Chu Mo looked at the young man, surprised at first, then saluting him, "Thank you for your help last time!"
"No need for formalities with me. Since it's you, everything is easy to discuss." The young man spoke with gentle elegance, quite unlike Gold, whose demeanor inspired no confidence.
Gold at the side, however, was impatient, "Enough, Water, stop pretending to be cultured here, hurry up and go find Earth…"
"Cough...Water? Earth? What kind of names are these?" The youth formed from the essence of the Five Elements Water couldn't help but frown, finding the names hard on the ears.
"Go ask him!" Gold pointed at Chu Mo.
Chu Mo chuckled awkwardly, "That...I don't know your names."
"We don't have names, Water is just Water...since you came up with it, we'll just go with that." The essence of the Five Elements Water gave a small smile, saying softly.
"Sycophant!" Gold sneered.
"I say, can't you become the size of a normal person? Looking at you like this...it's a little awkward." Chu Mo felt uncomfortable looking at the tiny figures.
At that moment, a light flashed, and the essence of the Five Elements Water transformed into a full-sized adult. He did indeed have a handsome and suave appearance, smiling at Chu Mo, "As you wish!"
However, Gold was unwilling to grow bigger, sticking out his mouth, "I'm still a baby…"
"..." Both Chu Mo and Water rolled their eyes.
This guy, he has no shame.
Afterwards, the trio of Chu Mo once again came to the Human Layer's territory of the Five Elements Earth.
They met the essence of the Five Elements Earth, a man who looked to be in his thirties. Chu Mo didn't come forward. Water and Gold talked to him, no one knew about what. Anyway, their group then grew to four people.
"You're all spirits of the Five Elements, so why are your ages diverse when you take human form?" At this point, Chu Mo's group had appeared in the illusionary Realm of Earth.
Water chuckled, "This is based on different personalities, you see Earth..."
Earth, standing to the side, grimaced, muttering, "Earth..."
"A name given by our lord," Water chuckled.
Earth scratched his head, "Well, Earth it is then..."
Gold argued, "So what if personalities are different! Am I supposed to act like a child?"
"You're like a baby!" Earth stroked the beard on his chin, jabbing back fiercely.
"Get lost!" Gold snapped, "I am the chief of the Five Elements!"
"Being the chief in the Heaven Layer?" Water smiled, "You're overthinking."
"Yes," Earth added a word, just one.
Watching these spirits of the Five Elements joke with each other, Chu Mo felt a bit overwhelmed. Are these really spirits of the Five Elements? Not humans in disguise?
In the Realm of Earth, Chu Mo suddenly felt a familiar mark throbbing inside him. He paused for a moment, then remembered something and muttered, "That pill... why is it here?"
Chu Mo had sensed the aura of the Breaking Boundary Pill he once concocted for Shangguan Nan.
He had intended to plot against Shangguan Nan at that time, but the plan was obstructed by many unforeseen things. Chu Mo had almost forgotten about it. Unexpectedly, after so long, he once again sensed this aura in the Realm of Earth.
Could it be that Shangguan Nan has now advanced to the Da Luo Golden Immortal realm?
Or was the pill he concocted not meant to be used by him?
No matter what, now that he has discovered the fluctuation of that pill, Chu Mo felt the urge to check it out.
Gold looked at Chu Mo, "What's up?"
"I sensed the aura of a Breaking Boundary Pill that I once made." Chu Mo said.
"Let's go check it out then!" Gold's face lit up with excitement.
In the Heaven Layer, Gold keeps a low profile and appears indifferent to everything. But in the Human Layer and the Realm of Earth, Gold is very active. This made Chu Mo guess that Gold's real strength should not surpass the true immortal realm.
Naturally, Water and Earth had no objections.
Following Chu Mo, they sought out that aura. Arriving at the location where the aura disappeared, they suddenly realized that this place was the territory of the Five Elements Wood!
"What a coincidence!" Gold's eyes widened as he looked at Chu Mo, "Are you sure that aura disappeared here?"
Chu Mo nodded, "Exactly, right here!"
"Hey, let's go in and take a look!" Gold said, taking the lead without needing the Breaking Boundary Pill. He broke the barrier and went in directly.
Chu Mo and the rest followed him in.
Upon entering the small world of the Five Elements Wood, Chu Mo immediately felt an intense vitality.
Life was abundant here, with towering trees covering the whole area.
Some ancient trees were so gigantic that even a single tree resembled a towering mountain, reaching into the clouds! Chu Mo was dumbfounded.
"Since we're here, let's find Wood first. It rules this world, so it should be very easy for it to find those people." Gold proposed.
Chu Mo agreed with this. Then, the group entered the core of the dragon vein and summoned the Spirit of Five Elements Wood. However, the spirit of Five Elements Wood standing before them was a thin man in his twenties who looked seriously injured, his face pale.
Gold, Water, and Earth, who came out with him, also looked unwell.
"What happened? What's going on?" Chu Mo asked in surprise.
Through the spirits of the Five Elements Water, Earth, and Gold, Chu Mo realized that these spirits, although strong, were not very adept at combat.
Moreover, their realms were not very advanced.
Among them, Earth should be the strongest, but even he could not be in the Emperor Realm.
However, in their respective realms, they are the true rulers. It should be difficult for anything to harm them. So why did the Spirit of Five Elements Wood appear injured?
As expected, when Chu Mo asked, Gold said angrily, "Wood was tricked by someone!"
"Tricked?" Chu Mo was stunned, not being able to imagine who could trick the Spirit of Five Elements Wood in such a place.
Wood nodded at Chu Mo, saluted, and then said, "It's my own fault for not being careful. Someone, seriously injured, came to me for a type of medicinal herb. I felt sorry for him, so I gave him a few old herbs. Yet, that person was plotting against me. He quietly set up arrays around me. Then a large group of powerful people suddenly swarmed in, all avoiding my senses. They came for me. If they hadn't arrived just in time, I would have been in real danger."
"Are those people still inside?" Chu Mo immediately thought of the Breaking Boundary Pill he had concocted. It couldn't be this coincidental, could it?
Sure enough, Wood gave a nod.
