The road is vague

Chapter 420 Five Elements Ring

As the strange laughter of the Beast Master and the Beast Tamer continued, the flight speed of the limp and powerless Thousand-Faced King and Princess Dai noticeably decreased.

With a sudden clap of thunder, Li Mo appeared beside the two and used his lightning escape technique to carry them away at high speed.

"So fast!"

The Beast Tamer was taken aback and immediately summoned his natal magic weapon.

The purple bell was lifelike, like a mischievous elf, exuding a deep and imposing aura. With a gentle tap from the Beast Tamer, spiritual energy from all directions rapidly converged, and the bell grew larger and larger, expanding to more than ten feet before emitting a clear, ringing sound.

Although the main target of the Soul-Suppressing Bell was not the ground, it still caused thousands of people in the nearby neighborhoods to faint and fall asleep, and some even fell directly into the river.

Li Mo, who was fleeing at full speed, paused slightly. Then, a flash of blood-red light appeared on his body, revealing strange multicolored ink. The faces of various characters flashed by, and he continued to flee.

Upon seeing this, the Beast Tamer's eyes widened in astonishment.

"impossible!"

Even a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator wouldn't be able to get rid of his natal magic weapon so easily; they would at least have to use protective divine powers or rely on their powerful cultivation to withstand it.

Does this person possess some kind of secret treasure to protect the soul?

"Humph!"

Seeing that his junior brother's Soul-Suppressing Bell had been easily broken by this person, the Beast Taming Sect Leader, Master Beast Joy, snorted coldly.

The old woman extended her five withered fingers on her right hand, and five rings of different colors flashed slightly before disappearing.

next moment.

A ring was found encased in each of Li Mo's limbs and around his neck, constantly drawing spiritual energy from all directions to compress Li Mo's protective aura, attempting to imprison him in the air.

"The Five Elements Ring!?"

Li Mo recognized this authentic magic weapon at a glance; its power was truly not to be underestimated.

Seeing that the protective aura was being rapidly breached by the Five Elements Ring, he immediately let out a low shout and used the Demon Shadow Mask to shoot out a bolt of evil grass and yin lightning.

The eerie oil-painted lightning flashed and disappeared in an instant, quickly contaminating the Five Elements Ring.

Immediately, the ceramic mask on Li Mo's face seemed to come alive, transforming into the face of a true demon clone that bore a seven-tenths resemblance to Li Mo. It swallowed the Five Elements Ring in one gulp, sealing this Returning to Truth magic treasure.

However, as a result, the Shadow Mask has temporarily lost its effectiveness.

Without the protective outer shell of the Shadow Mask, Li Mo's late-stage Golden Core realm was completely exposed.

When Master Shouxi and Master Shouxun sensed Li Mo's cultivation aura, their faces immediately showed disbelief and incredulity.

"A late-stage Golden Core cultivator?"

"What kind of secret treasure is that mask? How can it possess such bizarre power, capable of elevating a late-stage Golden Core cultivator to the Nascent Soul stage out of thin air!"

During the chase, Li Mo finally managed to escape Bianjing City before the city's protective formation was sealed off.

Having experienced being trapped like a turtle in a jar in Xinian City of the Lost Continent, Li Mo had no desire to go through that again. Now that he had escaped the city's protective formation, he could try to maneuver a bit more.

"Fellow Daoist Li, thank you very much."

"Who exactly are these two people? My husband and I only heard their laughter and felt weak and powerless. Half of our cultivation was suddenly reduced out of thin air!"

The Thousand-Faced King and Princess Dai, who were rescued by Li Mo, looked quite unwell.

Li Mo glanced sideways at the old woman and old man who were still relentlessly pursuing him.

"The Beast Taming Sect's techniques are somewhat unique, extremely effective against the two of you, and possess extraordinary ability to detect and sense the remnants of ancient great demons. However, the strength of these two is only average. This can't go on like this. It would be better if I could hold them off for now, and you two could leave this place as soon as possible and then reunite!"

"it is good!"

The Thousand-Faced King dared not underestimate the two behind him any longer, and immediately flew away with Princess Dai into the distance.

Li Mo stopped, gently drew his sword from its sheath, and with a loud dragon's roar, a blazing light appeared, like a small sun blooming. The Golden Fiery Sword, constantly nourished by the Spirit Illumination Sheath, became increasingly powerful.

Master Shouxi stopped in his tracks, staring intently at the supreme yang sword, his expression slightly grave.

"Junior brother, I'll hold him off. You go and continue chasing those two demons."

"it is good!"

The Beast Tamer Master let out a low shout and was about to bypass Li Mo to chase after the Thousand-Faced King and Princess Dai. Upon seeing this, Li Mo gently made a hand seal with his right hand, and a lightning crystal silently appeared at the tip of his slender right index finger, which he gently touched towards the old man.

A violent burst of thunderous spiritual pressure erupted. Based on consuming a thunder crystal to simulate the power of heaven and earth and with the essence of cultivating both body and mind, Li Mo summoned a thunder giant that was already infinitely close to the Nascent Soul level, and it pounced towards the Beast Taming True Person.

The Beast Tamer realized the terrifying power of this Five Elements Summoned Creature and immediately stopped in his tracks.

He dared not be careless, and summoned a ball of purple spiritual fire, which transformed into a golden eagle, and began to fight it.

"This is the True Yin Beast Flame?"

Li Mo could vaguely sense the Yin attribute aura within it, which was similar to the "Dark Thunder Heavenly Book". It seemed that using it as a reference to further cultivate the "Dark Thunder Heavenly Book" was indeed feasible.

"Bah!"

Upon seeing this, the Beast Joyful Immortal actually summoned a pair of double dragon scissors.

After the scissors were summoned, they began to devour spiritual energy from all directions, growing larger and larger, and faintly revealing the souls of two giant pythons.

This was clearly a spiritual magic weapon, possessing the power to self-destruct. Li Mo had previously self-destructed the Sky-Seizing Wings to escape, and had also been injured by the self-destruction of a spiritual magic weapon. He immediately dared not be careless and summoned the Flowing Gold Fire Sword to shoot at it.

The two magical artifacts collided in mid-air, unleashing an astonishing spiritual pressure.

The flowers, trees, mountains, and land on the ground were first silently cut by countless sharp rays, as if they were split in two by countless scissors, and then baked by the scorching heat. The power of the spiritual light burst forth and quickly turned them into ashes.

The two sides reached a stalemate, and the surrounding spiritual energy became increasingly chaotic.

Beast Joy True Person's eyelids twitched violently. You must know that she was at the peak of the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm, while the other party was only at the late stage of the Golden Core realm. Her magic power was almost several times that of the other party, yet they were on equal footing. Doesn't that mean that the power of the other party's flying sword was more than twice that of her Twin Dragon Scissors?

To be precise, these twin dragon scissors are not her magic weapon, but rather a treasure passed down through generations of the Beast Taming Sect!

The spiritual treasure was hard to come by. This treasure was the last resort used by the Beast Taming Sect's leader to self-destruct and deter others during critical moments, thus preserving his life.

Seeing that he couldn't defeat Li Mo in the short term, and that his junior brother, Beast Tamer, was also being held back by the opponent, Beast Joyful Master gritted his teeth and decided to back down.

"Your Excellency has truly mastered the art of manipulation. Fine, since those two great demon descendants have already escaped, as long as you return my Five Elements Ring, I will pretend this matter never happened, how about that?"

Upon hearing this, Li Mo chuckled softly.

He certainly wouldn't return the treasure he had acquired.

Seeing the shadowy figures in the distance, it seemed that a large number of Beast Taming Sect disciples were on their way. He immediately decided not to linger and released two lightning crystals from his body in one breath.

An extremely violent and intense spiritual pressure of thunder suddenly erupted!

Within a space of about ten feet around Li Mo, a high-density thunderstorm instantly formed. Then, in the state of the Composite Thunder Transformation Technique, he used lightning to escape at a speed that left the two Nascent Soul cultivators of the Beast Taming Sect speechless. He disappeared in a few flashes.

After a while.

The Thunder Giant was finally overwhelmed and defeated by Master Beast Joy and several disciples of the Beast Taming Sect who arrived at the scene.

"Senior sister, that person is clearly only at the late Golden Core stage, yet he possesses such supernatural abilities. Just who is he? Are we really going to let him go like this?"

"Hmph, what else can they do?"

The old woman said irritably.

"If you hadn't been so impatient, letting them escape like this before even awakening the sacred beast?"

Seeing his junior brother sigh and blame himself, Master Shouxi couldn't help but shake his head and offer a word of comfort.

"However, we've actually turned misfortune into blessing. If we had kept them here and waited for them to reveal who was behind them, it would have been difficult for us. Given the supernatural abilities they displayed, they're most likely descendants of those Nascent Soul cultivators. Let's just pretend we don't know anything... As for the Five Elements Rings we lost, let's just forget about them."

Upon hearing this, the Beast Tamer Master's eyelids twitched violently when he heard the name of the Nascent Soul Old Monster.

Others may not know, but they do have some understanding of Nascent Soul cultivators. These secretive fellows, although they cannot be exposed to the sun and moon for long periods of time for certain reasons, can easily kill a Nascent Soul cultivator if they are truly angered.

That's why.

Only those Nascent Soul cultivators who can survive against Nascent Soul cultivators are revered as the pinnacle of the Mountain and Sea Realm.

More than ten days later.

Li Mo arrived at the border between the Song and Lu states. After searching extensively, he finally found the Thousand-Faced King and Princess Dai.

"Fellow Daoist Li, are you alright?"

"fine!"

Li Mo smiled and sat down by the campfire the two had built, took a grilled fish, and savored it with relish.

"Not only am I unharmed, but I've actually turned misfortune into blessing this time. I witnessed the True Yin Beast Flame and obtained a remarkable treasure. Why don't you two rest here for a while, and I'll take out this treasure and retrieve it."

"This is...good."

Although the Thousand-Faced King didn't understand why, he still agreed.

Next three days.

Li Mo first took the Five Elements Rings out of the mask space, thus restoring the power of the Demon Shadow Mask and putting on the outer shell of his Nascent Soul stage cultivation.

He then spent considerable effort erasing the mark on the invisible ring.

Then, following the example of the True Man of Beast Joy, he treated them as five rings and slipped them onto the five fingers of his right hand, where they shone brightly.

This treasure can strike first and, when combined with lethal magic weapons, create an opportunity for a fatal blow.

Thus, Li Mo, wearing the Shadow Mask, holding the "Dark Thunder Heavenly Book" in his left hand, wearing the Five Elements Ring on his right hand, and carrying the Spirit Illumination Sword Sheath and the Flowing Gold Fire Sword on his back, stood on the mountaintop gazing at the land of Lu.

There is a special sensing array on the border of Lu State that can detect those who are moving too fast. Therefore, according to Li Mo's idea, the best thing to do next is to imitate a low-level cultivator, walk into Lu State, accept the inspection at the checkpoints and fortresses, and walk all the way to Qian State.

As for which direction to return to the Great Qian Kingdom, that is also a question.

Moreover, once he arrived here, he had to be careful of the Seventh Day Memorial Organization, so he immediately changed his appearance and became a proper man. His body also became plump, revealing a large belly.

After a slight smile, Li Mo finally looked south.

"Let's return to the battlefield in the southern barbarian lands!"

Say it.

Li Mo, accompanied by the Thousand-Faced King and Princess Dai, slowly walked south.
