Chapter 172 The Mystery of the Sea of Blood! Reunion with Mo Dao? (Subscribe)
The surging sea of blood was like a mirror, flat and smooth without any waves.
Chen Mo looked around and saw an endless ocean of blood. He used his eyesight to take a closer look. Not far away, there were people walking in the city, wilderness, and towns.
It's just that all of these people are all red, their faces can't be seen clearly, they only have human shapes, and they are all made of the water of the sea of blood.
Chen Mo knelt down, stretched out his hand to grab at his feet, and he picked up a ball of water from the sea of blood.
This feeling is very strange. No matter how you look at it, the water of the sea of blood does feel the same as blood when you touch it. However, standing on top of the blood, it does not sink any further.
Before it is taken away by yourself, the blood is like solid earth, holding it firmly.
Chen Mo could feel that the water of the Blood Sea was extremely full of blood power, but it could not be absorbed at will.
These powers of blood and energy are absolutely incompatible with oneself, and there is no way for oneself to use true energy or any other means to refine them.
Even if it is swallowed into the body, it will still escape from the body.
On the other hand, he could sense that the water of these seas of blood had been mixed with a lot of mirage power.
This is not a big deal, but I have to think of a way to see if I can absorb these powers.
In addition, we must find a way to meet the owner of the blood sea. According to King Pingxi's records, he is the real owner of this blood sea.
If you can try to trade with it, you can exchange it for the water of the sea of blood to supply your own practice.
That's also a pretty good choice.
This boundless blood energy can not only help charge the Ordinary Transformation Pearl, but more importantly, help oneself open up the divine treasure.
In the realm of divine treasures, warriors must open up the nine great divine treasures.
Chen Mo can already feel that as long as he refines enough blood, he can immediately open up the next divine treasure.
The divine treasure realm is different from the innate realm. Every time a warrior opens a divine treasure realm, he can greatly increase his combat power.
Now that Chen Mo has opened his eyes, he can not only break through illusions and observe the fate of heaven and earth, but also the changes in heaven and earth.
The most important thing is when he uses his energy and blood to inspire his own eyes to exert the power of Shenzang.
In his eyes, the movements of other warriors will instantly become much slower. In fact, it is not that the enemy is slower, but that the speed and ability of his eyes to capture information are much stronger than before.
In this state, he can see every detail of the opponent's movements and even find flaws.
This increase in combat power for warriors, especially body-refining warriors, can be said to be extremely terrifying.
In the next divine hideout, Chen Mo plans to open a double-footed divine hideout. Even if he cannot move a thousand miles in one step, he can still greatly increase his speed.
Looking at the sea of blood, Chen Mo put down the blood in his hands, and the blood merged into the sea again, leaving no trace on his hands.
"My benefactor." Wei Xia's voice suddenly sounded, looking very happy.
"I feel so comfortable outside, can I go out and have a look?" Her tone was full of expectation, which made people unable to bear to refuse.
"Okay." Chen Mo thought for a while and then said.
This place is a ruins. Even if I don't let Wei Xia show up now, I may still use her later.
Even if something is going to go wrong, it is better to have it now than to have it later when you encounter difficulties.
Wei Xia was very anxious after receiving the response. In just a flash, she came to Chen Mo.
It's just that this time the situation is a bit special. He didn't release his ghost, but he had a physical body.
Wei Xia was wearing a goose-yellow girl's dress, showing her liveliness and innocence, while Chen Mo had been observing her carefully.
It was as if she couldn't see the sea of blood around her, otherwise she wouldn't look so happy and joyful.
"Wei Xia." Chen Mo said tentatively with a smile on his face.
"My benefactor." She smiled softly, quickly reacted, and bowed to Chen Mo.
"Do you see anything different under your feet?" Chen Mo asked carefully.
"There is nothing, just dirt." There was a trace of doubt on Wei Xia's face, and he answered rather puzzled.
Chen Mo nodded slightly, already having a guess in his mind. It seemed that what Wei Xia saw was completely different from what he saw.
He was not particularly surprised by this. He had experienced this situation before when he was in Mirage.
Not to mention that the things they see are different, the world they perceive is probably completely different.
"Then do you feel anything is wrong now that you have been released from your own ghost realm?"
Chen Mo's tone was still full of doubts, and he reached out his hand and gently slid it on Wei Xia's sleeve.
She is obviously in a different state now than usual. She can actually have a physical body here without releasing the ghost realm.
But why this happened, he didn't know.
"Hey!" Wei Xia also realized that he was different, stamped his feet downwards, and squatted down to touch the soil.
She does have an entity now, which is completely different from the past.
Logically speaking, as a ghost appearing outside her own ghost realm, it is absolutely impossible for her to have a physical body.
At least with her current strength, she is still far from being able to do this.
However, the fact that she can possess a physical entity here is enough to show that this ruined environment must have its own uniqueness.
With a thought in Chen Mo's mind, his energy and blood stimulated his five senses, and the world in front of him was completely different. However, he could vaguely feel that this was not enough.
It was as if there was a thin veil in front of his eyes, making him unable to see clearly.
Without hesitation, the perception of his eyes was further stimulated, and bits of golden-red light flowed between his eyes.
The world in front of me suddenly changed, the sea of blood disappeared instantly, and there was solid and heavy land under my feet.
In early spring, everything is still sleeping, except for a few shallow grasses.
Looking further into the distance, the originally majestic blood-colored city has long been transformed into a city made of bluestone bricks, and the occasional pedestrians, cars and horses on the road are no different from the outside world.
When Chen Mo looked at these people before, he could only see blood-red patches. No matter what their appearance was, there was no difference in his eyes.
"Do you have any other special feelings now?" Chen Mo looked at Wei Xia again and asked softly.
She thought for a moment, then took a deep breath, with a look of reluctance on her face, "I feel so comfortable here, and I seem to be getting stronger as I stay here."
It seems that she is really at home here.
Chen Mo nodded slightly and explained solemnly.
"This is a ruins environment, it may be a little dangerous, but as long as you don't talk or do anything, it's not too dangerous. Just stay with me, talk less, and don't run around."
"Understood, little girls obey my benefactor's orders." Wei Xia nodded obediently with a smile on her face.
"Okay, how's your foot strength? Let's go to that big city to take a look first."
Chen Mo pointed to a city in the distance. Finding the Lord of the Blood Sea would not be an easy task.
Since there is a city here, according to King Pingxi's records, there are even administrative officials in the city, and they still think that they are under the rule of Da Gan.
Then as long as you go there and reveal your identity, you can use the power of the city to help you find the Lord of the Blood Sea.
What's more, maybe the master behind this city is the Lord of the Blood Sea. As long as he sees him, he can try to make a deal with him.
Judging from King Pingxi's records, contact with the Lord of the Blood Sea is definitely not dangerous, otherwise he would not be able to cooperate with him.
With Chen Mo's current status, he can definitely give whatever King Pingxi can give.
If you can establish cooperation with the Lord of the Blood Sea, you will definitely be able to obtain quite sufficient Qi and blood, which will be of great use whether it is used for cultivation or rebirth.
Wei Xia walked as fast as a gust of wind. Although it was still not as fast as Chen Mo, it was still comparable to most acquired warriors.
When she enters this ruins realm, she is like a fish entering the ocean. Not only can she manifest her physical form, but the strength she can display is not much different from that in her own ghost realm.
The most important thing is that according to what she said, her strength is improving all the time here. It seems that it is because of her special physique that she is able to absorb the power here.
It seems that this ruins environment should have special conditions, suitable for ghosts to survive.
Chen Mo and Wei Xia walked together very fast, and they arrived near the city in less than half an hour.
The time in the Sea of Blood is different from that in the outside world. At dusk in the outside world, the sky is bright and clear.
The two of them were running for half an hour, and the sky in the Blood Sea Ruins Realm was just the rising sun.
Chen Mo could feel the bright sun in the sky, and the sunlight shining down was very warm, no different from the outside world.
I just don’t know what it will be like at night. There are no mirages in the ruins. Will the creatures living in this world still beat the gongs and drums?
As we approached the city, there were more and more pedestrians on the official road. Farmers carrying firewood, eggs and dry goods were preparing to send these things to the city to be sold in exchange for some copper coins.
The traveling merchants, carrying all kinds of exquisite goods, jogged all the way out of the city, intending to sell these goods everywhere in exchange for some grain.
Everyone has a smile on their face, and the clothes they are wearing may be patched, but no one has a decent face.
This at least shows that they can have enough to eat here.
"My dear friend, can you lend me a few coins?" Wei Xia approached Chen Mo and asked in a low voice, a little embarrassed, while still looking at a small stall selling sesame candy not far away.
"Here, buy two more pieces and I'll try them too." Chen Mo took out twenty or thirty copper coins from his storage bag and handed them to her.
Whether it is gold, silver or copper plates, he always has some in his storage bag just in case of emergencies.
"Thank you, Lord!" Wei Xia cheered like a child, took the coin and went to buy sesame candy.
She bought a lot of candies, and the stall owner even gave her a piece of straw paper to wrap.
"I'll try it first." Chen Mo stopped her hand and picked up a piece of candy himself.
Chew and taste it carefully, it will not harm you at all, and the taste is completely consistent with the outside world, so you can swallow it with confidence.
However, after eating a little bit, he could actually notice that his qi and blood were increasing, although the amplitude was very low.
This couldn't help but make Chen Mo's eyes light up!
Originally, he was still thinking about how to draw the power of the blood sea, but now he has a method!
In this case, the things evolved in the sea of blood can be swallowed by oneself and used by one's own Qi and blood.
Although it cannot be refined with true energy and can only be swallowed directly into the abdomen, it is still much better than not being able to absorb it.
The sea of blood is like a treasure mountain. Chen Mo didn't have the means to dig it out before, but now he has found it.
Even if the speed of the operation is slower, it is still much better than nothing.
"Eat, let's go into the city quickly." Chen Mo hurriedly told Wei Xia, and then quickened his pace, preparing to enter the city to find a restaurant and have a good meal first.
Wei Xia hurriedly stuffed a piece of sesame candy into his mouth and followed Chen Mo into the city.
There are officers guarding both sides of the city gate. All traders entering the city must pay a penny entry tax.
Pedestrians like Chen Mo and Wei Xia with empty hands could just walk into the city without hesitation.
Most of the pedestrians walking on the street deliberately kept a certain distance from the two of them, because anyone could tell that the clothes they wore were made of extraordinary materials and they must come from wealthy families.
Walking into the city, there are shops on both sides of the street, including blacksmith shops, tailor shops, grain shops, etc.
There are also some open-air food stalls selling ordinary breakfast food.
Chen Mo did not stay at these food stalls and continued to walk towards the center of the city.
After walking a hundred feet, a two-story inn with three signs appeared in front of him.
There were seventeen or eighteen tables neatly arranged on the first floor of the inn, and bursts of smoke were constantly drifting from the kitchen. Chen Mo could smell the aroma of braised beef.
"Shopkeeper, what else do you have in the store? I think your beef is well braised. Cut more for me."
Chen Mo stepped into the hall and spoke to the shopkeeper who was resting at the counter.
The shopkeeper was stunned at first. He really couldn't understand why someone came to the inn to eat early in the morning, but there was no reason not to do business when he came in, so he immediately greeted him.
"Sir, how dare we sell beef casually? This meat was left by County Magistrate Mo yesterday, and we asked us to braise it today for him to eat.
There are still some vegetables left over from yesterday, as well as a roast chicken, a braised goose, and a pork elbow. If you want, I'll ask the chef to clean it up and sell it to you at a lower price."
He smiled and closed the account book that had not been settled yet.
"Okay, let's serve these first." Chen Mo nodded gently, and did not embarrass the store owner by insisting on eating beef.
"Okay!" The shopkeeper smiled and shouted softly, and hurriedly walked into the back hall to ask the chef to cook.
Chen Mo picked out a clean table and chair and sat down, looking at the pedestrians on the street.
Not long after, a few simple vegetables and roast chicken and braised goose were served on the table, and the store owner also sent a plate of chopped green onion pancakes.
Chen Mo immediately let go of his restraints and ate heartily. These foods were swallowed into his body and turned into pure blood and qi at a very fast speed and sent into the Transcendental Pearl.
The blood and qi contained in these foods are thousands of times better than ordinary foods in the outside world, and their effects are not inferior to natural treasures.
But the creatures living in this world seem to be unable to absorb them, otherwise their strength would not be so weak.
Even Wei Xia did not have much perception of this, only he could use these blood and qi for his own benefit.
Chen Mo swept the food on the table like a whirlwind, and the store owner hurriedly ordered the chef to cook the remaining vegetables quickly.
"Old Qian, is my beef stew ready!" A shout came from afar.
Chen Mo raised his eyebrows and felt that the voice was a little familiar. He turned his head and looked over. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide, and his face was full of disbelief and confusion.
Because the person who came was not someone else, but Mo Dao.
"Thirteenth brother!" Mo Dao, dressed in the robe of a county lieutenant, looked particularly excited when he saw Chen Mo at this moment.
