Chapter 784: Setting Sun

”Stop, I am the Young Lord of the Gods Race. If you kill me, there's nowhere under the skies that you can run to…” Wu Li shouted harshly. Even though he still had some methods to escape, it would be at the cost of igniting his vital dao foundations. If he did that, it would be hard for him to recover the talent that he worked so hard to accumulate. Moreover, he would not be able to devour spiritual roots to raise his talent.

Additionally, he had already released his killing ace; his killing ace was Broken Sand.

Within the void, there was an extremely rare kind of flower. This flower was called Broken Sand Flower. The Broken Sand Flower didn't have a tier; it was an extremely beautiful flower that bloomed in the void. However, if it was refined into Broken Sand, then it would be an undefeatable weapon. Many knew of Broken Sand, but only few could actually obtain it. This was because this flower truly too rare.

Broken Sand wasn't a sacred art, but it was far more terrifying than any sacred art. This was a poison without an antidote. It's rumoured that it didn't matter how powerful you are, even if you're a Dao Emperor, Broken Sand would be able to turn you into minute grains of sand. Thereafter, you will disappear without a trace as you scatter into the wind.

This was one of the reasons why Wu Li dared to continuously challenge experts and obtain such a huge reputation. Another reason was because he was sure that he would be able to escape.

All this while, he had never met a person that required him to use his forbidden escape technique, nor had he met an opponent who he had to use his Broken Sand on.

When Wu Li knew that Mo Wuji was much stronger than him, he cried for Mo Wuji to stop. That was also when he used that chance to release his Broken Sand.

Even though Broken Sand was rare and valuable, it wasn't as important as his future and his life.

Stop? Mo Wuji acted as though he didn't hear his opponent's words. He had never stopped when battling G his opponents.

”Crack!” It was like slicing through tofu; Winding River sliced through Wu Li's gold stamp and ripped through Wu Li's domain.

How was this possible? When Wu Li saw that nothing had happened to Mo Wuji even after he used his Broken Sand, his face changed drastically. By this time, did he still have to consider whether he should use his forbidden escape technique? One spiritual root after another was ignited as his entire body started to turn illusory.

”Pff!” As Winding River descended upon him, Wu Li's illusory body returned to its tangible state.

A fog of blood burst out as Wu Li's tangible body was sliced in half.

”No…” The decapitated Wu Li shrilled in grief. He didn't believe that he would die like this; he didn't believe that someone would be able to resist his Broken Sand; he didn't believe… However, darkness continued to sweep over him. He no longer had the chance to find an answer.

Mo Wuji opened his palm, retrieving Wu Li's storage ring. Thereafter, he shot out a ball of flame and burned Wu Li's body to dust. Only a gold stamp, which had been sliced in half by Mo Wuji, sat desolately at a corner of the Dao Discussion Stage.

Mo Wuji's heart was also filled with shock. Don't simply look at how simple it was for him to kill Wu Li. In reality, he knew that if he didn't have the detoxification channel, he would have been screwed. To think that this Wu Li had a potent poison like Broken Sand. There was no need to talk about how this poison didn't have an antidote, even if it did, who was able to administer it in time during a battle?

The entire Heaven's Beyond Dao Plaza went silent. It wasn’t out of the ordinary for a Dao Discussion Challenge with Wu Li to last a single move. This was because Wu Li had always ended many dao discussions with a single move.

However, that was Wu Li vanquishing his opponent in a single move, not his opponent vanquishing him.

Immediately, many people thought about the aftermath of this incident. Even though Wu Li had never received any support from anyone in Cosmos Edge, it was because Wu Li didn’t need anyone’s help. But now that Wu Li was killed, things definitely wouldn’t be so simple. Many believed that Wu Li had an unordinary status in the Gods Race.

Now that such an unordinary person had been killed on the Dao Discussion Stage, how could the Gods Race simply let it go?

If the Dao Discussion Stage was truly a fair place, then perhaps things might be simpler. However, even an idiot knows that neither the Dao Discussion Stage, nor the entire Cosmos Edge itself, was a fair and just place.

…

”So strong.” With the room at the highest level of Heaven’s Beyond Resthouse, Ji Ku was stroking his beard. He had completely forgotten about the wine that he wanted to drink.

Beside him, Cosmos Edge’s Dao Lord Feng Huang also exhaled and said, ”He’s indeed very strong.”

After some time, Ji Ku said slowly, ”Even though this person isn’t comparable to me, he’s not far off.”

Previously, he already guessed that Mo Wuji would win. However, he would never have thought that Mo Wuji would win in such a clean and straightforward matter. He even intended to find some trouble with Mo Wuji after this Dao Discussion Challenge.

Naturally, his excuse would be that Mo Wuji had killed the bisexual Immortal Reverent. Since Mo Wuji was so rich, he wanted to extort some green crystals from Mo Wuji. That way, not only would he obtain green crystals, he would also be doing a favour for the Gods Race.

But now, he directly abandoned this thought. Even though Mo Wuji was not as powerful as him, Mo Wuji wasn’t much worse. He did not need to offend such a person for mere green crystals.

Feng Huang didn’t say a word. He was sure that Mo Wuji was stronger than Ji Ku. Unfortunately, that Wu Li had been too weak; so Mo Wuji only needed a single sacred art, Winding River, to defeat him. Feng Huang had seen this sacred art before in the recording crystal ball. Now that he had personally witnessed it, he started to contemplate on how he could avoid it if he was the one attacked by it.
