Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start
Chapter 1184: Primordial Mother Tree
The little girl Gu Ximeng is already thousands of years old and has extraordinary talent. Under normal circumstances, she would have grown up long ago and her cultivation would not be low.
However, fate is unpredictable. He was trapped in a dream when he was still a child. His self-consciousness was dormant for thousands of years. Not only did he not grow at all, he almost lost his life.
It is precisely because of this that the opponent is now only at the Qi Refining Stage, and even her appearance and figure remain that of a little girl.
Such an existence is a complete burden! If you bring it with you, it will not only be of no help, but once you encounter a strong enemy, it will also greatly hinder you.
Deep down, Mo Juren really didn't want to take the other person with him.
"I know what you are worried about, but the actual situation is not what you think..." Gan Ruying shook her head slightly.
“That dream spirit was born by chance and possessed some of my memories, but only a part of them. I only have a vague understanding of many things.
The Supreme Contract originates from the 'Primordial Mother Tree', and its mystery is far beyond our comprehension.
There are indeed certain limitations. If something happens to my daughter, you as her owner will inevitably be implicated, but she is not aware of the most important point.
The misfortune here refers specifically to the annihilation of the soul, and physical damage is not included. Because of the existence of the Supreme Contract, my daughter's soul has formed a special connection with you. As long as you, the master, live one day, her soul will be immortal. In this case, what do you have to worry about?"
"Ah..." After hearing the other party's explanation, Mo Juren couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
A special connection? As long as I am alive, the other person will be immortal. Isn't this too incredible?
There is also a 'Primordial Mother Tree'. What kind of terrifying existence is this?
Almost instantly, he thought of the huge figure that once stood in the vast starry sky, and he suddenly understood something in his heart. It was not surprising that the supreme contract from such an existence had such terrifying power.
If that was true, then he really had nothing to worry about.
"Do you really mean what the senior said?"
"Do you want me to swear an oath?" Gan Ruying snorted coldly and continued,
"This concerns my daughter's future. Do you think I need to lie about this?"
"This..." Mo Juren smiled awkwardly. It was true after thinking about it carefully. The little girl would be with him in the future, and it was unlikely that she would deceive him about such a thing.
I have to say that this supreme contract is truly extraordinary and has such a mysterious effect. But as a signatory, are there any benefits for me?
He immediately asked his thoughts, but Gan Ruying simply shook her head, indicating that this effect was restricted by bloodline and humans were no longer included.
Mo Juren couldn't help but sigh, and without thinking any more, he directly agreed to the other party's request.
As for the little girl Gu Ximeng, she did not have any aversion to this matter. The experience in her dream made her feel familiar with Mo Juren, and even a little close to him.
Now that she knew she could follow the other party to explore the outside world, she was naturally very happy.
The matter was settled, and Mo Juren also spoke up to explain his thoughts at the right time. He planned to set off for the Five-Colored Spring as soon as possible.
However, this matter requires Gan Ruying's help, otherwise the task of "hatching eggs" will be impossible to complete.
This was something that had been agreed upon in advance, so Gan Ruying naturally had no objection. After making some preparations, she took everyone away and headed straight for the Five-Colored Spring.
……
The location of the Five-Colored Spring is also an endless forest, not close to the Ganmulin. There are also many dangers along the way, some of which are no less dangerous than the 'Six-Winged Golden Ring Scorpion' that they had encountered before.
But this time, Mo Juren and Xiao Yunhuang were not afraid at all. The reason was very simple. With Gan Ruying, who was at the fusion realm, protecting them, all dangers were of no use.
Moreover, with the other party leading the way, everyone flew at an incredibly fast speed. It took less than five days to reach the destination.
"Is this the Five-Colored Spring?" Somewhere in the air, Mo Juren looked down and saw a huge lake in the dense forest at a glance.
However, no matter how you look at it, it is just an ordinary lake. There is nothing magical about it. At most, the spiritual energy around it is a little richer.
"As the name suggests, the Five-Colored Spring is just a special spiritual spring. It is naturally not that big. In addition, Daoist Yunhe has already set up a formation to cover it, so it is normal that you can't see it.
As for the location of the Five-Colored Spring, there is nothing special about it. It is on the small island in the central area of the lake." Gan Ruying explained while pointing to a place below.
Mo Juren also suddenly understood, and looked in the direction the other party pointed. Sure enough, he saw the so-called islands, but there were not just one, but more than a dozen of them, in different sizes.
The largest of them is about tens of miles wide, while the smallest is only a hundred feet wide.
As for the formation mentioned by the other party, it was indeed extremely complicated. At least with his spiritual sense, he could not detect it at all.
Just as he was thinking, suddenly, a beam of light flew out from the largest island below, then soared into the air and arrived in front of him in a blink of an eye.
The light quickly faded, revealing a middle-aged man with handsome features and an upright posture. He was dressed very simply, only a green robe, and his feet were bare.
However, there was also something special: her long hair, which was casually scattered down to her calves, was surprisingly colorful.
The moment he saw Gan Ruying, the middle-aged man smiled and said:
"I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be Fairy Ying. I haven't seen you for many years. You are still as graceful as ever! But why are you here in my Five-Colored Spring instead of cultivating in the Holy Land of Ganlin?"
"Of course I'm here to visit an old friend. Why, you're not welcome?" Gan Ruying smiled. Sure enough, upon hearing this, the middle-aged man burst into laughter.
"How could that be? It is my honor to have you here, and I welcome you very much." As the middle-aged man spoke, his eyes fell on the little girl inadvertently, and he asked in surprise.
"Could this be your daughter? She has recovered as before?"
"It is indeed my little girl." Gan Ruying touched her daughter's head and suddenly said with some emotion,
"I have tried every possible way over the past few thousand years. I even asked a Taoist friend for a plant of 'Resurrection Grass', but it was a pity that it never worked. I can only say that I am lucky to have recovered now."
"No matter what the reason is, it's good that you can recover. I would like to congratulate you." The middle-aged man nodded slightly, then changed the subject and said,
"This is not the place to talk. Please follow me into the island and have a chat."
"Sorry for bothering you!"
As soon as the words fell, everyone flew away towards the largest island below.
Soon, everyone entered the formation under the guidance of the middle-aged man, and what came into view was a poetic and picturesque world. The mountains and rivers were beautiful, and the scenery was pleasant. It was no worse than Gan Ruying's Ganlin Holy Land.
Perhaps the only difference is that there are no palace-like buildings here, only a few thatched houses built somewhere between the mountains and rivers.
Seeing this scene, combined with the other party's attire, Mo Juren had a rough guess in his mind. It seemed that the other party was an ascetic monk!
While guessing, he was also constantly searching around, and soon he found something unusual in a valley. In the sky above the valley, there was a layer of faint five-colored light.
If his guess was correct, that should be the location of the Five-Colored Spring!
However, now was not the time to bring up the matter and he had to wait a little longer, so he just observed for a moment and then quickly withdrew his gaze as if nothing had happened.
In comparison, Xiao Yunhuang was not so cautious. The moment she saw the five-colored light, her eyes were filled with undisguised surprise. This scene naturally caught the attention of the middle-aged man, who couldn't help but ponder.
When they walked to the front of the thatched hut, they found a small courtyard where many magical herbs were planted. Their rarity and age were no less than those at Gan Ruying's place.
Mo Juren was naturally very excited, especially since there was a 'Five Elements Fruit Tree' inside, which was one of the ten top spiritual fruits recorded in the pharmacopoeia, and was also the dream of the late-stage Spirit Transformation cultivators.
The 'Five Elements Tempering Yuan Pill' refined from this fruit as the main ingredient has the effect of tempering the five elements of magic power, which is of great benefit for breaking through the Void Refining Realm.
However, he could only dream about such a treasure, as no one would give it to him for no reason.
"My humble abode is simple, and I hope you will forgive me for any negligence." After entering the thatched cottage in the center, the middle-aged man asked everyone to sit down and apologized to Gan Ruying.
"They are just some external possessions, there is no need to neglect them. But you, since you became fascinated by the Confucian and Taoist classics of the human race many years ago, have become less and less like a demon." Gan Ruying shook her head slightly and smiled.
"The mysteries of Confucianism and Taoism are endless, so I am naturally a little obsessed with them. In addition, as I comprehend them over time, they are also of great help to my own state of mind cultivation.
It's a pity that I became enlightened relatively late, and I usually practiced hard, so I didn't have much contact with the people of the Seven Clans. These books were exchanged from "Tunyue Daoyou" many years ago, and they are not very good in both quantity and quality. "
“Although the older generation of us, the powerful fusion realm masters, have contacts with the seven clans from the outside world, it is only at fixed times. Most of the time, we don’t have any interactions.
Since you need these, why not wait until next time? By then, I will recommend you to join the exchange team, and it will not be difficult. Then you can trade directly with the high-level officials of the seven clans."
"Thank you so much, Fairy!" Upon hearing Gan Ruying's words, the middle-aged man immediately showed joy on his face and changed the subject.
"The fairy came here this time with two human cultivators. I guess there must be something going on?"
"It is indeed a small matter..." Gan Ruying did not hide anything and immediately recounted Mo Juren's situation in detail. When he heard that he needed to borrow the Five-Colored Spring, the middle-aged man could not help but ponder for a moment.
Because of his own bloodline qualifications, the importance of the Five-Colored Spring to him is self-evident, but that was only in the past. Ever since he broke through the fusion realm, this spring has no effect on him.
There was no problem in letting this human monk borrow it, but he would never agree to do it for no reason.
"Excuse me, senior, do you need any Confucian and Taoist classics?" At this moment, Mo Juren suddenly had an idea and took the initiative to ask. Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man immediately exclaimed.
"Why, you have it?"
"Indeed there are some, which were obtained by chance by my younger generation in the past. Although there are not many, only a few, they are all true classics." Mo Juren did not hide it and answered directly.
"I need to check a few. If they are all classics as you said, let alone several, even if it's just one, I will agree to the Five-Colored Spring matter."
"Thank you, senior!"
Hearing the other party's promise, Mo Juren was overjoyed. He shook his wrist lightly and streams of light shot out. They were actually jade slips.
He was not stingy and directly handed all the jade slips to the middle-aged man, who immediately couldn't wait to browse through them.
In just a few moments, he had already browsed through it roughly, and a satisfied smile instantly appeared on his face.
"The items are all good. I am very satisfied and will accept them all. I also promise you that you can use the Five-Colored Spring at any time, but the maximum limit is one year.
In addition to these, I also allow you to propose one more condition as a reward for the extra books, as long as it is not too outrageous. "
“It won’t take a year, three months will be enough. As for the conditions…” Mo Juren was very happy in his heart, but his expression became hesitant, as if he wanted to say something but was hesitant and indecisive.
The middle-aged man was not in a hurry about this. He fiddled with the jade slips in his hand with great interest, while waiting patiently and leisurely.
It was not until a moment later that Mo Juren seemed to have finally made up his mind and immediately replied,
"When I came in just now, I saw a five-element fruit tree planted in the yard. I wonder..."
"Five Elements Fruit? You really dare to ask for such a high price, aren't you afraid that I will get angry?" The middle-aged man laughed and was obviously not angry.
"I just expressed my demands truthfully, but it's up to you whether you agree or not. And even if you don't agree, it doesn't matter. I won't take back those Confucian and Taoist classics."
"What you said makes me look petty!" The middle-aged man laughed in silence, and suddenly raised his hand. Suddenly, a five-colored light flew in from outside. It was the Five Elements Fruit.
"If it were in the past, I would never give up this fruit even if there were many treasures, let alone a few Confucian and Taoist classics. You are lucky. For me now, this fruit can only be used to satisfy my appetite, so it's okay to give you one."
As he spoke, he waved his hand again, and the Five Elements Fruit fell directly into Mo Juren's hands.
"Senior, you are so generous. I am very grateful!" Looking at the spiritual fruit in his hand, Mo Juren was overjoyed. He really didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
Naturally, Gan Ruying saw all of this and felt a bit of admiration in her heart. She had thought that this matter would require her to pay a little, but in the end, the other party did it by himself.
At this moment, the middle-aged man suddenly moved his hands and cast a spell into the air, then nodded slightly and said:
"There are restrictions around the Five Color Spring, but I have removed them now. You can go directly over there. Just shout when it's over."
"Thank you, senior!" Mo Juren thanked him again and without further delay, he stood up and left. Xiao Yunhuang, who was standing beside him, did not hesitate at all, and after a slight bow, he also followed closely.
Until the two of them left, Gan Ruying suddenly put away her smile and her expression became unusually solemn:
"A few months ago, I received a message from 'Daoyou Chi Guang'. That thing has started to become restless again. And compared to the past, this time it is more violent. I'm afraid more manpower is needed."
"So fast?" The middle-aged man frowned, but soon recovered and said as usual.
"As long as there is no problem with the Prison Heaven Tower, it will be useless to bother with that thing."
"That's true in theory, but no one can guarantee that there won't be any unexpected situations. Anyway, we should leave as soon as possible and resolve the matter as soon as possible." (End of this chapter)
