Chapter 235: Shocked Hu Yan Zhen
“If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, this old man truly wouldn’t dare believe my own eyes…”
Hu Yan Zhen sighed with emotion, already full of admiration for Ling Mo in his heart.
Relying solely on one person’s power to craft such a powerful sect, in the future… his achievements absolutely won’t stop at Titled Douluo.
“Hu Yan Zhen…”
“Hu Yanli…”
“Greetings, Sect Master…”
At this moment, the two hesitated no longer; winner takes all, they had lost.
Ling Mo was willing to spare their lives, this was the greatest boon.
If it were another sect, perhaps… the entire Elephant Armor Sect would already be a river of blood.
“Get up!”
Ling Mo replied indifferently, sitting in his position, already beginning to consider how to reorganize the Elephant Armor Sect.
“Mm! Old Monster, last night’s actions, did they alert anyone else?”
Ling Mo asked.
“In theory, no! The entire operation was extremely rigorous; given my sect disciples’ mobility, it’s impossible it was exposed.
Therefore, those people probably still don’t know what happened…”
Dugu Bo replied seriously; last night they had begun the operation at night, crossing hundreds of miles in just one hour to kill their way to the Elephant Armor Sect.
Even the Elephant Armor Sect disciples hadn’t discovered their tracks, let alone anyone else.
“Very good! Don’t let the news out. Hu Yan Zhen, you continue to take over the Elephant Armor Sect, don’t expose the secret of this matter.
Create an illusion for Spirit Hall that last night… nothing happened, everything remains as it was.
Next, I have one more big move to make, and you… are a key point…”
Hearing Dugu Bo’s report, Ling Mo was delighted inwardly, his smile gradually turning manic.
This time, having subdued the Elephant Armor Sect, who knew who would be next!
Spirit Hall couldn’t be toppled yet, because its existence concerned whether Ling Mo’s plan would succeed.
This was a fuse, and also an important chess piece for Ling Mo.
If Spirit Hall were toppled now, not only would unification of the continent not be achieved, it might even incite public outrage.
Because Spirit Hall’s contributions to the continent were enormous; in the early stage, it played the role of a good fellow.
Only later, after Spirit Hall revealed its ambitions and pushed the continent into a war pattern, would that be the best time for Ling Mo to strike.
“What does Sect Master mean by this?”
Dugu Bo naturally didn’t know Ling Mo’s next move, so he was extremely curious.
“Simple! I want to scheme against Spirit Hall properly and fish some benefits from it…”
With that, Ling Mo whispered something into Dugu Bo’s ear, who knew what he instructed.
After hearing Ling Mo’s words, even Dugu Bo’s old face couldn’t help but want to laugh.
One could only say Ling Mo was still the same Ling Mo, as scheming as ever, fond of calculating against people.
As for the two’s conspiracy, Hu Yan Zhen and Hu Yanli exchanged glances, not knowing what they were up to.
They only heard Ling Mo say: “Hu Yan Zhen, you can go back soon, retake control of the Elephant Armor Sect, pretend nothing happened.
If anyone from Spirit Hall comes to you, just handle it as usual.
Especially that old fellow Salas; that old fellow is very shrewd, try not to expose anything…”
“Understood…” Though Hu Yan Zhen didn’t understand what Ling Mo was up to, he could imagine Ling Mo definitely had some scheme targeting Spirit Hall.
Now… he was thoroughly convinced; he had originally thought Ling Mo targeted the Elephant Armor Sect only because of past grudges.
In reality, he was wrong; what Ling Mo aimed for was far more than just one Elephant Armor Sect.
He even dared to scheme against Spirit Hall, showing how terrifying this man’s ambitions were.
“As for Hu Yanli, you stay on the mountain for now!
Perfectly, there’s a training ground on the mountain that will greatly aid your cultivation…”
After thinking it over, Ling Mo still decided to keep Hu Yanli on the mountain, specially assigning a Yin Soldier to guard him, otherwise he wouldn’t feel at ease.
Only with Hu Yanli on the mountain would Hu Yan Zhen obediently work for him.
Hu Yan Zhen naturally understood this reason and was powerless to refute, only able to pray to quickly gain Ling Mo’s trust.
Only then would Hu Yanli regain his freedom.
“Training ground? Sect Master, what kind of training ground is that?”
What Hu Yanli focused on was different from Hu Yan Zhen; he had just heard Ling Mo mention a training ground.
Seeing Hu Yanli ask, Ling Mo and Dugu Bo exchanged glances.
Hooked!
The two firmly believed that anyone who witnessed the training ground, even if driven down the mountain, might not be willing to leave.
With the training ground’s heaven-defying cultivation speed, even Dugu Bo was astonished, let alone Hu Yan Zhen and the others.
“The training ground gathers Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, Spiritual Power and other eight characteristics, a special training ground for eight elements.
You, being a power and defense-type Soul Master, can cultivate in the two extreme domains of Metal and Earth.
The training ground’s cultivation speed is incredibly fast; just one day of cultivation equals a normal person’s one month of progress.
Moreover, it has specialized tempering for elemental power, providing extremely high assistance…”
After hearing Ling Mo’s introduction, Hu Yan Zhen and Hu Yanli were speechless, their faces full of disbelief.
Did such a training ground really exist in this world?
“In a bit, Elder Dugu will take you to visit it, but… to enter the training ground for cultivation, you must follow Ghost Gate’s rules.
Only those who make contributions to the sect are qualified to enter the training ground for cultivation…
Alright! Enough idle talk, I’ve said what needs saying; next, it depends on your performance.
If satisfied, I won’t skimp on the benefits for you!”
Hearing Ling Mo speak so seriously, Hu Yan Zhen and Hu Yanli grew increasingly interested in this training ground.
They couldn’t wait to visit it right now.
After explaining everything, Dugu Bo took them to visit, also satisfying their curiosity.
The moment they witnessed the training ground, Hu Yan Zhen’s old face finally showed emotion.
“Heavens! There’s actually such a miraculous training ground in this world.”
Now thinking about it, the power of Ghost Gate disciples wasn’t without reason.
Previously he still felt frustrated, wondering why Ghost Gate disciples could control the entire Elephant Armor Sect so quickly.
Now… after witnessing the terror of the training ground, Hu Yan Zhen was convinced.
“Father, I want to stay on the mountain to cultivate…”
Hu Yanli said excitedly, itching to enter the training ground to cultivate right now.
After losing to Ling Mo last time, he had cultivated very diligently every day.
And after witnessing the surging power of the training ground, he could no longer hold back.
The two looked to Dugu Bo together, seeking his opinion.
“Go ahead!”
Dugu Bo replied flatly, thinking to let them experience it first, then slowly guide them to work for the sect.
With the temptation of the training ground ahead, he believed… Elephant Armor Sect disciples would soon be unwilling to leave the mountain, willing to take root in Ghost Gate.
And now, most people in the Elephant Armor Sect were actually Ghost Gate disciples.
Since Ghost Gate had secretly taken over the Elephant Armor Sect, it naturally wouldn’t leave it unattended.
Most core disciples had been brought up the mountain, with only a few left at headquarters, and the headquarters area was also controlled by Ghost Gate disciples.
