Chapter 161 Calculation
Is he really going to the rumored "Great Jin"? But that place is too far away.

After asking the silver-haired old man about the "Geng Essence", Yin Mo did not reveal his next plan. He only said that his Nascent Soul had been condensed and he planned to travel around and say goodbye to all parties.

The silver-haired old man did not express any doubt about this. He just briefly mentioned the distribution of power in various countries and the list of monks who needed attention, as well as a few old monsters that should not be provoked.

Among them actually included the "Old Monster Tianhen" that Yin Mo had heard of.

Yin Mo was quite curious about these monks, so he took careful notes, thanked them repeatedly, and then said goodbye.

Early the next morning, Yin Mo took a few important items, completely sealed the cave, and left Yunmeng Mountain alone, flying straight towards Yuanwu Kingdom.

There are still clouds and mists around Zidao Mountain, and few people come here.

Taihe City is the nearest ordinary town to Zidao Mountain. It is only a dozen miles in size and has a population of only tens of thousands.

However, whether it is restaurants, inns or other facilities, everything is available.

"A'er" is a waiter at the "Yongqu" inn, one of the two inns in Taihe City. Although he is only eighteen or nineteen years old, he has been working in this industry for three or four years.

He looked a little thin and was leaning against the door of the inn, calling out to passers-by to come and stay at the inn.

This is not because A Er is being lazy, but because it is a hot summer day and it is difficult for anyone to endure the scorching sun. After shouting for a whole morning, he no longer has the energy to greet loudly.

Therefore, even though the shopkeeper Liu, who was known for his stinginess, showed dissatisfaction on his face when he saw Ah Er's state, he only complained in a low voice a few words and then buried his head in calculating the thick account book on the table.

Ah Er looked up at the vast white sky, muttered a few words to himself, then lowered his head and muttered a few words to himself again, he couldn't even hear himself clearly, and seemed even more listless.

He was considering whether he should sneak back to the kitchen and drink some cold water to quench his thirst while Manager Liu was not paying attention.

But at this moment, he suddenly felt the sky darken and the surroundings immediately became cool, which scared Ah Er.

I saw three strange figures appearing before my eyes.

One wore a tall crowned hat and linen clothes, was short and fat, and looked like a big soft ball;

Another one was bald and barefoot, with big eyes and fleshy features, and was at least ten feet tall; the last one had long hair, a murderous face, and cold eyes.

"Would the three gentlemen like to stay at the hotel?"

Ah Er's years of experience helped him quickly recover from his surprise, and he asked with a smile on his face.

Based on his many years of experience in judging people, he knew that although these three people looked ferocious, they were definitely generous guests.

"Nonsense, if the three of us don't need to stay in the hotel, why are we here?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Prepare a first-class guest room for each of us. Then prepare a table of good food and wine and send it to the room."

The short and fat man who looked like a meatball glared with his small eyes, threw a large piece of silver into Ah Er's arms, and said impatiently.

"Yes, yes! My three lords, please come in. The food and wine will be served soon."

"A'er, go and prepare the three best guest rooms for the three adults."

Shopkeeper Liu had already noticed the situation at the door. He quickly ran to the door, snatched the silver from Ah Er's hand, and said with a flattering look on his face.

"Okay, shopkeeper."

Although he was very angry at Manager Liu's behavior, Ah Er could only respond helplessly.

He secretly complained that if he was only good at being an innkeeper and there were only two inns in this city, he would not continue to work for this stingy guy.

After cursing Manager Liu in his heart, Ah Er still led the three people to the room upstairs with a smile on his face, and then left.

"strangeness."

When Ah Er left the three people, he suddenly felt the heat again. He touched his forehead and felt confused.

But after thinking about it, he went downstairs.

A table full of sumptuous food and wine was soon prepared, and Er helped the other waiters to deliver the food and wine into the room.

The three of them sat quietly at the table, not saying a word.

Ah Er looked at them strangely. The monk with long hair seemed to have noticed something and suddenly glared at him coldly.

The look was so cold that it pierced Ah Er's bones, and he was terrified. He lowered his head hastily and left the room in a panic.

Even when he returned to the door of the inn, his heart was still pounding and couldn't calm down.

At this time, the three people in the room finally started talking.

"Brother Yin, why are you using the soul-shocking technique on a mortal? Do you dislike that guy?" After sensing that there was no one outside, the short and fat man said to the man with loose hair with a smile.

"It's nothing. Although this waiter doesn't have good spiritual roots, he should have no problem cultivating to the third or fourth level of the Qi Refining Stage." The monk with untied hair said expressionlessly.

"Spiritual roots? This is a bit unexpected. But after hearing what Brother Yin said, this waiter's aptitude is not that good."

"But you can tell that he has spiritual roots without any contact. That's really amazing." The short and fat monk said with a little surprise.

"Compared to you two fellow Taoists, my cultivation level is not that high. I have only practiced a related secret technique."

The monk with untied hair glanced at the short and fat monk and spoke slowly.

"Brother Yin is too modest. However, a junior with such talent would not have much future even if he entered the world of immortal cultivation."

“Even if you cultivate to the Foundation Establishment stage like us, without the support of a sect, you will be like a lonely ghost. You will be bullied by cultivators of the same level!” The short and fat cultivator sighed and said with a wry smile.

"Yeah." The monk with untied hair nodded indifferently, seemingly unwilling to say more.

Seeing the attitude of the untied-haired monk, the short and fat man couldn't help but look at the bald man, and the bald man also spoke.

"Brother Yin, my brother and I have been walking together since we met. However, after walking together for several days, we only know that you are a casual cultivator with extraordinary cultivation, but we have never heard of your name and origin."

The big man stared at the monk with long hair with his big eyes.

As soon as the big man finished speaking, a gleam of light flashed in the short and fat man's eyes, and he stared at the monk named Yin without blinking.

The monk with long hair remained calm and replied calmly, "I used to practice in Yue Country and only recently came to Yuanwu Country. It is normal that you two fellow Taoists have never heard of my name."

"Yue Kingdom! Isn't that the territory of the Ghost Spirit Sect? Brother Yin, why don't you try the Ghost Spirit Sect, but come to our Yuanwu Kingdom?" The short and fat monk blinked and asked.

"How does Brother Luo know that I haven't been there? I just didn't get any opportunities there."

"Moreover, in Yue Kingdom, the Ghost Spirit Sect occupies a dominant position, and other sects simply cannot gain a foothold. That's why I came to Yuanwu Kingdom to try my luck." The monk with untied hair said calmly.

"I see. It seems Brother Yin has a hard time too." The short and fat man smiled, stopped asking questions, and started discussing some rumors in the world of immortal cultivation.

After finishing the meal, the monk said goodbye and went to the next room to rest. As soon as he walked out of the room, the smile on the short and fat monk's face disappeared, replaced by a hideous look.

He suddenly took out a talisman from his arms, quickly made a few hand seals with his hands, and then waved his hands. The talisman turned into a white light, covering the entire room.

This is a soundproof note!

"Brother Luo, is what that kid said true? Is he really a casual cultivator?" The bald man asked anxiously when he saw the short and fat monk casting a spell.

"A casual cultivator? Absolutely impossible. Most likely he is a disciple of a small sect." The short and fat monk sneered, touched his round chin, and said grimly.

"When we were working together, I noticed that his flying weapon was a top-level magical flying sword."

"He has a lot of storage bags on his waist, all of which are bulging, and some of them are even spirit beast bags."

"How could a casual cultivator possibly possess such an item? Obviously, he is a cultivator from a small sect."

"If they are from a big sect, they are usually arrogant and won't act with us."

"Alas, the power of the demonic sect is strong now, and the cultivators of some small sects dare not act too ostentatiously. They all call themselves casual cultivators and act very low-key."

"They are worried about causing dissatisfaction among the demons and causing the extermination of their clan."

“So, even though this person’s cultivation and magic weapon are not weak, we have never heard of him.” The short and fat monk analyzed proudly.

"Hearing what you said, that guy named Yin is really not a simple person."

"In that case, we can go ahead and act now. Although he is a little wary of us, he will never think that the two of us are hiding our true abilities."

"With the two of us in the middle stage of foundation building, it is easy to deal with an early stage cultivator."

"This kid is asking for trouble. He actually ran into our 'Peng Yi Shuang Xiong'. Of course we can't let him go."

The bald man spoke greedily, with greed flashing in his eyes.

"Of course. But in order to succeed more easily, we'd better lower his guard first."

"If we can succeed in a sneak attack, it will be much easier than a direct battle. So, let's wait a few days before taking action."

"During this time, we can pretend to be friendly with him, and then we can surprise him and win."

The short and fat monk licked his thick lips and said sinisterly.

"Okay, I'll follow your instructions. It seems that even if we can't join a sect this time, we can still get a lot of benefits!"

The bald man seemed to trust the short and fat monk very much, and a satisfied expression appeared on his face.

"Haha, of course. With such a fat sheep coming to our doorstep, how could we, the 'Peng Yi Shuang Xiong', let him go for nothing?"

The short and fat monk also said with a smile, his eyes revealing greed towards the monk with long hair.

While these two men were planning to steal treasure and kill people, in the next room, a monk with untied hair sat cross-legged on the bed with an expressionless face.

However, the plan of the "Peng Yi Duo Evil" came clearly to his ears, but to him, the soundproof cover seemed to be non-existent.

"Since they came to me to die, it's not my fault."

The monk with untied hair opened his eyes slightly, a cold light flashed, and he whispered to himself.

Then, he closed his eyes again and concentrated on breathing in and out.

This monk with untied hair is actually Yin Mo, whose appearance has changed.

Yin Mo came to Yuanwu Kingdom two months ago.

Although he passed through several countries controlled by the good and evil factions along the way, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, as long as he did not take the initiative to cause trouble, his true appearance and cultivation level would naturally not be discovered by others, so he had a smooth journey.

After arriving at Yuanwu Kingdom, he did not rely on his powerful magic power to act rashly, but first obtained information about Yuanwu Kingdom from local cultivators and the market.

After understanding the situation, he waited patiently for more than a month before going there leisurely.

As for the "Peng Yi twin villains", they were encountered on the way.

When they saw the extraordinary magical weapon on Yin Mo's body, they immediately talked to him enthusiastically and proposed to go forward together.

Yin Mo saw through their intentions, but with his level of cultivation, he was not afraid of the two men's plot, so he agreed without hesitation.

Now that they had just checked into the inn, Yin Mo had not yet decided how to deal with the short and fat monk and the bald man, but these two men had already stared at him anxiously.

Yin Mo sneered in his heart, and naturally would not show mercy.

In the next ten days, Yin Mo wandered around with the "Peng Yi Duo" during the day and practiced in the inn at night.

The two men were extremely close to Yin Mo and frequently called him "Brother Yin" as if they had been good friends for many years.

At the same time, many independent cultivators joined the inn.

Although most of the wandering monks are accustomed to outdoor life, there are still some monks who like to enjoy city life and choose to live in inns.

Yin Mo met several independent cultivators who were also staying in the inn.

But when they saw the short and fat monk and the bald man beside Yin Mo, their expressions changed drastically and they immediately moved away from them.

This made Yin Mo feel helpless. It seemed that the reputations of these two people were indeed notorious in the world of independent cultivators.

Seeing this, the short and fat monk and the bald man were afraid that Yin Mo would become suspicious, so they made up some excuses for their discord with other monks and kept pestering Yin Mo, preventing him from contacting other people.

Yin Mo did not express his opinion, but this made the short and fat monk a little suspicious. However, their greedy mentality made them quickly put this doubt behind them.

Two days later, the short and fat monk and the bald man suddenly invited Yin Mo to visit a nearby scenic spot, claiming that the scenery there was charming and should not be missed.

After hearing this, Yin Mo knew that the two men were finally ready to take action, so he agreed without hesitation, and left the inn with them and headed straight for the so-called "scenic spot".

Because there were many cultivators nearby, the two of them took great pains to take Yin Mo along the way until they stopped at a quiet and deserted place in front of a hill.

As soon as he landed, the short and fat monk smiled and said to Yin Mo: "Brother Yin, see it! As long as you pass this mountain, there is a small valley with a clear stream flowing, and exotic flowers and plants. It is definitely..."

Although he was plain in appearance, he was very eloquent and described the valley as magical and extraordinary.

After hearing this, Yin Mo sneered in his heart.

There was indeed a hidden valley beyond the mountain, but Yin Mo discovered through a spiritual scan that in addition to the beautiful scenery, there were also faint fluctuations of spiritual energy, as if a simple magic array had been set up to trap the enemy.
