It was almost the same as what Shen Mo expected.
This so-called Master Xuanzhi is indeed a demonic cultivator.
As early as twenty years ago, he had been secretly connected with the Blood-clothed Sect of the Mortal Demon Cult.
Using magical pills as bait, he secretly cultivated members of the Blood Clothes Sect to collect blood sacrifices for him and kill mortals.
But as the Blood Clothes Sect grew stronger, its actions became increasingly intolerable to the martial arts community in Tianyou City.
Finally, five years ago, the Shen family gathered many righteous forces to attack the Blood Clothes Sect and destroy it.
Master Xuanzhi only got the news after the Bloody Clothes Sect was destroyed for several days.
For him, he has tasted the sweetness of collecting blood food from mortals with prosthetic hands, and naturally he will not give up just now.
So, he rushed to the former site of the Bloody Clothes Gate and met the siblings Gu Ming and Gu Chao.
He chose to strongly support the two of them to revive the Blood Clothes Sect and continue to make blood sacrifices to refine the soul banner for him.
"The Master has great supernatural powers, and it is precisely because of his support that I have achieved this rapid advancement in martial arts."
Gu Ming sighed and said: "He also promised that as long as the soul refining flag can be successfully sacrificed for him, he will accept me as his personal disciple, teach me the immortal method, and lead me on the road to immortality."
"I will teach you immortal magic and accept you as my disciple?"
A sneer appeared on Shen Mo's face and he said: "Your skeletal body has long been eroded by his evil skills. It's hard to say how many more years you can live. Are you still thinking about cultivating immortality?"
He could see that even though Gu Ming was extremely powerful in martial arts, he was only as good as gold and was weak at the same time.
Most of the techniques that that person taught him were evil techniques that would destroy his lifespan and consume his original energy.
Otherwise, his cultivation level would not have improved so quickly.
This is not only the case for him, but also for Gu Chao and others.
Master Xuanzhi would only use them as tools to train them, and how could he teach them sincerely?
"It's not over yet."
Shen Mo rubbed his frown and sighed in his heart.
Originally, the Blood Clothes Sect was destroyed, and the leader was captured by him and his cultivation was destroyed. The matter should be settled here.
But unexpectedly, an evil cultivator was involved behind this.
If he wanted to return to his clan with peace of mind, he had to finish the matter and not leave anything behind.
"Then Master Xuanzhi, what is your strength?"
"Better than the Immortal Master."
"How much stronger?"
"I heard the Master once said that his cultivation has advanced to the second level of Qi Gathering Realm."
Gu Ming said seriously.
He had dared to fight with Shen Mo before, and it was precisely because he did not feel the aura of the Qi Gathering Realm on him that he had such courage.
However, he did not expect that although Shen Mo was still perfecting his body, he had many trump cards and his combat power was not inferior to those who had just entered the Qi Gathering Realm.
Despite this, Gu Ming estimated that the combat power of this immortal master should still be inferior to that of Master Xuanzhi.
"Is it the second level of Qi Gathering Realm?"
Shen Mo murmured, not surprised at all.
If there is really an evil cultivator with great abilities, his name is usually high on the black list and he is hunted down all year round.
There is no need to be so secretive.
"According to the rules of the world of cultivators, if you encounter clues about evil cultivators, you can report them to the sect."
"but......."
He pondered for a moment and hesitated.
At this moment, Shen Mo had two choices.
The first one is to return to the sect and report the complete story about Master Xuanzhi to the sect monks at the elder level and above.
The advantage of this is that he doesn't need to deal with subsequent matters.
There are monks from the sect who will receive orders to kill this beast.
But the problem with doing this is that I don’t know how long it will take to do it again and again.
Moreover, when the monks from Linjiang Sect came, they only wanted to kill evil cultivators and did not care about the safety of the Shen family at all.
If the Shen family encounters revenge during this period, it will be a disaster for the family.
more importantly.........
Shen Mo caressed the soul refining flag with his palm, feeling quite reluctant to part with it.
"Although this soul refining flag is a blood sacrifice evil object, its power is not small."
If the sect is informed of the matter, it means that the soul refining flags involved in the matter must also be handed over.
And he had some thoughts of keeping this trophy.
"It's better to handle it yourself!"
After thinking for a moment, Shen Mo made up his mind.
"Although his strength is not bad at the second level of the Qi Gathering Realm, if I can successfully break through, it should not be difficult to kill him!"
He decided to stay in Tianyou City for one more day and immediately swallowed the Purple Sun Fruit to try to break through.
If the breakthrough goes smoothly, Gu Ming will be ordered to lure out the evil cultivator behind the scenes and kill them to eliminate future troubles.
.........
After the interrogation, Shen Mo went down to Lingfeng Tower.
Several waves of knights and knights came to the Shen family, all wanting to visit Shen Mo.
The previous incident of the Blood Clothes Sect killing King Ming quickly caused a sensation in the entire Tianyou City. Many people came here to take a look at this legendary immortal master.
For these people, Shen Mo asked Shen Zhiyun to drive them out and disappear.
"Although the Blood Clothes Sect has been solved,... there are evil cultivators behind it."
Shen Mo informed Shen Zhiyun about the information about Master Xuanzhi.
After he learned this, his expression changed slightly: "Then... my Shen family will not suffer revenge from evil cultivators in the future!"
"It doesn't matter. Since I am a cultivator, I will handle it myself."
Shen Mo shook his head and said, "I will stay at the Shen family for one more day to resolve this matter before leaving."
"Choose a quiet room for me and don't let other people disturb me."
"Yes." Shen Zhiyun nodded repeatedly.
At night, in the Shen family's guest room.
Shen Mo was running the "Tian Yuan Gong", constantly absorbing the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth.
He is adjusting.
It's about to break!
This time, to attack the Qi Gathering Realm, he needed to adjust his state to its peak, so that he could have the greatest probability of success.
"call!"
He turned his palm over, and the purple sun vermilion fruit covered with thunder patterns appeared in his hand.
"Finally...it's time to start gathering energy!"
Putting the Ziyang Zhuguo in front of him, Shen Mo took out a large amount of Yang Yang Powder and Xiao Pei Yuan Dan from the Qiankun Bag.
After preparing all this, he started to take action.
"Gulu!"
First, Shen Mo swallowed the Purple Sunflower Fruit into his stomach, and soon, Shen Mo felt that the fruit juice in his body quickly turned into a powerful medicinal power.
This medicine was extremely powerful, squeezing his internal organs and causing pain in his chakras.
[You took the Ziyang Zhuguo, and the majestic power of the medicine exploded in your body. The power of the medicine that kept coming out was a bit unbearable for you. 】
"Swallow it!"
Feeling the powerful medicinal power coming in waves, he did not dare to neglect and quickly activated the "Tian Yuan Gong" to the extreme!
[You run the "Tian Yuan Gong", gradually absorb the power of the medicine, and refine it into the qi, blood and vitality in your body. After your refining, your physical strength has improved. 】
[In the process of running "Tian Yuan Gong", you accidentally gained a little destiny. 】
........
[Through your unremitting efforts, the medicinal power in your body has finally been partially refined, and your strength at this moment has approached the limit of the body-building realm. 】
The "Tian Yuan Gong" that has entered the stage of integration and mastery has a strong devouring power.
Even though the Ziyang Zhuguo's medicinal power is extremely powerful, it is still quickly refined into spiritual power and blood in the body.
As the medicine's power continued to be absorbed and accumulated, Shen Mo's body expanded more and more, even making him larger in size.
But he did not rush to attack the Qi Gathering Realm.
Because he knew that to open multiple Dantians, a huge amount of energy, blood and spiritual power would be consumed.
His current accumulation seems to be abundant, but it will be consumed very quickly when it comes to breaking through.
"Well!"
About half a quarter of an hour later, Shen Mo continued to refine the medicinal power of the Zi Yang Zhu Fruit, and finally... he felt the critical point.
As if a pressure cooker was about to explode, he started.
"Breakthrough!"
The moment he murmured to himself, the power of Qi and blood in his body surged towards the Qi Sea.
The terrifying power of Qi and blood is like the Yellow River bursting its banks, out of control, knocking on the tightly locked Qihai entrance.
As long as the door of the entrance is opened, it means condensing the Dantian and entering the Qi gathering realm.
"Wow!"
Under the crushing force of Shen Mo's terrifying energy and blood, this entrance was almost destroyed.
The moment the entrance door opened, Shen Mo looked inside and discovered that a small cyclone was slowly condensing above the sea of air.
The cyclone continued to pull and erupted with strong suction, absorbing all the spiritual energy that was constantly flowing in his body.
[You successfully broke through and opened the entrance to your upper dantian. The dantian in your body condensed, and your power skyrocketed. 】
"This is the upper Dantian..."
Seeing this scene, Shen Mo felt happy.
The opening of Dantian means that the breakthrough is successful.
But he didn't give up. He had been preparing for a long time, and he would not be satisfied with a mediocre foundation.
