Mo Wuji came to a halt again but this time, there were two corpses in front of him. He had no idea how long these two corpses had been dead for but the faint golden radiance within the skeleton was still very eye catching.
The two corpses were about ten feets away from each other and despite not having their fleshly bodies or their primordial spirits, they seemed to be in some sort of confrontation with each other.
There was a giant axe stuck across the throat to the left chest of one of the corpse. While the giant axe was driven deep into the skeleton, traces of killing intent were still pervading around the axe. On the other corpse, a Wolf Fang Mace perforated through the lower abdomen of the body and the killing intent encircling it was equally as shocking.
These two weapons were immortal equipments which surpassed Grade 9. Mo Wuji took in a deep breath because he had seen countless of such situations on the way here but normally, he would simply evade the corpse and chose not to touch these treasures and the corpses itself.
He was aware that given his current strength, he wouldn’t be capable enough to touch it even if he wanted to. The instance he went closer to it, he would be torn apart by the terrifying killing intent.
This time round, Mo Wuji swallowed his saliva as he stared at the finger of the corpse with his lower abdomen pierced through by the Wolf Fang Mace. There was an exquisite looking storage ring and Mo Wuji could only imagine how incredible the items inside would be if it belonged to an expert like this.
Previously, it wasn’t because Mo Wuji had no intentions of acquiring the other storage rings but because the killing intents of the corpses he met were simply too mighty. He was simply unable to approach any of the corpses even if he really wanted to.
He was similarly unable to approach this corpse but the storage ring was in a reachable position.
”Da Huang, help me see if you could retrieve that storage ring back for me. Remember not to force it,” Mo Wuji warned Da Huang repeatedly before drawing out his Half Moon Weighted Halberd as he guarded Da Huang anxiously.
Da Huang let out a ‘En’ sound before walking cautiously towards the side of the corpse. Mo Wuji watched on with great anticipation as Da Huang’s fingers were about to touch the storage ring safely.
”Boom!” The instance Da Huang’s fingers touched the storage ring, a terrifying killing intent surged towards the sky and Da Huang seemed to have been electrocuted as he was blown up into the sky like a kite before falling back down.
Mo Wuji got worried as he dashed over immediately.
A natural looking half inch deep groove appeared on Da Huang’s chest and the fluctuation of Da Huang’s energy turned extremely weak.
Mo Wuji quickly sent a green crystal into Da Huang’s body and Da Huang stood up once again,” My Lord, that storage ring is way too frightening for me to retrieve. This man was much stronger than the person who forged me.”
”Forget it, we won’t take this,” Mo Wuji replied in a hurry because he really didn’t want it anymore. He could forget about it if it was something even Da Huang was unable to retrieve. His futile attempt to retrieve the storage ring caused more harm than good because he wasted a green crystal and even caused Da Huang to suffer great pain. To make things worse, he only had three more of the green crystals meant for Da Huang.
The moment he exhausted all three of the green crystals, he would lose Da Huang’s protection and a friend. In Mo Wuji’s heart, Da Huang had already been considered his friend.
After learning his lesson the hard way, Mo Wuji didn’t continue coveting for any item in here as he was mainly focused on finding the way out of the place.
Mo Wuji and Da Huang had been wandering cautiously for over seven to eight days but there were only skeletons, all sorts of treasures or killing intent which were impossible to guard against in this place.
On this day, Mo Wuji finally sensed a trace of denser immortal energy, no, it was an elemental energy which was similar to the one of the green crystal.
”Da Huang, could you sense an elemental energy which was similar to your green crystal?” Mo Wuji suspected himself as he turned and questioned Da Huang, who was closely behind him.
Da Huang said in a low and muffled voice, ”Yes, I have indeed felt it. It was like, like…”
Da Huang seemed to be finding the correct words before saying, ”It was like the elemental energy I felt when I was first forged out. However, the energy here was not as dense as the one I first left.”
”Let’s check it out,” Mo Wuji quicken his footsteps.
Mo Wuji and Da Huang walked forward and the immortal energy became denser while the number of corpses on the floor was also increasing. Mo Wuji and Da Huang were both trying their best to avoid these corpses and regardless of how strong the magic treasures appeared to be, Mo Wuji didn’t bother with any of it.
After three days, Mo Wuji finally came to a halt as he saw a flight of stairs.
Logically speaking, Mo Wuji had been searching for a flight of stairs. Since the Gods Tower was a tower, there would be many levels in it. As long as he could find a flight of stairs, he would be able to leave this level. At this moment, Mo Wuji should be elated at the sight of a staircase but Mo Wuji was feeling suspicious and puzzled instead.
Since he was just transferred into the Gods Tower, he should be in the lowest level according to common sense and the flight of stairs that he found should be leading up to the second level. On the contrary, the flight of stairs in front of him was leading down and his spiritual will was unable to sense the end of the flight of stairs.
Could this level that he was on be the highest level of the Gods Tower?
Mo Wuji couldn’t wrap his head around this but he chose to stop thinking about it because whether he was on the highest level or not, he didn’t wish to stay in this dangerous level for any longer.
