Quresh unwilling to start setting up the array, anticipating possible enemies in the future.
And Chen Mo took this opportunity to properly refine the ice dragon crystal core he had just obtained.
The ice dragon's power is extremely strong, and similarly, the energy contained within the crystal core is limitless. After complete refinement, it would be no problem for him to breakthrough to a third level.
As Chen Mo took a few steps down the mountain, he glanced around from afar before turning towards the autumn zone.
Compared to the cold of the winter zone, he prefers the climate of the autumn zone.
Finding a quiet place, Chen Mo sat cross-legged and began to refine the ice dragon crystal core in a systematic manner.
With his eyes slightly closed, he was unaware of how much time had passed, but the surroundings began to tremble, indicating a fight.
However, Chen Mo did not rush to watch the commotion; he continued with the refining.
After several waves of combat fluctuations, Chen Mo finally opened his eyes slowly.
"Peak of the fourth level"
Chen Mo twirled the partially refined ice dragon crystal core in his hand, and casually stuffed it into the space ring, "That's enough for now. It's time to break through to the third level next. I can't afford to take that critical step at this moment; I must wait until I get my breaking adversity pill."
Breaking adversity pill is currently the most needed pill by Chen Mo, which can help him break through to the third level.
But it is not only the breaking adversity pill that can help Chen Mo breakthrough to the third level, but it is only the breaking adversity pill that can give him the initiative.
Since his revival, Chen Mo has increasingly felt that everything he does is being controlled by others. Although it has always managed to steer him clear of danger, this is not a good thing.
This also proves that his life and death have already been controlled by others.
He was like a piece on the chessboard, always at the mercy of others…
Chen Mo stood up, raised his eyes, and looked afar at the distant battle, which should be Chu Ruomeng fighting with other martial arts experts.
Chen Mo is not worried about Chu Ruomeng not being able to beat them. After all, the Yuan Wu of that level is no match for him, and among the remaining twelve caverns in this secret realm, there are only high-level experts.
These people, no matter how powerful they are, are not as strong as a Yuan Wu of the first level or an Ice Dragon.
Just as he was thinking of going to watch the commotion, suddenly, Chen Mo saw a figure walking faster than he was.
What he saw was a person clad in elegant robes, with half of his beautiful face exposed, while the other half was covered by a half-white mask, covering his face.
The woman exudes a sinister aura, so she must be a master of the use of poison.
However, what is worth Chen Mo's attention the most is that the woman is carrying a person in her hand, clad in a black long robe, with disheveled and messy black hair freely scattered, covering half of her face.
And the exposed part of her face was full of scars and swelling up.
To be precise, she had been beaten to a point where even her mother wouldn't recognize her.
However, the figure of the woman being carried and her clothing made Chen Mo feel familiar. Suddenly, as if he had remembered something, he loudly shouted, "Stop!"
Ignoring him, the woman continued to advance. Without hesitation, Chen Mo drew his sword and slashed out a blood-colored sword aura that pounced fiercely.
The person wearing the half-mask also stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Chen Mo, her eyebrows and eyes betraying a hint of anger.
"Who are you, and why do you want to attack me?"
Muran raised an eyebrow and coldly sized up Chen Mo, feeling somewhat familiar.
That's right, he seems to be one of the people sent by the Poison Cave.
Chen Mo ignored Mu Qingyue's question and looked down at the woman she was carrying with a furrowed brow, "Mo Qiuge, is that you?"
Upon hearing Chen Mo's question, the black-robed woman she was carrying blinked back to consciousness. Her swollen face moved slightly as she looked up at Chen Mo, her eyes filling with a bit of surprise, followed by concern.
"Humph, I knew it, you've come for this little slut."
Mu Qingyue couldn't help but snort coldly. Before entering the secret realm, she had already noticed Chen Mo and Xiaodouting, who were among the representatives of the Poison Cave.
As for Mu Qiuge, she had also seen them following by chance. At that time, she was so angry that she wanted to go directly to her and settle the score, but she was stopped.
After all, Mu Qiuge was standing on the side of the Poison Cave at that time.
Considering the bigger picture, she swallowed her anger.
Now that she is within this secret realm, facing only solitary individuals from the Poison Cave, there is no longer a need for her to be hesitant. She can confront and defeat each one directly.
"Shut up your filthy mouth, you are the slut, release her!"
Chen Mo raised his giant sword, coldly speaking.
Mu Qingyue couldn't help but snort coldly, looking down at Mu Qiuge with a smile. "I never thought that in this world, someone would be willing to fight to the death for you, the slut. Your looks aren't much, but you have great people skills; wherever you go, there are always people who like you."
"Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many people in the cave who like to play with you. Even I was deceived by your innocent appearance."
"However, it's quite unfortunate that anyone who gets close to you doesn't have a good outcome. My fellow students are, I am, and he must be as well."
Mu Qingyue narrowed her eyes, laughing coldly.
Mu Qiuge's pupils shrank abruptly, and her eyes were filled with panic and unease.
Chen Mo furrowed his brow slightly, "What do you mean by that?"
"Oh? You don't know?"
Mu Qingyue seemed to have discovered something interesting and kept smiling. When she looked down at Mu Qiuge, her eyes were full of teasing.
"Apparently, this little slut is quite smart. She didn't mention these things to the people close to her. Of course, if she had mentioned it to others, how could she have made new friends? Fine, if you want to know, I'll tell you."
"No, don't say it, don't say it. I'll go back with you, please, don't tell him."
Mu Qiuge immediately changed her expression, kneeling down and begging desperately.
Seeing this scene, Mu Qingyue's expression flickered, and she no longer had the same aggressive demeanor as before. Instead, there was a hint of sympathy in her eyes.
"Is it because of your face?"
Right in this brief silence, Chen Mo suddenly spoke up.
After speaking, both Mu Qiuge and Mu Qingyue stared at Chen Mo in disbelief.
This matter was a secret between them, known only to those within the cave, and would never be known by outsiders.
"How did you……"
Mu Qingyue was astonished and opened her mouth, then looked down at Mu Qiuge. However, she saw the latter quickly shaking her head and then curiously staring at Chen Mo.
"These... I have never told anyone about these things, not even to the Lord."
These events were painful memories for Mu Qiuge, so she buried them deeply in her heart and never mentioned them to anyone, not even Liu Wuxin, who had initially accepted her and taken her in.
But Mu Qiuge was curious about how Chen Mo came to know about these things.
"Since then, how did you come to know about this?"
Mu Qingyue furrowed her brow slightly and her expression became somewhat unpleasant.
"How I came to know about it, I naturally can't tell you. But let me tell you this, your hatred for Qiuge is all because of that face of yours; it's been disfigured. Don't be surprised, I do know quite a few famous physicians. If you want to restore your appearance, it's not impossible."
At this moment, Chen Mo couldn't help but recall Chu Ruoli, who had treated the Zhao siblings.
Although Chen Mo didn't know if Chu Ruoli had experience in restoring beauty for disfigured people, but based on her outstanding medical skills, it should not be difficult.
Aside from Chu Ruoli who is far away in Yongzhou, there are also those close by, such as Fu Bo who stays in Youzhou.
Three hundred years ago, Su Yumo was disfigured and was treated by him. Although he didn't see the final result, the process was quite clear.
Moreover, Chen Mo also learned from Fu Bo that the result was complete recovery.
"Really?"
After hearing Chen Mo's words, Mu Qingyue's face finally showed a rare smile. However, it was quickly suppressed by her.
"Even if you can help me restore my appearance, the people that this slut has killed will never come back to life."
