Chapter 789: Battling A Dao Emperor (2/2)
The map in Mo Wuji’s hands was obtained from Wu Li. It could be said that his time in Cosmos Edge had been very fruitful.
There’s no need to talk about how he obtained more than 3 million green crystals from Mifei Trade Union. From Wu Li’s ring alone, there was close to a million green crystals and countless of treasures. There were even some jade boxes which he had yet to open.
Additionally, there were still the rings of those three Immortal Emperors from the Gods Race. He didn’t have the time to open them yet. That would have to wait till he reaches the Shattered Ruins and settles down.
The immortal concealment boat was a Grade 9 flying treasure; so its speed was very fast. In a short two hours, Mo Wuji found the Shattered Ruins positional imprint on the jade letter map.
Mo Wuji heaved a sigh of relief. He had seen the introduction of the Shattered Ruins before; he knew that as long as he entered the Shattered Ruins, the Gods Race might not necessarily be able to find him even if they sent in all their experts.
”Brother Da Huang, how long more till we are able to enter…” Yan Yuerong didn’t even manage to finish her sentence when a blast of killing intent directly slammed against Mo Wuji’s immortal concealment boat. Even though the boat was installed with some defensive arrays, under the pressure of that immense killing intent, Yan Yuerong was momentarily unable to talk.
Not good. Mo Wuji had battled with Wu Li and the three Immortal Emperors before. At this moment, how could he not tell that this was a peak expert from the Gods Race?
”Yanrong, hurry and control the immortal concealment ship. Go into the Shattered Ruins, find a remote place to hide and wait for me. If I don’t return, stay in there and cultivate…”
Mo Wuji didn’t even finish his sentence as he charged out of the ship; his Half Moon Weighted Halberd conjured a halberd light which was tens of thousands of meters long which slashed towards the oncoming person.
When Yan Yuerong finally reacted, the immortal concealment ship had already been blasted far away from the violent immortal elemental energy. Within her mind, there was suddenly the spiritual will instructions on how to control the ship, and a jade letter map of Shattered Ruins was at her feet.
Yan Yuerong instantly reacted. If she stayed behind, she would only be a burden for her Brother Da Huang. She did not hesitate to control the immortal concealment ship and sped towards the Shattered Ruins.
Seeing Yan Yuerong leaving decisively, Mo Wuji sighed in relief.
”Boom!” Mo Wuji’s halberd light ruptured a huge silver fissure within the void. However, this fissure was easily destroyed with a single punch. As the halberd light exploded, it looked like fireworks had been set off within the void.
”No wonder why you were able to kill three Immortal Emperors and the Young Lord of my Gods Race. You truly do have some methods.” An old man whose skin was like a tree bark appeared in front of Mo Wuji. His voice seemed to have come out of a broken flute; it was extremely hard to hear.
On his back, was a pair of wings. Clearly, these wings were the reason why he was able to chase after Mo Wuji so quickly.
Mo Wuji’s heart sunk; he started to suspect whether Feng Huang had intentionally tried to retain him. If Feng Huang hadn’t told him that the experts from the Gods Race wouldn’t return for the time being, he would have left the Cosmos Edge right after coercing some green crystals from Mifei Trade Union. He wouldn’t have wasted his time with West River Religious Order.
”This Emperor is Lun Pa. Hand over your storage ring and I can consider showing you mercy…” What left Mo Wuji confused was that this wood-bark-like old man actually didn’t continue attacking. Instead, he wanted Mo Wuji to hand over his storage ring.
Mo Wuji’s mind spun, and he immediately figured out the reason. This fella was stalling for time; this fella wasn’t afraid of him, but this fella was afraid that Mo Wuji would try to escape.
When he thought of this, why would Mo Wuji want to waste any more time? His Half Moon Weighted Halberd conjured his Grand Desert which swept towards this old man. At the very next instant, his Winding River also cascaded down, and by the side of the river, was an incomplete sun..
The first three sacred arts of his Four Halberd Strikes were released almost simultaneously. Even though these three were intent-level sacred art, they didn’t cause a huge pressure due to his strong sea of consciousness and spiritual will.
Even though Lun Pa had only responded with a punch previously, and it had been a defensive punch, Mo Wuji was clear that the density of his immortal elemental energy could not compare with this Lun Pa.
Since Lun Pa was so strong, he had no other choice but to give it his all.
Moreover, it wasn’t set in stone that he was going to lose. His Grand Desert could transform into a killing array. Back on the Dao Discussion Stage, those three Immortal Emperors were too weak, and they weren’t able to force him to display the full might of his Grand Desert.
Besides his Grand Desert, he was also a physique cultivator at God Physique Level 7. Of course, he still had his killing aces: the Spiritual Will Arrow and the Wheel of Life and Death.
Lun Pa was strong, but Lun Pa was worried that he would escape. That meant that Lun Pa would hold back and behave cautiously. In such a scenario, it meant that he, Mo Wuji, would have a high chance of getting rid of Lun Pa.
Seeing Mo Wuji attack so furiously, Lun Pa snorted coldly. A giant tree appeared above his head; the huge roots of that tree shot over. Mo Wuji’s whirlpool domain was shattered inch by inch, and his Winding River had only descended halfway before being split apart by the roots.
The violent force of immortal elemental energy rebounded back on Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji felt a huge ache in his sea of consciousness and he almost coughed out some vital blood.
The only one of his three intent-level sacred arts which managed to form fully was his Grand Desert. This time, Mo Wuji’s Grand Desert didn’t form into boundless and endless waves of sand, but into millions of array flags. These millions of array flags shot into the space between the two of them.
Mo Wuji did not falter. Waving his Half Moon Weighted halberd, that incomplete Setting Sun suddenly transformed into a gigantic star which came crashing towards Lun Pa.
”Trivial tricks!” Lun Pa sneered. The giant tree erupted, transforming into a mountain of wood which blocked the Setting Sun.
The red star exploded; Mo Wuji’s Setting Sun’s intent had yet form fully before it was forcefully dispersed. Mo Wuji could no longer hold it in as his mouth opened and an arrow of blood shot out.
Lun Pa’s giant tree shattered once more, transforming into a web of wood which sealed the surrounding area. He was sure that Mo Wuji would try to escape after knowing the difference between them.
However, Mo Wuji didn’t escape. Not only didn’t he escape, Mo Wuji took a step forward. He directly condensed a Spiritual Will Arrow. Immediately, killing intent filled the entire web-locked space.
