”What are they?” The moment Mo Wuji's words were uttered, many people asked at the same time.
Anyone that could be here were either Dao Emperors, Grand Emperors, or late-stage Immortal Emperors. Even though their Array Dao might not be as strong as Mo Wuji's, they were no fools when it came to arrays.
These runes were clearly a type of array runes; it was just that they had yet to learn about them. Some people even suspected that Mo Wuji said these words intentionally; thereafter, he would secretly come back by himself so that they would be kicked out of the picture.
Mo Wuji hesitated briefly before he said, ”I’m also not too sure. Even though I have never seen such things before, I sense that they are a sort of ancient curse runes.”
Mo Wuji’s Array Dao began from Chu Xingzi’s legacy. Thereafter, he continued to develop it with his Immortal Mortal Technique. When he went into the Gods Tower’s immortal sealing array, his Array Dao met with a qualitative chance. Thereafter, in Sword Prison, he gained enlightenment on the spatial array rune. With his current attainments in the Array Dao, he was sure that he could become a Grade 9 Array Master if he spent some time studying it.
It was exactly because of this, that Mo Wuji was sure that these runes weren’t array runes. Even though he didn’t use his spiritual eye, he could faintly feel the power of curses within these runes.
”It’s likely that Dao Lord’s words are true. The Gods Race is an extremely mysterious race. I once heard that there used to be an extremely powerful curse-type sacred art in the Gods Race. However, I do not know whether that sacred art was performed through the use of runes,” Sea Race’s Dao Emperor Jiao Luan nodded his head in agreement.
He truly felt that Mo Wuji’s words were logical. His Sea Race used to have a conflict with the Gods Race, so he was relatively clearer about such matters.
”Brother Jiao, are you talking about the Great Curse Art?” Ni Kai seemed to recall something and he immediately uttered.
”Yes, I was referring to the Great Curse Art. However, even if these runes contain the art of curses, it wouldn’t be the Great Curse Art, but a minor one.” Jiao Luan nodded.
”Does Dao Lord Mo have a method of expelling the curse?” Demon Race’s Dao Emperor Ce Hong looked towards Mo Wuji expectantly.
His cultivation had reached the highest possible level here, and it was hard for him to make an improvement. If he wanted to attain a higher level, he needed to leave this region of the world.
Unfortunately, after these countless years, Ce Hong only found Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos which had relatively higher Laws of the Heaven and Earth.
Now that the Gods Race had a possible passage to a higher world, Ce Hong was one of those that desired it greatly.
There was no need to talk about how Mo Wuji didn’t have the confidence in opening this passage. Even if he did, he wouldn’t open it now. The Gods Race had imbued the curse art within these runes. Who knows what would happen if it was opened? Even if he wanted to take the risk, that would have to wait till he reaches the Great Circle of the Immortal Emperor Stage and had no other means to make an improvement.
If these weren’t curse runes but array runes, perhaps Mo Wuji would have tried it.
”My cultivation is limited. If these were array runes, perhaps I can try it. However, I have never learned about the curse arts before and I’m unable to open it,” Mo Wuji didn’t hesitate to say.
A sense of disappointment arose in Ce Hong’s heart. He hesitated briefly before he said with unwillingness, ”Perhaps we can use the blood sacrifice…”
Mo Wuji shot Ce Hong a cold glance. He knew that sacrificing the lives of hundred thousand people to open this passage was the most ruthless and cruel thing in the world. However, to these experts, the lives of others were equivalent to the lives of ants. There was no need to talk about a hundred thousand people, even if it was the lives in an entire planet, these people probably wouldn’t even bat an eye.
Seemingly feeling Mo Wuji’s displeasure, Ce Hong laughed awkwardly, ”This is open to everyone’s discussion. We should suggest the methods we can employ to open this passage.”
Mo Wuji said indifferently, ”Since I am the Dao Lord of Heaven’s Beyond, let me decide this matter. I will seal this place temporarily and we will open it when we find a suitable method. As the saying goes: There are no standards without rules. Three months later, we will hold a meeting at Cosmos Edge’s Dao Lord Estate and discuss the exact rules within Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.”
”I believe that Dao Lord Mo’s words are right. We still don’t know exactly how strong the curse art is. However, this is something from the ancient Gods Race. It’s better to be careful,” Ni Kai agreed.
”Alright, since that’s the case, I will begin installing the seals.” Mo Wuji didn’t even bother hearing the opinions of others; he directly began throwing out array flags to seal this piece of land.
He didn’t know exactly how strong the curse art was. However, he could faintly feel that this wasn’t a good place. If it was opened, it might affect more than just the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.
…
”Wuji, did you notice that when you were sealing that Gods Race ruins, Demon Race’s Ce Hong and Sea Race’s Jiao Luan looked rather unwilling?” Ape Mo said as Mo Wuji and him were leaving Gods Precipice Continent.
Mo Wuji nodded, ”I know, but this place is anything but good. Regardless of their interests, I will not agree to open it.”
”Actually, that cursed rune road might actually be a passage to a higher world. If our cultivation is higher, we could come back and take a look,” Ape Mo said seriously.
