92: Section 92
Chu Mo couldn't help but smile slightly.
Just then.
Footsteps sounded.
Zhao Chan came over with tea.
She wore a long green dress, simple and elegant, accentuating her snow-white skin, like a secluded orchid in the snow. She came before Chu Mo and used her slender jade fingers to pour him a cup of tea.
Then she said, "Young Master, Elder Jiuling has returned."
"Please, come in quickly."
Chu Mo said.
A few days ago, when Chu Mo used the Pure Yang Dao Sword to destroy the Cangyuan Palace, he realized he couldn't capture Cangyuan Taoist, so he asked Elder Jiuling to take action.
However, after killing Cangyuan Taoist, Elder Jiuling disappeared for a few days and only returned now.
As a Dao Protector, he should protect him at every step, but his sudden departure, as Chu Mo thought, must have been for something important.
As the sound faded.
Soon.
Elder Jiuling walked in.
After the two greeted each other, Chu Mo smiled and said, "A few days ago, when we destroyed the Cangyuan Palace, I must thank Elder Jiuling for helping me kill Cangyuan Taoist!"
"This is a small matter, True Disciple Chu, there's no need to be so formal."
Elder Jiuling waved his hand, then smiled and said, "Is True Disciple curious about why I went out these past few days?"
Upon hearing this.
Chu Mo appropriately showed a hint of curiosity.
Elder Jiuling didn't keep him in suspense and directly said, "After killing Cangyuan Taoist, I found a special item on him."
As he spoke.
He placed a jade bead-like object on the stone table.
Chu Mo's gaze fell upon it, and he saw a completely dark jade bead, within which seemed to be wisps of mist flowing slowly, transforming into various wondrous scenes.
"This is..."
Chu Mo was a little surprised.
"This is a key!"
Elder Jiuling said, "These past few days, I returned to the Holy Land to consult ancient texts, and finally confirmed that this item is the legendary key to open the Void Tomb!"
Void Tomb?
Hearing this, Chu Mo's eyes immediately narrowed.
After coming out of the Profound Origin Secret Realm, Chu Mo and Ling Baishuang parted ways in the capital of the Tai'an Dynasty. Before leaving, she had increased her favorability to over 90, which unlocked Ling Baishuang's life script.
From that plot, Ling Baishuang entered the Void Tomb and ultimately died.
It is worth mentioning that.
Zhang Fan also obtained a supreme treasure in the Void Tomb and eventually stepped into the Entering Saint Realm.
And now...
A key to open the Void Tomb actually appeared here.
His mind was swirling with thoughts, and after a moment of consideration, he asked, "Elder Jiuling, where exactly is this Void Tomb?"
"I was just about to tell True Disciple Chu."
Elder Jiuling said, "The Void Tomb is an extremely mysterious place. Its opening time is uncertain; perhaps it opens once every hundred years, or perhaps once every thousand years, or even not appear for several millennia."
"But every time it opens, anyone who enters and comes out alive can gain immense benefits. Even tens of thousands of years ago, when the Void Tomb opened, an ordinary Martial Artist entered and emerged as an unparalleled Prodigy, dominating an era. He later even established a Holy Land that has been passed down to this day."
"Of course, while the Opportunity here is great, it is also fraught with danger. Every time the Void Tomb opens, countless people enter, including many top Prodigies, but only a few Martial Artists can obtain immense benefits and emerge from it."
"In simple terms, only truly exceptionally talented Prodigies can safely obtain the final reward!"
Listening to Elder Jiuling's narration, Chu Mo slowly nodded.
"So, this Void Tomb is quite interesting..."
A look of great interest appeared in his eyes.
Seeing this.
Elder Jiuling asked, "Is True Disciple Chu interested in this place?"
"Of course."
Chu Mo smiled and said, "This place has many Opportunities, and countless Prodigies gather here. It's a great chance to temper oneself, so of course, I can't miss it."
Chu Mo immediately decided to participate.
One reason is that he possesses the Golden Finger, which allows him to view others' Opportunities.
This kind of Secret Realm is the most suitable place for him to improve his strength.
Secondly.
He intends to kill Zhang Fan here!
As for whether Zhang Fan can still obtain the key to the Void Tomb after changing his fate line, Chu Mo is not worried.
He is, after all, a Son of Luck.
Even if he doesn't want it, fate will deliver the key to him.
"The Void Tomb is no small matter."
"If True Disciple Chu wishes to participate, he should mention it to the Sect Master after returning to the Holy Land."
Elder Jiuling reminded him.
"That goes without saying."
Chu Mo nodded.
Afterwards.
The two chatted for a while longer, then Elder Jiuling bid farewell and left, leaving the Void Tomb key behind when he departed.
After he left.
Chu Mo held the jade bead in his hand.
Looking at the mist-like flowing Qi inside, Chu Mo seemed to think of something, his eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a thoughtful expression.
"Void Tomb..."
He murmured, then flipped his wrist and put the item into his Storage Pouch.
"Brother, a new stone-gambling house recently opened in the city, let's go out and have some fun together!"
At this moment, Chu Rou spoke.
Upon hearing this.
Chu Mo dismissed those thoughts from his mind, looked at Chu Rou, and smiled, "Want to go out and play?"
"I mainly want to go shopping with you, Brother."
Chu Rou hugged Chu Mo's arm and whined, "Brother, just come with me!"
"Alright, I'll go with you then."
Chu Mo smiled.
He had nothing to do at the moment anyway, so it was a good Opportunity to spend some quality time with his sister.
"Yay, that's great!"
Hearing Chu Mo's reply, his sister immediately became happy.
On the other side.
In a remote small town, an unknown distance from Qingzhu County.
Zhang Fan, dressed in black with a hood covering his head, walked quickly towards the city gates.
Beside him was an old man, thin and short in appearance, with gloomy eyes, also dressed in black with a hood.
The two left the small town and followed a small path directly to a desolate forest.
After checking their surroundings, they suddenly stopped.
"Everyone who's been following for so long, aren't you going to show yourselves!"
Zhang Fan suddenly spoke, looking towards an empty direction.
As his words fell, the scene was momentarily silent.
"Not coming out?"
A fierce glint flashed in Zhang Fan's eyes: "Since that's the case, don't blame me!"
