The First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 410: Chapter 410 Trying to leave_1

After enhancing his Luck to Purple, Shen Mo felt somewhat more confident. Being lucky has its advantages, and at this point, he was a true harbinger of fortune. Perhaps only a few in the entire Riverside Sect could exceed his level of fortune! Of course, that alone was not enough. After multiple trips to and from Suspended Fairy Mountain, Shen Mo and Jiang Lingfeng made thorough preparations.

Using the Sound Transmission Talisman, he informed Ming Yu of a few matters. Since any thought about ”Suspended Fairy Mountain” would immediately transport them to the foot of the mountain, the information given to Ming Yu via talisman was rather ambiguous. To prevent her from being misled and coming here directly... Shen Mo repeatedly admonished her not to come within two hundred li of this area and not to probe this place with her five senses or spiritual sense! The rest, such as controlling the Black Canopy Magic Boat to cruise outside this area looking for signs of the two of them, would depend on how much Ming Yu could comprehend.

Next, they took various kinds of materials from the Universe Bag and brought them back to Suspended Fairy Mountain to construct a small boat at the foot of the mountain. Fortunately, Shen Mo’s vitality was exceptional. Otherwise, even with low-class spiritual materials, it would have been challenging to mold them into desired shapes without expending Mana and Earthly Fire. Mana could not be used on Suspended Fairy Mountain, so this was just an ordinary small boat made from low-class extraordinary materials, without any inscribed set of runes! At most, it was only slightly sturdier than ordinary boats and still couldn’t avoid being capsized and damaged by Sea Beasts. Fortunately, it was large enough to accommodate Shen Mo and Jiang Lingfeng!

Subsequently, precious magic artifacts such as the Soul Refining Flag were packed away, and they wore inner armor and magic robes to prevent being bitten and losing a limb to aggressive Sea Beasts. Of course, given the robustness of Shen Mo’s vitality, he didn’t really need to worry about this... Unless he were extraordinarily unlucky and encountered a Class III peak or higher Sea Beast!

Incidentally, two of the Grade V Elixirs were taken and carried on their persons, especially the Dreamy Birth Pill, which was sealed in a Jade Vase to prevent seawater from seeping in and ruining its medicinal properties. They each also carried a talisman paper filled with specific details. There were two main parts to the information on it. Besides being for Ming Yu to read, it was also for any outsiders who might ”rescue” them – it was prepared for two possibilities!

If Ming Yu found them successfully, the talisman’s detailed information would guide her away from ”Suspended Fairy Mountain.” She was to take the two of them back to the Riverside Sect or find a Supreme Elder, and then feed them the Dreamy Birth Pill they carried! But, if they were swallowed by Sea Beasts and were fortunately ”rescued” by other creatures, such as the Marine Race, the message on the talisman would convey their identities, methods of rescue, and subsequent rewards.

Unfortunately, Shen Mo could not forge magic artifacts at the foot of Suspended Fairy Mountain! Otherwise, creating a magic treasure that continuously transmitted messages outwards wouldn’t have been difficult. It would have also made it easier for Ming Yu to find the two of them after they entered their ’death-like state’ from the pill.

After rummaging through his Universe Bag, Shen Mo found a Profound-level, low-grade oil lamp magic artifact. He had forgotten when he crafted this item! It must have been a casual work of his shortly after becoming a Grade I Forgemaster. When lit, the oil lamp could illuminate a room as if it were daytime. Because it was not particularly useful, Shen Mo had thrown it into the Universe Bag. Unexpectedly, it now came in handy. With the help of this lamp, once night fell, Ming Yu could see them from a hundred li away, greatly increasing their chances of escaping trouble. This information was naturally conveyed to Ming Yu by Shen Mo using the Sound Transmission Talisman.

After a flurry of attempts and preparations, three days had passed in an instant.

The ominous aura of death on the two of them grew more intense. Shen Mo could even smell an odd odor gradually emanating from himself and Jiang Lingfeng. It wasn’t a stench, but rather a mixture of the smell of death and sandalwood! He possessed the Flawless Skill, which could cleanse the Turbid Qi and Demonic Qi within nature’s Spiritual Qi. This proved that this ominous, deathly aura was not infecting the two of them through the omnipresent Spiritual Qi.

”Junior Brother Shen, did we miss anything?” Jiang Lingfeng and Shen Mo stood shoulder to shoulder at the edge of the Immortal Mountain, looking out at the ocean. Jiang Lingfeng spoke first.

A small boat, made of low-class spirit wood and metallic materials, floated on the sea below the Immortal Mountain. A lamp on the boat was lit, casting a yellow-white light all around. These were all preparations that the two of them had already made.

Shen Mo quickly reviewed the various measures and arrangements in his mind, then shook his head, ”There’s nothing missing! We’ve done everything we can. Success or failure next depends on fate. Senior Sister Jiang, you go first. If anything goes wrong, I can still try to make some adjustments...”

Jiang Lingfeng nodded slightly, determination flashing across her face. Then she jumped from the edge of Suspended Fairy Mountain. The moment she left the mountain, her Mana and soul power returned to normal. She then used her escaping light to fly towards the lamp-lit boat!

Shen Mo knew her state of inner emptiness could only last for a moment. If she continued to travel by escaping light, within a breath or three, the countless thoughts bubbling up from her heart would inevitably touch upon ”Suspended Fairy Mountain.” At that time, she would return to this place in the blink of an eye!

However, before Jiang Lingfeng jumped off the Immortal Mountain, she already had a Dreamy Death Pill in her mouth...

Shen Mo couldn’t use his spiritual sense, so he could only observe her movements visually. He saw her escaping light appear a few feet above the lamp-lit boat, and then she landed safely on it. In the next instant, all the spirit light around her body faded, and she fell down stiffly! Apparently, to avoid potential problems, she swallowed the Dreamy Death Pill as soon as she boarded the boat.

Now it’s my turn!

Shen Mo took a deep breath and jumped towards the vast ocean. Immediately, he conjured a cloud-and-mist spirit light and appeared on the lamp-lit boat. However, Shen Mo didn’t immediately swallow the Dreamy Death Pill that was in his mouth. Instead, he swung the Demon Slaying Sword, unleashing a massive sword Qi behind him.

”Universal Wrath Tide!” Shen Mo uttered a low cry.

The terrifying sword Qi, like a tsunami, pushed the lamp-lit boat, propelling it towards the direction of the Black Canopy Magic Boat. Although Shen Mo’s Proficiency in Swordsmanship was deep and the Universal sword Qi powerful, he was not yet like that Heavenly Monarch of the Divine Bridge Realm who could unleash a sword Qi that would persist for thousands of years without dispersing. This Wrath Tide sword style would probably push the lamp-lit boat dozens of miles out to sea.

Then, Shen Mo took out several Grade III Wind-type talismans from his sleeve. After triggering them, he stuck them to the stern of the boat. Suddenly, a fierce wind began to howl and roar. With the Wrath Tide sword Qi and the talismans, the lamp-lit boat should have no problem sailing over a hundred miles.

After doing all this, Shen Mo dared not delay any longer, lest one of the many thoughts welling up in his mind should again touch upon ”Suspended Fairy Mountain”...

GULP!

He swallowed the Dreamy Death Pill, circulating his cultivation method to diffuse its medicinal properties.

For just an instant, Shen Mo’s vision went black. His five senses and spiritual sense were extinguished, and everything turned into endless darkness and nothingness. His soul had fallen into a state of Nirvana, and his body collapsed into the cabin of the lamp-lit boat.
