"Boom!" The thunder ball exploded, and a bloody mist splattered everywhere. The hook-nosed man let out a shrill and miserable cry, and was no longer able to block Shi Jinwen's continuous waves of essence energy that blasted over.
Shi Jinwen also knew that he was an arrow at the end of its flight. His last attack was merely the best he could do. He wanted to heavily injure the hook-nosed man before letting Yan 'Er and the rest escape. She did not expect that the hook-nosed man would suddenly be ambushed by Mo Wuji during her final attack, and was completely unable to deal with her attack. Even after her elemental energy hit the aquiline nose, she was still in shock at how Mo Wuji managed to sneak an attack on him.
Aquiline Nose had no way to block Shi Jinwen's attack. This attack did not just cause a heavy injury to Aquiline Nose, but a fatal wound. At the same time the hook-nosed man's waist was struck by the lightning ball, his internal organs were torn apart by Shi Jinwen's continuous waves of elemental energy.
How could Mo Wuji let go of such an opportunity? He swung his Tian Ji Pole downwards.
"Pu! Crack …
A teeth-numbing sound could be heard as the hook-nosed man's head was smashed into smithereens by Mo Wuji's rod.
Mo Wuji exhaled slowly, dragging his Tian Ji Pole as he turned around.
Not far away, the heavily injured Shi Jinwen stared blankly at the corpse of the hook-nosed man falling to the ground. She then looked at Mo Wuji, who was dragging his metal pole and slowly turning around. For a moment, she actually forgot to speak.
"Remember to cultivate well and work hard to live." Mo Wuji walked to Yan 'Er, who was also in a daze, and reminded her before slowly walking away. His voice was dry and hoarse, like a lonely traveler in the desert who hadn't seen water for a long time.
After experiencing countless brushes with death, Mo Wuji truly understood how difficult it was to live.
He would leave the storage bag of the hook-nosed man to Yan 'er.
"Who is he?" Only when Mo Wuji's figure disappeared into the distance did the green-robed woman beside Yan 'Er ask.
"I … don't know him …" Yan 'Er said blankly. She still didn't understand why Mo Wuji would risk his life to save her. Before he left, he even urged her to cultivate well and work hard to live. In her memory, she had never had a black-faced Confucian friend. Could it be that this person was also a part of his memory? Didn't Master say that her past memories were of the mortal world? How could he possibly know such an expert?
"Would he have risked his life to save you if he didn't know you?" Another woman in purple asked.
"Yan 'er …" Shi Jinwen called out after consuming a few pills.
"Ah, Senior Sister, are you alright?" Yan 'Er finally woke up and rushed over to support Shi Jinwen.
Shi Jinwen looked in the direction that Mo Wuji disappeared in and asked curiously, "Yan 'Er, you know him?"
Yan 'er still shook her head. She really didn't know this dark-faced scholar who had a scar on his face and was covered in blood. There was not a single part of his body that wasn't wounded.
"Heavens …" The green-robed woman suddenly cried out in alarm.
Shi Jinwen and the other two looked over at the same time, not knowing her name.
The green-robed woman pointed at the swamp and the corpses on the ground, and said with a trembling voice, "He didn't kill all of them by himself, did he?"
The four suddenly went silent. After some time, the purple-robed woman said, "He did. His body was covered in blood and there wasn't a single part of his body that was unharmed. His head and body were covered in lightning scars. Clearly, he had just come out of the lightning lake …"
"I know who he is. He's that Rogue Cultivator 2705. No wonder he's ranked so high. He's really strong … "The red-robed woman finally reacted and exclaimed loudly.
…
Perhaps the alien cultivators had touched the demonic beasts in the Thunder Fog Forest, or perhaps there were other reasons. In this battle in the Thunder Fog Forest, the alien cultivators suffered a huge defeat. This area of alien cultivators abandoned their encampment in the Thunder Fog Forest and started to retreat elsewhere.
…
Yan City Immortal Jade House. This was not only the number one restaurant in Yan City, it was also the number one restaurant in the entire Tian Shang Empire.
Not only was the environment good, the spiritual energy was dense, and the view was wide. From the Yan City Immortal Jade House, one could directly see the Hundred Sect Alliance Contribution Points Board at the Yan City Plaza. Other than that, the Yan City Immortal Jade House also had a specialised trading hall.
The spoils of war between the Five Great Empires and the alien cultivators were naturally plentiful. A portion of the cultivators would go to the trading city square, while some would come to the Yan City Immortal Jade House to trade.
Recently, the alien cultivators in the Xing Han Empire had retreated from the Thunder Fog Forest and joined forces with the alien cultivators in the Tian Shang Empire. Naturally, the cultivators from the Five Great Empires also rushed towards the Yan City Hundred Sect Alliance encampment. This caused Yan City to become increasingly prosperous, and the Yan City Immortal Jade House became even more lively.
In order to attract more people here, the Immortal Jade House changed all ten floors into teahouses. This was a place where one could drink and chat. One could also skip the trading hall and directly trade some goods here.
This caused more and more cultivators to like coming here. They could chat and drink here freely.
Other than the war with the alien cultivators, the most talked about topic here was the Yan City Plaza's Hundred Sect Alliance Contribution Points Board. On the Hundred Sect Alliance's Contribution Points Board, the most discussed person was not the first ranked Great Evolution Sect's Xi Yixuan, nor was it the second and third ranked Heaven Seeking Palace's Feng Luojian and Gou Zihan. It was an unknown rogue cultivator, Rogue Cultivator 2705.
Half a year ago, Rogue Cultivator 2705 charged into the Hundred Sect Alliance Contribution Points Board like a strong dark horse. Not only that, he charged straight to the tenth place. In the following months, Rogue Cultivator 2705 slowly disappeared, and was surpassed by genius after genius.
Many people started to suspect whether Rogue Cultivator 2705 was lucky enough to kill an expert in the Great Circle of the Nihility God Stage, which was why he gained 9000 points. Until two months ago, Rogue Cultivator 2705 went berserk again, gaining over 3000 points in one go. With a total of 12076 points, he charged straight into the top 6.
The Hundred Sect Alliance Contribution Points Board was refreshed. Looking at Rogue Cultivator 2705, who was ranked sixth with 12076 points, the number of people who said that he was lucky gradually decreased.
Luck could be good once, but it couldn't be good forever. Moreover, many people saw Rogue Cultivator 2705's increase in points very clearly. It was said that his points increased slowly, and not all at once.
According to the Immortal Jade House's attendant, he was standing at the Yan City Plaza that day, staring at the Hundred Sect Alliance Contribution Points Board. He saw with his own eyes that Rogue Cultivator 2705's contribution points slowly rose, changing by a few hundred times in two hours.
At this moment, a few cultivators near the window were also discussing Rogue Cultivator 2705. When one of the cultivators repeated the words of the Immortal Jade House's attendant, another cultivator chuckled, "That's not possible. I can believe that his points changed by a few hundred times. After all, killing alien cultivators requires continuous accumulation. But you said that his points changed by a few hundred times in two hours. Please forgive me for not believing your words. This is simply too ridiculous. "
"Why is it not possible?" The cultivator who relayed the attendant's words was slightly unhappy, as though he was speaking nonsense.
The cultivator who said that it was impossible said calmly, "Think about it. If his points changed by a few hundred times in two hours, what does that mean? It means that this Rogue Cultivator 2705 was surrounded by hundreds of cultivators. Facing the encirclement of hundreds of cultivators, he still couldn't kill them all in one go, and needed to continuously kill them by a few hundred times. What does that mean? It means that this rogue cultivator wasn't very strong. For a rogue cultivator who wasn't very strong, to be surrounded by hundreds of people, and still be able to kill all the alien cultivators that surrounded him, is that possible? Were his opponents all pigs, waiting for him to kill them? "
The cultivator who relayed the attendant's words was stunned by the question, and muttered, "Now that you mention it, it doesn't seem very possible."
"Why is it not possible? I'm sure it's true. Not only is it true, this Rogue Cultivator 2705 hasn't even stepped into the Earth Realm. "A clear voice filled with dissatisfaction stood up.
This voice was too loud, and immediately attracted the attention of the crowd.
The one who spoke was a woman in a green dress. Seeing that everyone was looking at her, she simply said loudly, "I personally saw the battlefield where he fought. His surroundings were filled with the corpses of alien cultivators, and he himself was also heavily injured. Not only that, he even helped my Heaven Seeking Palace Pill Pagoda's Senior Uncle Jinwen to kill an expert in the Great Circle of the True Lake Stage. "
This green dressed woman was the one who went to the Thunder Fog Forest with Yan 'Er. She had always thought that Mo Wuji was Rogue Cultivator 2705.
"Who knows if you're speaking the truth? Many people say that they know 2705, but in the end, they still don't know him. "Someone in the crowd said.
There was no need to talk about Rogue Cultivator 2705's reputation, as long as a cultivator could enter the top 100 of the Hundred Sect Alliance's Contribution Points Board, they were all geniuses. Every cultivator who entered the top 100 of the Hundred Sect Alliance's Contribution Points Board had immense popularity in Yan City. Even if they entered the Immortal Jade House, the Immortal Jade House wouldn't charge them anything, and would even take pride in it.
Rogue Cultivator 2705 was ranked 6, so he was naturally a well-known figure in the Five Great Empires. Even an average sect head would have to stop and greet him. If one could befriend such a genius, no matter where they went, it would be a matter of pride.
Thus, many people wanted to befriend the geniuses on the Hundred Sect Alliance's Contribution Points Board, but most of the geniuses had names and surnames. Only Rogue Cultivator 2705 was nameless, and no one knew who he was. Precisely because of this, the number of people who knew Rogue Cultivator 2705 was the highest.
"I'm Heaven Seeking Palace's Dao Gate's inner disciple, Xue Tongsi. When the incident happened, not only was I present, but so was Senior Uncle Jinwen. Other than that, there was also my Heaven Seeking Palace's number one genius, Yan 'Er, and Great Evolution Sect's Ling Yizhen. That Rogue Cultivator 2705 even risked his life to save Yan 'Er once, so why would I lie? " The green dressed woman's face turned ugly. To actually say that she was like those people who pretended to know Rogue Cultivator 2705 was simply infuriating.
"This senior sister is indeed a Heaven Seeking Palace inner disciple, she wouldn't lie." Someone in the crowd recognised Xue Tongsi.
"Then may I ask senior sister Xue, what do you think of this Rogue Cultivator 2705 senior brother?" Another person in the crowd asked.
