Fantasy: The Great Emperor Comes Back

Chapter 23



C23 – Do You Want to Try??

“Do you want to give it a try?” Mo Changyou whispered into Mo Yunyun’s ear. As a virgin, her body trembled slightly at his words.

Her face turned a deep shade of red.

Mo Changyou, seeing Mo Yunyun’s bashfulness, smiled warmly and stood up. In his past life, the Heavenly Book Monarch had many admirers.

Every day, numerous enchanting women visited the Heavenly Library just to catch a glimpse of him.

However, Mo Changyou had no interest in those women. He was waiting for Qi Wenya to reach the Monarch Stage and produce a lineage of unparalleled strength.

Qi Wenya had risen to become the Forbidden Region Master. She had rallied the Forbidden Zone and vanquished the Heavenly Book Monarch.

“I’ll go pick the Eternal Snow Lotus for you at dawn. But first, you need to do something for me,” Mo Changyou instructed.

“Alright.” Mo Yunyun snapped out of her daze and promptly agreed. She might not have realized when she began to follow Mo Changyou’s commands with such implicit trust.

She regarded Mo Changyou as all-knowing and capable of anything.

“Head to the area thirty feet from the entrance of the Azure Dragon Pagoda. You’ll find a stone tablet there. Dig down two feet and you’ll uncover a pitch-black stone. Retrieve it for me. Upon my return, you will follow my command to shatter that stone,” Mo Changyou directed.

He needed Mo Yunyun for this task because he was under the watchful eye of the Third Elder and others. Every action they took within the Mo family was closely monitored.

Even though Mo Yunyun didn’t grasp the significance of Mo Changyou’s request, she accepted the task without question.

As the sky cleared, Mo Changyou departed from the Mo family, making his way to the Darkness Forest.

“Legend has it that in ancient times, a malevolent demon passed through the Darkness Forest, staining the rocks and turning the entire mountain range into a realm of shadow. The Ferocious Beasts born from this darkness may have grown immensely powerful by absorbing this sinister energy. It’s possible that even beasts of the Spirit Fusion Stage roam the heart of this area,” Mo Changyou mused, poring over the accounts of the Darkness Forest.

“Could this be related to the Forbidden Zone?” he pondered silently, his gaze growing intense.

The circumstances mirrored those of the cultivators in the Forbidden Zone. Filled with undying substances, when a titan of the Forbidden Zone fell, the region would succumb to darkness. The Ferocious Beasts would become more formidable, and the woods would transform into a Darkness Forest.

“Could someone from the Forbidden Zone have perished here?” Mo Changyou pondered aloud as he entered the Darkness Forest.

The trees towered nearly a hundred meters high, their girths massive. Everything, the trees and the soil, was shrouded in darkness.

Even the birds were cloaked in black.

Along the path, he occasionally came across desiccated bones and fresh bloodstains. The sight was horrifying.

Every so often, the roars of ferocious beasts echoed from deep within the woods. Onlookers could spot beasts towering dozens of meters high as they traversed mountain peaks over ten miles away, resembling giants scaling the ridges.

This was the Darkness Forest.

Mo Changyou boldly stepped into the Darkness Forest. At that moment, a black-clad youth emerged from the underbrush about a hundred meters behind him. Clutching a Flying Guillotine, the youth’s eyes bore a brooding gaze as he watched Mo Changyou’s retreating figure.

“The Darkness Forest? You dare to enter with your mere Energy Condensation Level 3? Then meet your end right here in the Darkness Forest!”

A chilling intent to kill crept onto Mo Yangning’s face.

Mo Yangning was determined to personally dispatch this presumptuous man. Back in the Azure Dragon Pagoda, it was Mo Changyou who had lifted the Pagoda’s oppressive force. Otherwise, with Mo Yangning’s Energy Condensation Level 5 strength, he would have easily bested Mo Changyou.

Moreover, Mo Yangning’s cultivation had now advanced to Energy Condensation Level 6, and he was in possession of a top-tier treasure.

“The ‘Man’ Symbol Spell is truly satisfying,” Mo Changyou said with a deep breath and a smile. Observing the white ape he had slain, he activated the Man Symbol Spell, drawing the Vitality from the creature into his body. Mo Changyou’s cultivation was surging, nearly reaching Energy Condensation Level 5.

In ancient times, elite prodigies practiced the “Man” Symbol Spell to achieve rapid breakthroughs in their youth, accelerating their cultivation without wasting a moment.

“The ‘Man’ Symbol Spell is formidable, but it’s only effective at lower levels of cultivation. Once you reach the Spirit Fusion Stage, absorbing Vitality to enhance your cultivation will no longer work,” Mo Changyou mused to himself. He contemplated whether to practice the invincible Secret Arts that resided within his consciousness.

“My current physical condition is far too frail. Attempting to practice those overly potent techniques could shock my meridians, hindering my cultivation progress in the long run. I’ll revisit this issue once the Spirit Energy within me has fully transformed into its liquid form,” Mo Changyou murmured to himself.

It’s not the case that the more techniques and Divine Abilities a cultivator possesses, the stronger they become. Take Mo Changyou, for instance: despite having perused countless texts in his past life, there were few truly invincible techniques that matched his current constitution.

Consider the Secret Arts of the Nine Netherworlds Beast—immensely powerful, capable of splitting the heavens with a mere roar. Yet, Mo Changyou, with his Vajra Body, excels in hand-to-hand combat, making the practice of these Secret Arts an exercise in futility for him.

“Mo Yangning, after such a lengthy pursuit, why not come down and have a word with me?” Mo Changyou called out with a turn and a grin. He parted the grass behind him, peering intently in a specific direction.
