The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 871: Chapter 871: Realm of Serenity, Untouched by Dust

The war between the righteous forces and demons in the Corpse Mountain Range is almost concluded.

As a result, the Red Flame Sect has returned to its normal operations. Most of the disciples have immersed themselves in their daily cultivation, whether it’s refining their vitality and mana, earning resources through various methods, traveling to hone themselves, or going into seclusion to break through to higher realms...

According to the sect’s upper management’s plans, future focus will be placed on the development of Five Dragon Mountain, with increased investment in manpower and resources in this area;

This plan is closely tied to the fortunes of over a million cultivators within the sect. Monthly stipends, including spirit stones and elixirs, the various sect missions issued by the Deacon Hall, the range of spiritual medicine and mineral collections, and changes in identity responsibilities will impact every Red Flame Sect cultivator from the Golden Core Realm down to the Body Tempering Realm!

If the Jade Spring Fairy kills the Hollow Venerable in the cultivation world and returns to the Immortal Realm, naturally, peace would ensue, and the existing plans can be continued.

However, even Guan Ling is not sure who of the two True Immortals will ultimately return alive.

If the Jade Spring Fairy is unfortunately killed and the one returning is the Hollow Venerable, the Demon True Immortal, not to mention the Corpse Mountain Range where Five Dragon Mountain is located, even Jade Spring Mountain could be overturned in an instant.

Therefore, Shen Mo believes that there’s no problem with the Red Flame Sect developing Five Dragon Mountain, but not too much manpower and resources should be invested, to avoid wasting them in vain; furthermore, more teleportation arrays should be built so that if things go wrong, more disciples can escape back to Green Cloud Cave. At that time, he will collect the cave and use methods such as Sword Escape and Reverse Yin and Yang to escape far away!

”The Hollow Venerable still has to fulfill the agreement of slaying ten thousand deities, even if one is slain each day, it would take thirty years. There is no need to worry too much in the short term.”

”After all, I plan to head to Dayu Mountain on Dongjie Continent. At that time, I can leave my Gecko False Body on Dongjie Continent! The Heaven Patrolling Temple also comes from the Primordial Realm, with this layer of connections, communication should be relatively smooth. It would be nice to settle a fairyland at an Immortal Mountain near Dayu Mountain.”

The previous false body was obliterated when Shen Mo was taken away by Death Jaw.

As he prepares to head toward Dongjie Continent, he plans to cut out a new false body to leave within the mountain gate, and then rely on Reverse Yin and Yang to directly return to Jade Spring Mountain;

The false body that switches across will continue to remain on Dongjie Continent, and if the Hollow Venerable comes out alive from the cultivation world, he can collect Green Cloud Cave, bringing all Red Flame Sect members and cave creatures to escape to Dongjie Continent to avoid calamity!

The only problem is that Dongjie Continent is too far from Yuquan Mountain on Phoenix Continent;

Once Reverse Yin and Yang is cast, the burden on the soul will reach an extremely terrifying level.

Before that, Shen Mo needs to try his best to enhance his cultivation level and strengthen his soul, lest his real body switches there, but in the end, his soul shatters, resulting in a tragic end of the soul dispersing!

...

Shen Mo just leveraged the attributes of the fairyland to translocate back to GuanYun Mansion, when a graceful silhouette flew out from the Alchemy Room, carrying a hint of herbal fragrance and residual elixir aroma, entering his embrace.

Originally, Lu Taorui and other maid disciples hurried over upon hearing the commotion, but seeing this scene, they all withdrew with knowing smiles, leaving behind only Shen Mo gently descending from mid-air and the stunning beauty in his arms!

After more than a year apart, Shen Mo couldn’t help but carefully observe and appreciate the heavenly beauty before him.

Zhao Lingyin was wearing a simple yet elegant alchemist robe in plain white, her black hair not hanging down her shoulders like a girl’s but was neatly tied into a delicate bun; her visage was as stunning as when they first met, with skin like jade, eyes clear as water, radiant like roses, possessing unmatched beauty, resembling a celestial maiden from heaven!

The faint herbal fragrance was a divine attribute naturally carried by her Green Wood Spirit Body, possessing a marvel unspeakable to others, especially when emotions ran deep.

Perhaps she had just finished concocting a batch of high-class spirit pills, with a trace of elixir scent lingering, mingling with her own fragrance, further enchanting Shen Mo, leaving him in a euphoric daze unable to extricate himself!

Shen Mo gently stroked Zhao Lingyin’s back, not saying much, just quietly savoring this moment of peace and beauty.

”My lord...”

Zhao Lingyin softly lifted her head, whispering tenderly.

”Hmm?”

”Just now, my mind was muddled, and I ruined a batch of Grade Six Spirit Pills. You need to compensate me!” Zhao Lingyin said with a bright, charming smile, her coquettish charm adorable beyond words.

Unknown what crossed her mind, a blush crept over her face, her jade countenance glowing crimson, beauty blooming like spring, akin to a fresh flower budding, or ripples forming on a celestial lake, for a moment she was infinitely charming, a sight of unparalleled beauty both in heaven and earth!

”Alright! I’ll compensate you right now.”

Shen Mo responded with a gentle smile, and as his mind flickered, he was already holding Zhao Lingyin, appearing within the Alchemy Room.

”Creak!”

The door shut tightly, with all internal and external formations and prohibitions instantly activating, concealing everything happening within the room.

Soon, the Alchemy Room would be overflowing with various celestial lights and phenomena.

The two embraced upon a soft cloud bed, whispering intimate words, and at some point, the conversation shifted to topics like Jade Verdant Cave, the two True Immortals, and Death Jaw.

”Fan Ying, that little girl, was chosen by Jiang Lingfeng and accepted as her disciple? She didn’t mention this to me earlier in the Longevity Hall.” Shen Mo remarked thoughtfully while gently brushing Zhao Lingyin’s brow and eyes.

Fan Ying was the girl with pigtails, brought back from Jade Verdant Cave, suspected of being the reincarnation of a Xian Dao stronghold, possessing extraordinary cultivation talent in this life. It wasn’t surprising for sect cultivators to notice her; what puzzled Shen Mo, however, was Jiang Lingfeng’s aversion to trouble, yet she resolved to take on a disciple!

”When we were discussing matters in the Longevity Hall, who would talk about such trivial issues? In a few days, when Senior Sister Jiang visits you, she’ll certainly bring along her newly accepted disciple for you to look after!” Zhao Lingyin said with a bright smile.

”That would be good too. Fan Ying is young, fostering her from a tender age will deepen the master-disciple bond.”

”Besides, this girl was at least a cultivator above the Divine Bridge in her past life. Now, she’s inherited relics from Jade Verdant Cave’s Master Cheng Qianbao; her future prospects are limitless. Perhaps after a hundred years, Jiang Lingfeng might need her disciple’s aid!”

”Speaking of relics and inheritances, I obtained a jade slip with an elixir recipe from the Artifact Spirit of Death Jaw. It was left by an Outer Zone Formless Realm Alchemist. Lingyin, take a look...”

Saying this, a flash of sword light appeared at Shen Mo’s fingertip, revealing the jade slip obtained from Guan Ling.

”Summary of Enlightenment Pill Recipe?” Zhao Lingyin took the jade slip, scanning it with her sense, and with a hint of surprise, murmured softly.
