Chapter 598: Mo Wuji Must Be Killed
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
The cave with the densest immortal spiritual energy inside of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance opened on its own, and out came a grey robed youth. This grey robed youth had a rather outstanding look, and while not extremely well built, was at least very lean.
”Congratulations Alliance Head on completing closed door cultivation.” Once the youth came out, the ten over Pill Dao Immortal Alliance pill masters and elders quickly bowed respectfully. This youth was the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance’s Alliance Head, Xiao Lishi, who was also the person with the highest level of pill dao in the alliance. On top of that, he was one of the Immortal Emperors of the alliance, even being in the advanced Immortal Emperor Stage. If it weren't for his wholehearted dedication to researching into pill dao, someone of his talent and background should have entered the ranks of Great Immortal Emperors a long time ago.
Xiao Lishi’s expression remained unchanged, and he maintained a calm disposition. There wasn’t a single speck on dust on his body either. If strangers saw him now, they wouldn’t think that he had just come out from a thousand years of closed doors cultivation, instead probably getting the impression that he had just exited his bedroom.
”Thanks everyone for welcoming me. Let’s talk in the Pill Dao Hall.” Xiao Lishi raised his hand and spoke in a cordial tone.
Pill Dao Immortal Alliance’s Tier 7 Pill Emperor,Gong Yangxue, was obsessed about pills, so before they had reached the Pill Dao Hall, he couldn’t help but ask, ”Alliance Head, have you broken through the bottleneck to advance to Tier 9 Pill Emperor?”
With a sigh, Xiao Lishi replied, ”I went through a thousand years of closed door cultivation, but every time I was at the verge of a breakthrough, there was just that little bit lacking. Perhaps even after a hundred thousand years, I still won’t be able to overcome this small obstacle.”
Hearing that, Gong Yangxue’s expression became sullen.
Xiao Lishi knew Gong Yangxue’s personality all too well, so he grinned and spoke again, ”Pill Master Gong Yang, even though I am still unable to advance to Tier 9 Pill Emperor, I am still the best pill master in the Immortal World. After this round of closed door cultivation, my understanding towards pill dao has improved further. Moreover, I don’t think a Tier 9 Pill Emperor won’t appear within the next 10,000 years.”
However, Gong Yangxue seemingly ignored the fact that Xiao Lishi was the Alliance Head of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance, as he shook his head and replied without hesitation, ”This may not be the case. That Mo Wuji is probably not even a hundred years old, but he’s already a Tier 5 Honoured Grade Pill King, and his knowledge of refining immortal herbs is even more frightening. He could actually refine the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass to almost 100% purity. With time, he would likely become a Pill Emperor.”
”Who is this Mo Wuji? A Tier 5 Honoured Grade Immortal Pill King who’s not even a hundred years old? He could really refine the Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass to almost 100% purity?” Xiao Lishi stopped in his tracks, and was completely surprised, firing off a barrage of questions.
As a pill refiner about to advance to Tier 9 Pill Emperor, Xiao Lishi was more aware than anyone else what a Tier 5 Honoured Immortal Pill King under 100 meant. Even if it were him, the hardest part of pill refining was refining the immortal herbs. Jade Pomegranate Immortal Grass was not that high a grade, but the difficulty in refining it was very well known. This sort of immortal herb, even he was unable to refine to near 100% purity.
If such a person did exist, how talented was this guy’s pill refining? No, not only pill refining, his talent for cultivation would definitely be unparalleled.
Pill Dao Immortal Alliance’s Vice Alliance Head, Hu Zhenyu, quickly went forward to speak, ”Alliance Head, the story behind this is quite long. Let’s continue back in the hall.”
Yet, Xiao Shili did not bother with Hu Zhenyu at all, instead staring straight at Gong Yangxue, ”All those here are elders of my Pill Dao Immortal Alliance. If there’s really a Tier 5 Honoured Grade Pill King under 100, then he will undoubtedly become number 1 in Immortal World’s pill dao. No, even in terms of cultivation level, there will not be many that can surpass him.”
To Xiao Lishi, it would take at least a Grand Yi Immortal Stage cultivator to be able to concoct Tier 5 Unique Grade Immortal Pills. Naturally, he did not know that Mo Wuji cultivated with meridians, and had 108 meridians, with no spiritual roots and an ordinary body. Even his pill dao was different for the mainstream pill dao.
Who could actually refine immortal herbs to almost 100% purity? Mo Wuji could, but who could use a spirit storage channel to concoct pills? Mo Wuji could.
Gong Yangxue was not really interested in power, and all he bothered about was pill dao. To him, the news of Mo Wuji was nothing more than a routine report of another Pill Dao Immortal Alliance’s elders perishing and subsequently being found. He was not aware of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance's dealings with Grand Emperor Lun Cai, and neither did he want to know.
This sentence of Xiao Lishi was obviously targeted at Hu Zhenyu. After he finished speaking, he then turned towards Hu Zhenyu, and said one word, ”Speak.”
In his heart, Hu Zhenyu felt a jolt. How could he not understand what the alliance head meant? Xiao Lishi was aware that Gong Yangxue was focused on pill dao and did not care about anything else. Despite that, the alliance head still spoke in such a manner, which reflected the extent of unhappiness that the alliance head had towards him. It was probably because Xiao Lishi felt that things were important and urgent, but Hu Zhenyu actually said that it wasn’t important and even hard to explain.
Thus, Hu Zhenyu did not dare to beat around the bush any further, and reported, ”Mo Wuji’s understanding of pill dao is frightening, and the first time he entered the Pill Dao Pagoda, he had already become a Tier 4 Honoured Grade Pill King, and subsequently also our alliance’s elder and an elder of the Sharphorn Immortal Ruins branch…”
