1155 Barging into the Sacred Mountain (2/2)
”Mo Fan...” Pang Lai had the urge to say something.
Mo Fan turned to him, waiting for him to speak.
”If you fail, you might lose all your cultivation. The Holy Judgment Court has made its decision. Not many people in this world can change the outcome. Even the Holy Saint Wen Tai did not escape their judgment. Not long ago, Essendale, the strongest Shadow Mage in the world, failed too. You have just made a name in the World College Tournament, and you have received the Blessing of the God's Seal. We all believe that you will surpass us in the future. There's no limit to what you can achieve. I hope you understand that no matter what you do, you won't be able to change the outcome. We sincerely wish that you can think about it calmly, so you won't ruin your own life… at least, during the execution, I'll ask the Chairman to request that you can see her one last time,” Pang Lai finally uttered the words he wanted to say all this time.
Tang Zhong did not say anything, because he was extremely familiar with Mo Fan's character. Tang Zhong knew Xinxia's fate had been sealed. He also had the urge to stop Mo Fan, and regardless of how reluctant Mo Fan was to accept it, it was still the truth that Xinxia was Salan. He did not want Mo Fan to sacrifice himself for nothing.
However, Tang Zhong was unable to say anything when he saw Mo Fan's reaction.
Han Ji and Zhu Meng shared the same thoughts. If Mo Fan had not achieved his current heights by himself, they would surely have stopped him from trying anything ridiculous. Trying to barge in the Mountain of the Goddess was the same as challenging the decision and authority of the Parthenon Temple and the Holy Judgment Court. Even a Forbidden Mage was unwilling to oppose two formidable factions that were stronger than the Magic Associations!
Mo Fan looked at Pang Lai, and the others that had come to protect him.
Mo Fan never thought such an accusation would befall Xinxia. He was thinking of bringing Xinxia back to their country not too long ago, and the two could live a comfortable, carefree life. Unfortunately, this bad news had come out of nowhere. It felt like he was having a ridiculous nightmare.
Mo Fan had always thought dealing with the Black Vatican was an extremely difficult task. He had no idea who they were, yet the Black Vatican was thinking of killing him at all times. They were hiding in the dark, and every calamity they stirred made him feel like he was extremely weak and tiny.
But in Mo Fan's eyes, the accusation that had befallen Xinxia was ten times scarier than going against the Black Vatican!
Against the Black Vatican, Mo Fan knew all he had to do was to work harder and become stronger. As for the situation that Xinxia was in, Mo Fan suddenly felt like he had fallen into a deep abyss, where he could never see the light again!
However, he was well aware of one thing: he wanted to see her, no matter the odds. He had to stay by her side. If such news was devastating to him, what would it do to Xinxia?
When she was young, she was so weak that she kept struggling to stand like a normal person. She would shed tears when she was alone. How could a girl like her face the accusations on her own!?
”If I can't protect her, what's the point of becoming stronger, or earning more glory?” Mo Fan replied.
”But have you ever thought...” Pang Lai wanted to say something.
Old Bao shook his head at Pang Lai. Pang Lai did not continue.
Mo Fan placed his foot on the Starry Mountain Path. Only those with permission were allowed to enter it.
Two months ago, Mo Fan was given permission, but today, he was an unwanted guest!
”Friend, this is the Starry Mountain Path. If you step through the entrance without permission, you are going to die a cruel death. You should reconsider your action,” a Holy Court Mage standing at the entrance said sternly.
”I've made up my mind,” Mo Fan responded.
Pang Lai was more familiar with the dangers of the Starry Mountain Path than anyone else. His face turned pale when he saw Mo Fan entering it.
Pang Lai decided to give up on his attempt after assessing the situation, but Mo Fan was even more determined than he was. He was not going to give up until he met Xinxia in person. He was going to lose his cultivation!
”An intruder has entered the Starry Mountain Path!”
”An intruder has entered the Starry Mountain Path!”
”An intruder has entered the Starry Mountain Path!”
The loud voice echoed across the sacred mountain. An ancient bell started ringing. It had not rung in many years, and sounded extremely heavy!
A dark, blue light of the Chaos Element appeared on the Starry Mountain Path. The extraordinary energy was swaying regardless of which direction the people were looking at the sacred mountain.
As Pang Lai said, once the intruder stepped through the arc-shaped entrance, the magic formation would activate at once, shrouding the long mountain path. Even the sky above it was tightly sealed. Mo Fan felt like he was in a void tunnel, as he could not see anything around him. He only saw four statues with murderous auras barring the way on the stairs.
Mo Fan could feel his strength being suppressed, but the suppression was not too strong. He was still able to use his full power.
However, Pang Lai had clearly mentioned that it was impossible to overcome the challenge of the Starry Mountain Path without the strength of the Super Level.
The news of someone barging in immediately shook the entire sacred mountain. Even the believers of the Hall of Faith heard it. The news continued to spread throughout the Citadel of Athens...
It was an ancient taboo. It attracted everyone's attention when a courageous man attempted to break it!
