"Anti-Dragon Curse..."
Shen Mo's spiritual consciousness scanned the jade slips and discovered that senior Xiang Shengtian had given him a title corresponding to the "Dragon Transformation Curse" for the cultivation method he created.
I tried practicing [Martial Arts], just like the Dragon Transformation Curse, but still couldn't get started.
Seeing this, he no longer wasted energy and directly put it together with the paper book recording the "Dragon Transformation Curse".
Maybe it will come in handy in the future.
"No wonder I have tried many methods, but I can't break the restrictions of the Xuanqing Jade Slip!"
"It turns out that this jade slip still contains the remnant soul of Senior Xiang. We are looking for a monk who also practiced the "Dragon Transformation Curse" to inherit his legacy."
"You are able to obtain this inheritance, which can be considered... a blessing among misfortunes!"
Shen Mo said lightly.
He didn't care too much about losing the Xuanqing Jade Slip.
After all, he was not the person chosen by Senior Xiang Shengtian. Without practicing the "Dragon Transformation Curse", no matter how sophisticated his methods were, he would not be able to obtain its inheritance.
It’s magical to say the least!
This senior Xiang died a thousand years ago. After the jade slip of his inheritance disappeared, he appeared in the secret realm of Yaochi for unknown reasons.
He was dug out from the ground by the Lingzang Rat and fell into the hands of Shen Mo.
However, his old friend Cao Ren obtained and practiced the "Dragon Transformation Curse" a year ago and became a victim of the dragon pond.
Finally, today, Xiang Shengtian's remnant soul accepted Cao Ren as his direct disciple after a thousand years!
If Shen Mo had never entered the Yaochi realm, or if the hidden rat had not dug out the jade slips, or if he had not even asked about Cao Ren's "chance"... the previous scene would never have happened!
All I can say is that this fateful meeting is wonderful.
In addition to his kind words and encouragement, Shen Mo did not promise Cao Ren to help him tide over the difficulties when the "Huanlong Pond" came decades later.
He thought to himself that by that time, he would already be a towering figure in Taoism.
But after all, we still don’t know how high the level of the immortal giant who respected dragons as food was.
If he had been able to compete with him at that time, Shen Mo would not have watched helplessly as Cao Ren was captured by the "Huan Long Pond" or died tragically by the pond like his master Xiang Shengtian!
However, if this unknown person exists and is incredibly powerful, Shen Mo can only watch!
The best thing to do is to wait until he is morally upright before going to seek justice for Cao Ren.
Therefore, instead of making random promises, it is better to help Cao Ren and improve his strength as soon as possible.
Fortunately, when "Huanlongchi" came to capture him, he could escape one after another like his master Xiang Shengtian and buy more time!
"Actually, when I think about it, I have nothing to complain about!" Cao Ren suddenly laughed.
"If I hadn't received the "Dragon Transformation Curse" and the Master's legacy, with my qualifications, I would have reached the middle stage of Qi Gathering even if I died."
"Then, either go down the mountain and start a cultivating family, or serve as a sect's deacon!"
"No matter what, I can only live mediocrely for another 1,780 years, wasting my time."
"But now, by practicing the "Dragon Transformation Curse", my soul can enter the Qingming Spiritual Realm, and I have gained part of Master's original power... Not to mention the Yuandan realm, it should not be difficult to open up the spiritual sea."
"I'm not at a disadvantage if I can live a glorious life like you for decades!"
Seeing that his friend who used to guard the mountain gate was rising in strength and status, although Cao Ren never said it, he could not help but be envious and jealous in his heart.
Especially his father Cao Shanyue, who always compared Shen Mo with him...
He can maintain his true feelings and not regard Shen Mo as his enemy, which can be regarded as a peaceful state of mind.
The "Dragon Transformation Curse" and Xiang Shengtian's inheritance gave him a chance to walk side by side with Shen Mo again!
"I can't tell, you still have some ambitions."
Shen Mo smiled and cursed, feeling quite pleased that Cao Ren could have such an attitude.
The two discussed again on the coral island how to clean up the mess outside; Cao Shanyue, who had fallen into a coma, faintly woke up after Shen Mo fed him a soul-nourishing pill.
Immediately, Shen Mo called out: "Mingyu, please take back your magical power and let me out."
"Okay, brother."
Mingyu, the clam girl, looked on in confusion and didn't know the whole situation, but she still obeyed.
As the clamshell sky covering all directions slowly shrank and opened... Shen Mo and others suddenly appeared on the ground outside the cave.
None of the inner disciples and deacons who had asked Cao Ren about the spell had left.
Seeing their sudden appearance, they immediately surrounded them and began to quote their respective prices, hoping to exchange for the magical spell.
"Brothers and sisters, I'm so sorry!"
"I had a demon in my heart just now, so I started talking nonsense, trying to defraud you of your spiritual stones, magic weapons and other cultivation resources."
"Fortunately, Shen Core discovered something was wrong with me in time and helped me suppress my inner demons. This prevented my evil deeds from succeeding and prevented me from being punished by the sect's rules."
"Please forgive me..."
As he spoke, Cao Ren bent down and bowed to them to apologize.
"I'm just telling you, who would yell about it when they get a great opportunity? Not even their own parents would say it."
"It turns out that Junior Brother Cao has inner demons. I can't blame you... After all, as practitioners, we can breed demonic thoughts if we are not careful. Fortunately, Senior Brother Shen took action and calmed down the disaster."
"Junior Brother Cao, have you been extremely tight on money recently, and yet you still don't forget to collect money when the inner demons have entered your body?"
"Oh, what a pity! I've even prepared the spirit stones."
One kind of guest at the banquet spoke one after another.
Because no one actually handed over the resources for cultivating immortals to Cao Ren, the matter passed away while talking and laughing.
Of course, this was also for Shen Mo's sake.
Otherwise, the disciples who were fooled by Cao Ren's previous actions would definitely not give up if they didn't give Cao Ren a hard lesson.
Shen Mo also put on the air of being the third core member at the right time, admonished and encouraged them!
It wasn't until midnight that everyone dispersed one by one.
Cao Ren and Cao Shanyue, father and son, after greeting Shen Mo, also wielded magic weapons and flew towards their respective caves.
Not long after, only Shen Mo, Zhao Lingyin, and Chen Mengze's father and daughter were left outside Shen Mo's cave.
Chen An squinted his hazy drunken eyes, smiled at Shen Mo, and then stepped on the flying sword and left alone, directly leaving his precious daughter here.
"The Guarding Department branch has a lot of trivial matters... I have to go back too." Chen Mengze said calmly.
Just when Shen Mo was about to tell her to be careful on the road, Zhao Lingyin spoke first.
"Sister Mengze, the demonic trouble in Wolf Howling Ridge has been eliminated. Even if you want to go back, there is no rush."
"It's rare that we meet you, why don't we have a few more drinks...?"
As she said that, she smiled and took out the higher-quality spirit brew from the Qiankun bag, which was a specialty of the Immortal Burial Sea that Shen Mo brought back from the Mingcang Demon King's Palace.
Chen Mengze's eyes flashed with ripples, and he glanced at Shen Mo quickly, then nodded and sat back at the table.
