Chapter 715: Chapter 566: Jun Meng, Would You Be Willing?

In the blink of an eye, a year and a half had quietly passed since Xiao Mo arrived at the Seeking Immortal Temple.

For an ordinary person, a year and a half was certainly not a short amount of time.

But for a Cultivator, those eighteen months were like a mere dozen days for a mortal—gone in the blink of an eye.

After arriving at the Seeking Immortal Temple, Xiao Mo abandoned Buddhist Dharma for Daoist Skill, starting his cultivation of the *Great Dream of Yellow Millet* from scratch.

Daoist Skill and Buddhist Dharma were, after all, vastly different.

Moreover, due to the unique nature of the *Great Dream of Yellow Millet* Cultivation Technique, Xiao Mo had to first completely dissipate his previous Cultivation and start all over again if he wanted to practice it.

For most Cultivators, dispersing one’s cultivation to start anew required immense courage.

It meant becoming a mere mortal again, all your past efforts turning to dust and washing away.

But Xiao Mo didn’t seem to care much about any of that.

Without much hesitation, he directly dispersed his Cultivation.

Gui Junmeng had originally thought that since Xiao Mo was new to Daoist Skill, she might need to frequently answer his questions, or perhaps even transfer some of her own vital energy to help him through a smooth transition.

But Xiao Mo’s comprehension of Daoist Skill once again revealed the same astonishing talent he had possessed in his past life.

If the *Great Dream of Yellow Millet* was a long road, then as Xiao Mo cultivated this technique, it was as if he clearly remembered every single step he had taken before.

He just needed to walk that same path all over again.

During the time Xiao Mo was engrossed in his cultivation, his daily life was looked after by Liu Shui.

In truth, Xiao Mo had already refused Liu Shui’s help many times, telling her he could take care of himself.

But Liu Shui was exceptionally stubborn and refused to back down.

In the end, Xiao Mo simply couldn’t turn her down anymore and could only let Sister Liu Shui have her way.

It was just that while taking care of Xiao Mo, Liu Shui never seemed to have her guard up.

When she bent over to clean the courtyard, she would occasionally and "unintentionally" reveal a flash of snow-white skin in front of him.

At other times, when telling Xiao Mo about things happening in the temple, she would quietly press herself against him, getting extremely close.

But every time, Xiao Mo would impassively maintain his distance from Liu Shui, neither embarrassing her nor allowing himself to cross any boundaries.

In truth, Liu Shui was well aware of what was between Gui Junmeng and Xiao Mo.

She knew that Xiao Mo needed to dual cultivate with Jun Meng to help her complete her Great Dao, and that his Primordial Yang had to be saved for her.

Therefore, Liu Shui never took things any further, always restraining herself.

During this period of dedicated cultivation, Xiao Mo also heard news from the outside world—the Demon Race army was launching an offensive toward the Seeking Immortal Temple.

The commander of this contingent of the Demon Race’s allied forces was none other than the Tushan Saintess herself.

Now, rumors were spreading throughout the Demon Race’s World—that the Saintess of the Tushan clan had already stepped into the Immortal Realm.

By any calculation, the Saintess was not yet even eighty years old, yet she had already entered the Immortal Realm.

Such world-shocking talent was unparalleled throughout the entire Demon Race’s World.

However, the Seeking Immortal Temple was located deep in the rear of the Human Alliance.

For the forces of the Demon Race’s World, attacking the Seeking Immortal Temple would not be so simple.

In fact, many among the Demon Alliance’s high command had already proposed a direct assault on Seeking Immortal Mountain.

In their view, as long as they conquered Seeking Immortal Mountain—the very symbol of the Human Alliance—it would deal a devastating blow to the alliance’s morale. From then on, the Human Race would be like scattered sand, never to unite again.

But if they delayed any longer, it would give the Human Alliance more time to grow stronger, and give the World of Ten Thousand Laws a better opportunity to intervene.

However, such a decision meant the Demon Alliance would have to fight the Human Alliance to the death, leaving no room for maneuvering. Thus, many in the high command were hesitant, long unable to make a final decision.

Tushan Jing Ci leading her army straight for Seeking Immortal Mountain was merely the spark that ignited it all.

It was precisely because of this spark that the other two major Demon Race armies no longer hesitated, seeking to annihilate the Human Alliance as quickly as possible.

An all-out war between the Human Race and the Demon Race erupted.

More and more Daoists from the Seeking Immortal Temple rushed to the front lines, and Xiao Mo was no exception.

In his tenth year at the Seeking Immortal Temple, Xiao Mo entered the Golden Core Realm and stepped onto the battlefield.

At first, Xiao Mo was just an unknown Daoist.

Within the Human Alliance, those who admired Gui Junmeng even treated him with a certain degree of ostracism and cold glares when they saw how close he was to the woman they adored.

But in his very first battle, he used his Golden Core Realm Cultivation to slay a Great Demon of the Nascent Soul Realm, a feat that crossed cultivation levels. In that moment, everyone looked at this "newcomer" with newfound respect.

At the same time, the Demon Race added "Xiao Mo" to their kill-on-sight list for the battlefield.

Both the Human Race and the Demon Race did their utmost to strangle any genius in the cradle before they could fully mature, absolutely refusing to allow them to grow stronger on the battlefield.

For the next twenty years, Xiao Mo rarely stayed at the Seeking Immortal Temple, spending nearly all his time fighting on the front lines.

During one brutal battle, the Human Race and the Demon Race fought fiercely for three days and three nights before both sides finally sounded the retreat.

Xiao Mo, too, had reached his limit. Bathed in blood, he slowly flew from the battlefield with Gui Junmeng’s support.

Just then, as if sensing something, Xiao Mo suddenly stopped.

He slowly turned and gazed into the distance.

Behind the Demon Race’s formation, an incomparably vast pressure—the aura of the Immortal Realm—filled the sky.

A woman in a white dress strode through the air, her cold gaze fixed in Xiao Mo’s direction.

Their eyes met, gazing at each other across the distance.

In that instant, it was as if they were the only two people left in the entire world.
