”Senior Mo,” A few cultivators got off the flying treasures recognised Mo Wuji immediately as they hurried to greet him.
Mo Wuji was a unique character in the Corner of Yong Ying and in fact, he was a person wanted but could never be captured by the Ying Bian City. Even if the Immortal World rebuilt the transfer array to the Corner of Yong Ying, the Immortal World didn’t attempt to capture Mo Wuji. Who would dare to not show their respect for a person like him?
Mo Wuji nodded to acknowledge the greetings and inquired, ”Does anyone knows about the origins of this Lifeless River?”
A white haired Heavenly Immortal Stage cultivator said, ”I’ve heard that this Lifeless River was originally a river of the Lifeless Dao Sect with the sect protecting spiritual beasts living within the river itself. Later on, the Lifeless Dao Sect obtained a treasure which started the fight among the 10 biggest domains. I’ve heard that after the huge fight, the Lifeless Dao Sect ended up being completed fragmented and only the Lifeless River remained. Rumours were that this Lifeless River in the Corner of Yong Ying was only a small portion of the complete Lifeless River and there was still a portion of it in the true Immortal World.”
Mo Wuji was astonished and asked once more, ”So the Immortal World has 10 immortal domains?”
The white haired cultivator answered, ”There were indeed 10 immortal domains initially but there are only 7 big immortal domains remaining. Back then, after the Lifeless Dao Sect was destroyed, there was another incident that ignited the huge war between the 10 immortal domains once more. This time around, three big immortal domains were destroyed during the fight.”
”What did the Lifeless Dao Sect obtained? It could actually spark off so many internal conflicts?” Another cultivator by the side asked.
The white haired cultivator shook his head, ”I don’t know about this. Furthermore, I’ve heard that for long periods in a year, this Lifeless River was extremely calm. However, there were turbulent waves in the river and who knows what would emerge from it?”
At this moment, a pillar emerged out from the bottom of the Lifeless River towards the sky and a mysterious energy was emitted from it. The very moment Mo Wuji felt this mysterious energy, he could feel his entire body becoming cleaner as if all the impurities in his body was brought away by this mysterious energy. Even all 108 meridians of his started to clear up.
Mo Wuji was shocked, as this energy that he just felt was definitely something extraordinarily good.
Mo Wuji wasn’t the only one who felt it as the remaining cultivators beside him could feel it too. Presently, even though Mo Wuji was here, all the other cultivators couldn’t hold their excitement any longer as they dashed into the Lifeless River.
No one would not be excited after witnessing the emergence of such a heaven-earth unique treasure. Mo Wuji was equally tempted because what was the key to cultivation dao? Other than having a correct mindset and hard work, it was how one made use of opportunities.
If one couldn’t be bothered to seize the opportunity presented in front of him, there was really no point in further cultivation.
After everyone else had jumped into the Lifeless River, Mo Wuji followed as he made his way to the Lifeless Riverbed.
…
Mo Wuji had no idea how long he had stayed on this Lifeless Riverbed but he could only experience a deathly stillness the last time he was here. This time around, the moment he stepped on the riverbed, he could feel a threshing energy.
The strong waves of the Lifeless River were not only evident as roaring waves on the surface but a tumbling motion on the riverbed too.
At this instant, the Lifeless River was like boiling water in a pot.
Mo Wuji could feel that same energy which could cleanse his meridians and even his soul coming from further down the riverbed.
In fact, further down the riverbed would be towards the direction of the Immortal Seeking Staircase which was why Mo Wuji was the first to rush over in a jiffy.
Because of Mo Wuji’s extreme speed coupled with his extreme familiarity with this place, he was able to arrive at the place emitting the mysterious energy in just over two hours.
An enormous faint purple gourd appeared in front of Mo Wuji and as the gourd was lying on the riverbed, it’s cover was opened leaking out a mysterious, distinct spiritual energy. The closer Mo Wuji approached this gourd, the clearer he could feel the energy cleansing his entire body.
Even though Mo Wuji couldn’t recognise this energy, he knew that it was of the peak grade. He landed right beside this gourd and extended his hand to pick up this gourd.
However, Mo Wuji felt dejected very soon after because even though he had exerted all his spiritual will and elemental energy, this gourd didn’t even move an inch. Moments later, Mo Wuji made a decision to enter the gourd.
Experts of the Immortal World might come to claim this treasure very quickly so he had to make this gourd his as soon as possible.
Moreover, Mo Wuji had his own suspicions as to why this gourd landed here with its cover opened. He suspected that the cover was opened because of the battle between the two peerless experts earlier on. The repercussions of their fight must had destroyed the gourd’s restrictions and revealed this originally concealed gourd.
