Chapter 496: I Will Accept it

Mo Wen squinted his eyes slightly, his body hidden by the snowstorm. He was watching the battle in the distance with much interest.
The ability to fight in the center region of the Snow Storm Stratagem was something that only the martial arts practitioners in the Golden Elixir realm possessed. It was questionable whether normal martial arts practitioners in the Embryonic Breathing realm would be able to resist the power of the Snow Storm Stratagem.
The three people who were fighting in front of Mo Wen were all strong experts in the Golden Elixir realm. One of them was fighting two others and actually was not at a disadvantage. That person was an old man in his fifties who was dressed in green. He had a metal ruler in his hand and was waving it with much vigor.
The other two people were dressed in red with a big golden sun print on their backs. They were not young either. They had five golden flames on their chests so they must be the Elders of the Sacred Flame Sect.
“Is that person a martial arts practitioner of the Intentionless Sect? It’s one fighting against two so I reckon he must have the assistance of the power of the Snow Storm Stratagem.” Mo Wen’s sharp eyes realized what was going on at a glance. That old man in green was obviously using the power of the Snow Storm Stratagem to fight against the two others.
The Snow Storm Stratagem had suppressed the power of the two elders of the Sacred Flame Sect but increased the strength of the old man in green. In the midst of the snowstorm, the speed was extremely terrifying and in the split second of waving, he was able to activate and transform the snow storm into his attack.
The two elders of the Sacred Flame Sect were besieging one person, yet they were finding it tough.
“The Snow Storm Stratagem is indeed wondrous. That’s why even under such a disadvantaged position, the Intentionless Sect have been able to persevere for such a long time.” A sense of admiration flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. This Snow Storm Stratagem was a dual direction stratagem which weakened the enemy while increasing one’s strength. The level was relatively high and was way above the Psychedelic array of the Sacred Flame Sect.
“Mu Liao, the Intentionless Sect will be destroyed sooner or later. A last-ditch fight can only end with you being completely destroyed. If you are willing to betray the Intentionless Sect and give in to the Sacred Flame Sect, you will continue to be the Elder of the generation. Your treatment will not be worse than it is in the Intentionless Sect. Stop persisting in your obstinate way.” One of the two elders of the Sacred Flame Sect spoke coldly. He actually intended to provoke the Intentionless Sect’s elder.
“B*llshit. We have been people of the Intentionless Sect for the past five generations and we have never had any traitors among our children and grandchildren. What do you think the Sacred Flame Sect is? The Elder of Sacred Flame Sect killed my uncle so I, Mu Liao, have had an irreconcilable blood feud with you and the Sect for many years.”
Mu Liao snorted coldly as his attacks became more frantic. He was fighting the two elders of the Sacred Flame Sect with all his might.
The two elders of the Sacred Flame Sect were struggling desperately. In the Snow Storm Stratagem, all conditions including location, weather, and people were advantageous to the Intentionless Sect. Both of the elders were having a hard time fighting against just one person.
“The Intentionless Sect has heritage of hundreds of years. Even if the Sacred Flame Sect is able to annihilate the Intentionless Sect, we will make sure you can’t afford the price,” Mu Liao cried. The metal ruler in his hands was activated to the extreme. Streaks of black radiance were emitting from the ruler before it gathered like a lotus and struck out violently towards the two Sacred Flame Sect’s elders.
“Don’t blame us. You are so pig-headed.” The two elders from the Sacred Flame Sect looked at each other as a sinister sense filled their eyes. The Sacred Flame Sect had besieged the Intentionless Sect for more than half a month. Every day the damage to both sides was great. The Sect Leader had already given the order that it was impossible to delay further and the Intentionless Sect must be brought down in one final strike.
As the two elders of the Sacred Flame Sect continued to struggle against Mu Liao, one of them swayed before taking a step back abruptly while the other took a step forward, blocking the Intentionless Sect’s elder, Mu Liao.
“You are courting death.” The pupils of Mu Liao’s eyes contracted. Although he didn’t know what the two fellows of the Sacred Flame Sect intended to do, there was evil in anything abnormal happening. Both of them were not his match when they collaborated, so even if they fought as one person, they still wouldn’t be his match.
Regardless of their purpose, such a chance to kill them was all worth it. Killing one was to maintain the cost, killing two was a bargain. At once, Mu Liao became more vigorous with his attack. The elder of the Sacred Flame Sect who was obstructing Mu Liao was groaning secretly and could only brace himself for the perilous risk of standing beside Mu Liao. He wished that the other person could be faster.
As for the person who retreated from the fighting ground, his lips bore a sinister smile as he fished out a jet-black dagger. The dagger was merely two inches long, but it was flickering a black glowing radiance.
“Spiritual weapon!” At a distance, Mo Wen raised his brows. He had to constrain his feelings as he cast a look at the elder of the Sacred Flame Sect. He had actually fished out a Spiritual weapon from his sleeve. The terrifying deadliness of the weapon was easily recognized at a glance. If it was being used by a martial arts practitioner in the Golden Elixir realm, the power would be staggering.
The Sacred Flame Sect was unusually wealthy. After arriving in the Inner World, Mo Wen felt that it was simply a treasure trove. Moreover, since the Inner World had the spiritual energy and a variety of spiritual medicines and spiritual medicines, it would definitely have varieties of materials for refining weapons and treasures of the heaven and earth, which were produced by the variety of spiritual energies. Previously, Chen Zi mentioned mining, so it was possible to have ores of the materials for Immortal Cultivation, and even possible to have a spiritual stone mine.
The Intentionless Sect was able to maintain the Snow Storm Stratagem for such a long time so there must be a lot of spiritual stones in storage.
Spiritual stones! That was something that Mo Wen didn’t have. He had possessed two spiritual stones that were used and then left behind. He was so miserably poor, but he never expected the Intentionless Sect and the martial arts practitioners of the Inner World to be so rich.
“Spiritual weapon!” Mu Liao, who was frantically attacking the Sacred Flame Sect’s elder, also noticed the other person. His pupils contracted as his face turned grave.
The spiritual weapon was the magical weapon of the Immortal Cultivator. The Intentionless Sect had some too, but they merely had four of them. Even if they were being distributed, they would never end up in his hands. However, he never expected that one of the two elders of the Sacred Flame Sect would have mastered a spiritual weapon.
He was certain that the number of spiritual weapons of the Sacred Flame Sect was definitely not that many more than the Intentionless Sect. If the two normal elders had been allocated the spiritual weapon, could it be that the Sacred Flame Sect was now using all their spiritual weapons?
A sense of worry flashed in Mu Liao’s eyes. If the Sacred Flame Sect had attacked the Intentionless Sect with all their might and had cast caution to the wind, the Intentionless Sect might really not be able to persevere for too long.
“Old b*stard, I will fight you all the way.” Impatiently, Mu Liao cast caution to the wind. He collided into the other elder of Sacred Flame Sect, hoping to get rid of him as soon as possible. If the person had successfully activated the spiritual weapon, he would definitely be too strong an opponent.
“Hurry up!” The elder, who was obstructing Mu Liao, faced wave after wave of terrifying attack. His mouth was continuously spurting out blood as he suffered a severe injury. He bellowed as he hurried his partner along, otherwise, he might really die at Mu Liao’s hands.
The other elder of the Sacred Flame Sect looked composed as he fished out a spiritual stone from the sleeve. He placed it in his mouth rapidly and began chewing it with all his might. The surface of his body emitted a glowing spiritual light and there was spiritual power faintly overflowing.
The elder tapped on the jet-black dagger in front of him, a glowing spiritual light rushing into the dagger. Suddenly, the jet-black dagger gave out a glaring black light which floated in front of the Sacred Flame Sect elder’s body. The blade of the dagger was continuously vibrating softly while emitting a pleasant sound.
Mo Wen’s mouth twitched. That fellow seemed too barbaric to actually swallow a spiritual stone, but to the martial arts practitioner, swallowing the spiritual stone directly was indeed one of the easiest ways to transform spiritual power.
After the ancient martial arts practitioners had practiced some secret methods, perhaps they could transform spiritual stone into spiritual power, but to those martial arts practitioners who didn’t practice the Immortal Cultivator’s martial arts method, the effect of transformation wasn’t that great. If merely using the secret method to absorb, it would take a very long time to launch an attack using the spiritual weapon.
Of course, there was a solution to resolve this – that was to swallow the spiritual stone. One simply chewed the spiritual stone, absorbing the spiritual energy once again. One’s power would be greatly increased.
The elder of the Sacred Flame Sect wanted to launch an attack as fast as possible, so was planning to use up all his might.
If it was Mo Wen, he wouldn’t do so as he had originally practiced the Immortal Cultivator’s martial arts method. Therefore, he was skilled at guiding the spiritual energy meaning that the effect of absorbing the spiritual energy was way greater than the martial arts practitioner who swallowed the spiritual stone.
However, it was a pity that Mo Wen didn’t have any spiritual stone in his hand. The few pieces that he had were the defective items that he had retained from another person’s hand. Unfortunately, the resources in the main space were too scarce. This was something that Mo Wen couldn’t change.
“Kill!” After the spiritual stone had been transformed into spiritual power, the elder of the Sacred Flame Sect instantly snorted coldly. His finger pointed and the jet-black dagger vibrated softly and constantly before it transformed into a streak of jet-black light and shot out instantly towards Mu Liao.
Mu Liao’s face changed as he quickly moved to avoid the attack of the spiritual weapon. He didn’t dare to resist it by force. The Cultivation of that elder of the Sacred Flame Sect was originally not weaker his, even the Snow Storm Stratagem could weaken him but the weakening of the spiritual weapon was really slight.
Shoo! Unfortunately, the speed of the flying dagger was too fast. The streak of jet-black light flashed and had already swept across Mu Liao’s body and chopped his arm off directly.
Mu Liao was greatly shocked. He immediately sealed the acupoints of his arm to stop the blood from gushing out. His mood was instantly dampened. The power of the spiritual weapon was actually so terrifying that it was beyond his imagination.
“Old Mu Liao, since you are courting death, I shall fulfill your wish.” The elder of the Sacred Flame Sect saw his successful attack and instantly laughed hysterically. His finger pointed again as he launched the energy again. That jet-black flying dagger shot off once again, flying towards Mu Liao.
Mu Liao knew that he was no longer a match for the two people and would die on the spot if he continued fighting. Hence, he thought of retreating so his figure sped away. He had a close shave and just escaped from the jet-black flying dagger. He now intended to retreat.
“Old Mu Liao, you enjoyed beating me just now; let’s see where you are running to.” The elder of the Sacred Flame Sect who had been previously losing to Mu Liao laughed loudly as the grievance in his heart was instantly released. Then, he moved forward, entangling Mu Liao so that the flying dagger spiritual weapon had a chance to finally kill him.
“Die, Old Mu Liao.” The Sacred Flame Sect’s elder who controlled the flying dagger spiritual weapon laughed sinisterly as he activated the flying dagger spiritual weapon once again to kill Mu Liao.
Mu Liao had planned to retreat, but was now entangled by the Sacred Flame Sect’s elder and couldn’t get away. As he saw the jet-black flying dagger flew towards him once again, he felt hopeless. If that dagger were to head towards his neck, he would surely die.
Just when he was ready to cast caution to the wind and use the method of life for life exchange so as to get one person to die with him, an indifferent voice resounded. “Flying dagger is not bad, I will accept it.”
