Chapter Four Hundred and Ninety Seven – Activation of the Shen Temple
It was impossible to describe the shock Zuo Mo was feeling.
The enormous rock hole that seemed to have been carved with a knife was completely smooth. It surpassed everything that Zuo Mo knew. Before this, Zuo Mo had felt that he was able to understand this power yet he found that its profoundness was much deeper and advanced than he had imagined.
At this time, Zuo Mo suddenly felt his body shake. Pia, something inside his body seemed to explode.
A familiar feeling returned to his body.
Zuo Mo’s eyes widened and an expression of disbelief came onto his face.
The exhaustion in his body swept away. He dazedly raised his arm. The familiar Great Day mo physique had returned to his body. His mind moved. As well, his consciousness and ling power had returned to normal.
Was it … …
A daring idea rose in his mind.
The shock on Zuo Mo’s face uncontrollably turned to joy.
Excited, Zuo Mo instantly started to experiment. He quickly proved what he had guessed. For some unknown reason, his shen power could revert back to the three powers and the three powers could merge to become shen power!
What was even more joyous was that he could control this change!
He could not resist and roared with laughter!
The laughter echoed in the cave and even disturbed the hardship guards that were standing guard outside. However, they did not rashly charge in. Even though they did not know what was making Daren so happy, but it definitely was something good.
When he had achieved shen power before, Zuo Mo had not been this happy. Shen power was unrivaled in its power, but he was more familiar with the three powers, and could not help but feel disappointed at their loss.
Now that he discovered that the three powers and shen power could freely transform into each other, the last bit of hesitation disappeared. If he wanted to use shen power, he would use shen power, if he wanted to use the three powers, he would use the three powers.
However, the three powers that had been deconstructed wereslightly changed. His mo physique and consciousness had decreased with different magnitudes, especially his mo physique which had weakened the most. The opposite had happened with his ling power which had increased greatly.
The three powers had became equal.
This change did not disappoint Zuo Mo. Rather he felt overjoyed. The problem of his ling power was one of main the problems he had had a headache about. He was living in the xiuzhe world. If he used the mo physique and yao arts every day, and someone with good eyes detected it, then it would be great trouble!
Ling power was good, it was safe! As for spells he could use, that wasn’t a problem. They had won many spells over the course of their battles. As a last resort, he could even go to Pu Yao and nag and bother him, he would eventually get one.
He felt the thick ling power inside his body. He was just a line away from jindan, and the feeling of clarity of his mind made him greatly intoxicated.
Thinking about the shen power of just now, he felt that the three powers were more enjoyable.
However, now with shen power, he had another ultimate technique to protect himself.
Who would scorn themselves for having more techniques?
Even more, it was a shen technique!
Zuo Mo seemed to have been struck dizzy by jingshi that fell from the sky.
After experiencing for a while, Zuo Mo once again went back into his cultivation. He had to familiarize himself with the transformation between the three powers and shen power. This was a killing move, an ultimate move!
As he practiced, he suddenly pondered a question.
When shen power turned to the three powers, the three powers that were obtained were extremely equal. Since that was the case, couldn’t he cultivate ling power through cultivating the mo physique?
Once this daring idea jumped into his mind, he became alert.
If he could really do it … … then it really was … …
Very profitable!
The three powers were each a system unto themselves and were strongly separated. There were many reasons that Zuo Mo’s ling power was a shortcoming, Pu Yao’s and Wei’s influences caused Zuo Mo to cultivate yao arts and the mo physique but the most important cause was that his talent at cultivating ling power was far less than his talent in the mo physique and yao arts.
Wei Sheng was the opposite and was a genius at cultivating ling power.
The three powers could merge and form shen power, the shen power could transform and divide equally into the three powers.
Didn’t that mean that Zuo Mo did not have any cultivation shortcomings?
Zuo Mo tried it and as expected, his idea was realized! However, he quickly calmed down. This matter had advantages and disadvantages.
Even though he did not have any cultivation shortcomings, but if he wanted to improve the same amount as other people, the gains he needed to advance in cultivating was three times that of other people.
This wasn’t an insignificant cultivation amount!
Zuo Mo was full of motivation. He was frightened by the triple amount of cultivation. He dreamed about all three of his powers progressing together, stepping on all of his enemies, Zuo Mo felt his body heat up and wanted to start cultivating immediately.
However, he didn’t get swept up in the moment andkept some of his intelligence. Cultivation was a long-term effort and there was an enormous treasure hoard waiting for him.
For Zuo Mo, being satisfied was a very simple yet difficult task.
He decided to explore the Sun Shen Temple.
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he entered the state of cultivation and only stood up again when he had recovered to his best state.
Facing the rock wall, the three powers in his body merged into shen power. His head rang, as though there was a chord plucked right next to his ear. That strange “space shield” returned to his body.
The rock wall that had been blank suddenly became filled with strange characters that were like earthworms.
Zuo Mo didn’t recognize any of them.
But that was alright. He reached out an arm and his palm placed on the rock wall.
The golden earthworm characters on the rock wall suddenly lit up. The black and dense rock wall became clear, and Zuo Mo unhesitatingly stepped in.
As Zuo Mo passed through the transparent rock wall, the rock wall resumed its previous appearance.
Passing through the rock wall, Zuo Mo was frightened by the scene in front of him.
He was situated in a stone corridor. The corridor was very large and about six to seven zhang wide. The height was even more astonishing, about twenty zhang tall. Exquisite carvings could be seen on the stone walls on both sides. Even after tens of thousands of years, there were still many carvings that were undamaged. Among the carvings, the most commonly seen were depictions of the sun.
These sun carvings released warm light and illuminated the corridor as though it was under direct sunlight.
The enormous stone slabs showed weathering in many places due to the passage of time.
But what attracted Zuo Mo’s attention was that there were armored soldiers standing along the two sides of the corridor. These armored soldiers wore heavy armor as they stood with their battle-axes. Not far away were many pieces of damaged armor and there were some bones next to the armor.
These soldiers must have been the guards for the Sun Shen Temple. The warriors that were standing guard would have been in this position before they were dead.
Zuo Mo did not worry about these people. Aftertens of thousands years, they were completely dead.
As expected, when Zuo Mo passed by these armored soldiers, they were motionless.
He looked painfully at the damaged armor that was scattered on the floor. He didn’t know what the armor was made from. A portion of them had weathered after thousands of years but they were mostly preserved.
These were not ordinary objects!
However, Zuo Mo remembered what Big Brother Qing Lin told him and did not touch the armored warriors.
The corridor was silent and without a sound. Even though Zuo Mo was daring, he was unconfident and regretted that he had not brought people with him.
A ruckus suddenly came from behind him.
Zuo Mo jumped in fright and hurriedly turned around. He found that a rock slab from the wall had fallen down, smashed to the ground and caused a cloud of dust to rise.
After this false alarm, Zuo Mo hurriedly gathered his mind and forced himself to depart for the inner parts of the shen temple.
