Chapter 869: I Want To Change The Heavenly Emperor (2/2)
Qing Yang, Gai Ying, and those of the likes could tell that something was wrong with Chang Beihe. As a Grand Emperor, he still dared to challenge Mo Wuji despite knowing about his deeds. Wasn't he simply courting his death?
Kui Fengyun's face changed and he didn't move. He was very clear that he was the number one person that Mo Wuji wanted to kill here. If he dared to make a move, he might be Mo Wuji's next target. Moreover, he could tell that Chang Beihe was indeed trying to court his own death.
”Kacha!” This fist of Mo Wuji's easily landed on Chang Beihe's chest; even those at the furthest edge could hear the sound of cracking.
Mo Wuji could defeat Zhu Yin and he could even kill multiple Grand Emperors. It really wouldn't be strange to see him kill Chang Beihe this easily.
What left everyone shocked was that after this fist landed on Chang Beihe, a black mist oozed out of Chang Beihe's body. His aura didn't get weaker, and in fact, it became slightly stronger.
Before everyone could even react, they saw a scene that left them in greater disbelief: Chang Beihe actually whipped out his magic treasure.
Logically, even if Mo Wuji's fist wasn't able to kill Chang Beihe, Chang Beihe still wouldn't be able to retaliate with such energy and spirit.
But when Chang Beihe finally attacked, everyone saw that Chang Beihe's target actually wasn't Mo Wuji, but Kui Fengyun.
Even Monk Xing Shan understood what happened. There seemed to be a seal within Chang Beihe's body and that fist of Mo Wuji's helped to remove that seal.
Looking at Chang Beihe's actions, anyone that wasn't a fool could tell who was the one who laid the seal.
Indeed, when he saw Chang Beihe's attack locked onto himself, Kui Fengyun's face changed. He immediately retrieved a talisman.
But at the instant where he wanted to activate that talisman, he suddenly felt the space around him harden. A hint of hatred flashed across his eyes. He knew that Chang Beihe didn't have the capability to do such a thing; Mo Wuji definitely was the one.
”Pff!” Chang Beihe's magic treasure landed on Kui Fengyun's body, turning Kui Fengyun into a mist of blood.
Chang Beihe's hand flipped, sweeping Kui Fengyun's storage ring into his hand..He immediately handed the ring over to Mo Wuji and said, ”Many thanks to Sect Head Mo for your saving grace. This is the ring of Kui Fengyun that thief.”
Mo Wuji did not show any courtesy as he kept that ring. Chang Beihe was seeking to die. On the contrary, he saved Chang Beihe's life.
After accepting the ring, Mo Wuji didn't pry into the incident that happened between Chang Beihe and Kui Fengyun. He smiled and faced the crowd, ”I was once the sect head of Tian Ji Sect and I heard that this is the site of Tian Ji. I still need those that arrived earlier to tell me when the site of Tian Ji first appeared.”
When even a person of Yong Ying Immortal Domain like Mo Wuji didn't ask about what happened between Kui Fengyun and Chang Beihe, the others were even less willing to ask about it.
Heavenly Emperor Zizai was more familiar with Mo Wuji. He stood up and said, ”This place used to be the Immortal Chasm. However, when Half Immortal Domain collapsed, this Immortal Chasm began to spread outwards. A passage appeared nearby. This passage opens intermittently and every time it opens, it will open for roughly half a day. However, any cultivator that entered this passage would indubitably die…”
Just as Heavenly Emperor Zizai got here, a mist began to form over the innocuous-looking Immortal Chasm. Following which, an entirely new sight appeared before everyone.
A huge stone, hundreds of meters tall, stood tall above the mist. At the top of this huge stone, there seemed to be another stone that lay horizontally.
The moment Mo Wuji saw this sight, he knew that Qing Yang and co. were right; this really matched the faint image on his white Sect Head Token. This huge stone was standing above a marsh, which was also described in the jade letter than Su Zi’An gave him.
Indeed, there was a strong energy of destructive wafting out from that passage. It felt equivalent to an ordinary person standing on top of a landmine - extremely uncomfortable.
”When you go closer, you will see two words on that horizontal stone. Those two words are ‘Tian Ji’,” Gai Ying explained.
”Over the few days that you all went here, something else happened,” Heavenly Emperor Zizai added.
”What happened?” Monk Xing Shan seemed especially concerned over the events here. This was why he was extremely anxious.
”Another two people went in. However, their corpses haven’t been sent out,” Heavenly Emperor Zizai said solemnly.
Mo Wuji hurriedly asked, ”Don’t tell me that when people enter and die inside, their corpses would be sent out?”
”Yes. As long as anyone dies inside, their corpses would be sent out. It seems as though something inside feels disgust towards these corpses,” Gai Ying explained.
”Anyone recognises these two people? And did they go in together?” This time, it was Mo Wuji’s turn to be anxious.
Standing by Heavenly Emperor Zizai’s side, a pale clean-shaven man said, ”I recognised one of them; he was the Very High Heavens’ Hu Chisheng.”
Hu Chisheng? Why did this name sound so familiar? Mo Wuji soon recalled when he heard of this fella. This fella screwed over Han Yi, who was the ancestor of Han Long. Even though Han Long didn’t come to Ping Fan Immortal School, she was also considered one of them. Moreover, Han Yi was the one that brought Da Huang to the Immortal World.
