Chapter 721: Escape Or Die
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
Gu Feiyi’s heart turned cold as a feeling of despair flooded into his mind. The confidence that he built up ever since he started cultivating was shattered at the very moment.
It wasn’t that he was afraid of death; it was the sense of helplessness that inundated him.
He was an esteemed late stage Grand Luo Immortal. However, he was being pinched to death like a tiny chicken by someone that wasn’t even in the Immortal King. This disparity in power was too hard for him to accept.
One must know that Immortal Kings weren’t able to enter the fourth level of the Broken World. That meant that this person, who easily destroyed his domain and was currently pinching his neck, was only a Great Circle Grand Luo Immortal at the very most. To be so much weaker than another cultivator at the same stage, how could his confidence not disintegrate?
”Kacha!” With a final pinch of his immortal elemental energy, Mo Wuji turned Gu Feiyi’s entire body into a mist of blood.
Gu Feiyi had great expectations; he believed that the instant he died, his primordial spirit would immediately transmit his final scene to his soul tablet. Even if his opponent was an Immortal King, that scene could still be transmitted. Unfortunately, Mo Wuji’s didn’t even give him that chance; Mo Wuji wasn’t an Immortal King, but his methods were far more terrifying than one.
”Big Brother, I have the Red Karmic Fire Lotus,” Dou Hualong said agitatedly. Even though his voice was slightly weak, it could not conceal his incomparable excitement and emotion.
Mo Wuji retrieved two healing pills and directly sent them into Su Rou’Er’s and Dou Hualong’s mouths. With his ability, he could tell that Dou Hualong’s and Su Rou’Er’s injuries weren’t light.
”Big Brother, I will give the red lotus to you.” Dou Hualong did not hesitate to pat his Mind Palace, causing a beautiful red lotus to appear in front of him.
Mo Wuji didn’t simply wait for the red lotus’s energy to spread, as he immediately sent the red lotus into his Undying World. Mo Wuji knew that if the matter regarding the red lotus was revealed, then it would be very hard for him to bring it out.
”Let’s go. We will discuss further. The red lotus was obtained by you; so it’s your fortune. When we return back to the sect, I will return the red lotus back to you,” Mo Wuji said with a sigh of relief. Actually, he was also impressed with Dou Hualong’s luck. There were so many experts vying for the Red Karmic Fire Lotus, but it actually ended up in Dou Hualong’s hands. What’s luckier was that no one seemed to know about it.
Moreover, Dou Hualong’s cultivation might even be the lowest one currently in the entire Broken World.
”Big Brother, my cultivation is too low, I can’t…”
Mo Wuji waved his hand and interrupted Dou Hualong’s words, ”Everyone started from a low cultivation. Your cultivation might be low now, but that does not mean that it would always be low. Any other matters regarding this can be discussed later. Let’s leave this place first.”
If the Red Karmic Fire Lotus had been obtained by someone from Blade Scar Mountain, then Mo Wuji would definitely enter the struggle for it. But since it was Dou Hualong that obtained the Red Karmic Fire Lotus, Mo Wuji would only feel happy on behalf of Dou Hualong.
”Senior Brother Mo, the sect has been established?” Su Rou’Er asked in pleasant surprise.
”Yes, but the sect’s name has been changed to Ping Fan. Tian Ji Sect’s Su Zi’An, Lu Ming, Hai Zhenkui and Fan Wa have ultimately returned back to the sect,” Mo Wuji smiled and said.
Previously, a huge reason why he took Su Rou’Er was due to pity. Of course, Su Rou’Er being a Tian Ji Sect disciple was also a contributing factor. However, his opinion towards Su Rou’Er had changed completely; Su Rou’Er was clearly a principled person. Otherwise, Dou Hualong wouldn’t have lived till now, nor would he have the Red Karmic Fire Lotus.
When placed in the same circumstances, Pu Zi did something entirely different. Moreover, one must know that when compared to the Red Karmic Fire Lotus, the Immortal Traversing Ship was not even worth mentioning. Even before he could leave a spiritual will imprint on Pu Zi, Pu Zi had already escaped. He did not manage to ask Pu Zi whether he was the traitor, but seeing what happened, Mo Wuji had some rough answers in his heart.
If Pu Zi was truly without a guilty conscience, he wouldn’t have escaped.
”Ah… Elder Su is still alive…” Su Rou’Er cried out emotionally. The name of the sect didn’t really matter to her, but it was great news that her sect’s Elder Su was still alive.
”Boom!” An intense tremor resounded through the air, Mo Wuji suddenly turned to face the Northwest direction.
”This does not seem like the sounds of a battle,” Dou Hualong said carefully.
”We’ll go over and take a look. The two of you, follow me,” Mo Wuji did not hesitate to say.
If it was something else, Mo Wuji wouldn’t have said such a thing. Now that the Red Karmic Fire Lotus had ended up in their hands, the best thing for them to do was to get out of here. After all, the most precious treasure in the entire fourth level was probably the Red Karmic Fire Lotus.
However, during that violent tremor, Mo Wuji felt a familiar aura - the aura of the Book of Luo.
Mo Wuji still had a page of the Book of Luo on him, and he was especially clear of how impressive it would be if the entire book was gathered. Even if the book wasn’t assembled, just a single page was already a priceless treasure. Now that such a thing had appeared, how could he let it go?
”Senior Brother Mo, I still have a matter to tell you.” Su Rou’Er said as she followed by Mo Wuji’s side.
