Chapter 597: Purple Qi Sunrise
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mo Wen’s current change was naturally related to the straw cape he was wearing. It was a special spiritual weapon. Even though he did not know what rank the cape was, its current effect was not any worse than the Green Primordial Mirror, and might even be more practical.
Because of the confusion provided by the straw cape, the tiger hoop could not find its target. It went past Mo Wen and did not even touch an edge of his body.
“Purple Qi Sunrise.”
Pavilion Leader Ye Rong did not expect Mo Wen to be powerful enough to destroy their joint attack so easily. She had only wanted to stop Mo Wen from escaping. But she had to do her best now.
Her long fingers tapped the Purple Bottle Gourd and a ray of purple light flickered. The Purple Bottle Gourd released a light never seen before. A stream of purple Qi sprayed out from the bottle’s opening. This time, it was not gas. Instead, it transformed into a purple blade. It looked solid as if it were a tangible object.
The purple blade appeared instantly in front of Mo Wen. It flickered and then rushed for his throat.
Mo Wen’s pupils shrank and his body tightened. He felt that the purple blade was terrifying and dangerous. It was not an ordinary attack.
He did not hesitate and his body flickered, turning into a black mist. The purple light passed through the black mist. However, he had not expected that the purple blade seemed to have locked onto him. It turned back and charged at him again as if it were sure where Mo Wen was. It was even faster and more accurate this time. He did not even have time to dodge.
Mo Wen’s expression changed. His finger flicked and the Sacred Flame Sword appeared in his hand again. This time, he did not dodge. Instead, he used his sword. However, the sword was imbued with the power of the Glory of Cloud. It made the ordinary extraordinary and displayed the mysterious capabilities of martial arts to the extreme.
The purple blade and the tip of the sword collided, emitting a startling ball of light. Many of the warriors watching below subconsciously narrowed their eye. The sky was filled with light. The long sword immediately released an uncountable amount of sword Qi. Each ray of sword Qi collided with each ray of purple light. This went on for ten breaths of time before the lights slowly dissipated.
In the air, Mo Wen remained upright, his body held straight and he held the flaming long sword in his hand.
Pavilion Leader Ye Rong’s expression darkened. She had released almost 80 percent of the Purple Bottle Gourd’s power. Even a later stage Golden Elixir realm practitioner might be injured. However, it had not hurt the youth.
The sword seemed simple but had taken the blow of the Purple Qi Pavilion’s renowned Purple Qi Sunrise. This surprised her greatly.
Bu Zhangkun and Jiang Pingzhou were also shocked. The top warriors of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension all knew how powerful each other was. They all knew who had what ability and hidden cards.
Even though the Purple Qi Sunrise was not the last hidden card of Purple Qi Pavilion, it was still a famous and terrifying method. If they had gone against the Purple Qi Sunrise from the Purple Bottle Gourd, they might be badly injured if they did not use any of their hidden abilities.
Jiang Jingtao had already been badly injured by Mo Wen’s punch earlier. His combat ability was lessened by half. He could not imagine at all that in a sudden burst of strength, the youth’s ability would be so powerful.
Mo Wen held the Sacred Flame Sword tightly. He looked at the powerhouses surrounding him with eyes that were as dark and deep as water. He exuded an aura that made others cower. However, while he seemed to have gained the upper hand on all outward appearance, only he knew that his inner Qi had already depleted by half in the few previous attacks.
Even though Bu Zhangkun had attacked a few times, the depletion of his inner Qi was still way lesser than his.
He had used the Glory of Thunder twice and the Glory of Cloud once. That was too much of a waste of inner Qi. Even though the Glory of Cloud was particular about technique and did not expend inner Qi as much as the Glory of Thunder, as a rite of passage martial arts, Mo Wen had to compensate quite a bit every time he used it.
“He doesn’t have much inner Qi left. He must be destroyed by us before too long.”
As one of the top existences in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, Bu Zhangkhan’s judgment was not poor. All four of them were aware of Mo Wen’s current state.
Jiang Pingzhou laughed viciously, laughing coldly while looking at Mo Wen. However, nobody took the initiative to attack at this time.
Even though they knew that Mo Wen would not be able to last for much longer, they also knew that a cultivator clawing at the brink of death was even scarier. No one dared to take the lead at this time. The strength that Mo Wen had displayed had already made the top experts of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension felt fearful.
“What is it? You’re scared! Didn’t you say that I can only be left for you guys to destroy? Then come at me.” Mo Wen laughed coldly at Jiang Pingzhou. He hated the old man Jiang Pingzhou the most out of the four. If he had to choose to kill one of them, he would definitely choose Jiang Pingzhou first.
Jiang Pingzhou smiled frostily and did not speak. He was not stupid. How could he take the lead right now? Even if they wanted to strike, they had to strike together. He would not fight Mo Wen alone.
The battle in the sky paused momentarily for that moment.
Chen Wuhui, who was on the ground, was very anxious. If they continued to fight, Mo Wen would definitely get into trouble. After all, he was just one person. No matter how strong he was, he would not be able to fight against four of the top powerhouses.
No one else but a later stage Golden Elixir realm practitioner who was one level higher than the four could do that. Furthermore, those people were not ordinary people. They all had sufficiently powerful treasures with them.
“Don’t fight anymore!” Chen Wuhui yelled loudly. “Don’t forget, Luofeng Sect’s most powerful treasures are the Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell.” Chen Wuhui could not interfere with the battle above and could only use this method to shift everyone’s attention.
Even though they had seen many treasures since coming to this great hall, they had not seen the most precious Dark Soul Pearl and Cries of Hades Bell. The eight top grade spiritual weapons could not even compare with the Cries of Hades bell because it was a profound level weapon.
Even though the Purple Bottle Gourd was known to be the item closest to being a profound level weapon, it was still not a profound level weapon. Compared to true profound level weapons, there was still a relatively large difference.
Many people reacted upon hearing Chen Wuhui’s words. The most precious Dark Soul Pearl and Cries of Hades Bell of Luofeng Sect had yet to be found. They had been blinded by the various treasures in the great hall earlier, especially by the treasures on top of the eight stone pillars. Many had forgotten the Dark Soul Pearl and Cries of Hades Bell.
After all, to the warriors in the great hall, a top grade spiritual weapon was the best treasure. A profound level weapon was no different from a legend.
The four powerhouses who had been prepared to attack Mo Wen again paused and then reacted. The Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell did not seem to be on the stone pillars.
“Where are the Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell?” Bu Zhangkun narrowed his eyes. His gaze swept through the great hall slowly, evidently looking for the two treasures.
If they could gain either the Dark Soul Pearl or the Cries of Hades bell, then Five Beasts Sect would become the top sect of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Purple Qi Pavilion could no longer be compared to them.
In a small inner world like the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, a profound level weapon was the highest symbol.
Pavilion Leader Ye Rong and the others all looked around the great hall, looking for the treasures.
Mo Wen slowly took out a jade bottle from his sleeves and poured out a green colored medicinal pill. It was the medicinal pill he had concocted at Intentionless Sect. It could replenish his inner Qu. After eating the pill, his inner Qi would be able to recover fully in half a minute.
He had enough spiritual medicine now, and the medicinal pill resources he had were sufficient. Otherwise, he would not dare to casually use the three Glory techniques. After all, in normal situations, a warrior in the Golden Elixir realm would have to meditate for half a day to recover his inner Qi.
The four powerhouses were focused on the Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell. They did not bother with Mo Wen and allowed him to swallow the medicinal pill. As long as they did not release him, they would sooner or later take the treasures he had from him. If they focused on Mo Wen now and allowed the Dark Soul Pearl and cries of Hades Bell to be taken by others, then that would be a major loss.
“If I have guessed correctly, the Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell should be in the coffin down there.” Mo Wen swept his glance at the ground and then spoke with a cold laugh. Other than being slightly odd earlier, nothing was happening with the coffin right now. It was no different from ordinary coffins.
His words immediately provided everyone with a clue. Everyone’s gaze was immediately fixed on the red coffin.
Mo Wen’s theory seemed highly likely. The empty great hall, while large, did not have many places to hide things. The inside of the coffin was the most obvious place. Furthermore, the owner of the coffin must not be without power if they had been able to leave the coffin here. Perhaps, it was the coffin of the last sect leader of Luofeng Sect.
Some of the warriors were already moving to the coffin subconsciously. There was an undisguisable heat in their eyes.
“Hurmph. I shall take a look first.” The eyes of Jiang Pingzhou, who was in the air, flickered. Then, he turned into a ray of light and flew down forcefully. A gust of wind started, causing the warriors who tried to get close to the coffin to fall left and right. He had missed the opportunity earlier leading to Mo Wen taking half of the treasures on the stone pillar. He did not want to miss the opportunity again this time.
Bu Zhangkun and Pavilion Leader Ye Rong hesitated for a moment. They glanced at Mo Wen and then gritted their teeth before following Jiang Pingzhou closely. They flew toward the red coffin.
They were worried that Mo Wen would take the opportunity to leave, and also afraid that the Dark Soul Pearl and Cries of Hades Bell would be inside the coffin, letting Jiang Pingzhou have the opportunity to take it first. After measuring it in their hearts, they picked the Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell. After all, even if they added all the treasures in the great hall together, they might not be as precious as these two treasures.
Furthermore, the Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell might very likely be in the coffin.
“Mo Wen, quick leave.” Chen Wuhui’s eyes shone with delight when he saw what was going on. He did not care anymore, and after calling up to Mo Wen, turned to run outside.
Everyone was now focused on the coffin. It was the best time to run. Intentionless Sect had gained plenty of treasures in the great hall. Even though they were not as precious as the treasures on the stone pillar, even low-grade spiritual weapons were absolute treasures. There were many vague glances from many warriors staring at him, prepared to steal them from him anytime.
As such, Chen Wuhui felt very uneasy in the great hall. Now that there was an opportunity to escape, he would naturally not miss it. As for the Dark Soul Pearl and the Cries of Hades Bell, he did not even think about them. He knew his limits and those things were not things that Intentionless Sect should have. They would only bring trouble.
