Ever since he became a mid general, Li Mo hadn't been cultivating.
Now that he had the time, Li Mo didn't waste it and entered the scarlet space.
"Ah!
Master, it's been a long time since you last came. You didn't even let me walk around. I'm bored to death! "
Lil 'Red grumbled at Li Mo.
"Lil 'Red, as a spirit, it's best you don't leave the scarlet sword. The outside world is dangerous. Outsiders are invading the continent.
Many hidden experts have appeared. If they find you, even I won't be able to protect you! "
Li Mo's worry wasn't without reason. The highest level cultivator he ever met was his own master. But now there was a Martial Emperor, Xuanyuan Wudi, by his side. There were bound to be many more hidden experts like him. If Lil 'Red were to be found, it would lead to a bloodbath.
"Then won't master have to stay in the scarlet sword forever?"
"Our most important task now is to improve our strength. When I have the strength to contend against the various powerhouses, it will also be the day for you to shine!"
"Humph!
Who knows how long I'll have to wait. "
Lil 'Red pouted, looking very lovable!
"Heavens!
If I let her out, she'll be a temptress who can bring disaster to a nation. "
Li Mo shook his head and settled his mind to cultivate.
He ignored the sulking Lil 'Red!
…
Under Xuanyuan Wudi's tutelage, Bai Xiao and Liu Yan made great strides in a few short days, entering the ranks of martial artists. Bai Xiao's King Yi Bow displayed the power of a high ranked martial art. Paired with the Purple Cloud Bow, it became even more powerful.
The Seed of Life's long-range attack was a nightmare for any opponent.
Liu Yan's Eight Stage Drop also showed its edge.
Attacking the opponent at close range, using his nimble figure and skillful strength to take the opponent by surprise and subdue him!
Li Mo was always cultivating, while Yang Shuo, Zhang Long, and Zhang Hu became Liu Yan's sparring partners.
Suppressing their strength to Liu Yan's level made the three miserable, with bruises and faces swollen almost every day.
When Li Mo finally awoke from his cultivation, he rushed to complain.
"Little Mo!
If it goes on like this, I'm afraid the lives of us three brothers will be in the hands of Liu Yan.
Do you think you can put in a good word for us to Liu Yan and let us go?
Aren't there still many Martial Warriors in the mansion? "
"Big Brother Yang, it's not right for you to say that. What's wrong with a beautiful woman using you for practice? Others might want to, but I don't agree!"
Li Mo found it funny to see Yang Shuo's face covered in bruises.
"I say, Brother Little Mo, since you don't agree to the exchange, then the three of us have nothing else to say. How about this, you give each of us a magical treasure as compensation!"
Yang Shuo's wronged expression turned crafty as he smirked at Li Mo.
Coupled with the injuries on his face, it was even more comical.
"Damn, Big Brother Yang, you're getting more and more unkind. However, seeing how you three have worked so hard for me, I'll remember this. Once I have a suitable magic treasure, I'll think of you guys first!"
Yang Shuo and the other two were overjoyed at Li Mo's words.
Anything that caught Li Mo's eye was of the highest quality. And he was a man of his word, never stingy with his brothers.
With this promise, Yang Shuo and the other two could already see the highest quality magic treasure waving at them!
"Kid, you better remember what you said today. Otherwise, the three of us won't let you off!
Let's go, brothers. We still have to accompany Liu Yan to cultivate in the afternoon! "
Yang Shuo waved his hand and left Li Mo's courtyard with Zhang Long and Zhang Hu. But his mood was completely different from when he came!
After all, the few falls were only flesh wounds.
Compared to a supreme magic treasure, it was nothing!
"Brothers, wait for me!"
Li Mo followed, missing Liu Yan for a few days and missing her dearly.
…
Thump!
With a muffled sound, Yang Shuo's sturdy body was thrown by Liu Yan again.
The corner of Li Mo's eye twitched.
"Yang Shuo, oh Yang Shuo, do you want to throw away your lives for magic treasures?"
"Li Mo, what do you think of my martial arts? Thanks to brother Yang and the others being my sparring partners these days, I'm already very skilled in it!
Since you're here, let brother Yang and the others rest! "
Liu Yan smiled as she walked next to Li Mo.
Li Mo knew what this girl was up to.
"T-well, I still have something to do. I think brother Yang and the others will continue to be my sparring partners.
Yan 'er, you have to be careful. Don't hold back or brother Yang will be angry! "
With that, Li Mo fled, leaving Liu Yan chuckling.
"Li Mo, you unfaithful bastard!
I want two magic treasures, no!
Three … "
Huff!
Li Mo went to a corner of the courtyard and sighed. Recalling Liu Yan's moves, he still felt his heart skip a beat. He regretted letting Liu Yan become Xuanyuan Wudi's disciple.
If the two got into a fight, wouldn't he be smashed into a meat patty?
"Sigh!
Brother Yang, be at ease as Liu Yan's sparring partner. I can only pray for you in silence! "
Li Mo bowed in Liuyan's direction.
"Li Mo!
Come to my courtyard! "
While Li Mo was still praying for the three, Xuanyuan Wudi's voice popped in his mind.
"F * ck!
What cultivation method is this?
Is it a thousand li sound transmission? "
Li Mo was startled, but followed Xuanyuan Wudi's instructions to his courtyard.
"Senior, were you looking for me?"
"Nonsense. Why would I call you if I wasn't looking for you?
Take a look at this cultivation method. It will be of some use to you when you travel the world! "
He threw a tattered book to Li Mo.
"Devouring Void."
Li Mo's eyes shone at the name of this martial art.
He didn't know what it was, but since it was from Xuanyuan Wudi, it couldn't be any weaker!
"Kid, Devouring Void isn't an offensive or defensive martial art. It's a cultivation method to hide one's aura and power.
As long as one isn't two stages above you, they won't be able to see your true power!
Even spiritual sense won't be able to find you! "
"Two stages?
That means if I learn this cultivation method, as long as the opponent isn't a Martial Emperor, they won't be able to see my true power? "
Xuanyuan Wudi nodded.
"Thank you, senior!"
Li Mo just happened to be lacking this cultivation method. He had another way to save his life.
His figure flickered and he disappeared from the courtyard.
"Damn brat, you're in such a hurry!"
Xuanyuan Wudi muttered angrily, but there was still a look of appreciation in his eyes.
Back in his room, Li Mo entered the scarlet space in a hurry.
Ignoring Little Red's incessant grumbling beside him, he sat cross-legged and laid the Soul Devourer flat on his legs.
Removing all distracting thoughts, strings of characters flooded his mind!
