    Bang-bang

    The dry lake suddenly began to shake violently, and Chen Mo's body swayed with the movement.

    Inevitably, the faces of Chen Mo and the other person also gradually grew serious.

    "This, what is going on?"

    Bian Xia felt a slight frown as she felt something seemed to be about to rise from the ground.

    At this moment, Chen Mo also noticed the unusual sensation under his feet. He reached out immediately, grabbing Feng Banxia by the side and quickly jumping away to a distance.

    Bang

    A huge roar echoed, and suddenly, a massive stone slab emerged from the ground where the two had been standing. It was about three zhang in height.

    As the stone slab rose, the body of Qiu Guang, who had been lying beside them, was now hanging off it high above.

    However, facing such shaking, he still maintained the same lifeless appearance, motionless.

    "How can there be such a thing in the bottom of this lake?"

    Chen Mo approached warily, his eyes fixed on the massive stone slab which was empty, no different from an ordinary giant stone.

    Just the appearance was somewhat similar to the stone tablet engraved with sacred scriptures.

    Chen Mo scanned up and down, failing to spot any abnormalities. At least for the moment, it was impossible to sense any danger from this stone tablet.

    "I sense a trace of energy on this stone tablet, but it's not like spiritual power..."

    Feng Banxia raised her gaze to examine the stone tablet for a moment. Suddenly, blood appeared out of nowhere on the stone tablet, and words began to appear from top to bottom.

    The characters were complex and weird, resembling ancient symbols, and Chen Mo could not identify them.

    And naturally, Feng Banxia, standing beside him with her carefree manner, could not recognize them either.

    Feng Banxia placed her hand on her chin, focusing intently on the clear blood-red characters appearing on the stone tablet for a moment, and muttered, "What do these characters mean?"

    Chen Mo shook his head, "I don't know either. These characters seem to be ancient script, unintelligible. However, Feng Uncle might understand them. I think this tablet must have recorded some important content."

    Feng Uncle is knowledgeable and has been reading ancient books since he was young. Among the people Chen Mo knows, he is the most likely to be able to read the characters on the tablet.

    In Chen Mo's memory, there has never been this stone tablet. Perhaps, the information recorded on it is very important.

    In this regard, Chen Mo involuntarily called out the paper and pen in his space ring to record the content of the stone tablet.

    However, just as he was about to start writing, the blood-red characters on the stone tablet began to flicker.

    "This, why is it happening?"

    Feng Banxia was puzzled and stared intently at the blood-red characters on the stone tablet. Suddenly, she felt a disturbance in the aura around Chen Mo.

    Feng Banxia was startled and quickly turned her head to look at Chen Mo. She saw that his body had suddenly stiffened, and those clear eyes were gradually turning red.

    And his face gradually became ferocious, looking like a wild beast.

    Chen Mo is not human... Feng Banxia thought, and she also felt the same way. Investigating the cause, she found that she was a half-blood of the human race and the cross-blood demon race.

    Could it be that Chen Mo is also a half-blood?

    Thinking intently, Feng Banxia suddenly realized that Chen Mo's condition was getting worse and worse. This was not a hybrid blood, it was a case of him being possessed by a demon.

    "Chen Mo, Chen Mo..."

    Feng Banxia's tone became urgent, calling out Chen Mo's name repeatedly.

    Suddenly, Feng Banxia remembered that Chen Mo had told her that he practiced a sword art, and sometimes, the overwhelming blood energy could cause him to lose his mind.

    Several times, it was her sword that saved Chen Mo from the demon possession state.

    Although Feng Banxia had never seen Chen Mo in a demon-possessed state, she clearly remembered what Chen Mo had told her.

    Immediately, Feng Banxia hurriedly handed her giant sword in front of Chen Mo and forced him to grasp it.

    However, Chen Mo's aura at the moment was too powerful. Feng Banxia had just approached a little closer when she was blown away by this aura. The giant sword also flew towards her back and was planted in the ground.

    Dammit, what's to be done now, Chen Mo?

    Feng Banxia stumbled and crawled back to her feet, looking at the possessed Chen Mo with a worried expression on her face.

    Without any other options, Feng Banxia could only continue trying to get Chen Mo to grasp her sword, as it was the only method she knew of to pull him back.

    But as she took a step forward, a blood-red aura burst out from all around Chen Mo, enveloping his entire body instantly.

    Suddenly, the blood energy returned to Chen Mo's body, flowing from all over his body back down to his Dan Tian.

    And his ferocious expression and the red eyes gradually returned to their normal state.

    Everything is back to normal.

    "Chen Mo?"

    Feng Banxia called out tentatively, and this time, she received a response from Chen Mo.

    "I'm here."

    Chen Mo replied and looked at Feng Banxia, smiling with the warmth of the sun.

    Feng Banxia let out a slight breath of relief, "You almost scared me to death. Were you possessed just now?"

    "Hmm"

    Chen Mo nodded slightly, "This stone tablet is strange..."

    Chen Mo's expression suddenly tightened. Just a moment ago, when he looked at the stone tablet, he had been possessed. It seemed that the stone tablet was deliberately targeting him.

    Could it be the work of that person?

    Chen Mo knew that the sword art he had practiced, which led to his possession, was the work of that person. If he guessed correctly, the person intended for him to become possessed and lose his mind.

    But what Chen Mo couldn't understand was why at this place, in this location, and at this time, he was being made to lose his possession and sanity.

    This is not reasonable.

    "Chen Mo, you, you were really possessed just now? But, but how did you recover?"

    Feng Banxia furrowed her brow in curiosity, looking up and down at Chen Mo.

    Chen Mo didn't hesitate, "Because I prepared for it."

    That preparation was done in Zhongzhou.

    That day, he asked Gu Shan to refine a spiritual pill that was supposed to be one. In fact, it was two. One was the Ba Nu Dan that would help him break through the third level of refinement, and the other was the Feng Mo Dan that could help him regain his sanity in a short period of time even if he was possessed.

    The Ba Nu Dan was openly ordered from Gu Shan, while the Feng Mo Dan was done secretly. The purpose was to catch him off guard and ensure that he had a firm grasp on the initiative.

    From the moment he obtained the Yun Kong Shi Mo Jian, Chen Mo had guessed that such a thing might happen to him in the future. Therefore, when he was in Zhongzhou, he ordered Gu Shan to refine the Feng Mo Dan for emergency use.

    Coincidentally, it was just at this moment that it came in handy.

    As Chen Mo was speaking, the series of blood-red characters on the stone tablet began to change into golden yellow.

    The flashing golden light echoed in the bottom of the lake.

    In the next moment, those strange golden-yellow characters began to merge, constantly fusing into a single character.
