Li Mo muttered to himself, "The Ice Block isn't..."

"Li Mo, how was my sword strike just now?"

"That's impressive! What kind of Swordsmanship is it?"

Little Li was momentarily confused, wondering why Ice Block had suddenly brought this up.

"That sword is called Divine Firmament Demon Slayer; when wielded by the Heavenly Human Divine Sword, it is like a fish in water."

Ying Bing's face was frosty, but her eyes held a hint of a smile as she said:

"So... do you want to learn?"

"!"

Little Li's eyes flashed quickly and clearly, then he turned his head sharply and said seriously, "That's right, just to be on the safe side, I secretly had Ying Bing follow us to provide backup at any time."

God Catcher: "?"

That wasn't what you were trying to say, was it?

The divine constable possessed keen insight and had mastered a martial art that allowed him to observe micro-expressions, the flow of vital energy, and heartbeats to determine whether someone was lying.

It seems that the Divine Hammer Little Overlord wasn't telling the truth...

Whether they got lost or were pre-arranged to meet them isn't that important...

"And then what happened?"

Li Mo said, "Later, that Demon Summoning Cult Sect's External Scene Realm couldn't withstand Ying Bing's sword and the Heavenly Tribulation, and an arm split open in its chest."

"Arm?!"

The constable's expression changed, and his tone suddenly became urgent:

What kind?

"There is a mouth on the palm, its color is bluish-black, and there are many horrifying wounds on it. The Divine Charm within the wounds must be very ancient."

Li Mo's answer was based on his own experience and insights.

After all, he had fought against many beings who had long since vanished into the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, though only as projections.

"I understand, thank you for informing me Young Hero Li."

After hearing this, the constable immediately began giving instructions to his subordinates, as if he had encountered something of great importance.

Zhao Jing followed them down into the cave.

The conversation ended.

Li Mo let out a long breath. He realized that his physical body, after being tempered by the heavenly tribulation, seemed to have reached a higher level.

It seems I've... entered the basics of the Eight-Nine Arcane Arts?

But before he could display his power, the one at the Profound Mastery Realm arrived.

[Congratulations, host! You have destroyed the Blood Refinement Hall hideout of the Demon Summoning Cult, reducing the spread of the Divine Strength Powder and preventing several martial artists from going astray.]

[Investment Feedback: A Year of Reflections on Martial Arts]

[Investment Feedback: One bottle of liniment for bruises and sprains.]

[Investment Feedback: A Year of Reflections on Martial Arts]

[Investment Feedback: A snuff bottle from the Western Regions.]

The persistent notification tone rang in my ears.

Most of the items are miscellaneous, with a small portion being martial arts insights. But even though it's a small portion, the sheer volume is enough to keep it at least three hundred years old. I'll take a proper look at it when I get back.

Actually, from the perspective of what one gains...

The Heavenly Venerable Brand Instant Noodles, which contained Divine Strength Powder, provided him with a large amount of the Power of All Living Beings, which was even better than this feedback.

But Li Mo was in a good mood, and looking at everyone, he said:

"I'll cook dinner tonight, let's have a nice meal."

"I want to drink Immortal Drunk!" Xiao Qin laughed.

"How about we make a lion's head?"

Huang Donglai suggested.

The lion's head he mentioned is a real lion's head, made from the mythical lion, and it's great for grilling.

"Okay, okay." Murong Xiao slurped his words.

Li Mo looked at him curiously. "Didn't you already become a monk? Aren't there any rules and regulations for you?"

Some Buddhist rules are different.

However, it seems that eating meat is not permitted at the Hanging Temple.

"Yes, and it's very strict, so..."

"So I'll get you some vegetarian dishes?"

"So when you're drinking and eating meat, you absolutely mustn't let your master see you."

"..."

The Master Burial Love is indeed an unconventional monk, never following the usual path.

"Alright, let's go back then."

Li Mo retrieved the Bronze Chariot from the System Space and headed towards Cloud-Stepping Tower.

The sound of carriage wheels accompanied the singing:

"Who says only those who stand in the light are heroes?"

The underground rivers are intricate and lead all the way to the Inner City.

Tan Zhuyin survived.

The reason is that he was not the primary target of Profound Mastery expert who was tracking him.

The Demon Summoning Cult forces in the Imperial Capital also gathered together immediately.

"Holy Son, you are the sole survivor of the Blood Refinement Hall's stronghold. What happened?" The Blood Refinement Hall, wearing a half-mask, asked.

The expressions of the other branch leaders were also profound in the darkness.

The destruction of one stronghold is not important.

But the Blood God's remains are now gone, which is very important.

"Because of two people."

Tan Zhuyin automatically ignored Xiao Qin, Murong Xiao, and Huang Donglai.

"Cold Fairy, Divine Hammer Little Overlord! It's mainly that Cold Fairy."

"If she hadn't used the Heavenly Human Divine Sword to trigger a heavenly tribulation, causing that Gan Gong to sense it and descend, things wouldn't have come to this!"

"?"

Listening to Tan Zhuyin's narration, the high-ranking members of the Demon Summoning Cult Sect felt as if they were hearing a foreign language.

So, in the end, it was Cold Fairy who, like Goddess descending to earth, snatched the Heavenly Human Divine Sword from Divine Hammer Little Overlord at the critical moment and fought bravely against the External Scene Realm?

"I said even books wouldn't dare to make this up..."

Zhu Renji thought it was a fantasy just by thinking about it.

But if things weren't as Tan Zhuyin said, they really couldn't understand why things would turn out this way.

The high- Demon Summoning Cult were filled with astonishment and admiration.

Ying Bing is terrifying.

Only now did they suddenly realize that it wasn't shameful for the Holy Son to suffer a defeat at her hands.

"Li Mo deserves to die..."

A high-ranking member of the Demon Summoning Cult felt his scalp tingle and tremble all over.

"?"

The higher-ups of the demonic cult looked at him like a writhing maggot, unable to understand why he was making such a disgusting and awkward expression.

"Just imagine, a deafening roar in the sky, a fairy makes a dazzling appearance, and a beauty saves the hero..."

"Hiss..."

The temperature at the cult's stronghold plummeted, as many people gasped in shock.

Thinking about it that way...

It does cause a slight separation of the plasmosome...

So if you can make people envious to a certain extent, even the members of the Demonic Sect can't stand it.

In an instant, countless cold snorts rang out, and killing intent surged.

"This child truly has a way of courting death!"

I heard his fists clench.

"Alright."

Suddenly, the Blood Refinement Hall, wearing a half-mask, stood up and faced the bronze statue behind him.

Following his gaze, everyone noticed that the statue of one of the three ancestral gods seemed to be emitting fluctuations?

"Has the Blood God sent another message?"

"In that case, proceed as planned."

The Blood Refinement Hall slightly raised his eyes and said:

"We're planning to have a prodigy enter the top three of the Hidden Dragon and send them to the Heavenly Human City to help Lord Blood God control the Heavenly Human City!"

At the same time.

Cloud-Stepping Tower.

The moon is bright, the stars are few, and the sky is clear for miles.

Li Mo, holding Ice Block's hand, ignored the magnificent night view of the Imperial Capital and focused on observing the moon in the sky.

After observing the Divine Intent of Taiyin, Ying Bing said softly:

"In a while, I'll teach you the Divine Firmament -Slaying Sword."

"Can't we do it today?"

Little Li has a strong thirst for knowledge.

"Your compatibility with the Heavenly Human Divine Sword is still low; it's best to focus on understanding its Swordsmanship first."

"To what extent do you need to comprehend it?"

Li Mo knew that Ice Block was right.

With the Hidden Dragon Assembly approaching, it's natural to make as many preparations as possible, since I won't be able to use the Hammer Treasure then and will have to rely entirely on the Heavenly Human Divine Sword.

"One or two out of ten is fine."

"All right."

Li Mo shared his insights on martial arts.

Learning Ice Block's Swordsmanship before the Hidden Dragon Assembly seems... pretty much the same?

So he opened his arms.

"Ice Block, give me a hug."

"?"

"You gave me a shock today, and it seems like my body has become stronger. Can you check if this is normal?"

Li Mo said earnestly.

"..."

Ying Bing pursed her lips, snuggled into his arms, and looked serious.

She secretly pinched an acupoint on his waist, and after sensing it, her eyes slightly lost focus.

How come his physical progress is greater than mine?
