Chapter 540: The Origin Of The Tian Ji Pole (2/2)
Following Yuan Gu’s rise in power, his desires began to expand. He secretly got rid of the loyal elders that opposed him. Eventually, 90% of the upper echelons of Tian Ji Sect were his men. There was one time that Tian Ji Sect was accepting disciples and a female disciple with exceptional talent and gorgeous beauty was taken in. Yuan Gu had his eyes on her but that girl’s principles were very strong and she rejected Yuan Gu. In his anger, Yuan Gu extracted her soul and refined it.
He never expected that Sect Head Yan would actually chance upon this scene. Sect Head Yan was enraged and immediately wanted to kill Yuan Gu. However, Yuan Gu’s wings had already hardened; with the help of several elders, he surrounded and killed Sect Head Yan. After Sect Head Yan died, Yuan Gu became the sect head of Tian Ji Sect. If not for a gratitude from Tian Ji Sect, my master would have already left Tian Ji Sect. She never thought that she would still die in Yuan Gu’s hands.”
Su Rou’Er explained the entire story at a single go. Because she started to reminisce her master, her voice started to choke.
”No wonder why they would defend Yu Ao. So it’s an entire gang of snakes,” Mo Wuji sneered.
Actually Mo Wuji was thoroughly disappointed in Tian Ji Sect. But after he heard Su Rou’Er’s words, his idea to rebuild Tian Ji Sect was re-ignited. If the guess of the first Tian Ji Sect Head was right, then he would also fulfil the criteria.
The cultivation world’s Tian Ji Sect had been completely destroyed and he was the one who rebuilt it. If he also rebuilt the Immortal World’s Tian Ji Sect, then wouldn’t he fulfil Sect Head Yuan Yi’s first conclusion about opening the map?
”It is exactly because of this that I plead senior to rebuild Tian Ji Sect. I don’t wish for Tian Ji Sect to end up in the hands of a person like Yuan Gu.” Su Rou’Er’s voice was filled with anticipation, as well as a hint of imploration.
Mo Wuji nodded, ”The three of you can stay in my Tian Ji Pill Court. No one here would dare to touch my pill house. I have an urgent matter which requires me to leave, it will take two to three years. When I return, I would rebuild Tian Ji Sect.”
Hearing Mo Wuji’s promise about rebuilding Tian Ji Sect, Su Rou’Er and co. were incomparably emotional.
…
Two days later, Mo Wuji concocted large amounts of low grade pills and handed them to Dou Hualong, then he left Sharphorn Immortal Ruins with Lin Gu.
Most of the transfer arrays in Sharphorn Immortal Ruins were to the Broken World. Thus, Mo Wuji and Lin Gu had to take a flying ship to Yong Ying Immortal Domain before taking another transfer array.
The moment Mo Wuji entered the flying ship, he immediately formed seals and handed the ship over to Lin Gu to control. He wasn’t going to cultivate, nor practise with pills. With his current pill standards, he didn’t even need any last minute grinding. He wanted to refine the two pages of the Book of Luo. Even if he couldn’t refine both of them, he would try to refine one.
In Sharphorn Immortal Ruins, he was the Branch Elder of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. Those with higher cultivations than him also wouldn’t dare to touch him. For example, that Fu Zhensong had a higher cultivation but he still had to bow to Mo Wuji.
However, the moment he left Sharphorn Immortal Ruins and entered some remote area, no one would recognise who he was. If he had another clash with a Grand Yi Immortal like Fu Zhensong, that Grand Yi Immortal would probably try to kill him straight away.
Mo Wuji had personally experienced the greatness of the Book of Luo. Now that he had plenty of time and he had two pages of the Book of Luo, he would be an idiot to not refine it.
Even though he already knew that refining the Book of Luo would be difficult, he only knew exactly how difficult it was when he actually started doing it; an entire month passed but he had only scratched the surface.
Half a year passed. Mo Wuji estimated that he had refined 10% of one of the pages at the very most. At this point, he received a message from Lin Gu that they had already arrived at one of Yong Ying Immortal Domain’s fringe cities, Long Sun Immortal City.
Mo Wuji kept the two pages of the Book of Luo and sighed with emotion. With his current cultivation, he would need close to ten years just to refine one of the pages. And this was if nothing went wrong. If a problem arose, then the time would extend indefinitely.
However, after refining 10% of the first page, Mo Wuji was especially clear of the Book of Luo’s value. Because he didn’t refine it much, he still didn’t know the attack capabilities of the Book of Luo. However, there was one point that he was sure of, the defensive capabilities of his Book of Luo was multiple times stronger than that chopping board.
Seeing Mo Wuji emerge, Lin Gu kept the immortal equipment and asked, ”Brother Mo, there’s a transfer array to Yong Ying Immortal City here. Should we gather some news from Long Sun Immortal City, or head directly to Yong Ying Immortal City?”
Mo Wuji did not hesitate to say, ”Naturally, we would first go to Yong Ying Immortal City. The alchemy competition is only a few months away but we still don’t know anything about how we could take part in the competition.”
”Alright, then we would immediately go to the transfer array and head to Yong Ying Immortal City,” Lin Gu said promptly.
In her eyes, as long as Mo Wuji was a cultivator of Yong Ying Immortal Domain, then it would be extremely easy to take part in the competition.
