Chapter 597: Physique Tempering

”Many thanks senior. I was also intending to return to the sect.” The reason why Xu Dai left was primarily because she wanted to search for Mo Wuji, and at the same time, she wanted to see whether there was any opportunity for her to kill Dai Qi. Now that Mo Wuji had already flattened the entire Mirage Mountain, she no longer had any regrets. When she got to the Immortal World, she would still go to the Immortal World’s Mirage Mountain for revenge. Her innocent sister had been used as a blood sacrifice; she wasn’t going to simply let Mirage Mountain go.

Xu Dai was very clear that for an immortal like Mo Wuji, it was better for her to accept his gratitude.

Seeing Xu Dai accept his ring, Mo Wuji continued speaking, ”There’s a defensive treasure in that ring. You can refine it. That will guarantee that you will be able to pass your Heavenly Immortal Tribulation. I will be leaving now. If we have the opportunity, we will meet again in the Immortal World.”

Mo Wuji knew that he needed to get back to the Immortal World as soon as possible. However, he wasn’t able to use the method of the ascension pond, so the only way left was through the Hidden Dragon Pool.

…

Yi. This was Hai Yi Continent’s largest ocean. Mo Wuji was confident that with his current spiritual will, he would be able to reach the opposite bank if he was at Zhen Xing’s Sky Sea. However, at Yi, his spiritual will wasn’t even able to scan other tracks of land. One could clearly see how much bigger Hai Yi Continent was as compared to Zhen Xing.

Mo Wuji was at the intermediate Xuan Immortal Stage and he also had a map. Thus, he only needed half a month’s time to get to the rough location of the Hidden Dragon Pool.

This was a patch of reef, and the reef was even very dense. It looked like a marsh with many black mounts of soil.

In Yi Sea, there were many such dense patches of reefs. It was exactly because these reefs look rather similar, one would easily get mistaken.

However, Yan Li’s map was very clear. Even though the sea was extremely deep, the moment Mo Wuji arrived, his spiritual will was quickly able to find a submerged reef that was in the shape of a bull’s horn.

Mo Wuji sent Shuai Guo into his Undying World while he dived into the sea. Following this horn shaped reef, Mo Wuji reached the seabed after an incense’s time. This seabed was clearly enveloped by some sort of natural seals as there weren’t any marine life.

Mo Wuji was an existence that was near to the Grade 5 array master level; he was soon able to locate the seabed’s natural seal. What left Mo Wuji dumbfounded was that even with his proficiency with arrays, he was still unable to discern what kind of concealment array this was.

If he didn’t even understand this array, it was naturally impossible for him to enter.

After tossing around for two entire days, Mo Wuji decided to go back and question Yan Li. However, he suddenly recalled that if Yan Li told him about this place, then Yan Li would definitely know of this concealment array. Since that was the case, why didn’t Yan Li inform him about it?

Could it be that one must be in the dragon race to be able to get past this seal? The moment Mo Wuji thought about the dragon race, he immediately thought of the dragonscale that Yan Li gave him.

Mo Wuji hurriedly retrieved the dragonscale. Indeed, the moment he brought the dragonscale out, the concealment array started to hum. Immediately, a crack the size of a person appeared within his spiritual will.

Mo Wuji hurriedly flashed into that gap. In his heart, he was speechless. That fella actually gave him a puzzle, wasting two days of his time.

It was just as Mo Wuji predicted: after he entered, he was greeted by a spatial gate. Even though Mo Wuji still wasn’t able to install a spatial gate that could travel through worlds, he was not unfamiliar with spatial gates. There were various kinds of spatial gates. The relatively simple kind of spatial gates allowed one to travel through a distance; Mo Wuji was able to install such spatial gates. There was also another kind of spatial gate, one that crossed through worlds.

To install a world-crossing spatial gate, not only must one’s Array Dao reach the peak of the Immortal World, one’s cultivation also mustn’t be too low. If the cultivation was too low, it would be very difficult to install the spatial gate no matter how good one was with arrays.

Mo Wuji did not hesitate; the faster he returned to the Immortal World, the better. In the cultivation world, no matter how hard he worked, it would still be impossible for him to raise his abilities. If he was unable to raise his abilities, then how was he going to take his revenge. Thus, to raise his abilities as soon as possible, he could only return to the Immortal World.

The moment he entered the spatial gate, a powerful enveloped Mo Wuji, sending Mo Wuji away.

Just when Mo Wuji wanted to extend his spiritual, small bits of tiny sharp light swarmed towards Mo Wuji.

If it was just these tiny sharp light, Mo Wuji wouldn’t really care about it; he would only suffer a few minor injuries at the most. However, these minute light soon formed a scale-like whirlpool of blade light. These blade light grinded away Mo Wuji’s clothes in a short time.

Not only that, even Mo Wuji’s skin got scraped away by this blade light one layer at a time.

Mo Wuji anxiously sent his storage ring into his Undying World; he was worried these this scale-like whirlpool light would tear his storage ring apart.

The whirlpool light got stronger and stronger. Towards the end, it felt like some steel needles were being stabbed into his meat. Even with his domain, he could only block against a bit of it.

This Hidden Dragon Pool was heading towards the Immortal World; Mo Wuji knew that it would not simply take one to two hours. Even though its a spatial gate, it wouldn’t even be as short as one to two days.
