The Spirit still retains a bit of surplus, so maybe grinding for a little while longer, or maneuvering the Nine-tailed's Demonic Power is something that can be done.
However, despite Gu Mo's reluctance, he decisively stopped at this point. Even though the masked Demons did not appear again and only tested once for some unknown reason before, who could guarantee that they or the person behind them are not secretly spying, waiting for an opportunity?
He could not easily take risks, nor could he reveal his greatest weakness—the transformation has a time limit. Once the time runs out, the weaknesses of a mortal are exposed again.
Perhaps the Gods and Demons of this world are very... emmm, very disgraceful, but Gu Mo did not relax his vigilance or become arrogant because of it.
