"spirit ring… coalesce!"
With a muffled thud, the space vibrated violently.
Streaks of red light burst forth from the void, quickly converging to form a ring, heading towards the humanoid Soft Bones Rabbit that had already become a phantom.
That ring was the Soft Bones Rabbit's spirit ring.
With the Spirit Bone and spirit ring in place, the Soft Bones Rabbit's body gradually solidified.
A few minutes later.
A young woman with long purple hair, delicate features, and snow-white skin appeared before Mo Yun, lying peacefully on the ice bed.
Seeing this, Mo Yun breathed a sigh of relief.
"It finally succeeded. Now, as long as I give her the Ten headed Fierce Yang Serpent's inner core to consume, she can be completely resurrected."
"Mom!" At this moment, Xiao Wu quickly ran over, embracing her mother, tears welling up with joy.
Mo Yun smiled, then turned and exited the stone house.
"Brother Mo, why did you come out?"
Er Ming scratched his head, asking in confusion when he saw Mo Yun emerge.
"The matter is resolved. Let Xiao Wu and her aunt have some time alone."
"I see." Er Ming was startled, then understood.
"Come on, follow me to water the spirit herbs," Mo Yun said with a smile.
"Alright! I'm best at watering!" Da Ming chuckled foolishly, agreeing.
At the same time.
Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong, who was cultivating, suddenly froze, then spat out a large mouthful of blood with a 'wa' sound, her face turning pale.
"What happened?"
"What happened?"
Bibi Dong spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, her face as pale as paper.
She took a deep breath and concentrated on sensing.
Soon, she caught some clues and quickly opened her spirit ring.
Upon closer inspection of the spirit ring, Bibi Dong felt dizzy and almost fell to the ground.
She found it hard to believe.
"My hundred-thousand-year spirit ring, why has it dimmed so much?"
"It's as if some special energy has been lost, and some important characteristics have disappeared…"
Bibi Dong took a deep breath and turned to look towards the Star Dou Great Forest.
She sensed that the energy lost from her spirit ring was rapidly converging in that direction.
"What did that little rabbit do?"
Her face was ashen, her brows furrowed, and a look of hesitation crossed her face, as if she was contemplating something.
Finally, she snorted coldly and made a decision.
"Hmph, my combat power hasn't suffered much damage."
"I don't have time to deal with that rabbit for now."
"The most urgent matter at hand is to integrate the forces on the continent first."
"I must resolve the Heaven Dou Empire, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School before the next ranking list is announced."
"And support the forces affiliated with Spirit Hall to become the new Upper Three Sects."
"As for the Clear Sky Sect…"
"Heh, let's keep them for now."
Bibi Dong's expression was grim.
It wasn't that she didn't want to attack the Clear Sky Sect.
But the Clear Sky Sect held a geographical advantage, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.
If she forced an attack, the losses would be immense.
Furthermore, although the Clear Sky Sect had sealed its mountain gate, its power was even more concentrated, with countless experts inside. Spirit Hall temporarily couldn't spare so much power to deal with them.
Thinking of this, Bibi Dong's face grew even more somber, and she felt a tightness in her chest.
"Too many things have gone wrong recently."
She took a deep breath and murmured.
"Fortunately, Xue'er's side should have achieved good results, and the Heaven Dou Empire won't be difficult to deal with."
"Now that she has the boost from the second Heavenly Ranking reward, her strength has greatly increased, and there won't be any accidents."
Thinking of Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong's expression became somewhat complex.
Finally, she sighed.
"Oh well, she is my child after all. The mistakes that beast made back then should not be blamed on her."
"These years, she has also suffered greatly…"
Bibi Dong gazed intently at the sun that had just risen on the horizon, her expression finally firming.
"That young man was right."
"Let bygones be bygones."
"Time heals all wounds."
"This matter… let it pass."
A figure appeared in Bibi Dong's mind.
It was a sunny young man wearing a black metal mask and holding a black greatsword.
Although she had only met that young man once, Bibi Dong felt a strong affinity with him.
That day, they talked for quite a while.
The young man seemed to understand her very well.
Every word he spoke could penetrate her heart.
It was precisely because she listened to the young man's words that her heart underwent some changes, and her style of action in recent years became less rigid.
It was because of this that her attitude towards Qian Renxue had changed.
Thinking of this, Bibi Dong's lips unconsciously curved into a smile.
"When Xue'er returns, I'll have a good talk with her."
"She has grown up, and some things should be told to her now."
"I am her mother after all, and what has happened cannot be changed anymore…"
… … … …
Star Dou Great Forest.
Mo Yun held a ladle, scooping water from the spiritual spring to irrigate several immortal-grade plants.
The immortal-grade plants were beautiful, with flowers of various colors, emitting different radiant glows.
The glow reflected on the other spirit herbs, creating a subtle reaction that caused a faint layer of spiritual mist to rise in the valley, illuminated by colorful light, like a fairyland.
Besides those immortal-grade plants, Mo Yun also transplanted many slightly more common spirit plants here, and with the addition of the Life Array, he transformed this place into an earthly paradise.
"Brother Mo, where did you find so many beautiful spirit herbs?"
Er Ming scratched his large head, looking at the glowing spirit herbs in the valley, full of curiosity.
In just a few years, the once ordinary and unremarkable valley had been transformed by Mo Yun into a fairyland, which was simply incredible.
Er Ming was very intelligent and immediately recognized that it was due to the influence of those immortal-grade plants.
Of course, what he didn't know was that, in addition to those few immortal-grade plants, the Life Array laid by Mo Yun also played a crucial role.
"I dug these up from a good place," Mo Yun grinned.
He thought of something happy.
Digging up immortal-grade plants was actually plundering Tang San's luck, and the amount was not small.
After all, in the original work, those few immortal-grade plants played an important role for the Shrek Seven Devils.
At that time, Mo Yun secretly snuck into the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, dug up all of Dugu Bo's precious spirit herbs, and transplanted them here.
Of course, Mo Yun didn't dig them all up at once, but proceeded gradually, going over from time to time.
After all, some immortal-grade plants hadn't reached the suitable time for transplantation and needed to wait for the right moment.
Initially, Mo Yun's actions were very covert and were not discovered by Dugu Bo.
But as time went on, if you walk by the river often, you'll eventually get your shoes wet.
Once, he was caught red-handed by Dugu Bo.
Fortunately, at that time, he had some strength. After activating his spirit ring Spirit Ability, he easily defeated Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo, this guy, was quite to Mo Yun's liking.
Mo Yun didn't make things difficult for him and even cured his poison.
Having cultivated poison arts for many years, Dugu Bo's body had long developed problems; if not treated, he wouldn't have many years left to live.
In the original work, it was Tang San who helped him solve this problem.
Now, naturally, Mo Yun took over, and by the way, harvested a wave of Tang San's luck.
In the original work, Dugu Bo was considered an important supporting character who greatly helped Tang San.
Mo Yun plundered a lot of Tang San's luck from Dugu Bo, and his strength increased significantly.
He didn't cure Dugu Bo all at once.
Instead, he helped him clear the toxins little by little, taking almost a year in total.
After all, things that are obtained too easily are often not cherished.
After getting familiar with Dugu Bo, Mo Yun took the opportunity to meet his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.
Although Dugu Yan was still young at that time, she was already growing into a lovely girl.
And girls of that age were also simple-minded, making them easy to train… ahem, to guide.
Mo Yun established correct life views and values for her.
After some time together, Dugu Yan became attached to Mo Yun, turning into his little shadow, constantly clamoring that she would marry him when she grew up.
Thinking of Dugu Yan, Mo Yun's lips curved slightly.
"So many years have passed, that little girl must have grown up by now, right?"
"In a few days, I'll be going to Tiandou Royal City to see little Xue'er anyway, so I can also visit Dugu Yan."
Thinking of Qian Renxue, Mo Yun frowned slightly.
This girl had sent him more than ten messages in the past two months, saying there was an important matter to discuss.
