Chapter 279 - Zhen Gu
Chapter 279: Zhen Gu
This kind of cultivation had a great harvest. The Ancient True Phoenix’s technique was very mysterious, helping Lin Mo to take many routes in his comprehension.
In just a dozen days, Lin Mo had completely completed his training. The Blood Phoenix Flower and some precious spirit herbs were used by him.
During this period of time, Lin Mo continuously comprehended the Qilin steps, the Kun Peng Wings, and the Cloud Piercing Four Spirits. Very quickly, he became familiar with them and understood most of their power.
However, if he wanted to completely control them, he still needed to pay a very great price.
He would have to invest a lot of time, experience, and endless resources.
At the same time, Lin Mo’s realm had also received a huge increase.
However, his strength had only increased to tier 20 of the Dragon Transformation Realm.
This made him sigh with emotion. The consumption of resources by the God Devouring Body was becoming more and more terrifying.
Spirit-grade resources were things that even Nirvana realm powerhouses coveted.
Now, he had used the incomplete technique of the Ancient True Phoenix to refine the Blood Phoenix Flower, and it had only helped him raise his strength by two ranks.
“This won’t do, I still have to find more resources...”
Lin Mo frowned, the consumption was getting greater and greater. It seemed that he could not just sell spirit stones, he still had to exchange some precious treasures with others.
Especially something like the Blood Phoenix Flower, the more the better.
Standing up, Lin Die was still in the state of cultivation. Lin Mo did not disturb her and left some cultivation resources behind before leaving the small courtyard.
Just as he walked out, he saw Duanmu Jia walking over with a red invitation card in his hand. He looked a little flustered.
“What’s Wrong?” Lin Mo was stunned and hurriedly asked.
“Master, the fourth prince has come to ancient flame city. He’s holding a trade fair in the city Lord’s mansion, inviting all kinds of talents to go.” Duanmu Jia said anxiously.
The fourth prince himself had come in person, and the trade fair had already begun the day before yesterday.
She had come several times during this period, but every time, Lin Mo was in closed-door cultivation.
“The fourth prince has come?”
Lin Mo was shocked. Because the Sima clan was rather unlucky, the clan head had died in the Ancient Flame Ruins.
Thus, the current Ancient Flame City could be said to be the Su clan and Mu clan’s stronghold.
The crown prince had obviously given up on Gu Yan City and let the Sima family retreat.
Under normal circumstances, it was only a matter of time before the Mu family was suppressed by Lin Mo.
However, things were different now. The fourth prince had personally come, and it was causing a huge commotion. Even the people from the neighboring cities knew about it.
Gu Yan city was extremely lively. The streets in the city were sprawling, and every single one of them was filled with people.
Lin Mo walked alone on the streets. He wore a bamboo hat hesitantly, but no one recognized him.
On the streets, there were demonic beasts running about from time to time. There were some people riding on them, and their auras were extraordinary.
These people all had the same goal, which was the central area of Ancient Flame City, the city lord’s residence.
The pedestrians on the streets were not surprised by this. They had already seen too much in the past few days.
All sorts of talented individuals had come. There had even been quite a bit of fighting because some people who were opposing each other had also come.
Of course, this was still Ancient Flame City after all. With the two great clans placed there, not many people dared to be impudent.
Lin Mo’s goal was the same as these people. It was the city lord’s residence.
It was obvious what the fourth prince’s motive was behind holding the trade fair in the city lord’s residence.
Right now, Gu Yan City’s reputation was growing day by day.
When he first came, he was not that great. Although he had held a few decent auctions.
His reputation wasn’t that great. His survival still depended on the Su family.
Now, it was different. Luo Haoyu came to help him guard the place, and all the experts did not dare to attack him.
This was also the reason why outsiders knew that he had a treasure, but they did not dare to attack him.
“Is this the city lord’s residence? It’s really grand.”
An hour later, Lin Mo walked to the gate of the city lord’s residence and took off his bamboo hat. There were many demonic beasts stationed outside the city lord’s residence.
These were the mounts of those experts. Just from their auras, one could tell how powerful they were.
“I am Lin Mo.”
Lin Mo walked forward and handed the red invitation card to the person in charge of receiving them at the gate.
Taking off his bamboo hat, exclamations immediately rang out from the surroundings. Lin Mo’s fame had been spreading ever since the Ancient Flame Ruins opened.
“So he’s Lin Mo. .”
“His realm has risen again. I can feel that he’s stronger than the last time he came to the auction.”
“No wonder he’s late. He must have just come out of seclusion.”
“Welcome, Young Master Lin Mo. The fourth prince has been waiting for you for a long time.” The person in charge of the entrance confirmed Lin Mo’s identity and hurriedly let him in.
However, although Lin Mo was stunning, many people did not think too much about it. There were many people who were stronger than him.
“Hehe, brother Lin, long time no see.” Just as Lin Mo walked in, a person walked towards him.
That person was very powerful. He emitted a special aura and was very mysterious.
“Uh... Who are you?” Lin Mo was stunned. Did he know this guy?
Although this guy was very strong, Lin Mo thought about it carefully and found that he was not on the ranking list of Yan and Huang dynasties.
However, in terms of ranking, this guy could be ranked in the top ten.
“Hehe, I’m Zhen Gu, the fifth prince of Great Yan Divine Empire. I’ve seen brother Lin at the auction house,” said the man with a smile.
“So it’s you...” Lin Mo nodded. Among the four great divine empires in the eastern continent, Great YanDivine Empire was one of the few that maintained a neutral position.
This was also the reason why countless business groups in the Eastern Continent wanted to enter Great Yan Dynastyt.
“Brother Lin, I’ve found some supreme treasures in front of us, and I’m a little hesitant. I wonder if you could give me some advice?”Zhen Gu invited.
At the same time, he also expressed that although Great Yan dynasty and Yanhuang dynasty were not friends, they were not enemies either.
In addition, they had always been neutral, and had never offended anyone. As long as they were close to him, they would not cause any trouble.
“Alright, I’m very interested.” Lin Mo was originally here to search for treasures, and now was the perfect time to head over.
“Stop, there’s no place for you here, Lin Mo.” An angry voice sounded out as a group of people walked over in an imposing manner.
Lin Mo raised his head and discovered that these people were dressed in the attire of the disciples of the Yuan Yang Holy Land. However, they were older and looked to be in their forties or fifties.
Apart from them, the Holy Maiden of the Cang Xuan Holy Land, Han Yue, was also present. She stared at Lin Mo with killing intent surging in her eyes.
“What? Could it be that you want to stir up trouble here?” Lin Mo laughed. If it was possible, he would also want to make a move.
“Although I can’t kill you, I can still teach you a lesson,” Han Yue said coldly.
She looked behind her and saw an elder walking over.
“Elder Zhao, he has a puppet. Remember to use the yin-suppressing talisman.”
The yin-suppressing talisman was a type of talisman that was specially used to restrain puppets. Once it was used, the puppet would lose its effect in a short period of time.
It was more targeted, but its effect was also relatively simple. She did not expect that these people would actually find it to deal with her.
“Everyone, this place is organized by your Divine Empire’s fourth prince. It’s not appropriate to make a move, right?” Zhen Gu said, wanting to persuade them.
