345: Innate Spiritual Energy

“Little Mo.”

Looking at Mo Emperor’s back, Gu Liangyuan called out affectionately.

At his call, Gu Liangyuan could clearly feel Mo Emperor’s body tremble, but he still didn't turn back.

“Daddy is leaving.”

Gu Liangyuan said again.

This time, Mo Emperor not only didn't stop, but instead quickened his steps to leave.

Seeing that Mo Emperor truly had no intention of making a move, Gu Liangyuan grinned, summoned his Dragon Pao, and leisurely headed towards the Northern Region.

Soon, Mo Emperor returned to the city wall.

His hair covered his face, making his expression unreadable.

“Hun Tuo!”

Mo Emperor squeezed these two words through his teeth!

General Hun Tuo above heard this voice and suddenly shivered.

This feeling was somewhat familiar to him.

He looked down and saw Mo Emperor below suddenly raise his head:

“You’re doing very well!”

After speaking, he raised both hands, holding the Zichu Seal high, and smashed it directly towards the defensive Formation!

Bang!

With one strike, the defensive Formation trembled incessantly, but it did not break.

Mo Emperor’s hands did not stop, as if he was treating the defensive Formation as Gu Liangyuan, striking it again and again!

From his posture, he was determined to smash the defensive Formation.

The panicked Hun Tuo felt extremely panicked at this moment.

The crazy appearance of Gu Liangyuan below was too similar to Mo Emperor.

Could it be that the one below was real?

Thinking of this possibility, Hun Tuo shivered with fright.

If this was the real Mo Emperor, then what he had done before would be enough for him to die ten thousand times over!

No, the person below could never be real.

“Shoot arrows, shoot arrows!”

Hun Tuo shouted frantically, ordering his soldiers to shoot and kill Mo Emperor together.

Whether he was fake or not, as long as he died, then he was fake.

Hun Tuo was acting desperately, these city-guarding soldiers could only obstruct a little, how could they cause substantial harm to Mo Emperor.

Mo Emperor ignored the soldiers' attacks, simply continuing the motion of smashing.

After who knows how long, the defensive Formation was forcibly smashed open by Mo Emperor!

Looking at the panicked Hun Tuo, Mo Emperor suddenly raised his head.

His eyes were bloodshot, like a madman.

Under Hun Tuo's terrified gaze, a large seal struck the top of his head.

With just one blow, Hun Tuo’s Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering.

But Mo Emperor was still not appeased, and continued to smash him repeatedly until Hun Tuo was smashed into a pulp, only then did Mo Emperor’s bloodshot eyes gradually clear.

The other city-guarding soldiers finally reacted, realizing that this was the real Mo Emperor.

Thinking of Hun Tuo's actions just now, they immediately trembled and knelt down in a heap:

“Greetings, Your Majesty.”

Mo Emperor snorted coldly, did not reply, flicked his sleeve, and disappeared between heaven and earth.

Returning to the Gu Mo Imperial Palace, he saw no one and went directly into the Ancestral Temple.

He opened the secret chamber, which contained an ice well.

Mo Emperor directly jumped into this ice well and sat cross-legged.

This ice well was no ordinary object; the water within the pool was formed from the ancient snowmelt of Kunlun Mountain peak, possessing the effect of calming the mind and Qi.

Half a day later, Mo Emperor emerged from seclusion, his face seemingly restored to its usual clarity, and his attire became even neater than before.

However, that hint of hatred deep within his eyes could not be removed no matter what.

“Gu Liangyuan, if I don’t kill you, I swear I’m not human!”

Mo Emperor clenched his fists, swearing in his heart!

As he was thinking this, he suddenly felt a movement coming from deep within the Ancestral Temple.

He frowned, following the movement to find its source.

He discovered two women appearing out of thin air in the deepest part of the Ancestral Temple. Mo Emperor was about to say something when he suddenly recalled the late emperor's last words.

And sensing the rich Immortal Qi on their bodies, he immediately knelt down:

“Mo Zichu greets the two Immortals!”

...

At the border of the Eastern Continent, Gu Liangyuan seemed to have left, but in reality, he had transformed into a withered leaf, quietly observing Mo Emperor's actions.

Seeing that Mo Emperor had indeed retreated, Gu Liangyuan took out various Medicinal Pills and spiritual items for restoring Spiritual Qi, and swallowed them all at once.

Feeling that the Spiritual Qi in his body had recovered by seventy to eighty percent, Gu Liangyuan communicated with Little Gold through his mind, telling him to take him directly to Rulai Holy Land.

There, there was still an Immortal Cave that hadn't been dealt with.

He couldn't let Mo Emperor pick up any scraps.

Half a day later, Gu Liangyuan returned to Rulai Holy Land.

Sensing the probing gazes around him, he transformed into a wisp of clear breeze and directly entered the Jiazi Formation.

After passing through layers of sword Formations, Gu Liangyuan successfully found the entrance to the Immortal Cave as he wished.

This entrance was not a cave or anything similar, but a small, rotating black hole.

Gu Liangyuan swept it with his investigative technique, and all the information about this Immortal Cave was immediately known to him.

Name: Spiritual Mountain Immortal Cave (Incomplete)

Effect: Contains a small amount of Innate Spiritual Qi, which helps in the growth of cultivation.

Innate Spiritual Qi?

Name: Innate Spiritual Qi

Effect: At the beginning of creation, Spiritual Qi was born Innate, hence Innate Spiritual Qi. After various great calamities, Innate Spiritual Qi was exhausted, with only a small amount remaining in certain Immortal Caves and blessed lands.

Innate Spiritual Qi is the purest Qi, able to be absorbed by all, regardless of Spiritual Root attribute.

Gu Liangyuan thoughtfully stepped into the Spiritual Mountain Immortal Cave.

Gu Liangyuan only felt his vision go dark, and when he opened his eyes again, it was suddenly wide open!

He saw that within this Immortal Cave, there were layers of mountains and peaks, lush and green.

Sun, moon, and stars, all were present.

Except for the absence of Law, this Spiritual Mountain Immortal Cave seemed no different from the outside world.

On the green mountains, there were occasionally independent Immortal Caves.

However, these Immortal Caves were already empty.

Gu Liangyuan thought that these should be the residences of those Tribulation Transcendence Realm monks.

Gu Liangyuan unleashed his Divine Sense, enveloping the entire Spiritual Mountain Immortal Cave.

The Restrictions and Formations on the Immortal Caves were all broken with a single thought.

With their masters dead, these Formations were naturally easy to break.

As his Divine Sense swept through these Immortal Caves, a smile appeared on Gu Liangyuan’s face.

With another thought, countless Spirit Treasures and Cultivation Techniques surged towards Gu Liangyuan.

Among these Spirit Treasures, from Yellow Rank Magical Artifacts to High Grade Spirit Treasures, everything was available.

The total quantity was more than what Taishang and Yaochi combined had.

The wealth of Rulai Holy Land exceeded Gu Liangyuan's imagination!

Gu Liangyuan waved his hand, took out nine Spirit Treasures, and then put the rest into his mustard seed bracelet.

The nine Spirit Treasures Gu Liangyuan kept each had a name:

Name: Vajra Pestle

Rank: High Grade Spirit Treasure

Effect: Size and weight can be adjusted at will, it suppresses a First Rank Great Demon – the Divine Soul of the Black Lion.

When swung, the Divine Soul of the Black Lion emits a roar that can suppress one's Divine Soul!

Name: Eighteen Bodhi Seeds

Rank: High Grade Spirit Treasure

Effect: ...

...

Among these Magic Treasures, there were three High Grade Spirit Treasures and six High Grade Spirit Treasures.

These Spirit Treasures were precisely what Gu Liangyuan had prepared for his disciples.

At this moment, he was not lacking in mundane Spirit Treasures; one more or one less made little difference to him.

What he truly lacked were trump card-type treasures.

So he thought about passing them on to his disciples, to see if he could get something good in return.

After thinking for a moment, Gu Liangyuan took out three more from the mustard seed bracelet before putting them away.

These three were prepared to be given to Yang Qiong, Lü Qingmei, and Lin Furen, respectively.

After checking the Spirit Treasures, Gu Liangyuan looked at the Divine Abilities.

With a glance, he immediately learned them.

What puzzled Gu Liangyuan was that these were clearly Buddhist Divine Abilities, but when performed with the Supreme Forgetfulness Scripture, they felt completely harmonious.

After tidying up, Gu Liangyuan's figure flickered, and he arrived at the very center of the Spiritual Mountain Immortal Cave.

In its center, there was an ancient tree that covered the sky and obscured the sun.
