Luo Lingling pursed her lips and suddenly looked somewhat guilty, saying, "Old Mo, I’m sorry, but I didn’t manage to get the Soul Breath Immortal Grass; an old woman at the Divinity Transformation Realm snatched it away from me. I was just a bit short."
"As long as you’re safe, that’s what matters. Actually, I’ve already taken the Soul Breath Immortal Grass, and my soul power has completely recovered!" Mo Xingjian hurriedly said.
Luo Lingling was initially stunned, but she quickly stepped forward and placed her hand on Mo Xingjian’s head to begin probing.
Mo Xingjian did not evade, merely looking lovingly at the young lady just inches away.
After a long while, Luo Lingling released her hand and exclaimed in amazement, "It really has recovered! Where did you get the Soul Breath Immortal Grass?"
Mo Xingjian smiled slightly and said, "That’s a long story; thanks to Third and Fourth Brother. During that time, Fourth Brother was preparing for the Nascent Soul Formation Pill..."
As Mo Xingjian gradually explained, Luo Lingling finally understood the sequence of events.
"These two silly kids..." After hearing the story, Luo Lingling couldn’t help but be moved by her two younger brothers’ actions.
"Beating you up was definitely not unfair. Poor Xiao Qing had to endure the pain of having his golden core extracted. Though he recovered, his personal secrets were exposed, making it difficult for him to face others in the future."
Luo Lingling said worriedly.
Mo Xingjian quickly said, "You don’t have to worry about that. When the time comes, I’ll take him away for a while and claim that we found a fortuitous place, possibly a legacy from a mysterious fifth-level Cultivation Country, where we helped him rebuild his golden core. That way, no one will ask too many questions."
Luo Lingling nodded, although she felt this plan was somewhat far-fetched, it was the only option for now.
Soon, she seemed to remember something and asked urgently, "Then what’s the matter with the Yin Yang Qi on his body?"
"Ah, that’s what I wanted to tell you. Do you remember the story I told you when you were young? The annoying second uncle, he was hiding in the Pocket World of our Taiqing Sect..."
Luo Lingling had never expected that so many interesting things had happened during her four-year absence.
Speaking of that Pocket World, she had entered it during her Foundation Establishment phase, thanks to Mo Xingjian. Unexpectedly, it had now started to spawn wandering souls.
A place full of opportunities has unexpectedly turned into a place everyone avoids.
This change must be due to whatever that senior uncle did inside.
From what she knew, even the Supreme Elders could only stay in there for a day, yet he was trapped for so many years, which was quite a feat.
"By the way, I met Senior Brother. Within five years, he should be able to step into the Divinity Transformation!" Soon, Luo Lingling seemed to remember something and told Mo Xingjian.
Mo Xingjian was delighted; no wonder he was his first disciple. It seems that the first of the young generation in Taiqing Sect to reach Divinity Transformation would be someone from his Little Spirit Peak.
However, soon Mo Xingjian’s face was filled with worry again.
Regarding the realm of the Ghost Mastiff, he probably already guessed it, with that kind of unstoppable momentum and determination.
Nothing should be done half-heartedly; once he loses his resolve, the realm will backfire and severely affect his state of mind.
This forces him to keep pushing forward, breaking through every obstacle and building bridges across every water. This realm might elevate him, but simultaneously, it could also drag him into an abyss.
Everything will depend on his fortune!
Just as Mo Xingjian was about to inquire about Xuanyuan Crane’s situation, he suddenly felt something and quickly took out his identity token.
It was a message from Zhou Qing.
[Master, I feel like I’m about to break through to the Nascent Soul Realm!]
Seeing this message, Mo Xingjian was momentarily stunned, unable to react.
Wait, weren’t you just at the late-stage of the Golden Core Realm three months ago when you went into seclusion? I thought you might reach Great Perfection, but now you’re suddenly about to ascend to the Nascent Soul Realm?
However, Mo Xingjian soon shifted from astonishment to joy.
A breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm, could it be the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown ranked first among the Heavenly Nascent Souls?
If Zhou Qing truly achieves this realm, then the future emergence of a Spirit Severing Realm expert in Taiqing Sect is practically guaranteed.
Soon, Mo Xingjian suddenly realized something, and his face, previously filled with joy, was replaced by intense worry.
Ever since discovering that Zhou Qing possessed Yin Yang Qi, Mo Xingjian had been diligently researching related information.
A month ago, he indeed found a crucial piece of information in an ancient text; achieving the Three Flowers Gathering at the Crown would trigger a phenomenon in the natural world.
This world-wide phenomenon varies in magnitude, affecting anywhere from tens of miles to hundreds of miles.
Such a grand scale would undoubtedly attract others’ covetous gazes and covert surveillance.
If it happens within Taiqing Sect, the neighboring four sects might launch a raid to eliminate the potential future Spirit Severing Realm expert to prevent endless troubles.
Even the Cyan Feather Immortal Sect might do the same. After all, that immense sect is not solely under the command of Immortal Xuan You.
Thus, he had been preparing all along, but Zhou Qing’s rapid breakthrough caught him off guard, completely disrupting his plans.
"What’s wrong?" Seeing Mo Xingjian’s grim face, Luo Lingling hurriedly asked with concern.
