A series of system notifications woke Li Mozhi from his seclusion. He was slightly taken aback, and immediately scanned the entire Hengyue Sect with his divine sense, but did not find Wang Lin's figure.

As luck would have it, on the twenty-fifth day, Li Mozhi scanned the area with his divine sense and discovered that Wang Lin was still cultivating. So he took the last Qingyun Pill to consolidate his own cultivation.

"Before I went into seclusion, Wang Lin was preparing to establish his foundation. Four Foundation Establishment Pills were barely enough for his talent. Even with Situ Nan's help, the failures would outweigh the successes."

"In the original story, Wang Lin's clone swallowed eight Foundation Establishment Pills at the Yuntian Sect before successfully establishing his foundation. I was thinking that if he failed to establish his foundation, I would use my Nascent Soul cultivation to help him establish his foundation, which would also delay him for a while longer."

"Forget about him for now, I'll ask Liu Wenju about the situation later. It's reward time now!" Li Mozhi stopped worrying about it and focused on the rewards offered by the roadblock system.

The moment Li Mozhi opened and closed his eyes, red lightning flashed wildly in his pupils. This red lightning, representing the extreme realm, appeared in his right eye!

At almost the same time, the nascent soul within Li Mozhi's body opened its eyes. Its right eye had no pupil; instead, there were only bursts of red lightning. These lightning bolts were not singular but rather rows upon rows of countless lightning clouds.

A devastating pressure poured out wildly from the red lightning in his right eye, instantly dispersing the dense spiritual energy of the entire back mountain.

"Is this the ultimate level of 'using any means necessary'? It really does have the power to destroy the world!" Li Mozhi's long hair moved without wind, but a crimson light appeared from the roots of his hair, making Li Mozhi look extremely eerie.

"The Extreme Realm is known as invincible within its own realm, so I can now be considered the number one person below the Nascent Soul stage!" Li Mozhi clenched his fists, the red lightning in his right eye flashing wildly, and said in an eerie manner.

"However, my Extreme Realm is a magical artifact. Each time it is used, it will consume one part of it. If it is not replenished, it will eventually run out." Li Mozhi said slowly as he felt the power of the Extreme Realm's divine sense.

"That's the same as Wang Lin's ultimate state after he lost his power, but I don't need to lose my power and start over to comprehend the essence."

Just then, a "whoosh, whoosh!" sound interrupted Li Mozhi's thoughts.

Li Mozhi was currently within the large formation on the back mountain, not within the formation within the formation where he specifically cultivated.

He looked up and saw that a rain of spirit stones was falling from the back mountain, with countless rhomboid crystals radiating light pouring out.

For a moment, the spiritual energy within the great array on the back mountain was several times denser than that within the array itself.

Li Mozhi smiled and quickly waved his hand, putting the entire ten thousand top-grade spirit stones into his storage bag.

There was also a small bottle mixed in. Li Mozhi opened it and carefully examined the Qi-replenishing pill in his hand. "Now is not the time to improve my cultivation."

He then put the pills into his storage bag.

A glint of light flashed in Li Mozhi's eyes. After pondering for a moment, he first took out an ancient bronze mirror from his storage bag.

This object is called the Thunder Strike Mirror. Two ferocious thunder dragons are carved around the bronze mirror, their expressions lifelike, as if they are about to fly into the sky and soar above the heavens at any moment.

The Thunder Strike Mirror was a precious elixir bestowed upon Li Mozhi by the founder of the Hengyue Sect after he advanced to the Foundation Establishment stage, and was used to protect Li Mozhi's personal safety.

As its name suggests, after the caster infuses spiritual power into the mirror, it will reflect the sky above. The thunder dragon will sense this and unleash a thunderous divine punishment to kill the enemy. Furthermore, the mirror's power will be several times stronger than usual during thunderstorms.

"Isn't this just a human-shaped lightning rod?!"

However, Li Mozhi no longer needed this precious pill. The red lightning in his right eye was flashing wildly. With a thought, he stored his ultimate divine sense in the Thunder Extreme Mystic Mirror.

Instantly, the Thunder Mirror trembled incessantly, only stopping after several breaths. Red lightning flashed in the eyes of the two carved thunder dragons!

The Xuanjing contained about one-tenth of Li Mozhi's ultimate divine sense, and its power was enough to instantly kill several Nascent Soul stage cultivators!

After doing all this, he moved swiftly and appeared at the location of the formation within a formation.

He narrowed his eyes, constantly switching the hand seals, and finally discovered the core of the formation: the incredibly mysterious pentagram array was slowly operating.

This formation was set up by several founders of the Hengyue Sect at great expense. Li Mo knew he was not proficient in the art of formations and could not make any changes, but he could replace the raw materials inside to make the formation's spiritual energy even more concentrated.

Li Mozhi first took out the ninety-nine high-grade spirit stones from the formation. Most of the high-grade spirit stones had become dull and turned into dust the moment they were taken out.

"Even if we don't remove it, the formation won't last many more years."

With a wave of his hand, Li Mozhi took out ninety-nine top-grade spirit stones from his storage bag, installed them one by one, and then transmitted his thoughts to Liu Wenju.

"Come to the back mountain to see me immediately."

A short while later, Liu Wenju was teleported in. His vision blurred for a moment, and when it cleared, he was surprised to find that the spiritual energy in the back mountain was several times denser than before. With each breath, the dense spiritual energy entered his body, even causing his long-dormant cultivation to loosen up a bit.

"What major events have occurred within the sect recently?" Li Mozhi asked calmly.

"Nothing major? No, but... Wang Lin asked for leave from the sect today and has gone home to visit his family," Liu Wenju said slowly after thinking for a moment.

"Visiting relatives...it's time to visit relatives..." Li Mozhi's voice was barely audible, then his expression turned solemn as he said seriously, "I have important business to attend to and need to go on a long trip. During this time, you must protect the Hengyue Sect."

He then took out the Mystic Mirror that stored his Extreme Realm Divine Consciousness, as well as a jade slip.

"This Xuan Mirror possesses immense power, but it is also a consumable item with a limited number of uses. It should not be used carelessly unless absolutely necessary. Remember this!"

"Within this great formation in the back mountain, there is another formation within a formation. It is a cultivation place jointly set up by several founders of the Hengyue Sect. I have perfected it, and I have recorded the usage method and relocation method in the jade slip. You can study it on your own after I leave."

"Ancestor, this, this is..." Liu Wenju suddenly raised his head, took it with both hands, and said in a trembling voice.

"Don't worry."

"If I haven't returned after a year, you... should relocate your entire sect. If I'm alright, I will definitely come looking for you!"

After speaking, Li Mozhi put his hands behind his back, his face calm, and his eyes looking into the distance with deep concentration.

……

"I, Liu Wenju, will certainly live up to the expectations of our ancestor."
