This matter had been pressing deep in Chu Mo's heart for many years.

Towards the later stages, he almost never mentioned it to anyone, but this did not mean he had forgotten.

How could he possibly forget that bone-deep hatred and the deep love for his family members? And how dare he forget?

The first thing to do was to visit the Buddhist sect and have his family listen to the sutras there. This matter admitted no failure—it must succeed!

Even if one day he were to leave the Immortal Realm and ascend to the Heavenly Realm, he could not take this pearl with him. Only when he truly embarked on the path of the supreme… would he come back to retrieve this pearl.

Therefore, he had to owe a huge karmic debt to the Buddhist sect!

And all this… had a prerequisite, that the Buddhist sect must first agree to it.

Otherwise, even if he wanted to owe this karmic debt to the Buddhist sect, he probably wouldn't have the chance.

Regarding the Buddhist sect, Chu Mo had always known very little. He only knew that the Buddhist sect was an ancient sect existing since ancient times when the world was not yet divided into the Four Realms of Heavenly Immortals and Spirit People, but was a complete big world. At that time, the Buddhist sect already existed!

This super ancient sect had always been very low-profile, and its disciples were seldom seen walking in the world.

But one thing was certain, even the major clans in the Heavenly Realm rarely provoked the Buddhist sect, and it was said that the holy land of the Buddhist sect was terrifyingly powerful, that even an Emperor who came would have to retreat in defeat!

In such a situation, Chu Mo dared not act rashly.

Although he was very brave, enough to be called recklessly bold, he could not be presumptuous everywhere. Especially since this matter was related to the life and death of his loved ones.

"However, I must accomplish this matter!" Chu Mo's eyes sparkled with a resolute light.

The second thing was to find his master, Xiaoyu, and the Big Rooster, and the others.

But even if he found them, Chu Mo did not want to stay too close to them, because too many people targeted him now. This situation would probably continue until the day he stepped into the Emperor Realm. According to Chu Mo's estimation, even if he successfully became an Emperor, he probably would not have peace.

Because as his cultivation continued to improve, the secrets he carried would increasingly attract the attention of higher realms.

These things were fundamentally why Chu Mo could improve so quickly, but at the same time… they were also the biggest burden on him!

Chu Mo was increasingly feeling that his possession of so many divine artifacts must be directly related to his origins. But until today, he had managed to obtain only two clues.

One was in the Illusionary God Realm, but the Realm Spirit refused to tell him; the other was in the Ruins of Oblivion, and the Great Skeleton similarly did not tell him!

Having so many heaven-defying things on him gave Chu Mo a sensation of cheating, but it also gave him a pressure that was hard for ordinary people to imagine!

It's too hateful!

If he didn't have so many things on him, if he was just an ordinary cultivator, who would pay attention to him?

All this seemed to have started the moment he entered the Illusionary God Realm, and from that moment, he was no longer in control of himself.

Chu Mo was filled with gratitude towards the Realm Spirit, but sometimes, he also felt helpless.

This also meant one thing: if you want to shine brightly, you must make yourself shine brighter, illuminating all darkness. Because all darkness is your enemy!

Chu Mo sighed lightly, and along the ancient road, he unfolded his divine ability, 'Shrinking Ground into Inches,' moving like a streak of light, quickly traversing a great distance.

Under the setting sun, his figure was solitary yet upright.

Although the Primordial Infant had not yet transformed into spirit, Chu Mo could already feel his difference.

The most obvious change upon entering the Spirit Refining period was that the cultivation techniques transitioned from spells… little by little into divine abilities.

For ordinary cultivators, particularly those in the Spirit Realm, their cultivation techniques could only exhibit spells and not divine abilities. Thus, upon entering the Spirit Refining period and ascending to the Immortal Realm, they had to obtain divine abilities through their own efforts, whether by entering a sect, joining a faction, or seizing by force… In short, they needed to acquire divine techniques in order to further enhance their power.

But Chu Mo did not have this trouble, as all the techniques he cultivated were valid all the way to the Supreme Realm without needing to change.

From this point, his starting point was actually much, much higher than countless cultivators.

Even now, many people believed that Chu Mo originated from the Mortal Realm, simply lucky to have awakened a top-tier bloodline, thus catching the attention of the Realm Spirit of the Illusionary God Realm and, consequently, rising to prominence.

Yet, very few knew that even without the Illusionary God Realm and the Realm Spirit, the things Chu Mo possessed... were enough to drive any Heavenly Realm bigwig crazy.

The techniques transformed into divine abilities, and the absorbed Heaven and Earth essence energy was no longer spirit energy but Immortal Energy—far richer by many times!

At the same time, the consumption of casting divine abilities was considerably enormous. When Chu Mo used those Supreme Arts in the Spirit Realm, the power was limited, and so was the consumption. But in the Immortal Realm, when he used the same Supreme Arts again, the power doubled, and the consumption... also doubled!

As he walked, he kept an eye on his surroundings.

This ancient road was very quiet and very long; Chu Mo did not know where it eventually led.

The best course of action now was to quickly find a human town, as that would allow him to determine the direction to the Buddhist sect.

Rustle... Rustle.

Suddenly, a light noise reached Chu Mo's ears.

This sound, somewhat similar to the slithering of a serpent-like creature, was something ordinary people couldn't hear at all, and even Chu Mo could barely catch it.

Instantly, he became alert.

This was no longer the Spirit Realm; this was the Immortal Realm, a world far superior to the Spirit Realm.

The non-human creatures in this world were many times stronger than those in the Spirit Realm, especially those in the Immortal Realm with bloodlines that could enter the Illusionary God Realm.

Chu Mo did not want to provoke trouble, so he instinctively quickened his pace.

Here, as he used the Illusory Wind Steps and enacted the divine ability "Shrinking Ground into Inches," his speed instantly increased!

Rustle.

Rustle.

Yet, that sound seemed to continually follow by his side.

This made Chu Mo's alertness reach its peak, and then, he stopped. Then... he directly expanded his divine sense, covering all directions.

Hiss!

As Chu Mo's divine sense extended farther, he finally sensed a creature, located less than three hundred miles to his left, seemingly moving underground. However, the size of this being made Chu Mo involuntarily gasp in shock.

This creature was thousands of zhang long!

As Chu Mo halted, the creature also stopped.

The moment Chu Mo's divine sense covered its body, the creature emitted an immensely terrifying aura of death!

Boom!

Chu Mo felt as if his divine sense was brutally slashed with a knife, causing turmoil throughout his entire spirit sea.

Chu Mo's face twisted in pain—it was excruciating!

Even he was finding the sensation almost unbearable.

Then, the next instant, Chu Mo sprinted wildly!

Suddenly, a red shadow burst forth from the ground three hundred miles to Chu Mo's left.

Like an enormously gigantic serpent, it lunged directly at Chu Mo.
