Dream King

Chapter 70

This smile made Mo Mo slightly lose his composure, but it also piqued his interest. He had seen many beautiful women, including Bai Qian, the nine-tailed white fox from Qingqiu, who was hailed as the most beautiful woman in the world. However, even Bai Qian, who was hailed as the most beautiful woman in the world, only impressed him and made him sigh. But now that his cultivation level had soared, he was so captivated by a woman. Mo Mo felt that with his cultivation level in the Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms world, if this woman was willing, he would undoubtedly become her most loyal follower.

Just then, the woman parted her lips slightly, and her clear and gentle voice reached Mo Mo's ears, "Nuwa has met you here, fellow Daoist. I hope you will come out to meet me."

Upon hearing the woman's words, Mo Mo was instantly stunned. His mind went blank, with only the name 'Nuwa' echoing in his head. After a long while, Mo Mo finally came to his senses and appeared before Nuwa with a somewhat complicated expression.

As a Chinese person, there must be very few who do not know who Nuwa is. Now, the creator of humankind in mythology, who created humans from clay, suddenly appears in front of him, catching him off guard.

"Fellow Daoist, Nuwa apologizes for what happened earlier and hopes you will forgive me. However, in order to get you to come out, I had no choice but to resort to this tactic." Nuwa smiled and apologized to Mo Mo.

After calming his inner turmoil, Mo Mo finally spoke, "It is my honor that you have come here, fellow Daoist. Please."

Mo Mo led Nuwa to one of the houses, and after they sat down, Mo Mo asked, "May I ask what brings you here, friend?"

"I was bored and happened to come across this jade pendant. I liked it, so I came to relax. I hope I haven't disturbed you, fellow Daoist," Nuwa replied with a charming smile.

Mo Mo wondered if it was just his imagination, but after chatting with Nuwa for a while, he noticed that Nuwa seemed less dignified and more lively.

Gradually, Mo Mo also let go of his burdens and stopped treating her as the mother of mankind, but as an equal.

At that moment, Nuwa suddenly asked, "Fellow Daoist, you have not yet become a saint!"

Although Nuwa used a question, her tone was quite certain, and Mo Mo did not hide anything, openly telling Nuwa his true cultivation level.

After receiving Mo Mo's confirmation, Nuwa covered her round little mouth in surprise. Although she had guessed it before, she was still shocked when Mo Mo confirmed it.

It should be noted that although this was only her avatar and her cultivation had only reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, her vision and knowledge were not diminished in the slightest. Even with her original cultivation as a Saint, she could not travel freely throughout the myriad realms, not even Hongjun, who had merged with the Dao. But Mo Mo, with his cultivation not even reaching the level of a Saint, had done it, which could not help but surprise her.

Although a Great Luo Golden Immortal is said to be able to travel through all the heavens and myriad worlds, they are limited to the many worlds of this Hongmeng Universe. However, Mo Mo can travel between different Hongmeng Universes. Before this, she had already visited the world of the Western pantheon, which benefited her greatly.

"Fellow Daoist, how did you do that? Could you... Although I know this is presumptuous, if you agree, I can become your Daoist partner. Otherwise, with your cultivation level, you might not be able to control the situation!" Nuwa looked at Mo Mo with a charming smile.

Mo Mo: "..." Did I just hear wrong? Was I hallucinating? Nuwa is actually willing to become my Daoist partner! Should I agree? If I agree, will I be beaten to death by the others? If I don't agree, will she beat me to death?

"Don't doubt it. As long as you agree to my request, I can become your Daoist partner. I believe that since you can easily grant others the ability to travel through countless worlds, you should be able to fulfill my request as well." Nuwa's words answered Mo Mo's question, but also raised even greater questions in her mind.

"Why?"

"Why what?" Nuwa asked, puzzled by Mo Mo's question.

"I mean, why use such conditions? Given your status, there's no need for this. Besides, you should know you could easily exchange other rare and precious treasures for me. As long as you're willing to pay a certain price, I generally won't refuse. Why..."

"Why choose the stupidest method, right?" Nuwa interrupted Mo Mo with a smile.

Mo Mo nodded solemnly, then looked at her with a questioning gaze.

Nuwa did not answer his question, but sighed leisurely: "Have you tried for countless eons without any progress in your cultivation? Have you tried for countless eons all alone? Everyone says that I am the mother of the human race, a saint who is high above, but who understands that I am also a woman? I was once a little girl who needed protection. I was not born a saint!"

Looking at Mo Mo, who seemed to be deep in thought, Nuwa continued, "So, do you understand now? I believe in your potential, and I believe even more in my own judgment. I won't be wrong. By following you, I will definitely be able to transcend and reach a higher level, because right now, I have no other desires but to pursue a higher level."

"I'll give it a try! Could you tell me what you need so I can see if I can do it?"

Mo Mo said excitedly, "You know, this is Nuwa, the living Nuwa. Although I don't know which world's Nuwa she is, just the name Nuwa alone is worth investing in. When she gets any innate treasure here, it will be enough for Mo Mo to live on for a long time."

“It’s very simple. I want to have the same ability as you to travel through all the worlds, instead of this jade pendant that is full of limitations.” Nuwa said with a charming smile, but she gave Mo Mo a big problem. After all, he was not his cheap master. He could not give his abilities to others. At most, he could only make things like jade pendants.

Chapter 156 Someone Brings a Pillow When You're Sleepy

Looking at the beautiful and charming Nuwa, Mo Mo felt helpless because he really couldn't do it, at least not with his current cultivation level. So, although it was a pity, Mo Mo still decided to tell the truth.

"You mean you can't do it yet? When will you be able to reach that level?" Nuwa asked Mo Mo quickly after understanding the situation.

"It might take a long time, because I'm not entirely sure, but I estimate it should be around when I reach the Immortal King, or Saint, realm." Mo Mo carefully considered the current situation and finally came to this conclusion.

"The Saint level? Judging from your aura, you should be at the Quasi-Saint level. How long do you think it will take you to reach the Saint level?" Nuwa looked at Mo Mo with anticipation. After all, she didn't know how fast Mo Mo cultivated. Different worlds have different methods of becoming a Saint, some fast and some slow.

Take Shi Hao, for example. How long did he cultivate before becoming an Immortal Emperor? On the other hand, Dongbo Xueying, a lord, has been cultivating for countless millennia and still hasn't transcended. Although Nuwa doesn't know these things, she does know that the breakthrough methods for each system are different, so she can't be sure how long it will take for Mo Mo to achieve this.

"I don't know either. Maybe it will take thousands of years, maybe tens of thousands of years, maybe hundreds of thousands of years, but it could also be just a few days. It depends on your choice," Mo Mo replied to Nuwa's question with a smile.

Nuwa was very puzzled, so she stared at Mo Mo with her eyes as vast as the Milky Way, looking on with a look of disbelief, as if to say, "If you don't explain yourself, I'll make you regret it."

"Uh..." Faced with Nuwa's attitude, Mo Mo broke out in a cold sweat. She was really scared because if they really started fighting, she really couldn't beat her. However, Nuwa didn't intend to fight. She was just expressing her dissatisfaction with Mo Mo's promise to leave half of her body.

Although he knew Nuwa wouldn't really do anything to him, Mo Mo quickly explained, "Although I don't know how long it will take me to reach that level, I can take you to other worlds or back to my world! I don't know the exact principle, but no matter how long I stay in other worlds, not much time will pass in my world, at most ten days or half a month. So you can choose to wait in my world, or you can continue your adventure, or rather, your journey."

“I suggest you go to my world and wait there. I have my confidante there, and there’s also a beautiful little world where the time flow is the same as mine. Plus, you have the jade pendant. If you get bored there, you can go play in other worlds. Anyway, you have another world to bind to, so you can bind to my world.”

Mo Mo strongly urged Nuwa to go to the mortal world because he suddenly realized that this was a win-win situation. Not only would it save Nuwa the waiting time, but it would also allow her to teach her disciples and confidantes how to cultivate. Although Mo Mo had given the women abundant resources and many complete inheritances, they had to figure out how to cultivate on their own because Mo Mo usually traveled to other worlds. There was no professional person to teach them.

If Nuwa were to come to the mortal world and live in the small world, the women would essentially have a teacher at the level of a saint. Mo Mo believed that once Nuwa entered Mo Mo's small world, she wouldn't easily leave, because Mo Mo had placed all his collections from various worlds into the small world, especially some cultivation manuals. These things were exactly what Nuwa needed, and with information so readily available in the mortal world, she should be able to gain a good amount from the numerous imaginative novels.

Mo Mo was urging her to go to the mortal world. Nuwa wasn't stupid; how could she not see through it? So Nuwa directly asked, "Why do you want me to go to your world so badly?"

Mo Mo didn't hide anything and frankly said, "I have some confidantes in my world. Since I travel through countless worlds all year round, although I have left them with many books and cultivation resources, no one has taught them. So I thought I would teach them some while you are waiting there. However, it won't be without benefits for you. There are many cultivation books of different systems from various worlds there, which should be of great benefit to you."

"So you want me to be the guide for all your female confidantes? Don't forget, I'm going to be your Daoist partner in the future. Aren't you afraid I'll get jealous and cripple them all? You should know that I'm a woman too." Nuwa leaned close to Mo Mo and breathed sweetly.

"Forehead……"

Looking at the stunningly beautiful face before him, Mo Mo was momentarily at a loss. Although she was the mother of humanity, she was not some Western saint. After all, King Zhou had been ruined because she had sent the three demons from Xuanyuan Tomb to wreak havoc on the court after he wrote a poem at the Nuwa Temple. However, Mo Mo did not believe that Nuwa would really be jealous of his other women. She had been a saint for so long, how could she not see through such things?

So Mo Mo smiled and said, "I believe that Your Majesty, with your heart set on the universe and your magnanimity, would not hold a grudge against a group of juniors."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I didn't realize you were so worried about your confidantes. Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for them. Alright, send me over there. I'm really looking forward to your world and your confidantes. But your honesty makes me very happy, so I'll give you a reward." With that, Nuwa quickly kissed Mo Mo, who was already very close, leaving a very sexy lip print on his face.

Looking at Nuwa, who seemed to have successfully pulled off some prank and was beaming with joy, Mo Mo was stunned. It was somewhat like what Nuwa had said: she was also a woman, capable of being coquettish and jealous. However, her position was far too high, so high that no one had the right to make her act coquettishly or jealous.

After sending Nuwa back to the small world of the mortal realm, Mo Mo returned to his cave in the world of the Lotus Lantern. Now that he had gained something unexpected, Mo Mo didn't want to stay in the cave any longer. Thinking that he didn't have a mount or weapon yet, and remembering the wealth of the Four Seas, Mo Mo decided to go for a stroll in the sea.

Mo Mo left the cave and headed east, arriving at the East Sea in no time. Looking at the boundless, surging blue waves, Mo Mo was troubled. He could take unclaimed property without a second thought, but the East Sea had no grudge against him, so he couldn't just attack it directly. Exchanging something for it, on the other hand, left him without a legitimate reason, which truly troubled him.

After thinking it over, Mo Mo decided to go down first and see what happens. If the Dragon King didn't know what was good for him, he would be lucky to have a mount.

After entering the water, Mo Mo continued forward, catching a large batch of seafood he saw, such as lobsters and bluefin tuna, as long as they had not yet developed spiritual consciousness. With so much seafood rich in spiritual energy, how could he not catch a batch to live up to his reputation as a foodie?

Just as Mo Mo was happily picking and choosing seafood, a huge figure quietly approached him. Mo Mo seemed not to notice it and continued his seafood-catching business, completely unmoved.

"Closer, closer, closer and closer, just a little bit more and we're there!" Whale Three roared excitedly in its heart as it watched the figure getting closer and closer. With a roar, Whale Three bit down on the stupid human.

Whale Three was quite confident in his ability to devour prey, as it was his innate divine power—the ability to swallow the world whole. This divine power had never disappointed him; no prey he had ever targeted had ever escaped, including the giant whale guarding the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Whale Three still remembers very clearly that he was just a whale demon who had only cultivated for two or three hundred years. At that time, he was hiding in his cave to cultivate when suddenly, a series of loud noises came from outside his cave. The earth shook and the cave was about to collapse, but the huge pressure coming from outside made him dare not make any move, including running away.

After a long while, the outside quieted down. Whale Three waited for several more hours before daring to sneak out. However, he was stunned by what he saw outside. The once lush coral reefs had completely disappeared from the world, replaced by one large pit after another. What made his pupils shrink even more was that not far from his cave, there was a blue whale, smaller than him, but whose aura made him unable to help but submit. However, the whale was obviously seriously injured that day, and its huge mouth almost split him in two.

The whale clearly spotted Whale Three, but didn't pay him any attention, focusing only on healing its wounds. However, the whale's gaze was somewhat wary. Just then, the whale's blood drifted down the seawater and landed in front of Whale Three. The blood seemed to possess a captivating charm, drawing Whale Three in. He then realized that it stemmed from the deepest desire within his body. He understood that if he ate that whale, he could advance further.

So, taking advantage of the whale's inattention, he spent three days slowly moving to the whale's side, then gathered all his strength and smashed directly into the wound. Afterward, he even used his innate ability to bite the whale.

After completely refining the whale, he learned that it was a guardian of the East Sea Dragon Palace, which frightened him for a long time. However, when he found that no one was bothering him, he became bolder and started to move around again. Relying on this ability, he became a tyrant in the sea, and many ships at sea suffered from his wrath. Moreover, he was extremely slippery, which gave the Dragon Palace a lot of headaches.

However, when he used his magic to refine the person he had just eaten, he discovered something was wrong, because his stomach was completely empty; there wasn't even a shrimp, let alone a person. Just then, a voice rang in his mind.

"Judging from the heavy sins you bear, and the way you came here so quietly, I suppose many of the monsters around here have suffered at your hands. They'll just use you as a stepping stone." Then, Whale Three felt a sharp pain in his head, his vision went black, and he lost consciousness.

Mo Mo clapped his hands and, dragging the tail of the giant whale he had knocked unconscious with a single punch, headed towards the East Sea Dragon Palace.

Chapter 157 Dragon Palace Treasure Exchange

In the deep sea, a magnificent palace complex, with its roof of golden glazed tiles, walls of pure crystal, paved with beautiful jade, pillars of gold, and decorated with coral and pearls, exudes a soft glow. Outside the palaces, schools of fish swim freely, and luminous jellyfish dance gracefully, creating a scene of exquisite beauty.

Just then, the fish that had been swimming freely seemed to be startled and scattered in an instant. Then, a huge figure slowly emerged from the darkness. When the shadow was fully revealed, the shrimp soldiers and crab generals who came out to investigate were utterly astonished.

Because they saw that Whale Three, which had been giving them quite a headache, had now revealed its enormous form, which was nearly a thousand meters long. What surprised them the most was that Whale Three was being dragged by its tail, just like an ant dragging a cow. Moreover, Whale Three was not resisting at all, and they didn't know whether it was dead or alive.

Putting everything else aside, the sheer power terrified them. This whale was nearly a thousand meters long, and given its thick skin and tough flesh, it must have weighed at least several hundred thousand kilograms, far heavier than the Sea-Stabilizing Needle. Yet this person dragged it away so easily, and with just one hand. So these shrimp soldiers and crab generals dared not delay and hurriedly went inside to report to the Dragon King.

Perhaps it was because Mo Mo had a Sun Wukong, the old Dragon King appeared exceptionally quickly, and his entourage consisted entirely of experts from the Dragon Palace. It seemed he intended to intimidate Mo Mo and show him that the Dragon Palace was not to be trifled with, and that he should think twice before causing trouble.

When Mo Mo dragged Whale Three closer, the Dragon King bowed to Mo Mo and said, "I was unaware of your presence, Immortal. I apologize for not welcoming you properly. I will present you with a small gift later to express my remorse."

Mo Mo nodded, thinking to himself that the old Dragon King was indeed shrewd; he had both flexed his muscles and given the other party a way out. Even if they had really come looking for trouble, they probably wouldn't dare to make a move now, except for the simple-minded ones, of course. So Mo Mo directly confessed, "Originally, I came to ask you, Old Dragon King, to exchange some things, but we don't know each other, and I was afraid that coming here rashly would cause some misunderstanding. Just as I was racking my brains, this stupid fish actually delivered itself to my door. Old Dragon King, you won't blame me for taking matters into my own hands, will you?"

The old Dragon King was taken aback by Mo Mo's words, then burst into laughter and said, "It is my honor that you have come, Great Immortal. This fish demon has been a real headache for us. Your capture of him is a great help to us! Please, let's go inside the hall to talk."

Afterwards, Mo Mo casually tossed Whale Three aside and followed the Old Dragon King into the Crystal Palace. Along the way, Mo Mo couldn't help but marvel at the extravagance of the Dragon Clan. Things like basketball-sized luminous pearls and ten-thousand-year-old corals were everywhere. Even the floor underfoot was made of ten-thousand-year-old warm jade. The chairs in the palace were mostly made of precious immortal wood that was over a thousand years old. It was extremely luxurious, which made Mo Mo even more excited.

After chatting with the Dragon King for a long time, Mo Mo finally made the request to exchange treasures. The old Dragon King, probably wanting to win Mo Mo over, waved his hand and said, "It is my good fortune that the Great Immortal can take a liking to the things in my Dragon Palace. How can I let the Great Immortal spend money? Take whatever the Great Immortal likes."

Mo Mo was momentarily tempted upon hearing the old Dragon King's words. He wanted to tell the East Sea Dragon King that he had his eye on the entire Dragon Palace and asked if he could take it all with him. However, he knew this was impossible, so he silently handed a list to the Dragon King.

The old Dragon King smiled and took the list. After looking at it for a moment or two, his eyes widened in shock as he exclaimed, "Great Immortal, you didn't make a mistake on this list?"

Mo Mo glanced at the list in the Dragon King's hand and replied, "That's right!"

Mo Mo's nonchalant answer almost made the old Dragon King vomit blood. Other rare and precious herbs and treasures were one thing, but the Dragon Palace's collection of many years could easily meet Mo Mo's requirements. But what the hell were those two thousand catties of dragon fruit and one thousand catties of dragon blood ginseng that were over a thousand years old?

He had never heard of this thing being sold by weight. You see, they had only managed to save tens of thousands of Dragon Transformation Fruits since ancient times. If you convert one Dragon Transformation Fruit to two ounces, that's only a little over two thousand pounds. You see, while that thing was useless to him, it was an unimaginable treasure for other aquatic creatures, and for the dragon race, it was a divine object that could purify their bloodline.

As for Dragon Blood Ginseng, it is even more precious. It can only grow in the Dragon Tomb, and can only be harvested once every thousand years. Each time, only a few hundred can be collected. Every time the Dragon Tomb is opened, the Four Seas fight tooth and nail. That thing contains a large amount of pure dragon energy, which is of great use to them. They basically use it as soon as they get it. Even the Dragon Palace doesn't have much. Mo Mo asked for a thousand catties. If it weren't for the fact that the old Dragon King has cultivated his mind and temper over the years, he would have cursed Mo Mo long ago.

Seeing that the old Dragon King's expression was a bit off, Mo Mo asked, "What's wrong, Old Dragon King? Is something the problem?"

"Well, the rest is fine, but we really don't have that many Dragon Transformation Fruits and Dragon Blood Ginseng. Moreover, these things are very important to our Dragon Palace, and we really can't afford to give them that many. So, Immortal..." The old Dragon King stammered.

Mo Mo understood, but he didn't expect the old dragon king to be able to take out so much. He was just trying his luck. As for how much he could get, Mo Mo didn't care at all. But if possible, the more the better.

So he waved his hand and took out three bottles of pills, then said indifferently, "How many can you take out, Old Dragon King?" He then gestured for the Dragon King to open the three bottles of pills and take a look.

With a look of suspicion, the old Dragon King opened the first bottle of pills, took a sniff, and quickly closed it. Although he did not know how to refine pills, he had taken quite a few. He knew that this bottle of pills had similar effects to the Dragon Transformation Fruit, but was much stronger and would work for him.

He then opened the second, slightly smaller jade bottle, took a sniff, and his face lit up with excitement. Just one sniff had made his blood start to boil. One could imagine that after taking it, his bloodline would be purified and his magical power would greatly increase.

Then, with a heart full of trepidation, he reached for the smallest jade bottle, the one that was only the size of a thumb.

After calming himself down, the Dragon King of the East Sea opened the last bottle. The moment he opened it, a powerful pressure emanated from it, almost causing him to kneel down. It was a suppression from the level of bloodline, which proved that the thing inside was of a much higher bloodline level than him.

When the old Dragon King trembled as he put the cap back on the bottle, his clothes were soaked with sweat. Looking at Mo Mo, who remained calm and composed, the East Sea Dragon King was filled with respect for him. He then decided that he would replace the bottles of pills even if it meant going bankrupt, and he would do everything in his power to get closer to Mo Mo.

After making the decision, the Dragon King of the East Sea left behind only the necessary ones, and ordered the Turtle Prime Minister to fetch all the other Dragon Transformation Fruits and Dragon Blood Ginseng, which were then handed over to Mo Mo.

Mo Mo took the package handed over by the Turtle Prime Minister, examined it, nodded in satisfaction, and then took out three more jade bottles identical to the previous ones, placing them on the table. He said, "Dragon King, is it alright if I exchange these six bottles of pills for these things?"

The Dragon King of the East Sea nodded like a chick pecking at rice, saying, "Alright, of course. If there's anything else that you'd like, Great Immortal, you can exchange it for these pills."

Mo Mo thought for a moment and said, "Let's exchange this much for now. I've only refined these few bottles of pills. I'll come back to exchange with you again when I've refined more pills."
