The first thing Li Mochen did after returning to Atlanta was to refine the elemental crystal cores given by Bethel Estadine into a compound External Alchemy.
The creation of an External Alchemy was relatively simple. Li Mochen only took two days to complete it, and named it "Five Elements."
Estadine was right. The crystal core of an elemental demigod contained pure magical energy and source energy. It was also very abundant, at least seven times more than a mage of the same level. It was the perfect material for making an External Alchemy.
And the interaction between the five elements — metal, wood, water, fire, and earth — greatly increased the amount of magical energy that the "Five Elements" could provide. This meant that the magical energy contained in this compound External Alchemy would not be inferior to that of a Lesser God.
What was even more surprising was that after the "Five Elements" was refined and the five elements gathered, this External Alchemy produced a power similar to Divine Power.
Just like the "Heart of the Devil Vine," this power was close to Divine Power, and its essence had already changed. It could be used as the source of power for many Level 29 spells.
Therefore, this "Five Elements" External Alchemy was considered by Li Mochen to be the fourth trump card he had after "Tianxin" Li Mochen, the new mythical equipment, and the Scarlet Dragon Armor.
At this time, the refinement of the "Heart of the Devil Vine" had reached a critical stage. Li Mochen planned to make it into a necklace and preserve the Godly Right of Life and Death of the Blue Swamp Magic Vine.
Originally, Li Mochen would not be able to do it. As a basic mythical equipment, it was already very good that this necklace could preserve the four ultimate Law Domains of the Blue Swamp Magic Vine.
As for the power of Godly Right, although it was based on the ultimate Law Domain, its essence came from the Gate of Truth, or "Origin."
Therefore, it was very difficult to preserve the Godly Right on a piece of equipment.
A profound, large-scale, precise, and flawless magical array was necessary. Any mistake would lead to failure on the verge of success, and the entire item might even be destroyed.
The quality of the "Heart of the Devil Vine" was also slightly weak. Although this item could also bear the power of [Origin], its affinity with [Origin] was not high.
It was not impossible to use this material as the main material, but the risk was frighteningly high, and it would also increase the difficulty of designing the Magic Array.
However, the newly obtained Five Elemental External Elixir and the tens of thousands of strands of Merit Qi gave Li Mochen enough confidence.
He did not lack the magical power to forge a Godly Right Artifact, and at the same time, he was confident that he could create a perfect magic array.
Li Mochen's method was very simple. He made a wish to the "Divine Firmament Spirit Purple Gold Pagoda", and then used the "Heavenly Cycle Divine Mystery Mysterious Star Locking Mystic Technique" to calculate.
At the same time, Li Mochen's main body had also entered seclusion to focus on improving the Two Profound Transformation Technique.
The opportunity he obtained in the Dragon's Tomb only increased his two secondary professions, Titan Holy Warrior and Dragon Vein Arcane Master. His main profession was still at Level 15, and the profession level of the Magical Swordsman was closely related to the realm of the Two Profound Transformation Technique.
Before this, Li Mochen's six levels were North God corresponding to the Little Bear Constellation, South God corresponding to the South Pole Constellation, North God corresponding to the Eridani Constellation, True Martial God corresponding to the Phoenix Constellation, Green Dragon corresponding to the Taurus Constellation, and Yellow Dragon corresponding to the Ophiuchus Constellation.
A few months ago, when Li Mochen stepped into the thirteenth level, he chose the Vermillion Bird Deity to correspond to the Cancer Constellation. At the fifteenth level, the eighth level of the 《Dual Profound Transformation Technique》 chose the White Tiger Deity to correspond to the Aquarius Constellation.
At this time, Li Mochen's body already had the Yin and Yang, the four major elements, and the five elements. Normal constellations were no longer of interest to him.
So when he was breaking through the ninth level of the Two Profound Transformation Technique, Li Mochen directly set his sights on the Sun and the Moon, the two largest stars in the sky.
This was very difficult, as it represented the power of extreme Yin and Yang. Every time Li Mochen visualized, he had to take a huge risk. The Sun could directly freeze his soul and devour everything, while the Sun could burn everything he had, turning him into a torch.
At this time, the bloodline of Hyperion and the Blue Dragon came into play. The memories and characteristics of the bloodline allowed him to quickly adapt to these two powers.
From time to time, he borrowed the Five Elemental External Elixir from his secondary body to suppress and regulate the Qi channels in his body.
Li Mochen spent a full three days and finally visualized the 'Sun God' in his sea of consciousness — the so-called 'Sun Palace Fiery Light Sun Lord', also known as the 'God of Great Light'.
There were many Sun Lords in the Taoist legends, such as Di Jun, Hao Tian, and Tai Yi. Li Mochen did not intend to use the dharma bodies of these three. He only used his own understanding of the Law of Flaming Sun to condense his own Sun Deity.
In his dantian, it corresponded to the Moon, which was the Moon.
In fact, the Moon was not the Moon itself, but the darkness and chaos outside the Moon.
As the saying went, extreme Yin gave birth to Yang. The Moon Star that people saw in the starry sky could only be regarded as the power of Yang condensed by the endless darkness, and could not represent the essence of the Moon.
After this step was completed, the magic tower where Li Mochen was in had turned into a sea of fire. Except for the brick walls, almost everything was melted by the extreme flame power. The other side had turned into an ice hell that was close to absolute zero, and everything was frozen.
Fortunately, Li Mochen had already expected this and had stored all the things in advance. The secondary body was at the top of the magic tower, and was not affected by the overflow of his cultivation method.
At this moment, Li Mochen was shocked by the drastic changes in his body.
He felt that the essence of his soul was subliming and strengthening. Endless life force was derived from the two poles of Yin and Yang, and integrated into his flesh and blood. This made Li Mochen's magic power and source energy expand by more than five times in an instant. And this was just the beginning. Every time Li Mochen practiced, he would gain a large amount of True Essence and Dharma power.
As a result, Li Mochen's physical activity had greatly increased. This would greatly improve his physique in the near future.
However, after he completed the ninth level of the "Two Profound Transformation Method", which was the peak of a level-18 profession, Li Mochen stopped.
Li Mochen's ambition made him aim at the two most shocking phenomena in the depths of the Astral World. He intended to use them as the end point of the "Heavenly Cycle Prime Day Formless Sutra" and the "Eighty-Eight Constellations Meditation Method", but Li Mochen felt that his current accumulation was not enough.
He needed half a year to study these phenomena and understand its source and truth. Then, in his Sea of Soul and Dantian, he would condense the final constellation and Prime Day Spirit.
After this closed-door training, Li Mochen often used his magic tower to observe the starry sky. He was concentrating on the two starry sky phenomena, and his heart was filled with anticipation and excitement.
After taking over the body of the original owner, he relied on this body to build a foundation that was unparalleled. After completing the tenth level of the "Two Profound Transformation Method", he was even confident that he could directly skip the two transitional levels of Legend and Demigod, and directly become an "Ancient God".
And even if he gave up the two powerful starry sky phenomena, Li Mochen was still very confident that when he ascended to Legend Level 5, he would be able to cross the Man-God Boundary that many Demigods and Itinerant Immortals could not cross.
At this time, Li Mochen no longer cared about Philip the First and his group. What he cared more about now was the war of the gods that Constantine predicted.
In addition, there was the war with the "Blood Wing Grand Duchy", which was ready to rush out of the Rocher Canyon at any time and launch a counterattack against Xuri Construction.
And there was also his sister Jennifer. Li Mochen also thought that it was time for him to take action. The refining of the "Five Elements" and the condensation of the Sun and the Moon. It had given him the confidence to confront the magician directly.
However, before the start of this action, Li Mochen had to attend a private banquet held by the Mayor of Atlanta for the President's envoy under the strong request of Kang Xiuli.
This was not so much a banquet as a venue for General George Mattiola to reconcile the conflict between them and Philip the First.
As a rapidly expanding force, Xuri Construction was almost independent of the Wildenstein family, so it had to participate in this.
That night, Li Mochen and Philip the First arrived almost at the same time. After the two looked at each other, they ignored each other and walked into the banquet hall.
On behalf of the Mayor, the one who received Li Mochen was Rosie Fandrick of the Fandrick family. The first heir of the Fandrick family and the Mayor of Atlanta were in-laws and cousins.
Li Mochen had never met this person before, so naturally, there was no friendship between them. After a few casual words, they had nothing to say.
Rosie seemed to see Li Mochen's indifference to him, so he looked somewhat dissatisfied. However, he still conscientiously led Li Mochen to a private reception room located in the backyard of this mansion.
"Ha, I finally meet you, the youngest billionaire in America."
After meeting, George Mattiola enthusiastically kissed Li Mochen on the cheek. "Your grandfather said that you went to Stanford to visit your future teacher, right? Is Professor Constantine still in good health? Many people are worried about him. "
This person looked like he was in his forties, but his actual age had reached 300 years. He had participated in World War I and World War II. As a demigod warrior of the Violet family, he had extremely delicate facial features and a strong body that was not commensurate with his beauty. When he hugged Li Mochen, he was full of strength.
"Professor, he looks good. I'm sorry that I couldn't attend your welcome party. I've made an appointment with the professor a long time ago. "
Li Mochen lied through his teeth. He knew that the other party would not ask Constantine for confirmation. He was actually impatient to participate in this impossible negotiation, and he did not intend to make any concessions.
If Conxiuli had not told him today that George Mattiola might announce the president's decision to them, Li Mochen would have gone straight to the Astral Plane to look for the Mage Tower.
After the two parties sat on the left and right of George Mattiola, the latter went straight to the point. "As you all know, I'm here on Mr. President's mission to mediate your dispute. Today is our last meeting. "
He first looked at his lower left. "Conxiuli, I've talked to Philip again and again. He's willing to continue to make concessions and completely give up the Seed of Blood Soul implanted in your body, as well as everything of the Wildenstein family, and retreat to the Old Continent. Everything here will be inherited by you, and Conxiuli, you will swear to forget everything before and start your life anew. Is that okay? "
“NO！”
Conxiuli refused decisively. His expression was also indifferent. "I'm sorry, I can't forget my hatred. If I forget it, then Conxiuli will have no value in existence. "
"You have to look forward, Conxiuli. Don't be lost by hatred."
George Mattiola sighed. He looked at Conxiuli with disappointment and then turned to Li Mochen. "What do you think, André? If you're willing to accept peace, then we can use legal methods to strip most of the Margaret siblings' assets and record it under your name. It's worth about 35 billion gold duns. In addition, the Howard family can also strip 20 billion gold duns of assets as compensation. If you're willing to accept, then Mr. President, myself, and even the National Association of Progressives will be grateful for your personal contribution and sacrifice. "
Li Mochen looked at this person with a faint smile. He thought to himself, This person's position seems to be a little biased. The latter sentence was very obvious with the intention of putting pressure on him.
Can he end the hatred just by paying a little insignificant loss of assets? What a beautiful thought.
Why did he specifically mention the National Association of Progressives? This was the power behind Philip the First?
Li Mochen had heard of this organization. Its original name should be the Southern Plantation Owners' Association. It could be said that it was the ghosts of the defeated after the Civil War.
In its heyday, it included all the plantation owners in the southern states and dozens of upper-class families from the Old Continent. It used to be notorious, only inferior to the Ku Klux Klan.
In the modern day, the organization had changed its name and became one of the largest secret associations in America.
Li Mochen was only surprised that the Violet family might be a member of the National Association of Progressives. This family's territory was in the north.
"I won't accept it."
Li Mochen shook his head. "Unless the people opposite me all die in front of me."
This was also the obsession of the original Li Mochen. It was the only way for him to solve the problem of his soul fusion. There was no possibility of compromise.
Philip the First and Alexandra Howard, who were being stared at by him, could not help but change their expressions slightly. Their eyes also became fierce.
George Mattiola also frowned deeply. His eyes suddenly became fierce, and a trace of displeasure flashed across his face.
"Don't you want to reconsider? André, once the war starts, it will lead to the deaths and injuries of hundreds of thousands of people under your command. It will even affect the City of Atlanta and the public interests of the entire America. I personally do not want to see our country experience such losses. "
This time, Li Mochen did not speak at all. He only responded to George Mattiola with his eyes.
The latter had already understood his answer. His face was slightly pale, but he did not try to persuade him again.
"Then, Mr. Linden, you also do not want to withdraw from this dispute, right?"
"Of course."
Robert Linden nodded slightly. "The Linden family will advance and retreat with our allies."
"Then let me make one last confirmation. Neither of you is willing to give in and end this dispute?"
There was dead silence in the reception room. Ten seconds later, Admiral George Mattiola shrugged helplessly. "Alright! As some people have foreseen, my efforts to mediate have failed. Now, please allow me to convey to you the request of Mr. President. This is also the opinion of Mr. Endel, the mayor of Atlanta. They want you to swear that the war between you will never break out within the City of Atlanta, nor will you take the initiative to attack each other's commercial facilities and personnel in any part of America. The government of America hopes that you can end this dispute by arranging a decisive battle. We will demarcate a battlefield in the World of Darkness and supervise the entry of your personnel. There will be no rules until one side is completely defeated. "
He paused for a moment before continuing, "This war will be supervised by eight Magicians, eight Demigods. They will not allow any of you to withdraw from the war. Her Highness the Goddess of Liberty will personally watch your battle. "
Goddess of Liberty?
Li Mochen's heart trembled slightly, but then he calmed down.
It was not like before, when he needed to worry about the secret that he came from another world being discovered. His soul fusion with the original owner had reached more than 90%, almost equivalent to one.
The attention of the Goddess of Liberty should be said to be expected.
Although this main deity's title had been converted to "Liberty," all the "disputes" in this world could still greatly please this person, especially a conflict at the Demigod level.
The only thing that the goddess did not like to see was large-scale deaths. The reduction of the population would reduce disputes and freedom, and would also weaken her power.
"Acceptable!"
Conxiuli and Philip the First stared at each other. Their gazes clashed across the air, and there seemed to be sparks between them.
"I want to know, when this battle will begin?"
"That depends on the wishes of both sides."
General George Mattiola seemed a little surprised by Conxiuli's decisiveness. While drinking the coffee brought by the servant, he casually glanced at the people here again. "Of course, it can't be dragged on indefinitely. The time limit is four months. The president means that after four months, no matter which side avoids the war, they will lose the protection of the government. You should understand what I mean. "
Of course, Li Mochen understood that losing the protection of the government meant that they would be ignored by the official forces. No one would care about your shop being burned down, and no one would file a case for your subordinates being killed.
In order to end the chaos as soon as possible, the government would even provide a certain amount of help and convenience to the other side.
These were all terms that were beneficial to Philip the First and the others, especially the delineation of the battlefield in the World of Darkness. This made the mobility advantage that Li Mochen had because of Delfina, the Lord of the Void Night, was gone.
However, when George Mattiola finished speaking, the few people on the other side frowned and looked troubled.
This finally made General George Mattiola show a surprised expression. "Philip, what do you think?"
"This is not in our interests, so let's change the plan, Your Excellency!"
It was a female demigod who looked to be only about ten years old, sitting at Roland Benedict's right hand. The corners of her lips were slightly raised in contempt. "Reduce the scale of the war so that only legends and demigods participate. The time will be decided by us, and the people on the other side cannot refuse. "
"Oh ~"
Roland Linden couldn't help but laugh. "This is a very confident proposal. Ms. Clara Konzel, please forgive me for not seeing the fairness of this plan. "
"You will definitely agree," the seemingly young female demigod said with great confidence.
The seemingly young female demigod said with great confidence, "Otherwise, I'll suggest Philip the First and Howard to leave this world and enter the depths of space. You know what this means, don't you, Conxiuli? "
"Are you going to escape? Or are you afraid? "
Conxiuli Wildenstein said expressionlessly, "Philip, I didn't know you were so cowardly. My descendants and I will be ashamed of your bloodline. If you think that leaving the world of light can end all this, you are delusional. I will continue to track you down, and we will not rest until one of us is dead. "
Although his voice was calm, without any ups and downs, everyone present could hear his determination.
Philip the First and Alexandra Howard were both sullen, and the latter even looked at Ms. Konzel with dissatisfaction. This plan was obviously the latter's own idea.
"It is indeed a bit difficult. So there are other conditions, and we will pay a price that will satisfy you. "
Clara Konzel smiled and placed a photo in front of Li Mochen and the others. "Mr. Conxiuli, I guess you should be very interested in this?"
Li Mochen recognized the person in the photo at first glance. It was Mrs. Judith Brown, one of the most famous astrologers on the east coast of America, and a close friend of the original owner's grandmother.
He could not help but squint, thinking that it was not appropriate to take out a photo of a hostage in front of an active general, right? But General George Mattiola did not have any reaction.
"Of course, this is not enough, so —"
Clara Konzel's words came to an abrupt halt. Philip the First raised his hand and stopped her from speaking. This person also looked at Conxiuli calmly. "I do not plan to escape, but I have the ability to perish together with you. This — "
He casually placed a gem in front of him. "You know what this is, right? I will now give it to the government for safekeeping. If I lose in the end, it will be given to you as a wager. "
Li Mochen's heart suddenly trembled. He sensed that this thing had some kind of connection with Conxiuli, and it was very close. The dark light flowing in it was almost the same as Conxiuli's demonic aura.
"This is impossible —"
"Yes!"
Conxiuli frowned and looked at Li Mochen who forcibly interrupted him. The latter ignored his gaze and smiled from ear to ear. "I can agree to your proposal, but I have two conditions. First, during the war between Xuri Construction and the Blood Wing Grand Duchy, we have the right to refuse to fight. "
"Reasonable request!"
General George Mattiola nodded. "For America, and for all of mankind. This is a must! Philip, in this regard, I agree with the Minister of Defense, Lieutenant General Daniel Boone. It is imperative to clean up and suppress the Blood Wing Grand Duchy. As far as I know, many people in the Joint Chiefs of Staff are currently looking forward to the victory of the Blood Wing Grand Duchy. "
"I have no opinion."
Philip the First leaned back. "I know this is also the will of many arms companies, although I do not think that my descendant has the ability to fulfill your wish. Now, let's talk about your second condition, lucky André. "
"You must give us three hours to prepare."
Li Mochen raised his eyebrows again. "Before the battle begins, you must give us time to gather our many legends and demigods."
"Still reasonable."
General George Mattiola's position did not seem to be biased this time, but he changed the condition proposed by Li Mochen. "One hour. The government will provide you with help to ensure that your men can arrive at the battlefield before the battle begins."
Li Mochen suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked at the five-star special attack general again.
