Chapter 797: The Jiaolong Enters The Sea (2/2)
…
The moment Mo Wuji entered the Oblique Sea, his Wind Escape Technique was stimulated to its maximum ability. Instants later, he thoroughly disappeared into the depths of the Oblique Sea like a gentle breeze.
Mo Wuji had never considered that he wouldn’t be able to escape from Bao Bu’s pursuit. As long as he could enter the Oblique Sea, he wouldn’t need to place Bao Bu on his heart. Once he enters the Oblique Sea, he would be like a Jiaolong. [1] If not for his insufficient abilities, he would have even stopped to install some killing arrays and prepare an ambush for Bao Bu.
After experiencing that fist of Bao Bu’s, Mo Wuji was deeply stunned by Bao Bu’s overbearing power. Bao Bu was even stronger than that Gods Race Dao Emperor that he killed previously. Facing such an expert, he could only barely eliminate the other party at the very most, and that would be at the cost of heavy injuries. Additionally, incurring heavy injuries in a place like this was akin to death. Mo Wuji did not wish to pit his life against a Demon Emperor like this.
Bao Bu seemed to have followed right behind Mo Wuji. However, the moment he entered the Oblique Sea, he was dumbfounded. Where was Mo Wuji? There didn’t even seem to be any ripples in the space around the area.
According to his previous intentions, even if Mo Wuji’s escape art was any stronger, he would be able to trace Mo Wuji through spatial ripples. Only now did he realise that his intentions were simply a huge joke.
As Mo Wuji reached the depths of Oblique Sea, he noticed the sloping sea and his heart was filled with incomparable shock. Compared to the description on the jade letter, this sloping sea surface of the Oblique Sea was simply majestic.
Back on Earth, the sea surface looked like a curve. This was because the Earth was spherical; so the sea surface would be curved like a sphere as well.
The sea surface here, however, was like a flat slope which extended as far as the eye could see. The sea surface was gleaming in the sunlight, leaving one feeling its vastness and boundlessness.
Knowing that Bao Bu wouldn’t be able to find him, Mo Wuji wasn’t in a rush to leave. Now that he had entered the Oblique Sea, he would have to advance to the Immortal Emperor Stage before he could return to the Oblique Sea Island.
After a little more than two hours, Mo Wuji felt Ape Mo’s position. He did not hesitate to speed over.
Above this vast and boundless Oblique Sea, Mo Wuji’s Wind Escape Technique allowed him to be like a fish in water. He did not leave a single trace as he sped across the surface of the water.
”Should we send Brother Mo a message?” After the three entered the depths of the Oblique Sea, Ape Mo could no longer hold this thought in.
Fox Chunchun’s tone was indifferent, ”Big Brother Ape, Big Brother Mo is currently being pursued by Bao Bu. It wouldn’t be appropriate for us to send him a message, right?”
There was one more sentence that Fox Chunchun didn’t say. That was if Mo Wuji had already fallen into Bao Bu’s hands, sending a message would lead Bao Bu to them. With Bao Bu’s overwhelming strength, the three of them wouldn’t be a match even if they joined hands.
”But that ruins requires four people to open.” Ape Mo’s character was straightforward. Since he had received Mo Wuji’s Elemental Dao Fruit Transformation Dao Fruit, he felt that they should wait for Mo Wuji.
Fox Chunchun was just about to say something when their communication beads suddenly lit up simultaneously.
”Brother Mo is sending us a message. He’s asking us where we are.” Golden Iron Crane uttered in astonishment. He thought that since Mo Wuji was being pursued by Bao Bu, it was likely that Mo Wuji had already perished. He didn’t expect that Mo Wuji would send a message after such a short time.
”That fella Bao Bu is vicious and devious. Could he have caught Brother Mo, then…”
Fox Chunchun didn’t manage to finish her sentence when Mo Wuji’s voice sounded from behind them, ”Fortunately you guys haven’t gone far. I was able to catch up.”
”Brother Mo, how did you know that we were here?” Golden Iron Crane’s voice was filled with shock. The Oblique Sea was vast and boundless. To find them in such a short amount of time was definitely not an easy act.
Mo Wuji was already approaching them. He smiled and said, ”I can only say that I’m lucky. I simply sent a message to the three of you, and I felt a spatial ripple in this direction. I decided to come over to take a look, and it was indeed the three of you.”
Fox Chunchun chuckled, seemingly believing that it was truly based on luck. She was carefree as she said, ”Big Brother Mo, you’ve truly come at the right time. You came just when we were thinking of how we could find you. Now that the four of us have gathered, we can finally begin. This time, I will continue leading the way. The three big brothers only need to follow behind me.”
As they were speaking, Fox Chunchun already activated her flying treasure. Mo Wuji also retrieved his flying treasure and followed behind Fox Chunchun.
”Brother Mo…” Ape Mo controlled his flying treasure to move next to Mo Wuji. He seemed to want to say something.
Mo Wuji smiled and waved his hand, ”Brother Ape, we hit it off right from the start. Next time I visit your Shattered Mountain, let me take a look at your immortal herbs.”
”Brother Mo is really a Tier 9 Pill Emperor?” Ape Mo asked in alarm. He thought that Mo Wuji was merely boasting previously to get out of the situation.
”That’s right, I’m indeed a Tier 9 Pill Emperor.” Mo Wuji did not act humble. Ape Mo and co. were vastly weaker than Bao Bu. He was completely able to deal with them; so there was no need to continue behaving modestly.
