662 Killing the Beast King (2/2)
A seventh-grade talisman had the power equivalent to a martial arts grandmaster putting his all into an attack. The highest-grade talisman was the ninth-grade talisman and it was said that it could kill a martial arts grandmaster.
Even immortal cultivators who did not have high cultivation levels could use the low-grade talismans. For example, the simplest first grade Heart Cleansing Talisman and the second-grade Evil Avoidance Talisman, which would mean that a warrior could avoid evil attacks when pestering a person, were both elementary runes that had been studied by immortal cultivators.
The item Mo Wen now held was a spiritual talisman. It was possible to say that spiritual talismans were the highest grade of talisman there was. It was extremely powerful and showed how powerful an immortal cultivator was. Immortal cultivators who could cultivate spiritual talismans were all above the Primordial Soul Realm. The power of a spiritual talisman could threaten an immortal cultivator in the Primordial Soul Realm.
Mo Wen had several ancient spiritual talismans in his hand. Even though they had been ravaged by time and had lost a lot of their power, they were still extraordinarily powerful. If they were complete spiritual talismans, a spiritual talisman could probably kill all the seventh rank mythical beasts in the Fire Domain.
Mo Wen was a little surprised that killing illusionary beasts would result in gaining talismans.
He cast his gaze over his surroundings and then stuffed the white jade treasure box into his shirt. He did not open the treasure box immediately because the task was to take the Beast King's treasure box out of the ancient city. He had not completed his task yet.
The blue protective light shield around the altar flickered and Mo Wen slowly emerged.
Pei Fengwu and the other two were still fighting with the three Lord Monstrous Beasts. Power swept through the square. A large number of monstrous beasts were gathered around outside the square. However, none of them dared to enter it because ordinary monstrous beasts could not even bear the ripping of the attacks from the three mythical beasts. They would not be able to help if they entered the square, and could even be killed.
Mo Wen had only been inside the altar for a short while. It had definitely been less than three minutes. However, Pei Fengwu and the other two had encountered numerous defeats and had almost died. They could only dodge and could not even return the attack.
After all the Lord Monstrous Beasts were too powerful. It was already a remarkable feat for them to be able to simply hold their own against them.
They would all be defeated in one or two minutes. If they did not leave, they would die here.
”Mo Wen…!” Pei Fengwu subconsciously turned around and discovered a figure approaching from the light. Who was it if not Mo Wen?
His expression and his mental state were both calm. It was as if he was simply walking out of his house and he looked supremely unconcerned. He did not seem as if he was injured at all. Could he have succeeded? Pei Fengwu was shocked at the thought.
Of course, other than successfully stealing the Beast King's treasure box, there was another possibility— Mo Wen had completely failed and had been forced to helplessly retreat.
However, either way, Mo Wen had emerged from there safely. Pei Fengwu gave a sigh of relief.
There would be other opportunities if they did not complete this task. It would be a pity if they died here.
Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan glanced at Mo Wen at the same time. Their pupils narrowed and a look of incredulity flashed through their eyes.
Mo Wen had emerged from the altar unscathed. How was that possible!
The two had not expected that Mo Wen would walk out from the altar like this. They had already been imagining how Mo Wen would die in there. After all, the two of them had been inside the altar and knew of the terrifying existence within it.
With Mo Wen's capabilities, he should not have been able to defend himself against that ferocious creature. Why had nothing happened to him?
The two of them were distracted and their reaction time slowed. As they faced yet another attack from the monstrous beasts, they were injured. It was fortunate that they both had healing lights. If they did not have any healing lights or recovery lights, no matter how powerful the three of them were, they would not be able to hold on for so long against the three mythical beasts.
Pei Fengwu dodged an attack from the Cyan Light Eagle and looked questioningly at Mo Wen.
Mo Wen glanced at the other three and then nodded at Pei Fengwu. ”The task is complete. Let's go.” He moved quickly, charging towards the edge of the city.
”You've gotten the Beast King's treasure box?” Pei Fengwu was shocked. There was a hint of glee in her eyes. She had not expected that Mo Wen would actually obtain the Beast King's treasure box. Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan's experience earlier had made her think that getting the Beast King's treasure box was impossible. However, Mo Wen had done it.
Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan's expression changed slightly. Their eyes glinted and they turned to look at Mo Wen.
They had not expected that Mo Wen would really do it. How had he done it?
The two were already very shocked that Mo Wen had emerged from the altar unscathed. However, they could not understand the situation now.
Mo Wen's cultivation level was only at the level of the late Golden Elixir realm How had he defeated the terrifying existence inside?
Mo Wen ignored their expressions and ran out of the ancient city Their task had not ended yet. In order to avoid more trouble, leaving the ancient city as soon as possible was the best choice.
Pei Fengwu looked delighted. She abandoned her battle with the Cyan Light Eagle and turned to run.
The Cyan Light Eagle did not give chase. Instead, it ignored Pei Fengwu and the other two behind and instead frantically chased after Mo Wen. It wanted the white jade treasure box.
Hou Jingfeng and Gong Zhangyan's eyes glittered. They stared at the white jade treasure box in Mo Wen's arms. They set off to follow Mo Wen after the three mythical beasts had gone a substantial distance in their pursuit after him.
