National Fortune Bonus: After the new player awakens at the maximum level, he will kill like crazy

Chapter 489 This rebellious son!

The ancient bronze lamp actually remained steady just a second before solidifying into substance! It exuded a mysterious and powerful aura.

Taoist Xuanxiao knew in his heart that this meant that the Way of Heaven... seemed to have approved of Qi Mo's Taoism.

Now, Qi Mo only needs to wait for the right opportunity to make a breakthrough with all his accumulated knowledge, break through to the supreme realm, and step into a whole new realm of cultivation!

He wore a gentle smile on his face, watching with interest as Qi Mo carefully sheathed the ancient sword in his hand, which exuded a rustic aura. The light flowing from the ancient sword seemed to still be telling the story of the thrilling experience he had just experienced.

Taoist Xuan Xiao's eyes were filled with admiration for the young man before him. He nodded slightly and asked softly, "How do you feel about this experience?"

Qi Mo raised his head, his eyes clear and firm, and answered truthfully, "In that moment just now, I seemed to have touched the edge of the laws of Taoism. It was an indescribable wonderful feeling, as if the laws governing the entire world were flowing through my fingertips."

He frowned slightly, trying to describe the mysterious feeling more clearly, but words seemed so pale and powerless in the face of such a mysterious experience.

"Very good." The smile in Xuan Xiao Taoist's eyes deepened, and he nodded with satisfaction. He reached out and gently touched Qi Mo's hair, his gesture full of kindness. Then his eyes slowly moved down the mountain, as if staring at a specific location, and slowly said:

"You don't need to rest. From now on, you will have to explore and forge your own path of cultivation."

Taoist Xuan Xiao seemed to understand Qi Mo's inner doubts and reluctance. He paused for a moment before continuing, "Your friend has come all the way to find you and is waiting for you at the foot of the mountain. Go ahead and don't keep him waiting too long."

The words faded away, and a gentle breeze blew by. Taoist Xuan Xiao's figure gradually faded in the wind, and finally disappeared without a trace. Only one sentence remained, echoing on the mountaintop, lingering in Qi Mo's ears: "The bond between you and me as master and disciple has not yet ended. We will meet again in the future."

Qi Mo stood there for a long time, looking at the direction where Taoist Xuanxiao disappeared, feeling mixed emotions.

He took a deep breath and straightened his clothes. Although he was filled with curiosity and speculation about the visitor at the foot of the mountain, his steps were steady and determined as he walked down the mountain. He wondered who could have gone to such great lengths to find this place.

However, a few minutes later, the scene that came into Qi Mo's eyes made him feel both amused and helpless.

I saw a baby with a childish look, arguing with a young boy in a blue shirt over a piece of stone whose material was unknown, and neither of them was willing to give in.

"I've told you hundreds of times, I saw this stone first!" The baby held his hands tightly against his chest, covering the stone tightly, muttering non-stop with his little mouth, his face flushed with excitement.

The young man in blue sighed helplessly and explained patiently, "I left this thing here originally. Please return it to me quickly. I still have to go find my friend."

"You're lying! The aura above is clearly my master..." Before the baby could finish his words, the blue-shirted boy looked as if he had seen something extremely unexpected. His eyes widened instantly and he blurted out: "Qi...Qi Mo!"

When the baby heard the familiar name, his body stiffened suddenly. He clutched the stone on his chest even tighter, yelling, "Even if you called me Sister Mo Hui, I wouldn't be fooled... Hiss! It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

Qi Mo's face was filled with helplessness. He glanced at the young man in front of him, quickly stepped forward, reached out and gently pulled one of the baby's ears, pulled him in front of him, and said, "I say... Qilin, you've been in the Ninth Heaven for so long, why haven't you reached the adolescent stage yet?"

That's right, the seemingly helpless baby before him was none other than the Qilin transformed into a human form. With its ears pulled, the Qilin's nose twitched slightly, catching a glimpse of the familiar air before its head drooped slightly, like a puppy that had made a mistake.

And the young man in blue was Ji Lingguang, who had cleverly concealed his aura.

His eyes rolled around, scanning back and forth between Qi Mo and Qilin, and he couldn't help laughing: "Ha...hahahaha, I was wondering why this kid had to snatch this stone from me, it turns out he's your Qilin."

Qi Mo glanced at Qilin and said with a little embarrassment: "Well... he is considered to be mine..." As he said that, he silently added in his heart: This unfilial son!

Ji Lingguang was open-minded. He waved his hand and said, "It's okay. Anyway, this thing was given to me by Sister Mo Hui back in the First Continent. Back then, in order to help me rebuild my body, she borrowed the power from your Mind Concentration Stone. So, Qilin isn't entirely wrong."

After hearing Ji Lingguang's words of self-examination, Qilin finally raised his head and returned the stone to him seriously. Then he began to talk nonsense: "That's right, and I tell you, I! Have! Already! Reached the teenage stage!"

A smug smile spread across the baby's face, and his hands gently stroked the horns on his forehead. In an instant, a cloud of green mist rose up. When the mist dissipated, a slender and upright figure had replaced the baby's position.

"Master!" Qilin transformed into a young man in a green corset, his face dancing with excitement. Just as he was about to say something, his expression suddenly turned serious, as if he suddenly remembered something important. "Look, I can transform into a human form now, and even my horns can be hidden~"

At the end of his speech, he still couldn't suppress his inner joy, and the ending tone unconsciously rose several tones, full of childlike excitement.

Ji Lingguang witnessed this scene and gave a thumbs up sincerely.

He recalled how Qi Mo and Qilin's auras had been completely suppressed by the laws of heaven and earth when they were on the First Continent. But now, after only a few years of not seeing each other, Qilin's aura was completely unrecognizable to him.

If it weren't for the Concentration Stone as a guide, he would have had trouble finding this place. Furthermore, if Qi Mo had covered his face with his hood, he wouldn't have been able to recognize Qi Mo based solely on that terrifyingly powerful aura.

The two chatted for a while, and after a brief greeting, Qi Mo finally couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?"

Ji Lingguang's expression straightened, and he explained Ji Lu and Ji Shuang's speculations to Qi Mo in detail. He then added, "And that's not all. On the way here, I faintly sensed the aura of the Demon God. The recent situation in the Nine Heavens is really too unstable."

Demon? Qi Mo keenly grasped this key information and asked, "Where did you notice it?" As he spoke, he also briefly explained the matter that Ji Shanru had entrusted him with.

Then, Qilin and Ji Lingguang asked in unison: "You don't know?——"
