Mortals: Take Mo Juren at the start

Chapter 941: Mirage Beast and Soul-Breaking Mountains

"How is your body? If you really can't do it, go into the mustard seed space to recuperate." Mo Juren retracted his gaze and turned to look at Xiao Qi.

"It's just that I consumed a lot of mana, but the injury is not serious. I just received the pure spiritual power from the master, and now I'm fine." Xiao Qi nodded, and suddenly thought of something, and said again,

"All teleportations are random. It's the same here, and Sister Zhuiyue must be no exception. I wonder if she will be in danger?"

  "Do you think everyone is as useless as you?" Mo Juren raised his hand and tapped the other person on the forehead before explaining.

"The Lightning Gathering Banner in her hand is extremely extraordinary. With her strength, she can fully exert the power of this banner and there will be no problems easily."

"You, huh..." Rubbing his forehead, Xiao Qi couldn't help but roll his eyes at the other person. Why are you touching me when you can just talk? Do you really think I'm a pet?

However, what the other party said was not wrong. Sister Zhuiyue was indeed much stronger than himself, but nothing was absolute. If he encountered the Golden Dragon King or other unknown troubles, it would still be dangerous.

"This secret realm is a bit weird, and who knows what might happen. Now that the matter here has been resolved, let's go find Sister Zhuiyue as soon as possible, just in case." Putting away his thoughts, Xiao Qi suggested again.

"What you said makes sense, but..." Mo Juren smiled, and suddenly a large wooden box appeared in his hand. After opening it, it was filled with densely packed formation flags and formation plates.

"This is..." Xiao Qi was a little confused. He watched the other party quickly arrange the formation flags and formation plates in the area of ​​nearly a thousand feet around, just surrounding the corpses of the monsters. He couldn't help but think about something in his heart.

After finishing everything, Mo Juren glanced at the ground again, then gave a wink to Xiao Qi. The latter understood what he meant and didn't ask any more questions. He immediately broke through the air with the other party.

As the two left, the surroundings became quiet, with only the corpses of monsters scattered all over the ground.

About a quarter of an hour later, suddenly, the originally calm ground shook slightly, and the next moment, a huge gray shadow broke out of the ground.

The gray shadow was surrounded by thick gray fog, and it was impossible to tell what it was. After it appeared, it pounced directly on the scattered corpses of monsters on the ground and began to eat them greedily.

At this moment, dazzling rays of light suddenly burst out from the surrounding ground, forming a huge hexagonal light shield, completely sealing off the area within a thousand feet.

The gray shadow happened to be among them, and by the time he reacted, it was already too late.

In panic, he immediately tried to drill into the ground, but unfortunately he failed. The area below was also within the restricted area. When he rushed left and right, trying to break through the light shield, it also failed.

At the same time, two beams of light suddenly came from afar. They were Mo Juren and Xiao Qi who had just left not long ago.

Looking at the unknown monster trapped in the formation, Mo Juren, who had expected this, looked normal, but Xiao Qi was full of surprise.

The other party had just told her that there were unknown monsters under the ground, and since this Gobi Desert had caused such a great disturbance to the cultivators' spiritual consciousness, the culprit was most likely this monster.

At first she was a little bit unconvinced, but now seeing it with her own eyes, she had to believe it.

  However, she was also a little confused. What kind of monster was trapped in the formation that possessed such a powerful confusing power that even the consciousness of a Nascent Soul stage expert would be disturbed?

Of course, Mo Juren is an exception. He is only affected when he is outside. After entering the Gobi Desert, everything is exposed.

At this moment, the monster inside the light curtain changed again. The original gray fog was gradually becoming illusory, and after a moment, it completely disappeared.

"This..." Xiao Qi was stunned, because it was not only the gray fog that disappeared, but also the monster beast.

"Could it be that there was something wrong with the formation, allowing it to escape?"

"Escape? How is that possible? He just hid himself." Mo Juren laughed. This formation was the 'Six Extremes Locking Space Formation' that was replicated in the Futu Secret Realm. It was used to imprison the Fairy Xuanming.

One can imagine how powerful it is in sealing. Although the set in front of him was just imitated by Xin Ruyin and its effectiveness is only one tenth of the original formation, it is enough to trap a monster.

Of course, this formation still has too many shortcomings for now. For example, it only has the ability to trap, but it cannot transform, attack, etc.

"Hidden?" Xiao Qi frowned. She was not talking nonsense just now. In addition to looking with her eyes, she also used her spiritual sense to explore, and the inside of the formation was indeed empty.

"This also shows that this monster is indeed not simple. It even hid it from you." Mo Juren didn't say anything else. He appeared inside the formation in a flash.

  His eyes flashed blue light, and he glanced towards a corner, then said with a half-smile,

"This ability to hide and transform is indeed extraordinary. It's only because you met Mo. If it were someone else, they really wouldn't be able to detect your existence."

As he spoke, he immediately took action. Sword lights emerged and slashed towards a certain void at a high speed.

The unknown monster was immediately startled and could no longer hide. It could only dodge quickly. However, there were too many flying swords, especially in such a small space. How could it possibly hide?

Soon, the opponent was hit by the flying sword, blood gushed out from the wounds, and his originally hidden figure was completely exposed.

Not only that, the Ice Soul Black Crystal Sword carried a dry blue ice flame, which continued to spread into his body along the wound, and even throughout his body.

Therefore, in just a moment, the opponent's demon body began to stiffen rapidly until it completely turned into an ice sculpture, and at this time, its true appearance finally emerged.

"Real dragon!" Xiao Qi also entered the formation and looked at the dragon-shaped monster inside the ice sculpture. He couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Real dragon, you really dare to imagine it?" Mo Juren laughed and looked at the monster inside the ice sculpture for a while. It must be said that Xiao Qi's exclamation was understandable, because the other party's appearance was too similar to the legendary real dragon, whether it was the claws, scales, or even the pair of dragon horns on the head.

But it is obvious that this can't be a real dragon. It can be more like a Jiaolong, but there are still differences in appearance, especially the dragon's horns.

"I have roughly guessed what kind of monster this is. I didn't expect it to really exist in the world today?" But at this moment, Xiao Qi seemed to suddenly think of something and said with surprise on his face.

"Tell me about it?" Mo Juren also became interested and asked immediately.

  "This is a mirage beast, which can be considered a type of dragon. The difference is that this beast does not have much combat power, but it is unparalleled in terms of illusion and concealment. In particular, the mirage mist spewed out by this beast has an extremely terrifying ability to corrode spiritual consciousness and is almost unstoppable." Xiao Qi explained it with some excitement, and then said,

"The bloodline level of this beast is much stronger than that of the Jiaolong clan in the outer sea, or the Suanni royal clan. It has not yet transformed at level nine, so its future growth potential is limitless."

"Mirage beast?" Mo Juren was slightly surprised. He naturally knew something about this top-level exotic beast that only existed in legends, but he only knew the surface of it and it could not be compared with the real thing at all.

"The mirage beast is too precious and almost impossible to find in the world. I suggest that the master do not kill it, but tame and train it. It will definitely be useful in the future." Suddenly, Xiao Qi spoke again to remind.

Hearing this, Mo Juren nodded immediately. He had no intention of killing the mirage beast directly. When he heard Xiao Qi's suggestion, he naturally agreed. The next step was the process of subduing it. There is no need to elaborate. In short, after the old-fashioned coercion and inducement, the other party was not stupid and was immediately subdued.

"We have been delayed for a long time. It is time for us to leave immediately!" After putting the mirage beast into the spirit beast bag, Mo Juren had no intention of delaying any longer and left quickly with Xiao Qi.

……

A few days later, somewhere in the secret realm, Mo Juren and Xiao Qi finally saw Zhuiyue.

Compared to Xiao Qi's "weakness", who almost lost his life, Zhui Yue's situation was much better. Not only was there no danger, but he killed monsters and obtained elixirs along the way, and reaped a lot of rewards.

After hearing what Xiaoqi had encountered, Zhuiyue was also terrified. He was also glad that he had a master like Mo Juren who rushed to rescue him in the first place, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Don't worry, sister. I'm fine, aren't I?" Seeing the worry on Zhuiyue's face, Xiaoqi felt warm in his heart and quickly comforted her with a smile.

  "You are lucky this time, but if you encounter this situation again in the future, it may not be the same." Zhuiyue shook his head slightly and continued,

"After all, your strength is too weak, otherwise you wouldn't be so passive. But you want to improve your strength, but your situation doesn't allow it..."

Thinking of Xiao Qi's physical condition, Zhuiyue couldn't help but sigh. It's not that the other party didn't work hard, but it was due to physical limitations, so there was no point in practicing hard.

"This secret realm is an accident. You'd better not take risks easily unless it is necessary in the future."

"Don't worry, sister. I know everything." Hearing the other party's advice, Xiao Qi was moved but also a little amused. His strength was indeed not high, but he shouldn't be so fragile, right?

However, the other party was also worried and confused, so she naturally understood and did not refute anything.

The two girls continued their journey with Mo Juren while they were talking to each other. With the latter's escort, the journey naturally became "smooth". Any crisis or other monsters they encountered were easily resolved with a wave of their hands.

This made the two women feel a little emotional. The gap between them and their master was still too big. What was troublesome for them was just a piece of cake for the other party.

It was not until more than half a month had passed that the three of them suddenly stopped their escape and looked intently, only to see a mountain area suddenly appear in front of their sight.

The mountain range was extremely vast, stretching for who knows how many miles. In the center of the entire mountain range, stood a super giant mountain, which was no less powerful than the holy mountain in Tianxing City.

What's even more bizarre is that the giant mountain is actually split into two from top to bottom. The left half is lush and green, like a fairyland, while the right half is filled with black air and is desolate.

"Demonic energy!" Mo Juren recognized it immediately when he saw the black energy permeating the other half of the giant mountain.

The two women beside him were also surprised. There was such a strange place in the secret realm! Especially the huge mountain. If you didn't know, you would think it was two halves of the mountain put together.

"Master mentioned before that the core of the secret realm has been determined. Could it be that he is referring to this mountain range?"

"Is that true?" Mo Juren did not deny it, but immediately changed the subject.

"But although the information I got recorded this place, it did not mention the situation of demonic energy. I don't know why this is the case."

As he spoke, he suddenly slapped a spirit beast bag on his waist, and suddenly a gray light shot out, and a dragon-shaped monster about a foot long appeared.

This was naturally the mirage beast that had just been tamed. As a native of this place, it might know something.

  However, when he asked the question, the mirage beast immediately shook its head and said telepathically:

"Master, you don't know that the many monsters in this secret realm all have their own territories. The Gobi Desert where I am is one of them. They usually never leave. So although I know a little about the situation here, I don't know the details."

"Territory?" Mo Juren thought of the innate stone fetus before. The other party was in a similar situation. He only lived within the stone forest and would not go out.

"So you don't know the situation here either?"

"I have only heard other great monsters mention that this is the 'Soul-Breaking Mountains'. That giant mountain is also called the 'Yin Yang Mountain'. It is the place where a certain ancient great power passed away. He is also the creator of this secret place. All of us monsters living here were actually spiritual beasts raised by him."

"If that's the case, why don't you know anything about that powerful man?" Mo Juren frowned.

"Maybe I was too young at the time, so I don't have any memory of him. I only know that I have been living in that desert area since I awakened my spiritual intelligence."

"So that's how it is." It was obvious that the mirage beast, like the innate stone fetus, didn't know much about this core mountain range, so there was no point in asking further.

Mo Juren simply gave up and put the other party back into the spirit beast bag. Then he called the two women together and rushed straight into the mountains.

What surprised him was that although the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire Soul-Breaking Mountains was not low, it was as quiet as death, and there were no monsters or beasts except plants.

However, as he gradually approached the 'Yin Yang Mountain', an extremely strange feeling began to appear, as if two different forces suddenly emerged in his heart, one good and one evil, which made him feel a little irritated.

Turning to look at Zhuiyue and Xiaoqi, they were obviously in a similar situation. Unlike him, the two girls were frowning, especially Xiaoqi, whose face was pale.

"Are you okay?" Mo Juren asked hurriedly. Zhuiyue shook her head slightly to indicate that she was fine, but Xiaoqi, who had been seriously injured before, was obviously unable to hold on.

"You'd better go into space and take shelter."

"That's fine!"

Xiao Qi also knew that if he continued to stay outside he would only be a hindrance, so he did not refute it and immediately entered the Tianxiang Pendant under Mo Juren's command.

Mo Juren and Zhuiyue continued to move forward, and soon they arrived at the foot of the giant mountain. The strange power became stronger and stronger, and even Zhuiyue's face turned pale.

Just when he was thinking about whether to let the other party enter the space, at this moment, Mo Juren suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked towards the waist of the giant mountain.

There was a familiar figure there, climbing towards the top of the mountain along the rugged mountain road.
