When Chu Wushuang heard this familiar voice, her heart suddenly shook, like a frightened little white rabbit, she quickly retracted her hand with a look of panic on her face.
At the same time, a palm made of purple aura quickly grabbed Chen Mo's body from the sky. Judging from his posture, it seemed that there was no unnecessary nonsense and he wanted to capture him hard first.
Chen Mo also knew who this person was. He couldn't resist, so he had to move the condensed light and color according to his heart. The silver light shone for a moment, and the palm prints in the void immediately collided with it.
Boom!
The outline of the palm print suddenly became blurry, but within a few breaths, it still shattered the shield.
At this time, Chen Mo activated the protection of the breastplate again, and a rippling mist emerged, once again blocking the coming crisis. When the spiritual power came, the power of the palm print was gone.
Chen Mo's body was blown away and rolled up beside the lake under the waterfall. He quickly stood up and looked up at the old woman who was arriving in the blink of an eye.
He just suffered some superficial injuries, which had a lot to do with Chu Wushuang being around. She was afraid of accidental injuries, otherwise Chen Mo would not be much better even if he didn't die when Chen Mo took the angry blow in the later stage of foundation building.
Even so, Lin Yuling was surprised by Chen Mo's performance.
"Master, he is Chen Mo!" Chu Wushuang shouted anxiously. She could not run over to check Chen Mo's injuries. Likewise, she did not dare to approach the frightened and angry Lin Yuling.
"Chen Mo?!"
Lin Yuling originally looked hostile, but after hearing this, she suddenly looked startled, but she was a little stunned.
"That child...didn't he die in Luofeng Valley?"
She frowned slightly and looked at Chen Mo carefully. Except that his body shape was much thinner than more than ten years ago, his facial features and temperament had not changed much.
"Is it possible..." A flame of hope seemed to rise in Lin Yuling's heart, but she was hesitant to confirm it. After all, the monk in front of her was truly in the foundation building stage!
What kind of situation can enable an unknown casual cultivator to successfully build a foundation in such a short period of time?
"...Are you really Chen Mo?"
After hesitating for a long time, Lin Yuling asked tentatively.
In fact, she also knows that once she asks this question, subconsciously, she also hopes that this person is really what she thinks.
Chen Mo said respectfully: "Greetings to Senior Lin!"
Lin Yuling's expression was very exciting for a moment: happy, nervous, sad and excited. She suddenly seemed unsteady. When Chu Wushuang saw this, he immediately rushed to help her: "Okay... okay..." Lin Yuling After saying many good words in a row, he calmed down his excitement.
"Master..."
Chu Wushuang was crying at the side. Time is not forgiving. The once heroic woman could not withstand the erosion of time after all. Lin Yuling was also old.
When Chen Mo saw her expression, he noticed something was wrong and tried to ask: "Senior Lin, where is my master?"
Lin Yuling did not give Chen Mo an answer immediately. Time seemed to stand still for a while. She sighed and said:
"When Wushuang finishes collecting the medicinal materials, we will go to see your master together."
Chen Mo heard her tone and Sun Xing didn't look like he was leaving. "Then Wu Shuang and I can pick together. We can go faster." Chen Mo really had no other ideas. He just wanted to see Sun Xing as soon as possible. .
"No, you come with me." Lin Yuling shook her head. Chen Mo followed her to the wooden house. After he sat down uneasily, Lin Yuling said sadly:
"Chen Mo, this matter... you have to be mentally prepared."
As soon as he heard this, Chen Mo understood that they were inseparable, and he became as silent as his name.
Neither of them spoke anymore. Chen Mo recalled every detail of Sun Xing's help to him, refining the Qingqing Pill for him, and telling him what the method of alchemy was... Chen Mo looked at most of the dusty furnishings in the house and couldn't help but feel... She shed tears when she touched the scene.
"How... could this happen?" Chen Mo realized that his voice had become hoarse for no apparent reason.
"Before Luo Feng Valley, your master had some hidden health problems, and his vitality was severely damaged due to an accident while hunting for treasures. In addition, there was no news from his apprentice. After these three setbacks, it was enough for him to still be able to breathe. It’s a blessing among misfortunes.”
"Master..."
Chen Mo lowered his head in self-reproach. Since he started practicing, Sun Xing was the first elder who did not seek repayment and did not plot against him. Now that the master's deadline is approaching, he still has an unclear relationship with him, so what? Why not make him ashamed?
Both of them were very sad. Seeing that Chen Mo was still holding back, Lin Yuling said: "The matter has come to this, so don't be too sad. Fortunately, the sky has eyes and can allow your master to see you again before he dies."
At this time, Chu Wushuang walked in and saw that their eyes were red. He naturally understood what was going on and whispered to Lin Yuling: "Master, everything has been collected."
"Okay." Lin Yuling stood up: "Then let's set off immediately without delay."
.......
An hour later, the three of them landed next to a prefecture. Sun Xing did not live in seclusion in the wilderness. He was in a noisy and bustling city, in a spacious courtyard.
Even though Chen Mo was a foundation-building monk, as he walked closer and closer to the main room, his legs stopped working and he actually showed signs of being unsteady.
This is not the coercion of cultivation momentum, but a symbol of fear from the heart.
Chu Wushuang came over and offered a hand: "Thank you." Chen Mo said that he had no more thoughts at this time.
The door was pushed open by Lin Yuling, and the aroma of medicine spread out of the room. Chen Mo finally understood why Chu Wushuang was in that medicine garden.
Chen Mo held on to the door frame and walked in, step by step, walking unsteadily, to the bed where Sun Xing was lying.
Sun Xing's eyes were closed tightly, and his old face could not hide the gray look. His cheekbones had lost a lot of weight. At this time, in his sleep, he was still breathing heavily in his throat, which was different from what Chen Mo remembered. The healthy little old man was completely different.
Chen Mo sensed that Sun Xing's cultivation was gradually deteriorating. To this extent, even if a rejuvenating doctor came here, it would be of no avail.
Losing spiritual power and consuming vitality, a person's life will come to an end.
After more than two hundred years of practice, no matter how glorious it was, in the end, it was just a dying body on the bed. Chen Mo seemed to have completely lost something in his heart.
He asked himself, has he really cared about anything since he started practicing?
parents? Chen Mo is indeed a cruel person. He left home when he embarked on the path to immortality at the age of seven, and he has never seen his parents again.
Externally, Chen Mo has to weigh the pros and cons, and must calculate big and small things step by step. He is always on guard and vigilant about the plots of those around him. Internally, he improves his cultivation. Just because the crisis of the black stone has temporarily disappeared does not mean that it does not exist. For the sake of resources, Bearing the humiliation and bearing the heavy burden, apart from magic weapons and spiritual weapons, who else could accompany Chen Mo?
Lonely, Chen Mo felt scared. He looked at the frail Sun Xing. With confused eyes, he seemed to see himself hundreds of years later, who had been living on the bedside for a long time, leaving alone in an empty room...
Chen Mo turned away, wiped the corners of his eyes, and then whispered: "Why does my master live here?"
Lin Yuling and Chu Wushuang were not stupid, and naturally understood what Chen Mo meant. If they could recuperate in Xianyun Valley and rely on the sufficient spiritual power there, the situation would definitely be better than the current situation.
"Old man Sun liked purity all his life. He wanted to experience a lively atmosphere before his death, so he let him go."
Chen Mo was speechless after listening, but he never expected that the two of them lowered their voices so much, which still caused Sun Xing's figure to move slightly, waking him up.
Chen Mo clearly saw that Sun Xing's eyes had opened a little, but not completely. There was a turbid light in his eyes - he had seen this scene in the eyes of many dying people, and the corners of Sun Xing's mouth twitched. He moved, but no words came out. At this time, his chest was like a leaking bellows, beginning to rise and fall violently, showing an extremely irregular shape.
"Master, don't be excited...I'm back!"
When Chen Mo saw that something was not going well, he immediately comforted him softly. Sun Xing's eyes were fixed on Chen Mo, as if he hadn't seen enough. His withered palm grabbed the latter's wrist with such force that Chen Mo couldn't believe it. , Master still has such a strong power, but it just comes and goes quickly. After a few breaths, his hand dropped weakly.
Chu Wushuang and Lin Yuling were both sad and slightly relieved. They just sobbed and sat on the bench without saying a word.
Chen Mo saw the corner of Sun Xing's mouth trembling. He sadly noticed that the master was struggling to speak. He immediately listened with his ear. The voice was intermittent, and three light words came out: Build... foundation.... ..
"Yes, the foundation is established."
Chen Mo tried his best to put on a smile. Lin Yuling and the other two said nothing when they saw this, and left the room silently. Only Chen Mo and Sun Xing were left: "Master, if you want to hear it, just blink. The apprentice's experience over the years ." Chen Mo said as calmly as he could.
Sun Xing blinked as expected.
So Chen Mo started talking from Beihuang County, not missing any detail. If there are still people in this world of cultivation who are willing to listen to him, Master should be one of the few. Except for some things that must be concealed, Chen Mo almost didn't say anything. Speak out without reservation.
"When the disciple first joined the Fuyun Sect..."
As Chen Mo spoke, he looked at his master Sun Xing. He closed his eyes again at some point and fell asleep with even breathing. Maybe Sun Xing really wanted to hear it all, but for him at this time, he no longer had the ability. .
"Master... rest. If you rest enough, everything will be over." Chen Mo said to himself in his heart.
