Twelve hours later, Xiao Mu, who had entered the Putuo Temple with the help of an entry token, still felt lingering fear.

It was too horrific!

At the opening time of Putuo Temple, countless mutated beings rushed towards the temple simultaneously.

Dominant figures from all tribes acted at the same time, frantically killing mutants from other tribes to prevent them from entering Putuo Temple.

One after another, the mutants at the peak of the Third Realm were slaughtered, and in front of Putuo Temple, a gruesome scene of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood unfolded in an instant.

Comparatively, Xiao Mu had a much easier time entering.

The monk Qing Yan used Buddhism to release a golden Buddha illusion that firmly protected Xiao Mu. Without any danger, he easily passed through the gates of Putuo Temple and entered.

After standing in silence for a moment, Xiao Mu finally recovered from the horrific scene. He took a deep breath before releasing the Fire Dragon Vehicle and driving towards the place he had agreed to meet Chen Yanli.

It was unknown how Chen Yanli managed to enter, but undoubtedly she must have paid a considerable price, and it certainly was not as easy as it was for Xiao Mu.

After Xiao Mu arrived at the agreed meeting place and waited for a while, he saw Chen Yanli appear from the fringes of Putuo Temple, looking extraordinarily disheveled.

"Mr. Xiao, hello! I didn't expect you to enter so easily!"

Chen Yanli greeted him respectfully.

"Get in."

Xiao Mu wasn't interested in idle chatter and simply beckoned for Chen Yanli to get into the vehicle.

"Thank you, Mr. Xiao!"

Chen Yanli looked at the Fire Dragon Vehicle with surprise.

She practiced Buddhism, and though Buddhism and Taoist Law are different, they have their similarities. So, she immediately recognized that the Fire Dragon Vehicle beneath Xiao Mu's feet was a magical implement.

Moreover, it was a high-end magical implement among those of its kind, although due to some restriction, this magic tool was not complete.

She got in the vehicle immediately.

As soon as Chen Yanli got in, Xiao Mu immediately started driving the Fire Dragon Vehicle towards their destination.

His first destination was the Immaculate Spring.

In fact, compared to Guanyin Hall, the location of the Immaculate Spring was on the outer area, even closer to the main gate of Putuo Temple.

After visiting the Immaculate Spring and bathing in its spring water, one could improve their constitution and enhance their potential to a certain extent.

This was a fundamental improvement.

For example, regardless of whether a five- or six-year-old child or a strong man trains their body to its limits, the child can definitely not compare to the man.

Bathing in the Immaculate Spring is akin to turning a child into a strong man.

In the end, even if they are in the same realm, Xiao Mu, after bathing in the Immaculate Spring to improve his constitution, would be stronger than mutants in the same realm.

"Mr. Xiao, where are we going?"

Chen Yanli had obviously noticed that the direction Xiao Mu was headed in didn't lead to Guanyin Hall.

"We're going to the Immaculate Spring first."

Xiao Mu explained casually, but his tone quickly became colder, "Miss Chen, I need to make something clear. Although I agreed to escort you to the Guanyin Hall, during this time, you can't instigate trouble or cause problems. Otherwise, don't blame me for disregarding our agreement and killing you first."

Upon hearing Xiao Mu's cold tone, Chen Yanli's expression immediately became serious. She knew Xiao Mu was a man of his word.

She quickly assured him, "Please rest assured, Mr. Xiao. On this journey, I will follow your arrangements. I will do whatever you ask me to and refrain from doing anything you tell me not to."

Xiao Mu was somewhat satisfied and added, "Even if you encounter Xu Jiang, you cannot provoke him."

He was worried that after encountering Xu Jiang, Chen Yanli would deliberately cause trouble, tempting Xu Jiang into attacking her, and then using him to eliminate Xu Jiang.

Moreover, Xu Jiang had allied himself with the Greenfin Clan, and there might be high-ranking Greenfin masters by his side. Xiao Mu didn't intend to bring any unnecessary trouble upon himself.

Chen Yanli hurriedly reassured him, "Rest assured, Mr. Xiao. I promise I won't. But..."

She paused suddenly before asking, "What if Xu Jiang attacks me first?"

Xiao Mu coldly replied, "If he dares to attack you unprovoked, I would handle him."

Although he was not eager to start trouble, he was not afraid either. If Xu Jiang dared to provoke him, Xiao Mu wouldn't mind taking him down.

While the Greenfin Clan was powerful, Xiao Mu himself was by no means weak. Plus, after recently advancing to the later stage of the Peak of Spirit Communication Realm, and with the Taichi Thunder Gang Diagram undergoing a variant, should he need to engage in a real fight, he was confident of defeating an opponent within the same realm, even if that opponent was a powerful being from the Greenfin Clan.

The Fire Dragon Vehicle was incredibly fast. After a few hours, they saw hills ahead veiled by dense fog, from which an intense spiritual energy was released.

This spiritual energy was so strong that it had turned into fog, from which spiritual energy droplets continuously fell.

Despite the distance, Xiao Mu at once felt invigorated.

Every cell in his body seemed to be nourished, showing signs of growth and evolution.

This was a sign of the body being transformed. He hadn't expected to experience this before even entering the Immaculate Spring. What would happen when he bathes in the waters of the Immaculate Spring?

In his joy, Xiao Mu accelerated the Fire Dragon Vehicle towards the Immaculate Spring.

However, after covering some distance, Xiao Mu suddenly stopped the Fire Dragon Vehicle. His expression turned serious.

His eyes suddenly shot out more than a meter of golden spiritual light towards the direction of the Immaculate Spring.

With the spiritual light filling his eyes, his vision became even stronger.

A powerful energy charged out from the mountains, carrying an endless sacred aura. Through Xiao Mu's eyes, it seemed like there was a great Buddha concealed within.

The Great Buddha emitted a golden Buddha Light, as if dyeing the sky a shocking gold. The golden Buddha Light fell down like streams, protecting the entire top of the mountain, suppressing everything below.

What is this?

Xiao Mu was stunned on the spot, his expression even more serious.

"Mr. Xiao, why have we stopped?"

Chen Yanli was puzzled and looked towards Xiao Mu.

She practiced Buddhism and felt something, albeit not as strongly as Xiao Mu.

After all, she only practiced a superior form of Buddhism, specifically the Jade Buddha Technique, which cultivates a golden body. There was a fundamental difference between this and what Xiao Mu practiced - the "Xuanmen Zhenggang", a Taoist Law specialized in exorcising demons and suppressing evil.

Xiao Mu could easily sense the unusual energy, while she, who cultivated a Buddha Body, could not.

Xiao Mu didn't answer, he just shook his head slightly and stared at the mountainside.

According to the Greenfin Monk, the Immaculate Spring was guarded by a powerful Buddha Power, which opened at fixed times. To his surprise, he had arrived early, the Buddha Power had not yet dispersed, and the Immaculate Spring had not opened.

The Buddha Power that guarded the Immaculate Spring was unrivalled. Even with Xiao Mu's strength, he dared not arbitrarily trespass. Otherwise, he would certainly die. He could only wait quietly for the Buddha Power to dissipate and for the Immaculate Spring to open.

Boom!

Clatter!

The sound of horses' hooves and carriage wheels echoed from the distance behind them. A large group of people had arrived.

Xiao Mu quickly looked back.

From behind, Human Mutants, Evil Ghosts, Zombies, and powerful beings from the Greenfin Clan had all arrived at the same time, amounting to at least twenty to thirty individuals.
