Chapter 167: Nine Transcendental Transformations, Hidden Eyes
"Eternal Spring Pill, if taken, can lock the essence of the body for three years without leaking. Those who are new to martial arts can benefit from taking it."
Chen Mo looked at the pill in front of him. This pill was placed on the second floor of the secret vault. It was indeed not very helpful for him, but it could help Zhao Yu practice.
Locking the essence of the body, martial artists will make faster progress in both external and internal skills.
This type of pill is often used by top families or sects to lay the foundation for the next generation of core children.
If Zhao Yu swallowed this pill, it would make her martial arts practice much faster.
Chen Mo did not ask her to have a high level of cultivation, as long as she could be free from illness and disaster.
Taking the pill, Chen Mo walked into the third floor to get the weapon he had long wanted.
The Eight Desolate Halberd was still there. This weapon was almost difficult to use for non-innate martial artists. Even after so long, no one had touched it.
Chen Mo's true energy vibrated, and he instantly refined the halberd and mastered the formation above.
At this moment, he discovered that the formation can be adjusted to change the weight of the halberd between 1,800 jin and 8,800 jin.
In this way, he doesn't have to worry about his strength increasing in the future, and this weapon will be difficult to use.
Putting it into the storage bag, Chen Mo continued to explore the third floor.
At this moment, he has discovered that the door of the Emperor's Secret Vault has been opened for a long time, and he can enter it to explore at any time if he wants.
However, the things stored in this innermost secret vault may not be rarer than those on the third floor.
Chen Mo's time on the third floor this time is obviously much longer.
In the third-floor secret vault, he quickly found a storage ring.
This is a real storage ring, and warriors can use true qi to refine it and leave a true qi mark on it.
If others want to open this ring, they must slowly wear away the true qi mark left by the previous warrior in it.
Opening it by force will only cause the storage ring to explode, and everything stored in it will turn into ashes.
The space inside the storage ring is also much more spacious than the storage bag.
The one in Chen Mo's hand is ten feet wide, five feet high, and thirty feet long.
The space of a storage ring is far better than ten storage bags.
After transferring the more precious materials in the storage bag into the storage ring one by one, Chen Mo continued to explore here.
After a rough look, he did not find anything else of value, so he walked into the innermost layer of the secret vault.
There are too many precious and rare treasures stored here, but there are not many things that he can use.
Chen Mo searched carefully and really found one, which is called the Sealing Heaven Talisman.
It has only one function, that is, to forcibly seal a piece of heaven and earth and dispel the mirage here.
This talisman can be said to be an advanced version of the amulet, and the effect is more powerful.
If Chen Mo had this talisman to protect himself outside the Chaos Valley that day, he would not be dragged into the mirage mirror.
If you want to explore the mirage sea, it is undoubtedly safer to bring this talisman.
Chen Mo had not explored the Mirage Sea during this period because he had been busy with other things.
Now that the King of Pingxi was dead and the situation in the court was gradually stabilizing, he could consider exploring other Mirage Seas.
With his power, he could even mobilize troops to build a camp.
And he could completely control the number of people in the barracks.
Exploring the Mirage Sea would bring him many gains.
And Chen Mo could also guess that many generals and officials would send him gifts one after another.
The Taifu was indeed just a nominal position and had no real power.
But the General of the Western Expedition of Daqian was a real official position. When he took office, someone would definitely send him gifts.
This could be said to be an unspoken rule in the officialdom, and Chen Mo would naturally not refuse it.
After registering the selected items, Chen Mo put them into the storage bag and strode out of the palace.
Returning home, the court rewards had been delivered one after another, and large wooden boxes were carried into the house one after another.
The robes, crowns, and seals of the Duke, the Grand Tutor, and the General of Zhenxi were all delivered one by one.
In addition, the Pingxi Palace was renovated and given to Chen Mo as a reward.
However, he had no plans to move yet. There were only him and Zhao Yu at home, so they could live anywhere.
Among the things rewarded to him, in addition to the most basic blood essence stone, there was also a medicine garden, which produced various rare herbs that could help warriors practice.
Chen Mo did not get the medicine garden completely, but more like he got the right to collect taxes from the medicine garden.
The medicine garden is usually managed by a special person, and a fixed amount of herbs will be given to him every year.
As for the ten manors, they are simple manors, where all kinds of vegetables, fruits, chickens, ducks, fish, geese, cattle, sheep, and pigs are raised.
If Chen Mo wants to eat something, he doesn't have to buy it anymore, just let his own garden supply it.
In addition, if the things produced in these gardens are not eaten, they can be sold, which is considered a fixed income.
Zhao Yu arranged for people to collect all kinds of rewards one after another, while Chen Mo sent away the blood stones first, and then another imperial edict arrived.
"The Emperor of Heaven and the Mandate of Heaven, decrees that Zhao Yu, the wife of Chen Huimo, the Duke of Pingyang, the Grand Tutor, and the General of the Western Expedition, is gentle, respectful, frugal, and extremely intelligent. She is now specially conferred the title of a first-rank imperial lady!"
Since Chen Mo has a first-rank official position, then according to the rules, Zhao Yu's imperial edict should also be promoted to the first rank.
"Your wife accepts the order." Zhao Yu already had an imperial edict, so she could call herself a minister when she received the order.
Chen Mo took some silver and rewarded the palace servant who came to convey the imperial edict.
Then countless people came to visit and congratulated Chen Mo on his promotion, and naturally brought countless gifts.
Most officials have not yet asked him for anything, nor are they under Chen Mo's command. They are only sending gifts now in the hope of getting closer to him, so that they can come to him if they have the chance to ask for help in the future.
Therefore, the gifts sent are not very precious, but just a common gift.
And the many border army generals still stationed outside the capital will be under the jurisdiction of Chen Mo, the General of the Western Expedition.
Although the border army generals who are left now did not rebel with the King of Pingxi that day, they are also worried that Chen Mo will replace them.
Naturally, they dare not be careless about this, and hurriedly prepare generous gifts to send.
Chen Mo is quick to accept these gifts and encourages them one by one.
Most of these people were uneasy when they came to give gifts, and it can be seen that they were relieved when Chen Mo accepted the gifts.
The officials who came to visit and congratulate were endless, and the number of people gradually decreased until the afternoon.
Various gifts, big and small, almost filled the entire house. Zhao Yu ordered the servants to sort them out one by one, and even counted the gift list and visiting cards.
This is an extremely troublesome thing. Fortunately, most of them are done by servants. She only needs to check the accounts when she is free another day.
"How is your martial arts practice now? Have you gained anything?" Chen Mo was sitting at the table drinking tea. Seeing Zhao Yu coming, he also poured her a cup.
"Not bad." Zhao Yu looked quite confident. She had not practiced martial arts for a long time, but her progress was not slow.
She was not a genius, but she could be called an upper-middle-level talent.
"I have a pill here. If you eat it, it will increase your practice speed." Chen Mo took out the jade bottle that stored the pill and handed it to her.
Zhao Yu took it and looked at it carefully again and again, "This, it's very expensive, right? Otherwise, you should keep it for use."
She shook her head gently and didn't want it. With her current status, she naturally understood that the price of the pill that can be stored in a jade bottle specifically cannot be estimated in silver.
With her current martial arts cultivation, swallowing such a pill would be a bit of a waste, so it would be better to keep it for Chen Mo.
"This is a pill to lay the foundation of martial arts. I found it specifically for you. I don't need it for my current cultivation."
Chen Mo opened the jade bottle and took out a pill that was full of vitality.
Zhao Yu did not refuse seeing this, and swallowed the pill into her throat, and immediately felt the fullness of the medicine.
"Just practice normally to digest this medicine, there is no need to digest it deliberately." Chen Mo stood aside and carefully explained to her how to digest the medicine.
She was only absorbing a small part now. The power contained in the pill would lie dormant in her body, and she would slowly absorb it as she practiced daily.
After instructing her to absorb the medicine, it was almost evening, and Sun Shouren sent someone to deliver a message that he would hold a banquet at home today to celebrate the joy of moving to a new house.
He is now an earl and has also been rewarded by the court. He has a mansion in this inner city, so he naturally moved from the outer city to the inner city to live.
Zhao Yu selected another gift from the many gifts he had given before and prepared to give it to his adoptive father to celebrate his move.
At night, there was a banquet until the stars were visible in the sky near midnight. Mo Hu and other people who had not yet started a family stayed in the mansion.
Chen Mo and Zhao Yu returned home together.
There were no servants accompanying them on this trip, only the two of them.
Chen Mo's face was slightly red, and there was still a little bit of alcohol.
He held Zhao Yu's hand tightly, stepped on the cold moonlight, and walked slowly towards his home.
The two walked slowly, and they would stop from time to time to talk about some secrets and interesting things between husband and wife.
Back home, the night passed peacefully.
The next day, Chen Mo announced that he would retreat again to practice.
With all the resources accumulated during this period, he walked into the secret room for practice.
Chen Mo accumulated a lot of practice resources this time, including more than 1,500 blood essence stones.
The bulk of it was still a reward from the court. In addition, when he went to the imperial mausoleum some time ago, the seniors in the Xiantian realm also gave him some cultivation resources, and a small part was a gift from his subordinates to him, his superior.
As for the mirage spirit, there were not many, only twenty or thirty pieces.
In addition, the seniors in the Xiantian realm also gave him a lot of elixirs for practicing true qi.
It was a bit of a waste to use these things to charge the Transformation Pearl, but he could use them for his future cultivation.
In addition, although he was not specifically responsible for the previous seizure of the property of the King of Pingxi and the officials of all sizes, someone would definitely share the income from the seizure with him.
Because this matter was led by him, if he didn't take it, none of the officials of all sizes would dare to take it.
However, this income will have to wait for a while before it is delivered. Seizing property is a rather tedious task. The assets of the King of Pingxi and those officials of all sizes are scattered all over the world, and it will take time to slowly collect and organize them.
These things are currently being done by officials of all sizes, and Chen Mo just needs to wait for the profit.
Taking out the futon from the storage ring, Chen Mo sat cross-legged.
He skillfully took out the blood essence stones one by one, and continuously refined the blood and qi in them.
Finally, after consuming 650 blood essence stones, the Transformation Pearl was finally fully charged again.
Chen Mo's mind was immersed in oneness, and he gradually adjusted his own state.
As the Transformation Pearl was activated, the surging blood and qi continued to flow out of it, like a blood and qi fountain rising to the sky.
The blood and qi around Chen Mo was like a wolf smoke, rushing up to a height of more than ten feet.
He could sense that this transformation was somewhat different from the previous ones. The blood and qi did not directly merge into his body, but was constantly washing his body and slowly merging into his body.
In this continuous washing process, the body further showed its magical power.
Red treasure light bloomed, countless blood-colored lines intertwined in his body, and there were also some golden light, blooming with these blood-colored treasure lights.
As his strength continued to rise, Chen Mo guided the boundless blood and qi into the mysterious acupoints, and then attacked his eyes.
In this realm, warriors can only open the nine divine treasures to complete their practice.
Except for the mysterious acupoints, the opening of the other eight divine treasures is entirely up to the warriors themselves.
Chen Mo decided to open the divine treasures of both eyes next. After opening the divine eyes and practicing to the extreme, warriors can see the nine heavens and the nine underworlds.
The divine eyes can see all the opportunities of heaven and earth.
Of course, this is a level that can only be achieved after practicing to the extreme, and he is far from doing it now.
But even if it is just a preliminary opening, it can also have many strange effects.
It can observe the luck, the changes in the feng shui of heaven and earth, and the flow of the earth veins, and break the illusion of evil.
It can also see the opportunities of heaven and earth flowing between heaven and earth, so that it can be better absorbed and break through the three levels of innate faster.
In addition, if the eyes are sublimated into divine treasures, they can also see a clearer world. This is of course risky, but judging from the previous mirage, there will also be opportunities.
Endless blood and qi flowed into his eyes, and Chen Mo only felt that his eyes were wrapped in red light.
These lights began to merge into his eyes, causing them to sublimate and transform.
The furnace of heaven and earth was running, and the mighty power of heaven and earth continued to flow into his body, helping him to sublimate and transform.
Seeing this, the entire inner city and even the palace city were shaking. Many acquired strong men clearly remembered that Chen Mo had just broken through not long ago, so why did he suddenly break through again now?
This is a bit unreasonable!
Chen Mo knew nothing about the outside world. Now there was a little divine light blooming between his eyes, and mysterious divine patterns flowed in them.
Looking at the world in front of him again, he could see many differences.
There was a dormant blue dragon above the palace city, and this blue dragon was closely connected with the emperor's magic sword in his hand, and countless threads were intertwined between the two.
As long as Chen Mo is willing, he can use the Heavenly Son Sword to borrow the power of the blue dragon to bless his body at any time.
The inner city is connected to the palace city, and countless formations teach the direction of the Feng Shui veins, turning this place into a paradise.
The power of heaven and earth between heaven and earth, due to its different internal laws, the opportunities of heaven and earth displayed outside are also different.
Chen Mo certainly cannot see through these laws of heaven and earth now, but he can roughly divide them into several attributes according to the external manifestation.
What he can see now is nothing more than the five elements of yin and yang. If he is more detailed, it is far beyond his current eyes.
Previously, he swallowed the opportunities of heaven and earth, mainly relying on his own true qi perception.
And now he can directly see the opportunities of heaven and earth, which allows him to absorb more carefully, so as to break through to the next realm.
This rebirth is over.
In addition to opening up the two eyes, Chen Mo's blood and qi power has also improved.
The blood and qi power of the physical foundation has increased by more than 5,300 kilograms, and the improvement obtained from the practice is more than 15,000.
At present, the blood and qi power in his body is more than 102,000 kilograms.
When Chen Mo fully stimulates his blood and qi, he can exert 2 million kilograms of strength in one full attack.
In addition to the increase in strength, his mysterious orifice and divine storage are also further improved during this transformation.
The speed of absorbing and refining the power of heaven and earth is about 20% higher than before.
After the transformation, Chen Mo began to refine the remaining blood stone and mirage spirit.
After this transformation, if he wants to transform again, he will need more cultivation resources.
Even so, the remaining blood stone and mirage spirit still charge more than 60% of the energy of the Transformation Pearl.
At this rate, he only needs to wait for a while before he can start the next transformation.
Feeling the abundant power of heaven and earth entering his body, Chen Mo took out another pill and swallowed it to start practicing true qi, ready to make a concerted effort to see if he can break through the three levels of the innate realm.
