Chapter 923: The Treasure In The Gorge
Translator: Sparrow TranslationsEditor: Sparrow Translations
The Five Elemental String tore through Mo Wuji's whirlpool domain at lightning fast speeds, piercing accurately into Mo Wuji's skin. A huge tearing force came over; the strength of Mo Wuji's God Physique was revealed at this moment.
Supposedly, the five strings should have directly torn Mo Wuji into pieces. But because Mo Wuji's physique was too strong, only two managed to penetrate through his body. Moreover, their explosive elemental energies were neutralised within Mo Wuji's body. As for the remaining three, they were all blocked by Mo Wuji's bones.
Mo Wuji’s sea of consciousness suddenly started to tremble. Even though only two strings pierced through his body, the dao laws within these two strings actually tried to seal his sea of consciousness.
”Kid, let’s see where else you can go to…” Wu Liang’s cold laughter suddenly sounded beside Mo Wuji. At the same time, a cold light sailed through the air, cleaving towards Mo Wuji’s forehead.
Mo Wuji was inwardly very shocked. Not only was this Senior Brother Death very strong, he also had many methods. Even his very own teleportation couldn’t allow him to appear out of the depths of the gorge in such a short time. This was because there was a strong gravitational force within this gorge; it was easy to enter but hard to leave. Moreover, this Senior Brother Death was even able to do it without him noticing it.
This was probably due to some spatial transfer ability in this fella’s Five Elemental String, allowing Wu Liang to directly be sent out from the depths of the gorge.
However, such a method was not enough to kill him, Mo Wuji. There was no need to talk about how these two strings didn’t manage to completely seal his sea of consciousness. Even if his sea of consciousness was completely sealed, he still had his spirit storage channel.
At the same instant that Wu Liang tried to kill him, Mo Wuji made his move. His Half Moon Weighted Halberd conjured a huge, silver river which cascaded down towards Wu Liang.
Mo Wuji was shocked, but Wu Liang was even more so. Even God Monarchs would face difficulties against his Five Elemental String’s Five Elemental Space. The moment the Five Elemental String was in place, even if it couldn’t tear his opponent’s body apart, it would still trap him within the Five Elemental Space.
Even though this puny Nascent God didn’t notice his Five Elemental String, only two out of the five managed to pierce through his body. Clearly, his opponent was an extremely strong physique temperer that was at the late stage God Physique at the very least. It was already an incredible feat for a mere Nascent God to reach the late stage God Physique.
As he thought about Mo Wuji’s strength, Wu Liang suddenly had a weird sense of excitement. He, Wu Liang, believed that he was extremely strong despite being at the Nascent God Stage. Besides his talent, a more important reason for this were the secrets that he, Wu Liang, had.
His greatest secret was his Five Elemental String.
He definitely didn’t believe that this incredibly strong Nascent God in front of him didn’t have any secrets. As long as he managed to kill this fella, all those secrets would belong to him.
Fantasies are beautiful, but reality is often very cruel. Before Wu Liang’s cold light approached Mo Wuji’s forehead, an overbearing sensation of death wrapped around him. He lifted his head to see a cascading, silver river.
At this point, how could Wu Liang still want to try and kill Mo Wuji? Even though he could end Mo Wuji’s life at the expense of his own, he wouldn’t do such a thing. His figure immediately flashed as he tried to escape. Suddenly, he felt as though the space around him had been sealed. Wu Liang was actually unable to flash away.
In his anxiety, he directed the cold light, which he shot towards Mo Wuji, towards the silver river. It was also at this instant that Mo Wuji’s Spatial Imprisonment ended.
”Kacha!” The halberd light crashed against the cold light, turning the cold light into nothingness. In that short gap, Wu Liang was finally able to move.
”Pff!” A trail of blood gushed out. The halberd light which could have cleaved Wu Liang in half only managed to decapitate one of Wu Liang’s arms.
Wu Liang’s figure flashed as he charged into the depths of the gorge.
He managed to bring away three of the Five Elemental String. The two that pierced through Mo Wuji were locked in place by Mo Wuji’s elemental storage channel and spirit storage channel. Wu Liang wasn’t able to quickly pull them out and he also didn’t dare to tangle himself with Mo Wuji any further.
Mo Wuji pulled out those two strings and threw them into his Undying World. A greyish white mist oozed out of his injuries. An intense sensation of weakness began to spread throughout his body. His detoxification channel went into action and swept that greyish white mist away.
What a strong Law of the Five Elements ; Mo Wuji exclaimed inwardly. This Law of the Five Elements was actually able to create a fatal poison. This was the first time he saw such a thing. If he didn’t have his detoxification channel, then he might have really fallen by that.
To be famous throughout the entire God Domain Nest, this Senior Brother Death truly had some moves.
Without waiting for his injuries to fully heal, Mo Wuji charged into the depths of the gorge. Even if there weren’t any treasures below, Mo Wuji didn’t intend to let Wu Liang off.
…
The gorge couldn’t be considered shallow but it also wasn’t as deep as Mo Wuji imagined. In merely half an incense’s time, Mo Wuji found Wu Liang with his spiritual eye. The bloodied Wu Liang was sitting among a pile of crushed rocks.
