Chapter 1022 - Revisiting Familiar Grounds (1/2)

The entire Intentionless City was silent. As the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension’s largest city, it was eerily desolate.

“Could it be that we were too late?” Pei Fengwu’s expression changed slightly. Not long ago, the Huatian Palace’s Elder Ku Ji had come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Who would have thought that something like this would happen in such a short time since then?

Mo Wen was expressionless. Suddenly, a terrifying deified soul burst out as though it was plowing a field. In an instant, it covered the entire Intentionless City.

When such a terrifying deified soul swept over, it unsurprisingly alarmed everyone in Intentionless City. Some ordinary denizens trembled beneath the deified soul, as though they were facing a heavenly might.

“What is going on? Such a frightening deified soul.”

“How terrifying. Could it be that the elders of the sect have arrived?”

“Even Elder Shao’s deified soul is not as terrifying. Who exactly has come?”

…

The entire Intentionless City instantly burst into activity. A few silhouettes flew out from the inner city and looked up into the sky in horror.

Humph!

Mo Wen noticed at a glance that these people were not members of the Ming Palace. In fact, they flew out of the inner city. Obviously, Intentionless City had fallen into an enemy’s occupation.

A look of concern flashed past in his eyes. He was not concerned about the sect. For him, whether it existed did not matter; he had only established the Ming Palace to fulfill his promise from before. It was just that there were a few people in the sect that made him worry. Based on what Ku Ji said, by right, Gu Jingman should also be in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Could it be that, even with Gu Jingman’s ability, they could not hold back the stowaways from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm?

“Let us capture someone to figure out the situation.” Pei Fengwu looked at the city below as she raised her eyebrows. There were dozens of Infinite Powerhouses in this city. Even she was far from being a match for them. It was impossible for a mere Green Ancient Mystery Dimension to have so many Infinite Powerhouses. They must have belonged to the stowaways from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm.

Mo Wen extended his hand and pressed it downwards in the air. Immediately, a terrifying power swept over the entire city. Many ancient martial art practitioners continuously flew up into the sky.

There were more than a hundred of them. Also, their cultivations were not low.

Without a doubt, all of them were stowaways from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. When Mo Wen’s deified soul swept over the entire city, even an ant could not hide from him. It was naturally impossible for them to hide from Mo Wen’s detection. It was rather easy for these ordinary ancient martial art practitioners to come out from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. For cultivators above the Primordial Soul Realm, it was far more difficult.

“Who are you? What are all of you doing?”

“We are members of the Petrification Cult. Elder Shao Tianqi is in this mystery dimension. If you dare harm us, Elder Shao will not spare you.”

“Mo Wen! He is Mo Wen. I have seen his portrait before. Good heavens! Elder Shao has been searching for him everywhere and he appears in Intentionless City instead.”

…

After knowing that this youth was not a friend but a foe, the ancient martial art practitioners of the Petrification Cult panicked. After one of them shouted that the youth was Mo Wen, all of them were scared pale. They knew they were in deep trouble.

“I am asking you: what is the situation of the Ming Palace?” Mo Wen asked with a chill in his voice as he effortlessly grabbed one person to his side.

The person was a middle-aged man. He wore the sect uniform of the Petrification Cult. His expression was one of terror. His lips kept stuttering as he said, “I… I don’t know…”

“Is that so?” Mo Wen glanced indifferently at the person. The next moment, the body of the middle-aged man abruptly exploded, sending blood and flesh flying everywhere.

When the disciples of the Petrification Cult saw what had happened, all of them trembled and were horrified. Their eyes were full of despair.

“Why don’t you tell me?” Mo Wen said indifferently as he grabbed another person over.

“I don’t know. I truly don’t know… When we arrived, the Ming Palace had retreated. Don’t kill me…” The person kept shaking his head as he looked at Mo Wen in terror.

“Retreated?” Mo Wen narrowed his eyes slightly. The weight in his heart suddenly lightened. It seemed that the Ming Palace had not been eradicated.

“Elder Shao brought some people to investigate the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. He then sent back word that the members of the Ming Palace were most likely hiding in the Tan Zi Beast Lair.”

“The Tan Zi Beast Lair!”

Mo Wen suddenly recalled the Tan Zi Beast Lair. There were many secrets hidden in it. Those who went through the Fighting Spirit Tower incident knew about its secrets. Moreover, the Beast Lair was not only mysterious but also a natural protective barrier. Hiding in the Tan Zi Beast Lair was definitely much safer.

The Ming Palace had intelligent people among them. They knew how to seize the opportunity and did not remain locked up in Intentionless City.

After asking a few more questions, Mo Wen waved his hand. A cold wind blew past. The hundred over Petrification Cult members became ice sculptures and fell into the city.

Shao Tianqi! That old thing actually managed to make his way out here without anyone noticing. The Huatian Palace surprisingly did not get any wind of this. As expected, he was not easy to deal with.
