Chapter 261 The opponent's strength was only sealed.
Wei Duoduo's mouth dropped open: "That's amazing?"
Jiang Mo waved his hand: "Strength is only one aspect; what's more important is how to use it."
"Although the Heavenly Gu Sect Master has been sealed away, his successors are still active in the world, so our task remains arduous."
All three women nodded, their faces showing determination.
And so, the four embarked on their journey to the far south.
They are preparing to completely seal the remnant soul of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master, while also searching for other possible carriers of dark bloodlines.
This was a long and arduous task, but with Jiang Mo around, they were full of confidence.
Inside the small bottle, the remnant soul of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master lay dormant, as if waiting for something...
The far south is covered in ice and snow all year round, with extremely low temperatures, making it one of the few regions in the world where Gu poisons cannot survive.
For this reason, the company chose to establish a secret base here, specifically to seal dangerous items that cannot be completely destroyed.
After several days of arduous travel, Jiang Mo and his group finally arrived at this icy and snowy land.
"It's so cold!" Wei Duoduo shrank her neck. Although she was wearing thick winter clothes, she still felt a bone-chilling cold.
Chen Duo also felt somewhat uncomfortable, since the power of the Gu God was related to heat, and it would be affected to some extent in such an extremely cold environment.
Only Jiang Mo and Feng Baobao seemed completely unaffected. One of them had powerful Gu God energy within him, which allowed him to regulate his body temperature on his own.
One reason is that the Heavenly Gu Body is inherently adaptable to various extreme environments.
"Hang in there a little longer, the base is just ahead."
Wei Duoduo looked at the GPS in her hand and pointed to a small mountain covered in snow in the distance.
The four quickened their pace and soon spotted an entrance hidden in the snow-capped mountains.
Two fully armed guards stood at the door, warily surveying their surroundings.
"Wei Duoduo, company employee number WXDB-789, is leading a team to carry out a special mission." Wei Duoduo stepped forward and showed her identification.
The guard nodded after a careful examination, then looked at the three people standing behind Wei Duoduo: "Who are they?"
"This is Chen Duo, a special member of the company; this is Feng Baobao, who possesses the Heavenly Gu Body; this is Jiang Mo, the reincarnation of the Gu God," Wei Duoduo introduced them one by one.
"The reincarnation of the Gu God?" The two guards exchanged a surprised glance, then bowed respectfully. "We've long admired your name! Please come in!"
Jiang Mo nodded slightly and followed the guards into the base. The base was spacious and bright, with a comfortable temperature, a stark contrast to the frigid environment outside.
A long corridor leads underground, with various laboratories and sealing rooms on both sides.
The guards led the four to an area called the "Extreme Sealed Zone".
There are stricter security measures here, and multiple identity verifications are required to enter.
"Please wait a moment, I'll go inform the base commander." After saying this, the guard hurriedly left.
A moment later, a middle-aged man in a white lab coat strode over. Upon seeing the four, a flicker of surprise crossed his eyes: "Wei Duoduo? Chen Duo? And...Mr. Jiang Mo?"
Wei Duoduo nodded: "Manager Zhang, we have a special task that requires your assistance."
Supervisor Zhang gestured for him to come in: "Come with me. We can talk about this in my office."
In the office, Wei Duoduo briefly recounted the story of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master.
He then took out the small bottle that sealed the remnant soul of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master.
After hearing this, Manager Zhang's expression turned serious: "The Sect Master of the Heavenly Gu Sect? That's a very important person."
"According to the company's records, he was one of the most dangerous Gu Masters in history, with abilities almost comparable to the Gu God."
Jiang Mo nodded: "That's right. Although his remnant soul has been sealed in this small bottle, there is still a possibility that it will awaken and escape."
"We need to put it in the safest place."
After thinking for a moment, Manager Zhang said, "There is a special sealed chamber at the deepest part of the Extreme Sealing Zone."
"There is the company's most powerful sealing formation there, which can completely isolate all leakage and sensing of power."
"I think that's the most suitable place to seal the remnant soul of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master."
"Great!" Wei Duoduo exclaimed excitedly, "Let's go there right away!"
Manager Zhang shook his head: "It's not that simple."
"That sealing room has a special access mechanism and requires approval from the company headquarters to use."
"I need to report to my superiors, which may take some time."
Jiang Mo frowned: "Time is of the essence. The remnant soul of the Heavenly Gu Sect Master could make a move at any moment. We can't wait any longer."
Manager Zhang said with difficulty, "These are the regulations, and there's nothing I can do about it."
"However, considering the seriousness of the situation, I will contact headquarters immediately to try and obtain approval as soon as possible."
Just as the group was discussing their plan, the Heavenly Gu Sect Master's laughter suddenly came from the small bottle: "Jiang Mo, do you really think this little bottle can trap me? How naive!"
Everyone was shocked, for the runes on the small bottle began to flicker erratically, as if they might collapse at any moment.
"Not good!" Jiang Mo immediately grabbed the small bottle, formed hand seals, and poured golden runes into the bottle in an attempt to reinforce the seal.
"Hahaha!" The Heavenly Gu Sect Master's laughter grew even more rampant. "Jiang Mo, thank you for bringing me to this place."
"The extreme cold here can neutralize your Golden Gu power, giving me a chance to break free of the seal!"
Jiang Mo's expression changed, and he realized that the Heavenly Gu Sect Master had planned this all along and deliberately launched an attack at this moment.
"Manager Zhang, take us to the sealing room immediately!" Jiang Mo said urgently. "There's no time to wait for approval; otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Manager Zhang looked at the constantly flashing runes on the small bottle, then at Jiang Mo's solemn expression, and gritted his teeth.
"Okay, I'll take you there, but you need to sign a liability waiver; you'll be responsible for all consequences!"
“No problem!” Jiang Mo agreed without hesitation.
Supervisor Zhang quickly led the four people through a series of corridors to a huge metal door at the deepest part of the restricted area.
"This is the highest-level sealing chamber," Manager Zhang explained as he entered the complex password.
"Inside is the company's most powerful sealing formation, capable of completely isolating the transmission of all power."
The metal door slowly opened, revealing an empty room.
The ground and walls were covered with intricate runes, and in the center was a circular platform emitting a blue light.
"Place the small bottle on the platform, and the formation will automatically activate, completely sealing the power within," Manager Zhang said, pointing to the platform.
Jiang Mo nodded and carefully walked towards the platform, clutching the trembling bottle tightly in her hand.
However, his actions did not stabilize the small bottle.
