The immortals gathered around it, observing it closely, occasionally touching its bones and skin, praising it with admiration.
"Incredible! It really is a human body!! Heaven is helping us."
"Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are truly impressive. I am completely humbled."
With the success of the first experiment, the eight immortals completely let down their guard. They had already seen the path of cultivation ahead and shared their specific feelings with the Mountain Scorpion Immortal. They were all confident that after transforming into human form, they would greatly increase their chances of breaking through to immortality.
"Fellow Daoist, are you feeling unwell?"
Hu Tianbiao and the White Snake Immortal asked Jiang Mo with concern.
They knew all too well that such a refining process was by no means easy and could not be accomplished without expending a great deal of mental and physical effort.
A burly brown bear immortal chuckled:
"The second refining process isn't urgent; there's plenty of time. Fellow Daoist, if you're tired, take care of yourself first."
“We’ll take good care of you, without any hesitation. If you want any delicacies or tonics, just tell us, and we’ll get them for you, whether we can afford it or not.”
"I'm fine. I'll rest for a day and I need to work on some practical experience."
Jiang Mo planned to spend a day studying the structure of the mountain scorpion's body to determine which part was most unique and valuable, and worth learning from.
"Come on! Let's throw a feast for you. We can't treat you to simple food; you're a distinguished guest!"
Hu Tianbiao laughed loudly and, as the host, immediately arranged for his clansmen to prepare food and wine.
As dusk receded and the sun was about to sink below the horizon, a cool breeze swept through the entire valley.
The nine immortals, along with Jiang Mo and Lu Jin, enjoyed a delicious meal together at the table, chatting freely and having a very pleasant time.
The good times didn't last long. As night fell, a clansman hurriedly reported the news, which immediately made Hu Tianbiao's face darken.
"Ancestor, Master Jiang's whereabouts have been leaked!!!"
"Two old men from Changbai Mountain, accompanied by six or seven trusted followers, are blocking the way outside, looking quite menacing! They claim that Master Jiang is suspected of being involved with the murderers who kidnapped their relatives?!"
No sooner had the words left his mouth than a celestial being, a golden monkey, slammed his fist on the table and rose to his feet:
"Hey! Do you think I don't know what these two old bastards are up to? It's just baseless accusations; they're just looking for trouble."
After several days of interaction, it became convinced that Jiang Mo was not of such low character as to do such a despicable thing.
Some of the immortals gave a soft snort, roughly guessing the other party's intentions. They were being summoned at this crucial moment because they knew the other party wanted to transform into human form and ascend to immortality, and wanted to obstruct them.
"Fellow Daoist, forgive my impertinence, but have you ever indirectly collaborated with others... to abduct the spirits of Changbai Mountain?"
The White Snake Immortal, on the other hand, acted more rationally and decided to ask for clarification first.
"No, I've always been direct in my actions."
Jiang Mo remained calm and shook his head in denial: "If we had really done anything wrong to them, they wouldn't be alive now."
Chapter 333 You beast, you deserve a beating!
Seeing his decisive and unwavering answer, the immortals' expressions changed, filled with worry and apprehension.
Since the other party has prepared a reason, why would they leave empty-handed?
For them, the worst outcome would be that Jiang Mo and Lu Jin are taken away, and their chance to transform into immortals would be cut off. From now on, the three great mountain ranges in the Northeast will still only have two immortals, and the rest will be like fish on a chopping board, at their mercy.
The Mountain Scorpion Immortal was so terrified that his face turned pale and his hands and feet trembled uncontrollably.
It was the first to successfully transform into human form, and it was only half a step away from becoming a celestial being. The two old ghosts at Changbai Mountain's Tianchi and Guanzhi Peak were ruthless and would never let it live if they saw it.
“Fellow Daoist…”
"You and your old friend go ahead, we'll hold out here."
Hu Tianbiao made a quick decision and immediately wanted to arrange for his clansmen to escort them away secretly.
It also yearns to break free from the shackles of life and ascend to the immortal realm. If such a great opportunity were to be snatched away by the two old ghosts of Changbai Mountain, it would not be able to swallow its resentment. Even if it fights until it bleeds, it would not be willing to give in.
"Yes, young friend, you may go ahead first..."
"Two immortals have come this time, and even we are in trouble. You can still leave now."
An old man who looked like a toad was also urging them on.
"Leave? That would be too embarrassing."
"If they can't find me and take their anger out on you, what will you all do then?"
A sharp glint appeared in Jiang Mo's eyes, and he said with great confidence:
"These two mere beasts are nothing to me!"
He came to the Northern Territory to challenge some powerful mountain spirits. The two immortals are undoubtedly the most powerful creatures in the three mountain ranges. It would be a pity to miss this opportunity.
Despite the earnest persuasion of the nine immortals, Jiang Mo defied their objections and insisted on staying.
"Fellow Daoist...this...sigh..."
Seeing that they could not persuade them, the immortals had no choice but to give up. Even the old man from the mountain scorpion, who was determined to escape, managed to calm himself down and decided to stay.
"it is good...."
"Let's see what tricks they're going to pull."
The situation was urgent, and Hu Tianbiao and the other immortals did not have time to find the traitor. Moreover, many of the guests who attended the birthday banquet had already left several days ago, so they could only deal with the immediate crisis first.
"Go, welcome them in."
"Yes, my ancestor."
The fox-faced, human-headed elf dared not delay and went immediately.
Within minutes, seven figures arrived.
Leading the group were two immortal spirits, their bodies flawless, their gazes calm yet filled with supreme majesty. Their slow steps stirred the hearts of many immortals, and the elves who followed were the strongest of their kind. Their terrifying aura swept in like a materialized storm, instantly filling the entire valley.
A fierce wind howled, the wooden house collapsed, and many fox cubs and their offspring hid in fright. Some of the weaker ones even huddled in corners, screaming in terror.
Hu Tianbiao's face was gloomy, his eyes wide with anger. The other party's show of force was extremely arrogant, completely disregarding the leader of his clan.
"enough!"
"Gentlemen, you've come all this way just to humiliate us like this?!"
Hu Tianbiao shouted sharply, revealing his true form. His fox body, several tens of feet long, blotted out the sky and the sun, resembling an ancient ferocious beast. He stood at the forefront, defending the dignity of his clan's land and protecting his descendants in the valley.
"Wow...that's amazing."
The Fallen Dragon Immortal's eyes revealed a look of disdain as she quipped, "You've made further progress than in previous years."
"Gentlemen, if you are not guests here, please turn back. You are not welcome here."
Hu Tianbiao spoke in human language, his voice cold and clear, clearly suppressing his anger. If the difference in their cultivation levels hadn't been so great as to be insurmountable, he would have already attacked.
The immortals who were in the same camp as Hu Tianbiao also stepped forward and inquired about their purpose.
The strongest elves in the Greater Khingan Mountains have gathered here, and this is a struggle between two mountain elf factions.
However, the nine immortals felt despair and powerlessness when faced with the two human-shaped spirits.
Unlike the human Jiang Mo, they knew that Jiang Mo was extremely dangerous, but they could not roughly define the scope of the danger.
As animals that had also cultivated to the point of enlightenment, the two immortals had a complete advantage over them. The throbbing in their blood clearly told them that if they were to fight, the nine immortals would be like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, with little chance of winning.
The Heavenly Pool Immortal's gaze fell sharply on Jiang Mo and Lu Jin, and then on the Mountain Scorpion Immortal who had successfully transformed. Seeing that the Mountain Scorpion Immortal was flawless, the Immortal's face turned frosty, and an invisible killing intent emanated from him.
At the same time, Jiang Mo was also observing the two arrogant spirit immortals with great interest. They were indeed incredibly powerful, more than ten times stronger than Hu Tianbiao and his group of immortals.
The mountain scorpion immortal felt as if it were sitting on pins and needles, its heart pounding, its pupils filled with panic. In an instant, it knew that the other party was determined to kill it, and the intense killing intent caused the surrounding temperature to drop sharply.
Two Spirit Immortals are enough for the entire vast Northeast Plain. The birth of a third Spirit Immortal? Absolutely impossible, unless one were to step over the corpses of the first two.
In the oppressive atmosphere, the Fallen Dragon Spirit broke the deadlock first. Ignoring the other immortals, it focused its attention on Jiang Mo and the Mountain Scorpion Elder. The sinister glint in its eyes subtly disappeared, and it tentatively smiled:
"Fellow Daoist, your supernatural powers are truly wondrous! Did you force this old insect to grow too quickly?"
"......"
The old scorpion's expression shifted between light and dark. Having been so humiliated in front of everyone, and constrained by the vast difference in strength between the two sides, it could only silently lower its head and pretend nothing had happened.
"Speak like a human being, it's too harsh to hear."
Jiang Mo said calmly, even when surrounded by two spirit immortals and five powerful elves, he remained unperturbed.
“Human language... Fellow Daoist, you are joking. We were just being reckless and disturbed you. Please forgive us.”
The Fallen Dragon Fairy wasn't angry; instead, she responded with a smile that concealed a dagger.
Upon their first meeting, the white-haired youth posed a threat to it like a blade pressed against its throat; the other party was so powerful that it dared not easily break off relations.
This scene immediately stunned the immortals present. Their minds went blank, leaving only one thought: that human had cultivated to the same level as the two immortals, or even higher.
Liu Kunsheng, who was accompanying Tianchi Lingxian, gazed at Jiang Mo and Lu Jin, lost in thought, and felt an indescribable sense of unease.
"What is your purpose? Speak plainly, you two."
"To save time."
Jiang Mo asked the two immortals for their questions.
“A few months ago, two of my clan’s younger members were forcibly abducted by humans and their whereabouts are now unknown. Looking around the world, there are only a handful of people with such abilities, and you and your disciples make up the majority of them. Fellow Daoist Jiang, don’t you have anything to say?”
The Heavenly Immortal slowly delivered the questions she had prepared the night before.
Why would I abduct your people?
"If I wanted to kill, I would have done it right in front of you. There's no need for me to hide. This matter has nothing to do with me or the Trinity Sect. If you want to cause trouble, please go elsewhere."
Jiang Mo didn't tolerate it and spoke without any politeness.
"Oh? Talk is cheap. How can I believe you?"
The Celestial Immortal of Tianchi asked in a cold voice, as if about to get angry. His surging aura poured out like a tidal wave, causing the ground to crack open with countless linear fissures, and the entire place fell silent in shock.
"If you don't believe me, then attack me."
Jiang Mo's eyes were like a deep lake as he softly uttered the most breathtaking words.
"I'll give you this chance."
“Killing you, then annihilating your snake offspring and destroying your ancestral land will not be difficult for me.”
"Zhuzi, you are arrogant!"
The Heavenly Lake Spirit was furious. It had lived for over four hundred years and this was the first time it had been so humiliated by humans. Without a word, it wanted to slaughter its entire race.
Even the Fallen Dragon Fairy standing to the side was stunned.
It guessed that the plan for this trip would not go so smoothly, but it did not expect that the other party would overturn the table as soon as it started and specifically name and name the snake cultivators of Tianchi to kill.
Beneath that refined and aloof exterior lies such domineering power!
Jiang Mo was too lazy to prove himself to them, and said firmly:
"Do you need time to think it over? Or... get out of here right now?"
The immortals, including Hu Tianbiao, the White Snake, and the Mountain Scorpion, were both surprised and delighted.
At first, they thought that the young man surnamed Jiang was just too arrogant and might not know the terror of the Spirit Immortals. Now that they have met, they still treat him like dirt, which is enough to show that Jiang Mo's strength is definitely not below that of the two Spirit Immortals working together.
The atmosphere was tense, and sensing the danger, the Fallen Dragon Fairy suggested:
"These words have offended our harmony. In my opinion, fellow Daoist, how about we go to Heavenly Pool for a chat?"
“There are magical instruments there to verify whether what you have said is true or false.”
"?"
Jiang Mo stared at it as if it were an idiot:
"What reason do I have to go with you? Am I someone you can boss around?"
The young man's expression grew cold as he met the seven elves' gazes and said:
"If you're a beast once, you'll be a beast forever."
"Even if you have attained human form, if you still do not know how to restrain yourselves, I can kill you in the blink of an eye."
As the words fell, the two immortals from Changbai Mountain turned cold, too angry to utter a word, but their gazes grew increasingly sharp, wishing they could kill this madman on the spot. They were still concerned about whether they could bear the consequences of taking action.
Jiang Mo's past record is truly terrifying. Seventy years ago, several overlords of the primeval forest, whose cultivation levels were the same as or even stronger than theirs, all died at his hands.
