Chapter 256 The Truth About Poison Mountain
......
Seven Poison Mountain is shrouded in poisonous fog year-round, and not a single blade of grass grows there.
"What a terrifying place," Feng Baobao said softly, even with her Heavenly Gu Body.
She could also feel the suffocating poisonous gas in the mountains.
Jiang Mo's golden eyes swept across the mountains, and the corners of his mouth turned up slightly: "For ordinary people, this place is indeed a dead end."
"But for us, it's a huge energy field."
Feng Baobao looked at Jiang Mo curiously: "What did you sense?"
"The memories of the Gu God tell me that Seven Poison Mountain was not formed naturally, but was the work of the former sect leader of the Heavenly Gu Sect."
Jiang Mo slowly explained, "He gathered countless highly poisonous substances here, forming this Poison Mountain."
"It's to provide myself with a continuous source of strength in critical moments."
A flicker of shock crossed Feng Baobao's eyes: "So, we've stumbled into the enemy's headquarters?"
Jiang Mo nodded, his eyes flashing with golden light: "But don't worry, I am already the reincarnation of the Gu God."
"These poisons are nothing more than a source of power for me. Come on, stay close to me."
As he spoke, Jiang Mo strode up the mountain, with Feng Baobao following closely behind.
As they ventured deeper, the poisonous fog in Seven Poison Mountain grew thicker, and all sorts of strange poisonous insects and creatures began to appear around them.
These poisonous creatures seemed to sense Jiang Mo's presence; instead of attacking, they avoided him from a distance.
Some small poisonous insects even gravitated towards Jiang Mo, as if they were paying homage to him.
Jiang Mo wasn't surprised, and smiled faintly: "Did you feel it? This mountain is like a huge energy reservoir to me."
As he spoke, he took a deep breath, and as he channeled his energy, golden light shone brightly around him.
Countless golden particles danced around him, forming a magnificent golden light curtain.
These light particles absorbed the surrounding poisonous gas, making Jiang Mo's aura even stronger.
"My God, your strength has increased again!" Feng Baobao exclaimed.
Jiang Mo nodded slightly: "The poisonous creatures of Seven Poison Mountain are the best tonics for me."
The two continued their ascent to the summit, encountering numerous unimaginable poisonous creatures along the way.
But in the face of Jiang Mo's Gu God power, these poisonous creatures either avoided or submitted, posing no threat whatsoever.
However, some challenges were still foreseeable.
For example, just as they were about to reach the summit, they sensed a sinister aura emanating from them.
It was as if an invisible hand was trying to stop them from moving forward.
"The aura of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master." A cold glint flashed in Jiang Mo's eyes. "It seems he has already sensed our arrival."
Feng Baobao clenched her fists instinctively: "His remnant soul still has such power?"
Just then, the powerful aura suddenly transformed into countless thin black lines, enveloping Jiang Mo and Feng Baobao like a spider web.
Jiang Mo sneered, and a golden light flashed in his palm. A golden barrier instantly unfolded, blocking all the black lines outside.
"It's no use, Sect Master of the Heavenly Gu Sect. You've been sealed for a thousand years; your power is no longer what it once was."
Jiang Mo said coldly, "And I, having inherited the full power of the Gu God, am here today to utterly annihilate you!"
Before the words were even finished, a deafening roar suddenly echoed from the mountaintop: "The reincarnation of the Gu God? Hahaha, Jiang Mo, you're too arrogant!"
"You think that by fusing with the soul of the Gu God, you can contend with me? How laughable!"
Jiang Mo remained expressionless and continued leading Feng Baobao toward the mountaintop.
Upon reaching the summit, we discovered a cave entrance.
The entrance to the cave was sealed by a dark red energy barrier, which was covered with various ancient and eerie runes.
Jiang Mo carefully examined the runes, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes: "This is... the seal of the Gu God?"
A sinister laugh suddenly echoed from the depths of the cave: "That's right, this is the seal that the Gu God set up at the cost of serious injury."
"For thousands of years, countless people have tried to unravel its mystery, but all have failed."
"However, Jiang Mo, your arrival has given me an opportunity. As the reincarnation of the Gu God, your blood is the key to breaking this seal!"
Jiang Mo sneered, "Unfortunately, you'll never get this key."
As he spoke, he formed a hand seal, his body radiating golden light, and chanted an ancient incantation: "Golden Gu Divine Power, the seal is eternally secure!"
As the incantation was chanted, Jiang Mo's body floated in the air.
Countless golden runes surged from his body, intertwining with the dark red energy barrier to form a silent battle.
The laughter in the cave suddenly turned manic: "No! You actually want to reinforce the seal?"
Jiang Mo did not answer, remaining focused on chanting the incantation. More and more golden runes appeared, gradually covering the entire barrier.
Just as the seal was about to be completely reinforced.
A powerful force suddenly erupted from the depths of the cave, crashing against the seal like a tidal wave.
"Jiang Mo, you're too naive!" A maniacal laugh echoed from inside the cave.
"I foresaw this day would come, so I left a contingency plan a thousand years ago!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than the ground around the cave suddenly cracked open.
Countless dark red Gu worms crawled out of the crack and rushed towards Jiang Mo and Feng Baobao.
"Watch out!" Jiang Mo shouted, instantly withdrawing some of the golden light to form a golden protective shield that enveloped Feng Baobao.
Just then, a familiar voice rang out: "Jiang Mo, I'm here to help you!"
Jiang Mo and Feng Baobao turned their heads at the same time and saw two figures rushing towards them on the mountain road. They were Chen Duo and Wei Duoduo!
"Chen Duo! Wei Duoduo! What brings you here?"
Jiang Mo asked in surprise, while continuing to strengthen the seal with his hand seals.
Chen Duo and Wei Duoduo rushed to Jiang Mo's side.
A determined glint flashed in Chen Duo's eyes: "Jin Qiankun told us where you were going, and we were worried about your safety, so we rushed here to help."
Wei Duoduo nodded: "That's right, we can't let you face the danger alone."
Feng Baobao looked at the two of them, a hint of emotion flashing in her eyes: "That was too risky. Do you know how dangerous it is here?"
Chen Duo raised her hand, and a ball of dark golden Qi appeared in her palm: "I can now completely control the primordial Gu within my body."
"With the added power of the Gu God's bloodline, I'm confident I can help you."
Wei Duoduo retorted, not to be outdone: "Don't forget, I underwent special training at the company; I know how to deal with these poisonous insects."
Jiang Mo felt a warmth in her heart when she saw the two people's determined eyes, but then she became worried again.
"But the poisonous gas here is too strong. Wei Duoduo, without the protection of the Gu God's bloodline, it's very dangerous for you."
Wei Duoduo smiled slightly and took out a small bottle from her bosom: "Chen Duo gave me some antidote pills she made."
"We can temporarily withstand the poisonous gas here."
Jiang Mo looked around at the increasing number of dark red Gu worms, then at the sealing barrier, and gritted his teeth.
"Alright, you two take care of dealing with these Gu worms, let me and the baby focus on reinforcing the seal!"
