Mo Wenjie led Huang Ling'er, Jiang Yurou, Xiao Ayun, Ding Yan, Tuo Yingying, Qin Xiaodie and the others to continue exploring forward. They didn't know how long they had been walking when suddenly a golden light blocked their path. Mo Wenjie looked at the golden light and his heart still felt a bit excited. After all, the light was shining and it should be an opportunity of some sort.
Mo Wenjie was about to reach out and touch the golden light when Huang Ling'er pulled him back. "Brother Wenjie, be careful, there might be a trap," Huang Ling'er warned alertly. Mo Wenjie was slightly taken aback, but then he laughed, agreeing that Huang Ling'er's warning made sense.
As everyone hesitated, a line of words slowly emerged from the golden light: "He who seeks opportunity must solve this riddle." A complex formation diagram appeared next. Mo Wenjie, who had studied various formations since childhood, began to study it intently. The girls gathered around him, too scared to breathe.
After much contemplation, Mo Wenjie finally found a way to solve the riddle. He drew various symbols in the air according to his thoughts. As the last symbol fell, the golden light suddenly intensified and turned into a golden gate. The gate slowly opened, releasing a dense stream of spiritual energy inside.
The group exchanged glances and knew that the opportunity was in front of them. Mo Wenjie led the way into the door, and inside he saw piles of various treasures and cultivation texts. The girls excitedly cheered, while Mo Wenjie looked around, filled with anticipation for his future cultivation journey.
Mo Wenjie opened the secret book and began to read it carefully. What he discovered in this book was a big deal; it contained records of the Fire Spirit Pearl! Once invoked, its power was equivalent to a great emperor's first strike, which would be enough to kill seven or eight ordinary cultivators."
Seeing this, Mo Wenjie's heart naturally experienced a turbulent wave. He had never seen a great emperor cultivator and had no direct experience with the power.
But such a small pearl can instantly kill so many cultivators. Just this point alone is enough to make people shocked.
Mo Wenjie felt more and more scared as he read on. If he really possessed the Fire and Thunder Pearl, wouldn't that be a powerful weapon in his arsenal? It would also be a means of self-preservation! He had to find a way to learn about the Fire and Thunder Pearl!
Mo Wenjie began to carefully search through the pile of treasures and cultivation texts for any clues about the Fire and Thunder Pearl. The girls, seeing him so focused, also helped out. Suddenly, Jiang Yurou discovered an old, tattered book with faintly discernible words "Fire and Thunder Pearl" on it. Mo Wenjie quickly took it over to examine it. The book recorded that the Fire and Thunder Pearl had once appeared in a mysterious ancient cave.
Mo Wenjie decided to set out and find it. The group packed up their belongings and, following the map in the book, set off toward the ancient cave. They encountered many dangers along the way, including beasts blocking their path and illusions confusing them. However, with Mo Wenjie's abilities and the assistance of the girls, they overcame all obstacles safely.
Finally, they reached the ancient cave. The cave mouth emitted waves of intense heat. Mo Wenjie took a deep breath and went in first. Inside, the cave was lit by flickering flames, and the walls were covered with ancient symbols. After deciphering the symbols, Mo Wenjie learned that the Fire and Thunder Pearl was sealed within, and it needed to have his own spiritual energy injected into a specific formation to be unsealed.
Mo Wenjie didn't hesitate to use his spiritual power. As a strong light flashed, a fiery Fire and Thunder Pearl suspended in mid-air. Mo Wenjie reached out and gently took the Fire and Thunder Pearl into his hand. He felt the powerful energy within it, and a smile appeared on his face, knowing that he now had an added lifesaving trump card.
Mo Wenjie looked at the Fire and Thunder Pearl with increasing fondness. It was just one, so he must find a way to make more for himself. How could he learn to refine the Fire and Thunder Pearl? If he could do that, he would have more tools to ensure his safety!
Mo Wenjie began to search through the ancient cave, hoping to find any clues about refining the Fire and Thunder Pearl. As he explored, he felt along the walls and recollected all the knowledge from the cultivation texts he had read before.
Suddenly, Mo Wenjie felt an irregularly shaped stone. When he pressed it down forcefully, the adjacent stone wall slowly opened, revealing a stone box inside. After opening the box, he found only an old parchment scroll with some strange patterns and faint text. Mo Wenjie carefully recognized it and was delighted to find that this was part of the method for refining the Fire and Thunder Pearl.
However, the incomplete parchment scroll was not enough for him to fully master the refining technique. As Mo Wenjie was worried, he remembered the secluded alchemy master in the city. Perhaps this master knew something about the refining of Fire and Thunder Pearls. Therefore, Mo Wenjie and the girls hurriedly left the ancient cave and headed towards the city.
Upon arriving at the master's residence, Mo Wenjie sincerely explained his purpose and presented the treasure he had obtained from the cave. The master studied it for a long time, then sighed deeply and said, "I only know a little bit of the surface, but I can give you a lead. There is a solitary cultivator in the extreme north who has deeply researched the Fire and Thunder Pearl; you may go visit him." Mo Wenjie thanked the master and his eyes were filled with determination as he immediately set off on the journey to the extreme north.
Mo Wenjie and the others continued their journey northward, where the biting cold wind sliced through them. However, with a single-minded pursuit of the Dao, they did not falter. As they traversed an ice plain, they encountered a pack of snow wolves attacking them. Mo Wenjie raised his hands in a sealing motion, summoning the Fire and Thunder Pearl, and instantly flames erupted. The snow wolves were daunted and retreated. After resolving the crisis, they continued their journey.
Finally, they arrived at the solitary cultivator's location in the extreme north, a cave under an ice mountain. Mo Wenjie knocked on the door, and after a long time, an old man appeared. Mo Wenjie respectfully stated his purpose and presented the scroll. The solitary cultivator looked at it and nodded slightly, saying that to complete the refining method, he needed to find Ice Essence Crystal and Flame Sun Sand. The two substances must be combined to fill in the missing parts of the scroll.
However, the Ice Essence Crystal was located in the most frigid abyss, and the Flame Sun Sand was hidden deep within a volcano. Without hesitation, Mo Wenjie set off towards the most frigid abyss first. There, he used the Fire and Thunder Pearl to fend off the cold and eventually found the Ice Essence Crystal. Then he rushed into the depths of the volcano to obtain the Flame Sun Sand.
Returning to the solitary cultivator's place, the cultivator helped him complete the scroll. Overjoyed with the complete refining method, Mo Wenjie thanked the cultivator a thousand times and thanked him a million times. With the girls, he set off on their return journey, preparing to go back and diligently study the method of refining the Fire and Thunder Pearl to enhance his own strength.
As Mo Wenjie and the girls were on their way back, the sky suddenly became thick with dark clouds. A dark shadow streaked across the heavens. It was the demon sect cultivators who had heard about Mo Wenjie's method for refining the Fire and Thunder Pearl, coming to snatch it away.
Mo Wenjie clenched his fists, protecting the girls behind him. The demon sect cultivators let out a series of wild laughs, "You brat, hand over the refining method or it will be your death today." Mo Wenjie remained calm and collected, secretly holding the Fire and Thunder Pearl in his hand. Pretending to beg for mercy, he took advantage of the cultivators' relaxed vigilance and threw the Fire and Thunder Pearl fiercely. In an instant, flames surged outwards. The demon sect cultivators were caught off guard by Mo Wenjie's daring resistance and scrambled to avoid the flames.
Mo Wenjie took the opportunity to launch an attack with the girls, casting various magical spells. For a moment, a dazzling array of lights intertwined. The demon sect cultivators were enraged and used their ultimate moves. Mo Wenjie felt immense pressure as he thought of the refining method he had just obtained. He forced himself to calm his mind and, according to the steps he remembered, quickly gathered spiritual energy to simulate the early stages of refining the Fire and Thunder Pearl. This move unexpectedly caused an explosive surge of formidable intimidation from his surroundings, stunning the demon sect cultivators into submission.
Mo Wenjie capitalized on the opportunity to launch a follow-up attack, once again activating the Fire and Thunder Pearl. The demon sect cultivators were no match and fled in a hurry. Mo Wenjie let out a sigh of relief, knowing that his power still needed to be continuously improved. With the girls, he hurried back to their homeland to focus on refining the Fire and Thunder Pearl.
Upon returning to their homeland, Mo Wenjie immediately entered his cultivation room. He organized the materials he had gathered from various places and began to attempt the refining of the Fire and Thunder Pearl according to the methods described on the parchment scroll. The girls stood outside the room, tense and expectant.
Mo Wenjie carefully controlled the firepower, but in his first attempt at refining, because of a slight deviation in the spiritual energy input, there was a loud "boom" and the refining failed. However, he didn't lose heart. After adjusting his state, he began his second attempt. This time, he was even more careful, strictly following each step of the method. As the final process was about to be completed, the entire cultivation room was filled with brilliant light.
Success! A brand-new Fire and Thunder Pearl appeared before his eyes. Mo Wenjie was overjoyed. He walked out of the room and showed the Fire and Thunder Pearl to the girls, who all exclaimed in admiration.
However, Mo Wenjie was not satisfied with this. He knew that dangers were ubiquitous in the cultivation world. He planned to continue refining more Fire and Thunder Pearls and further improve the refining method to make the Fire and Thunder Pearl even more powerful.
Mo Wenjie re-entered the cultivation room, determined to continuously enhance his strength within this small realm, protecting both himself and the girls' peace.
Huang Ling'er and Jiang Yu Rou, among the girls, looked at Mo Wenjie with hearts full of love. They themselves didn't know why they had met a man as good as Mo Wenjie. Although their own powers had also improved significantly, they were still far behind Mo Wenjie. Moreover, without Mo Wenjie, how could they have received such treatment?
Days went by, and Mo Wenjie continued to refine Fire and Thunder Pearls. His skills became increasingly proficient, and the quality and power of the Fire and Thunder Pearls were gradually improving. One day, as Mo Wenjie was refining the Fire and Thunder Pearl in his cultivation room, he suddenly felt an unusual fluctuation. He walked out of the room to investigate and found a large spatial crack in the sky. Mo Wenjie realized that this might be the beginning of a great crisis.
He gathered the girls and said seriously, "The spatial crack in the sky is definitely strange. I want to investigate it, so you stay at home and wait for my news." The girls were worried, but they also understood that Mo Wenjie's decision could not be altered.
As Mo Wenjie approached the space crack, a powerful suction pulled him. He struggled against it, but was still drawn in. When he finally managed to stand firm, he found himself in an unfamiliar realm where the spiritual energy was scarce and everywhere there was an oppressive atmosphere.
Suddenly, a massive monster charged towards him. Mo Wenjie quickly summoned the Fire and Thunder Pearl to counterattack. During the battle, he discovered that the creatures here seemed to have a stronger resistance to the Fire and Thunder Pearl. Mo Wenjie remained calm and used various spells to fight back.
Just as Mo Wenjie was beginning to figure out the weaknesses of the monsters, several figures appeared in the distance. Mo Wenjie's heart tightened, unsure whether these newcomers were friends or foes.
