Chapter 355 Chu Mochen's Persistence
After parting with Yun Yao unhappily, Chu Mochen was filled with regret and loss. He knew very well that this misunderstanding was all due to his credulity, which allowed the ill-intentioned Liu Yan'er to take advantage of the opportunity and hurt Yun Yao's heart. Looking at Yun Yao's resolute back, his heart was like being hit by a heavy hammer, and the pain spread throughout his body.
Returning to his own residence, the room was so quiet that it was somewhat depressing. He sat in a chair, staring blankly ahead, his mind constantly echoing with Yun Yao's sad words and disappointed eyes. After a long time, he slowly stood up, walked to the window, opened it, and let the cool night wind blow on his hot face.
"I can't just give up like this." Chu Mochen clenched his fists and vowed secretly. The moonlight shone on his cold face, reflecting his determined expression. He knew that it would not be easy to win back Yun Yao's heart, but he was willing to make every effort.
From that night on, Chu Mochen began his persistent journey of protection. Every morning, before the first ray of sunlight completely penetrated the clouds, he got up early and went to the secret room where Yun Yao practiced. He carefully concealed his breath, found a secluded corner, sat on the ground, and kept his eyes fixed on the entrance of the secret room.
This secret room is located deep in the back mountain of the sect. It is full of spiritual energy, but also quiet and secluded. Few people come here on weekdays. The surrounding trees are tall and dense, with branches and leaves intertwined, providing a natural shelter for Chu Mochen. He sat there quietly, like a silent rock, with only his eyes revealing his inner concern and expectation.
At first, there were disciples in the sect who occasionally passed by here. Seeing Chu Mochen like this, they were curious but did not dare to ask more questions. After a long time, everyone knew his intentions, and when they occasionally passed by, they would deliberately slow down their steps for fear of disturbing him.
While protecting Yun Yao, Chu Mochen never forgot to look for precious cultivation resources for her. Relying on his connections accumulated in the cultivation world and his understanding of various dangerous places, he embarked on a difficult treasure hunt.
He heard that in the depths of the Sunset Mountains, thousands of miles away from the sect, there was a rare item called "Spirit Crystal Jade Marrow", which was of great help in breaking through the bottleneck of the Judan Realm. Although the Sunset Mountains were full of dangers, not only were there ferocious monsters rampant, but there were also various strange natural traps, but Chu Mochen did not hesitate at all and resolutely headed there.
Along the way, he encountered countless challenges. As soon as he stepped into the outskirts of the mountain range, a group of first-level monsters "Gas Wolves" targeted him. These Gas Wolves were agile, extremely fast, and good at group attacks. Seeing this, Chu Mochen's eyes instantly became as sharp as an eagle. He swung the long sword in his hand, and a sharp sword energy instantly slashed out, repelling the several Gas Wolves that rushed to the front.
But these monsters were not scared away, but became more ferocious. They fanned out and surrounded Chu Mochen, roaring. Chu Mochen was not afraid at all. He flashed and shuttled among the wolves like a ghost. The long sword in his hand flew up and down, and every swing brought a splash of blood.
After a hard fight, Chu Mochen finally killed all the Swift Wind Wolves. He didn't have time to catch his breath and continued to move deeper into the mountains. The deeper he went, the stronger the spiritual power fluctuations became, and the danger increased exponentially.
In a valley, he encountered a second-level monster "Flame Lion". This Flame Lion was huge, with blazing flames burning all over its body. Every attack it made was so hot that the air around it was distorted.
Chu Mochen knew how difficult this battle would be, so he quickly adjusted his state and circulated his spiritual power to form a thin shield on his body. Then, he tapped the ground with his toes and rushed towards the Flame Lion like an arrow, stabbing the long sword in his hand straight at the Flame Lion's throat.
The flaming lion was not to be outdone, it opened its bloody mouth and spewed out a thick column of flames, sweeping towards Chu Mochen. Chu Mochen dodged to the side, avoiding the attack of the column of flames, and at the same time, the long sword in his hand drew an arc in the air and slashed fiercely on the back of the flaming lion.
However, the flaming lion had thick skin and flesh, and the sword did not cause fatal damage to it. After feeling the pain, it became even more violent, digging its claws at the ground, stirring up a cloud of dust, and then pounced towards Chu Mochen.
Chu Mochen flipped in the air and landed steadily on the ground. His eyes were solemn, and he was thinking about countermeasures in his heart. Suddenly, he had an idea and found a flaw in the attack of the Flame Lion. When the Flame Lion pounced again, he pretended to dodge to the left, causing the Flame Lion to shift its center of gravity. Then he suddenly dodged to the right and stabbed the Flame Lion's abdomen with the long sword in his hand.
The flaming lion screamed, struggled for a few times, and then fell to the ground. Chu Mochen let out a long sigh, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and continued to move forward.
After going through untold hardships, Chu Mochen finally found the Spirit Crystal Jade in a secret cave in the Sunset Mountains. The Spirit Crystal Jade emitted a soft light and contained extremely rich spiritual power. Chu Mochen carefully put it away and put it into a special storage ring, with a gratified smile on his face.
In addition to this spiritual crystal jade, he also heard that in a mysterious relic, there was a long-lost cultivation experience book, which was said to have unique insights into the use of spiritual power by Judan realm monks. This relic was located in a vast desert, where sandstorms raged all year round, the environment was extremely harsh, and there were many mysterious prohibitions to protect it.
Chu Mochen rushed to the desert without stopping. As soon as he stepped into the desert, he felt a wave of heat coming towards him. The sand under his feet was extremely hot, and every step was extremely difficult. The wind was howling, rolling up the yellow sand all over the sky, blocking people's vision.
After walking in the desert for several days, Chu Mochen finally found the entrance to the ruins with his tenacious perseverance and accurate sense of direction. However, the entrance was blocked by a powerful ban, which flashed with mysterious runes and emitted powerful spiritual fluctuations.
Chu Mochen calmed down and carefully observed the runes on the restriction. With his profound knowledge and past experience, he gradually figured out how to break the restriction. He formed seals with his hands, muttered something, and streams of spiritual power shot out from his hands and hit the restriction.
As he continued to work hard, the rune light on the ban gradually dimmed and finally dissipated. Chu Mochen successfully entered the ruins. Inside the ruins, he encountered various traps. In some places, the ground would suddenly collapse, some walls would shoot out dense hidden weapons, and some rooms would be filled with mind-distracting smoke.
But Chu Mochen relied on his extraordinary wisdom and agility to escape danger again and again. In the deepest part of the ruins, he found the long-awaited cultivation experience. The ancient book had yellowed paper and exuded an ancient atmosphere. Chu Mochen excitedly held it in his hands, as if holding the hope of reconciliation with Yun Yao.
With these precious gains, Chu Mochen returned to the sect with great joy. He immediately rushed to the secret room where Yun Yao was practicing and continued to guard it silently.
He knew that Yun Yao was now fully devoted to cultivation and working hard to break through the Judan realm. He didn't want to disturb her. He only wanted to express his feelings to her the moment she came out of retreat and let her know that he would always be by her side.
As the days passed, Chu Mochen always stayed where he was, rain or shine. He looked at the stone door of the secret room, silently praying that Yun Yao could break through soon, and also hoping that she would give him a chance to get back into her heart.
Finally, on a sunny morning, the stone door of the secret room swayed slowly, and a familiar figure appeared at the door. Chu Mochen stood up suddenly, his eyes full of excitement and expectation, holding the gift prepared for Yun Yao tightly in his hand, and walked towards her quickly.
