Chapter 126 The Followers

The matter of Najing can be put aside for now. Bai Mo started browsing earth-type spirit seeds on Xinghuo.com, intending to install an earth-type spirit seed for himself first. This wouldn't hinder his plans for devouring seeds later.

There are quite a few earth-type spirits, but the Divine Dust Tiger is not an elemental holy spirit, which means it cannot possess a body and give itself more unrestrained control over earth-type elements.

Therefore, even before reaching a higher level, he could only use earth magic in a relatively fixed way, so Bai Mo wasn't very picky about spirit seeds.

He had just enough points to buy a spirit seed. Therefore, after browsing all the spirit lands, Bai Mo chose a spirit seed named Wan Ren.

This spirit seed can enhance the power of his earth magic by 2.5 times, while also expanding the hardness effect of his earth magic, reportedly making it as hard as iron.

Having chosen the right spirit seed, Bai Mo spent the rest of his time practicing his control over earth-type star particles and practicing basic earth waves.

When they got downstairs, the two girls had left sometime earlier. Ding Yumin left a note saying that she had gone shopping with Leng Qing.

Bai Mo's limited imagination couldn't picture what that scene would be like, but he was already happy as long as they didn't start fighting as soon as they met.

Bright yellow star trails flashed around Bai Mo, and a section of the ground in the courtyard suddenly collapsed.

Big Orange watched from the sidelines, acting as the instructor.

It was curious about Bai's move, so it raised its paw and patted the ground.

Instantly, a pit several times larger and deeper than the one Bai Mo had just created appeared.

Daju turned to look at Bai Mo and blinked.

"Quickly level the ground!" Bai Mo was somewhat speechless.

Big Orange lifted the ground back up; it knew this was its home and it couldn't be left in such a state.

Bai Mo decided to train at the school's magic training grounds, as the courtyard was ultimately unsuitable.

Just as I was about to leave after putting away the orange, my phone rang. I took it out and saw that it was Mo Fan calling.

Bai Mo's gaze was somewhat strange, but he still clicked to connect.

"Feed~"

"Bai Mo, you lied to me so badly, you made me lose face." These were the first words Mo Fan said as soon as the call connected.

Raising an eyebrow, Bai Mo walked out of the courtyard, closed the gate, and continued walking, saying as he went.

"What did you lose face about? Tell me in detail."

He showed no remorse or guilt at being exposed.

Mo Fan was speechless. Who knows what kind of inexplicable look Tang Yue gave him when he mysteriously inquired about the Dragon Group that day? She looked at him like he was an idiot.

He also told Xinxia about it, but fortunately, Xinxia always thought he was just talking nonsense. She had her own unique way of judging and understanding his words, so she probably wouldn't laugh at him.

Thinking of this, Mo Fan stopped dwelling on the matter and asked directly:

Are you in Shanghai?

"Yes, what's up?"

"I have a question for you. Do you have time? I'd like to treat you to dinner!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo immediately understood what it was about, and he nodded.

"Alright, come to the Pearl Academy's Lianyan Building."

On the second floor of the cafeteria, three plates of stir-fried dishes were placed on a table, with two people sitting on either side of the table.

"Ask me if you have any questions." Bai Mo glanced at Mo Fan across from him.

"I've awakened my summoning ability. I've looked into this before, and now I want to ask you if there are any special techniques for contracting powerful summoned beasts."

Mo Fan said with a grin, and Bai Mo nodded slightly, thinking that the person he was referring to must be Tang Yue. He then said:

"You want to apply to Pearl Academy using a summoning-based skill?"

"How did you know!"

"Just a guess."

"So, do you have any tricks up your sleeve? Time's almost up," Mo Fan said.

"Do you have money?"

"without!"

"Then use it more often, travel to different dimensional planes more often. It's similar to practicing magic," Bai Mo said.

"Also, summoned beasts are partners, not slaves. Be gentle when signing a soul contract with them."

"That's all?" Mo Fan asked, feeling that this was far too little.

"A true teaching can be contained in a single sentence, while false teachings fill countless volumes. Summoning is an expensive skill, and you don't have the money to burn. Besides these, what else do you want to do?"

Bai Mo shrugged, glanced at Mo Fan, who seemed dissatisfied that he only received these few words in return for a dish costing over thirty yuan.

Mo Fan was also somewhat helpless; he had thought there was some shortcut he could take.

In the end, he still couldn't escape the fate of spending money on in-game purchases.

After saying goodbye to Mo Fan, Bai Mo went to the training ground to practice magic for more than two hours.

Because of the Covenant with the Spring of Earth, even if he practices magic for a month, his magical energy will not be depleted.

Therefore, it's still necessary to have some planning; simply practicing won't be very effective.

As the sun was about to set, more and more people began to walk on the street. Bai Mo arrived at the auction house.

Take out all the warrior-level essences and sell them all at once.

I bought a few more resources that would help my summoned beasts grow, as well as some beast blood and bone powder and spirit seed fragments.

Then they returned to the courtyard.

The sun had completely set by then, but it was not yet dark.

There were no lights in the courtyard, only the lights were on in the rooms on the second floor.

Bai Mo went up to the second floor and saw Ding Yumin cultivating, with wisps of fiery energy emanating from her.

So he didn't disturb them and sat down on the other side to begin his cultivation.

After the cultivation session ended, Bai Mo looked at Ding Yumin and asked the question he had forgotten to ask that afternoon.

"Yumian, now that your talent problem is solved, can you go out with me from now on?"

"Um."

"You are not allowed to utter even a single word!"

"Yes."

Bai Mo casually lay down on the girl's soft, gentle thighs, encased in her pajama bottoms, and asked idly, "Does your totem have any special function?"

"It can enhance the power of my mind magic by two times."

"Is it Bai Ze's totem?"

"I don't know either, there were no instructions inside."

"By the way, we need to tell Dean Xiao that your talent has been brought under control, so he won't worry unnecessarily." Bai Mo looked up, and from this angle, the light above was separated by two round mounds.

It's soft and bouncy, and looks bigger than usual.

Bai Mo felt that his eyes had been deceived.

"Talk to him tomorrow," Ding Yumin replied softly, raising her hand to cover Bai Mo's eyes. "Get up."

"Where did you go with Sister Leng Qing this afternoon?" Bai Mo didn't move, but through the gaps between his fingers, he saw a pair of eyes.

"Blue Sky Hunting Grounds".

"What are you going to the Azure Sky Hunting Grounds for?"

"I went because I wanted to," Ding Yumin said. "Actually, Sister Leng Qing isn't angry anymore."

"Ugh!" Bai Mo turned over, facing inwards, but Ding Yumin turned him back over.

Seeing that his plan was not going to succeed, and fearing that he would lose even the comfortable lap pillow, Bai Mo calmed down and raised his hand to pinch the soft hand covering his face.

He fiddled with each finger one by one, asking, "What are you planning to do during summer vacation?"

"Cultivation, life," Ding Yumin said. "Let's go see Grandma at the end of the month."

"Ah! That's a bit sudden."

"Grandma hasn't been feeling well lately."

"Okay, I'll go with you. Is there anything Grandma likes?"

"No, it's enough that you're there."

A fence entwined with some bright green vines surrounds a small courtyard.

The small eight-immortal table was covered with dishes, only one of which was vegetarian, and none of them were cold dishes.

Ding Yumin sat opposite him, with her younger sister Ding Yunwu beside her. In the main seat, an elderly woman with a full head of white hair looked at him with a kind face.

Bai Mo's bowl was full of food; it was the last time he had faced such a hospitable old man.

Last time,

That was when I went to see my grandparents.

The two elderly people in the family had long since gone on to travel the world, and Bai Mo rarely interacted with people of that age anymore.

Seeing that Grandma Ding Yumin was about to put more food into her bowl, Bai Mo quickly said:

"That's enough, Grandma, please sit down and eat!"

"Okay, okay!"

Ding Yumin watched quietly, a gentle smile on her face, as Bai Mo placed a large mouthful of food in her bowl. "Let you laugh!"

The orange dog ran around in the yard, curious about the big yellow dog lying there.

My eyes were always glued to it.

Time spent together always flies by; it can be as fast as an old person taking a nap or a clash between the big yellow dog and the big orange dog.

Nothing had changed in the courtyard, but the sun was setting, and Bai Mo and Ding Yumin were about to leave.

Grandma Ding held Bai Mo's hand and said earnestly:

"Bai Mo, Yu Mian is a quiet girl sometimes, and she doesn't talk much. I used to worry that she wouldn't be able to make friends. But I never expected that she would have you. You two should try to understand each other more in life. Grandma doesn't have much to give you, so I'll just give you my blessing. I wish you peace and happiness, and that your marriage will last a long time. I hope I can still see you walk down the aisle."

"Thank you, Grandma, I will." Bai Mo said with a smile, glanced at the two sisters, and then went back to the car first, leaving Ding Yumin and her sister to say goodbye to their grandmother.

Back in the courtyard, Bai Mo left the big orange for Ding Yunwu to play with before returning to the Bai family home.

He was now quite proficient with spatial concealment arrays, so he went home and set up a spatial concealment array for the hollow willow tree.

I'll also spend some time with Little Willow; after all, I'm its totem guardian, so I need to communicate with it regularly.

Since Yang Liu became the ruler of the space, there has been a spatial expansion force within a ten-meter radius around him.

No one but him could get close without brute force.

"Master Bai, has that Ke guy from the Research Society stopped causing trouble?"

While Bai Mo was setting up the formation, he asked the Bai family head, who seemed to be observing from the side, as if he were quite idle.

"no."

"Where are the others?"

"No, none of them."

Having received a satisfactory answer, the white ink magic array was almost finished being set up.

The spatial concealment array works on a similar principle to drawing curtains when people take a shower. It involves opening a spatial curtain and using space from other places to gently conceal the space where the hollow willow is located.

Bai Mo developed a spatial magic technique based on this principle, which allows him to become invisible.

Unfortunately, this magic cannot be moved; any movement would expose it.

After the matter of concealing the magic array was resolved, a long period of time followed.

Bai Mo only did two things: cultivate and complete some tasks on Xinghuo.com to replenish his depleted points and wallet.

The effects of the Spirit Seed of Ten Thousand Blades were not yet fully apparent to Bai Mo because he had not yet mastered intermediate-level magic.

However, the swamp vortex created at the beginner level easily shattered the wooden teacher.

Today, Bai Mo accepted a special mission at the Qingtian Hunting Grounds, which required him to eliminate the three nests of blue-scaled fish demons near Dinghu Lake in the wild of Qingyuan District.

The Blue-Scaled Fish Demons are a group of warriors, and their three nests are no less than the remaining ten nests of servants.

Therefore, Bai Mo brought Ding Yumin, who was restless and yearning for change, along with him.

"Ripples of the Soul - Tranquility"

Yingying's inner ripples spread, enveloping a large group of blue-scaled fish demons with claws basking in the sun on the shore.

The big orange's forepaw slammed heavily onto the ground.

The blue-scaled fish demon, who should have been filled with anger and bloodlust upon seeing humans, seemed to have completely lost both of those emotions at this moment.

They continued to lie quietly on the ground by the lake, their eerie eyes watching as their kind were pierced and torn apart by the rocky spears that grew from the earth.

Even so, they lay there quietly, as if death were nothing more than a trivial matter that could not shake their spirits.

"Jisha!"

The pale firelight shone on Ding Yumin's fist, affecting all the fish demons. Then she herself began to fight.

The surging, scorching energy was poured into the ground, and then spread along the ground to the distance where the fish demon could be seen.

Finally, it burst into bloom a brilliant, pale white rose of thorns, forged from raging flames.

Knowing that Ding Yumin's mind magic had a limited duration, Bai Mo transformed into a close-quarters assassin.

Riding the wind trails, he pierced through the swarm of fish demons, taking the lives of ten of them before unleashing a towering tornado.

The lake water, along with the fish demon, was swept up, torn apart, and thrown into the air.

Even a warrior would be shattered and unable to move from a height of several hundred meters.

With the close cooperation of Ding Yumin and Bai Mo, the Blue Scaled Fish Demon was quickly killed by the two.

Even if the Blue Scaled Fish Demon escapes into the water, Ding Yumin will provoke them all out.

Soon, Bai Mo and Ding Yumin wiped out all the blue-scaled fish demons in the three nests.

On his way back, Bai Mo felt a little strange. He'd recently received quite a few assignments to deal with wild demons in the Qingyuan District.

There aren't many on Xinghuo.com, but there are many on Qingtian Hunter.

"Wait!" Ding Yumin suddenly reached out and tugged at Bai Mo, signaling him to stop.

"What's wrong?"

Bai Mo stopped and looked at her with a puzzled expression.

But then I saw that her gaze was fixed in one direction, and I followed her gaze.

From the bushes of moderate height, a creature about 1.5 meters tall was watching them.

To be precise, he was staring at Ding Yumin.

"It's it!" Bai Mo said solemnly.

Its body was pure white, its head somewhat resembled that of a goat, and it had horns that looked a bit like those of a dragon.

Wasn't that the white creature he encountered in the Dabie Mountains?

It actually traveled all the way from the Dabie Mountains to Shanghai!

"He's connected to the totem!" Bai Mo made the judgment instantly.

Looking at Ding Yumin, one could see her smiling at the creature and beckoning.

"Little Bai Ze, come here quickly!"

"It's Bai Ze! How do you know?" Bai Mo asked, somewhat surprised.

Ding Yumin gestured to the pendant around her neck, "It was this pendant that told me that."

"Yo!"

Just then, upon hearing Ding Yumin's call, the pure white creature let out a soft cry and slowly stepped closer.

Ding Yumin reached out and touched the legendary creature, meeting its equally clear and bright eyes.

A ripple of emotion spread out, and she instantly understood Bai Ze's meaning.

"You want to come with me?"
