"You!"
Jin Batian gnashed his teeth at Jin Shikai's back.
Jin Batian thought Jin Shikai was just messing with him and had no intention of standing up for him.
"Even without your Hero Alliance, there's still the Mountains and Rivers Alliance!
The Mountains and Rivers Alliance's alchemy and weapon refining are better than your Hero Alliance's!
I don't believe I can't make a name for myself in the Mountains and Rivers Alliance! "
Jin Batian stormed off to greet the Mountains and Rivers Alliance.
But just like Jin Shikai, Jin Batian was given the cold shoulder at the Mountains and Rivers Alliance.
When he heard the Mountains and Rivers Alliance talk about Li Mo's past three months, Jin Batian's eyes went wide and his legs trembled.
Jin Batian felt powerless before Li Mo.
He went into seclusion for three months, thinking he could get his revenge.
But now it seemed Li Mo's three months made him look up to Jin Batian. How was he supposed to get his revenge?
Li Mo was oblivious to Jin Batian's thoughts.
Li Mo spent these days helping Dongfang Yibai with his research on One World Painting. Tianshan Silk was hard to come by.
That was why none of Dongfang Yibai's envoys returned.
But this didn't stop Li Mo from discussing how to refine One World Painting with Dongfang Yibai, because Li Mo had already refined half of it.
Li Mo had far more experience than Dongfang Yibai, so Dongfang Yibai was the one asking Li Mo for advice.
In the blink of an eye, the deadline of three months had passed.
Li Mo didn't need to report to the Hall of Missions. An envoy came to deliver Li Mo's mission.
Envoys who had just entered the Elders Guild had obtained cultivation techniques and spirit stones.
Of course, he had to do some work for the Elder Council. Thus, the new envoy was forced to complete a mission.
Only the new envoy could go to the Elder Council and accept other missions with rewards.
A Mountains and Rivers Alliance envoy respectfully delivered a storage bag. Li Mo and the Mountains and Rivers Alliance had a lot of grudges.
But since the envoy didn't have the ability to get revenge, he behaved himself.
Li Mo flipped through the Elder Council's storage bag and found a letter, a coarse robe, a human skin mask, and a shabby machete.
In short, ever since Li Mo came to Jiuli Tribe, he had never seen such shabby things.
But that was because Li Mo came to Jiuli Tribe and was their guest in the Fallen Mountain Camp. Later on, he became their acting tribe leader.
That was why Li Mo had always been in a high position, one of the best in the village.
As for the commoners, their living conditions were the same as the ones in Li Mo's storage pouch. They weren't rich.
Of course, this was much better than the lowest level of the Five Poisons Mountain Stronghold.
Li Mo frowned as he read the letter.
So Li Mo was sent to spy on a stronghold.
However, he could not be discovered by the village, so he could only put on the human skin mask and pretend to be a clansman to enter the village to spy on them.
It could be assumed that the elders of the Elders Council did this in order to better control the affairs of each stronghold.
There was no need to guess. The other mountain strongholds, including Sunset Mountain Stronghold, definitely had such people.
That was why he had a conflict with Li Yan when Meng Lin returned to Dusk Mountain Stronghold.
That very night, the elders of the Elders Council went to deliver the elder's decree.
After all, these elders couldn't control the Jiuli Grand Array like Li Renlong. So they could only use this method to manage the strongholds.
"Eagle Mountain Stronghold?"
Li Mo was baffled by the name of the stronghold.
Even after being in Jiuli Tribe for so long, Li Mo still didn't know much about the strongholds.
But fortunately, there was a map on the back of the letter.
So Li Mo turned the letter over and grinned at the route on the map.
"Eagle Mountain Stronghold isn't far from Dusk Mountain Stronghold. I can first deliver the Source Spirit Fruit to Chiyou and Pang Qiu, then go to Eagle Mountain Stronghold."
He didn't need to bid farewell to Longqing and the rest, for they had their own missions.
So Li Mo packed his things and set off, oblivious to everyone else.
For the past three months, Li Mo, who caused such a ruckus among the Elders Council's emissaries, had already left Ling Xiao Peak.
The letter had a clear time for the handover, ordering Li Mo to arrive at a place called Eagle Valley within five days to complete the handover with the previous emissary in Eagle Mountain Stronghold.
So Li Mo didn't waste any time and arrived at Dusk Mountain Stronghold's territory in just three days.
Li Mo's power had increased so much that he didn't use Warp, but his speed was still fast.
"Moo!"
A deep sound came from Li Mo's hunting experience.
The moment he heard this sound, he knew that this was the roar of a water buffalo at the peak of the completion level of the completion level.
"Someone is hunting here?"
Li Mo chuckled and flew in the direction of the sound.
He was deep in Dusk Mountain Stronghold's hinterland.
If there was someone here, then it had to be Dusk Mountain Stronghold's people hunting.
As Li Mo flew in the direction of the sound, he saw a well-built, almost adult youth fighting a peak Core Formation stage water buffalo.
A water buffalo didn't have the sharp claws of other spiritual beasts, but it had a lot of strength.
Spirit beasts were already very strong, let alone the water buffalo, which was one of the best among them.
But Li Mo saw that the youth didn't even try to dodge the water buffalo's attack.
The youth rubbed his powerful palms, his face filled with excitement as he went to grab the water buffalo.
When the water buffalo came close to the young man, it lowered its head and was ready to ram the young man with its horns.
Although these sharp horns were not as sharp as the claws, under such a huge force, they were still able to pierce through.
Normally, a spirit beast at the peak of the Core Formation realm would have two bloody holes in its body.
However, the youth's grasp of timing was very good. Seeing the water buffalo charging towards him, he immediately turned around.
The youth pounced and grabbed the water buffalo's horns with perfect precision.
Against the water buffalo's vast power, the youth only took three steps back and planted his feet in the ground to steady himself.
Then the youth's arms exploded and the water buffalo didn't even have time to struggle before he threw it away.
"Roar!"
A beast's roar reverberated through the forest, as if announcing who was the king of the forest!
A fat figure dropped from the sky, bearing down on the water buffalo with the weight of Mt. Tai.
With a puff, dust filled the air, and the entire water buffalo was pushed into the ground.
The water buffalo's eyes were wide with rage, but it was no longer breathing.
"Fat ball!
Good job! "
The youth on the side shouted in excitement.
This young man and that chubby spirit beast were none other than Chi You and Fat Ball.
At this moment, Chi You and Fat Ball's aura had both reached the late stage of the Core Formation Realm.
But with the two of them working together, they could easily kill a spiritual beast at peak Core Formation Stage.
"Eh!"
Fat ball clapped its hands in excitement.
"Chi You, Fat Ball."
Seeing how the two didn't notice him, Li Mo shouted helplessly.
"Master!"
"…"
Chi You and Fat Ball's eyes shined at the sight of Li Mo.
"You two, when you fight enemies in the future, pay attention to your surroundings.
Pay attention to your surroundings. Otherwise, you won't even know how you were tricked by others. "
Li Mo patted Fat Ball's head as he spoke to Chi You and Fat Ball.
It had been three months and Li Mo was happy to see his two disciples again.
Listening to Li Mo's teachings, man and beast snickered.
Even with their high cultivation, they were still like children before Li Mo.
"Take these two fruits and absorb them when you reach the Golden Core Stage."
Li Mo took out the Source Spirit Fruit from his storage pouch and gave it to Chi You and Fat Ball.
Fat Ball was a divine beast with a strong body.
Chi You had the Ancient God-Demon Body and was no weaker than Fat Ball.
So when they absorbed the Source Spirit Fruit, they wouldn't be like others who couldn't handle the pure spiritual qi and get hurt.
Li Mo didn't give his two disciples much advice.
Chi You didn't know what Li Mo was holding, but Fat Ball had its ancestor's bloodline memories.
Therefore, Fat Ball recognized the Origin Spirit Fruit at a glance. Then, Fat Ball transmitted a few words to Chi You.
The man and beast both knew how precious the Source Spirit Fruit was and how hard it was for Li Mo to get it.
However, neither the man nor the beast had a pretentious personality.
So Chi You and Fat Ball were touched and put the Source Spirit Fruit away.
Chi You and Fat Ball watched their master with unswerving determination.
Their master had done so much for them that they wouldn't be able to grow.
They wouldn't just be letting themselves down, but letting their master down.
"You two brats."
Knowing what Chi You and Fat Ball were thinking, Li Mo couldn't help but curse.
Li Mo found a tree and sat down.
He pointed at Fat Ball.
"Show me a set of punches first."
Li Mo knew Fat Ball would be serious when it came to eating.
But when it came to cultivation, Fat Ball was lazy.
So Li Mo had Fat Ball show him a fist technique.
It had been so long since he saw his master and now he wanted to test him.
Fat Ball put on a long face and performed a set of punches. Looking at Fat Ball's punches,
Li Mo's face was ashen. Why did Fat Ball make such a good fist technique look so cute?
Li Mo held back his anger and tried to persuade himself.
"What Fat Ball needs is the ancestor's bloodline ability, not the fist techniques of other races.
What Fat Ball needs is the ancestor's bloodline ability … "
After repeating it a few times, Li Mo's mood improved a bit.
But even though he knew Fat Ball didn't need it, Li Mo still explained it to Fat Ball.
After all, Fat Ball only had one bloodline ability, Mt. Tai's Suppression.
As the saying goes, skills don't weigh you down. There was no harm in learning a few more.
Next was Chi You. Li Mo watched Chi You go through his fist technique.
Li Mo nodded inwardly, 'Chi You is a future Weapon Lord.'
On the path of cultivation, Chi You was the most hardworking Li Mo had ever seen.
