile. Next, he could finally go to the cave ruins and look for the cave core that he had been thinking about.

However, before setting off, Gu Mo still needs to make some preparations.

“Please give good reviews.”

Xiaohua's figure appeared, left a box, and disappeared in an instant.

Gu Mo's incarnation picked up the box left by Xiaohua. This was the preparation he wanted, the 4th-level tombstone moss and some solar essence. According to Qian Tao's information, there were many formations and restrictions in the cave ruins. If you want to explore smoothly, the means to crack the formation restrictions are absolutely necessary.

Therefore, Gu Mo himself could only suspend the upgrade of the sunflower and prepare some tombstone moss for the incarnation. In addition to the level 4 tombstone moss, Gu Mo also prepared a lot of level 3 ones for use in various situations.

Originally, Gu Mo planned to prepare a 4th-level Yaoyang Pill for his incarnation to prevent any ambushes from the Demon Sect's spies.

But as Gu Mo comprehended the Great Sun Sword Intent, he no longer needed the Yaoyang Pill. The Great Sun Sword Intent could directly dispel the evil spirit. This meant that Gu Mo would have a great advantage in his battles with the evil cultivators. Some of the evil cultivators' insidious tactics would hardly affect Gu Mo, who had comprehended the Great Sun Sword Intent.

Once the fact that Gu Mo has mastered the Great Sun Sword is revealed, it is estimated that the ranking of his incarnation will rise again.

"Then let's set off as soon as possible."

All the necessary preparations have been completed. Gu Mo no longer hesitated and went directly to the location of the cave ruins given by Qian Tao. He was also worried that if time was delayed too long, the ruins would be discovered by other people.

After a while, a foundation-building sword cultivator from the Dayan Sword Sect left the sect.

"Boss, a target appears!"

Gu Mo, who was disguised as an ordinary foundation-building disciple of Dayan Sword Sect, left the sect's sphere of influence. An inconspicuous stone shook a little, and then a message was sent out through a communication talisman.

"After waiting for so long, I finally have a goal."

In a cave, a middle-aged monk with an ordinary face glanced at the communication talisman in his hand and became excited.

During this period, the forces that the Demon Sect had planted in the righteous path suffered huge losses. A Nascent Soul Demon Lord died, a high-level member was captured, and all of their spies in the Dayan Sword Sect were destroyed.

Having lost their spies, the Demon Sect is no longer able to obtain timely information on the situation of the Dayan Sword Sect.

If it were any other time, the Demon Sect would not be in a hurry, but this time a top genius who had condensed the Immortal Golden Elixir appeared in the Dayan Sword Sect. If such a threat is not eliminated as soon as possible, the scene that happened a thousand years ago might happen again.

Thousands of years ago, the Demon Sect paid a huge price and added a little bit of luck to get rid of the genius from the Dayan Sword Sect who was trying to reach the Divine Transformation Realm. No one can guarantee that they will be successful next time.

To ensure that everything goes well, the best way is to prevent that genius from growing up, but to get rid of the genius of Dayan Sword Sect, it is necessary to obtain news about him first.

Therefore, the Demon Sect began to think of ways to place spies in the Dayan Sword Sect again. It was obviously unrealistic to send people to infiltrate directly, and sneaking in under the name of apprenticeship was no longer effective. The Dayan Sword Sect was able to eliminate the original spies, which meant that the Dayan Sword Sect had the ability to discover the methods of the demons.

This ability is also the information that the Demon Sect wanted to explore. Since infiltrating and planting people didn't work, the Demon Sect's spies thought of directly attacking the Dayan Sword Sect disciples who were out.

As long as they controlled those disciples of Dayan Sword Sect who were out, they could quickly arrange their spies. Even if the usage period of these spies was the second time that Dayan Sword Sect used its ability to discover the magic methods, it would be enough.

At most, we can control more of the Dayan Sword Sect disciples who go out. If a sect wants to operate normally, it is impossible to stay indoors all the time. Especially for sword practitioners who need to be honed in battle, they need to go out and fight all the time.

So, just wait quietly, there will always be a goal.

"Lead the people into the formation."

The middle-aged cultivator quickly issued an order. He was not in a hurry to deal with a Foundation Establishment disciple. He asked his men to capture the man first, and then he went over to use control measures.

"The Demon Sect's spy really hasn't given up yet."

Gu Mo looked at the light curtains of the formations rising around him and thought to himself, As the acting leader of the Dayan Sword Sect, he was naturally very clear about the news happening in the sect.

Some time ago, Gu Mo received information that a spy from the Demon Sect had appeared nearby, and Gu Mo sent an elder to lead a team to investigate. However, the Demon Sect's spies were very good at hiding, and the elders sent by the sect did not gain anything at all.

After that, the Demon Sect's spies completely disappeared, which made many elders and disciples think that the Demon Sect had given up. However, Gu Mo knew that the Demon Sect would not give up. With his immortal golden elixir, the people of the Demon Sect would probably be dying of anxiety, so how could they be willing to give up.

Now it seems that just as Gu Mo expected, the Demon Sect has indeed not given up on infiltrating the Dayan Sword Sect, but has changed from taking the initiative before to waiting and waiting now.

And Gu Mo has now become the caught rabbit, well, probably a ferocious beast in rabbit skin.

Gu Mo knocked on the light curtain of the formation. This was a top-grade tier 3 trap. With Gu Mo's current combat power, he could break it by force, but there was no need.

Because Gu Mo has a better idea, "It's a good idea to try the effect of tombstone moss before exploring the cave ruins." After Gu Mo got the tombstone moss, he had not used it in actual combat. Now is a good time to try it and see if there are any defects, so that he won't be in a hurry in the cave ruins.

As he spoke, Gu Mo took out a ball of black moss and placed it on the light curtain of the formation.

As soon as the tombstone moss came into contact with the formation light curtain, it quickly took root and spread, and then began to devour the formation light curtain. The continuously spreading black moss was like a huge black mouth, chewing a big hole in the formation light curtain bite by bite.

During this period, the formation had no sense at all. This silent and invisible method of breaking the formation was many times more powerful than those formation-breaking talismans.

Especially some formation restrictions, once triggered, will trigger a chain reaction. Even if it is broken by a powerful formation-breaking talisman, it will cause more trouble later because of triggering the formation restrictions.

But this tombstone moss will not do that. At this moment, the Demon Sect spies outside have no idea that the formation they set up has been broken.

"Not bad!"

Gu Mo walked out of the formation light curtain through the hole eaten by the tombstone moss, and then collected the moss on it. The tombstone moss is not a disposable plant and can be recycled after use. However, after recycling, it needs to be reactivated with solar essence before it can be used again.

As the moss on the tombstone was recovered, the gap in the light curtain of the formation slowly recovered. If you didn't look carefully, it would be difficult to find that the formation had been broken by someone.

"Oh, a big fish has come!" As soon as Gu Mo left the formation light curtain, he felt the breath of a late Jindan stage cultivator. A Demon Sect spy in the late Jindan stage was definitely a big fish.

As for those at the Demon Lord level, the Demon Sect sent two of them last time in order to completely eliminate the hidden danger of the Dayan Sword Sect. Unfortunately, in the end, one of the two Nascent Soul Demon Lords died and the other was injured.

It is estimated that for a long time to come, the Demon Sect will not send forces at the level of the Demon Lord. After all, the righteous side is not a pushover either. The Demon Sect's sudden attack before gave them an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Now is the eve of the great war between good and evil. The alert levels of both sides have been raised to the maximum. Once a demon lord of the evil path appears in the righteous territory, the righteous side will never let him leave alive.

"Boss!"

Several spies from the Demon Sect who were guarding outside the formation saw the middle-aged monk appear and hurriedly saluted. Of course, the appearance of this middle-aged monk was 100% fake, and the spies from the Demon Sect were not bold enough to walk around with their real appearance.

"Has he been caught?"

The middle-aged monk asked.

"Don't worry, boss. It's just a small foundation. We just make a little move and the opponent has fallen into the trap. At this moment, the kid should be crying in the formation." A spy from the Demon Sect pointed at the formation not far away.

In order to avoid the formation being discovered, it was placed in a crack. The formation could not be seen from the outside. Only by entering the crack could one see the formation.

This is also the reason why the Demon Sect spies guarding outside have not discovered any abnormalities in the formation so far.

"Very good, this time..."

Hearing this, the middle-aged cultivator nodded. As long as they got started, they could use this target to lure out the disciples of Dayan Sword Sect, and thus control more targets.

However, the middle-aged cultivator stopped talking halfway because there was no one in the formation at the moment.

"What about people?"

The middle-aged monk turned around and looked at his men. At this moment, his eyes were full of anger of being deceived. You know, every time he showed up, he took the risk of being discovered.

"Boss, the person was still here just now."

"We saw with our own eyes that he was trapped by the formation."

……

Looking at the empty formation, the Demon Sect spies broke out in sweat and hurriedly explained.

"So, where are the people?"

The middle-aged monk's eyes were grim. At this moment, he was somewhat suspicious whether there was a traitor among his men, who was deliberately trying to lure him out, and then...

As soon as the middle-aged monk had this thought, he felt a palpitation in his heart, and without hesitation, he quickly dodged.

Afterwards, a bright sword light flashed across, but the middle-aged cultivator dodged it due to his advanced cultivation. However, his subordinates were not so lucky and were all killed by the bright sword.

"who is it!"

The middle-aged monk had no feelings at all about the death of his subordinate. At this moment, his eyes were fixed on the front.

"What a keen sense."

Gu Mo couldn't help but sigh that his sword was actually dodged. However, think about it, the first requirement for a spy from the Demon Sect to be sent to infiltrate the righteous territory is to stay vigilant at all times. Those who were careless would probably have become corpses.

Unable to succeed with one sword, Gu Mo could only kill him by force. Anyway, Gu Mo would not let this spy from the Demon Sect leave.

"No matter who you are, you will die this time!"

As Gu Mo appeared, the middle-aged cultivator quickly recalled the information in his mind, but none of it matched. He knew that the concealment skills of the "Foundation Building" cultivator in front of him were very strong.

So, after making those harsh remarks, the middle-aged monk chose to run away without hesitation.

As he is in the late Jindan stage, as long as the opponent is not a Yuanying Zhenjun, he is not afraid even if he is in the great perfection of Jindan. After all, what he is best at is saving his life, and he was sent here because his superiors took a fancy to his ability to save lives.

Only by staying alive can you continuously transmit information back. Having strong combat power is useless. Can you really take on the entire righteous sect alone?

Now that his whereabouts have been exposed, what he should do is not to kill this guy who is hiding his skills, but to retreat. If it is too late and the strong men of the righteous path arrive, he will not be able to escape.

"Really decisive."

Gu Mo also admired this man very much. When he found that the situation was not right, he chose to retreat without hesitation and without any delay. If it were someone else, he would probably succeed.

Unfortunately, he was facing Gu Mo.

At the moment when the middle-aged monk was about to run away, 12 of the 9 sword pills in Gu Mo's body moved quickly and formed a Nine Palace Sword Formation.

The moment the sword formation was formed, Gu Mo also slashed out with a sword, and this sword contained a powerful sealing force. This is the effect of the Nine Palace Sword Formation.

It is also the effect of the sword pill formation. There is no need to use additional flying swords to set up the formation. Just use the sword pill to form the formation directly. Then, the power of the sword formation can be directly released by Gu Mo swinging the sword.

"what!"

The middle-aged monk who was about to run away felt a powerful restraining force coming and his face changed suddenly. Knowing that he could not run away, the middle-aged monk chose to fight back without hesitation.

When the two sides fought, the middle-aged cultivator immediately discovered Gu Mo's true cultivation level. Even if he had cultivated the Breath-Concealing Technique to perfection, as long as Gu Mo made a move, his true cultivation level could not be hidden. However, the change in his breath was still effective.

"You are that Lin Wu!"

After discovering Gu Mo's true cultivation level, the middle-aged cultivator's eyes flashed with brilliance. Although the aura was a little bit wrong, there was only one person in the early Jindan stage in the Dayan Sword Sect with such powerful combat capability.

That is Lin Wu, who ranks tenth on the list of righteous geniuses and has condensed the immortal golden elixir.

At the same time, this is also the ultimate goal of his mission. As long as he can kill this goal, then...

Thinking of the huge reward for killing Gu Mo, the middle-aged cultivator could no longer maintain his cautious attitude. At this moment, his heart was filled with madness. As long as he could kill the person in front of him, the reward he would get would allow him to successfully enter the Golden Core Great Perfection, and even have enough energy to impact the Nascent Soul Realm.
