Mortal: I can unlock the card pool by becoming an apprentice to him.

"call."

Lin Mo exhaled a breath of stale air and stopped practicing his internal energy.

This is his eighth major cycle of circulation today.

As the spiritual energy in his meridians slowly returned to his dantian, Lin Mo's brows furrowed involuntarily.

Although he could cultivate the "Fire-Attracting Technique," in the end, this method was nothing more than a rudimentary fire-attribute basic technique, which was incompatible with his own dark spiritual root.

Even though one can absorb and refine spiritual energy and bring it into one's own body, there is an indescribable feeling of stagnation in the meridians every time one circulates it.

He shook his head, banishing all distracting thoughts. Then, with a thought, he summoned the book.

Looking at the two card pools in front of him, Lin Mo chose Han Li without hesitation.

In any case, we must extract the Heavenly Bottle as soon as possible.

"Ten consecutive pulls!"

【Hatsuzo (white)】

[Seven Mysteries Sect Identity Waist Token (White)]

【White Food Bag】

【Peace Charm (White)】

[Clothes in white]

Hair-binding cloth (white)

Insect-repellent sachet (white)

White hemp rope

【White Earthenware Kettle】

Coarse salt (white)

No? That's all?

Nine hundred taels of silver were thrown down without even a splash.

Lin Mo refused to believe it and did another ten consecutive draws.

Unfortunately, the result was the same as before; all they got were some ordinary items that were of little value.

He took a deep breath, forcibly shifting his gaze from Han Li's portrait to Jin Guang Shangren.

You only have one chance to prove yourself.

Lin Mo muttered a threat in his mind, and then continued with ten consecutive draws.

【Treasure "Changyuan Sword" (Purple)】

【Golden Aquarius (White)】

[Gold Wine Glass (White)]

[Gold Disc (White)]

[Ascension Order (Blue)]

【Diamond Talisman (Blue)】

[Qin Family Genealogy (White)]

【Diamond Talisman (Blue)】

【Gold-threaded Taoist Robe (White)】

[Gold Toothpick (White)]

"They've shipped it out like that?"

Lin Mo's expression froze, completely unexpected that he had just casually pulled out the three most valuable items from Jin Guang Shangren's body.

If I had known this pool was so clean and the drop rate so high, I shouldn't have hesitated and should have drawn a few more times.

Looking at the card that was shining with a mesmerizing purple light, Lin Mo immediately chose to materialize it. The next second, a peculiar talisman with a small gray sword drawn on it appeared in his hand.

The small sword on the talisman was so lifelike, it looked just like the real thing.

As soon as he thought of it, the talisman began to tremble slightly as if it had come to life.

Upon seeing this, Lin Mo immediately cut off the injection of spiritual energy.

He is currently only a minor cultivator at the first level of Qi Refining, far from being able to freely control talismanic treasures.

Just as he was about to examine the object closely, a commotion suddenly broke out outside.

"Master, Young Master Liu has arrived!"

The young Taoist's voice was somewhat hurried.

Faintly, Lin Mo could also hear footsteps and laughter.

He had been a disciple of the Golden Light Temple for ten days. He knew that the young master Liu mentioned by the other party was the son of the county magistrate of the nearby county. This man had loved swords since childhood. After learning of the existence of the Golden Light Master, he would visit him every few days to learn about and observe the flying sword technique.

Master Jin Guang was happy to befriend him and often summoned talismans for him to admire.

"Come, come, Brother Zhang, Brother Wang, you've come from afar, today we'll definitely broaden your horizons!"

Outside the courtyard, Young Master Liu's voice was spirited and smug, with a hint of deliberate arrogance.

"Master Jin Guang possesses a real flying sword; for ordinary people, even catching a glimpse of it is as difficult as ascending to heaven!"

The Jin Guang Temple is not large, and with so many people pouring in, the originally quiet courtyard suddenly became crowded and noisy.

Lin Mo frowned, put away the talisman, and prepared to go outside the temple to find some peace and quiet.

But before he could even step out of the house, he bumped right into a group of well-dressed noblemen.

The other person's gaze lingered on Lin Mo for a moment before quickly looking away, probably just mistaking him for an unfamiliar young Taoist priest.

Unexpectedly, the next second, an old servant in the crowd surrounding Young Master Liu suddenly raised his head and said incredulously, "Lin Mo? You... how come you're here?"

The old servant was dressed in a gray cloth servant's uniform, his hair was tied up haphazardly, and because he deliberately hunched over, he was inconspicuous among the group of attendants.

As soon as he spoke, Young Master Liu subconsciously glanced back, then exclaimed in surprise, "Eh? Aren't you Old Yang? Who are you? Why are you mixed in with my entourage?"

The old servant had a sallow complexion and a head of white hair; he was none other than Doctor Mo.

However, Doctor Mo ignored Young Master Liu's questioning and instead fixed his sinister eyes on Lin Mo, as if he had a lot to say.

"Didn't I send you to Lanzhou to deliver a message? Why are you here?"

That day, after witnessing the flying sword skills of Master Jin Guang, Doctor Mo secretly placed all his hopes on Jin Guang Temple.

In his view, although Yu Zitong was a cultivator, he did not have any extraordinary abilities, which meant that his cultivation level was far inferior to that of his opponent.

If Venerable Jin Guang were willing to intervene, the blood curse crisis that was troubling him would surely be resolved.

Therefore, he risked everything and sent Lin Mo a thousand miles to deliver a message and retrieve the gold.

But who would have thought that there would be no news of this kid for so long? Based on his past experience in the martial arts world, Doctor Mo concluded that Lin Mo must have encountered some accident on the road and died outside.

Doctor Mo naturally felt no regret or reluctance towards this disciple who was originally intended to be turned into a puppet.

He was secretly annoyed that without gold, he wouldn't even have the chance to step into the Golden Light Temple.

Left with no other choice, he could only wait outside the temple, hoping to find a suitable opportunity to see the Venerable Jin Guang in person.

It just so happened that Young Master Liu entered the temple with a group of entourage today. Taking advantage of the fact that the other party had a large number of people, Doctor Mo secretly mingled among them and successfully avoided the two greedy and wicked children.

Unexpectedly, before the master even showed his face, he spotted someone who should never have been there.

"Looks like we'll have to come clean today."

Lin Mo has now stepped one foot into the world of cultivation and has drawn the Ascension Token, a key item.

With the talisman in his possession, Doctor Mo was just an ordinary person to him, and not worth being too wary of.

"Throw this guy out! How dare he impersonate my man! He has some nerve!"

Before Lin Mo could speak, Young Master Liu, his eyes wide with anger, shouted sharply.

Several strong men who were protecting him immediately stepped forward and surrounded Doctor Mo.

These men were all skilled in martial arts and usually acted arrogantly and domineeringly under Young Master Liu's guidance. They were always swift and decisive in their attacks.

Upon seeing this, Doctor Mo's expression changed drastically. Although he was not afraid of these people, he was worried that he would need Jin Guang Shangren's help in the future. If he left a bad impression on Jin Guang Shangren, it would be troublesome.

Doctor Mo hurriedly said, "It's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. I only wish to use your esteemed presence to see the Master; I have no other intentions whatsoever."

Having said that, he shouted loudly inside, "My lord, I have something important to discuss! If you can lift the blood curse on me, I, Mo, am willing to offer five thousand taels of gold, no, ten thousand taels! I only beg your help!"

"Ten thousand taels? Is that true? If you dare to deceive me, you'll regret it!"

"Has the Venerable One arrived?"

Doctor Mo was overjoyed, secretly marveling that he was truly a person favored by heaven.

He didn't care about gold or silver. As long as the blood curse could be lifted, what did a little gold matter?

If he could be led onto the path of cultivation, he would not hesitate to give up the entire Jingjiao Society to him!

But why can we only hear their voices and not see them?

Could it be that the Venerable One is going to test me further?

Just as he was feeling uneasy, a dwarf wearing a bright red Taoist robe with gold embroidery pushed through the crowd and stepped out.
