Whenever Mo Qi was attacked, his Dark Horse-level Token automatically emitted a special Energy to protect him.
If the attack came from a physical object, it would be repelled.
Therefore, to allow the Pig Emperor to pinpoint the Dragon Vein's location, he needed Qian Duoduo and the others to stand at a distance and hit him with ranged attacks condensed from their True Essence.
This was also why Mo Qi didn't have his External Incarnation attack him.
Although the External Incarnation possessed the combat power of the Peak of Purity Realm, it was merely an incarnation. It lacked a Dantian and Meridians, so the concept of True Essence didn't apply to it.
Strictly speaking, the External Incarnation was simply a powerful weapon.
It would take the Pig Emperor a quarter of an hour to pinpoint the Dragon Vein's exact location.
During this time, Mo Qi learned something from Qian Duoduo and the others.
