Chapter 230: Way To Go, Battleship!

Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations

The courage of the Hundred Sect Alliance cultivators was only temporary. After seeing 10,000 alien cultivators leaving the battlefield to reap all lives on the Lost Continent, the Hundred Sect Alliance cultivators lost their spirit and strength to fight on.

At this moment, tens of thousands of alien cultivators also stopped in their attacks as they stared at their comrades mercilessly slaughtering the defeated Hundred Sect Alliance cultivators. At the same time, they prevented anyone from escaping. One could see that they were clearly aiming for complete annihilation in this war.

Whether it was the Lost Continent cultivators or the alien cultivators, they all knew: this war was already over. The Lost Continent would soon disappear, and this place would be new continent. Everyone who would live on this new continent who be from the Floating Star.

Right at this moment, a flying ship came charging in. At the bow of the ship, there were ten people. A man with black hair and a white beard suddenly jumped out from the flying ship, pouncing towards the alien cultivators.

Multiple True God experts from the alien front came forward to accept the challenge.

”Boom boom boom!” Crazy bursts of elemental energy exploded in midair. A few figures descended from midair, never to breath again.

The sudden unforeseen event left everyone gasping. Even the huge war down in the battlefield instantly went still. One person went against multiple True God experts, and in a simple face-off, a few of the True God experts were immediately killed. Was this a dream? Since when did the Lost Continent have such an expert?

…

On a mountain slightly far away from the Yin Tomb Beach, Mo Wuji was staring at the direction of the blood-shrouded battlefield.

”Head senior brother, should I go take a look?” Pu Qian took the initiative to ask, seeing the looks of worry on Mo Wuji’s face.

Mo Wuji nodded, ”That sounds good. Take this flying ship and go over. If you encounter any situation, immediately come back.”

”Yes.” Pu Qian immediately controlled the flying ship and headed towards the Yin Tomb Beach.

”Yiping, why don’t you tell me more about the Tian Ji Sect lands?” Mo Wuji said as he fiddled with a laser cannon ammunition.

Sang Yiping responded with an ”En” before explaining, ”The Tian Ji Sect is actually on the periphery of the Ming Han Empire. It’s position actually coincides to form a triangle with the Great Evolution Sect and the Heaven Seeking Palace. Of course, this is only the opinion of our Tian Ji Sect. Many don’t even know the existence of the Tian Ji Sect.”

”Wasn’t the Ming Han Empire the first to be destroyed by the alien cultivators? I heard that the Ming Han Empire’s capital, Da Ke City, has also been occupied.” Mo Wuji asked.

Sang Yiping responded, ”Da Ke City has indeed been occupied by the alien cultivators but the Ming Han Empire is still there. Our Tian Ji Sect is also at the periphery of the Ming Han Empire, so it hasn’t been noticed. Our Tian Ji Sect occupies hundreds of square miles of land, with one main mountain and more than a hundred secondary summits, all these secondary summits were formed naturally. A river passes through the center, and we call it the Tian Ji River. One could say that the Tian Ji Sect is a natural sect. Even the Great Evolution Sect created many of their secondary summits.”

”With such a good spot, why didn’t the bigger sects come snatch it up?” Mo Wuji asked quizzically.

”Because Tian Ji Sect’s environment and position might be good, but it’s barren spiritual land. Here, spiritual energy is sparse and even with an energy gathering array, it is still impossible to gather dense spiritual energy,” Sang Yiping replied.

Mo Wuji immediately came to a realisation. The purpose of a sect and its legacy was naturally to gather more power, and it was not merely a place for residence. If a sect didn’t have a place suitable for cultivation, it naturally wouldn’t be able to grow stronger. This was like the Lotus Sword Summit back in the Formless Blade Sect. The spiritual energy around the Tian Ji Sect was sparse, so it was perfectly normal for other sects to not eye its location.

”When we return, I will find some ways to install a huge formation to protect the Tian Ji River and all the mountain peaks. At the same time, I will rebuild the Tian Ji Summit.” Mo Wuji immediately said. Spiritual energy was not a problem. After all, he was adroit in arrays, and he even had an impressive spiritual vein on him.

Sang Yiping shook her head, ”Head senior brother, I’m afraid that’s not possible.”

”Why?” Mo Wuji stared curiously at Sang Yiping. Was the land extremely peculiar, such that a sect protecting array couldn’t be established?

Sang Yiping lowered her head and said, ”Because more than a half of the hundred plus secondary summits have been rented out. Now, we only have the main summit and ten over secondary summits.”

Mo Wuji was stunned. A sect rented out its mountain summits to others? This was the first time he heard of such a thing.

”The Tian Ji Sect is so short of spirit stones?” Mo Wuji asked with his brows furrowed. Even if a sect was lacking in spirit stones, it should not rent its land over to others, right?

Sang Yiping sighed, ”The people who rented the tens of Tian Ji Sect’s secondary summits are two major powers. One is the Ming Han Empire’s 14th prince. He controls the Ming Han - Tian Shang Alliance, and this alliance was established on our Tian Ji Sect’s land. This land was mainly used to generate fortunes for him, and at the same time, it houses some of our most desperate disciples. The second power is a mountain fortress. This mountain fortress belongs to the Ming Han Empire’s 26th Prince, and it specialises in doing some shady businesses. As for the rent, our Tian Ji Sect has yet to even see a single copper coin.”

Mo Wuji instantly lamented in his heart; this lamentation was for the Tian Ji Sect. Tian Ji Sect was, after all, a sect of cultivators. To think that it was caught in the throats by some mortal princes, such that they had to rent their land to them. This was the greatest form of humiliation.

”The Ming Han Empire has many Earth Realm experts, which our Tian Ji Sect is only a Xuan sect. We’re unable to fight against them.” Sang Yiping’s voice started to gradually turn softer, clearly, she also felt aggrieved and wronged.
