Chapter 1049 - 1057: Huang Yi's Request for Help (2)

This Ancient Ruins doesn't have some Array that restricts High Tier Cultivators from entering like in the novels he had read.

Instead, the high-level figures of these forces and clans are afraid of death yet unwilling to give up benefits, so they send juniors below the Fourth Realm from their clans to go in and help them fight over the things they want.

One must know, to raise a Sixth Realm Powerhouse, even if their talent is exceptional, it still takes at least one or two hundred years, consuming an enormous amount of resources. Therefore, their fall is a tremendous blow to any force.

So, compared to a Sixth Realm Powerhouse, Cultivators below the Fourth Realm, even if they fall in the Ancient Ruins, are still within what they can accept, and can be raised again.

Seeing the look of sudden realization in Chen Mo's eyes, Huang Yi knew he had understood, so she said, "According to the information that was spread from inside, there are Phoenix Remains of a fallen Phoenix in this Ancient Ruins. Thus, I need you to help me obtain a portion of the Phoenix Remains. It doesn't need to be a complete corpse, just a part will do. If there is remaining Phoenix Essence Blood, that would be even better."

"Fairy Yi, even if that Barrier only allows Cultivators below the Fourth Realm to enter, in your clan there should still be clansmen stronger than me, right? Why did Fairy Yi come to me?" Chen Mo asked in confusion.

Huang Yi said, "To be honest, because my Eagle Owl Race bears the Phoenix Bloodline, almost everyone in the clan needs these Phoenix Remains. The high-levels in the clan will all send their own juniors. So even if those juniors obtain them, it's unlikely they will hand them over to me. Moreover, no one can guarantee that those juniors won't use them themselves after obtaining them and won't bring them out at all, since they need them too."

All right then.

Chen Mo understood.

These Phoenix Remains are a coveted treasure for every member of the Eagle Owl Race.

And he, an outsider, comparatively speaking, doesn't need these Phoenix Remains that badly.

"Fairy Yi, I understand. I'm willing to go and do my best to help Fairy Yi obtain the Phoenix Remains." Chen Mo said.

Seeing Chen Mo agree so readily, Huang Yi instead felt a bit guilty. She bit lightly on her shell-white teeth and said, "Won't you think it over more carefully? The inside of the Ancient Ruins is far more dangerous than the Jade Secret Realm. The people who go in won't care about your identity or background. If you touch their interests, they will strike to kill."

Huang Yi felt she had to tell Chen Mo about the dangers involved.

"I know, but I'm still willing to go." Chen Mo said.

Huang Yi was stunned, feeling that Chen Mo might be agreeing only because he was afraid of angering her, so she said, "I know this request is somewhat forcing you, so even if you refuse, I won't blame you."

Chen Mo shook his head and said firmly, "I'm willing to serve Fairy Yi."

Huang Yi's beautiful eyes shimmered as she looked at Chen Mo's firm and handsome face. Her red lips parted slightly: "Why?"

"Hm?"

"Why do you want to help me?"

"Because Fairy Yi has helped me as well, and not just once. You've helped clear up my doubts many times. I want to repay Fairy Yi." Chen Mo looked into Huang Yi's beautiful eyes and spoke seriously.

Huang Yi's expression froze for a moment, then she revealed a stunning smile and said, "I believe you."

"Fairy Yi, then when are we leaving?" Chen Mo asked.

"There's still time, but the Ancient Ruins are of great importance, and who knows if they will open early, so the clan has decided to go over early and wait." Huang Yi said.

"Then let's go." Chen Mo said.

"Aren't you going back to inform your family?" Huang Yi asked.

"No need. Before I came, I already gave instructions. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"I just didn't expect that Fairy Yi would be looking for me for something this important, and I didn't make any arrangements for my affairs after death." Chen Mo said with a smile, "But that's fine too. Back in my hometown, those who arrange their affairs beforehand usually end up not surviving."

Hearing this, Huang Yi fell silent. Looking at Chen Mo's smiling face, an indescribable emotion rose in her heart. Just as she was about to say something, Chen Mo spoke again: "Fairy Yi, let's go. Otherwise, if we let your clansmen wait too long, they'll start blaming me again."

Huang Yi's eyes flickered.

...

In the plaza of the Eagle Owl Race.

The Great Elder Feng Nian, the Fifth Elder Feng Hong, as well as Huang Su, Feng Ying, Feng Xuan, Huang Lingling, and the others were all waiting.

They all knew Huang Yi had gone to find Chen Mo.

This time, Feng Hong showed not a trace of impatience.

This trip to the Ancient Ruins has no limit on slots. As long as one meets the requirements, they can enter. Even with Chen Mo added, it won't harm the interests of the Eagle Owl Race; on the contrary, one more person is one more share of Power.

There were also onlookers around the plaza.

They were curious about how far Chen Mo had grown in these more than five years.

After all, Chen Mo's performance in the Jade Secret Realm five years ago, even if there was an element of luck, had indeed earned the Eagle Owl Race some face.

Soon, a streak of green light appeared above the plaza.

The Great Elder Feng Nian, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them and looked up.

"Great Elder, Fifth Elder, sorry to have kept you waiting."

Huang Yi brought Chen Mo down lightly.

All eyes were drawn to Chen Mo at once.

Most people are actually unwilling to see others doing well.

Rather than say they wanted to see how far Chen Mo had grown, it would be better to say they wanted to see his misfortune, so they could mock him and satisfy that twisted pleasure in their hearts.

At the end of the day, Chen Mo is an outsider, and the fact that an outsider earned face for the Eagle Owl Race and even saved their goddess Huang Su made them feel uncomfortable.

They wanted to use Chen Mo's misfortune to show Huang Su that they were much stronger than Chen Mo.

Thus, when some people saw that Chen Mo was still in the Spirit Platform Realm, they didn't bother to carefully probe his Primordial Spirit Cultivation and couldn't help whispering among themselves.

"It seems Elder Huang Yi has entrusted the wrong person. It's been more than five years, yet he's still in the Spirit Platform Realm."

"Exactly, what a waste of a Seven-Turned Spirit Fruit. Feng Xuan is already at the Mid-Stage of Spirit Wheel Realm."

"Sigh, what a pity."

...

Seeing that Chen Mo was still in the Spirit Platform Realm made some people feel inexplicably relieved.

Even Huang Su and Huang Lingling both had a trace of disappointment flash in their eyes.

Especially Huang Su. When she found out that Huang Yi had gone to find Chen Mo, there had been a faint expectation in her heart that she didn't want to admit.

Among these people, when most didn't want to see Chen Mo doing well, she was one of the few who did. She wanted to see Chen Mo become strong.

But Chen Mo had disappointed her.

In her view, Chen Mo had chosen to degenerate.

If he had stayed back then, his current achievements, even if not higher than theirs, wouldn't be much lower.

But he insisted on returning to that Land of Spiritual Extinction. Wasn't that crippling his own future?

Only Feng Nian, Feng Hong, and a certain young man noticed something different.

Feng Nian said in surprise, "Chen Mo, little friend, didn't Huang Yi say you have Spirit and God Dual Cultivation? Why has your Primordial Spirit stepped into the Third Realm first?"

"What, his Primordial Spirit has stepped into the Celestial Yuan Realm?!"

These words shocked some of those who had been mocking Chen Mo. They withdrew the sneers from their faces and carefully sensed him. Those whose Cultivation surpassed Chen Mo's immediately discovered that the fluctuations of his Soul Power were no longer in the Second Realm.

"How is that possible... His Spiritual Cultivation is clearly in the Spirit Platform Realm. How can his Primordial Spirit step into the Third Realm? Wouldn't his body be blown apart?" someone questioned.

"Great Elder, Chen Mo is also a Body Cultivator." Chen Mo had just been about to speak when Huang Yi said it for him.

With these words, the scene erupted.

"What, he's also a Body Cultivator?"

"The path of Body Cultivators has long been severed. Isn't he digging his own grave?"

"He already has Spirit and God Dual Cultivation. If you add Body Cultivation, that's triple cultivation. How can he possibly handle that?"

"..."

On the path of Cultivation, more isn't always better. The more paths one practices, the less time can be devoted to each.

It's better to focus on one, so you can grow faster.

Huang Su, who had been somewhat surprised to learn that Chen Mo's Primordial Spirit had stepped into the Third Realm, was once again disappointed when she found out he was also a Body Cultivator.

Not to mention that the path of Body Cultivators has already been cut off.

Triple cultivation on three paths—this is not a road that can go far.
