Vice President Zhao has already fled.
Huang Ling'er giggled and said: "With such little power, he dares to compete for the position of the president with Brother Mo, it's simply a pipedream. He's just a small vice-president and dares to question Grandpa's decision. After I go back, I must tell Grandpa about this!"
Mo Wenjie quickly waved his hand and said, "Let's stop with this, Ling'er. We don't need to tell your grandfather. Our main task right now is to continue searching for opportunities, and other things don't matter!"
Mo Wenjie said this and started to walk forward. Huang Ling'er hurriedly followed. The two of them moved through this mysterious place, with a misty aura of qi surrounding them. Suddenly, a brilliant portal appeared in the distance.
"Big Brother Mo, this looks like a great opportunity," Huang Ling'er exclaimed excitedly.
Mo Wenjie cautiously approached, feeling a strong but gentle force wave. Just as he was about to reach out and touch the portal, a giant spiritual dog suddenly appeared from the side and barked at them ferociously.
"This spiritual dog guards here, which means it definitely won't let us in," Mo Wenjie frowned.
Huang Ling'er turned her eyes and took out a piece of spirit meat from her storage bag, throwing it towards the distance. The spiritual dog immediately turned around to chase after it.
"Hurry up!" Mo Wenjie pulled Huang Ling'er into the portal. Inside, they found a medicinal garden filled with spirit plants, with a towering tree in the center. The tree was covered with shimmering spirit fruits.
"This is a rare spirit fruit garden, and we're going to get rich," Huang Ling'er cheered.
But at this moment, an array of restrictive forces surged out and trapped them.
"It seems that it's not going to be easy to obtain the treasures here." Mo Wenjie tightened his fist, ready to face the challenge.
Huang Ling'er, seeing the situation here, was neither anxious nor worried. She giggled and said, "Mo Wenjie, you forgot about our big brother Long Dragon and Qin Xiaodie, Jiang Yuerou, Xiao Yawen, Ding Yan, Tuoba Yingying, and others outside. With our inside and outside attacks, isn't it easy to break through this defense?"
Mo Wenjie's eyes lit up upon hearing Huang Ling'er's words, "Right, why didn't I think of that?"
So Mo Wenjie activated his spiritual power, attempting to contact the companions outside. At the same time, Black Dragon was with several girls waiting anxiously outside. Suddenly, they received Mo Wenjie's message and Black Dragon laughed loudly, "Sisters, brother Mo has a solution. We are ready to attack." Everyone shouted in unison and used their strongest spells to attack the barrier. For a while, there were shimmering lights outside and the attacks rained down like rain on the barrier. Inside the barrier, Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er also simultaneously attacked, combining internal and external forces. Under their joint efforts, the barrier began to crack. As the final strike landed, the barrier shattered into pieces.
Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er smiled at each other and quickly ran towards the spirit fruit tree. Just as they were about to pick the spirit fruits, the tree suddenly transformed into an old man. The old man stroked his beard and said, "You guys are quite clever. However, these spirit fruits are not easily taken away. You still need to pass my test." Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er looked at each other with determination in their eyes, "Please go ahead and give us a question."
The old man nodded slightly, "Then the first question will be this. There is a spring in this garden whose water can nourish all things. If you can find it and bring back a bowl of the water to me, you will pass."
Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er turned around without hesitation to find the spring. Finding the spring in the garden with heavy mist was not an easy task. Huang Ling'er had a sudden idea and released her spirit pet, Xiaomiao. Xiaomiao had a keen sense of smell and led the two of them to the spring in no time. When they took the spring water back, the old man said, "This is an illusion water created by magic, not real. The real spring is beside a blue fairy herb."
Disheartened but not giving up, they searched again. Mo Wenjie closed his eyes to sense the path of the spiritual energy, and eventually found the real spring, beside which there was indeed a blue fairy herb. After taking the spring water back, the old man nodded with satisfaction, "You two have passed the first round. The second round requires that you combine your efforts to withstand three moves from me." After saying this, the old man's aura surged, and with a wave of his hands, a powerful spiritual force attacked them. Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er held hands, mobilizing their full spiritual power to block it, just barely catching the first move. They knew that the next two moves would be even more difficult, but their eyes became more determined.
Seeing their determination, the old man praised them silently in his heart. In the blink of an eye, the old man quickly cast a seal with his hands and chanted spells, causing countless flashes of spiritual energy to form into blades in the air. The blades rained down on Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er like rain. Mo Wenjie shouted loudly and surged his spiritual power out, forming a shield in front of him; Huang Ling'er then poured her own spiritual power into Mo Wenjie's body to strengthen the shield. The blades struck the shield, sending up sparks of light. Although the shield blocked most of the attacks, a few blades managed to break through their defense and slice their skin.
"There's one more move left," the old man said in a deep voice. At this point, Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er were already breathing heavily.
Mo Wenjie took a deep breath and suddenly had an idea of a never-before-tried method of combining spiritual power. He whispered a few words to Huang Ling'er, and the two began to operate their spiritual power according to this new method. The old man then launched another attack, with a powerful spiritual force that was earth-shattering and universe-destroying.
Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er combined their efforts, pushing out the fused spiritual power. The two forces collided, creating a powerful shockwave. When the light faded, Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er remained standing firm. The old man clapped his hands and laughed heartily, "Excellent! You have passed the test. You can take the spirit fruits now."
Mo Wenjie looked at Jiang Yuerou and Qin Xiaodie, "What are you all standing there staring at? Why don't you hurry up and pick the spirit fruits? Brother Black Dragon may not need the spirit fruits, but doesn't anyone of you? Quickly pick the spirit fruits, or you might regret it later. Especially Tuoba Yingying and Ding Yan, you two always like to complain!"
Hearing Mo Wenjie's words, everyone finally came back to their senses and quickly ran towards the spirit fruit tree. Tuoba Yingying grumbled, "Hmph, just know how to rush all the time." However, her hands moved swiftly as well.
As Jiang Yuerou reached out to pluck the largest and most plump spirit fruit, a melodious flute sound suddenly echoed around. The sound seemed to have magic, causing everyone to stop what they were doing and look confused.
Suddenly, a snow-white little deer slowly walked over. It had a golden horn on its head, and the horn emitted a gentle glow. The little deer came to the spirit fruit tree and spoke in human language: "This tree is something I protect, and you cannot pluck it without permission."
Mo Wenjie came back to his senses and took a step forward, saying, "We have passed the test of the owner of this place, so we should be able to pluck the spirit fruits." The little deer looked at him with disdain in its eyes: "That was the rule of the old master. Now I am the guardian, and to take the spirit fruits, you must defeat me first." After speaking, a powerful spiritual energy emanated from its body. Everyone looked at each other, a new challenge was about to begin.
Mo Wenjie took a deep breath and struck first, channeling his spiritual energy into a long blade that pierced towards the little deer. The deer leaped lightly to dodge the attack, and its antlers flashed as several spiritual beams were shot towards everyone. Huang Ling'er waved her sleeve, deploying a layer of spiritual shield to block the beams.
Qin Xiaodie saw this and formed hand seals, calling out a few spirit butterflies to fly towards the little deer. However, the deer wasn't panic-stricken. Instead, a circle of rippling spiritual energy appeared beneath its feet, shattering the butterflies.
Mo Wenjie's eyes narrowed, and he looked at Huang Ling'er with determination. They both charged towards the little deer at the same time. This time, the deer didn't dodge, but instead directly confronted them. Its body suddenly grew several times larger, resembling a colossal beast.
As the intense battle was in full swing, the sky suddenly darkened, and an old voice echoed, "Stop." It was indeed the old man who had tested them before. The old man walked towards the little deer and gently stroked its back. "Little guy, since they have passed my test, they can pick some of these spirit fruits. You can also take a few as well." After hearing this, the spiritual energy fluctuations on the little deer gradually subsided, and it returned to its original size. Although it was unwilling to do so, it still retreated to the side. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the old man with gratitude. Then they all started picking spirit fruits.
Mo Wenjie and Huang Ling'er, Xiao Yawen, Jiang Yuerou, Ding Yan, Tuoba Yingying, and Qin Xiaodie all harvested a lot. They were very happy to bow to the old man and express their gratitude for the favor shown by the old man. If there is anything I can do for you, Mo Wenjie, I will be at your service without hesitation!
The old man smiled slightly and waved his hand, saying, "There is no need for that. Today's events were merely due to the workings of fate. Although these spirit fruits are precious, to me they are just trivial things." The hearts of Mo Wenjie and the others were still filled with respect.
At this moment, the old man looked deep into the distance with a profound gaze and slowly spoke, "In fact, the heavens are about to face a great calamity. I secluded myself here also to seek those with destiny to jointly withstand this difficulty. You few have remarkable talent and pure hearts. If you are willing to accompany me in cultivation for a period of time, you may be able to make a contribution to all living beings in the future." Hearing this, everyone was stunned. Mo Wenjie took a step forward without hesitation, "Master of enlightenment, we are willing to follow you." Others also nodded in agreement.
So, the old man took them to a mysterious valley. The air in the valley was so rich with spiritual energy that it seemed tangible, and there were various strange formations. Here, they began to receive rigorous training from the old man, not only refining their use of spiritual power but also learning the ancient ways of formation and restriction. As days passed by, their abilities continued to grow. They knew that they bore a heavy responsibility and looked forward to being able to cope with that unknown great calamity in the future.
The Black Dragon looked on as their strength continued to grow, causing it to be in disbelief. Mo Wenjie's speed of strength enhancement was too fast, and if he continued at this pace, he would surpass himself without much time. Such talent is truly terrifying. If Mo Wenjie continues to develop in this manner, it will only be a matter of time before his strength exceeds that of the Black Dragon. Having a brother-in-law like him is truly a source of comfort. Perhaps the future of the Black Dragon will depend on this brother-in-law?
Mo Wenjie watched as the Black Dragon stared at him with a fixed gaze, feeling very puzzled in his heart. "Big brother, are you looking at your brother like this because there's something on your mind?"
