Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

As time passed, the originally dense lines on the surface of the sphere began to glow one after another, and the number increased.

Until one moment, there was a loud "bang" and it exploded. What came into everyone's sight was a fist-sized white ball of light.

Looking closely, it was not a ball of light at all, but a fist-sized, white little beast with its entire body curled up. It looked like a civet cat, but had a pair of tender light golden wings.

The joy of breaking out of the shell made the little animal instinctively let out a tender "yay" sound, and then it turned into a white light and flew into Mo Juren's arms.

"Aiya..." The little white animal was calling even more happily at this time, and rubbing against Mo Juren's arms, looking extremely intimate.

Seeing this scene, Mo Juren suddenly looked embarrassed. He probably understood something. Perhaps it was because of the previous incubation that the other party regarded him as a "mother".

Of course, no matter how awkward it was, he couldn't push the other person away. After all, the little guy had just been born and was very sensitive. What if he was sad?
"Mr. Mo, congratulations!" A familiar voice sounded. It was Gan Ruying. Compared to the innocent curiosity in her daughter's eyes, the other party had a playful look on his face.

As for the middle-aged man, he seemed to be enjoying the moment but at the same time, he felt a little painful.

Mo Juren immediately thought of something and flew closer, then apologized to the middle-aged man and said, "What happened in the pond just now was not my intention. If I have offended you, I hope you will forgive me."

This attitude surprised the middle-aged man, but he calmed down after all. Thinking that things had come to this point, there was no point in arguing about it, so he nodded slightly:

"You are really lucky, kid. You happened to encounter the broken restriction below, so you swallowed a lot of Five Elements Essence, which is a good thing that is very useful to me! And not only you, but also this little guy and the girl below. In short, I really lost a lot this time."

"Five Elements Essence?" Mo Juren's eyes flashed with something strange, and then he immediately showed a look of surprise.
"It turns out to be such a treasure. I am fortunate enough to be able to absorb it. It is truly a great opportunity. Of course, the most important thing is to thank you for giving me the opportunity."

"You are quite good at talking." Seeing that the other party had always maintained a positive attitude, the middle-aged man no longer cared about it, and then turned to look at Gan Ruying and said,

"I'll leave this to the fairy. I'll go get ready first and we'll set off right away."

After saying this, he left the valley directly. Hearing this, Mo Juren immediately looked puzzled. Before he could ask, Gan Ruying took the initiative to explain the situation.

Upon hearing that the other party and the middle-aged man were also planning to go to the Prison Heaven Tower and would take them with them, Mo Juren was only slightly stunned, and then a look of ecstasy appeared on his face.

This time I'm not pretending, I'm really happy!

I really didn’t expect that!
With two powerful people in the fusion realm accompanying them, what else do they have to worry about in the future? Not only is safety guaranteed, but it can also save as much time as possible.

Before, he had been worried about whether he could reach the Prison Heaven Tower on time. After that, he had to go to the so-called "Dark Valley" to look for the "Nine Nether Soul Crystal" vein, which also took time.

Unfortunately, this trial has limitations. You can only stay for a maximum of three years, after which you will be forcibly expelled from the secret realm by the rules. It is really urgent.

Now, with the existence of two people in the fusion realm, everything is fine.

But at the same time, he also thought of the other side. It couldn't be that the two powerful beings in the fusion realm were going to the Prison Heaven Tower together for no reason. Maybe there was something important?
After thinking about it, he finally knew better than to ask any more questions.

There are some things he should know that he will naturally know, and it is useless to ask about things he shouldn't know.

He immediately turned his head to look at Xiao Yunhuang who was still immersed in meditation not far below, and changed the subject:

"My companion has not yet woken up. I wonder if you can wait for a while?"

"It's okay. It won't take a while. You can stay here for a while. He should wake up soon." Gan Ruying nodded slightly, then flew away with her daughter.

At this time, Mo Juren flew directly to Xiao Yunhuang's side, observed her carefully, and made sure that there was nothing abnormal, then he felt relieved.

The reason why the other party was like this was naturally that, like him and the little beast, he had swallowed a large amount of the five elements' essence, which of course required a certain amount of time to slowly refine.

Speaking of the Five Elements Essence, he was actually no stranger to it. Fairy Xuanming had mentioned this thing when he was in the human world in the past. In addition, the auxiliary device also issued a timely reminder when he was at the bottom of the pool just now.

As the name suggests, this thing is the essence of the five elements. It is born in the place where the five elements' spiritual power converges, and it takes an extremely long time to have a certain possibility of formation.

Any race that absorbs and refines this substance can achieve the miraculous effect of nourishing the meridians and filling the foundation.

Of course, for Mo Juren, these two points are nothing. After all, both his meridians and foundation have long been improved to an unimaginable level with the repeated fusion of blood.

As such, the effectiveness of these five elements' essences is naturally minimal.

In addition to these two points, the Five Elements Essence has another important function, which is to be one of the necessary materials for sublimating the Five Elements body and reversing the innate from the acquired.

When I discussed this matter with Fairy Xuanming in the past, she had specifically mentioned this item, but she also said that it was extremely rare and impossible to find without sufficient opportunity.

But I never thought that I would meet him by accident this time.

When he was at the bottom of the pool just now, he not only absorbed it himself, but also collected a lot of it into the material library instantly through the auxiliary device, which would be enough for future use.

But then again, the effect of the five elements' essence in nourishing the meridians and filling the foundation is indeed not obvious to him, but for the little beast in his arms, or Xiao Yunhuang in front of him, the effect is absolutely top-notch.

Looking at the lively little beast in his arms, how could it look like it had any congenital defects? Xiao Yunhuang was no exception. Although his appearance did not show much, the spiritual power surrounding him had obviously become much purer.

Mo Juren did not disturb the other person, but stood aside and waited patiently. After about a quarter of an hour, the other person finally woke up from his meditation.

The moment he opened his eyes, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

……

Upon hearing that two powerful masters of the fusion realm were going to the Prison Heaven Tower together, Xiao Yunhuang was also overjoyed.

This was too unexpected. I thought that after leaving the Five Color Spring, I would have to return to the original state. Not only would I have to fly out of the Endless Forest, but I would also have to pass through the Dead Silence Mountains, the Lost Desert, and the Sealed Spirit Sea. Each of these three areas was extremely dangerous. Although I was extremely confident in Mo Juren's strength, I was still a little insecure.

Now, with the protection of two powerful men in the fusion realm, everything is no longer a problem.

What made her even more excited was that the time required to reach the Prison Heaven Tower would be greatly shortened if nothing unexpected happened, which also meant that she would be able to enter it earlier.

The benefits of this for subsequent tower exploration are self-evident.

Things turned out just as she had guessed, and the rest of the journey was unusually smooth.

As powerful people in the fusion realm and the "natives" of the secret realm, the middle-aged man and Gan Ruying were simply unconcerned. They didn't even take the Dead Silence Mountains, the Lost Desert, etc. seriously and just flew through them directly.

On the contrary, Mo Juren truly witnessed the horror of the dangerous places he passed through, especially the Dream Crystal Ant Colony in the Lost Desert. The number of those ants was so vast and boundless that it covered the sky and the sun. Even with his strength, he would surely die if he was trapped in it.

According to his original plan, he had been planning to take a detour, but now with the companionship of two great masters in the fusion realm, there would be no problem.

However, there was another thing that surprised him. While crossing the Lost Desert, Gan Ruying actually took action frequently and killed all the strongest queen ants.

For a moment, the originally ferocious ant colony suddenly became chaotic and even began to kill each other.

The other party also gave an explanation in time. It turned out that this Dream Crystal Ant Colony was quite special. Not only did it possess a terrifying reproductive ability, but it was also extremely ferocious and bloodthirsty. It had no intelligence and acted on instinct.

If left unchecked, it would be a nightmare for all living beings in the entire secret realm.

Therefore, all the powerful people in the fusion realm in the secret realm made the same decision. Not only did they set up a large number of seals around the desert to prevent the other party from going out, but they also took action every once in a while to kill all the strongest queen ants.

It is precisely because of this that, after so many years, the Dream Crystal Ants have remained trapped in the Lost Desert.

"Why don't you just get rid of them all once and for all, instead of going through so much trouble?" Somewhere in the sky, a huge flying boat was rapidly flying away. Mo Juren, who was in the central attic, suddenly asked as he looked at the scene flying past outside.

"Do you think we are willing to go through so much trouble?" Gan Ruying smiled helplessly.
“This method has been tried before. We have sent out all the powerful people in the fusion realm, and more than once, but the results are without exception, and they all ended in failure in the end.

The Dream Crystal Ants are extremely strange, not just in number and strength, but also in their talent for survival. I don't know why, but even if we clean up the Lost Desert thoroughly, we are still unable to eradicate them completely.

It was as if the other party had the ability to appear out of thin air. It didn't take too long to wait. In just a few years, it was able to reproduce wildly at an unimaginable speed and soon return to its original size.

After trying several times and seeing that there was no effect, we had to think of another way. Later, we verified that we only needed to get rid of some of the strongest queen ants, and the ant colony would fall into a situation of cannibalism, and it could last for a long time, and eventually most of them would die.

The effect is no worse than if we do it ourselves and mobilize a large number of people, and it saves time and effort, so why not do it?"

At this point, he pointed to a dozen fist-sized strange crystals on the table and continued,
"In addition to saving time and effort, the bodies of these killed queen ants can almost all produce 'Dream Stone', which is a top-level refining material, especially for some treasures with magical powers. If you add some of this stone during refining, the power will increase by three points out of thin air.

In the past, when we traded with the high-ranking officials of the Seven Clans, the Dream Stone was an absolutely hot commodity and could be exchanged for a lot of things. I’ll give you these.”

"Ah, give it to me!" Mo Juren was slightly surprised. To be honest, after hearing the other party's story, he was indeed tempted and was even thinking about whether he could exchange it for a few pieces through a transaction.

However, he didn't expect that before he could even open his mouth, the other party gave him everything.

This really made him feel a little flattered, but he also knew very well in his heart that everything was because of his relationship with the little girl Gu Ximeng.

This scene was naturally seen by the middle-aged man and Xiao Yunhuang who were not far away. The former didn't mind, but the latter's eyes were full of envy.

She knew about the Dream Stone. It was not only a magic weapon, but could also be used in some top-level illusion arrays. Its value was self-evident.

Unfortunately, she can only envy it, as she has no right to ask for it.

"In that case, thank you very much, senior!" Knowing the reason, Mo Juren no longer refused and put the things away immediately. As expected, seeing that he was so considerate, Gan Ruying immediately showed a look of satisfaction.

Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, several days later, the flying boat finally passed through the Lost Desert and was about to enter the 'Sealed Spirit Sea'.

This is an extremely strange sea area, which contains some kind of terrifying mysterious power. Anyone who enters it will have their spiritual power and consciousness suppressed to the limit and will be almost unable to use them.

Unfortunately, there are a large number of ferocious beasts in the sea, which is a nightmare for cultivators who have no magic power and spiritual awareness to rely on.

Therefore, every time the secret realm was opened in the past, the trial participants would usually choose other paths very early to avoid this place.

This will naturally result in a longer detour and consume more time.

Mo Juren also had such an idea, but considering the urgency of time and his own strong body, he decided to give it a try.

But now that I have two people in the fusion realm accompanying me, I don’t have to worry about these things.

What surprised him was that the flying boat stopped not long after leaving the desert. Then everyone left the attic and the flying boat was taken away by Gan Ruying.

Mo Juren was naturally a little confused, but after asking, he learned that the restrictions of the Sealed Spirit Sea were unimaginable, and even cultivators in the Fusion Realm were no exception.

This immediately surprised him. He thought that those in the fusion realm could be immune to these things, but he didn't expect that it was not the case. This shows that this sealed soul sea is really extremely terrifying.

Everyone fell to the ground, and Mo Juren began to look around. He found that they were in an unfamiliar place and did not see the sea.

However, he was not paying attention to these things at this time. Instead, he looked at the two powerful people in the fusion realm, wanting to see what the other party was going to do next? (End of this chapter)
