“Ah~ Your chicken feet~~ are showing~~”
“I was referring to the claws of a roc! No, wait… why am I showing my true form?”
“Where did this cat-girl come from?”
“I just have the bloodline of Qiongqi!”
“Who urinated here?”
In front of the Great Hall of the Qingyuan Sect, there was chaos among the Southern Border’s Monster Clan, breaking the silence. Everyone looked towards them; these self-proclaimed martial artists with profound skills in mimicry, were now each experiencing different transformations at varying rates.
Those below the Fourth Realm directly revealed their original forms.
The Fifth Realm showed half of their true forms, such as Wu Qing.
No wonder Murong Feng became even more excited after realizing she was part of the Monster Clan…
Shang Qin Qing, at the Sixth Realm, equivalent to the Human Race’s Law Body Realm, where all divine phenomena return to her, did not undergo any changes.
Most of the Monster Clans present were clearly not at the Sixth Realm.
Thus, the vast Qingyuan Sect instantly filled with an eerie aura, causing those who didn’t understand to mistakenly think the Monster Clan had infiltrated.
Many martial artists subconsciously drew their weapons.
The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.
Shang Wencang said, “A few of you practicing mimicry martial arts are probably moved by Li Mo’s breakthrough, and wish to verify your studies. It’s quite reasonable that you transform into monsters.”
“This move, Young Hero Li also knows; it’s harmless.”
King of South Border intervened to ease the situation.
Neither the government nor the host of the Qingyuan Sect had anything to say.
“Cough, I’m also verifying my martial arts.” Elder Xu of Sword City waved his sword and then put it away.
The misunderstanding was resolved.
The atmosphere returned to harmony as everyone realized the true cause.
It was Li Mo’s Inner Scene, that red giant.
Wherever the red reached, all laws were void, and all divine phenomena returned to the mundane, leaving only the power of qi and bl**d within.
Even the Fifth Realm’s inner scene connecting the inner and outer worlds could not escape this, though relatively less so.
Gazing at the flowing lava, everyone’s faces turned red, their expressions extraordinary.
What did this mean?
For those below the Sixth Realm, apart from relying on physical strength, any flashy techniques would be ineffective against someone like Li Mo with such an Inner Scene.
Compared to physical strength…
Everyone couldn’t help but recall Li Mo tearing apart the Demon Summoning Ancestral God, the blazing bl**d smoke soaring to the sky, causing chills down their spines.
“The Sect Leader of the Dipper Gate once had the surname Li; I feel there might be some connection with Young Hero Li.”
The Sect Leader of the Dipper Gate spoke seriously.
“We never had a Sect Leader surnamed Li before, right?”
“I say there is, there is.”
“But we’ve never seen a tablet for him in the ancestral hall…”
“Find a piece and change it.”
“…That makes sense.”
The people of the Dipper Gate felt there was no problem with this.
“The Sword Plate of the Gang Sword Heroes is well-deserved.”
Elder Xu folded his arms behind his back, speaking calmly.
If one ignores his slightly trembling leg, he still appeared quite calm.
“Old Xu, weren’t you questioning Young Hero Li?”
Another elder mimicked Elder Xu’s manner and tone: “Then tell me, what kind of Sword Plate is Li Mo? He doesn’t count!”
Elder Xu gritted his teeth in anger: “That’s slander! I swear I never said such words. If I did, I’d take your surname!”
Seeing how resolute Elder Xu was, the other elder momentarily doubted he had misheard.
Hmm?
Wait, Elder Xu and he are from the same clan, and they share the same surname!
“This must be the rising sun, shining brightly.”
“Mmm…”
Shang Qin Qing and Qin Yuzhi sighed simultaneously, recalling distant memories long buried.
Each emperor of the Da Shang dynasty was like a golden sun, sitting atop the Bronze Divine Tree, illuminating the world and watching over all living beings.
Though it may not be the same person.
Every time an emperor of the Da Shang ascended the tree, it was like the rising sun.

“Still, there are slight differences.”
Thinking about it, Qin Yuzhi shook her head again: “He isn’t so noble or imposing, nor is he so glaring.”
“Yeah, he isn’t as handsome as Little Li now!”
Shang Qin Qing smiled, pulling out a handful of seeds.
Little Li wasn’t bad to begin with.
Plus, his current appearance added a gentle, composed, and resolute demeanor. Anyone seeing him would deeply engrave this image in their hearts, unable to forget it.
Even if he didn’t look like this, his radiant spirit would automatically add special effects…
“Truly handsome.”
Listening to the continuous sound of cracking seeds, Qin Yuzhi nodded vigorously, drawing a sharp breath: “Do you think Little Ice Girl will see this when she’s under the Qingyuan Sect?”
“Hiss…”
Shang Qin Qing suddenly became very excited, almost unable to catch her breath.
Everyone could see that Little Ice Girl was already quite something.
This time, it wouldn’t be enough to just stir things up, right?
—
Under the Qingyuan Sect, in front of the main tomb of the imperial mausoleum.
“Thankfully, I told my precious disciple long ago that even if he surpasses me, he should still call me Master.”
Shang Wu let out a long sigh of relief, raising her gourd and drinking deeply:
“Little Ice Girl, this time I really went all out. What should I ask him for to drink… Little Ice Girl?”
She spoke for a while, then turned her head and noticed Ying Bing lifting her head, looking coldly at the intertwined Inner Scene.
Hmm… if not for her slightly opened lips and bright yet hazy eyes.
Cold Fairy remained as cool and collected as ever.
“…”
Shang Wu scratched her head, checking if the Life Wheel Array had been damaged.
“My Inner Scene is formed by the power of all beings and the national fortune of Da Shang. It is called All Mortal!”
Li Mo and the red giant spoke in unison.
Then, the projection of the Inner World slowly dissipated.
Coming out, he saw that the Ice Chunk was still there, crouching with her legs hugged, her chin resting on her knees. Her face, without makeup, had a faint blush, her lips pressed together as she looked over, her eyes lost in thought.
Perhaps even she didn’t know what she was thinking.
“Ice Chunk.”
“…Huh?” Ying Bing snapped out of her thoughts.
Every time Li Mo saw her like this, he felt an inexplicable contrast, especially this time. But he tried hard to suppress the smile on his face:
“Why are you squatting here?”
“After several days without rest, standing is tiring.”
The Cold Fairy, who had broken through to the Fourth Realm before him, spoke calmly.
“Then why is your face red? Are you sick?” Li Mo examined her, seriously touching her forehead.
“I’m not…”
“Then why?”
“Your Inner Scene is too red, it reflected on me for a long time, leaving a red mark.”
“?”
Li Mo fell silent for a moment, a question mark appearing above his head.
What was the Ice Chunk saying? He recognized the words, but didn’t understand their meaning.
“Now I feel a bit strange, my mind is chaotic… I don’t know what I’m saying myself,” Ying Bing said, half of her face buried in her crossed arms, revealing only a soft gaze.
“Ice Chunk, if you’re sick, you shouldn’t be able to walk.”
“That’s not…”
“Should I carry you up?”
This was what Li Mo most wanted to do after his breakthrough.
“Okay.”
The Cold Fairy still had a hard exterior.
But since she had her own thoughts… not completely hard.
