Immortal Immortal

After the metal dust outbreak, the altitude of Duoji Mountain stopped rising, but the deterioration of the environment became more severe.

Looking around, the vegetation is withered, and a layer of fish and shrimp carcasses are floating on the surface of the river.

The surrounding villages have been abandoned, and the waves of refugees are moving towards towns far away from Duoji Mountain. Occasionally, blackened remains can be seen on the roadside.

boom……

The ground shook again.

Duoji Mountain once again spewed out extremely rich metal dust, and the sky and earth were shrouded in a thick yellowish fog, which was suffocating.

Shanhai Market has become deserted, and most shops are protected by magic circles that isolate the air.

Only a few days have passed, and the beast cultivators from the Rong Town have left one after another. They are really afraid of the sudden strange phenomenon.

The medicinal fields that were originally crowded with people are now deserted everywhere, and only some cultivators are still holding on to the medicinal fields.

The beast disaster is over, but the chess game continues.

Tian Changwen's arrangement left no room for puppet cultivators in Rong Town, forcing Shi Ji and the others to come to Duoji Mountain to settle down.

On the streets of Shanhai Market, it could be seen from the uncontrollable coughs of the casual cultivators that their ending seemed to have been foreshadowed.

However, most casual cultivators still stick to Shanhai Market or Fuxing Town at the foot of the mountain, paying attention to the development of Duoji Mountain.

"What the hell is this world like? I really don't know if it's good or bad..."

Song Liang wrapped his head in a golden sand picture and frowned as he walked through the Shanhai Market.

The casual cultivators who passed by him were generally thin, but the transplanted arms looked extremely strong. They didn't feel like flesh and blood, but lifelike magical weapons.

The puppet cultivator has already realized the advantages and disadvantages of Duoji Mountain.

The transplanted arm is indeed absorbing nutrients from the body and growing continuously, but at the same time, the efficiency of practice is also increasing.

They are so addicted to it that they even think they can easily control the danger and leave calmly before their foundation is severely damaged.

Rogue cultivators were originally a group of lunatics, but now their behavior has become even more extreme.

Song Liang hurried back to the weapon refining shop. As soon as he took off the golden sand diagram, he couldn't help but gasp. He only felt a slight sting in his lungs, which may be caused by accidental inhalation of metal dust.

He subconsciously looked around and found that the monks affiliated with the weapon refining shop were already present, including Zhao Zhu and brother and sister Li Qingfang.

Everyone's skin is generally dull, their eyes are bloodshot, and their gums are black, red and swollen.

Song Liang's eyes fell on the window. Li Mo was sitting expressionlessly, looking at the various casual cultivators along the street.

He couldn't help but smile sarcastically, and then sat in front of Li Mo.

"It seems that your retreat, Fellow Daoist Li, is going well, and your aura is more restrained and solid."

Li Mo hadn't seen Song Liang for a long time. The latter had become richer and richer, and he no longer showed the ability he once had when he was a bodyguard leader.

Song Liang looked slightly uneasy.

After the monk Futu went into seclusion, he monopolized the power of Shanhai Market. Even though he never took the initiative to collect oil and water money, the management of the power of each family still amounted to a large sum.

Li Mo tapped his index finger on the table and said under Song Liang's anxious gaze: "Song Liang, I will no longer interfere in Shanhai Market from now on."

"this……"

Song Liang struggled.

According to his idea, as long as there is a magic circle to protect each shop, it can ensure that casual cultivators can live there for a long time without affecting the earning of spiritual stones.

After all, Shanhai Market is a must-visit place in Duoji Mountain.

Li Mo saw Song Liang's inner resistance and continued while sipping his tea: "I will clearly inform all the forces that if Song Liang wants to maintain the Shanhai Market, you can only negotiate on your own."

Song Liang's eyes flickered, and he was obviously a little moved, but he was afraid that it was Li Mo's temptation, so he quickly explained: "How can you leave Shanhai Market to me, Fellow Daoist Li..."

Li Mo waved his hand and said no more, his meaning was very clear.

"I'll remind you in advance that the puppet cultivators from Rong Town will definitely intervene in Duoli Mountain, and all the beast cultivators have already evacuated."

"From now on, the puppet cultivator will definitely be the dominant one, and it will be difficult to get the spiritual stones in the Shanhai Market."

Li Mo still had something to say. Duoji Mountain was arranged by the Ziqi Sect from beginning to end. It would be too troublesome to continue to be in charge of the Shanhai Market.

He has already earned more than 50,000 mid-grade spiritual stones in the Shanhai Market. With the resource poverty of the Heart Beast Realm, even if he obtains another hundreds of thousands of mid-grade spiritual stones, he will not be able to spend it.

Besides, no one knows what direction Duoji Mountain will develop in the future, so it is better to take a step back and wait and see what happens.

Song Liang frowned in confusion.

He hesitated to withdraw from Shanhai Market, but thinking of the interests involved, he suppressed his thoughts.

"Friend Daoist Li, Shanhai Market involves various forces, so... I will take care of it for now."

Li Mo didn't reveal Song Liang's thoughts, he just glanced at the monks in the weapon refining shop. They were obviously reluctant to let go and couldn't help but lower their heads.

He nodded and shook his head and stood up. After all, the path was chosen by himself.

"Heiwa."

Zhao Zhu hesitated for a long time, then walked out of the crowd with a wry smile, "I haven't been back to Rong Town for a long time. Mr. Xu Hu has taught me a lot. It's really time to go and see his old man."

He clasped his fists and said, "Thank you all for taking care of us. We have a long future ahead."

Brother and sister Li Qingfang didn't say much. Instead, they looked at Zhao Zhu with confusion, wondering why the latter chose to give up his position in charge.

"Pillar."

Li Mo patted Zhao Zhu on the shoulder, and the two walked out of the weapon refining shop side by side.

"If you have time, Zhuzi, please go back to Niujia Village. My second uncle will definitely miss you."

"Well, Heiwa, when are you leaving? Are you going the same way?"

"No, I have to stay and practice near Duoji Mountain. If Zhuzhu has something to do, you can go to Dr. Han at the medical center..."

Zhao Zhu watched Li Mo's back heading towards the thick fog, and his consciousness couldn't help but feel a little dazed. It turned out that twenty years had passed.

Thinking about the embarrassment he felt when he left the village, he couldn't help laughing.

"Hei Wa, I'm waiting for you to have a drink at the pawn shop. I'm going to form a pill!!!"

Li Mo waved his hand in response, and his figure disappeared into the depths of the thick fog.

He walked into the alley without stopping, and after passing through the shadows beside the wall, the old and new human skins were inadvertently switched inside and out.

Li Mo's tattoo pattern disappeared, and his appearance became completely different. Even without the ferocious animality, his temperament was completely different.

He had previously used spiritual talismans to briefly communicate with the Buddhist layman in seclusion, and the latter also advised Li Mo not to wade into troubled waters again.

If you can't bear to part with the abundant haze aura of Duoji Mountain, just find a place to hide.

This is what the Buddhist layman did, and he also took away Jin Li, who was also in seclusion. Even Li Mo didn't know the specific location of the two of them.

Li Mo was in Duoji Mountain, so he had the possibility of being promoted to the false elixir stage in a short period of time.

If ordinary monks inhale metal dust, it will definitely cause irreversible metalization of the internal organs, and they must wear Taoist robes and magic weapons.

Only Li Mo felt like a fish in water.

It seems that the Hunyuan Dao Body was born to stay in an environment with excessive heavy metals.

Li Mo even had the illusion that as the Hunyuan Dao body absorbed metal dust from the outside world, it was invisibly growing its own foundation.

Could it be that the Ziqi sect was established in a highly polluted area, so how obvious would their physical advantage be?

Li Mo was thinking a lot and then came to the northwest corner of Shanhai Market.

He needs to observe the puppet cultivator to determine whether Duoji Mountain is safe, so it is unrealistic to find a cave in a deserted mountain to retreat.

Li Mo stopped in front of a long-abandoned shop.

The walls of the shop are covered with mold, and the doors and windows creak in the wind. It can be seen from the plaque that it was originally used to sell flesh and blood.

Li Mo removed the old plaque, then lived in it grandly, choosing to live in seclusion in the city to continue his practice.

At the same time, the improvement of the Five Poisons and Five Gods and Heart Meridians has no intention of stopping.

It didn't matter that he couldn't use the Shanhai Market to collect fake alchemy skills. As a Taoist, Li Mo was actually qualified to apply for the skills.

Li Mo shamelessly asked Han Cai to help him choose the exercises, but the latter had no choice but to agree.

Not long after, Han Cai used telepathy to grant Li Mo three false alchemy skills, one of which was Taishang Thousand Foot Skills, which he majored in.

Li Mo naturally smiled and turned around to let Daozhong digest the contents of the technique.

The three skills directly promote the rotation of Tao seeds, and the five poisons and five gods heart meridian are completed at a speed visible to the naked eye, becoming more and more mysterious.

Li Mo couldn't take his eyes away and found that the five poisons and five gods and heart meridians were gradually becoming unfamiliar.

The original Taoism not only perfected the contents of the false elixir period, but also the total horn period and the weak crown period. He was ecstatic to see this.

The way the Five Poisons, Five Gods and Heart Meridians break through the false elixir period is very special.

It is actually necessary to absorb the toxins of the five elements, condense a virtual elixir in each of the five internal organs, and return the virtual elixir to the middle dantian when the weak crown period is broken through.

The toxins of the five elements cancel each other out, and you can advance by absorbing the leaked breath of the five elements.

"As expected of the original Tao seed..."

Li Mo has the ability to swallow the body of a roe deer owl, which can turn poison into nutrients, and the poison representing the Five Elements Void Pill will not be wasted at all.

Relying on the false elixir condensed from the Five Poisons and Five Gods and Heart Meridians, Li Mo is 80% sure to form a top-grade golden elixir, laying a solid foundation for becoming a baby.

Even the Five Elements toxins are readily available, the toxins of the tattooed beasts are all kinds of strange, and a large number of poisonous spiritual materials are planted in the Corpse Mountain.

Although Li Mo is in the late stage of the weak crown, he has not yet conquered the three souls. There is no need to rush to consider the Five Elements Void Pill, and he has enough time to prepare.

He repaired the shop to at least ensure that it wouldn't collapse at any time.

Because the transformation of the corpse mountain had not been completed, Li Mo could not open a wine shop, so he simply stayed in the house and retreated to practice.

During this period.

Shanhai Market lacked Li Mo and became chaotic.

Even though Song Liang tried his best to adjust the conflicts between the various forces, when interests were involved, it was difficult for each force to suppress greed.

The Shanhai market is full of overt and covert struggles.

Unknown corpses hanging upside down in front of shops are not uncommon, and this has even spawned a large number of gangs that collect money.

Li Mo originally thought that Shi Ji would personally take charge of Duoji Mountain, but instead of occupying the medicine field, the latter transferred all the puppet cultivators away.

The entire Duoji Mountain is still divided up by individual cultivators.

The more Li Mo thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He suddenly noticed that the arms transplanted all over the body of the casual cultivator were like spiritual materials growing vigorously in the medicine field.

His expression changed slightly, and while informing the Buddhist layman, he stood up and walked down the mountain.

What Shi Ji did was not just to use casual cultivators as spiritual materials and give them to the Ziqi sect that might come to prevent him from being targeted.

While Li Mo was thinking, a bold idea suddenly came to his mind.

I have the credentials and Taoist body of a disciple of the Ziqi Sect. Why can't I replace them and just jump out of this chess game?
