Disaster Strikes

After one stick of incense.

Chen Mo arrived at the Lingshou Mountain Station.

Facing the questioning of the guard disciples, Chen Mo hurriedly said: "I am Chen Mo, a disciple of the Hehuan Sect, and I come to pay my respects to Fairy Chen Yuting. Please inform her."

Although the relationship between Lingshou Mountain and the Hehuan Sect has never been an ally, they have always kept to themselves. Therefore, when Chen Mo reported the name of the Hehuan Sect, the other party did not make it difficult.

After a while.

A haggard female cultivator walked out of the Lingshou Mountain Station, looked at Chen Mo, and frowned slightly.

"Who are you? I don't think I have ever seen you."

Chen Mo smiled and bowed respectfully.

"I am Chen Mo, and this is indeed the first time I have met the fairy. This time I came uninvited because I want to ask the fairy for something."

Chen Yuting said lightly: "What is it?"

Although the Hehuan Sect does not have much hatred with Lingshou Mountain on weekdays, she showed a vigilant look.

"It's like this. I heard that the fairy has a pair of mature golden slashing mantises. With these spiritual insects, the fairy is famous among the disciples who practice Qi in Lingshou Mountain. It happens that I also have a female mantis, so I want to inoculate the fairy's male mantis for cultivation..."

"No!"

Chen Yuting said sternly: "Not to mention that the secret realm is about to open. If the male mantis is allowed to mate with it, the combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced. If a pair of unfamiliar male and female golden slashing mantises are forced to mate, the result is likely that the male mantis will be eaten by the female mantis during mating. Do you think I will agree?"

Huh?

Chen Mo was surprised when he heard this.

This is something he had never thought of.

However, if Chen Mo missed this opportunity, he might not have another chance.

Although he did not deliberately pursue the best materials for his first alienation refining, if he lost a golden slashing mantis, it would be equivalent to missing an element, which was really a pity.

Therefore, Chen Mo gritted his teeth and took out an object to explore the way.

"If I take this thing in exchange for a chance, is that okay?"

What Chen Mo took out was Peng Wanlie's Green Dragon Flag.

"This flag was originally a top-grade magic weapon. I don't need to say much about its value. It was damaged in a fight. If it can be repaired with some materials, even if it cannot restore the power of a top-grade magic weapon, it can definitely be included in the top level among the middle-grade magic weapons..."

Compared to taking it back to the Disaster World for recycling as magic materials, it would be a better choice if it could be sold in the Guixu World and brought back spiritual stone resources.

After seeing the Green Dragon Flag, Chen Yuting couldn't move her eyes away.

There is no doubt.

This was once a top-grade magic weapon. Although it was damaged, it was not irreparable. What the other party said made sense, which made her heart beat.

Thinking of this.

Chen Yuting's beautiful eyes revealed a thoughtful look.

"Your Excellency just wants to borrow my male mantis to cultivate the eggs of the Golden Slashing Mantis?"

"Yes."

After seeing Chen Mo's affirmative answer, Chen Yuting actually smiled cunningly.

"Instead of letting my spirit insects mate at the risk of being devoured, there are actually other better solutions."

"Oh?"

While Chen Mo was puzzled, Chen Yuting looked around and whispered, "Follow me."

After a while.

Chen Yuting took Chen Mo to a secluded place, and then took out two golden slashing mantis larvae from the spirit beast bag, which were only one-tenth the size of the adult insects.

She showed a hint of reluctance.

"I have cultivated this pair of larvae for three years, but they have not yet recognized their master. Now they have entered a period of rapid growth. If you are willing to spend the price and provide them with monster blood food, they should be able to be cultivated to the adult stage in more than a year. Of course, if you are willing to let these two little guys devour the adult golden slashing mantis, the time will be greatly shortened."

Hearing this, Chen Mo's eyes lit up.

This is indeed a better solution.

The transaction process between the two was quite smooth, and both got what they wanted.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Chen Mo has made full preparations for this trip to the secret realm. I wonder if you are interested in participating in the private trade fair tonight?"

Chen Yuting smiled and said, "This trade fair is mainly for the true disciples of the five major sects to exchange what they have. I happen to be one of the organizers of this event. Although I have never heard of your name before, you are qualified to participate since you can bring out such a magical weapon."

Private trade fair?

I guess Yao Li participated in this trade fair.

If I follow Chen Yuting to join, it will inevitably make her embarrassed to see her, so forget it.

Besides, compared to the trade fair, he has other more important things to do, so he can only politely refuse.

"That's a pity."

Chen Yuting said regretfully, "In that case, I won't bother you."

"Goodbye."

After leaving Chen Yuting, the first thing Chen Mo did when he returned to the room was to recognize the two golden mantises as his master.

The process was very smooth.

This master recognition ceremony has only one purpose, that is, in the future cultivation process, he will not be hurt by these two spiritual insects.

After doing all this, the sky darkened unconsciously.

Chen Mo came to a teahouse in the town as agreed. Just a moment later, Ning Ying and Feng Yuzhe appeared one after another.

Feng Yuzhe picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Ning Ying suddenly said: "By the way, there is something I forgot to tell you."

"What?"

Ningying looked at the Wind Whisperer and said calmly: "While completing the side mission, I was inspired by the traveler and felt that he was a reliable captain, so I decided to join his travel group."

The Wind Whisperer was stunned when he heard this.

He looked Chen Mo up and down, but he couldn't see what his special skills were. He was a little confused for a while.

Chen Mo shook his head and smiled when he heard this.

"I don't have that much charm. It's Miss Ningying who showed her love and pity. She didn't despise the weak travel group and condescended to come to me."

Chen Mo's boasting made Ningying raise her eyebrows. Although she didn't care about these external things, she felt very comfortable in her heart.

The Wind Whisperer showed a little caution.

Originally, he thought that this cooperation was between three different camps. Now it seems that he has to be more careful. God knows whether these two people will team up to deal with him in the face of interests. He is not used to putting his life in the hands of others.

"To be honest, I refused to participate in your side quest before, in addition to being full of concerns about this temporary team, according to my investigation, this secret realm itself should also be considered a side quest, but it is just a hidden side quest without any hints.

Hidden side quest?

This is the first time Chen Mo has heard of it.

Ningying nodded and said, "What you said makes some sense."

Then she noticed Chen Mo's doubts and explained, "The so-called hidden side quest refers to the special clues described in the clues and hints of the task issuer during the task release process. Some clues are clearly written into the disaster contract, requiring the task issuer to give clear hints."

Chen Mo nodded thoughtfully after hearing this.

"It seems that there may be something extraordinary hidden in this secret realm."

Then he couldn't help but think of Ningying telling him that the task they experienced was probably just in the task process of one or some high-level natural disasters, and he couldn't help but be more convinced of his guess.

"By the way. "

The Wind Speaker suddenly said: "You said before that the reward for killing the cultivators in this world is much higher than the same level creatures in other worlds?"

"Yes."

Chen Mo said: "The points reward is at least twice that of the same creatures in other worlds, and the props reward is even more exaggerated. The explosion rate of materials, talismans, and energy stones is amazing, enough to make up for the loss of equipment and skill scrolls. This is a very rich world. The Xuanling World is really good at choosing places to preach."

When the Wind Speaker heard this, he revealed a bloodthirsty look and couldn't help licking his lips.

"If this is true, taking this opportunity to kill more cultivators is also a good choice. ”

Compared to Chen Mo and Ning Ying, melee scourgers, especially those with speed attributes, are undoubtedly more advantageous when fighting against monks.

First, it is the restraint of professional combat methods.

Second, the protective aura that monks rely on is undoubtedly too easy to break under the combo skills of these scourgers.

Even if the protective aura cannot be broken in a short period of time, the ordinary attacks of these scourgers will affect the process of monks condensing their true energy and increase their skill cooling time, which can be said to be extremely restrained.

After the three of them met face to face and reached a cooperation agreement, the wind whisperer left alone.

"This person is quite strong. His talent is called wind power. Every 15 points of speed increases 1 point of strength. It can be seen that his melee strength must be quite strong. If he was there when executing the side quest of killing the traitor of the Five Colors Gate, maybe he would not be like this now. "

Ningying's Eye of Eternal Night is so convenient.

Hearing this, Chen Mo was also surprised by the talent of the Windtalker. He knew that Ningying was reminding him that this Windtalker was a potential stock.

"Let's see what his character is like through this cooperation."

Chen Mo's first impression of this person was not good or bad, but it was better to be cautious. He didn't want to be careful of his teammates during the mission in the future.

The two chatted for a while.

Chen Mo saw that Ningying still had no intention of going back, and kept looking around, as if observing the environment here through the Eye of Truth, and couldn't help showing a little surprise.

"What's wrong? "

Ningying pondered for a moment, seeming a little puzzled.

"Although the scale of the restrictions here is very large, I have been observing for an afternoon. The only thing that can be confirmed is that the formation masters of the five major sects are indeed planning to break the formation with formations, but these barriers seem to be mixed with some foreign compound restrictions..."

Listening to Ningying's explanation, Chen Mo couldn't help but frown.

According to her, the formation masters of the five major sects want to try to break the formation with formations in the secret realm barrier here, which is similar to installing a temporary door for the secret realm, and these hidden compound restrictions are another lock on this temporary door.

It's just that I don't know whether this compound restriction is a secret arrangement of the five major sects, or a more advanced formation master of a sect is secretly working, or some other force.

Chen Mo's basic formation attainment is only Lv1, so naturally he can't understand the mystery.

"In your opinion, what should we do? "

Seeing Chen Mo's cautious attitude, Ning Ying looked indifferent.

"We should remain unchanged in the face of all changes. No matter what conspiracy they have, we just need to ensure that we can get out safely, so I am designing a reverse escape restriction. "

To put it in a specific metaphor.

Ning Ying is equivalent to installing a reverse lock handle inside the door lock to ensure that the door can be opened from the inside at any time.
