Forging a Saint (Part One)
When Mo Tang returned to Ye City, he found it to be a ruined city.
His expression immediately turned ugly. Mo Tang transformed into a streak of light and instantly arrived at the headquarters of the Four Directions Pavilion in the city...
Behind them, Bi Wu and Xiao Yi Xian were clearly not expecting this to happen either.
Clearly, Ye City has been attacked by a powerful figure...
"Let's go. Hopefully, the losses won't be too great this time." Bi Wu shook his head slightly and immediately followed Mo Tang ahead.
A cold killing intent flashed in Xiao Yi Xian's purple eyes, because she could clearly sense the anger in Mo Tang's heart at this moment...
Anyone who angers their man deserves to die!
In the hall, Ye Xinlan looked at the man in front of her somewhat timidly...
Although the other person's face remained expressionless, she could sense a terrifying energy lurking within them, ready to erupt at any moment.
What exactly happened at the Four Directions Pavilion after I left?
Mo Tang's emotionless voice echoed around them.
Ye Xinlan was startled by the sudden sound. After realizing what had happened, she immediately recounted everything that had occurred in detail.
It turned out that not long after Mo Tang San left, a man claiming to be the Crimson Flame Evil Lord came looking for Mo Tang, saying he wanted to avenge his brother...
Upon hearing the name, Mo Tang immediately frowned.
"Crimson Flame Evil Lord? I don't know anyone like that. Also, did he mention who his elder brother is?"
Although he has offended many people over the years, there are probably not many who could beat the four Venerables of the Four Directions Pavilion to such a state.
The Four Directions Pavilion has indeed suffered a great loss this time. Among the four Venerables, Venerable Feng and Venerable Jian are seriously injured and are currently in seclusion to heal their wounds. It is unlikely that they will be able to fully recover in the short term.
As for Venerable Lei, as Mo Tang's master, he was the most miserable, and was beaten to the point of barely having a breath left... It was only because Ye Zhong took out his family's ancestral Eighth-Tier healing pill that he was kept alive, otherwise Mo Tang would be holding a funeral right now.
Of the four Venerables, Wang Chen was the least injured. It was unclear whether the other party simply disdained to attack him. In any case, he was the least injured. However, he was so frightened by the other party that he immediately hid in his own lair Yellow Springs Pavilion.
Mo Tang didn't have time to deal with him right now. The most important thing was to find out the identity and whereabouts of his enemy. The other party was not weak, so he had to eliminate the danger completely.
It should be noted that the various branches of the Four Directions Pavilion are too far apart. Even if there are wormholes connecting them, it would be difficult to defend against an attack from such a powerful figure.
Upon hearing Mo Tang's question, Ye Xinlan quickly replied, "That person said his elder brother is the Demon Flower Evil Lord..."
Demon Flower Evil Lord?
Mo Tang was instantly stunned.
This guy has a brother? How come I didn't know that?
I tried hard to recall the original plot in my mind, but it seems there wasn't such a person.
However, since the other party claims to be the brother of the Demon Flower Evil Lord, he is very likely also a member of the Heaven Nether Sect... Originally, Mo Tang did not intend to cause trouble for the Heaven Nether Sect now, but he did not expect the other party to make the first move.
That's fine, since that's the case, then Mo Tang doesn't mind making the other party one of his next targets.
Using a top-tier power as a stepping stone to rise to power should be enough, right?
After asking a few more questions and finding that Ye Xinlan had no more useful information, Mo Tang turned around and went to the backyard.
There, Ye Zhong, the Pavilion Master of the Alchemy Pavilion, was carefully treating Venerable Lei's body. The once majestic and domineering Venerable Lei was now lying there with a pale face, still unconscious.
"Grand Master!"
Upon seeing Mo Tang enter, Ye Zhong quickly stood up and bowed to Mo Tang.
With a wave of his hand, Mo Tang glanced at Venerable Lei lying there, his brows furrowing into a knot.
"Senior Ye, I wonder how my teacher is doing now?"
Ye Zhong shook his head with a wry smile and replied, "Please forgive me, Grand Pavilion Master, this old man is truly powerless. Moreover, there is a very strange energy within Venerable Lei's body that is constantly damaging his meridians..."
If this continues, I'm afraid that in another month, Venerable Lei's body will suffer irreversible damage. Even if we can revive him then, his cultivation level will probably be lost...
Mo Tang's expression changed, and he quickly came to the bedside. His soul power instantly invaded Venerable Lei's meridians to investigate.
Sure enough, in Mo Tang's perception, Venerable Lei's meridians were filled with a strange fire energy that was deeply condensed with his Dou Qi and even his blood and qi, constantly eroding his body.
"This is... Heavenly Flames?"
Mo Tang was taken aback.
This was the second time he had been surprised today.
First, that so-called Demon Flower Evil Lord suddenly appeared with a powerful brother, and this minor character, who didn't even appear in the original work, also possessed an unknown Heavenly Flames.
The Dou Qi Continent's Ranking of Heavenly Flames consists of twenty-three Heavenly Flames, each with a detailed description. Many top powers possess this information, and Mo Tang naturally learned about it from the ancient texts left by Old Yao.
However, the Heavenly Flames currently within Venerable Lei's body is different from all twenty-three other Heavenly Flames...
"This is getting more and more interesting..."
A deep killing intent flashed in Mo Tang's eyes. It was better to eliminate this "unexpected person" who was not under his control!
Of course, the most important thing now is to find a way to save Venerable Lei's life and cultivation.
If Ye Zhong has no other choice, he'll probably have to seek help from the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan...
After consulting with Bi Wu, the other party indeed gave him a feasible solution.
"Actually, it's simple. At worst, we can just reconstruct a new body for him..."
Although such a task requires extremely high standards, the Heaven Demon Phoenix Clan, with its resources and capabilities, is naturally capable of accomplishing it.
Moreover, given Mo Tang's current status in the clan, this matter wouldn't be too difficult if he only needed the clan leader's approval.
However, his suggestion did catch Mo Tang's eye...
It seems that in the original novel, when Xiao Yan was refining Old Yao's body, he added the essence of Dou Sheng's bone marrow, which directly pushed Old Yao's strength to the level of Half-Saint.
Besides, didn't his cheap disciple also forcibly use the Dou Saint Remains to reconstruct a body for him?
Although these two are fundamentally different, they also seem to have some things in common...
"I now possess the complete remains of the Saint of Creation. If I could integrate them into my teacher's body, wouldn't that mean I could create another Saint level powerhouse?"
Once the idea appeared in Mo Tang's mind, it immediately lingered and wouldn't leave!
