Chapter Five Hundred and Ninety Eight – Highest Priority Order
When Zuo Mo woke up, he felt unspeakably comfortable, refreshed and rid of all exhaustion.
“Daren!” Shu Long who had been waiting at the side had a joyous expression.
Zuo Mo smiled. When his gaze landed on A Gui sitting at the side, he showed surprise. He grabbed A Gui’s hand and his brow furrowed. The shen power inside A Gui’s body had multiplied!
What had happened?
An increase in shen power was good for other people, but for A Gui, it would only restrain her soul even more tightly! Damn it! What had happened? Zuo Mo’s expression instantly became terrible. He wanted more than ever for the shen power inside A Gui’s body to completely disappear in exchange for her soul’s freedom. The iciness of being restrained was the cruelest torture in the world!
“What happened last night?” Zuo Mo asked in a deep voice.
Shu Long was preparing to speak when a serene voice came from behind him. “Shen power breathing.”
It was Ceng Lian’er. Zuo Mo stilled. “Shen power breathing? What is that?”
“Every person’s body is like a cup of water and shen power is like the salt in the water. When your shen power cultivation reaches a certain level, your body and your shen power would reach an equilibrium and then shen power breathing will occur. That means the your body’s potential is unlocked. You achieved shen power breathing last night.”
Zuo Mo was confused but he knew that Ceng Lian’er knew much more about shen power than he did. After pondering it for a while, he shook his head and said, “I do feel that I’ve recovered my energy, but I don’t detect any change in my body.”
“You just opened the lock, you still need to push open the door,” Ceng Lian’er said serenely.
“What does this have to do with the shen power inside A Gui’s body?” Zuo Mo asked.
A strange light flashed though Ceng Lian’er’s eyes. She glanced at Zuo Mo and said, “I do not know, but I know that she definitely has a connection to you achieving shen power breathing last night.”
Zuo Mo’s brow creased even tighter. Suddenly, his hand was tightly gripped. It was A Gui that was holding his hand. Zuo Mo stilled and then showed joy. It had been very long since A Gui had made movements like this, since she had used her shen power outside the mist village. He turned around. A Gui’s expression was still wooden but that hand was tightly gripping his hand.
Zuo Mo was instantly put in a good mood.
“Daren, there was a strange situation at the Mo Skill Steles last night, and the three princesses have also reached Great Peace City,” Shu Long reported.
Zuo Mo was instantly distracted by the news of the three princesses and automatically dismissed the news about the Mo Skill Steles. He hurriedly asked, “They have already arrived? Remember to go ask where they are staying.”
Shu Long was slightly puzzled but he still nodded and noted it down.
Zuo Mo then asked, “How is Ye Ling doing?”
Tao Xing’s mo embryos had finally been delivered. He was fearful of being late. The transaction between Zuo Mo and Bie Han scared him half to death. As a result, Zuo Mo was put onto the list of people he would pay off for peace of mind.
Shu Long had a joyous expression again. “His mo embryo processing has been very smooth. He is cultivating. Should I call him over?”
“Do not disturb him.” Zuo Mo asked another question “Where is A Wen?”
“He, the orange and black yao, Nan Yue, and the others are all at the Mo Skill Steles.” Shu Long said, “Bie Han has been in seclusion as he and Sin Battalion are cultivating.”
Zuo Mo nodded. When he had been studying the jinzhi on Sin Battalion, he discovered that Sin Battalion could cultivate. However, the cultivation method was very strange. After he engraved the mo matrices, Bie Han also needed to adjust. For a battle general, any tiny change in the battalion was something that could be crucial to victory.
“How are you processing the mo embryos?” Zuo Mo asked.
Of the mo embryos from Tao Xing, the Day mo embryo was given to Shu Long and the Nether Shadow mo embryo to A Wen.
The other people did not have enough talent and the effects of using mo embryos would not be very good.
“I have been guarding Daren, and A Wen has been at the Mo Skill Steles these days. We did not have the time to use them.” Shu Long was slightly embarrassed.
Zuo Mo was moved and said, “Hand the administrative matters to someone else for a few days and focus on processing the mo embryo. As for A Wen, do not disturb him.” Even though processing the mo embryo could lead to a short term increase in strength, A Wen was currently enchanted with the Mo Skill Steles. Adding on the epiphanies he had, he should make great gains.
The content on the Mo Skill Steles was detailed and expansive. Once one started to study it, it would be beneficial for the rest of their life. In comparison, the mo embryo boost came fast, but it did not have long-lasting effects as studying the Mo Skill Steles.
Zuo Mo was slightly surprised that Nan Yue and the others also went to the Mo Skill Steles but he decided not to interfere in this. Stopping his thought, he also realized that while Pu Yao seemed strict with these people, he was also very attentive. He would not let them go down the wrong path.
If they were not yao, he probably would not be able to keep these mo embryos from Pu Yao.
Right now, Princess Xia had reached Great Peace City. He also had enough people. Zuo Mo’s confidence grew!
He decided to go tonight to take a look. If he could directly save Xiao Guo and Li Ying Feng, that would be the best.

Miao Jun was directing Tang Fei.
Without the Celestial Azure Essence, the possibility that he could break through to the next level was not high. Even though Azure Air Kill had allowed him to touch the doorway to understanding Domain, it had been many years Azure Air Kill was still stuck as the Azure Air Kill. He had not advanced from this level for many years.
Losing to Zuo Mo this time, he seemed to have let go of something on his mind and he became lighter. His days became easy and idle. He was the most relaxed and leisurely of all the people in the compound.
