747 The Qilin Revered by All
âIs this the first time youâve heard of this place, fellow Daoist? In that case, you must remember this legend and be careful.â
Some creatures did not recognize Lin Mo and thought that he had just been lucky enough to enter, so they told him the news out of goodwill.
This place had once been a killing field, and there were countless vengeful souls who were buried underground.
During the great battle in ancient times, the battle here had been the most intense. It seemed that the divine beast Qilin had also fought a bloody battle here. The battle had caused the heavens to collapse and the earth to crack. Countless masters had died from hatred and were buried here.
!!
Lin Mo was unable to calm down after hearing the news from these people.
What kind of war had destroyed the entire ancient era?
It was at that time that the Eastern Continent had rotted, its spiritual qi had become barren, and its Heavenly Tribulation had been concealed.
âIs there any information I can find out about the Qilin here?â
As he went deeper, he found that the life force around him was weakening, and a killing intent filled the air.
This killing intent was extremely terrifying. There was a Supreme existence that had once been buried here, and it contained boundless killing intent.
No living being could survive in this place for long, as they would be corroded by the killing intent.
âItâs a completely different environment here compared to the outside. Why?â Lin Mo muttered softly.
He couldnât stay in this place for too long. If he stayed for too long, there would be problems with his Dao Foundation, and it might even affect his soul.
But when he went deeper, he found that this environment full of killing intent was only within a small area.
The other places were full of vitality and there were living beings who were all very strong.
âSwish!â
A dense energy spread out and surrounded Lin Moâs body. This was the powerful power of destiny.
With the protection of this power, the killing intent of many evil spirits would be unable to enter their bodies.
It could even be said that Lin Mo was invulnerable at this moment, and his entire body exuded a sense of holiness.
âThe Qilin has come out of seclusion!â
Upon realizing this, Lin Mo had an idea and took the Qilin out of the system space.
As soon as she appeared, the area was filled with auspicious qi. All the living beings looked over, and some even knelt down and saluted respectfully.
âHuh? Where is this? What a strange place!â
The Qilin was full of curiosity and looked around.
She was also surprised to see a Quasi-Saint bowing to her.
When she saw the spiritual light in the eyes of these creatures, it was not the kind that was of listlessness or violence, but of their own intelligence.
âHuh?â
This made her even more curious. She scanned the area with her soul power, staring at her surroundings.
It was only when Lin Mo explained it to her that she understood and fell into deep thought.
âThis place⦠Thereâs an aura that was left behind by my mother.â
She had held her chin and pondered for a long time before finally saying this. She could also sense where her motherâs aura was.
âDo you want to go and take a look?â Lin Mo asked.
Since this matter concerned the Qilinâs mother, he felt that it was better to let Qilin make the decision.
Even though this was a mysterious place and there were some places that he couldnât wander around, he still decided that he would go with the Qilin.
âI think it would be better to ask them.â
The Qilin pointed to a place not far away, where three demonic beasts at the level of a Saint-to-be were kneeling.
They had humble attitudes, and their eyes were filled with respect.
Even though he could tell that the Qilin was only a fourth-layered Heavenly King level, he didnât dare to show any disrespect.
âMy fellow Daoists, please get up and help us clear our doubts, okay?â She looked at the three Saints-to-be demonic beasts with a smile.
However, in the face of Qilinâs words, the three demonic beasts were shocked. With fear in their eyes, they shook their heads frantically.
They could open their mouths, but they didnât dare to say a word and merely continued kneeling there.
âThis is strange. Can you understand me?â The Qilin moved closer, and Lin Mo followed carefully behind.
If anything went wrong, he would take Qilin and hide in the system space.
The expected danger did not appear. The creatures here seemed to be very friendly to the Qilin and were willing to stay by her side.
However, faced with their questions, they were unwilling to speak even if Lin Mo promised to give them divine medicine and divine pills.
âIf I tell you to speak, then you should speak. Hurry up, I wonât eat you. If you donât want to speak, then donât follow me.â
After walking for a while, the Qilin was a little annoyed and turned back to glare at a Saint-to-be demonic beast.
This was a Fire Crystal Scaled Beast. It was very powerful, and if one were to trace it back to its origins, it had some bloodline relationship with the Qilin race.
Hearing the Qilinâs words, the demonic beast immediately knelt down.
There was a look of struggle in his eyes. After hesitating for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and spoke in a low voice.
âLord auspicious beast, you may go anywhere and take anything with you. However, the Five Elements Mountain doesnât allow us to say anything elseâ¦â
This was already the limit. This was not the outermost area, so they had to follow the rules set by the Five Elements Mountain.
They were still able to talk to the living beings outside, but they couldnât say a word here.
If it wasnât for the fact that the person in front of him had the bloodline of the divine beast Qilin in its body, he would definitely not have spoken.
...
âThe rules of the Five Elements Mountain?â
Lin Mo and the Qilin were both confused.
But seeing the fear on this demonic beastâs face, they didnât ask any more questions and he turned to fly deeper into the forest.
In this way, a strange scene was formed in the Five Elements Mountain.
Lin Mo and the Qilin walked together, and behind them was a large group of envious creatures.
In their eyes, the fact that Lin Mo could walk side by side with the Qilin was an honor that they would never be able to obtain in their entire livesâ¦
âItâs my first time meeting them. Why are they worshiping me so much?â
Walking in front, the Qilin felt puzzled. Although it could be contaminated by the auspicious qi, what was the use of that little bit?
Unless she was like Lin Mo, who made her follow him all the time and was unwilling to leave, she would not be able to receive the protection of auspicious.
âPerhaps⦠Do they know your mother?â Lin Mo joked.
However, that was impossible. Even an absolute Saintâs lifespan wasnât enough to support a living creature from the ancient era to the present.
...
These living beings were only Quasi-Saints and would not have such a long lifespan.
Perhaps, the Five Elements Mountain was the mystery.
It was a pity that it had set a rule that the living beings inside were not allowed to tell the outside world any information.
âWait, it said that I can take any treasure away. What if I take their divine medicine?â
Suddenly, the Qilin stopped walking and looked into the distance.
There, a Titan Python was coiled. It was as large as a mountain and coiled around three of its peaks.
There was a lake below, and a multicolored light was emitted from it, indicating that there was a treasure being nurtured there.
Lin Moâs eyes widened in disbelief at the sightâ¦
âThatâs the Heaven-Connecting God-Attracting Lotus. There are more than a dozen of themâ¦â
Heaven-Connecting God-Attracting Lotuses of different grades had been planted on the entire lake.
The most precious one was at a Level 9 Heaven-class, wood element, and contained an endless supply of vitality.
âIt seems so, but that Titan Python doesnât seem to be easy to talk toâ¦â Lin Mo mumbled.
The deeper they went, the more powerful the creatures they encountered. There were a few demonic beasts that could not be seen clearly.
However, from the way they looked at the Titan Python, it wasnât difficult to tell that the creature standing before them was definitely a very terrifying existence.
The giant pythonâs cold eyes looked at Lin Mo, but when it saw the Qilin, its gaze gradually softened.
Just like the other demonic beasts, it recognized her as the auspicious beast White Qilin, and its eyes were filled with respect.
