"Roar!"
Lil 'Red saw things were going south and turned into a dragon soul. Li Mo jumped on its head.
Under Li Mo's guidance, the man and dragon dashed for the exit!
Li Mo knew what it was like to be trapped in a spatial fragment in Sumeru Cave.
Now, he would rather die happily than be trapped again!
Rumble!
The moment Li Mo and Dragon Soul left the palace, it crumbled to the ground!
Crack …
The sky outside darkened as lightning struck Li Mo.
"Roar!"
Dragon Soul roared, but due to its size, it was struck by lightning.
"Lil 'Red, turn back to human or you'll get hurt!"
Li Mo shouted anxiously.
"No!
Master, if I turn back, we won't be able to escape with our speed.
I'm fine, don't worry! "
"Roar …"
Dragon Soul pushed its speed to the limit.
It dragged a long shadow as it rushed out of Crescent Valley's entrance.
Boom!
When Li Mo and Dragon Soul returned to the real world, a huge explosion came from Crescent Valley's entrance.
The shockwave threw Li Mo and the now human Lil 'Red to the ground!
"Lil 'Red!
Are you alright? "
Li Mo struggled to get up. That impact was no less than a full-powered strike from Li Mo.
Li Mo's blood was in turmoil and his organs were badly damaged.
"Master, I'm fine!
But I will need to rest for a few days! "
Lil 'Red was in a much worse state than Li Mo.
His golden-red dress was torn in many places, and his handsome face was covered in blood and dirt!
But at least their lives weren't in danger!
"Phew!
That was too dangerous! "
Li Mo laid on the ground and exhaled.
Looking at the snow-covered mountain, he felt like he was dreaming.
Squeak!
Squeak!
Whitey came out of nowhere and scurried to Li Mo's side. Its big eyes were glued to Li Mo's chest as its nose sniffed at something.
"You little thing, where did you run off to?
Don't you know I almost lost my life? "
Li Mo gave Whitey an annoyed look.
But he was also glad that it didn't go in with him. In such a dangerous place, if it had an accident, he really couldn't explain it to Liu Yan when he went back!
This wasn't the place to linger. Li Mo needed to find a secluded place to examine his injuries.
Recalling Lil 'Red, Li Mo took Whitey on the shuttle boat and left.
Releasing his powerful divine sense, Li Mo found a secluded cave.
"Here it is!"
Li Mo placed an enchantment at the entrance.
He was not worried that someone would come here. After all, this place was desolate and uninhabited.
This was also to prevent wild beasts from appearing and disturbing his recovery!
The cave wasn't deep and Li Mo chose a flat spot to sit cross-legged.
"Little White, why aren't you coming out?"
Li Mo pulled Whitey out of his arms!
"You little thing, you usually stay far away from me.
Why are you in my arms today? "
Creak!
Creak!
Whitey chirped twice, but her eyes never left Li Mo's chest!
His nose was still sniffing around.
"You … What are you doing!
You want to … "
Seeing Whitey's infatuated eyes, Li Mo crossed his arms in a hurry.
"Ha-ha, what are you thinking, master?
You have something it's interested in! "
Even Lil 'Red, who returned to the Dragonscale Scarlet, couldn't stand it anymore and reminded him.
"What do I have that it's interested in?
Don't tell me … it's not dragon saliva, is it? "
Li Mo recalled how Whitey didn't treat him like this before entering Crescent Valley.
But ever since it came out, it stuck to him.
He must have obtained something in the Crescent Valley that had a strong attraction to him.
The first thing he thought of was dragon saliva. It was good for dragon souls, not to mention this little thing!
He took out the jade bottle and waved it in front of Whitey.
Creak!
Creak!
Little White called out twice again, but it did not seem to be interested!
"You don't even care for the dragon saliva?
Could it be the two inner cores? "
Li Mo took out the ape's inner core.
Whitey couldn't sit still. Whoosh!
He immediately rushed over and swallowed the inner core in one gulp!
Then it curled into a ball and started snoring!
"N-no way!"
Li Mo was scared witless by Whitey's actions. Whitey was too fast.
So fast that he didn't even have time to react before it swallowed the inner core!
It wasn't that he felt bad for the ape's inner core, since he still had a qilin's inner core.
But he was worried that Whitey's petite body wouldn't be able to handle the inner core's power.
"Don't worry, master. Don't forget, Whitey is also a beast of antiquity!
I'm sure you'll be pleasantly surprised when he absorbs the inner core! "
Lil 'Red's words echoed in Li Mo's mind.
Li Mo looked at the sleeping Whitey and relaxed. It didn't look like it was in any danger.
After carefully putting it into the Xuanyuan Mirror, he held his breath and concentrated on checking his injuries.
Li Mo jumped in fright at what he saw.
His meridians had been damaged in many ways, and his internal organs had been damaged to varying degrees.
If he wanted to recover on his own, it would probably take a few months!
But Li Mo still had the heaven-defying treasure from the dragon saliva.
Li Mo poured a drop of dragon saliva into his mouth and entered a cultivation state.
Li Mo felt a berserk energy rampaging through his body.
He was completely unable to control this energy, and the intense pain immediately spread throughout his body.
He had no way of controlling it. No one could help him and he could only rely on his own willpower.
Five Elements Vitality Qi operated, combing the berserk energy bit by bit.
It turned it into a gentle spiritual power that flowed through his body.
However, the pain of the entire process was unbearable.
If Li Mo hadn't been thinking about Liu Yan's words before he left, he wouldn't have been able to hold on!
In the dark cave, Li Mo didn't know how much time had passed. When the last strand of berserk energy turned into spiritual power, he sighed.
He stood up and stretched his stiff body. Then, he took off his sweat-soaked clothes and sat down cross-legged.
"Phew!
Now let's see if the dragon saliva is as effective as the legends say. "
Li Mo muttered to himself.
He probed the spiritual power bit by bit on his damaged meridians and organs.
A miraculous thing happened!
Surrounded by the spiritual power of the dragon saliva, the damaged meridians were enveloped in a soft white light, making Li Mo feel very comfortable.
Furthermore, the damaged areas were recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye. His tendons and meridians were much more flexible than before!
And the spiritual power of the dragon saliva didn't just heal, it filled Li Mo's dantian to the brim.
Li Mo was just a step away from enlightenment and he would become a mid-level Martial Emperor!
Seeing this, Li Mo smiled in satisfaction.
With a flash, he appeared in the crimson space. There was no place more suitable than this for cultivation!
In the scarlet space, Li Mo saw Lil 'Red in a cultivation state. But when he saw the empty jade bottle next to Lil' Red, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets.
Just one drop of the dragon saliva was already too much for him. He didn't expect this little girl to drink the whole bottle.
In the end, he could only praise her body's strength.
Li Mo found a place to sit cross-legged and closed his eyes. He began to meditate, searching for a chance to break through!
