Chapter 958: Slay the Demon and Rid the Evil
Coincidentally, Ku Ji was on duty this period and had been awaiting instructions at the veteran Law Enforcement Department. He walked over immediately after seeing Mo Wen’s image.
“Ku Ji, you know this person?” The veteran holding on to the crystal bead glanced at Ku Ji in surprise. Wise Man Ku Ji was infamous for being difficult to get along with. He rarely hung out with anyone and mainly focused on cultivation, indifferent to worldly affairs.
The young man made Ku Ji step out to mention that he knew him.
“His name is Mo Wen. Strictly speaking, he’s also one of us, belonging to the martial arts grandmaster palace hall. When I first met him, he’d almost reached the level of Martial Arts Grandmaster. Little did I know that he would progress to this level.”
Ku Ji sighed. He did not mention that he last saw Mo Wen less than six months ago, if he had, everyone would have dropped their jaws.
“He’s from the martial arts grandmaster palace hall? But his ability is already at the level of Primordial Soul Realm and is way beyond the normal preliminary stage of Primordial Soul Realm.” The veteran was puzzled. If he had such high cultivation, why did he stay in the martial arts grandmaster palace hall when he could have entered the Senate? Could he be one of the top leaders in the martial arts grandmaster palace hall?
But he knew some of the top leaders of the martial arts grandmaster palace hall, and he had never heard of such a character.
“He’s a weirdo, ever so unpredictable, but he has probably yet to reach the Primordial Soul Realm.” Ku Ji shook his head. He knew that Mo Wen had always been taken care of by the influential lady in the Huatian Palace. Although he did not know the exact relationship between Mo Wen and the lady, she would have instructed him to visit the Path of Creation before breaking through to the Primordial Soul Realm.
Everyone only had one chance to visit the Path of Creation of Huatian Palace, and it was limited to cultivators below the level of the Primordial Soul Realm.
“What? Not even the Primordial Soul Realm? Is he... those few...?” The veteran was shocked. If the young man had not even reached the Primordial Soul Realm and yet possessed such strong battling powers, he would be a tough nut to crack. As far as he knew, these type of people were rare, even in the Huatian Palace–Madman Xiao was one of those special people with such abilities.
Could this young man be one too? But why had he never heard of him? He was too mysterious.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“You’re right. He’s indeed one of those. The name list of the International Superpowers Competition has been fixed, and he’s one of them.”
Ku Ji laughed. Never did he expect the young man who he had thought highly of would advance to such a level.
“However, the realms are in turbulent times. The International Superpowers Competition is unlikely to proceed as scheduled. It’s unexpected that, after so many years of development, the uncivilized barbarians bore such great ambitions and are prepared to interfere with our Kyushu battle. They’re overconfident.” Ku Ji said while showing a cold smile.
The uncivilized barbarians thought that they had grown strong enough to take part in the Source Battle. The current world situation was complex, which also affected the Source World, causing great distress to the Huatian Palace.
“The uncivilized barbarians are asking for humiliation. They dare to challenge our Spirit Realm with their abilities? That’s wishful thinking.”
Speaking of the uncivilized barbarians, a veteran in the Law Enforcement Department also snorted, full of disdain for the outsiders of Kyushu.
“Don’t be too full of yourselves. Like us, those uncivilized barbarians managed to survive Immortal End Day until today. They must have some kind of merit. People like you say that the uncivilized barbarians are good-for-nothing, but people up there keep a lookout for their attitude. No matter what, in the most recent 100,000 years, those uncivilized barbarians rose quickly and have already given birth to quite a few Heavenly Path ultimate strong practitioners.”
“On their own, they may not be able to stir much trouble, but if they were to work with one of the realms in Kyushu, they may gain victory,” a rational veteran analyzed. One should never be overconfident. People in Kyushu had looked down on the uncivilized barbarians all these years, but there must be some reasons for them to be able to survive up until now. Times have changed, and if they were to keep the old mindset, they might fail terribly.
“OK, old Zhao. Old fellows like us know these principles. The Heavenly Path ultimate strong practitioners exist among the uncivilized barbarians, which gives them a foothold. However, their situation may not be better than Kyushu with their intense internal conflict.”
“We’re just having a casual chat now. There’s no need to be so serious. Since the uncivilized barbarians are prepared to take part in the Source Battle, there’ll be a chance to test their abilities. Peace may not persist in this world for too long. We’ll have to keep a close eye on those uncivilized barbarians and make sure we don’t come up with any bad ideas.”
...
“You all continue chatting. I’ll head out. Mo Wen has managed to enter Peng Lai Immortal Realm without permission from the Huatian Palace. He probably found a passageway to enter the Peng Lai Immortal Realm from the outside world, which is not a small feat.”
Without participating in the casual chat of the veterans, Ku Ji walked out of the Law Enforcement Department. He just checked and realized that there was no record in the Huatian Palace regarding Mo Wen’s entry into the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. After he checked, he used sound resonating and checked with Mo Qingge, who was the Deputy Director of Senate, but she was also not the one who secretly sent him in.
What did this imply? It implied that Mo Wen had entered the Peng Lai Immortal Realm through other passageways.
However, passageways into the Peng Lai Immortal Realm were controlled by the Huatian Palace. The number of passageways not controlled by the Huatian Palace was very small, which was either by the heretic path or ancient mystery dimensions. All passageways had a significant meaning to the Peng Lai Immortal Realm. When they first built the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, the situation was a mess as all powers took part, and no one knew the exact number of passageways that were created. The only thing they could be sure of...every passageway had a story or secret behind it.
...
Mo Wen quietly practiced in the inn in Li’an City. As he just been enlightened on the mystical rule for thunder, he had to take this chance to stabilize his practice. The fledging stage of profound meaning was just a step away from profound meaning, but overcoming this step was extremely tough. It was not a matter of how long one had practiced or been enlightened. Spirituality was something that might have been destined to be enlightened. If one could not be enlightened, no amount of practice would help.
Many Infinite Powerhouses had been enlightened during the fledging stage of profound meaning but had never been able to enter the Primordial Soul Realm because they failed to understand the complete profound meaning.
Only if they were able to understand the complete profound meaning, then they could easily enter the Primordial Soul Realm. If they were incapable of understanding it completely, they would never be able to break through the ordinary class.
Of course, some cultivators only understood the fledging stage of profound meaning but managed to attain the level of Primordial Soul Realm. However, these types of people had been promoted through special measures instead of taking the usual path. They had to pay a hefty price, and their strength was much weaker than those who took the normal path to Primordial Soul Realm cultivation.
Earlier, State Preceptor Fang of Fengyu Country had also suspected Mo Wen as one of those cultivators, so he did not take him seriously.
“In my current situation, I can try breaking through to the Primordial Soul Realm and allow myself to be reborn, undergoing a complete transformation. But Mo Qingtian warned before not to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm easily. Only cultivators below the Primordial Soul Realm can take part in the International Superpowers Competition. Moreover, it’ll be best to make a trip to the Path of Creation before breaking through.”
Mo Wen remembered all this. Even though he was not especially concerned over the participation of the International Superpowers Competition, making a trip to the Path of Creation was a must.
...
“What? That Mo Wen came to the Peng Lai Immortal Realm?”
In the corner of the mansion, a young man dressed in red who had evil Qi in his eyes slammed the table and stood up.
Standing in front of him was someone dressed as a servant, bowing respectfully and said, “Elder Yang had said so, and told me to report to you.”
As a servant, naturally, he had no idea who Mo Wen was or why his master would have such strong reactions.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Good! Very good! I didn’t expect you to come seeking your death. Then don’t blame me.”
The young man dressed in red started laughing with a menacing look, eyes full of murderous intent. He was none other than Lord Merciless, the son of the Blood Evil Template Leader.
Coincidentally, the Blood Evil Temple was a sect of Xiabian Prefecture, right next to Donghe Prefecture, not far away from Li’an City in Xiping Country. The appearance of a demon from the Hades Mountain had caused a commotion, and news spread to the Blood Evil Temple.
The Great Elder of the Blood Evil Temple, Yang Zonglin, happened to show interest in this matter and discovered that the person of interest was Mo Wen, who he hated to the core. He could still remember very clearly the insult he bore in Dragon City, just that he had yet to find a chance to take revenge.
“Uncle Yang, did that Mo Wen come to Peng Lai Immortal Realm?” Lord Merciless anxiously rushed to the Great Elder Mansion. Outside, he could not do anything to Mo Wen; but Peng Lai Immortal Realm was their territory.
“That’s right, and he’d caused a commotion in Donghe Prefecture. Unexpectedly, he had the ominous Ten Thousand Soul Banner. It’ll be best if we can validate the charge against him for colluding with heretic demons so that we’re justified to kill him, and he’ll be doomed.”
Yang Zonglin sneered. This was a godsend chance.
“But...isn’t he from the Huatian Palace?” Lord Merciless asked. As the young master of the Blood Evil Temple, he had checked on Mo Wen’s identity.
“We don’t know if he’s from the Huatian Palace, but we know that he’s from the heretic path.” Yang Zonglin snorted.
“What does this mean?”
“Merciless, learn from your elder brother, Bloodless,” Yang Zonglin said calmly. “If I had been talking to him, he would have understood immediately. The Blood Evil Temple will belong to both of you in the future. Think more, and you may be more than just a little brother who needs to be taken care of.” He gave this sincere advice because Lord Merciless had been filial and respectful to him for many years.
“Yes, Uncle Yang. You’re right.”
Yang Zonglin was the Great Elder in the Blood Evil Temple and held high status and authority. Out of the entire Blood Evil Temple, he was the most likely candidate to break through to the Primordial Soul Realm and become the Sect Grand Elder. Having the support of a Sect Grand Elder was of utmost importance to him. action
On the surface, he was the son of the Blood Evil Temple Leader, but there was internal strife within the sect. Since he had a few brothers, he could not be too relaxed.
“Donghe Prefecture is right beside Xiabian Prefecture. If we rush over there now, we can reach it in less than a day. As for people from the Huatian Palace, even if they head over from the closest Qu State Branch Palace Hall, they will need much more time than we will. We’re heading towards Li’an City to slay the demon and rid the evil, not to take revenge, do you understand?”
The eyes of Yang Zonglin exuded extreme coldness. On the pretext of slaying the demon and getting rid of the evil, even if they killed Mo Wen, the Huatian Palace would not be able to do anything to them. The most they could do was to charge them with manslaughter. As long as people from the Huatian Palace did not arrive, the reputation of Mo Wen as a man from the heretic path would never be cleared.
