Chu Mo looked sorrowfully at the tall and majestic mountain in the distance, a look of reluctance in his eyes.
His heart was filled with worry when he thought of his master's previous condition.
"What if master faints again and I'm not by his side? What should I do?
"No, I still have to say goodbye to master in person!
"I have to tell him to be strong and not give up!
"I must find elemental beasts and use their blood to prolong his life!
"That way, I will have time to find the elemental elixirs that master needs!
"As long as I'm alive, I won't let you die so easily!
"I will do everything in my power to save you!
"I know that you have too many unresolved matters in your heart."
Chu Mo thought to himself as he sprinted toward the mountain.
After breaking through to the Yuanguan Realm, the elemental energy in his body was endless. Although he could not fly like the Demon King, walking on this mountain was as easy as walking on flat ground.
It only took Chu Mo a little more than two hours to reach the foot of the mountain.
"Master!
"I'm back!"
Chu Mo shouted as he climbed up the mountain.
This mountain was very steep, and cliffs could be seen everywhere.
Chu Mo's voice reverberated in the mountains, startling some birds and beasts in the forest and causing them to flee in all directions.
Chu Mo ignored them and climbed all the way to the top of the mountain.
When he finally reached the top of the mountain, he was dumbfounded. It turned out that there was nothing there.
The small wooden house that he was familiar with was gone.
Outside the wooden house, the various training equipment that the Demon King had made for him were also gone.
All that was left was an empty field.
"Master …"
Chu Mo's eyes were a little red as he said softly, "I know you don't like relationships, but you …"
"This is too …"
Chu Mo wanted to say that he was heartless, but he could not say it because he knew that the Demon King was not that kind of person who was truly heartless.
It could only be said that his master was an extremely prideful person.
She didn't want to show even the slightest bit of sadness in front of him.
Chu Mo stood there for a long time, feeling a little lost. He recalled every day and every scene he had spent here.
Finally, a determined expression appeared on Chu Mo's face.
"Master, I know you have high expectations of me. I will not let you down!"
With that, Chu Mo knelt on the ground and kowtowed three times to the empty space.
He stood up, turned around, and descended the mountain.
This time, Chu Mo did not look back.
As for the way home, Chu Mo only remembered the general direction.
It was a journey of tens of thousands of miles. What awaited him next would probably be a long and arduous journey.
However, Chu Mo wasn't afraid. He lived well in front of the Demon King, so there was no reason he couldn't conquer this path home.
On this day, Chu Mo did not go very far, because when he left the Demon Lord, it was already quite late, and he had to turn back, delaying a lot of time.
Therefore, Chu Mo only walked for a hundred miles before the sky turned completely dark.
Chu Mo decided to rest for the night and continue his journey tomorrow.
He found a huge ancient tree, climbed up, and sat on a branch that was more than ten feet wide. He leaned against the trunk and began to cultivate silently.
The night sky above his head was dotted with stars, and the world was silent.
With the circulation of the mental cultivation method, a large amount of vitality in the surroundings began to surge towards Chu Mo's body like a tide.
The various meridians in his body also opened up the acupoints at the end of the meridians along with the circulation of the mental cultivation method, welcoming the influx of vitality.
At the same time, as he continued to circulate the mental cultivation method, as a large amount of vitality surged into his body, Chu Mo could clearly feel that he was constantly becoming stronger!
"No wonder Master said that the mental cultivation method is the best in the world."
"It's really powerful!"
"It seems that if I cultivate all the way back to Da Xia, maybe … I have a chance to break through to the fourth level!"
"If that's the case …"
A cold light condensed in Chu Mo's eyes.
A name and a face that he hated to the extreme appeared in front of him.
"Xia Jie!"
"Wash your neck and wait for me!"
At this moment, Chu Mo suddenly felt a little itchy on his body. At the same time, there was a faint trace of a strange smell that entered his nose.
After completing a small circulation, Chu Mo couldn't help but open his eyes and frown as he looked at his body.
With the help of the faint starlight, he subconsciously rolled up his sleeves and glanced at his arm.
His originally pure white arm was now covered with a layer of sticky, pitch-black substance.
That was where the strange smell came from.
"Ugh …"
Even though it came from his body, it still made Chu Mo feel very disgusted.
"What's this?"
Chu Mo frowned and looked at the black thing on his arm with his teeth bared.
Then, he unbuttoned his shirt subconsciously and took a look.
His entire body was almost completely covered by this black substance ….
"Ah!"
This mournful cry traveled far in the quiet night of the mountain forest.
In short, many birds and beasts were scared away by his roar.
Some of the more timid ones would probably be traumatized and would never dare to return here again.
Chu Mo climbed down from the ancient tree with both his hands and feet and rushed toward the mountain stream in his memory.
He rushed to the side of the stream, took off his clothes at the fastest speed and threw them on the bank. With a splash, he directly jumped into the stream.
"Ow ow ow!"
Chu Mo let out another series of ghostly cries and howls.
He jumped out of the water.
This was because the waist-deep stream was too cold!
Even with his physique that had stepped into the Yuanguan Realm, it was somewhat unbearable.
However, he lowered his head and looked at the black thing on his body.
Chu Mo felt disgusted again. He was a person who loved cleanliness. If he did not wash off the dirt on his body today, he was afraid that he would not be able to sleep.
"No, I'd rather freeze to death than die of filth!"
He immediately clenched his teeth and jumped back with a splash.
This time, perhaps he had gotten used to it, or perhaps it was a psychological effect, but in short, Chu Mo felt that the stream did not seem to be as cold as before.
Next, he desperately rubbed down, but the dirt seemed to be stuck to his body. After a lot of effort, he could barely rub off a little.
Chu Mo rolled his eyes and dived into the water. He grabbed a handful of sand and continued to rub …
After tossing and turning in the cold water for more than two hours, Chu Mo finally almost wiped off the dirt on his body.
"Phew!"
Chu Mo finally let out a long sigh and murmured, "What the hell. Why are there so many dirty things on my body? What the hell is going on?"
Suddenly, a chuckle came from the forest.
"Hehe, so stupid!"
"It's just the impurities that are expelled from your body during the process of cultivation, making your physique better. This is called Marrow Cleansing!"
Chu Mo was so scared that he trembled and shouted, "Who is it? Come out! "
"What are you doing hiding in the dark, sneakily?"
Following Chu Mo's angry shout, the forest suddenly became quiet for a moment.
But soon …
"What are you shouting for?"
"Is it to show that your voice is loud?"
"It's not your family's forest, why am I sneaking around?"
The angry voice of a young girl came from the forest. Following that, a young girl wearing a blue dress walked out from the shadows of the forest and stood on the bank of the river, looking down at Chu Mo in the stream.
"I'm out, what do you want?"
"You …" Chu Mo almost fainted from anger in the water. He thought to himself, "Don't you have any shame? Can't you see that I'm bathing in the river naked? "
"You what? Do you think I want to look at you? So thin, and the sky is so dark … Ahem. "The young girl knew that she had said something wrong and immediately stopped talking.
Chu Mo couldn't help but roll his eyes. He had only heard of men peeping at women bathing, but he had never seen a woman peeping at a man.
"Well, sister, I really don't have anything to look at. Can you please go away and let me go ashore to put on my clothes?"
Chu Mo had been in the water for too long and was shivering from the cold. He didn't care about the origin of this young girl and just wanted her to go away quickly.
"Hmph, as if I want to look at you!" The young girl snorted and turned to walk away.
In the dark, he couldn't see her expression, but from her voice, he could hear that this young girl seemed to be a little shy.
Chu Mo watched the young girl's figure disappear into the forest. After waiting for a while, he said tentatively, "You are not allowed to peep at me!"
"Ptui ptui, you little brat, who wants to look at you? If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will kick your clothes into the river!"
"Freeze you to death!"
The young girl really didn't leave, and her voice came from afar.
Chu Mo quickly climbed out of the water. He was really afraid that the other party would do so. That would be terrible.
After quickly putting on his clothes, Chu Mo didn't say anything and turned to leave.
Growing up in the military camp, Chu Mo had learned too much knowledge that a youth of his age couldn't access.
He was far more mature than his peers.
In this desolate mountain that stretched for thousands of miles, a young girl appeared in the middle of the night. She was so bold, and she exuded a strange aura.
"Such a person of unknown origin …"
After Chu Mo put on his clothes and calmed down, there was only one thought left in his mind: stay away from her!
"Hey, why are you so rude? Leaving without saying goodbye? "
What Chu Mo didn't expect was that the young girl actually caught up and rushed to Chu Mo's side. She angrily glared at Chu Mo.
This time, Chu Mo barely saw the young girl's appearance with the help of the hazy starlight from the treetops. He couldn't help but praise in his heart: So beautiful!
He saw that she was wearing a blue dress. Her long hair draped over her shoulders. She had thin curved eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, and cherry lips.
The young girl's skin was extremely white. Even in the dark of the night, it still gave people a feeling that it could be broken with a blow. Her pair of watery eyes sparkled, like the stars in the night sky at this moment.
She had a slender waist and a pair of slender, straight, beautiful legs that were faintly discernible in her dress.
Although she looked young, she gave people a soul-stirring beauty.
"What are you looking at?" The young girl blushed under Chu Mo's somewhat presumptuous gaze and couldn't help but say.
"You're so beautiful, are you a fairy from the mountains?" Chu Mo asked.
In his heart, he faintly felt that it was strange. This place wasn't far from the mountain where he and his master cultivated in seclusion.
With Demon King's ability, if there was a top-notch elemental beast that could transform into human form nearby, he would definitely know.
Then why didn't he catch this young girl?
Because she was beautiful and he couldn't bear to lay his hands on her?
Stop joking!
In the eyes of Demon King, no matter how beautiful this young girl was, as long as she was really a elemental beast, he wouldn't show any mercy.
Chu Mo didn't even think that this young girl was like him, a human. There was only one reason: he didn't believe it!
"You're the fairy!"
"Your whole family are fairies!"
"Which eye of yours saw that I look like those ugly elemental beasts?"
The young girl glared angrily at Chu Mo and scolded him.
"If you're not a fairy in human form, how could you appear here?" Chu Mo sneered.
"Pfft, aren't you here too? Are you also a beast that transformed into a fairy? "The young girl was sharp-tongued and her words were not just ordinary sharp.
Chu Mo scratched his head and felt that what she said seemed to make sense. So, he asked, "Then who are you?"
"Yes … Who am I again?"
The young girl immediately furrowed her willowy eyebrows. Her beautiful face revealed a look of pain and bewilderment.
"Who exactly am I?"
"I can vaguely remember my name …"
"Aiya aiya, you're so annoying!"
"What does who I am have to do with you?"
