The road is vague

Chapter 437 Heavenly Talisman
Next, a grand Nascent Soul Ceremony was held on Qingming Mountain.

In the main hall, Sect Leader Danqing Zhenren officially announced the birth of the sect's fourth Nascent Soul cultivator, and the disciples of Lingmu Sect spread the news far and wide.

As is customary, the seven sects of the East sent their most accomplished disciples to offer their congratulations.

"Xuan Yuan Zuo Lan, a true disciple of the Chewu Sect, presents one Haoyue warship and one squad of weapon-wielding puppet warriors!"

The familiar name made Li Mo glance at the disciple of Chewu Sect.

This was a handsome disciple with an extraordinary air about him. He was standing among the many disciples who had come to offer their congratulations to Li Mo.

Li Mo's thoughts were briefly confused, and he couldn't help but think of the scene when the two of them made love in the Gobi Desert. For a moment, he was slightly dazed.

The Danqing Master, who was standing to the side, noticed something and couldn't help but chuckle and offer an explanation.

"Among the four kingdoms in the Gobi Desert, Chewu Kingdom's choice can be described as wise. As the first country to openly announce its surrender, the Holy King has already decreed that the other three kingdoms will be incorporated into Chewu Kingdom in the future as a reward."

Li Mo nodded without saying anything more.

Next came the congratulatory gifts from the Golden Core cultivators and the congratulatory messages from the Foundation Establishment disciples.

"May the Supreme Ancestor of Chaos Thunder possess boundless magical power, unparalleled in the world!"

"May the Supreme Ancestor of Chaos Thunder possess unparalleled divine skills and have his fame spread far and wide!"

"Congratulations to the Supreme Ancestor, Lord of Chaos Thunder..."

At this time.

A hearty laugh echoed from the horizon.

"I heard that another fellow Daoist has been promoted on Qingming Mountain. I happened to be passing by and decided to come and take a look. I never expected that the Black Dog Monster, who caused such a sensation in Yuancheng more than ten years ago, was only at the Golden Core stage back then. It's unbelievable! I admire him!"

On one side, there was a raging wind; on the other, scorching flames.

An old man with a red beard rode the raging Bull Demon King to this place. After looking at Li Mo, he burst into hearty laughter and exclaimed in amazement.

Some disciples who came to offer their congratulations without knowing the reason were taken aback upon hearing this.

"Black Dog Monster?"

"What! This Chaos Thunder Lord is actually the Black Dog Monster?"

"This, how is this possible..."

The reason why the incident more than ten years ago caused such a sensation in the Great Qian Kingdom was not just because the Stone Demon Master was so powerful, but because the Qian Yuan Saint Lord reappeared and took action after many years.

This undoubtedly gave the cultivators of the Qian Kingdom, who were exhausted both physically and mentally from years of war, a much-needed boost.

Thanks to the prestige of the Holy Lord Qian Yuan, the Black Dog Old Monster, who performed remarkably well in this battle, also became the subject of much discussion among the lower-ranking disciples.

Looking at the man's appearance, Li Mo vaguely recalled the information that Master Danqing had provided.

"So you are Fellow Daoist Liehuo from the Wind and Fire Sect. It's an honor to meet you!"

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Black Dog, to be honest, I have come here to express my gratitude in person. Ten years ago, Yang Gang, a true disciple of our sect, was deeply indebted to you. I happened to be passing through your sect this time and happened to be there for your grand ceremony, so I will present this as a congratulatory gift."

Say it.

The Fiery Taoist threw out a jade box.

After Li Mo opened the jade box, he found a Wind and Fire Pearl inside. Its power was not much different from the Thunder Pearl that Li Mo had refined before. It could release the power equivalent to a Nascent Soul cultivator's attack and could be used as a life-saving item for low-level disciples.

"So it's the famous Wind and Thunder Pearl of the Wind and Fire Sect! Thank you for your gift, fellow Daoist!"

"Hahaha, Fellow Daoist Black Dog, until we meet again."

The Fiery Taoist took his leave.

He repeatedly mentioned the name of the Black Dog Old Monster, but made no mention of the Chaos Thunder Lord's title, which left Li Mo speechless.

It seems.

Firstly, the Black Dog Old Monster was renowned throughout the Great Qian Kingdom. Secondly, the other party probably felt that with Li Mo's current strength, he was simply unable to suppress the Daoist title of the Chaos Thunder Lord, and thus felt somewhat comical and uncomfortable calling him that.

After the ceremony, Li Mo presented the Wind and Fire Pearl to Jiang Feiyan.

Logically speaking, bestowing this precious pearl upon the eldest disciple, Niu Wan, would undoubtedly be the best choice. However, he only possesses the cultivation of the mid-Foundation Establishment stage. Although he can activate the pearl, given its power comparable to a Nascent Soul cultivator's attack, it would likely result in him injuring the enemy a thousand while suffering eight hundred casualties himself, ultimately leading to mutual destruction.

The high-level talisman crafted by Qian Jing was more suitable to protect him.

With Jiang Feiyan's Golden Core stage cultivation, she would undoubtedly be able to better unleash the power of this pearl.

“Junior brother, this Beacon Fire Pearl is incredibly powerful. Why not keep it with you? It might turn the tide in a critical moment in the future.”

Upon hearing this, Li Mo shook his head and smiled.

"Now that I have officially advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, this item is just icing on the cake for me, but for Senior Sister, it may be able to turn the tide in a critical moment. Please accept it."

"Hehe, then I won't stand on ceremony, senior sister!"

Jiang Feiyan and Li Mo had a close relationship, so after a slight refusal, she smiled and accepted the gift.

gradually.

As winter deepened, the turmoil on Qingming Mountain gradually subsided.

this day.

Li Mo and Qian Jing flew together towards the north of Muzhou. They arrived at a vast, snow-covered, and deserted land where the biting wind howled through the wind gaps before they finally landed on the white snow.

Qian Jing looked expectant and said impatiently, "Junior brother, take it out quickly."

Upon hearing this, Li Mo took out an inconspicuous piece of amber, inside which was sealed an ancient mosquito. Li Mo used his spiritual light to lift it into the air.

"Tsk tsk!"

The Mysterious Talisman Master Qian Jing and Li Mo sat facing each other in the snow. After observing carefully for a long time with their True Spirit Eyes activated, they couldn't help but exclaim in amazement once again.

This Junior Brother Li was indeed incredibly fortunate, managing to obtain a few drops of the ancient auspicious Bai Ze demon blood in such a way. Even now, with his True Spirit Eye observing carefully, it would take him a long time to confirm it. Luck is truly a difficult thing to explain. However, fortunately, he possesses his current cultivation level and is himself also incredibly fortunate.

"It's a pity that there's only a little bit of Bai Ze blood left. It's really too much of a stretch to refine a secret talisman."

At this point, a smug smile appeared on his face.

"Luckily, I still have some Frost Frost Goat essence blood here. Legend has it that this goat is a descendant of the great demon Bai Ze. This will be enough to refine the secret talisman, hehe."

"Oh? Hahaha, that's wonderful!"

The sound of their continuous laughter echoed across the snowy plains.

A month has passed in the blink of an eye.

That day, the originally biting cold wind suddenly stopped, and the temperature rose at a speed that was almost visible to the naked eye. It was as if something had forcibly drawn away the order of frost and cold air from the entire ice field, breaking the original ecological order here.

Endless frost and cold air were converging on the talisman in front of Li Mo.

This talisman, which was only the size of a palm, seemed like a bottomless pit, constantly absorbing the frost order from all directions. This made Li Mo and Qian Jing, who had refined this secret talisman, stare at each other with a mixture of excitement and nervousness.

"Senior Brother Qian, it's all thanks to your caution. If this talisman had been refined on Qingming Mountain, the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Li Mo looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance, which were gradually melting, and said.

Qian Jing shook his head and sighed.

"These are all lessons learned. Thirty years ago, I tried to refine a secret talisman on Qingming Mountain, which ultimately led to a major mistake, causing a serious depletion of the metal essence on Qingming Mountain. Alas."

At this point, he looked thoughtful again.

"Sometimes I can't help but wonder, from another perspective, are we, like those evil spirits, brewing disaster in this world by crafting these magical treasures, talismans, supernatural powers, and secret techniques?"

half a month later.

A tiny secret talisman managed to devour the frost order on this vast ice plain for half a month.

After storing a massive amount of Frost Order, this talisman became translucent and could float in the air even without the support of spiritual power.

After the talisman absorbed enough frost and cold air, the land, which had been warm and blooming with spring, returned to the harsh winter within just half an hour.

"Such a small talisman can contain such a terrifying order."

Li Mo was secretly shocked by this talisman; it could truly be called a talisman that reached the heavens.

Qian Jing looked at the flowers that had just bloomed, which were now frozen by the extreme cold, and the vast land was once again covered by heavy snow, falling into desolation. He couldn't help but sigh.

"Alas, the Mountain and Sea Realm in this Dharma-ending Age is indeed no longer suitable for refining Heavenly Secret Talismans. We talisman cultivators have reached the end here."

After returning to his sect.

Li Mo glanced at the completed protective robe, pondered for a long time, then suddenly sneered and put it away again.

According to the latest news from the Roads Authority.

The teleportation array that leads directly to the wasteland of Qingqiu Mountain, Yanyang Valley, and Yanyang City has been completed!

"Hmph, I wonder if you can resist the temptation of a critically wounded enemy?"

After muttering to himself, Li Mo summoned the Bright Moon Flying Ship and headed straight for the Lingzhao Mountain Tomb in the Valley of Evil Wolves.

With his current Nascent Soul stage divine sense, compared to when he was in the Foundation Establishment stage, it can be said that earth-shattering changes have taken place.

We can now thoroughly explore the situation within that secret realm.

The Haoyue spaceship was thirty zhang long and was a gift from Chewumen during the Nascent Soul Ceremony. Li Mo was very satisfied with it.

Compared to the Jade Flying Chariot, the comfort of the Bright Moon Flying Ship is naturally incomparable. Li Mo stood on the sixth floor of the pavilion and casually produced a sound transmission talisman.

"I need to go out again, for a month or two or three months at the shortest. During this time, you must not slack off."

The transmission talisman flashed by in an instant.

The Haoyue spaceship cast a huge shadow over Qingming Mountain, and the lower-level disciples on the ground looked up with envy.

Two months later.

The Haoyue spaceship returned to Qingming Mountain.

Li Mo held a golden book in his hand, revealing a strange excitement.

This was actually the original seal script developed by ancient cultivators after the ancient golden swan script became ineffective, during a period of confusion and uncertainty.

"The ancient Lingzhao Mountain has actually been relocated to a human-dominated world called Qingtian, preparing to return in ten thousand years to rewrite the history of the Mountain and Sea Realm. It will refine itself into a Flowing Light Reversal Sword, using a supreme treasure of heavenly might to rewrite the order of heaven and earth. Currently, only a little over half of the world has passed. Holding the Lingzhao Sword sheath, one can sneak across from the secret realm with the cultivation of a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator..."

Lingzhao Mountain had clearly foreseen the plight of cultivators in the Dharma-ending Age.

However, for Li Mo at present, the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm is still too far away.

"It's time to head to Yan Yang Valley and confront Tou Qi."

Thinking of this, Li Mo sneered.

If that old assassin were to show himself, that would be the best outcome. Even if he had to use that hard-won Heavenly Talisman, he would still need to eliminate the threat once and for all.

After so many years of cultivation, "Dark Thunder Heavenly Book" has completely met Li Mo's expectations.

He wasn't in a hurry if the other party didn't take the bait.

He could have first established the direction of the Road Guidance Bureau's reforms and set up a branch in the wasteland.

Time is on his side.

He could simultaneously comprehend the Three Elements Chaos Thunder and attempt to utilize the broken branch of the Jianmu tree to combine the skills of a puppet master and a formation master, refining his own matrix puppet life. At the same time, he could use this golden book as a foundation to complete his understanding of the principles.

He only needs to take over the position of Master of Fate from Old Ghost Zhong in a natural way in the future, and then he can have a showdown with Old Killer.
