Immortal Mortal

Chapter 819: Number One Expert In Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos

This G.o.ds Race Dao Emperor frantically tried to call his long-necked flask back. He decided that after defending against this finger of Mo Wuji’s, he would flee to the ends of the earth. Mo Wuji’s power was too terrifying. If he had some doubts as to how Mo Wuji killed Lun Pa and Qian Yisa, those doubts were all gone.

Boom! Kacha!

The flask was directly shattered. The World of Man started its destruction. This G.o.ds Race Dao Emperor fell into despair; if it was only the World of Man, perhaps he might have a chance to escape.

However, after he saw the destruction of the world of man, he saw the collapse of Heaven and Earth. Everyone was reduced to nothingness; he no longer had a chance.

The Laws of the Heaven and Earth exploded; this Dao Emperor’s everything - his cultivation, his insights, his domain, etc, were all destroyed.

When the surroundings finally calmed down, everyone only saw a deep hole which was tens of meters wide at where that G.o.ds Race Dao Emperor once was. That G.o.ds Race Dao Emperor had already disappeared.

At the same time, the remaining two Immortal Emperors from the G.o.ds Race were also killed by Ape Mo, Lu Ziting and co.

Out of the ten over Immortal Emperors and Dao Emperors that came, only three of them ultimately fought with Mo Wuji. And in a short time, these three were slaughtered.

What shocked everyone was that finger Mo Wuji used to kill that G.o.ds Race Dao Emperor; that finger seemed capable of destroying the World of Man, and even the Heaven and Earth itself. It contained a power of destruction which felt unstoppable.

Everyone thought about that finger; if that finger was not pointed towards that Dao Emperor, but them, how would they be able to defend against it? Their answer to that question left their hearts reeling in shock: they wouldn’t be able to defend against it.

Immortal Empress Wen Lan was especially emotional; she knew from a long time ago that Mo Wuji had a sacred art called Winding River. Previously, she even showed her Waterfall to Mo Wuji so that he could gain deeper insights into his Winding River.

However, that Winding River that Mo Wuji just used was far superior to what she had shown him. And that finger of Mo Wuji’s, that finger seemed capable of destroying this entire cosmos.

In just a few short years, Mo Wuji had actually grown to such a stage.

Immortal Empress released a long breath. Those years ago, both Heavenly Emperor Zizai and the experts from the Very High Heavens prophecized that Lei Hongji and Ji Yue would be the future of the Immortal World. However, the Immortal World had been chased away by the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos and the remaining survivors of the Human Race were left in their last breaths. Where were Lei Hongji and Ji Yue?

Instead, it was Mo Wuji that allowed the Human Race to continue surviving.

"Brother Mo, I was previously tricked by G.o.ds Race’s Chai Nuo. However, I a.s.sure you that I didn’t kill any Human Race cultivators…" Vampiric Race’s Dao Emperor Ni Kai had already swiftly walked forward and clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji respectfully.

He, Ni Kai, had seen Mo Wuji’s act of killing Chai Nuo with a single finger clearly. He was sure that if that finger was aimed at him, his outcome wouldn’t be any better than Chai Nuo. There probably weren’t any Dao Emperors that could be a match for Mo Wuji in a one-on-one battle. Even the G.o.ds Race’s most powerful Dao Emperor, Wu w.a.n.g, probably wasn’t a match for Mo Wuji.

To put it in other words, Mo Wuji was the number one expert in the entire Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Moreover, Mo Wuji had another powerful Dao Emperor by his side.

It can be ascertained that the G.o.ds Race would be chased out of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos by Mo Wuji. This was because the G.o.ds Race’s remaining strength was no longer enough to support them here.

There were only a total of four Dao Emperors in the G.o.ds Race. One of them went to seek for greater heights and had disappeared without the trace.

Of the remaining three, two had been killed by Mo Wuji. Would the remaining Wu w.a.n.g be able to defend against Mo Wuji? Not only that, Mo Wuji had killed a whole pile of G.o.ds Race’s Immortal Emperors, even multiple Grand Emperors and late-stage Immortal Emperors had been killed by Mo Wuji.

Coupled with the help of Feng Huang, Mo Wuji only needed to stall Wu w.a.n.g, and that Ape Mo could lead the charge for the Human Race to exterminate all the G.o.ds Race cultivators of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.

What left Ni Kai fearful was that he had never seen Mo Wuji going all out. Mo Wuji was an expert that could easily tear through Cosmos Edge’s Grade 9 immortal array; would his all-out attack be any weaker?

Mo Wuji did not respond to Ni Kai. Instead, he clasped his fists towards Lu Ziting and co., "Mo Wuji greets Senior Sister Wen Lan and the two sect heads."

In Mo Wuji’s heart, he was much closer to Immortal Empress Wen Lan than the other two.

"Sect Head Mo, if not for you, our Human Race would have been screwed," Jie Ying hurriedly bowed and said.

He was far older than Mo Wuji, but Jie Ying didn’t dare to show any disrespect. Every act of Mo Wuji was bigger than the previous one. This time, Mo Wuji even fought his way directly into Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos and tore the Cosmos Edge’s array. Which one of his acts was simple?

Wen Lan hurriedly introduced, "Junior Brother Wuji, this is Virtual Qing Dao’s Dao Lord Jie Ying. This time, the reason why our Human Race could still have a hundred thousand survivors is largely due to Dao Lord Jie Ying’s and Sect Head Lu Ziting’s efforts."

Jie Ying and Lu Ziting felt cold sweat forming on their heads. Honestly, when the Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City got invaded by the G.o.ds Race and Zi Changluo abandoned them, the two of them only thought about fleeing. Instead, it was Immortal Empress Wen Lan, who had the lowest cultivation among them, that anxiously tried to defend against the attacks of the G.o.ds Race experts so that more Human Race cultivators could survive.

When it came to character, they were guilty of being inferior to Immortal Empress Wen Lan. However, it was also during their anxious retreat that steeled their resolution to fight hard for the Human Race.

Mo Wuji also clasped his hands and said, "I have some matters that I will have to trouble the two sect heads. I request that the two sect heads lead the way to collect the G.o.ds Race’s properties within Cosmos Edge."

"Leave this matter to me. I know that G.o.ds Race’s biggest property in Cosmos Edge is the G.o.ds Cultivation Peak. I can bring my men over there." Lu Ziting was the first to respond.

Mo Wuji also knew that he had probably killed all the G.o.ds Race’s Immortal Emperors in Cosmos Edge. Lu Ziting and his men would definitely be enough. As for what Lu Ziting needed to do, there’s no need for him, Mo Wuji, to say it. Naturally, it was to kill every single one of the G.o.ds Race cultivators.

"Alright, then I will have to trouble Sect Head Lu," Mo Wuji answered.

Lu Ziting chuckled, "This is the most refres.h.i.+ng matter I could do since I, Lu Ziting, arrived at Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. How could it be considered a trouble? In fact, I have to thank Brother Mo for giving me this opportunity."

With that, Lu Ziting left. Through his spiritual will, Mo Wuji saw Lu Ziting leading more than a thousand cultivators, at the Grand Luo Stage and above, towards G.o.ds Cultivation Peak.

No one else said a word. The power that Mo Wuji displayed was too overwhelming; no one was willing to offend Mo Wuji at such a time. If Mo Wuji had to struggle to kill G.o.ds Race’s Dao Emperor Chai Nuo, then one of them here would definitely come forward to express his dissent. Vampiric Race’s Dao Emperor Ni Kai also wouldn’t have apologised to Mo Wuji.

However, the truth was that Mo Wuji had easily slaughtered Chai Nuo. Which one of them was tired of living? Which one of them would dare to form a grudge with an expert like Mo Wuji?

After Lu Ziting left, Mo Wuji looked at Ni Kai and said, "The news I received was that the G.o.ds Race, Vampiric Race, and Sea Race surrounded and killed more than ten thousand cultivators of my Human Race. Although my Human Race doesn’t have any form of support, it is not a race that could be randomly slaughtered."

A sense of helplessness arose in Ni Kai’s heart. His Vampiric Race could not compare with the G.o.ds Race. Including him, his Vampiric Race only had two Dao Emperors. Two Dao Emperors definitely wasn’t enough to fight against Mo Wuji.

Moreover, seeing how Mo Wuji spoke in such a candid matter, Ni Kai knew that if he didn’t offer a price, his Vampiric Race was the next after the G.o.ds Race.

At this instant, Ni Kai was cursing in his heart; he was cursing the brainlessness of the G.o.ds Race. If the G.o.ds Race had enough brains, they should have concentrated all their power to kill Mo Wuji when he just returned to Cosmos Edge. As long as the G.o.ds Race’s two Dao Emperors and Immortal Emperors all came, coupled with his Vampiric Race, Sea Race, West River Religious Order and Mifei Trade Union, this Mo Wuji wouldn’t be able to survive even if he had three heads and six arms.

But now, the number of Dao Emperors and Immortal Emperors that Mo Wuji killed already numbered more than 20. Moreover, West River Religious Order and Mifei Trade Union had been disbanded, and a strong race like the Demon Race wasn’t willing to come forward. The G.o.ds Race, which only had one Dao Emperor left, was destined to fall.

"Brother Mo, my Vampiric Race is willing to compensate for this matter," Ni Kai said helplessly.

Mo Wuji said indifferently, "There’s no need for compensation. Who knows whether, after today’s compensation, you would form another coalition with the G.o.ds Race and other races to attack my Human Race? I’m afraid I don’t have time to waste words with you now. My Immortal World’s Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City had been occupied by the G.o.ds Race. I intend to reclaim it."

By this time, if he didn’t know that Mo Wuji was trying to drag him into the water, then he, Ni Kai would be a fool. He could only lament his fortune; there truly wasn’t a free lunch in the world. Because his Vampiric Race wanted the benefits, it was previously dragged into the water by the G.o.ds Race. Now, the Human Race also wants to drag him into the water.

It was impossible for him to avoid. If he still had the rights to reject Chai Nuo previously, those rights no longer existed in front of Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji might not lay hands on him now, but after Mo Wuji exterminated the G.o.ds Race from the Heaven’s Beyond, his Vampiric Race was likely to be next.

"Brother Mo, I feel angry the moment the G.o.ds Race is mentioned. If not for Chai Nuo, that despicable fox, how could I, Ni Kai, have fallen for his tricks? Since Brother Mo wants to go to Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City, then count me in, Ni Kai," Ni Kai did not hesitate to say.

Mo Wuji shook his head, "Dao Friend Ni Kai, there are more than one or two G.o.ds Race cultivators there. I intend to lead all my Human Race cultivators over."

Thereafter, Mo Wuji clasped his fists towards the various experts, "Fellow daoists, the G.o.ds Race has been behaving like tyrants in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos for too long. Today, my Human Race has decided to remove this tumour from the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Anyone that is willing to follow me, please step forward. Of course, once my Human Race wrests back our Very High Heavens Cosmos Immortal City, we will move back there. As for the land that my Human Race is occupying now, it would be divided among the races that go with me."

"Brother Mo, my Vampiric Race will naturally join you." How could Ni Kai not understand Mo Wuji’s intentions? This time, it was a matter of race. He, Ni Kai, was dreaming if he thought that he, alone, was enough.

Chapter 820: Dao Lord Of Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos

"My Sea Race has decided to respond Brother Mo’s call. My Sea Race has an army of more than tens of thousands of soldiers," A man with a musky sea smell stepped forward.

Mo Wuji sneered in his heart. If the Sea Race didn’t come forward, he definitely wouldn’t invite them. After he exterminated the G.o.ds Race, his next target wouldn’t be the Vampiric Race, but the Sea Race. Since the Sea Race knew how to act, then he would dismiss the recent incident.

Most of the experts from the G.o.ds Race had already been killed by Mo Wuji. At the same time, many of them knew that the situation had gone south; so they had already left Cosmos Edge.

Lu Ziting and his men swept the entire G.o.ds Cultivation Peak clean with an unstoppable force. When Lu Ziting returned, he happened to hear that Mo Wuji was going to reclaim the Very High Heavens Cosmos City. He immediately stepped in front of Mo Wuji agitatedly and said, "Brother Mo, I must spearhead this battle…"

Back then, the cultivators from the Immortal World were so helpless that they weren’t even able to resist. He, Lu Ziting saw countless of cultivators getting killed. They fled in all directions, but they were pursued and killed…

Today, he finally had a chance to strike back. He, Lu Ziting, thought that this day would have been far in the indefinite future, or it might never happen at all. He never expected that it would come so soon, and it was all because of Mo Wuji.

"Ziting, listen to Brother Mo," Jie Ying said solemnly. He was also like Lu Ziting, he was also raring to take his revenge. However, he was also very clear that Mo Wuji wanted to pull the other races in.

Currently, the Human Race only had Mo Wuji. If Mo Wuji was no longer here, it was always better if the Human Race had some allies.

In a place like the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, there’s no such thing as permanent enmity. Back then, the Human Race and the Demon Race each occupied half of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. It was exactly because of that, that the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor was still separated into the Human Corridor and the Demon Corridor.

But what was it like now? The Human Race had gradually declined, while the Demon Race remained in power. Various races had robbed the Human Race of their territories. But under the pressure of Mo Wuji, weren’t these races currently making the choice to help the Human Race to deal with the G.o.ds Race?

"My Demon Race’s Elder Ji Ku had always admired Brother Mo. This time, my Demon Race will definitely offer our help," The Demon Race Dao Emperor stepped forward. Ji Ku had only helped the Human Race say a single sentence, but it was a testimony to the Demon Race’s intentions to befriend Mo Wuji.

"I represent Cosmos Edge. Cosmos Edge will definitely support Wuji." Feng Huang did not hesitate to step forward. At the same time, he demonstrated that his relations.h.i.+p with Mo Wuji wasn’t shallow.

"My Allheaven Race has also been dissatisfied with the G.o.ds Race for a long time."

…

Multiple races stepped forward. Even some smaller races noticed that the G.o.ds Race was sure to decline, and they also stepped forward. Vampiric Race’s Ni Kai still felt that he had underestimated the influence of Mo Wuji; his previous claim of saying that he, alone, would help Mo Wuji might have dissatisfied Mo Wuji. Even though he eventually supplemented his words, his Vampiric Race was still on the wrong side when compared to the other races.

As he thought of this, Ni Kai said loudly, "G.o.ds Race is truly unreasonable and tyrannical. It"s natural for our races to deal with the G.o.ds Race. Back then, the G.o.ds Race killed millions of Human Race cultivators in Very High Heavens Cosmos City. It was only until recently that I found out why the G.o.ds Race chose to let off more than a hundred thousand Human Race cultivators…"

"I request Dao Friend Ni Kai to shed light on this matter," Mo Wuji immediately clasped his hand and said. In reality, he had always been confused about this matter. The G.o.ds Race slaughtered the Human Race cultivators as they would pigs; why were Immortal Empress Wen Lan and the two Immortal Emperors still able to save more than a hundred thousand cultivators? One must know that the three Immortal Emperors didn"t have a very high cultivation; none of them was even in the late Immortal Emperor Stage.

Ni Kai appeared infuriated as he said, "It"s rumoured that the G.o.ds Race discovered an ancient ruin. This ruin requires the blood sacrifice of a hundred thousand people for it to be opened…"

There was no need for Ni Kai to say any further; everyone knew what was going on. The reason why the more than a hundred thousand Human Race cultivators were able to survive wasn"t because the G.o.ds Race weren"t able to kill them, nor because the G.o.ds Race decided to show mercy. It was because the G.o.ds Race wanted to keep them for their blood sacrifice.

Even though everyone knew that Ni Kai"s frustration was pretentious, this act of the G.o.ds Race was truly very cruel.

Mo Wuji, who was already very firm on exterminating the G.o.ds Race, steeled his resolve when he heard this.

By the side, Immortal Empress Wen Lan and co.’s faces had turned green. Previously, they could tell that something was peculiar when the G.o.ds Race wanted to trap them on that meteorite. They originally wanted to tell Mo Wuji about it when they found the time. But now, they finally know the reason.

Mo Wuji looked at Feng Huang and asked, "Feng Huang, how many immortal cities does the G.o.ds Race have in Heaven"s Beyond?"

"A total of five immortal cities. Four of which used to belong to the Human Race," Feng Huang promptly replied.

When he heard this, Ni Kai hurriedly transmitted a message to Mo Wuji, "Brother Mo, my Vampiric Race had also taken an immortal city from the Human Race…"

Mo Wuji waved his hand; he did not transmit in return, but said openly, "Anything that happened before I, Mo Wuji, came to Heaven"s Beyond Cosmos can be forgotten. Now, we are all comrades. I hope that after we exterminate the G.o.ds Race, everyone can help me reclaim the cities from the G.o.ds Race."

"Even if Brother Mo doesn’t mention it, we will do it." An expert from Sky Race came forward.

Mo Wuji was very clear that the Sky Race must have earned off the Human Race before; otherwise, they wouldn’t say such words. However, the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos was such a place; it was a place where only the experts could speak. There was no meaning in being too particular about what happened in the past. In fact, that would only earn him more enemies. What he needed to do now, was to gradually revitalise the Human Race.

"Right, my Sea Race also agrees."

"My Winged Race also agrees…"

Mo Wuji’s words were very clear: I wouldn’t be calculative if you took my Human Race’s territory before. But now that I want G.o.ds Race’s territory, all those that took my Human Race’s territory must help. Otherwise, don’t blame me for collecting that debt in the future.

Seeing that everyone understood the meaning behind his words, Mo Wuji knew that it was time for him to give everyone some incentives. This plot of land in Cosmos Edge was far from enough.

Once again, he clasped his fists and said, "Dao friends from the various races, as Dao Friend Ni Kai had mentioned previously, it’s possible that the G.o.ds Race discovered an ancient ruin. According to the limited information that I know, the world above the Immortal World is called the G.o.d World. It’s rumoured that the ancestor of the G.o.ds Race was the first to discover the G.o.d World. Even though there doesn’t seem to be many relations between the G.o.d World and the G.o.ds Race now, I suspect that the ruins discovered by the G.o.ds Race might be linked to the G.o.d World.

This time, after we exterminate the G.o.ds Race from the Heaven’s Beyond, we will charge to the G.o.ds Race’s higher domain and pull the G.o.ds Race out from their roots. As for that ruins, we will open it together, and all races that partic.i.p.ate would be allowed to enter."

For a race like the G.o.ds Race, it should also have a higher domain like the Human Race. Perhaps this domain might not be called the Very High Heavens, but it should be similar. This was a domain that was linked to the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.

These words of Mo Wuji was telling everyone that the races that take part in the extermination of the G.o.ds Race would have a chance to open the ruins.

"I agree with Dao Lord Mo’s words."

"Right, Dao Lord Mo’s suggestion is extremely appropriate."

…

Many people immediately came forward to express their agreement. As for whether Mo Wuji would use the G.o.ds Race’s blood to open the ruins, no one mentioned it.

Previously, no one would have minded if the G.o.ds Race used the blood of hundred thousand Human Race cultivators to open the ruins. That was because the Human Race didn’t have a place in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos back then. There was no need to talk about a hundred thousand people, even if it was a million people, the Human Race couldn’t complain about it.

In terms of morals standards, everyone had always a.s.sessed their decisions based on utilitarian means.

Mo Wuji knew the character of these people. He said calmly, "We will not be as inhumane as the G.o.ds Race as to use a blood sacrifice to open the ruins. We can slaughter the G.o.ds Race in battle, but we will not use their blood for sacrifice. I am a Grade 9 Formation Master. After this matter ends, I will rebuild the defensive array around Cosmos Edge, and at the same time, I will use my methods to open the ruins."

The main point of these words was to declare that he, Mo Wuji, was going to be the one to rebuild the defensive array around Cosmos Edge. By saying it upfront, that would prevent people from chirping and making noise when the time comes.

No matter what, he wanted the defensive array around Cosmos Edge to be within his control.

When Feng Huang saw this scene, he knew that Mo Wuji had already obtained the absolute speaking rights here. He directly said, "Just now, there were already two dao friends that addressed Brother Mo as ‘Dao Lord’. Thus, I have a suggestion. Our Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos is vast and boundless. I, the Dao Lord of Cosmos Edge, can only manage this small city. Wuji should be the number one expert in Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Why don’t we designate a Dao Lord for the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, and have the first Dao Lord be Mo Wuji?"

"I agree." Ni Kai hurriedly said. Actually, he also had such intentions. Originally, he also wanted to say it to form closer ties with Mo Wuji. Now that Feng Huang had mentioned it, he was naturally the first to agree.

"I also agree." The Demon Race Dao Emperor added.

Seeing two Dao Emperors agree, the smaller races were even less willing to show dissent. Some larger races were unwilling, but they also didn’t want to offend Mo Wuji. Thus, they maintained their silence.

Mo Wuji waved his hand and said, "The matter of the Dao Lord can be left for another time. Now, it’s time to expel the G.o.ds Race from the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Sect Head Lu, Sect Head Jie and Senior Sister Wen Lan, immediately dispatch the Human Race cultivators. Thereafter, when we split the land in Cosmos Edge, it will be according to the number of soldiers sent by the various races."

When they heard Mo Wuji’s words, Lu Ziting and co. weren’t the only ones making a move. The remaining experts hurried to send flying messenger swords, requesting for their armies in their immortal cities to attack the G.o.ds Race.

...

G.o.ds Precipice Continent. This was a cosmos continent of the G.o.ds Race which was similar to the Very High Heavens.

This was the higher realm mentioned by Mo Wuji. It was just that Mo Wuji didn’t know that its name was G.o.ds Precipice Continent.

In terms of immortal spiritual energy and the integrity of the Laws of the Heaven and Earth, the G.o.ds Precipice Continent was no worse than the Very High Heavens. Moreover, the land was vast and boundless.

The G.o.ds Precipice Court was the hub of G.o.ds Precipice Continent, where only the most powerful figures in the G.o.ds Race could enter.

Currently, in G.o.ds Precipice Court, Wu w.a.n.g had a dark expression on his face. It was dark to the point where his black tattoos couldn’t be seen clearly. Even though he was the most powerful Dao Emperor in the G.o.ds Race, his fingers were trembling slightly. This was a clear indication of the anxiety in his heart.

He could not help but be anxious. He had just received news, under the leaders.h.i.+p of Mo Wuji, the various races of Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos went around slaughtering cultivators of the G.o.ds Race. The five immortal cities occupied by them would soon belong to someone else. The G.o.ds Race was going to be ousted out of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.

Chapter 821: Accepting The Role As A Dao Lord

"Master, our G.o.ds Race has as many experts as there are clouds…" A boy, who looked only a few years old, said proudly to Wu w.a.n.g.

Before he could finish his words, Wu w.a.n.g’s palm slapped across this boy’s face, directly causing some of this boy’s teeth to fall off.

All the G.o.ds Race experts within G.o.ds Precipice Court were so shocked that their mouths went ajar.

No one could understand why Elder Wu w.a.n.g, who adored the young lord deeply, would actually lay hands on the young lord. One must know that countless of maidservants had been killed just because they didn’t meet the expectations of the young lord.

The boy, whose mouth was now bloodied, sat there on the ground, staring at his master in disbelief. He had actually been slapped by his master, and many of his teeth had actually been shattered.

"Wu Li, you b*stard. Do you know the calamity you have brought to the G.o.ds Race? My G.o.ds Race is soon going to be exterminated, and that’s all because of your arrogant and wanton killing of geniuses back in Cosmos Edge. If you hadn’t been so arrogant as to offend Mo Wuji, why would you have been killed by that fella on the Dao Discussion Stage? Now, it has even caused my G.o.ds Race to fall to such a state? If I knew that this would happen, I would have let you die. Why did I waste my G.o.ds Race most supreme treasure on you?" Wu w.a.n.g seemed to be roaring as he pointed and scolded this young boy.

At this moment, G.o.ds Precipice Court was deafeningly silent.

Everyone knew that this young boy was the G.o.ds Race’s Young Lord Wu Li. The young lord had been killed by Mo Wuji on the Dao Discussion Stage, infuriating the G.o.ds Race and leading to the ma.s.sacre of millions of Human Race cultivators. At the same time, the G.o.ds Race used a supreme dao fruit which allowed Wu Li to be reborn from a trace of his soul.

"Elder Wu, that Mo Wuji is only one person, nor does he have three heads and six arms. As for that puny army of the Human Race, it isn"t even enough to cause a dent in our army. As long as we get rid of that Mo Wuji, the other races would definitely sway their loyalties. Those people are merely rats that follow where the wind blows. After we eliminate Mo Wuji, we will slowly settle our debt with them." A late-stage Immortal Emperor walked forward, bowed and said.

"Yes, Grand Master, this matter cannot be entirely blamed on the young lord. Our G.o.ds Race is the superior race; our young lord was honouring those people when he devoured their spiritual roots. To actually go against us, these people are clearly courting their deaths." Another man came forward. This time, it was a Grand Emperor.

Wu w.a.n.g"s anger seemed to have dissipated after that previous outburst. He remained silent for some time before he waved his hands towards those people that came forward, "If that Mo Wuji was so easy to deal with, my hands wouldn"t be so tied. To true experts, quant.i.ty would not be a threat. Even though my G.o.ds Race has many people, I am the only Dao Emperor. Do you know how long it took for Mo Wuji to kill Chai Nuo? Two moves. Chai Nuo only managed to block half of Mo Wuji"s first move, before he had his body and soul destroyed by Mo Wuji…"

The experts in G.o.ds Precipice Court all went silent. It was true that Chai Nuo could not be compared to Grand Elder Wu w.a.n.g. However, Elder Wu w.a.n.g could dream of killing Chai Nuo in two moves.

"According to the news I received, he also has a Xiantian G.o.dsword. In Very High Heavens Cosmos City, he only needed a single slash to kill tens of thousands of experts of my G.o.ds Race. There were even intermediate-stage Immortal Reverents among them. Think about it, does our G.o.ds Race have enough experts to get cut down by that G.o.dsword of his?"

Wu w.a.n.g sighed, "Actually, this was also my fault. I have been too indulgent with Wu Li."

A bearded Immortal Emperor came forward and said, "Grand Elder and Wu Li cannot be blamed for this matter. Wu Li is the hope of our G.o.ds Race; there"s nothing wrong with him devouring mutated spiritual roots in Cosmos Edge. Cosmos Edge is where experts gather; that"s also the place of Wu Li"s fortune. The only thing we didn"t expect was that a Mo Wuji actually appeared in the Human Race."

Wu w.a.n.g waved his hand, "Our mistake wasn"t because of Mo Wuji, but choosing to act against the Human Race. The Human Race was the original race that began cultivating the Dao. In the vast cosmos, there are countless of stellar talents. Even if Mo Wuji didn"t appear, there would be other experts."

"Grand Elder, what should we do now? With Mo Wuji"s power, he definitely wouldn"t stop at the cities that we have in Heaven"s Beyond." The very first late-stage Immortal Emperor said anxiously.

Wu w.a.n.g sighed once more, then he turned to look at the bloodied Wu Li. After some time, he finally said, "You are right. Even though I have yet to see that Mo Wuji, I know how powerful he is. He definitely wouldn"t stop at that. If I"m not wrong, they would definitely come to our G.o.ds Precipice Continent. Even though our G.o.ds Precipice Continent is rich in immortal spiritual energy, we aren"t as elusive as the Human Race"s Very High Heavens. The moment the Very High Heavens gets closed off from the Heaven"s Beyond Cosmos, it would be hard to find it. However, our G.o.ds Precipice Continent isn"t able to do the same…"

As he said this, Wu w.a.n.g"s gaze swept across the hall. He suddenly raised his volume, "Immediately being Wu Li away from G.o.ds Precipice Continent. At the same time, bring all the cultivation talents away from G.o.ds Precipice Continent…"

"Grand Elder…" When these Immortal Emperors heard Wu w.a.n.g"s decision, they lost the colour in their faces.

The G.o.ds Precipice Continent was the wellspring of the paG.o.da Race"s strength. Grand Elder Wu w.a.n.g"s words meant the abandonment of G.o.ds Precipice Continent. If they did that, the G.o.ds Race could only cower within a lower world. It would be hard for them to rise again.

Wu w.a.n.g extended his hand, "This matter is decided. Execute it immediately."

With that, he especially walked to Wu Li"s side, supported Wu Li up and said warmly, "Wu Li, you are the only inheritor of my G.o.ds Race"s ancient bloodline. If you are able to awaken your bloodline, you would definitely be able to lead the G.o.ds Race to greater heights. I only hope that you remember who was the one who forced our G.o.ds Race to this state and take revenge for our G.o.ds Race. It"s true that I shouldn"t have acted against the Human Race. However, my G.o.ds Race doesn"t have to fear what we have already done. It"s true that the Human Race is strong, but our G.o.ds Race ancient bloodline is much stronger."

"Yes, master. Wu Li will definitely remember master"s words. If I don"t destroy that Mo Wuji"s body, scatter his ashes and burn his soul, then I, Wu Li, am not fit to be a member of the G.o.ds Race. As long as I, Wu Li, am still alive, I will make sure that the Human Race goes extinct," Wu Li clenched his fists and swore resolutely.

"Alright. Leave now." Wu w.a.n.g was a man of action. With that, he immediately announced the exodus of the G.o.ds Race from G.o.ds Precipice Continent.

…

Very High Heavens Cosmos City. The seals and defensive array around the city had been reduced to dust. The huge words "G.o.ds Race’s Fifth Immortal City", which had been placed up by the G.o.ds Race after the Human Race had been chased out, was also torn apart.

None of the tens of thousands of G.o.ds Race cultivators in the city escaped; they were all slaughtered by the coalition of various races.

Mo Wuji stood in mid-air outside the city. The Immortal World cultivators had already started to clean up the battlefield, while the cultivators from the other races had started to withdraw from the city.

The G.o.ds Race had finally been expelled from Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. The five immortal cities that the G.o.ds Race owned in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos now belonged to the Human Race.

The Dao Emperors from the Demon Race, Vampiric Race and the Sea Race, as well as tens of Grand Emperors and late-stage Immortal Emperors stood behind Mo Wuji. Feng Huang and Ape Mo stood right next to Mo Wuji.

At this instant, all of them had complicated feelings in their hearts. They looked at Mo Wuji with eyes filled with respect and fear. Mo Wuji had already shocked them with his individual combat power, but that G.o.dsword of Mo Wuji’s had shocked them even further.

When they were invading Very High Heavens Cosmos City, Mo Wuji merely used one slash. With that one slash, Mo Wuji ripped the defensive array of the city apart. Not only that, more than ten thousand G.o.ds Race cultivators were reaped of their souls with that slash.

Even though everyone knew that Mo Wuji intentionally used that slash as a demonstration of his power, they could not help but reel in fear. The majesty and boundless killing intent within that slash still lingered in their minds.

Even a Dao Emperor could not resist Mo Wuji. If you offended this person, then your race might really get exterminated.

Mo Wuji clasped his fists and said loudly, "Even though everyone was discontented with how the G.o.ds Race was bullying all of us, I, Mo Wuji, still have to thank everyone for lending a hand to help my Immortal World wrest back our five immortal cities."

"Brother Mo, congratulations on having the five immortal cities return to their rightful owner. We still need Brother Mo to lead us to invade G.o.ds Race’s G.o.ds Precipice Continent," Vampiric Race’s Ni Kai celebrated secretly in his heart. Fortunately, he had not been bent on cooperating with G.o.ds Race’s Chai Nuo. Otherwise, he would be a person condemned in the Vampiric Race’s history.

"Wuji, you should not reject it any further. Our Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos requires a Dao Lord. Wuji, your cultivation is the strongest, so it’s natural for you to take that role." Feng Huang brought up the topic again.

"Right, Dao Lord Mo should not push this matter away. Besides Brother Mo, there’s no one else that I would accept as the Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos." Ni Kai did not hesitate to show his agreement.

"That’s right. We agree that Brother Mo should be the first Dao Lord…"

Back in Cosmos Edge, there were still a significant number of people that disagreed. But now, almost everyone jumped to support Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji was very clear that there was no need reject this matter any further. In actuality, everyone wanted this role as the Dao Lord. However, not everyone was as strong as him. If he became the Dao Lord, the status of the Human Race in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos would rise, and the Human Race would be able to obtain more benefits. This was instrumental in the rise of the Human Race.

"Fellow daoists," Mo Wuji clasped his fists, "Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos has indeed been a mess for a long period of time; the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor itself is especially fraught with casual murders. Since I have the support from everyone, then I, Mo Wuji, humbly accept the position as the first Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. After the matter with the G.o.ds Race concludes, I will organise a gathering at Cosmos Edge to discuss important matters. This First Dao Lord Estate will be constructed at the place that my Human Race used to stay in Cosmos Edge." [1]

"Dao Lord Mo, rest a.s.sured. I, Feng Huang, promise to make the First Dao Lord Estate the number one building in the entire Cosmos Edge," Feng Huang did not hesitate to say.

Most of the big powers had already nominated Mo Wuji as the Dao Lord. Even the address of the First Dao Lord Estate had been chosen. At this time, no one showed any dissent.

When Immortal Empress Wen Lan, Jie Ying, and Lu Ziting heard that Mo Wuji was going to be the first Dao Lord of Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, they were filled with incomparable emotions. This meant that even if Mo Wuji was no longer in Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, the Human Race wouldn’t be bullied.

Mo Wuji announced, "Let me arrange some matters regarding the immortal cities first, then I will bring everyone to G.o.ds Race’s G.o.ds Precipice Continent."

With that, Mo Wuji said to the Human Race Immortal Emperors, "Immortal Empress Wen Lan, Sect Head Jie, Sect Head Lu, our Immortal World doesn’t have enough people. Thus, we will temporarily seal the other four immortal cities. Wait till I install more powerful arrays and till our Immortal World has more people before we open them up for use. Now, let the cultivators of our Immortal World stay in this city in front of us. From now on, this immortal city would no longer be called Very High Heavens Cosmos City. It will be called Ping Fan Immortal City."

[1] LOL I thought he was going to split this land with the races that helped him. Sc.u.mbag much?

Chapter 822: Shuai Guo Advances

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

G.o.ds Race’s G.o.ds Precipice Continent was separated from Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos by a chasm similar to that between Half Immortal Domain and the Corner of Yong Ying. With the capabilities of the experts from Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, this chasm was simply nothing.

Tens of thousands flying treasures traversed the chasm with no obstruction whatsoever and arrived at G.o.ds Precipice Continent.

"We’re late. The G.o.ds Race has already moved away." The Demon Race Dao Emperor Ce Hong said solemnly as they arrived at G.o.ds Precipice Continent.

Mo Wuji also discovered that the G.o.ds Race had already evacuated. However, this was within his predictions. The G.o.ds Race cultivators with Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos had all been ma.s.sacred. If the G.o.ds Race in G.o.ds Precipice Continent wasn’t able to receive that news, then the G.o.ds Race wouldn’t have attained such their previous status.

It was enough for him to gain control of G.o.ds Precipice Continent. Chasing the G.o.ds Race away from the G.o.ds Precipice Continent was equivalent to oppressing them. The G.o.ds Precipice Continent was similar to the Very High Heavens; G.o.ds Race cultivators could only advance to the Dao Emperor Stage in G.o.ds Precipice Continent. Without the G.o.ds Precipice Continent, the G.o.ds Race would gradually weaken.

"Dao Lord Mo, what are your intentions?" Vampiric Race’s Dao Emperor Ni Kai asked.

If Mo Wuji suggested that they chased the G.o.ds Race to the lower worlds, they would do it. However, they would not send their full forces for such efforts.

After all, the main reason why the supported Mo Wuji as the Dao Lord was because of their own self-interest. By exterminating the G.o.ds Race from Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos and conquering G.o.ds Precipice Continent, they would be able to obtain many benefits. However, chasing to surviving G.o.ds Race cultivators to the lower worlds was a waste of time, and they weren’t willing to do that.

Just as Mo Wuji wanted to speak, he suddenly felt a stir within his Undying World. Those years ago, Shuai Guo devoured the wooden nail which Lun Pa used against him. Ever since then, Shuai Guo had entered into a deep sleep. After so many years, there was finally a stir from Shuai Guo.

Even though Mo Wuji always scolded Shuai Guo, he still cared about Shuai Guo. He hurriedly said, "Everyone, there are very few G.o.ds Race cultivators left in G.o.ds Precipice Continent. Wu w.a.n.g is the only expert left behind here. Everyone, surround and kill Wu w.a.n.g, then slaughter all the remaining G.o.ds Race cultivators left here. This territory would be distributed according to merits. When you find that rumoured secret domain of the G.o.ds Race, I will come over. As for the lower worlds, we will temporarily let them go."

Mo Wuji’s spiritual will noticed that there was a Dao Emperor left on G.o.ds Precipice Continent; he guessed that it was Wu w.a.n.g.

"Dao Lord is not following us?" Ni Kai asked hurriedly.

Mo Wuji explained, "My pet beast is soon undergoing its tribulation. I will stay here to act as its protector. By the time my pet beast pa.s.ses its tribulation, I believe that everyone should have already found the whereabouts of the G.o.ds Race’s ancient ruins."

"Alright, since that’s the case, we will first make a move," The Demon Race Dao Emperor Ce Hong hurriedly said.

These few Dao Emperors were simply elated that Mo Wuji wasn’t partic.i.p.ating. The G.o.ds Race had evacuated in a hurry; there would definitely be large amounts of resources and treasures left in G.o.ds Precipice Court. If Mo Wuji, this Dao Lord, partic.i.p.ated, then their share of the treasures would be significantly lesser.

The Dao Emperors, tens of Immortal Emperors, and tens of thousands of experts charged towards G.o.ds Precipice Court. Since the rewards were being divided, no one wanted to fall behind.

After everyone sped off, Mo Wuji directly sent Shuai Guo out of his Undying World.

"My lord, I’m about to undergo my tribulation," Shuai Guo said excitedly the moment it emerged.

Mo Wuji could also feel that there was a qualitative change in Shuai Guo. Its sharp beak became flatter, while there wasn’t any change to its three feet. Its aura was rumbling; clearly, Shuai Guo had grown significantly during these few years.

"I know. You only need to worry about your tribulation." As Mo Wuji was speaking, he brought out two extreme grade immortal veins and a pile of immortal crystals.

Green crystals were extremely useful for cultivation. However, they were sc.r.a.ps of processing, so they severely lacked natural dao energy.

Just as Mo Wuji finished installed a spirit gathering array, multiple bolts of lightning came cras.h.i.+ng down. Mo Wuji could feel Shuai Guo’s aura surging; he guessed that these few bolts of lightning wouldn’t really affect Shuai Guo.

What he didn’t expect was that, like what it did previously, Shuai Guo actually soared towards the sky. It opened its mouth and started to devour those lightning bolts.

Mo Wuji stared at Shuai Guo blankly; this kid didn’t eat enough the previous time? You’re still eating more?

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" Rumbling thunder reverberated through the air and some lightning crashed against Shuai Guo. Mo Wuji discovered in shock that Shuai Guo had only been knocked to the ground; there weren’t many injuries on its body. Not only that, lightning danced around Shuai Guo’s body. Clearly, this kid was starting to digest the lightning bolts.

Mo Wuji was incomparably excited. He didn’t expect that after a few years of hibernation, Shuai Guo was actually able to consume lightning bolts. Even when he was facing his own tribulation, he would have to face the lightning bolts with his fists before he could absorb the lightning essence. He wasn’t able to directly eat the lightning.

One wave after another came cras.h.i.+ng down. Shuai Guo dealt with the lightning easily. Mo Wuji could feel Shuai Guo’s aura getting stronger; he knew that this Lightning Calamity was no longer a threat to Shuai Guo.

"Boom!" A terrifying explosion reverberated in the distance. There were even huge disturbances in the Laws of the Heaven and Earth within the area.

Mo Wuji received a shock, but he immediately realised what happened. G.o.ds Race’s last Dao Emperor Wu w.a.n.g must have self-exploded.

No matter how strong Wu w.a.n.g was, he wouldn’t be able to withstand the attacks of four Dao Emperors. Mo Wuji believed that if he was there, Wu w.a.n.g definitely wouldn’t be able to self-explode. However, to Mo Wuji, whether Wu w.a.n.g self-exploded was not as important as Shuai Guo’s tribulation.

"Wuji, Wu w.a.n.g has self-exploded. The G.o.ds Race’s ruin has also been found. It’s at G.o.ds Precipice Court. We are waiting for you here." Ape Mo transmitted a message over.

As for how many people Wu w.a.n.g dragged down with him during his self-explosion, Ape Mo didn’t mention it. Mo Wuji also didn’t care about it; after all, he was the only one from the Human Race here. As for Ape Mo, he was a Dao Emperor expert; Wu w.a.n.g’s self-explosion would only cause Ape Mo some minor injuries at the very most.

"My lord." Shuai Guo’s emotional voice sounded.

Mo Wuji could sense that Shuai Guo’s surging aura had finally stabilised. Scanning Shuai Guo with his spiritual will, Mo Wuji could immediately tell that Shuai Guo was definitely top-cla.s.s among Grade 7 immortal demonic beasts.

Shuai Guo’s aura contained the vigour and self-confidence of an ancient bloodline; Mo Wuji could even see some indiscernible dao aura revolving around Shuai Guo. Additionally, Shuai Guo’s feathers weren’t spa.r.s.e and thin like before. Now, Shuai Guo had a healthy, sleek, black coat of feathers.

"Not bad. You’re able to pa.s.s your Grade 7 immortal demonic beast Lightning Calamity so easily. You were even able to consume the lightning bolts." Mo Wuji was very satisfied with Shuai Guo’s performance.

"My lord, that puny lightning was nothing more than an itch. In the future, all sorts of Lightning Calamity are nothing to me." When Shuai Guo heard Mo Wuji praise it, its tail contentedly raised and pointed towards the sky.

Mo Wuji sneered, "You’re so impressive, but you’re still a mosquito."

Mo Wuji understood Shuai Guo, this kid. If you gave him an inch, he would take a mile.

When Shuai Guo heard these words, its head instantly drooped, "My lord, I have already obtained a portion of my legacy. How can ordinary mosquitoes compare to me?"

"Stop grumbling. Exactly what was that wooden nail that you devoured?" Mo Wuji really wanted to know the origins of that wooden nail that the G.o.ds Race Dao Emperor used on him. That nail was filled with death energy; it was simply too terrifying. If not for Shuai Guo saving him, he might have actually died because of that nail.

Hearing Mo Wuji’s question, Shuai Guo instantly became enlivened, ‘My lord, that wooden nail is called G.o.dly Yin Wooden Stake. It’s refined from the G.o.dly Yin Wood, and it contains a noxious Yin energy. I believe that I will soon be able to gain enlightenment on the Yin-type sacred art from within it. By that time, I will be able to wreak havoc throughout the world, and sweep across…"

Sensing Mo Wuji’s expression turning dark, Shuai Guo knew tactfully s.h.i.+t its beak.

"Let’s go. Follow me and take a look at the G.o.ds Race’s G.o.ds Precipice Court." Mo Wuji had never heard of the G.o.dly Yin Wooden Stake, and he knew that nothing would come out of asking Shuai Guo any further. The reason why Shuai Guo even knew about was because it consumed it, and not because it was experienced and knowledgeable.

…

G.o.ds Precipice Court looked far more majestic than Cosmos Edge. From a distance, it looked like a floating continent surrounded by beautiful rainbow-coloured clouds.

Mo Wuji didn’t need to enter G.o.ds Precipice Court to know that most of the immortal veins had already been extracted by the fellas that came before him.

He did not mind it though. He had already obtained plenty of immortal veins back in Oblique s.p.a.ce Sea Island.

A white stone path which was approximately 30 meters wide sloped upwards; it seemed to be leading to the peak of the Cosmos. Mo Wuji brought Shuai Guo and sped through this path. The first thing he saw was a huge hall. The hall was not destroyed; Mo Wuji could guess that this was the where the top bra.s.s of the G.o.ds Race gathered.

Traversing the array, he was immediately welcomed by a shattered array.

"Dao Lord Mo, this is your immortal pet?" Just as Mo Wuji arrived, Demon Race’s Ce Hong exclaimed in surprise.

Mo Wuji laughed and said, "Yes. To think about it, this fella is considered part of your Demon Race."

A Grand Emperor from the Demon Race remarked, "Dao Lord Mo, this immortal pet of yours is impressive. Even within the Demon Race, its bloodline is extremely rare."

"Cheh, what is the Demon Race? My bloodline is far more dignified than some Demon Race," Shuai Guo did not hesitate to rebut.

"Shuai Guo, don’t talk nonsense." Mo Wuji knew that strictly speaking, Shuai Guo was indeed part of the Demon Race. However, Shuai Guo’s words were not wrong either. Compared to the typical Demon Race, the Bloodthirsty Black Mosquito was truly much more terrifying.

Ce Hong’s gaze reluctantly s.h.i.+fted away from Shuai Guo. If Shuai Guo wasn’t Mo Wuji’s pet, he would have definitely s.n.a.t.c.hed it away. He could tell that Shuai Guo’s bloodline was as Shuai Guo, itself, had said. It was extremely dignified. If he could obtain Shuai Guo, wouldn’t that be a fortune for him?

Unfortunately, Shuai Guo was Mo Wuji’s pet. If there was only one person in Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos that he, Ce Hong, didn’t dare to offend, it would be Dao Lord Mo.

"Dao Lord Mo, this should be the ruins that the G.o.ds Race wanted to use the blood sacrifice to open." Ni Kai pointed towards a runic diagram in front of them.

Mo Wuji’s spiritual will had already landed on the runes. These runes were extremely complicated and majestic; each of them was connected to the other. Not only were the runes complex, there seemed to be an extremely enigmatic diagram hidden within the ruins.

Within a few instants, Mo Wuji suddenly felt dizzy. His heart was filled with shock. He was sure that although his cultivation was the lowest here, no one else could compare with his sea of consciousness and spiritual will. If even he was befuddled by these runes, it could be seen how terrifying these things were.

"Dao Lord Mo, these array runes would cause your spiritual will to be muddled upon observation." When the Sea Race Dao Emperor saw that Mo Wuji was also affected, he secretly gasped.

Mo Wuji said solemnly, "These aren’t array runes."

Chapter 823: Thousand Talismans Mountain And Phecda Clay

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

"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 G.o.ds 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 G.o.ds Race is an extremely mysterious race. I once heard that there used to be an extremely powerful curse-type sacred art in the G.o.ds 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 G.o.ds 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 G.o.ds Race had a possible pa.s.sage 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 pa.s.sage. Even if he did, he wouldn’t open it now. The G.o.ds 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 pa.s.sage 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 pa.s.sage."

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 G.o.ds 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 G.o.ds 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 G.o.ds 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 pa.s.sage to a higher world. If our cultivation is higher, we could come back and take a look," Ape Mo said seriously.

"That’s right. I still have some unfinished business here. Also, after I finish them, I want to find a way to make a trip back to the Immortal World…"

As he said this, Mo Wuji suddenly thought of something, "Ape Mo, let me ask you a question. If I want to go to a specific lower world, are there any special methods?"

As his cultivation continued to rise, Mo Wuji’s yearning to make a trip back to Earth grew stronger. Perhaps Wen Xiaoqi might no longer be alive, but he still wanted to see her descendants.

Now that he had experienced two lives, he was especially cognizant of the efforts and difficulties that Wen Xiaoqi had gone through for him. Even if he could not compensate her directly and could only meet with her descendants, Mo Wuji’s heavy heart would be able to lighten considerably.

Besides the matter with Wen Xiaoqi, he also wanted to find out exactly why that woman plotted against him.

"Wuji, you want to go to a lower world?" Ape Mo asked in confusion.

Mo Wuji sighed and said, "Yes, I came here because of a friend. However, I’m sure that my friend is not here. Thus, after I settle the matter regarding the Immortal World, I will enter secluded cultivation. When my abilities reach a certain level, I will try to open that ruin. If I can’t, then I will make a trip to the Cosmos Wall."

Every few years, copious amounts of cultivation resources and materials would come falling from the Cosmos Wall. Mo Wuji believed that if he continued to scale the Cosmos Wall, it was highly possible that there was a higher world. With his current abilities, he wasn’t able to do that. But perhaps he could once he becomes a Great Circle Immortal Emperor?

As for Cen Shuyin and Lin Gu, Mo Wuji guessed that they weren’t in Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. If they were in Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos or Cosmos Edge, they were definitely have heard his name.

Ape Mo ruminated for a long time before he finally said, "It’s not that there aren’t methods. It’s just that it’s very hard. The first way is to use the Reincarnation Dao Fruit. You will send a strand of your spiritual will into it and it will be reincarnated into the lower world. Usually, its lifespan is 30 years. The second way is to use a peak grade World Rending Talisman. However, there are some issues regarding this method: 1. Peak grade World Rending Talismans are hard to get; 2. After using this talisman to get to the lower world, you will still face an immense pressure from the Laws of the Heaven and Earth. Without a treasure to resist the Laws of the Heaven and Earth, even Dao Emperors would be crushed to smithereens.

Of course, I even heard of a third method. I heard that once a person’s cultivation reaches the extreme, it becomes possible to dismiss the restrains of the Laws of the Heaven and Earth. I’m not too clear about what this ‘extreme’ level is, but I’m sure that it’s not the Dao Emperor Stage."

"Then where can I get that World Rending Talisman?" Mo Wuji hurriedly asked.

He cultivated the Immortal Mortal Technique, so he didn’t need to fear the restrains of the Laws over lower worlds. This is because he was considered a mortal.

"Has Wuji heard of the Thousand Talismans Mountain?" Ape Mo asked.

Mo Wuji shook his head, "I’ve not."

Ape Mo explained, "The Thousand Talismans Mountain is a sect formed by the descendants of the Talisman Race. The Talisman Race are innately born with the talent to create talismans and all peak grade talismans come from the Talisman Race. However, due to some unknown reason, the Talisman Race offended some supreme expert. That expert exterminated the Talisman Race. The survivors of the Talisman Race fled to Thousand Talismans Mountain, and that was where they finally resided. Oblique s.p.a.ce Sea Island frequently trades with Thousand Talismans Mountain and purchases peak grade talismans from them."

"Where is the Thousand Talismans Mountain?" Mo Wuji asked anxiously.

Ape Mo answered, "I know where the Thousand Talismans Mountain is. It’s just that the Thousand Talismans Mountain probably doesn’t have those peak grade World Rending Talismans anymore. During the extermination of the Talisman Race, they lost most of their talisman legacies. But if Wuji is still keen, I can bring you over."

Mo Wuji went silent momentarily. Then he said, "Let’s return to Cosmos Edge for now. I will enter seclusion for three months to forge immortal puppets. After I’m done forging my immortal puppets and resolving the matters in Cosmos Edge, I will go to the Thousand Talismans Mountain alone."

Cosmos Edge had just stabilised. With Ape Mo staying behind, there was someone to look after the Human Race.

"My lord, you’re using the Phecda Clay to revive Da Huang?" Shuai Guo hurriedly asked.

"The Phecda Clay to revive Da Huang?" Mo Wuji looked at Shuai Guo in doubt. He knew that when Shuai Guo advanced to Grade 7, it received many new legacies. But what was this Phecda Clay?

When Shuai Guo saw that it knew something that its master didn’t know about, it was instantly elated, "My lord, the Phecda Clay is a Xiantian material. Not only is it the best material used for recovering one’s fleshly body, it could also be used forge peak grade immortal puppets. If an immortal puppet is forged using this material, it will be able to independently absorb spiritual energy and cultivate. It would also possess its own intelligence."

"Shuai Guo, you’re saying that an immortal puppet forged using this Phecda Clay will be able to absorb spiritual energy on its own? It doesn’t need to use any sort of energy crystal to attack?" Mo Wuji asked agitatedly.

Mo Wuji’s feelings for Da Huang were very deep. It was exactly because of this, that he decided to learn how to forge immortal puppets. With his current methods, he could easily forge Immortal Reverent-level immortal puppets. However, he still didn’t begin reforging Da Huang. This was because he wanted Da Huang to possess the same intelligence as it had before.

Hearing Shuai Guo’s words, not only would the Phecda Clay be able to recover Da Huang’s intelligence, Da Huang would even be able to cultivate. He must obtain this Phecda Clay. There was no other reason, it was just for Da Huang.

"Right, my lord. This is what I learned from my legacy." Shuai Guo said resolutely.

"Where can I get the Phecda Clay?" Mo Wuji’s brows knitted in contemplation. He was wondering if he could release this as a mission. But even he hadn’t heard of such a thing, would others know about it?"

"My lord, don’t you already have the Phecda Clay?" Hearing Mo Wuji’s words, it was Shuai Guo’s turn to be confused.

"I have the Phecda Clay?" Mo Wuji looked at Shuai Guo with an expression of confusion. According to Shuai Guo’s words, the Phecda Clay was a Xiantian material, it was a treasure equivalent to the Clay of Life [1], it was a treasure on the same level as the primal crystals. How could he have it?

He did have the Five Elemental Soil, but this thing was heavens apart from the Phecda Clay described by Shuai Guo.

"My lord, that green stone inside is the Phecda Clay," Shuai Guo said to Mo Wuji speechlessly. In reality, since Ape Mo was here, Shuai Guo didn’t want to mention the Undying World and the Breath of Hongmeng which was next to the green stone.

"Which green stone?" Mo Wuji asked. However, he didn’t wait for Shuai Guo to answer before he came to a realisation. He immediately retrieved a piece of green stone in his Undying World and asked, "Shuai Guo, you mean that this is the Phecda Clay?"

"That’s right, this is the Phecda Clay." Shuai Guo suddenly felt that its lord was not overly abnormal; there were still some things its lord didn’t know about.

"I understand," Mo Wuji muttered.

He did understand. If Shuai Guo’s words were right, this might really be the Xiantian treasure, Phecda Clay. Previously, he thought that the Phecda Clay would look like soil. How could he have thought that this green stone was the Phecda Clay?

He obtained this green stone from the immortal sealing array. Back then, the cunning fox, Yu Minjiang, tried to scheme against him. Yu Minjiang got him to retrieve this green stone from a dried lake. In reality, this rock was positioned under a sharp and piercing fish skeleton. If he didn’t have his spiritual eye, he would really have fallen for that scheme.

Thereafter, he got Da Huang to retrieve this green stone. He didn’t expect that Yu Minjiang, that old fox, would still try to trick him. Fortunately, he grabbed the right opportunity. He didn’t dare waste any words with that old fox. Instead, he fled by himself.

There was no wonder why Yu Minjiang wanted this green stone. If Yu Minjiang was only left with his primordial spirit, and if this green stone was really the Phecda Clay, it wasn’t hard to discern the reason why Yu Minjiang wanted the Phecda Clay.

Mo Wuji sighed emotionally. Back then, Da Huang was the one who retrieved this green stone. Now, he was going to use this green stone to reforge a body for Da Huang. Clearly, fate comes around.

"Not bad, Shuai Guo. You’ve done well." Mo Wuji patted Shuai Guo’s head.

…

When Mo Wuji returned back to Cosmos Edge, he immediately installed a defensive array around Mifei Trade Union and he started his seclusion.

Cosmos Edge’s defensive array was broken. However, because Mo Wuji didn’t say anything, no one mentioned the reinstallation of the arrays. After all, Mo Wuji was the Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos and Cosmos Edge was the hub of Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Thus, the reinstallation of the arrays had to go through Mo Wuji.

Back at that almost dried-up immortal essence pond, Mo Wuji planted another two immortal veins.

Thereafter, he carefully retrieved a broken piece of artificial equipment spirit; this was Da Huang’s artificial equipment spirit. Back when he was surrounded by three Grand Emperors and a Quasi-Emperor, Da Huang sacrificed its life for him. The only thing he managed to retain was this equipment spirit.

Placing this artificial equipment spirit by the side, Mo Wuji then took out the green stone.

His spiritual will wasn’t even able to penetrate into this green stone. Now, Mo Wuji was worried; he didn’t know whether his Scholar’s Heart was enough to melt this green stone.

Mo Wuji flashed out his Scholar’s Heart, then he nervously placed the green stone within the fire.

The Scholar’s Heart was a Grade 9 immortal flame. If the Scholar’s Heart wasn’t able to melt this piece of green stone, then Mo Wuji really wouldn’t have any other methods. He could only wait till his cultivation gets higher then he would make another attempt to save Da Huang.

After half an incense’s time, Mo Wuji sighed. His guess was right: his Scholar’s Heart was unable to melt this green stone. Even after half an incense of time, there was no change to this piece of green stone.

The Phecda Clay was a Xiantian treasure. Perhaps only Xiantian treasures could cut open this green stone…

The moment Mo Wuji thought about Xiantian treasures, he immediately thought about his Kun Wu Sword.

Even though he had only refined the first layer of seals of Kun Wu Sword, the Kun Wu Sword was still a Xiantian Treasure. The Kun Wu Sword might actually be able to cut this green stone.

However, Mo Wuji soon shook his head. It would be useless even if the Kun Wu Sword was enough to cut this green stone. Even if he cut this green stone into halves, it wouldn’t be able to bring Da Huang back.

Regardless of its usefulness, Mo Wuji still decided to try.

Mo Wuji wielded the Kun Wu Sword. It immediately conjured a sword beam with sliced towards that green stone.

"Ka!" A light and crisp sound resounded. This green stone was cut in half.

So easy. Mo Wuji stared at one of the halves of the green stone. Immediately, he noticed that something was amiss. After being sliced, this green stone ad become especially soft; it felt like real clay.

Mo Wuji hurriedly formed some hand seals. As the hand seals landed on the green stone, it continuously changed.

A powerful life energy and a pure breath came over. Mo Wuji’s heart was instantly shaking with excitement. At this moment, Mo Wuji was sure that this green stone was the Phecda Clay.

This time, he didn’t even need to use the Scholar’s Heart. He only needed to use his spiritual will to control this immortal puppet.

Originally, Mo Wuji wanted to engrave array runes inside. But after controlling the Phecda Clay, he changed his mind. What kind of material was this? He was using the Phecda Clay. This was a Xiantian material. If he used his method of engraving array runes, he would simply be forging an immortal puppet.

However, he wanted Da Huang to be like Shuao Guo; he wanted Da Huang to have its own spirit to cultivate and advance on its own.

As Mo Wuji thought of this, a new insight appeared in his mind. This insight was similar to when he first formed the Undying World; it seemed to contain a Grand Dao Energy of Creation.

The Phecda Clay continued to morph. Slowly, it reverted back to Da Huang’s original appearance. By this time, that damaged artificial equipment spirit was also inserted into the Phecda Clay.

The only difference was that Da Huang’s inner body wasn’t filled with seals and arrays. Instead, meridians and spirit channels appeared, then came his bones and his organs…

At the beginning, Mo Wuji used his willpower to control this. Towards the end, Mo Wuji depended entirely on his dao will to synthesise Da Huang.

Perhaps in this vast universe, this was the only living creature that possessed 108 spirit channels and 108 meridians.

After some unknown period of time, Mo Wuji suddenly opened his eyes. He didn’t even cultivate; he had only used his Phecda Clay to sculpt Da Huang. However, his cultivation rose to the pinnacle of the early Immortal Emperor Stage.

His aura seemed to become more ordinary, it seemed as though he was one with the s.p.a.ce around him.

Indeed, every road was a path within the Grand Dao. He only focused on rebuilding Da Huang, but during this short period of time, his cultivation rose faster than if he cultivated for eight to ten years.

Da Huang had already reverted back to its original appearance. There was even a layer of skin on Da Huang. The only difference was that Da Huang still didn’t seem to have life.

Mo Wuji slowly lifted his hand and placed his finger on Da Huang’s forehead. Life force and dao intent were being channelled into Da Huang’s body. As long as he knew it, it would be transmitted into Da Huang.

Following Mo Wuji’s transmission of his life force and dao intent, the Phecda Clay started to have obvious changes. The spirit channels and meridians within Da Huang’s body suddenly started to have life. Blood flowed from Da Huang’s forehead and soon it filled the entire of Da Huang’s body.

After two full hours, Mo Wuji finally retracted his finger. His face was slightly pale.

"My lord, wasn’t my body smashed to smithereens by those fellas? Why am I still alive?" When Da Huang saw Mo Wuji, he immediately cried out in pleasant surprise.

Mo Wuji’s eyes were slightly moist. From this moment on, Da Huang was no longer an immortal puppet.

"My lord, you saved me…" Da Huang soon came to an understanding He could feel the artificial equipment spirit within his body. That artificial equipment spirit was slowly fusing with the Phecda Clay. Eventually, that artificial equipment spirit would disappear without a trace.

"Da Huang, you’ve finally returned," Mo Wuji said emptionally.

Da Huang suddenly closed his eyes, and at the very next instant, he reopened them. He looked at Mo Wuji in disbelief as he said, "My lord, you used the Phecda Clay to reforge my body? It’s the Phecda Clay…"

"That’s right, how do ypu feel?" Mo Wuji was elated. Now that Da Huang had returned, the state of his heart had risen by a level.

"This is such a waste, it’s truly a waste…" Da Huang muttered to himself. He previous owner couldn’t even obtain Phecda Clay the size of a dragon’s eye. Now, his entire body was formed from Phecda Clay.

Mo Wuji chuckled and patted Da Huang’s shoulder, "To me, infinite amounts of Phecda Clay couldn’t compare to your return. Come, let’s go."

"Yes, my lord." Da Huang’s heart was boiling with emotions. His body had just been formed and he was still at the period of adjustment. All this, however, wasn’t important. The important thing was that his lord had used an entire piece of Phecda Clay to sculpt his body. He, Da Huang, was only an immortal puppet, His lord didn’t hesitate to give a puppet like him a new life.

"Da Huang, welcome back." The moment they emerged, Shuai Guo came running over with its b.u.t.t high. It was very clear that the previous Da Huang didn’t count for anything much, but the Da Huang formed using Phecda Clay was no lower than a mosquito like it.

"Thanks Shuai Guo." Da Huang’s heart was still filled with emotions.

Shuai Guo sighed, "Da Huang, you’re much more polite than before. But now, your abilties are much weaker. Hoho, you shoudl only be in the Immortal Reverent Stage."

"I will cultivate. I will soon become stronger than before and protect the lord," Da Huang didn’t hesitate to say.

He wasn’t a half bit disappointed. His previous power level wouldn’t have increased no matter what he did. Now that his lord had sculpted a new body for him, he could cultivate and grow stronger.

[1] So it’s a clay that can be used to sculpt living things. If I had it, I would rather sculpt Wonder Woman.

Chapter 825: Laws of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

"Dao Lord Mo, congratulations on advancing once again. The Cosmos Edge’s defensive array had been broken for a few months now, should we reinstall a new one soon?" The instance Mo Wuji came out of seclusion, the few Dao Emperors landed in front of him together.

The truth was that they had been waiting for Mo Wuji to come out of seclusion for the brand new division of benefits in the Cosmos Edge as well as the need for a new defensive array to be installed. Their array dao might not be comparable to Mo Wuji’s but it would be impossible for Mo Wuji to think that he could control the entire defensive array of the Cosmos Edge.

"Naturally," Mo Wuji smiled faintly before saying to the incoming Feng Huang, "Dao Lord Feng…"

Feng Huang hurried to say, "Dao Lord Mo, in order to avoid any confusion or clash between us, I am now that castellan of the Cosmos Edge."

Mo Wuji didn’t mind as he said, "Castellan Feng, the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos is about to draw up a standardise rule so help me inform every existing power, race… to gather for a conference at the Heaven’s Beyond Dao Lord Residence two hours later."

"Yes," Feng Huang hurried to respond before adding another sentence, "Dao Lord Mo, what should we do to those who are unwilling to attend the conference?"

Mo Wuji chuckled, "Then it would be up to them and we shall not force it upon them."

Hearing Mo Wuji’s words, Feng Huang wasn’t the only shocked one as even the few Dao Emperors felt slightly suspicious. According to their understanding of Mo Wuji, he wasn’t a Dao Lord that was easy to speak or negotiate with. Nothing might happen to you if you didn’t offend Mo Wuji but once you offend this Dao Lord Mo, the G.o.ds Race would be a good example of what would come your way.

Now that Mo Wuji had organised a conference as the new Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond, not attending this conference would mean not respecting Mo Wuji as the new Dao Lord.

…

Heaven’s Beyond Dao Lord Residence was a place Feng Huang rebuilt back up in the Cosmos Edge.

One could say that in the entire Cosmos Edge, there wasn’t any architecture more magnificently grand than this Dao Lord Residence. However, the Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond was the number one existence of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos so it was only natural for his Dao Lord Residence to be the grandest and magnificent.

Two hours later, about a thousand of people gathered within the splendid and s.p.a.cious Dao Lord Residence’s hall.

Almost 100% of the sect heads of the remaining powers who chose to remain in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos were all here in the hall. Besides the few races and forces who casually sent a few random personnel here, most of the people here were power holders for each of their races and forces.

After all, attending this conference wouldn’t take up much time so n.o.body would be willing to offend the number one Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos for a small matter like this. Despite the fact that this was only a t.i.tular address, this person had just brought people to exterminate the entire presence of the G.o.ds Race in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.

"Dao Lord Mo, every race and force are all here," Even Feng Huang didn’t expect that there would be such attendance.

Mo Wuji nodded and in fact, this was within his expectations. A meeting like this involved the future direction in which the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos would head towards as well as the new plan to divide the benefits within the Cosmos Edge. As long as they weren’t foolish, they would be here. Initially, Mo Wuji was intending to come up with a foreign race regulation to deal with races which chose not to attend this conference. However, since everyone was present today, it seemed like there was no need for him to add in this rule.

Once everyone had settled down and received the immortal tea which Feng Huang prepared, Mo Wuji clasped his fists before saying, "Indebted to the high regard held by many Dao Friends here in the Heaven’s Beyond, I shall be the first Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Since I am the Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, I would naturally have to make a contribution to the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Now, I would like to appoint the personnel to form up the Heaven’s Beyond Dao Lord Const.i.tution."

Everyone in the hall fell silent because Mo Wuji only became the Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos because his strength was number one in the entire Heaven’s Beyond. Didn’t everyone witness how a mighty race like the G.o.ds Race got exterminated just because they offended Dao Lord Mo?

In the Dao Lord Const.i.tution, Mo Wuji alone would never be enough. Now that Dao Lord Mo was about to nominate the Dao Lord Const.i.tution, it would mean that whoever was chosen would be standing on a much higher status than everyone else in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.

Mo Wuji knew what everyone was thinking about. Even though he was supposed to nominate the members, decisions had already been made for some of the more important positions.

Mo Wuji scan across the hall using his eyes before saying, "Other than myself, the Dao Lord, the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos Dao Lord Const.i.tution would have five designated cosmos defenders. They would be Demon Race’s Ce Hong, Blood Race’s Ni Kai, Sea Race’s Jiao Luan, Sky’s Race Yuan Peiluo and Devil Race’s Fang Hushen respectively.

The hall was still silent and evidently, n.o.body was too surprised at Mo Wuji’s arrangement. The five cosmos defenders were basically all Dao Emperors and were all present today too.

Once Mo Wuji’s voice was heard, the five nominated defenders stood up and clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji before sitting back down. The following names would the eight law enforcers of the Dao Lord Const.i.tution. They are Spiritual Race’s Hai Yidou, Human Race’s Jie Ying…"

In a place like this, Mo Wuji would not be too particular about the races that were being chosen. If the Human Race was really going to establish a powerful foothold in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, they would first need a foothold within the Dao Lord’s Const.i.tution. During the nomination this time around, three of the Human Race Immortal Emperors were appointed. Even Ape Mo was appointed as an honorary elder.

Once he finished appointing the more important positions, Mo Wuji continued, "Since we have an integrated administration in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, I would wish to draw up a series of regulations. The Dao Discussion Stage could still be established again but no one else should intervene during a dao discussion on the stage. Anyone who intervened shall be killed without mercy. Concurrently, the dao discussion shall end the moment someone admits defeat on stage and similarly, anyone who violates this rule shall also be killed immediately…

The Heaven’s Beyond Corridor shall stop having that war among armies and once the Cosmos Wall is open, anyone would be qualified to enter to fight for the treasures and would also be qualified to return with their treasures to the Cosmos Edge or Heaven’s Beyond Corridor…"

If there were still some opinions regarding Mo Wuji’s first rule, there were simply too many objections to the second rule. The very existence of the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor was to fish for a large number of cultivation resources. A place like the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor was simply not suitable for cultivation and 90% of the cultivators there was existence like cannon fodders. Mo Wuji’s suggestion would basically put those cultivators at the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor on the same equal footing as the other cultivators.

"Dao Lord Mo, wouldn’t this cause a greater mess?" Sky Race’s Dao Emperor Yuan Peiluo stood up to ask.

Mo Wuji replied faintly, "If even this could cause a mess, there would no longer be a point in the existence of our Dao Lord Const.i.tution as well as the defenders."

Yuan Peiluo heard Mo Wuji’s words and was instantly shocked, he hurried to clasp his fist before sitting back down. The truth was that even though his Sky Race did send some cultivators to partake in the move to exterminate the G.o.ds Race, he didn’t involve himself. The only reason Mo Wuji would choose him to be a defender was because he was a Dao Emperor. If he dared to continue speaking without thinking, he might be the first defender to rip off his t.i.tle so quickly.

"The Cosmos Edge shall become a fair trading place and would not allow for force buying or selling as well as bullying or humiliating of others. The moment such cases appeared, kill without pardon. The various big city square, exchange market, a.s.sociations… shall go according to the scale of the transaction to collect the fees. Concurrently, the Cosmos Edge shall establish transfer arrays for all races so that anyone would be able to travel from the Cosmos Edge to the immortal cities of each race or the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor easily. The precondition would be that every transfer would require the payment of a standard fee. All the fees collected would be used to pay for the expenses of the Dao Lord Const.i.tution…"

Mo Wuji listed down regulations after regulations and n.o.body dared to object. The list that Mo Wuji came up with had basically surpa.s.sed the framework of regulations and could even be considered as laws.

However, Mo Wuji was now the number one expert of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos and the Dao Lord coupled with the fact that the regulations he implemented didn’t harm any race specifically. Every race would have to pay the equal amount of fees so n.o.body would actually stand out to object.

Once he went through the framework of regulations which he came up with, Mo Wuji continued, "These regulations shall be addressed as the laws of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos in the future. For now, let’s discuss the installation of the Cosmos Edge’s defensive array."

Hearing that Mo Wuji was going to talk about the defensive array, the power holders of each race or force suddenly had their spirits lifted up.

The defensive array of the Cosmos Edge was the point which most of them were concerned about because the Cosmos Edge was the main gathering of resources in the entire Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. This was also the place where they would visit the most frequently in the future which was why this defensive array must not be controlled by Mo Wuji alone.

Mo Wuji said calmly, " I am the Dao Lord so I shall be the one taking charge of the installation of the defensive array of the Cosmos Edge."

"Dao Lord Mo, I feel that the defensive array should be installed by a Grade 9 immortal array master and we can lend our support from the side," Hearing Mo Wuji’s words, a Grand Emperor, who didn’t know Mo Wuji personally, stood up.

"Yes, the defensive array would naturally need a Grade 9 immortal array master to install. I believe that Master Song Chengw.a.n.g can lead the way while we help out together…" Yuan Peiluo was the second to step out as Song Chengw.a.n.g was the array master of his Sky Race.

Mo Wuji questioned with a calm tone, "Song Chengw.a.n.g was the one who installed the previous defensive array of the Cosmos Edge?"

"Yes indeed, the previous defensive array of the Cosmos Edge was indeed installed by Senior Song Chengw.a.n.g," The Grand Emperor, who spoke first, added in.

Mo Wuji’s tone turned cold as he slammed the table and shouted, "Which race are you from? Why do you want to harm the people of my Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos?"

This Grand Emperor was stunned by Mo Wuji’s abrupt rage as he hurried to clasp his fists and said, "Dao Lord Mo, I am from the Barbarian Race and I have never thought of harming the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. I am sincere in wanting to establish a more stable defensive array of the Cosmos Edge."

Without waiting for Mo Wuji to speak, Dao Emperor Ni Kai of the Blood Race sneered, "Did you know that the defensive array installed by Song Chengw.a.n.g was torn apart by a single finger of Dao Lord Mo during his secluded cultivation? Dao Lord Mo’s reprimand was actually not accusing you. If we were to let Song Chengw.a.n.g install the same type of defensive array again, wouldn’t we be vulnerable to the other people’s future invasion of the Cosmos Edge?"

"Ah…" This Barbarian Race Grand Emperor was shocked because even though he knew that the defensive array of the Cosmos Edge was torn apart, he certainly didn’t know that it was done by a finger of Mo Wuji. A defensive array which could be torn apart by a single finger must be really trashy which explained the Dao Lord’s fury.

Mo Wuji said faintly, "Dao Friend Ni Kai is right because the original defensive array of the Cosmos Edge was simply too trashy to be destroyed accidentally during my secluded cultivation. Naturally, this was also a good thing because otherwise, we would still be living under a trashy defensive array. Dao Friend Yuan Peiluo’s words are also logical because to install the defensive array of this place, a Grade 9 immortal array master would naturally be needed. And I, Mo Wuji, am coincidentally a Grade 9 immortal array master."

Chapter 826: Heading Towards The Thousand Talismans Mountain

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

Out of the Dao Emperors here, the Sky Race Dao Emperor Yuan Peiluo had the least understanding of Mo Wuji. Everyone else knew that Mo Wuji was a Grade 9 immortal array master but he didn’t know that.

Now that Mo Wuji had mentioned he was a Grade 9 immortal array master, Yuan Peiluo had nothing to say to rebut Mo Wuji’s claim to take charge of the installation of the transfer array.

"I support the decision to let Dao Lord Mo take charge of installing the defensive array," Demon Race’s Ce Hong was astute, crafty and well experienced. One look at this situation, he knew that Dao Lord Mo was determined to be the one taking charge of the installation which was why he didn’t hesitate as he stepped out to support Mo Wuji.

After Ce Hong, the other Dao Emperors, as well as Immortal Emperors from each race, displayed their support for Mo Wuji.

Despite knowing that the outcome wouldn’t change, Mo Wuji was still very pleased as he stood up to say, "This defensive array which I am about to install for the Cosmos Edge would have eight main controlling flags. Because the installment of the defensive array requires a large amount of high grade immortal materials, I shall get to control one of the main controlling flags while the other seven main controlling flags shall be given to whoever contributes the most. After allocating this seven personnel, I would go according to the races who contributed the most to the construction of the defensive array to decide the territory given."

The truth was that to install a defensive array for the Cosmos Edge was just like installing one for an immortal city. It didn’t require many resources but since Mo Wuji was going to do it himself, he wouldn’t want to install an ordinary one. Moreover, he needed a large number of resources because not only did he need it for the Cosmos Edge’s defensive array, he would also need to take care of the Ping Fan Immortal City’s defensive array. Besides all these, he would want to revamp the Ping Fan Immortal School’s defensive array once he returned to the Immortal World.

Immediately after Mo Wuji’s words were heard, many races were all suddenly willing to contribute resources magnanimously.

"Now let me address my final issue," Mo Wuji indicated for everyone to quieten down, "Because I am the first Dao Lord of the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, after I leave the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos, there would be a need for a successor for the Dao Lord position. Today, I shall refine a Dao Lord Token and the following Dao Lord shall follow the procedure on this Dao Lord Token as a continued tradition."

Mo Wuji finished speaking and instantly took out a Star Soul Stone and a Primal Fire Crystal the size of a longan to start refining the token in front of everyone. The Primal Fire Crystal was a very decent item but no matter how decent the item was, n.o.body dared to covet for it as long as it was on Mo Wuji’s hands. Moreover, the piece that Mo Wuji took out became a small one very soon after.

Mo Wuji was already a Grade 9 Smith Emperor so something like refining a token would only take a matter of seconds.

Once this token, which contained the energy of a flame, was completed by Mo Wuji and started suspending in mid-air, Mo Wuji said, "In the future, this token shall be the Dao Lord’s warrant and it shall be pa.s.sed on throughout the generations that lived in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos."

The Star Soul Stone might be rare but it was still attainable by most of the experts here. As for an item like the Primal Fire Crystal, it was a treasure that was hard even to find or see it.

Additionally, this Dao Lord Token would even have the array runes carved out by Mo Wuji so he believed that he would be the only person capable of making such a token.

The Dao Lord Const.i.tution had been established, the laws had been drawn out, the Dao Lord Token was born and Mo Wuji had finally started on installing the defensive array of the Cosmos Edge. One could say that the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos had truly entered a new era and it was no longer the same messy place where might makes right and slaughtering of cultivators was allowed everywhere.

There was completely no need for Mo Wuji to mobilize the force to start the construction of the defensive array because people were already all fired up to start installing. Because of the abundant supply of resources provided, Mo Wuji installed the deathtrap array, killing arrays and even added in energy gathering array as well as an illusion array.

Mo Wuji honoured his promise as he created eight main controlling array flags used to activate the array. Other than this, Mo Wuji also carved in a bunch of array runes into his defensive array and deathtrap array. For such array runes, he would be the only one who could tell because even Grade 9 immortal array masters could forget about figuring out what Mo Wuji did to the defensive array of the Cosmos Edge.

Because Mo Wuji was the Dao Lord and also the person who spearheaded the installation of the defensive array, n.o.body had any objections about the fact that his main array flag could activate the defensive array and deathtrap array by himself. If a Dao Lord could not even control the activation of the defensive array, what was the point of the Dao Lord?

As for the remaining seven people who held onto the array flags, as long as four of them gathered and threw out their array flags together, they would be able to activate the defensive array.

These were not Mo Wuji’s main motive as his true method was those void array runes within the defensive array. These void array runes constructed another peak grade deathtrap array which could only be activated by Mo Wuji himself.

The installation of the Cosmos Edge’s defensive array was very swift because in just a single month, the entire defensive array was completely constructed.

Mo Wuji handed out the controlling array flags before tasking Jie Ying and Feng Huang to deal with the respective rewards to be given out while he started sealing up the other immortal cities meant for the Human Race.

Other than the Ping Fan Immortal City, the Human Race had another four more immortal cities in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. Because the number of people in the Human Race was simply way too little, they would only occupy the Ping Fan Immortal City for the time being.

For the Ping Fan Immortal City, Mo Wuji also installed a peak grade defensive array and deathtrap array before handing the array flags to Immortal Empress Wen Lan and Ape Mo.

"Wuji, from the looks of your defensive arrays, it seemed like even experts who surpa.s.sed the Dao Emperor Stage might not be able to break through it easily," As he saw Mo Wuji finally completing the defensive array of Ping Fan Immortal City, Ape Mo commented with admiration. He was truly unable to imagine where did Mo Wuji learn his array dao from and how much time he had actually spent learning.

Mo Wuji sighed and said, "Back when I cultivated to the Worldly Immortal Stage, I presumed that my strength was incomparable and that n.o.body would ever be a match again. However, the truth was that I am only a frog in the well who had yet to see the world. Therefore, even though my defensive array might look strong and impenetrable, I am afraid that once true experts intend to open this place up, it would only need a wave of their hand to do so.

Mo Wuji was truly emotional as he thought of everything he saw back at the G.o.ds Tower. WIthout mentioning the experts like Yu Minjiang and Ji Li from the G.o.ds Tower, even the revival of any one of those stranded equipment spirit could easily oppress the entire Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos.

"Is Junior Brother Mo leaving the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos?" While Mo Wuji was installing the defensive array, sealing the other four immortal cities as well as setting up Ping Fan Immortal City’s defensive array, Immortal Empress Wen Lan had always followed closely behind him. She sensed that Mo Wuji seemed to have some inner thoughts. Now that Mo Wuji said such words, she was even more certain that Mo Wuji was going to leave.

Mo Wuji nodded, "I am indeed going to leave for a period of time. Senior Sister Wen Lan, Ape Mo, I would like to trouble the two of you with some matters."

"Wuji, go ahead and tell us," Ape Mo said without hesitating.

Wen Lan looked convincingly at Mo Wuji and even though she didn’t say anything, she had already expressed that as long as it was within her means, she would not let Mo Wuji down.

Mo Wuji raised his hand to strike out a soundproof restriction before saying, "My wife is called Cen Shuyin and there was a high possibility that she and another female called Lin Gu came to the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos. However, I haven’t manage to obtain any news about them during this period of time so when I am not around, I would like to ask the two of you to help me look out for them."

"Wuji, you don’t have to worry," Ape Mo nodded.

Wen Lan also added in, "Junior Brother Mo, you can rest a.s.sure that as long as your wife, Shuyin, is here, I would definitely be able to find her."

She and Ape Mo were well aware as to why Mo Wuji would trouble them to help and even struck out the soundproof restrictions to ask for their help. Even though Mo Wuji was the Dao Lord of the Cosmos Edge, there were probably countless of people who wanted Mo Wuji’s head. If people knew that Mo Wuji’s wife was in the Cosmos Edge, they might target Mo Wuji’s wife since they might not be able to deal with Mo Wuji himself.

Mo Wuji clasped his fists and replied, "Since that is the case, I shall make my move first. I will come back as soon as I could and then find the pathway which leads back to the Immortal World."

The territories in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos was decided by Mo Wuji but Mo Wuji was certain that the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos needed the arrival of more Human Race cultivators so that the Human Race could truly establish a proper foothold here. This would be much more ideal than relying on him alone or a small cl.u.s.ter of Human Race cultivators.

As she watched upon Mo Wuji’s departure, Immortal Empress Wen Lan was still speechless. She knew that Mo Wuji was the future of the Immortal World’s Human Race and that Mo Wuji was also the person suffering the greatest grievance in the Immortal World.

n.o.body else was like Mo Wuji where he was cursed and scolded at by many people even before reaching the Grand Luo Immortal Stage. n.o.body else was like Mo Wuji where he was encircled by three Grand Emperors and one Quasi-Emperor even before he reached the Immortal King Stage. To put things into greater perspective, n.o.body else was like Mo Wuji fighting his life for the Human Race here while the Very High Heavens’ Zi Changluo was only focused on eradicating his legacy in the form of Ping Fan Immortal School.

However, she didn’t dare to tell Mo Wuji about all these because she would have told him if the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos even had a pathway to the Very High Heavens. Now that the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos didn’t have the pathway which leads to the Very High Heavens, telling Mo Wuji would only make him worry and ruin his current mood.

Mo Wuji was at the pinnacle of his Grand Dao and was also rising speedily. If she were to affect Mo Wuji’s mood at this crucial period of time and stall Mo Wuji’s progress, she, Wen Lan, would be the most guilty criminal of all time.

"Junior Sister Wen Lan, you don’t have to worry about Mo Wuji. He’ll be fine," Ape Mo could sense the Immortal Empress Wen Lan"s worry for Mo Wuji so he casually comforted her.

He knew that Mo Wuji was heading towards the Thousand Talismans Mountain and with Mo Wuji’s level of dao, there really wasn’t an existence which could threaten Mo Wuji there.

…

The Thousand Talismans Mountain was not in the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos and was like the G.o.ds Precipice Continent where he needed to cross an immortal chasm.

The G.o.ds Precipice Continent and the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos was only an immortal chasm apart from each other while the Thousand Talismans Mountain and the Heaven’s Beyond Cosmos was about four immortal chasm apart.

If Mo Wuji didn’t have the spatial positioning map given by Ape Mo, he would definitely not be able to find the Thousand Talismans Mountain. Within the vast and boundless s.p.a.ce, there were all sorts of heavenly chasm, immortal chasm and even different variety of void canyons.

Mo Wuji’s flying car was forged just like how Cen Shuyin traded with him and it was handed to Shuai Guo to take the realm. He and Da Huang were both in secluded cultivation.

Shuai Guo was asleep for many years and was temporarily unable to continue increasing his cultivation level which was why he was the one controlling the flying car. Da Huang had just been revived by Mo Wuji so he chose to cultivate Immortal Mortal Technique which also required time.

Mo Wuji’s cultivation level had reached the peak of the elementary Immortal Emperor Stage and was only a step away from the intermediate Immortal Emperor Stage. Naturally, he would want to increase his cultivation level to the intermediate Immortal Emperor Stage before arriving at the Thousand Talismans Mountain.

Twists and Turns

The flying car trembled and Mo Wuji came to his senses from his secluded cultivation. That feeling of being disturbed abruptly from enlightenment was something that Mo Wuji didn’t enjoy.

The green crystals and immortal crystals which he took out were basically all turned into dust and to be honest, he was certain that if he were given a few more days, he would be able to enter the Immortal Emperor intermediate stage. The pity was that the flying car trembled and now, he could only remain stagnant at the Great Circle of the Immortal Emperor elementary stage.

"Shuai Guo, what was going on? Don’t you know that Da Huang and I are in the midst of our secluded cultivation?" Mo Wuji raged as he walked onto the deck.

"My Lord, our flying car seemed to be suddenly attacked by something causing it to stop," Shuai Guo hurried to explain.

It could clearly feel that something like a ma.s.sive mountain crashed into the flying car but on closer look, it didn’t manage

Chapter 828: I Want Dao Friend Mo’s Immortal Puppet

Translator: Sparrow Translations  Editor: Sparrow Translations

The skinny man said faintly, "Even if he was in the void and not in the Kun Guest Hall, a fella who had yet to enter the Saint Stage shouldn’t expect to escape from me, Fu Feiyan. Let’s go and meet this person together."

"Master, only the two of us?" She Du was slightly hesitant as he was quite fearful of Mo Wuji.

The man who addressed himself as Fu Feiyan shouted, "Once something like the Phecda Clay reveals itself, who in the Thousand Talismans Mountain wouldn’t want it? This is a peak grade material for talisman which is capable of reconstructing the heavenly talisman and fleshly body. How could we reveal it to everyone else?"

"Yes, Master," She Du hurried to answer.

...

"Senior, this is our Kun Guest Hall. May I invite senior to head in?" Huan Feifei brought Mo Wuji to the entrance of a luxurious looking hall. She stopped and extended her arms to direct Mo Wuji.

Yet, Mo Wuji stood there with his furrowed brows. Having installed the defensive array of the Cosmos Edge and Ping Fan Immortal City, he consider himself as a legitimate Grade 9 immortal array master. Moreover, there were still some differences between an average Grade 9 immortal array master. The difference was that he deduced his Array Dao from his Immortal Mortal Technique so it was considered to be one of its kind.

Because of the Immortal Mortal Technique, Mo Wuji could even treat something ordinary like trees and gra.s.s as array flags. Additionally, Mo Wuji was also proficient in void array runes technique.

Yet, when standing in front of this guest hall, Mo Wuji felt incredibly uneasy.

Other than his sixth sense, Mo Wuji could sense something different given his current standard of Array Dao. This seemed to be an extremely concealed deathtrap array.

Mo Wuji frowned at how treacherous She Du"s plan to a.s.sa.s.sinate him with a plot like this was.

"Oh yes, what do you call this hall again?" Mo Wuji questioned.

"Kun Guest Hall, this is one of the big three conference hall of our Thousand Talismans Mountain. Usually, we would usher the respectable guests to either the Kun Guest Hall or the Qian Guest Hall," Huan Feifei explained.

Mo Wuji sneered at the names of these halls. Kun Guest Hall and Qian Guest Hall in other words would be ‘trapping guest’ and ‘capturing guest’. [1]

Naturally, a sect which installed concealed deathtrap array within their own guest hall showed how unsurprisingly narrow minded this sect was. Mo Wuji did believe that She Du brought him over to the Kun Guest Hall with ill-intentions. Otherwise, She Du wouldn’t have not asked for Mo Wuji’s name after his 180 degrees change in att.i.tude. In fact, She Du didn’t even ask for Mo Wuji’s name or where he came from throughout their entire encounter.

As Mo Wuji was about to install a few void array runes, a haggard looking middle aged man walked over.

Huan Feifei hurried to bow and greet this middle aged man as he walked over, "Huan Feifei greets the Talisman Lord."

The Talisman Lord of the Thousand Talismans Mountain? Mo Wuji had heard of this person from Ape Mo so he stood out with his clasped fists, "Could this be the Talisman Lord, Fu Xiuhan of the Thousand Talismans Mountain?"

The middle aged man looked doubtfully at Mo Wuji as he asked, "I am indeed Fu Xiuhan and may I ask who this Dao Friend is?"

Before Mo Wuji could reply, Huan Feifei interjected and said, "This senior is Deacon She’s friend. Deacon She has to attend to some matters and will be very soon."

Hearing that Mo Wuji was She Du’s friend, the originally doubtful look of Fu Xiuhan had disappeared without a trace as he said, "Since this is the case, treat the guest properly."

Having said that, Fu Xiuhan hurried off and couldn’t even be bothered to listen to what Mo Wuji had to say.

Mo Wuji was slightly speechless. Everyone here in the Thousand Talismans Mountain treated him like he was extremely desperate for a talisman.

Was a Grade 9 Talisman Emperor very impressive? He, Mo Wuji, was a Tier 9 Pill Emperor, Grade 9 Smith Emperor as well as a Grade 9 Array Master. Even so, he didn’t think of himself as impressive.

Because of the unfavourable impression Mo Wuji held for the Thousand Talismans Mountain, he continually used his spirit storage channel to carve out array runes after array runes. In a short period of time, the entire entrance of the Kun Guest Hall was filled with Mo Wuji’s array runes.

"Senior, please," After Fu Xiuhan left, Huan Feifei bowed and said.

Mo Wuji nodded as he secretly drew out a few array flags to hide within his array runes before entering the Kun Guest Hall.

Huan Feifei’s had a limited cultivation so she had no idea Mo Wuji actually managed to do so many things in that short period of time.

Once Mo Wuji entered the Kun Guest Hall, he knew that the concealed deathtrap array was even stronger inside. In fact, it was chained with the one outside too. He said to Huan Feifei, "You can wait outside while I sit and wait here."

"Yes, Senior," Huan Feifei dared not speak much as she left the Kun Guest Hall in a hurry.

Huan Feifei left and Mo Wuji grabbed a bunch of array flags. He started to install a counter deathtrap array fearlessly. Simultaneously, he started sketching out array runes.

This Kun Guest Hall was also a Grade 9 deathtrap array. For others, countering a deathtrap array of this standard would almost be impossible. Without mentioning how rare it was to find Grade 9 Array Masters, even Grade 9 Array Masters who could notice the Grade 9 deathtrap array wouldn’t be able to counter it in a short period of time.

Once someone entered the area covered by this deathtrap array, they could forget about leaving.

Mo Wuji was not an average person because he cultivated the Mortal Dao. In Mo Wuji’s eyes, no matter how deep the array flags were concealed, it would simply look ordinary to Mo Wuji. Moreover, Mo Wuji reversed his Immortal Mortal Technique and was thus, skilled at countering such deathtrap arrays.

"My Lord, is there something wrong here?" Looking at how Mo Wuji installed the various array flags, Da Huang asked.

Shuai Guo said disdainfully, "What do you know? Whether something is wrong or not, our Lord is preparing for the worst. Da Huang, you should watch and learn instead of just cultivating."

"Haha I’ve let this Dao Friend wait too long. I am the Thousand Talismans Mountain’s number one Supreme Elder Fu Feiyan. May I ask how do I address this Dao Friend here?" A loud laughter could be heard and a skinny, skeleton-like man walked over.

The person behind this man was She Du, who Mo Wuji knew from earlier on.

Mo Wuji stood up and said, "Rogue cultivator Mo Wuji greets Dao Friend Fu. I’ve heard of the reputable name of the Thousand Talismans Mountain so I came in hope of a specific talisman."

"Alright, let’s take a seat and discuss about this." Fu Feiyan’s eyes instantly fell on Da Huang while he was speaking to Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji sat down once again and knew why She Du would try to plot against him. The reason must be Da Huang. This Thousand Talismans Mountain must have some impressive technique to be able to see through Da Huang’s Phecda Clay body.

"Dao Friend Mo, this immortal puppet seems to have an average type of spirit and wisdom. May I ask where Dao Friend Mo manage to obtain this immortal puppet?" Fu Feiyan didn’t act immediately because he seemed to sense some peculiarity about Mo Wuji. He was half a step into the Saint Stage yet he was unable to sense the spirituality fluctuations around Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji just appeared to look like an ordinary mortal.

Fu Feiyan didn’t believe that Mo Wuji was ordinary. Would an ordinary person be able to tear their Grade 9 Pseudo-World Talisman?

Indeed, Mo Wuji smiled as he said, "Da Huang is my friend and had lost his fleshly body during one of the battles. On one rare circ.u.mstance, I managed to find a piece of Phecda Clay and used it to condense Da Huang’s fleshly body."

"Ah…" Fu Feiyan stared at Mo Wuji with a gaping mouth.

He was shocked at not only how Mo Wuji said without hesitation that Da Huang was forged using the Phecda Clay, he was even more dumbfounded at how Mo Wuji knew about the Phecda Clay and still used it to forge an immortal puppet’s fleshly body. Had this fella gone crazy?

"Sigh!" Fu Feiyan puffed out a breath before containing his emotions as he said, "Dao Friend Mo, may I know where did you get your Phecda Clay from? And if it is convenient to let me know?"

Mo Wuji smiled, "There is nothing inconvenient about it. I was within the depths of a trap array and met this benefactor called Yu Minjiang. This benefactor is kind and charitable as he told me about the location of the Phecda Clay and then let me obtain it."

"So do you still have any Phecda Clay?" Fu Feiyan asked while feeling uneasy.

Fu Feiyan could already tell that Da Huang’s fleshly body had been forged for less than half a year. This meant that they could still retrieve apart of the Phecda Clay from Da Huang. However, the more Phecda Clay he could obtain, the better for him especially so for Phecda Clay which had yet to be used.

"I have used everything to recover Da Huang," Mo Wuji maintained his smile.

Only half of the Phecda Clay Mo Wuji had was used on Da Huang while the other half was still in his Undying World. Mo Wuji would naturally not bring out a treasure like the Phecda Clay so casually.

Fu Feiyan was cursing in his heart at how this fella was ruining this item.

"Dao Friend Fu, I’ve heard that the Thousand Talismans Mountain have all sorts of talismans. I wonder if I could request for a few talismans?" Mo Wuji didn’t wish to continue blabbering about the Phecda Clay so he simply mentioned his purpose of visit.

"May I ask which talismans does Dao Friend Mo need?" Fu Feiyan suppressed his thirst for the Phecda Clay as he inquired calmly.

"I would like to ask for a few World Rending Talismans and preferably the World Rending Talisman which could lead me to the Mortal World," Mo Wuji asked while clasping his fists.

After his talk with Ape Mo, Mo Wuji knew about the different grades of the World Rending Talisman. The grade of the talisman allowing one to head from the Immortal World to Cultivation World would be lower than that which allowed one to head from the Immortal World straight to the Mortal World.

Fu Feiyan replied, "My apologies because a World Rending Talisman like this was something no one in my Thousand Talismans Mountain was able to forge. Without mentioning the World Rending Talisman which could bring one directly to the Mortal World, our Thousand Talismans Mountain didn’t even have a talisman which could bring one from the Immortal World to Cultivation World. If Dao Friend Mo’s cultivation level is below the Grand Luo Stage, I might still be able to help you get a few World Rending Talismans of that grade."

Mo Wuji was instantly disappointed when he heard this before sighing with his fist clasped, "Since that is the case, I shall not disturb Dao Friend Fu anymore."

"Hold on." Seeing that Mo Wuji was not interested in that Grand Luo World Rending Talisman, Fu Feiyan added. "Dao Friend Mo, even though I might not have a direct method of getting the highest grade World Rending Talisman, I might have an indirect method."

"Oh, please share some pointers with me," Mo Wuji was inwardly pleased as he asked.

"Does that mean Dao Friend Mo is willing to trade with me?" Fu Feiyan asked again.

Mo Wuji knew what the other party was thinking about yet he remained calmed and said. "That’s right, as long as you are able to get me the World Rending Talisman which would allow me to head back to the Cultivation World, I am willing to trade."

"Very good, I need Dao Friend Mo’s immortal puppet," Fu Feiyan pointed to Da Huang, who was standing right beside Mo Wuji.
