509 Hunting Golden Elixir Realm Practitioners (1/2)
Upon hearing this, Mo Wen nodded his head. Although his soul attack technique could affect intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners, the effects were not big. Before, when he had attacked Xu Zhong's soul, it was somewhat taxing. If it was an intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner, it would most likely be even more difficult.
Also, with his current ability, to be able to send out a soul attack and harm an intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner was already considered very good. To attack two people at the same time was an impossible feat.
”Mo Wen, I have a favor to ask,” Chen Zikuang asked with a serious expression.
”Oh, what is it?” Mo Wen smiled. In reality, he did not need to ask to know what the matter was. However, in this setting, how could he not ask? Of course, he had to pretend not to know.
”I hope you can cooperate with the Intentionless Sect elders and head forth to kill the Sacred Flame Sect's Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners.” Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly. With Mo Wen acting like this, he already realized that there would inevitably be a huge price to pay. Many times, Chen Zikuang had experienced firsthand this brat's ability to take advantage of every opportunity to benefit himself. However, given the situation right now, he had to ask Mo Wen for help once again, although he really did not want to have dealings with this brat.
The pressure that the Intentionless Sect currently faced was not only the Sacred Flame Sect's two intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm sect leaders but also their number of Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners which far outnumbered that of the Intentionless Sect. The Intentionless Sect was very much lacking in top tier battle power.
If Mo Wen could cooperate with the Intentionless Sect elders and kill more Sacred Flame Sect elders, then for the Intentionless Sect, it would a timely help. It could lessen the pressure of battle greatly.
”For every Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner you kill, you will receive a reward of ten spiritual stones.” Chen Zikuang had already prepared to break the bank. So, before Mo Wen opened his mouth, he first said this. If he let Mo Wen speak first, whether or not ten spiritual stones would even be enough would be a problem.
”I'm just contributing some muscle. The Intentionless Sect will be standing in my camp in the future. How can I accept such a reward in good conscience? However, since Deputy Sect Leader Chen is being so enthusiastic, it would not be nice for me to reject such an offer. It is difficult to refuse such kindness!” Mo Wen said, laughing.
He was very satisfied at the price of ten spiritual stones offered by Chen Zikuang. It was just killing a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. After all, he was not the one who would be putting his life on the line fighting to the death, so it was very cost-effective.
Chen Zikuang rolled his eyes. Cannot accept such a reward in good conscience! For Mo Wen to say this was practically like pigs flying.
Only a ghost would believe what Mo Wen said. Chen Zikuang had already experienced firsthand Mo Wen's shamelessness, so he naturally would not take what Mo Wen said to heart.
After all, Chen Zikuang had thought it through. In the future, if Mo Wen re-established the Ming Cult, the Intentionless Sect would most likely end up in his hands. Right now, he would just take it as though he was providing some benefits to Mo Wen beforehand.
Following this, Chen Zikuang called an elder. This elder was dressed in grey and was clearly showing signs of age. This person was the Intentionless Sect's sect great elder. Based on seniority, he was still above Chen Zikuang. He was a figure of Chen Wuhui's generation. His cultivation was naturally placed first among the elders. He was one of the strongest battle powers of the Intentionless Sect.
Chen Zikuang hoped that Mo Wen would cooperate with the elder to head forth and kill the Sacred Flame Sect beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. With Mo Wen's soul attack, as well as the sect great elder's battle power, it should not be a difficult task.
”Elder Xia, this mission is top secret. Only the three of us know. Please act cautiously,” Chen Zikuang said with a serious expression.
They could not let the members of the Sacred Flame Sect know about Mo Wen's ability, otherwise, his effectiveness would be decreased by half.
”Deputy Sect Leader, don't worry. I understand. I will surely cooperate well with our little friend Mo Wen,” Xia Kunqian said as he nodded his head ceremoniously. He was clearly a person who did not smile a lot.
Mo Wen glanced curiously at the elder beside him, but he did not say anything. Since this old man was the Intentionless Sect's sect great elder, then he should be much more powerful than that Mu Liao. With his cooperation, maybe the task would be much easier.
…
In the Intentionless Sect's outer city, in a house under the cover of night, an elder wearing a fiery red robe and a black cape stood in a large hall. On each side of the hall stood more than ten men in red robes. Their chests were adorned with the sigil of the sun. There were all Sacred Flame Sect ancient martial art practitioners, and their ranks were not low.
”There is still no news from Elder Duan Mu and Elder Diao Peng?” The old man who was the leader had a sullen expression. He glanced at the man in black robes kneeling on one knee before him.
”Reporting to the sect leader, our spies have ventured within the Snow Storm Stratagem a total of four times to search. We have not found any signs of the two elders' whereabouts,” the man in black said with a respectful look as he lowered his head slightly.
”We don't even know if they are alive or dead. Could it be that these two fellows have actually fled?” Zhu Lanhuo's eyes flashed with a cold look. Yesterday, he had sent the two elders to venture into the Snow Storm Stratagem to kill an Intentionless Sect Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. But he never imagined that not only would their scheme fail, but that both of the elders who went on the mission instead went missing. Even the whereabouts of the sect's spiritual weapon that they had taken along with them was currently unknown.
The members of the Sacred Flame Sect searched for an entire day and night, and yet they did not manage to find the two of them.
Right now, there were only two scenarios. One was that they had already died, and their corpses had been destroyed by the members of the Intentionless Sect to eliminate the evidence. The other was that the two of them coveted the sect's spiritual weapon, and had fled with it.
