960 Purging Evil and Defending Righteousness (2/2)
One hundred and fifty thousand spiritual stones! In the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, it was enough to purchase an ordinary medium-grade profound level weapon. However, the Thirty-two Stratagems Manuscript was an Inheritance Pearl record, so this price was reasonable. Usually, as long as it was an Inheritance Pearl, it would not be cheap.
This was also why people usually only bought manuscripts and jade inscriptions to learn from. However, one often could not learn the essence from these forms of learning, and therefore it was hard to achieve anything from them.
Right now, Mo Wen had many spiritual stones. In Dragon City, he had earned more than 3,000,000 spiritual stones. He had a small fortune in his hands.
”Sir, I have a few more treasures here. Please have another look.”
Mo Wen decisively paid the amount. He did not even blink at the hundreds of thousands of spiritual stones. Yu Lan immediately smiled even more radiantly. As expected, Mo Wen was loaded. Right now, she longed for the crimson crystal card that Mo Wen had. That was a symbol of the nouveau rich.
Among the cards that the Huatian Palace distributed, there was the blue crystal card and the crimson crystal card. There was also the purple crystal card above them and the highest level gold crystal card.
Those with less than a million spiritual stones were given the blue crystal card. The crimson crystal card was used by those with more than a million spiritual stones. As for the more premium purple crystal card, only those with more than 50,000,000 spiritual stones could use them.
Usually, ordinary Primordial Soul Realm cultivators owned blue crystal cards. Few could hold the crimson crystal card.
Unfortunately, Mo Wen's interest wasn't sparked by any of the contents in the remaining jade boxes.
...
After Mo Wen left the Imperial Treasury, he was about to return to his inn when the entire sky suddenly darkened, and a terrifying deified soul swept across the area like a plow. The deified soul loomed over the whole of Li'an City.
”Hmm?” Mo Wen raised his eyebrows. He noticed that the thick and rich deified soul was locked on him. Clearly, someone was targeting him.
”You are Mo Wen, right?”
Three silhouettes appeared before Mo Wen. They traveled through the air. A moment ago, they were still far away; the next moment, they had already appeared in front of Mo Wen.
The three people consisted of a middle-aged man and two elders. All three of them emanated terrifying pressure, and they were Primordial Soul Realm cultivators.
The aura emanated by the middle-aged man who led the team was especially mysterious. Most likely, the terrifying deified soul belonged to this middle-aged man as well.
After Mo Wen had cultivated his Primordial Soul, his deified soul was much stronger than that of ordinary beginning-stage Primordial Soul Realm cultivators. It was because he had practiced the Divine Soul Trillion Layers. Not only was the Divine Soul Trillion Layers a great remarkable power from the Ancient Age, but it also helped to cultivate one's soul specifically.
It is said that when one practiced the Divine Soul Trillion Layers until the highest realm, the person's Primordial Soul would be as powerful as or even stronger than their body. When one reached that state, they could desert their mortal flesh and continue living in the state of the Primordial Soul. Besides, the person would be hard to kill off. They were close to being immortal and indestructible.
During the Ancient Age, someone had utilized the Divine Soul Trillion Layers to cultivate their Primordial Soul until an unimaginable state. With the power of the Primordial Soul alone, the person could defeat ordinary Virtue and Justice Realm cultivators. Even the Heavenly Path's ultimate influential practitioners found it hard to kill this person. This person was very famous back then.
However, right now, Mo Wen's cultivation was still shallow. The Divine Soul Trillion Layers had six realms in total. He hadn't even mastered the first realm.
”Who are you?” Mo Wen stared at the three people indifferently. They seemed hostile.
”I am Xue Chu, the Blood Evil Temple Temple Leader.” Xue Chu stood in midair, looking down on Mo Wen with an indifferent gaze. It was as though Mo Wen was but an insignificant ant in the eyes of Xue Chu. He didn't even bother looking at Mo Wen properly.
”The Blood Evil Temple! Oh, I see.”
Mo Wen lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Then, he recalled. Wasn't the sect behind Lord Merciless the Blood Evil Temple? Mo Wen had not thought that he would meet them so quickly.
”Are you guys picking on me now? I do not have a vendetta with your Blood Evil Temple. You didn't have to mobilize such a large army against me,” Mo Wen said plainly. His grudges with the Lord Merciless were personal. Mo Wen had not thought of using it as an excuse to attack the Blood Evil Temple. However, judging from the looks of it now, the Blood Evil Temple was targeting him. Even the temple leader had come to meet him personally.
”Naturally, you do not have any vendetta with our Blood Evil Temple. However, you are from the heretic path. Our Blood Evil Temple protects the Huatian Palace, and we are loyal. We are here to purge evil and defend righteousness,” one of the elders standing beside Xue Chu said with a cold smile. As for Xue Chu, he stood proudly while hugging his arms, not saying a word.
”Purging evil and defending righteousness? What a good excuse!” Mo Wen laughed. Mo Wen's life motto had always been to not mess with others unless they messed with him. From the looks of it now, these people were messing with him.
Three Primordial Soul Realm mighty cultivators from the Blood Evil Temple came to Li'an City publicly without any disguise. Their arrival had alarmed everyone in the city. Zhang Huishan, who initially stayed put in the city to see if any changes occurred, flew out to meet them immediately. Li'an City was under the control of Xiping Country. Since the three Primordial Soul Realm mighty cultivators were here, naturally, Zhang Huishan had to welcome them personally.
