Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

Chapter 1141 Ending and Temporary Return to Tianyuan City

After a few days, the competition finally came to an end.

In the final battle for the top ten, except Xiao Ya, the other nine people tried their best, not only to win rankings and benefits for themselves, but also to win honor for their respective sects.

Xiao Ya is the only exception. She is very clear about her own strength. She was able to enter the top ten just by luck, otherwise she would not be able to beat Chen Tianyi.

Now that the trump card has been exposed, using it again will inevitably have a much reduced effect.

Even though she still has a lot of talismans on her, she may not be able to use them all. After all, one or two are fine, but a large number will require sufficient time to prepare.

Unless the other party is stupid, he will never give her such an opportunity, and if it is just one or two cards, it will be meaningless.

It is not an easy task for anyone to enter the top ten. The remaining nine people, like Chen Tianyi, are all the best in their respective factions, with endless strengths and means, which are far beyond her current ability.

Therefore, in the subsequent top ten battles, Xiao Ya gave up directly in the few times she played.

Such a choice immediately left the many spectators present speechless.

Before, they tried every possible means to get into the top ten, but now they are too lazy to even pretend and just give up.

Unfortunately, they can only watch helplessly at this kind of thing. They cannot learn it even if they want to. After all, who can blame them for not having a master who is at the fusion realm?

In contrast, Xiao Ya's actions made her opponents feel relieved. Although they were all confident in their own abilities, they were still worried when they thought of her background.

Now, the best outcome is to admit defeat voluntarily. It will be good for everyone and save us from a fight.

After the competition was over, the three groups of Qi Refining, Foundation Building and Core Forming had all decided their rankings, and each received corresponding rewards.

But the difference is that those in the Qi Refining and Foundation Building stages are not qualified to enter the Holy Stele Forest. It’s not that they are treated differently, but their realm is too low, and they will not be able to gain anything even if they enter.

The Jindan stage is the lowest requirement, so after the competition, they went directly to the Holy Stele Forest under the leadership of an elder of the Nine Saints Palace.

……

Three months passed in a flash, and except for the sects that made it into the top ten, the rest of the sects bid farewell and left one after another.

During this period, Mo Juren stayed in the Nine Saints Palace and Samsara Peak.

On the one hand, he was waiting for Xiao Ya, and on the other hand, he was also taking advantage of this great opportunity to ask Saint Qinghua some questions about cultivation from time to time.

Especially now that he has broken through to the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm and is not far from the next great realm, the Void Refining Realm, he naturally needs to make adequate preparations in advance.

Whether it is some elixirs that can help increase the chances of breakthrough, or relevant experience, etc., these are what he lacks.

In this regard, Qinghua Sage, as a powerful person in the fusion realm, is undoubtedly a "treasure trove of human knowledge". It is not easy to get such an opportunity, so naturally he should not miss it.

In this regard, Saint Qinghua was indeed good. He answered all the questions he asked in detail without reservation. In just three months, he gained a lot.

Faced with such a result, Mo Juren was delighted and extremely moved. After all, the two parties were not in a master-disciple relationship, but the other party was so generous in teaching him. How could he not be grateful?

Of course, the other party did this for a purpose. He had tried to find out about Senior Zi's situation in various ways, both openly and covertly.

Mo Juren couldn't help but sigh, the other party is really a lovesick person! Unfortunately, since they parted that day, he has never seen Senior Zi again, so naturally he can't provide any information.

Such a result was not beyond the expectations of Saint Qinghua. After all, even he had not gained anything after so many years of investigation.

Three months later, the ten disciples who entered the Holy Stele Forest were forcibly teleported out.

The ten people had different expressions, some were ecstatic, some were depressed, and some were even confused. It was obvious that even if they entered the Holy Stele Forest, not everyone could get the opportunity.

It depends on your understanding and luck!

……

"Is this Tianyuan City? It's really spectacular! Even Xuanwu City is inferior to it." Flying out of the giant green tower and looking at the scene in front of her, the little girl couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Have you been to Xuanwu City?" Mo Juren was slightly surprised. He was naturally well-known for the main city of Xuanwu Realm, especially the giant turtle that inherited the bloodline of the True Spirit Xuanwu. He had longed for it for a long time.

"I went there once with my master before, but we only stayed there for three days before leaving in a hurry!" The little girl nodded and continued,

"It's a pity that I don't have the chance to see the famous giant turtle '骖灵'. My master said that it only appears once every three thousand years on average, absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon. The rest of the time, most of its body is buried in the soil, and its limbs and head are shrunk in its shell and it falls asleep."

"It's a pity indeed, but it doesn't matter. I can go and see it again when I have the chance in the future." Mo Juren smiled and then changed the subject.

"Okay, come with me to the Tianhua Tower first. Also, take this opportunity to take a good stroll around Tianyuan City. Once I have arranged everything here, we will go directly to the Xuanwu Realm."

"Uncle, don't worry. It won't take a few days." The little girl nodded.

It was true that she wanted to go home, but that was just the superficial reason. Her real purpose was to spend more time with the other person. As for where to go, it was not important.

After the competition was over, she explained the situation to her master.

At first, Master Lingyue firmly disagreed. After all, his disciple was so outstanding that he would definitely be watched by countless eyes. But his disciple was too weak, and he was worried about letting him leave his side rashly.

After all, Mo Juren was only a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage and did not have the ability to protect his own disciples.

Just at this moment, the Qinghua Saint who was also present gave a timely reminder, revealing that Mo Juren was not only extremely powerful personally, but also had a powerful spirit beast in the Refining Void Realm to protect him.

At that moment, Master Lingyue was so shocked that he was speechless for a long time.

Given the relationship between humans and demons, let alone the Void Refinement Realm, as long as they reach the Form Transformation Stage, they cannot be forcibly enslaved, at least not openly.

Of course, nothing is absolute and there are always exceptions, but this is generally the rule.

In addition, if one is trained from a young age and does not belong to the bloodline of those big families, there are no restrictions.

However, the time, energy and resources required to train a spiritual beast from a low level to a high level step by step are unimaginable and are totally not worth the effort.

Wouldn't it be better to use so much time, energy and resources on personal cultivation? Only some top sects or ancient families with a long history have the ability to do these things.

For example, the Jiusheng Palace, Lingyue Sect, etc., all have their own guardian spirit beasts, but they are all passed down from their ancestors from generation to generation.

This kid is only at the Spirit Transformation Stage, but he owns a spirit beast at the Void Refinement Stage. It is simply unimaginable. Could it be that he has some unknown background?

After understanding the situation and seeing Zidian's true body with his own eyes, Master Lingyue no longer objected. He just reminded them to be careful and return to the sect as soon as possible, and then left with the other disciples. ...

"Master, you're back!" Inside a room on the fifth floor of Tianhua Tower, Zeng Lufang saw the figure sitting on the main seat as soon as he came in, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute respectfully.

"Manager Wu doesn't seem to be in the building? Is there anything wrong?" Mo Juren nodded and suddenly asked.

"It's not a big deal. A batch of materials arrived not long ago. There were some problems with them. Manager Wu went to take over the materials in person in the Guangyue Building not far away..." Zeng Lu then recounted the situation.

"I see!" Mo Juren nodded slightly, and stopped asking about it. Instead, he changed the subject and said,

"How's the thing I told you to do?"

"Over the years, I have been following your instructions and trying my best to promote the name of Tianhua Tower. However, the three realms and seven areas are too vast, the time is still short, and the channels we can use are too few, so there will not be much effect for the time being." Zeng Lu explained hurriedly.

"It's already very good!" Mo Juren nodded with satisfaction.

"It doesn't matter if the time is short, as long as you keep persisting. You can't stop doing this, you have to keep doing it, and don't worry about the cost of spirit stones. In addition, I plan to go out for a while, and I probably won't be back in a short time. If someone claims to be my old friend, or a disciple, and comes to visit me during this period, you must not neglect them."

"Don't worry, I've taken note of it." Zeng Lu was very smart and did not ask the reason, but replied solemnly.

"That's good. You go down first. Also, notify Manager Wu to come back. I have something else to tell him." Mo Juren waved his hand, and the latter bowed respectfully again before turning and leaving.

"I didn't expect that after only a few decades of not seeing each other, my uncle has already built such a large-scale industry in Tianyuan City! It's amazing!" In the room, the little girl looked around and then smiled sweetly.

"It's just a store, what's the big deal? Besides, I only own half of the market." Mo Juren shook his head slightly, motioned for the other party to sit down, and continued,

"I'm going to leave for a while. Do you plan to go shopping in the market by yourself or come with me?"

"Of course I'll go with uncle. Without you, I'd be too lazy to wander around alone. It's so boring!" The little girl refused without even thinking.

"You!" Mo Juren laughed dumbly.

"Okay, come with me to meet some teammates later, and after that I'll accompany you to stroll around the market."

"With my uncle accompanying me, there will be no problem. Besides, I once heard from my senior sister that the night market here is more prosperous and even more lively than the daytime." The little girl giggled. She was naturally interested in the market in Tianyuan City, especially when she heard that she could trade with the demon clan. She had been looking forward to it for a long time.

Soon, Shopkeeper Wu came over, and Mo Juren did not hesitate and told him that he was leaving.

Zeng Lu is still young after all, and the overall operation of Tianhua Building still depends on him, so some arrangements must be made before leaving.

Shopkeeper Wu has long been accustomed to this. After all, the previous owner of the shop was the same. He often did not show up for decades, and it was he who had been supporting the operation of the shop.

"By the way, is there any news about Miss Wang recently? How is her sister?" After finishing his business, Mo Juren suddenly thought of something and asked again.

In the past, Wang Ke'er met the Qinghua Saint as he wished, but he didn't know what happened afterwards. Now, twenty years have passed, and he has never paid attention to the follow-up of this matter.

However, the shopkeeper Wu in front of him is the other party's confidant, so he should know some of the situation.

"Senior, you may not know that after the former young master returned to the family, he left with the young young master not long after. He has not appeared for more than 20 years. Not to mention his subordinates, even the Wang family does not know where he is."

"This is happening!"

Mo Juren was stunned when he didn't expect the answer to be like this.

It can't be that he's missing, right?

It should be impossible. If his guess is correct, this matter must be closely related to Senior Qinghua. As for what exactly happened, it is unknown.

I was also negligent. Why didn't I think of asking about this matter before I went to the Nine Saints Palace?

Suddenly, he thought of Wen Yun. As Wang Ke'er's most trusted good sister, perhaps she knew something.

"Has the Wang family asked about Tianhua Tower?" Putting aside his thoughts, Mo Juren asked again.

"Only once." When talking about this, Shopkeeper Wu's expression became serious.

"It was probably a few years ago when the Wang family sent a direct descendant to find me. First, he wanted to find out about the whereabouts of the young master, and also asked about the situation of Tianhua Tower.

I naturally know nothing about the young master's affairs. As for Tianhua Tower, I simply explained some of the circumstances and deliberately mentioned the existence of Saint Qinghua. After hearing this, the other party left quickly and never appeared again."

"You are thoughtful!" Mo Juren laughed. Since Shopkeeper Wu brought up the Qinghua Saint, the Wang family would naturally be cautious and would not dare to take over the shop again.

Of course, Saint Qinghua had also specifically reminded that the Wang family was not a good family from top to bottom, and they especially did not like to abide by the rules, so this matter might not be so easy to pass.

But it doesn't matter. I am not a soft persimmon. If the other party is really blind and does something bad, it is still unknown who will win.

He put away his thoughts and stopped dwelling on the matter. Instead, he took out a storage bag from his waist and threw it directly to the other party:

"I have refined some talismans in my spare time over the years. They are all of high-level quality and above. I will sell them in the store. However, the talismans I refined are somewhat special. Both in quality and power, they are more than 30% stronger than similar talismans. Remember to distinguish them when you sell them."

"A talisman! It's of advanced quality!" Shopkeeper Wu was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that his owner was also a talisman master! And if he could refine a talisman of advanced quality, then his level of talisman making must be good.

He sent out his spiritual sense to scan the storage bag and found that there were quite a few of them, probably several thousand. If they were all above high level, then their value would not be a small amount.

In addition, there was a jade slip in the storage bag. Without waiting for him to ask, Mo Juren took the initiative to explain:

"The talismans I refined are all new varieties. They cannot be found on the market. The jade slip contains all the relevant information about the talismans. You can use it for reference."

"So that's how it is! I won't bother you any more, and will take my leave for now!" Shopkeeper Wu suddenly realized, and without asking any more questions, he put away the storage bag and turned to leave.

At this moment, Xiaoya suddenly came closer and said with a grin:

"I'm very curious, uncle, how good are your talisman-making skills? Not to mention those intermediate-level talismans that are almost all top-quality, why do I feel that the advanced talismans are not difficult for you at all?"

"What's wrong with them all being top quality? Maybe I picked them out specifically for you?" Mo Juren laughed.

"Pick it out?" Xiao Ya shook her head slightly.

"I have some understanding of talisman masters. It is not difficult to refine a spiritual talisman, but the quality is difficult to control. Especially if you want to produce a fine product, it is extremely difficult and almost only one in a hundred can survive.

Those intermediate and high-level talismans you gave me, there are more than a thousand of them. If they were really selected, how much would have been refined in total?

This does not include the success rate of the talisman itself. The higher the level of the talisman, the lower the success rate. For those of medium level, even for a talisman master, the success rate is unlikely to exceed 50%. If the two are combined, you will probably die of exhaustion and still not be able to draw it, right?"

"I can't believe it. I haven't seen you for decades, but your brain has become even more useful!" Mo Juren laughed and continued,

"As for my talisman-making level, since you are so smart, just guess it slowly. I think you can guess it."
