In the dark night sky, a half-moon hangs above, casting a faint and cold moonlight on the earth.
In the small, dark forest, a faint campfire flickers lightly, bringing a hint of warmth to the silent night.
Next to the campfire, a boy leans against a tree trunk. The firelight shines on his face, highlighting his handsome features.
After parting with Xiao Yan, including today, Mo Yu has been away from Wu Tan City for three days. After living a comfortable life in Wu Tan City for over a year, Mo Yu feels somewhat uncomfortable with life in the wilderness.
However, he is not inexperienced in the ways of the world, so after three days, Mo Yu has gradually adapted to this lifestyle.
The goal this time is naturally the Valley of Beasts in the Mulan Empire. However, before that, it is best to improve his strength.
After all, the Mulan Empire is adjacent to the Jia Ma Empire and is likely to have many masters.
Mo Yu knows that, although the Mu Lan Empire does not have any Dou Zong powerhouses, it does have three Dou Huang peak powerhouses, commonly known as the Three Elders of Mulan.
Although the three Mulan elders have never entered the Dou Zong realm, they have practiced a fusion fighting skill called the Three Beasts Savage Art. When they perform this skill together, it is so powerful that even a Dou Zong would be wary of it. Therefore, they are capable of matching an ordinary Dou Zong.
In the original plot, the three Mulan elders caused a lot of trouble for the Yanmeng, which was just founded by Xiao Yan.
However, Mo Yu, who is familiar with the original plot, also knows that their fusion fighting skills have certain drawbacks. If one of them is interrupted, the skill cannot be completed.
Although he might not necessarily confront the three elders of the Mulan Empire this time, Mo Yu keeps this in mind just in case.
The night is long, and for a warrior, sleep is no longer a necessity. Under the bright moonlight, Mo Yu silently begins to meditate and practice.
…
After a night of practice, although his fighting spirit improved very slowly, Mo Yu did not feel tired. Instead, he was in high spirits, with a gleam of brilliance in his starry eyes.
Therefore, when the sun rose, Mo Yu set out on his journey for the day.
The scorching sun and high temperatures have caused cracks in the dirt ground. As the soles of his feet touch the hard soil, a wave of heat surges in from his feet, making travelers sweat profusely and curse the oppressive weather.
Compared to the dusty road, it is much cooler in the gloomy jungle with its tall trees and dense grass.
On the jungle trail, a young man moves swiftly over obstacles and ditches, as if the rugged woodlands were as smooth as a flat road under his feet.
"The Flash is good for traveling, but unfortunately, the Extreme Spiritual Thunder Technique is only a mid-level Xuan-level technique. If the Tiangang Thunder Body does not continue to grow, the Dou Qi energy in my body will not be enough to use it."
Using the Nine Flashes of the Wandering Dragon for travel not only saves time but also serves as a form of cultivation. However, after just one hour, 60 to 70 percent of Mo Yu's fighting spirit was consumed.
Shaking his head, Mo Yu looked towards the northeast, hoping that after successfully devouring the Ten Thousand Beasts Spirit Fire, Xuan Lei would reach its peak and be able to evolve the Tiangang Thunder Body again.
To conserve his fighting spirit, Mo Yu stopped using Flash to speed up his journey. Fortunately, he arrived at a small town near the Warcraft Mountains before dark.
The town is called Qingshan Town. Due to its proximity to the Warcraft Mountains, it is also known as Warcraft Town. The largest group of residents in the town are mercenaries who are constantly on the edge of danger and tend to group together.
Hearing the name of this town, Mo Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
If he remembered correctly, the Little Fairy Doctor was making a living here now.
Mo Yu was somewhat curious about this Little Fairy Doctor, who had a rough fate but an extremely beautiful appearance. However, due to her circumstances, she had no connection with Xiao Yan anymore. This is naturally a good thing for Xun'er, but without Xiao Yan's help, Xiao Yixian might struggle to condense the poison pill and control her poisonous body on her own.
Although Mo Yu felt a little sorry for this, he did not feel overly guilty.
After all, this is a real world, and Xiao Yan and Xiao Yixian have nothing to do with each other at this moment. What Mo Yu did was merely to alter the course of events.
For people today, the sun still rises in the east and sets in the west, and nothing has changed.
However, if the opportunity arises, Mo Yu wouldn't mind helping Xiao Yixian. The poison produced by her evil poison body is extremely dangerous to others, but for him, it might be a great tonic.
After all, there is a mysterious thunder in his body that likes to devour these poisonous substances.
After considering this for a moment, Mo Yu promptly pushed these thoughts aside.
Because of his existence, who knows whether the story's trajectory has changed? Maybe the Little Fairy Doctor has already left Qingshan Town.
Walking on the bluestone-paved street, Mo Yu, with his handsome and fair-skinned appearance, naturally attracts many curious looks. Some even regard him with a hint of lust.
In response, Mo Yu frowned, then threw a lightning and fire bead. With a loud bang, the mercenary who had looked at him with ill intent was blown to the brink of death.
Seeing Mo Yu start a fight without warning, the mercenary's companions were naturally very angry. Just as they were about to step in for revenge, Mo Yu calmly took out several thunder and fire beads.
Seeing the power of the beads, the mercenaries broke into a cold sweat. They did not want to risk their lives for their companions and began to retreat.
Seeing this, Mo Yu walked past them with an expressionless face.
These thunder and fire beads were specially refined by him in recent days. Their power is much greater than before, even capable of overwhelming five- or six-star fighters. They are very suitable for dealing with minor threats.
There are many shops lining the street, popular due to their location. Mo Yu looked around the brightly lit shops with interest. When his eyes fell on a spacious herbal medicine shop, he paused. After a moment of hesitation, he walked into the herbal medicine shop named 'Wan Yao Bar.'
Entering the spacious shop, the interior was brightly lit by moonstones hanging on the walls. The shop was quite busy at the moment, and the clerks were all occupied, so no one greeted Mo Yu when he arrived.
After a quick glance, Mo Yu shook his head in disappointment. Although there were some good materials for weapon refining, they were not very useful to him at the moment.
Just as Mo Yu was about to leave empty-handed, his gaze fell on a purple-black object in the corner through the transparent counter. After a moment, his brows twitched, and he walked calmly to the counter, lowered his head, and looked at the object again.
"Hey... please help me take this thing out."
Slowly retracting his greedy and excited gaze, Mo Yu looked up and addressed a male clerk who was approaching.
The young clerk, noticing Mo Yu's distinguished appearance, brightened up. After examining the item Mo Yu requested, he smiled flatteringly, "Black crystal stone, intermediate equipment, three thousand gold coins."
"Yes, that's it—one of the main materials for refining the fire shield, amethyst!"
