420: How effective is this product?

"I must accelerate my Cultivation."

This thought flashed through the minds of several people simultaneously.

Amidst this peaceful atmosphere, where everyone was secretly steeling their resolve, a highly discordant sound rang out with exceptional clarity.

"Gurgle..."

It was the sound of someone swallowing, carrying the most primitive craving, as if they had seen supreme delicacies.

The sound came from Old Huang, who was gnawing on a Spiritual Plant by the spirit field not far away.

Mo Yu subconsciously looked over upon hearing the sound.

At first glance, he saw that ox with sleek, glossy fur and a sturdy build, staring at him with copper-bell-sized eyes without blinking.

Why does this ox look somewhat familiar?

A trace of doubt flashed through Mo Yu's crimson-gold vertical pupils. It seemed he had felt a similar aura before, but he couldn't quite recall it clearly for the moment.

However, before he could think it through, his second reaction made his heart jump violently. Something is wrong!

The way this ox is looking at me is wrong!

That is definitely not the look one gives a fellow Sect member or an ordinary Spirit Beast!

That gaze was filled with naked, undisguised appetite?!

It was as if it were examining a piece of top-tier divine meat that was walking around and exuding an enticing aroma!

Mo Yu's massive Qilin body stiffened almost imperceptibly.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiao Ruobai, Fang Hanyu, and the others again.

Damn it!

This familiar feeling is back!

Before his seclusion, he had experienced this subtle feeling of being targeted by invisible gazes, but he had been too immersed in the ecstasy of his Bloodline completion to investigate it further at the time.

Now, having successfully completed his Undergoing Tribulation, his spiritual perception had become even sharper!

He clearly captured that indescribable sense of evaluation in the way everyone looked at him—the same one that, despite flashing by in an instant, was of the same Origin as the ox's gaze!

Especially that Wang Xiaopang; his eyes were shining, and his act of secretly swallowing his saliva was exactly the same as that ox!

What on earth is going on with this Zizhu Peak?!

A chill inexplicably rose from the bottom of Mo Yu's heart.

The joy of having just become a Saint was diluted, and he felt an indescribable danger beneath the peaceful facade of this place.

Just as Mo Yu's scales tightened and he began to grow suspicious.

Xiao Ruobai was the first to react. He gave a light cough, instantly concealing all strangeness, and with a bright, sincere smile on his Face, he stepped forward and cupped his hands, saying:

"Mo Yu, congratulations on achieving the Saint Realm today! The Great Dao is within your reach!"

Beside the stone table, Gu Changge took in that subtle scene, his gaze finally landing on Mo Yu, who had just achieved a Breakthrough, with Qi and blood surging like a Dragon and holy light flowing around him.

He tapped his fingertips lightly on the stone table, thoughts turning in his mind.

Forget it. He has just achieved a Breakthrough and is at the peak of his potential, stabilizing his Realm. It would be inappropriate to make a move now.

On such a joyous day, it is better to let him grow a bit more.

Seeing that Gu Changge had no intention of making a move and showed no other signs, everyone immediately understood his meaning and suppressed their little ulterior motives instantly.

The atmosphere on the scene changed instantly, truly restoring the harmonious scene of joy and congratulations among Sect members.

Everyone gathered around to congratulate Mo Yu, their words filled with encouragement and expectation, as if the brief, eerie atmosphere from just a moment ago had never occurred.

Seeing that everyone had instantly returned to normal, with sincere tones and enthusiastic attitudes, Mo Yu felt as if everything just now had been his own illusion.

He couldn't help but shake his massive head, the trace of doubt in his heart lessening slightly. Perhaps it really was just that he had just completed his Undergoing Tribulation, making his spiritual perception too sensitive, and he had overthought it?

Old Huang also snorted disgruntledly, turned its head, and continued to gnaw on its Spiritual Plant.

Feeling the sincere congratulations around him, the last trace of unease in Mo Yu's heart gradually dissipated, replaced by the joy of becoming a Saint and longing for the future.

It seems I really was overthinking it.

Zizhu Peak is still very warm.

He thought to himself, beginning to immerse himself in the insights of stabilizing his new Realm.

However, just as his mind settled and his gaze inadvertently swept over that seemingly simple and honest ox by the spirit field again, he suddenly remembered!

It's him!

The Azure Sky Python Bull King!

One of the overlords of the Southern Region Demon Clan, a Saint King-level Demon King known for breaking ten thousand Laws with force and having a fiery temper!

Mo Yu's heart shook violently!

When he traveled the Southern Region in the past, he had felt from afar the earth-shaking might of this Demon King when he traveled; there could be no mistake!

Rumor had it that this Azure Sky Python Bull King had mysteriously disappeared ten years ago, hadn't he?

The Southern Region Demon Clan had been in turmoil for quite a while because of this.

How could he appear in the Eastern Region, appear in the Azure Profound Sect, and appear here on Zizhu Peak?

And looking at it, is he farming?!

A Saint King Demon King who dominated the Southern Region is actually Incarnation as an old ox here, plowing fields and farming?

But thinking of the Venerable One's miraculous methods, it seems reasonable.

At the same time, Old Huang appeared to be focusing on gnawing grass, but it was actually keenly capturing the instant realization and disbelief in Mo Yu's eyes.

Its heart suddenly "thumped."

Great, this kid recognized me after all!

Old Huang felt its old Face couldn't hold up.

Oh dear, I, the old ox, was once an overlord in the Southern Region, an existence that would make the Southern Region tremble with a stomp of my foot. Now that I've been seen by a junior in this state, where should I put my Face...

But the next second!

That's not right!

I, the old ox, am now at the Quasi-Emperor Realm!

I have long since submitted under the Venerable One and am a veteran of Zizhu Peak!

In terms of seniority and Cultivation, I am a Senior to you, a little Qilin who has just become a Saint!

So what if I'm farming? You're a mount!

Thinking this, Old Huang immediately felt comfortable, and even developed a trace of superiority.

"Fine, considering you are new here and have just achieved a Breakthrough, once your Realm stabilizes in a few days, I, as a Senior, can give you some pointers. I hope you, kid, can 'be sensible'!"

With these thoughts in its mind, a trace of imperceptible reserve and calculation belonging to a Senior expert flashed in Old Huang's copper-bell-sized eyes.

It then returned to its simple and honest ox appearance, lowered its head, and focused more intently on gnawing the tender Spiritual Plant, as if everything just now had nothing to do with it.

Mo Yu took in Old Huang's last meaningful glance, and the absurdity and faint unease that had just calmed down in his heart seemed to have a tendency to rise again.

He quickly shook his head, forcibly suppressing these distracting thoughts.

He stopped looking at the ox that made him uneasy and sank all his focus into his body, concentrating on consolidating that surging, tidal-like new power.

On top of Zizhu Peak, the brief ripples caused by Mo Yu's successful Breakthrough seemed to have completely subsided.

Everyone returned to their respective places; Spiritual Qi flowed, Dao Rhyme was abundant, and the harmonious and tranquil scene of Cultivation reappeared.

Beside the stone table, Gu Changge took in the interactions of everyone on Zizhu Peak, each with their own thoughts.

Watching everyone settle their minds and begin a new round of Cultivation, with Old Huang continuing to leisurely gnaw on the Spiritual Plant, it was a scene of order and vitality.

He nodded slightly, then sank his consciousness into the System space.

Inside the space, ten portions of world origin were floating quietly.

Gu Changge's Divine Sense, like invisible mercury, spread out silently, comprehensively covering the entire Xuanhuang Great World.

Mountains and rivers, vegetation and living beings, Sects and kingdoms, the mortal world, Secret Realms and Forbidden Grounds, the depths of the starry sky, and even the obscure Law veins above the Nine Heavens were all visible in his mind's mirror.

This world showed signs of Spiritual Qi recovery, but deep within its Origin, there still remained obvious hidden injuries and dryness.

Like a giant recovering from a serious illness, its Bloodline was flowing, but it was far from recovering the vitality of its peak period.

"Since I have nothing to do right now, let's test the effect of this item."
