On the way back, they headed west. Chu Mo and Big Rooster had a smooth journey. They did not meet anyone along the way!
One man and one chicken, bickering and bickering for no reason. Their days passed happily. There was no need to rush the way back. Thus, seven days later, Chu Mo and Big Rooster arrived at a place a hundred miles away from Yanhuang City.
They stood on a mountain, looking at the majestic city in the distance.
"How was it? A big city in the mortal world is pretty impressive, isn't it? "Chu Mo looked at the rooster next to him with a smug expression.
"Impressive?" Big Rooster looked at Chu Mo with pity. "Wait until the day you enter the Heaven Realm and see a city in the Heaven Realm. Then you can say that again."
"How boring. This is the mortal realm!" Chu Mo rolled his eyes. "Oh right, Big Rooster, you can't enter the city with me like this. You'll scare the hell out of them. "
"Grandpa Chicken is so wise and mighty. How can I scare people?" Big Rooster looked at Chu Mo, unconvinced.
Chu Mo's mouth twitched. "Have you seen a rooster as big as you?"
"Those chickens in the mortal realm … how can they be compared to Grandpa Chicken?" Big Rooster turned his head away with a cold smile.
Chu Mo looked at Big Rooster with a frown. "Do you think you're invincible in the mortal realm?"
"More or less!" The big rooster said proudly, "Although Grandpa Chicken is not a fighting chicken, not everyone has the qualifications to fight with Grandpa Chicken."
"Forget it. If you want to enter the city with me, you have to keep a low profile. Your appearance … is too eye-catching! "Chu Mo said.
"You mean that Grandpa Chicken is too beautiful?" Big Rooster looked at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo made a retching face. "What I mean is, if you don't want to be made into braised chicken, you have to keep a low profile!"
"Brat … you're looking to die!" Big Rooster flapped his wings and charged at Chu Mo.
"Look at Grandpa Chicken's invincible kick!"
After a while …
"Take your chicken claws away, or I'll stew you!"
"I won't take it away!"
"Are you taking it or not? If you don't take it away, I'm going to take out my sword. "
"Other than this, do you have any other tricks up your sleeve?" The big rooster stepped on Chu Mo's leg and said angrily.
Chu Mo sneered, "There will be in the future!"
The big rooster moved its claws away and snorted, "You're no match for me, yet you only know how to threaten me with a divine artifact. Don't you feel ashamed?"
"You're not even human. How would you know what it feels like to be humiliated?" Chu Mo retorted sarcastically and climbed up from the ground as if nothing had happened.
With his current strength, he wouldn't be a match for the rooster if he didn't use Shi Tian. But he didn't get tired of fighting with the rooster. That was because although the rooster claimed to not be a fighting rooster, its combat strength was actually quite strong, and it was very fierce when it fought.
Especially the last time Chu Mo asked him if he used to be a cockfighting chicken, he had displayed an unparalleled battle prowess. Chu Mo's face was covered in dirt, and it only stopped when Chu Mo threatened it with Murderous Sky.
Then, the rooster's body gradually shrunk, but in the end, it was still twice the size of an ordinary rooster.
In the rooster's words, "Grandpa Chicken has never wronged himself so much in his life. What I'm doing now is already a great sacrifice."
Chu Mo had no choice but to take out a Fish of Fortune to soothe the rooster's wounded pride. Fortunately, this fish made the rooster throw all of his dissatisfaction out the window.
The stone pit was placed by Chu Mo in the jade space next to the small, gray tree. The Fish of Fortune inside were all alive and kicking.
According to the rooster, the Firmament Mirror was a naturally-formed Divine Artifact, so feeding these Fish of Fortune was not a problem. Moreover, as long as these Fish of Fortune had enough food, they would soon start laying eggs and reproducing.
However, when Chu Mo asked what the Fish of Fate ate, the rooster stuttered a little. In the end, under Chu Mo's questioning of Shi Tian, he had no choice but to tell Chu Mo. Food for the Fish of Fortune could not exist in this world.
Perhaps in the Spiritual Realm, but there was no guarantee.
It was a type of insect that lived in the Nether River, called the Nether Worm.
"What river is the Nether River? Is it a river from the Netherworld? "Chu Mo asked the rooster.
"No, it's a river from the Land of Extreme Yin, the Burial Ground. It's called the Nether River." The rooster lowered his head.
"It's impossible for such a place to exist in the Four Symbols Continent, right?" Chu Mo asked in an unfriendly tone.
The rooster nodded. "If such a place existed in the Four Symbols Continent, it would have been eroded by Yin energy long ago. There would be no living creatures. The Netherworld is boundless, so perhaps such a place exists … "
"There's no Nether River here, so naturally there can't be Nether Worms. Without Nether Worms, these Fish of Fortune cannot lay eggs and reproduce. Rooster … In other words, from the Ancient Era until now. The Four Symbols Continent doesn't have a single new fish of fortune. In fact, there are fewer and fewer of them. Am I right? "Chu Mo's voice was cold as he looked at the rooster.
"This … cough cough … Let Grandpa Chicken tell you …"
"Yes or no!"
"Yes!"
Chu Mo glared at the rooster. "Since you already knew, why didn't you tell me? The number of fish is decreasing. If you eat them like this, they won't last until we enter the Spiritual Realm! You'll eat them all! What will you do then? "
The rooster looked at Chu Mo in embarrassment. "Grandpa Chicken knows … but I can't help it."
"From today onwards, you're not allowed to eat a single one!" Chu Mo's expression was fierce. "Until the day we enter the Spiritual Realm, find the Nether River, and catch Nether Worms. Then watch the Fish of Fortune lay eggs with our own eyes! "
The rooster was in the wrong. Seeing Chu Mo's anger, he was a little embarrassed. "Actually … just Nether Worms are not enough …"
Chu Mo looked at him with a dark expression.
The rooster said in a low voice, "We still need the Reincarnation Pond's water …"
Chu Mo resisted the urge to strangle the rooster and said angrily, "Other than the Heavenly Realm, where else can I find that thing?"
"Grandpa Chicken is talking about the Reincarnation Pond's water … not the Six Paths of Reincarnation Pond's water …" The rooster carefully explained in order to eat more Fish of Fortune. He didn't dare to provoke Chu Mo anymore. "The Reincarnation Pond … actually exists in every generation. The Four Symbols Continent … also has it. "
"Really?"
"Yes!"
"Good. Bring me there when we get back!" Chu Mo said.
The rooster shrunk his neck and said meekly, "That place is a little dangerous …"
"I say, why are you so timid?" Chu Mo said angrily.
The rooster was also annoyed. "Grandpa Chicken is timid? Brat, this is what you said. You better remember these words for Grandpa Chicken! When the time comes, Grandpa Chicken will bring you to the Reincarnation Pond. If you don't dare to go there to get water, then swallow your words! "
The man and the rooster snorted at the same time. Ignoring each other, they strolled back to Yan Huang City.
