Chapter 535: Touching The Heart
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
Just a simple Wind Escape Technique, was able to evolve to great sacred art which could beckon for the winds; ostensibly, that’s how impressive the Book of Luo was. Moreover, Mo Wuji also found that the Book of Luo was especially able to develop and evolve techniques and sacred arts of the five elements. Whether it was for skills of the five elements, or the unique elements (Lightning, Wind and Ice) which were closely tied to the five elements, possessing the Book of Luo was equivalent to adding wings to a tiger.
Mo Wuji was sure that if Murong Xiangyu wanted to replace her cultivation technique, her five pages of the Book of Luo was definitely able to do that. Moreover, she wouldn’t simply be able to change to an average cultivation technique, but a peak grade one.
Mo Wuji definitely wouldn’t forget about the favour of these two pages.
Even Mo Wuji could not help but sigh in praise at the impressiveness of the Book of Luo; he only read the opening section and he had already understood a wind-type great sacred art. Even though he had yet to successfully cultivate it, that was merely a temporary problem. What if he read an entire page, how much benefits would he have? And what if he obtained the entire book, he would simply be able to go against the heavens. Previously, he even thought that the Book of Luo wasn’t comparable to the Red Karmic Fire Lotus. Now that he looked at it, he was really wrong.
Moreover, Mo Wuji even heard that the Book of Luo was an attack-type treasure. The moment he refined it, he would have a formidable attack method.
However, Mo Wuji didn't go and refine the Book of Luo. First, two pages were simply too little. To put it in other terms, these two pages were merely a fraction of the entire book. Secondly, he merely read the front section of the Book of Luo and he had already gained enlightenment on a wind-type sacred art, and close to a year passed because of that. If he refined this Xiantian treasure just like that, and gained all its insights, then decades or even centuries would pass.
As he thought of it, it had already been over a year since he entered the Broken World. Now that a year had passed, everyone could already enter this third level of the Broken World. Finding immortal herbs probably wouldn’t be as easy as it was before, so it was better if he left now. After all, he still had a store in Sharphorn Immortal Ruins.
Just as Mo Wuji wanted to leave his Undying World, he saw a violent vibration on his array-made display screen.
This was a spatial vibration? To prevent any sort of unforeseen situations, Mo Wuji had installed a monitoring array outside his Undying World. The moment the monitoring array detected any sort of spatial ripples, his display screen within his Undying World would start to vibrate.
Looking at the intense spatial ripples, Mo Wuji knew that this was due to a battle. Mo Wuji immediately threw away his idea of leaving now. He even retracted his spiritual will and stared at his display screen.
The spatial ripple lasted for a short period of time; thereafter, three people appeared on his display three. Among the three, one man and one woman were surrounding and attacking a middle-aged cultivator. Mo Wuji only needed a single glance at their skills to know for sure that any one of these three people was stronger than him.
This three fellas should be in the Grand Yi Immortal Stage.
The middle-aged man’s power was roughly the same as the individual strengths of the man and the woman. But now that the two of them were working together against him, he was placed at a severe disadvantage.
Just when Mo Wuji thought that this middle-aged man was going to be killed, the silver hook in the middle-aged man’s hand struck against the woman, drawing her blood. The woman immediately retreated with a pale face. Mo Wuji finally had a clear look at that woman’s face; she was an extremely pretty woman, compared to Murong Xiangyu, she was not much inferior.
What left an indelible impression was that this woman had the appearance of an innocent and little girl. The moment one saw her, he could not help but feel some tenderness towards her.
When the man saw that his companion had been injured, he hurriedly used his spear to conjure boundless spear shadows to trap that middle-aged man. Before the middle-aged man could struggle free from his spear shadows, a flying dagger shot through this middle-aged man’s forehead.
”Meimei, are you ok?” After the man killed the middle-aged cultivator, he hurriedly rushed to the woman’s side and supported her up.
The woman’s face was slightly pale, she waved her hand and said, ”Brother Tian, I’m fine, there’s no need to worry. It’s just that the person’s hook was lined with poison; I have been poisoned…”
”Ah, that fella is so cunning. Let me hurry and take a look whether he has an a.ntidote on him.” The man immediately turned towards the middle-aged cultivator.
In his heart, Mo Wuji was also thinking: ”No wonder”. He had thought that this woman had only been struck once by the hook, her face shouldn’t be so pale. So it turns out she was poisoned.
However, at the very next instant, Mo Wuji was stupefied. Just as that ‘Brother Tian’ turned his body, that woman took out a long sword and swiftly stabbed it from the back of the man’s head and through his Mind Palace.
The man arduously turned his head and asked, ”Meimei, why…”
The woman didn’t even bother to answer as she twisted the long sword. The man collapsed heavily onto the ground, and soon, his breath became air.
Mo Wuji tightly clenched his fist; his entire body was shaking slightly. He saw Xia Ruoyin in this woman, and his past self in this man. Those years ago, this was also how he got killed by Xia Ruoyin.
After some time, Mo Wuji finally calmed himself down. Unfortunately, his power was too weak. If he was stronger, he would definitely have gone out to kill this despicable woman.
After the woman killed her companion, she took the rings from the two corpses, then burned them both to ash. Only then, did she swiftly leave the scene.
What a despicable woman; after she killed her lover, she didn’t even bother burying him. She even burned him with a flame.
