Chapter 751: The Messy Battle
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
Mo Wuji discovered, in aghast, that the war had escalated; countless of people were engaged in slaughter and battle. Indeed, the human race were fighting against the demon race. As for the other races, some fought on the side of the human race, while others battled on the side of the demons. The entire battlefield was a mess; it resembled a scene from Hell.
Indeed, there would be a war every time the Cosmos Wall opens. Just as Mo Wuji thought of this, a powerful force landed on his back, dragging him back into the battlefield.
Before Mo Wuji could even examine what was the force that was on his back, several beams of light shot towards him. Mo Wuji could only wield his Half Moon Weighted Halberd and block against these light. However, he didn't have any intentions of counterattacking.
If it was just a few people, then he could just kill them. However, there were countless of experts here, they numbered the tens of thousands; it was impossible for him to kill them all. Moreover, he had killed cultivators from both the human race and the demon race; so he didn't belong to either side. To be honest, even he didn't know how the two races were able to distinguish each other.
Mo Wuji tried his best to stay at the edge of the battlefield. In a short period of time, he finally saw through it. The immortals on the side of the human race had a faint yellow aura circulating around them. Mo Wuji paid special attention to one particular human race cultivator; every time this cultivator kills a demon race cultivator, a mark would form on the jade bracelet on his wrist. Depending on how strong the demon race cultivator he killed was, the energy behind that mark would vary.
On the other hand, the demon race cultivators had a faint green colour around them, and they also had a similar jade bracelet on their wrists.
Clearly, there would be rewards depending on the degree of the marks on the bracelets. Mo Wuji didn't have any bracelet; so he was even less willing to take part in this war
Mo Wuji retreated to the edge in self preservation. At the same time, he started to looking out for immortals that didn't have jade bracelets.
After some time, he finally found a cultivator without a bracelet like him. This cultivator was also retreating to a corner. Unfortunately, he was actually surrounded by cultivators from both the human and demon race. Within instants, he was killed.
Mo Wuji discovered that killing the human race cultivator that killed this person actually had two new marks on his bracelet. Moreover, the energy within these two marks was very strong.
An additional mark was actually rewarded. From the looks of it, this war didn't allow those that didn't belong to either side to exist.
Mo Wuji started to feel the aura around himself; it was actually yellow with a tinge of green. This meant that he had killed both human and demon cultivators. Anyone that killed him would receive twice the rewards.
Indeed, just as Mo Wuji became cognizant of this fact, a few waves of killing intent surged towards him. At this moment, he would be a fool if he continued to fight. He did not hesitate to flee.
When the cultivators that attacked Mo Wuji saw him disappear, they didn't chase after him.
It was just that when Mo Wuji came to a stop, more attacks came over. Mo Wuji cursed in his heart, he knew it would be hard for him to rest during this war. Fortunately, he had his Wind Escape Technique and his Spatial Teleportation. Otherwise, he could only die once he was surrounded.
At this moment, Mo Wuji finally understood why this place didn't allow flight; it was to prevent people from escaping. At the same time, he became clear about what had prevented him from leaving; it should have been a trap array. This trap array was rather peculiar, it seemed to appear because of the Cosmos Wall.
If he guessed correctly, this trap array would only disappear when this war ends. Before this war ends, all those that took part in the pillage of the Cosmos Wall must take part in the war.
No wonder one must join a side in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. If not, it would be extremely hard to survive in such a war. Even though he had his spirit storage channel and his elemental storage channel, as well as a whole pile of healing drugs, this constant state of fleeing was exhausting him greatly.
Unfortunately, he hadn't know of these rules. If an average person knew of these rules, they would probably hide within Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square and not take part in the pillage, right? But to Mo Wuji, he would still come even if he knew the rules. The benefits from the Cosmos Wall were truly overwhelming.
The messy war got messier. There was no order or war tactics; everyone simply engaged in mutual slaughter.
If he was an observer that didn't understand the reason behind this war, Mo Wuji would definitely have looked toward them with disdain. This war was simply a low-level one; everyone was basically fighting individually and their killing intents were directed everywhere.
