Chapter 106: It's Too Big and Not Suited for Shen Mo
The white-robed cultivator's golden core was dug out by Shen Mo, making self-detonation impossible.
He looked down in disbelief and spat out a mouthful of blood before falling forward.
Shen Mo turned to look at Pang Ziyu, smiling, "Now, only you are left."
For some reason, Pang Ziyu felt as if the smile was that of a devil.
All her calculations had been for naught.
Shen Mo wasn't just at the peak of the Foundation Establishment realm; he had already formed a golden core, and it was undoubtedly the strongest—an impeccable golden core.
Moreover, she had long known through her channels that Shen Mo possessed a rare flame.
She only needed to use the Blood Vine Array to trap Shen Mo for a moment, just long enough.
A Golden Core realm cultivator detonating their core would surely seriously injure or even kill Shen Mo.
However, Shen Mo reacted faster than any of them.
The moment the blood vines began to entangle his feet, he unleashed his flame, incinerating the vines completely.
It was as if... as if he had anticipated the blood vines...
Thinking of this, Pang Ziyu glanced angrily at Li Tie, who stood at the entrance, panic-stricken.
Had this person betrayed her and sided with Shen Mo?!
"I would rather die than fall into your hands like Wu Leng!" Pang Ziyu shouted, suddenly drawing a short knife to cut her own throat.
Shen Mo was prepared. With a flick of his finger, a strand of spiritual energy shot out, piercing Pang Ziyu's right hand.
The intense pain made it impossible for her to hold the knife, let alone kill herself.
"Tie her up; don't let her have any chance to commit suicide," Shen Mo ordered.
Elder Li eagerly responded, "Yes!"
She quickly bound Pang Ziyu tightly, even stuffing her mouth with a cloth to prevent her from biting her tongue.
Only then did Shen Mo nod slightly.
Pang Ziyu was of high status and intelligence. Such a person should either be killed swiftly or kept under control.
However, Shen Mo did not plan to kill Pang Ziyu just yet.
At the very least, he wanted to squeeze some benefits out of her first.
Moreover, the overall strength of the Qingxuan Sect was still inferior to the Flying Frost Sect.
Killing Pang Ziyu would be tantamount to declaring war.
With both sides evenly matched, it could lead to a protracted battle, which Shen Mo did not want.
He preferred a decisive victory, a crushing defeat.
"Young Sect Master, what should we do with the two traitors?" Elder Li pointed to Li Tie and another person at the entrance.
After Pang Ziyu was captured, the disciples rushed to seize these two as well.
"Interrogate them, then execute them publicly," Shen Mo commanded with a wave of his hand.
"Understood!"
The chaos in the Armament Hall gradually subsided.
But the excitement among the people made it impossible for them to sleep. They whispered about the recent events.
"What realm is our young sect master at now, to be able to crush those Golden Core realm cultivators!"
"I think the young sect master must have formed his golden core long ago, keeping it hidden as his trump card!"
"But even if the young sect master had formed his golden core earlier, he should still be at the entry level of the Golden Core realm. How could he defeat those long-established Golden Core cultivators?"
"Who knows... but our young sect master is amazing, that's for sure!"
"Hey, the Five Young Supremes of Xujiang haven't even reached the Golden Core realm yet, but our young sect master did it first. When this news gets out, we Qingxuan Sect disciples will be so proud!"
"Indeed, our Qingxuan Sect already meets the standards of a first-rate sect, and now we have a super talent like the young sect master. The future is bright!"
Meanwhile, Shen Mo didn't rest. He immediately left the Armament Hall to intercept an opportunity.
Even before Pang Ziyu was captured, he had already seen her life panel and spotted two upcoming opportunities.
[Recent Opportunity One: Tonight, while capturing Shen Mo and returning to the Flying Frost Sect, they are attacked by a fourth-rank Forest Python. After slaying the python, they find two low-grade Earth-tier medicinal herbs, Wooden Muruong, nearby.]
[Recent Opportunity Two: Ten days later, during a meeting with the Spirit Beast Sect master near Baihe Mountain, they encounter a large Gold-seeking Rat but fail to capture it, only obtaining five top-grade spirit stones.]
Shen Mo, following the path from the Heavy Weapon Hall to the Flying Frost Sect, soon discovered a large green python in the forest—the Forest Python mentioned in the opportunity.
After an intense battle, Shen Mo successfully killed it and found two Wooden Muruong plants nearby, which blended in with the surrounding trees.
Wooden Muruong, a low-grade Earth-tier medicinal herb, is a rare treasure for enhancing golden cores, similar to Dragon Beard. It doesn't require processing into a pill and can be consumed directly for over ninety percent efficacy.
Moreover, Wooden Muruong's potency surpasses that of Dragon Beard.
These two Wooden Muruong plants were roughly equivalent to four Dragon Beards.
After obtaining the Wooden Muruong, Shen Mo headed straight for Baihe Mountain.
Baihe Mountain is near the Spirit Beast Sect but still part of the Qingcang Mountain Range.
Shen Mo quickly arrived at Baihe Mountain.
However, unlike Pang Ziyu, he wouldn't just happen to encounter the Gold-seeking Rat.
According to normal circumstances, the Gold-seeking Rat would only appear ten days later.
So Shen Mo had to find it himself.
Around dawn, he finally found the large Gold-seeking Rat.
Typically, a Gold-seeking Rat is only as long as a human forearm.
But this one reached a human's waist in height and was over three meters long.
Definitely the rat king.
Its speed was also astonishing.
Upon spotting Shen Mo, it was terrified and ran off at full speed.
Usually, Golden Core realm cultivators could only eat its dust.
However, Shen Mo's body technique, Eight Directional Thunderous Movement, a top-tier Mystic-grade skill, was more than sufficient to catch up.
Soon, Shen Mo cornered the large Gold-seeking Rat in a dead end, where it played dead by flipping its belly.
Shen Mo found it both amusing and exasperating. He didn't kill it, instead taking what it had hidden in its thick fur.
To his delight, not only did the large Gold-seeking Rat have over eighty top-grade spirit stones, but it also had half of a pitch-black armguard!
It was a piece of the Demon Armor!
One wonders how the Gold-seeking Rat managed to carry so much weight while running around...
"Go back; I won't kill you," Shen Mo said, waving his hand.
The large Gold-seeking Rat quickly fled, feeling greatly relieved.
Having intercepted these two opportunities, Shen Mo found a quiet place nearby to inspect his finds.
He set the Wooden Muruong aside, as it could be consumed anytime.
The refinement would also take considerable time.
However, the half Demon Armor armguard excited him.
The Demon Armor armguard emitted a dark purple glow, exuding a strange, malevolent aura, yet seemed imbued with overwhelming power.
Its surface, like the previous pieces of the Demon Armor he had obtained, was inscribed with mysterious and intricate patterns.
"I wonder if these two pieces of the Demon Armor can merge with this," Shen Mo thought.
The two pieces of the Demon Armor fragment floated out from his chest at his command.
In the next moment, they were drawn together like magnets.
Finally, they merged seamlessly!
Clang!
A wave of dark purple energy spread out.
The Demon Armor armguard hovered in front of Shen Mo, as if waiting for its master to wear it.
However, it seemed particularly large and did not fit Shen Mo's size.
