653 The Realm of Forming the Elixir (2/2)

As for the medium grade Unsealing Light, it could be used to unseal a top grade spiritual weapon. For Mo Wen, this was undoubtedly great news.

The difference between a top grade spiritual weapon and a low-grade spiritual weapon was huge. Their powers could not be compared: they were worlds apart.

By unsealing a top grade spiritual weapon, Mo Wen's combat ability would certainly be significantly enhanced.

In the end, Mo Wen chose to unseal the top grade spiritual weapon, the Gray Mountain Peak. This was a spiritual weapon that Mo Wen had obtained in the underground palace. Out of all of the ones which he possessed, it was the highest quality top grade spiritual weapon. Even the Green Primordial Mirror was slightly weaker. The Gray Mountain Peak weapon could be used for both offense and defense, and it could be used in many different ways. It was a very practical spiritual weapon.

Suddenly, a mysterious voice sounded in Mo Wen's mind. Then, another wave of information surged into his brain. ”Congratulations! You have triggered the hidden task. If you complete the task within the specified time, you will obtain a reward from the Tower Spirit.”

Mo Wen was shocked. A hidden task? He immediately focused his mind, browsing again through the information that the Tower Spirit had passed to him.

He had actually triggered a hidden task by killing the Saber-Toothed Tiger Demon. This hidden task was a game task assigned by the Tower Spirit. Once the task was completed, one would obtain the corresponding reward.

As for what was the reward, Mo Wen did not know. But the difficulty of the task made him draw a cold breath.

Thirty kilometers from the forest, there was a deserted city moat. It had already been conquered and was in the hands of a large number of illusionary beasts. The leader of the illusionary beasts was a Beast King comparable to a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

However, earlier on, the Beast King had gone out and had returned injured. Right now, it had already entered a deep slumber.

Mo Wen's task was to make his way through the deserted city moat and steal the treasure that the Beast King had hidden underneath the ancient city.

Rather than secretly stealing, it was more like directly robbing. In the deserted ancient city, there were illusionary beasts everywhere. It would be impossible for the thieves to not be discovered.

If it were normal illusionary beasts that he would be facing, with Mo Wen's current cultivation, he was not afraid of anything.

But in that deserted ancient city, there were the Four Lords. The Four Lords each had the pinnacle of the seventh rank cultivation. Also, their combat power was above that of the human pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. Although some pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners could defeat pinnacle of the seventh rank monstrous beasts, they mostly depended on the power of the immortal cultivator magical treasures. Ancient martial art practitioners that could defeat a pinnacle of the seventh rank monstrous beast, aside from Martial Arts Grandmasters, were definitely rare.

Also, the injured Beast King was only in deep slumber. No one knew whether it would suddenly wake up. If it woke up suddenly when they were carrying out the task, the consequences would be destructive for them.

”This hidden task is not easy to complete. Even if I encounter the four pinnacle of the seventh rank monstrous beasts, I will most likely have to run from them.”

Mo Wen had a slight headache. This mission was rather difficult. Even his life was at risk.

He had dared to venture into the Fire Domain because he had the treasures with him to assist him. Those treasures were his trump cards. Once he encountered dangers, under circumstances when he had to go all out, he had the ability to kill even a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

However, everything was different in this place. The rules here greatly limited Mo Wen's power.

For example, it would be almost impossible for him to use the Black Gold Puppet. There were no top quality Unsealing Lights that could unseal his Black Gold Puppet. Another example would be those ancient spiritual talismans. They could not be used here either.

The Unsealing Light in this space could only unseal things like magical treasures and stratagem boards. All the treasures that had energy stored and could directly attack others on their own with terrifying power could not be used.

That was because the Tower Spirit had to control the balance of this world in order for the game to be able to meaningfully continue.

All the ancient martial art practitioners who came to the Fire Domain had extraordinary backgrounds. Most likely everyone had a few trump cards up their sleeve. Those trump cards would not be revealed normally; however, when the practitioners were faced with life or death situations, their trump cards would surely unleash terrifying power.

Mo Wen didn't know what heritage those ancient martial art practitioner sects had. However, he believed that if a sect really unveiled all its heritage, the Seven Major Beast Kings in the Fire Domain would most likely not be able to withstand the force, even if the combat ability of the Beast Kings doubled.

Therefore, under the circumstances where Mo Wen couldn't use the ancient spiritual talismans, runes, and the Black Gold Puppet, he was very worried about his safety. Even though Mo Wen had broken through to the Golden Elixir realm and had cultivation akin to that of the later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners, he would surely die if he encountered terrifying mythical beasts like the Giant Crocodile Beast King once more.

However, Mo Wen received another piece of information of great significance. This task had not been triggered by him alone. Another three human ancient martial art practitioners had triggered the task at the same time as him.

It meant that there were a total of four ancient martial art practitioners who had received this task. Mo Wen still had a few partners that could cooperate with him in completing the task. In that sense, the power of each side was much more balanced than he had first feared it to be.
