Chapter 1218: Snatch (2/2)
The moment Mo Wuji arrived, he started preparing void runes around the auction stage's seals. Now that the Tao Tie Pot had come out, his Earth Shrinking brought him to the stage with a single step and his void runes were activated. Before everyone could react, the Tao Tie Pot was already snatched.
Just as Mo Wuji finished sending the Tao Tie Pot into his Mortal World, ten figures landed around Mo Wuji, tightly surrounding him.
”Haha… I, Wu Huang, have lived for so many years but this is the first time seeing someone snatching items in my Sage Dao Conference. You have balls. You truly have balls.” The one laughing was a short man in grey robes. Mo Wuji had heard of the name, Wu Huang, before. He was an expert of the Gods Race.
From this fella's aura, Mo Wuji knew that Tian Hen was wrong. This was an expert that was no weaker than a Sage.
Perhaps from others' perspective, Wu Huang was weaker than the other eight Sages because he didn't have a God Throne. However, Mo Wuji did not see it the same way. He had a premonition that Sages with God Thrones were confined to this universe. Only Sages without God Thrones could have an opportunity to take a step further.
Wu Huang was so strong but he didn't obtain a God Throne. It was possible that this fella already understood that fact.
”Keke, this is also the first time that I, Yuan Jie, am seeing this. It's bad to sin like this. After seeing something good, you couldn't even control your emotions. How do you cultivate the Dao?”
”So it's really you. Today, I want to see where else you can go. Hahahaha…” A wild laughter came. Following which, two people descended from mid-air.
Mo Wuji recognised the two of them. One was Sage Qing Yuan and the other was Sage Tai Luan. Tian Hen was the one who told him of this.
”You are really strong. Back then, you were injured so heavily but Luo but you survived. You are even able to recover in a little more than 1000 years. You should feel proud of that.” Qing Yuan stared at Mo Wuji and spoke in an extremely calm tone.
Everyone in the hall originally thought that Mo Wuji was merely a wild cultivator. After heating Sage Qing Yuan's words, they were incomparably shocked. Some of the Quasi-Sages that were surrounding Mo Wuji even took steps backwards.
Until now, many didn't know who Mo Wuji was. However, no one did not know of Luo. Back then, Luo was the one who obtained the nine Dao Laws of the Universe and he was only one step from controlling the entire universe. Unfortunately, the Cataclysm caused Luo's efforts to go to waste. Not only did Luo lose the nine Dao Laws, he also disappeared.
Now, this blue-robed young man in front of them had actually survived heavily strikes from Luo. How impressive was that?
No one knew that when Mo Wuji was heavily injured by Luo, he was only a Quasi-Sage. Not only that, Mo Wuji had heavily injured Luo in return.
If they knew that Luo had fled after heavy injuries from Mo Wuji, none of these Quasi-Sages would continue surrounding Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji opened his palm and the Mortal Halberd landed in his hand. His gaze swept across the horse-faced sissy and across the crowd. His tone was calm as he said, ”Snatch? This Tao Tie Pot was mine but it was snatched by your Sage Dao Conference. Kun Yun…”
Hearing Mo Wuji call him, Kun Yun could only summon his courage and stand up, ”Various dao friends, I believe that many of you recognise me, Kun Yun. Brother Mo is right. This Tao Tie Pot was mine and I promised to give it to Brother Mo. It was just that before I could pass it to Brother Mo, it was snatched by the Sage Dao Conference. I can swear to my words. If this Tao Tie Pot wasn't snatched from my hands by the Sage Dao Conference, I will die by inner demons and be forever unable to reincarnate.”
Among the thousand people here, there were countless experts.
Mo Wuji's act of snatching the Tao Tie Pot had already incited the discontentment of the crowd. Many even suspected that Mo Wuji's wealth was entirely through snatching and plundering.
Now that Kun Yun had sworn that the Tao Tie Pot was snatched from him, many of them came to a realisation. So the Sage Dao Conference was the one that bullied the weak and snatched from Mo Wuji's friend. This Mo fella should have already prepared to snatch it back when he came here.
”Move, kill this man.” Tai Luan waved his hand and he was the first to pounce towards Mo Wuji.
No one here was clearer than him about Mo Wuji's strength. Thus, while he seemed to go all-out in his attack, he was actually holding back.
As for Sage Qing Yuan, he also charged towards Mo Wuji. Like Tai Luan, he was also holding back.
Mo Wuji's Mortal Halberd conjured a blinding and radiant silver river. Previously, his Winding River came descending from the sky. This time, his Winding River formed a majestic river which streaked across the sky.
This majestic aura swept outwards. The sacred arts landed on Mo Wuji's silver river and exploded into killing light.
Mists of blood caused this silver river to stain in a poignant manner. Yuan Jie's and Wu Huang's sacred arts were engulfed by this Winding River. Facing the rebound of god elemental energy, the two of their face's flushed red.
In a single move, the only people that still stood, besides Tai Luan and Qing Yuan who had not gone all out, were Wu Huang and Yuan Jie.
Tai Luan and Qing Yuan, who were waiting to move when Mo Wuji was restrained, were dumbfounded. Since when did this fella become so strong? So many people attacked at the same time but they weren't even able to cause him any damage? There was no need to talk about damage, there did not even seem to be any impact.
