Chapter 142: The Storage Ring And The Copper Key

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: - -

This question alarmed everyone; Mo Wuji also heard it. Mo Wuji was secretly anxious; if someone takes out an illumination stone and throws it down, they would clearly see that this place was only 100 meters deep. Furthermore, there were even some places in midair which could be stepped on, there was clearly no danger in coming down.

Mo Wuji treaded on those lantern like objects and soon reached the ground. The ground was very hard and was built using some unknown material. Even as Mo Wuji landed heavily on it, there were no sounds.

Airflow within the palace wasn't very smooth, and it was rather suffocating. In the shortest time possible, Mo Wuji scanned through the surroundings; there were more than 20 passages which led to some unknown destination. In the center of the hall, there was a stone cauldron. At the side of the stone cauldron hung a corpse. With his spiritual will, Mo Wuji could see that the corpse was grasping a copper key in its hand. The key was around 30 centimeters long.

Mo Wuji immediately rushed over and threw the key into his storage bag. Perhaps his speed was too fast, as the corpse's robes were ruffled by his wind.

Mo Wuji used his fastest possible speed to leave the corpse. At this moment, multiple illumination stones dropped in, illuminating the surroundings as though it was daytime.

”Friends, it's very safe down here. You all can come on down,” Mo Wuji lifted his head and shouted.

In actuality, after the illumination stones were activated, there was no need for Mo Wuji to call out. Everyone could see that it was extremely safe.

40 shadows descended down, and soon, everyone was standing in this moldy, stuffy hall.

No one bothered to care about Mo Wuji as they scanned the hall with eyes like an eagle's, searching around for clues.

The corpse by the stone cauldron was the first to be discovered; the bearded man had the highest cultivation, so he was the fastest to arrive by the corpse's side.

At this moment, the people discovered that there were also approximately 20 passages, and some simple drawings on the wall. The location which was most likely to have treasures would be the corpse on the stone cauldron. So as the bearded man landed by the corpse's side, everyone rushed to surround him.

As everyone came over, they brought over some mild wind. With a 'huala’, the corpse fell onto the ground and crumbled. Even its bones disintegrated to ashes.

”Ding”, a seemingly imperceptible sound was particularly obvious in this silent hall. This light drew the attention attracted the gaze of everyone there. A mottled ring landed and rolled on the ground.

This ring coincidentally rolled to the side of a yellow robed cultivator and he immediately rushed to grab it.

Storage ring?

Everyone's eyes concentrated on this yellow robed cultivator. Everyone was clear on the immense value of a storage ring.

Let's not talk about storage rings, even storage bags were items not anyone could obtain. There were more than 40 people present, and not more than half of them possessed a storage bag. One must know that anyone who could enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain was definitely a sect's genius disciple. Even so, not everyone here had their own storage bags. Since that's the case, a storage ring which was much handier to carry, much more storage space and had much tighter defenses was far more valuable.

”Hand the ring over,” The bearded man glared at the yellow robed cultivator and spoke in an unkind manner.

The yellow robed cultivator was frightened. However, he was truly unwilling to give up this storage ring which belonged to him. In his eyes, this was his luck ah.

”Why? I'm the one who obtained it. You can't just unreasonably take…” The yellow robed cultivator gritted his teeth and spoke in a slightly quivering tone.

Perhaps he knew deep down that he was definitely unable to keep the storage ring. Now, he simply wanted to ask for some benefits.

Mo Wuji shook his head in his mind. If it was him, he would not hesitate to throw the storage ring away. Even if he wanted some benefits, he wouldn't speak in such a manner. Instead, he would be direct and say: I don't want this ring. Exchange it with something else.

The bearded man laughed menacingly, and the fine-scale awl in his hand began to be wrapped in countless phosphorescence. Elemental energy surged wildly, and even Mo Wuji who was the furthest away felt suffocated. A pressure of death came bounding down, making it difficult to breathe. The cultivators all parted ways and avoided the bearded man. The yellow robed cultivator never expected that the bearded man wouldn't even negotiate and act immediately. At this moment, he couldn't even dodge.

”Pssh!” Blood sprayed in all directions. The yellow robed cultivator was killed with a single stab of the awl.

The bearded man walked over and picked up the storage ring and wore it on his own hand, his eyes darting around the crowd.

No one dared to speak; he was the only Yuan Dan Stage cultivator here. The yellow robed cultivator was roughly in the initial levels of the Transcending Mortality Stage, he had no means of resistance against the bearded man. The crowd which originally surrounded the bearded man subconsciously moved to the side. After seeing firsthand the bearded man's prowess, no one dared to look for their own deaths.
