Chapter 278 Rebuilding the Gu God Palace
Jiang Mo stood by the window, gazing into the distance: "Not only that, I also plan to rebuild the 'Gu God Temple' as the headquarters of the alliance."
"The Temple of the Gu God?" Chen Duo and Wei Duoduo asked in unison.
Jiang Mo nodded: "According to the Gu God's memories, in ancient times, the Gu God built a temple to gather all the Gu techniques in the world and cultivate successors for the Gu God's lineage."
"Later, due to the betrayal of the Heavenly Gu Sect leader and the war, the temple was destroyed, and the lineage was severed."
"Now is the best time to rebuild the temple. Not only can we gather power, but we can also restore the orthodox cultivation system of the Gu God."
The three women were stunned, never expecting Jiang Mo to have such great ambitions.
"Where should the temple be built?" Wei Duoduo asked.
Jiang Mo smiled slightly: "Mount Kunlun."
The place where the true form of the Gu God finally descended was also a sacred land where the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was most abundant.
"But that's a matter for later; the immediate priority is to find the remaining carriers of the dark bloodline."
Jiang Mo turned around, his golden eyes flashing with determination: "I plan to head north first to find the Ice Gu King."
"From the memories of the Gu God, I learned that the Ice Gu King possessed a special Gu technique called 'Frosty Marrow Ice Gu.'"
"It has the ability to freeze the souls of living beings, making it the most dangerous of the six dark bloodline carriers."
"Moreover, the northern regions are about to enter the harsh winter, which is the peak season for ice poison magic; we must act quickly."
Feng Baobao nodded: "When do we set off?"
Jiang Mo pondered for a moment: "Three days from now, I need to fully recover my strength and make some preparations."
"You should also take this opportunity to rest and recuperate; the battles ahead won't be easy."
The three women nodded in agreement and went back to their rooms to rest.
Jiang Mo went to the cultivation room alone, sat cross-legged, and began to recover his strength.
Golden Qi circulated within his body, cycling endlessly, gradually replenishing the energy he had consumed.
Just as Jiang Mo was concentrating on his cultivation, a strange fluctuation suddenly entered his senses.
Jiang Mo suddenly opened his golden eyes, a hint of alertness flashing within them.
"Is someone spying on me?"
He stood up, his palm gleaming with golden light, carefully sensing the source of the fluctuation.
The fluctuations were very faint, as if they came from a very distant place, yet they were incredibly clear in pinpointing Jiang Mo's location.
"Is he the Sect Master of the Heavenly Gu Sect?" Jiang Mo frowned, but then shook his head.
"No, the aura is different; this isn't the power of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master."
"Who could it be?"
Jiang Mo closed his eyes in thought, then suddenly his eyes lit up: "Could it be...?"
He formed a hand seal, his palms radiating golden light: "Golden Gu Divine Power, Seek the Source and Explore!"
The golden light transformed into an invisible thread, tracing back to the source of the fluctuation.
A moment later, Jiang Mo's expression turned extremely solemn: "Just as I thought, it's the 'Heavenly Eye Society'!"
Tianyan Society, a powerful organization on par with the company.
They possess the world's most advanced psychic and divination skills, enabling them to glimpse the future and foresee fortune and misfortune.
According to the memories of the Gu God, in ancient times, the Heavenly Eye Society had cooperated with the Gu God's lineage.
However, for some reason, the two parted ways later.
It's definitely not a good thing that Tianyan has suddenly become interested in Jiang Mo.
"It seems things are more complicated than I imagined. Not only do I have to deal with the Heavenly Gu Sect Master, but I also have to contend with the Heavenly Eye Society's spying."
Jiang Mo took a deep breath, and a golden light flashed in his palm, instantly spreading out a golden barrier that enveloped the entire cultivation room.
"The Golden Gu's divine power has created a barrier that isolates it!"
Golden light flashed, completely blocking the probing fluctuations and making it impossible to sense Jiang Mo's presence anymore.
"I'm safe for now, but since the Sky Eye Society has already noticed me, they'll definitely take action next."
After a moment's thought, Jiang Mo decided not to alarm Feng Baobao and the others to avoid causing unnecessary panic.
He sat cross-legged again, continuing to recover his strength while pondering a solution.
The Heavenly Gu Sect Master, the Heavenly Eye Society, and the company... a three-way power struggle is making the situation increasingly complex.
The next morning, Jiang Mo was practicing a new Gu technique in his cultivation room when he suddenly heard a rapid knocking on the door.
"Jiang Mo, open the door quickly!" It was Wei Duoduo's voice, sounding very nervous.
Jiang Mo frowned and quickly got up to open the door.
"What's wrong?"
Wei Duoduo's expression was grave: "The company just received urgent intelligence."
"A massive and unusually cold wave has occurred within the Arctic Circle, with temperatures plummeting by nearly fifty degrees Celsius!"
"Furthermore, witnesses reported seeing numerous blue lights beneath the ice, like countless eyes watching the world!"
Jiang Mo's pupils suddenly contracted: "The Ice Gu King has begun its operation!"
"Let's go see General Manager Zhao right now!"
Jiang Mo and Wei Duoduo rushed to the conference room, where Feng Baobao and Chen Duo were already waiting.
General Manager Zhao and several senior executives looked solemnly at the satellite images on the large screen.
Images show large patches of blue light on the ice in the Arctic Circle, resembling a giant blue vortex that is slowly spreading.
"Mr. Jiang, you've arrived." Upon seeing Jiang Mo, General Manager Zhao immediately stood up. "This is very bad; this kind of abnormal behavior has never occurred before in our records."
Jiang Mo walked to the screen, a hint of solemnity flashing in his golden eyes: "This is a sign of the Ice Gu awakening; the Ice Gu King is activating a large-scale surge of Frost Marrow Ice Gu."
"At this rate, within a month, the entire Northern Hemisphere will be plunged into extreme cold, causing widespread death and destruction."
"We must act immediately; we cannot wait three days."
General Manager Zhao nodded: "I've already ordered the fastest transportation to be prepared; we can depart at any time."
"At the same time, we also contacted the Nordic branch and asked them to investigate the situation first."
Jiang Mo pondered for a moment: "Mr. Zhao, I need some special items to cope with the extreme cold environment."
He took out a list of various strange materials and medicines.
General Manager Zhao glanced at it and immediately nodded: "No problem, the company has reserves of these things. I'll arrange for someone to prepare them right away."
Just then, the conference room door was suddenly pushed open, and a middle-aged man in a white suit walked in.
The man had a refined and scholarly air about him, with a smile on his face, but his eyes gave off an eerie feeling.
It was as if his eyes were made up of countless tiny runes.
"Excuse me, I'm sorry to bother you all," the middle-aged man said politely.
Mr. Zhao's expression changed: "Lin Tianyan? What are you doing here?"
Lin Tianyan smiled slightly: "Mr. Zhao, don't be nervous. I've come to visit Mr. Jiang Mo on behalf of the Tianyan Association."
His gaze shifted to Jiang Mo, the speed at which the runes in his eyes flowed suddenly increased: "Mr. Jiang, I've long admired your name."
Jiang Mo stared directly into his opponent's eyes without flinching: "President Lin, wasn't last night's spying enough? You had to come in person today?"
Lin Tianyan was taken aback upon hearing this, then burst into laughter: "As expected of the reincarnation of the Gu God, your perception is so sharp."
"Even the Heavenly Eye Society's 'far-seeing technique' can detect it."
