A scout spoke in a hoarse voice, his tone filled with undisguised fear.
"Yes, let's go!"
"Split up! Make sure you bring this news back with you."
These spies dared not look at the carnage any longer, and used their lightness skills to the fullest to flee for their lives in different directions.
Back to Chen Mo.
He stood amidst mountains of corpses and seas of blood, his monk's robes still pristine and spotless.
Those who ambushed and killed him were all ruthless and vicious.
If it weren't for my own strength, I probably would have been killed by these people long ago.
Therefore, he naturally wanted to eliminate them completely, leaving no one alive.
What goes around comes around.
Wanwan put away the Heavenly Demon Twin Slashes and looked at Chen Mo's back with a complicated expression.
This young master was even more ruthless and decisive than she had imagined, truly deserving of the title 'demon' bestowed upon him by outsiders.
She's becoming more and more interested in Chen Mo...
"Amitabha."
Chen Mo softly chanted a Buddhist prayer, then left the place with Mu Wanqing and Wanwan.
...............
On the way, Mu Wanqing looked at her fair hands and recalled the feeling of her rapidly increasing power. In the end, she couldn't resist.
"My husband, those people from before... why didn't you let me..."
She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear.
Chen Mo turned his head to look at her and smiled gently, "Qing'er, it is indeed easy to plunder other people's power."
Wanwan, who had been casually following along, immediately perked up her ears when she heard the phrase "plundering others' power".
She pretended to admire the scenery around her, but in reality, she was intently eavesdropping.
Chen Mo continued, "It can indeed grant a person immense power in a short period of time."
"But it was ultimately obtained through plunder, not through one's own arduous cultivation."
"If one becomes obsessed with this path, it will only fuel one's inner greed."
"Over time, one's mind will deviate from the right path and eventually fall into the demonic path, from which it will be difficult to extricate oneself."
He paused, then continued, "Theoretically, the Northern Darkness Divine Art can indeed absorb the true energy of others without limit."
"But the amount of energy each person can hold is limited."
"If you force in too much true energy beyond its capacity, the result will be... bang!"
Chen Mo made a shattering gesture, "Dantian shattered, meridians destroyed."
"Qing'er, you must know that power must be matched with one's state of mind in order to be mastered."
After hearing this, Mu Wanqing recalled her momentary thought of absorbing the power of those hundreds of people, and felt a wave of fear wash over her.
"My lord, Qing'er understands."
Meanwhile, Wanwan's heart was already in turmoil!
She listened very carefully and realized that the so-called "Northern Darkness Divine Art" was actually a martial art that could steal the power of others!
Moreover, judging from Chen Mo's words, it seems that the Northern Darkness Divine Art... can be used by anyone who plunders its power?!
Isn't that cheating?!
The "Absorption Technique" of the Heavenly Demon Art mainly uses invisible power to steal the opponent's tangible essence.
Temporarily converting, deflecting, or circulating the enemy's incoming true energy is not truly assimilated into one's own cultivation.
More importantly, forcibly absorbing large amounts of energy can lead to a mixture and conflict of vital energy within the body.
In mild cases, it can cause internal energy disorder; in severe cases, it can lead to ruptured meridians and demonic possession.
"Such amazing martial arts exist in the world..."
Wanwan's beautiful eyes sparkled with wonder; the secrets hidden within this little master were simply bottomless!
She now wished she could rush forward, grab Chen Mo by the collar, and make him teach her the "Northern Darkness Divine Art".
This technique is practically tailor-made for them, the members of the Demonic Sect!
If I can learn it myself, why should I be afraid that I cannot reach the highest level of the Heavenly Demon Art?
Chapter 95 The Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals
More than a month later.
It was already night when Chen Mo and his group arrived at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains.
The majestic outline of the Tianshan Mountains loomed in the night, like a lurking ancient beast.
There is no moon tonight, the starlight is dim, and the howls of hungry wolves occasionally echo through the mountains and forests.
However, this environment was no different from a leisurely stroll for Chen Mo and his companions.
As they were walking, faint flickering firelight could be seen in the distant valley ahead.
The faint sounds of noisy people could be heard, sounding particularly jarring in this quiet, desolate mountain wilderness.
Wanwan lightly touched the ground with her bare feet, a playful smile appearing on her charming face. "So many people gathered in this godforsaken place so late at night?"
"Those who are still howling and wailing here must be doing something shady."
In a clearing in the valley, a large group of people gathered around a campfire.
"Brothers!"
"That old witch, Tianshan Tonglao, is incredibly ruthless!"
"In order to drive us to serve her like dogs, she actually planted that extremely vicious life-and-death talisman on us!"
"Yes, if there's the slightest mistake, or if Granny Tong is in a bad mood, the Life and Death Talisman can be activated immediately, causing unbearable pain!"
"It's like...like being devoured by a thousand ants, tormented by alternating freezing and raging fire, it's worse than death!"
"We are all chivalrous heroes of the martial world, how can we be enslaved and driven by that old hag for the rest of our lives?!"
"That's right!"
"The purpose of tonight's gathering of all immortals is to discuss and formulate a set of rules!"
"Boss Wu..."
"What's there to say? We'll storm Lingjiu Palace!"
"Let's capture that old hag alive first and force her to remove the life-and-death talisman from our hands!"
"Yes! Charge into Lingjiu Palace!"
"Kill that old hag!"
The crowd was filled with righteous indignation, their roars shaking the heavens. This group of people were none other than those from the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands.
A secret assembly of immortals was held here to discuss the rebellion against Lingjiu Palace.
From the crowd emerged a burly man with a thick beard, around forty years old, holding a curved knife. He was none other than Boss Wu, the initiator of this gathering.
He walked to the center of the crowd, raised his hand and gestured to silence the murmurs.
"Brothers!"
Old Wu spoke in a booming voice, his face grave, “Tong Lao’s martial arts are unfathomable, and Lingjiu Palace is easy to defend and difficult to attack.”
"If we want to break free from the control of the Child Granny's Life and Death Talisman, we must work together, plan carefully, and catch her off guard!"
"The purpose of convening this Grand Assembly of Ten Thousand Immortals today is to gather wisdom from all sides and devise a foolproof plan."
As he spoke, he stopped, his gaze sweeping over everyone present, and said sternly, "However, defying the Child Granny is a matter of life and death!"
"To prevent leaks, and to ensure that there are no traitors among us!"
At this point, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes, and he abruptly waved his hand, "Bring it up!"
Two henchmen responded by lifting a wriggling sack, untying the ropes, and a beautifully sculpted girl of about eight or nine years old rolled out.
The little girl was terrified; her face turned pale.
Her large eyes were filled with tears as she looked around in terror at the group of menacing adults.
Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, puzzled as to why Boss Wu had suddenly grabbed the girl.
Boss Wu pointed at the trembling girl and said coldly, "This girl was captured from Lingjiu Palace by me at great risk!"
"Whether she is a confidante of the Child Granny or not is another matter, but she is definitely involved with the Lingjiu Palace!"
He looked around at everyone and said, word by word, "Today, everyone present must step forward and cut this girl with a knife!"
"This is the pledge of allegiance!"
"Once blood is drawn, we're stuck on this ship; there's no turning back!"
"We must unite and fight our way to Lingjiu Palace!"
By doing this, Boss Wu is clearly trying to get everyone's hands stained with the blood of Lingjiu Palace, completely cutting off any way back!
Upon hearing this, the little girl trembled with fear, tears streaming down her face.
Oh, this?!
Seeing the girl's tear-streaked face, many of the menacing martial arts heroes showed obvious hesitation and a hint of pity.
This...this seems a bit too much!
Someone said timidly, "Boss Wu, isn't this... a bit inappropriate?"
"What kind of hero kills a child?"
"Yes, we're rebelling against Granny Tong, what does it have to do with this child?"
