"Immortal Friend Mo, I didn't expect you to be an immortal array master." After being taught a lesson by Mo Wuji, Chen Jushan actually smiled and took the initiative to chat.
Mo Wuji said faintly, "There are many things that you didn't expect."
Mo Wuji didn't want to associate with a person like Chen Jushan. This was because he wasn't Murong Xiangyu's husband, and he didn't have a single shred of goodwill towards her. If he was really Yan Ye, then he might have some goodwill towards Murong Xiangyu. Just based on Chen Jushan's punch that heavily injured Murong Xiangyu, Mo Wuji would return it.
Facing Mo Wuji, Chen Jushan couldn't do anything even if he was unhappy.
The fog outside the hall was a little strange, and Mo Wuji could feel the danger within. After installing the defensive array of the hall, he immediately found the best spot in the hall to install a smaller defensive array. At the same time, he installed a concealment array within the defensive array.
In such a dangerous place, there was no need to be polite.
Seeing Mo Wuji install a defensive array and concealment array at a good spot in the hall, everyone else followed suit.
Even though the hall was huge, over 200 people were searching for a spot at the same time. Soon, the space in the hall was completely divided up. Those with weaker cultivation could only stay near the entrance of the hall.
Gu Zijian walked in front of Murong Xiangyu and said, "Xiangyu, previously, I really wasn't strong enough to stand up for you. Originally, I wanted to get a portion and give it to you after the matter is over. I didn't think that I wouldn't have to do anything."
No matter how bad Murong Xiangyu's EQ was, it shouldn't be so bad that she couldn't tell. She looked at Gu Zijian faintly and said, "Many thanks, Senior Brother Gu."
After saying that, she directly installed a concealment array at the spot that she was occupying. Even though Mo Wuji didn't place Chen Jushan in his eyes, and was even wary of Mo Wuji, Chen Jushan wasn't afraid of her. However, Chen Jushan was not afraid of her. Moreover, she could faintly feel a few strands of spiritual will surrounding her. The moment Mo Wuji wasn't here, she was afraid that she would be taken away immediately.
Thus, after Mo Wuji chose his spot, she immediately chose a spot beside Mo Wuji's.
Seeing that Murong Xiangyu did not continue to talk to him, Gu Zijian's eyes darkened. He did not continue to talk nonsense as he set up a concealment restriction at the place of his choice.
Mo Wuji was momentarily unable to find a way out of this place, and the other cultivators were similarly unable to find a way out as well.
…
The moment Mo Wuji entered the concealment restriction, he took out the immortal essence crystals and started cultivating. In next to no time, he noticed that the speed of his cultivation with Immortal Marrow Crystals was extremely swift indeed. Unfortunately, he had too few Immortal Marrow Crystals, and he only had a little over 300. So even if he exhausted all these Immortal Marrow Crystals, it might not be able to allow him to step into the intermediate-stage of the Mysterious Immortal Realm.
Mo Wuji didn't know how to leave this place so he could only sigh and stop cultivating. He took out a pile of Tier 5 immortal herbs and started concocting pills.
More than a month later, Mo Wuji kept his pill furnace with an ugly expression on his face. His Tier 5 and Tier 6 immortal herbs were almost depleted. Now, he was indeed able to concoct unique grade Tier 5 immortal pills. However, after more than a month and consuming close to a thousand Tier 6 immortal herbs, he was only able to concoct low-grade Tier 6 immortal pills. Moreover, he was able to concoct the easiest Tier 6 Immortal Copious Pill. He was still a long way from being able to concoct unique grade Tier 6 immortal pills.
As for concocting Tier 7 immortal pills, that was still too far away …
Ever since he started learning pill concoction and opened his own Pill Dao, Mo Wuji had never met with any difficulties in advancing his Pill Dao. The only exception was when he advanced from a Tier 4 Pill King to a Tier 5 Pill King. However, that wasn't as much as advancing to a Tier 6 Pill King. Moreover, he still couldn't be considered a Tier 6 Pill King.
Mo Wuji thought about his own path of cultivation. Before he advanced to the Heavenly Immortal Stage, his path of cultivation was smooth sailing. The hardest part was actually when he opened his meridians. After he opened his meridians, he never met with any bottlenecks in his cultivation.
If there was a bottleneck, it would be that he never had enough resources. As long as he had enough resources, he would be able to advance to a higher level.
It was precisely because of this mindset that he was careless when he advanced to the Heavenly Immortal Stage. He didn't even prepare the Tribulation Crossing Pill. In the end, he almost failed to advance to the Heavenly Immortal Stage. Or rather, if he wasn't lucky enough to meet the Three-Eyed Dove, he would have already failed.
Ever since then, he had prepared large amounts of immortal pills and resources for every advancement. When he advanced to the Xuan Immortal Stage, he used six unique grade Xuan Crossing Pills at once. It could be said that if he wasn't a Pill King himself, who would be able to consume pills like him? If it was any other cultivator, they would have been stuck at the Golden Immortal stage. Otherwise, he would try his best to gather the Profound Crossing Pellets.
At the thought of this, Mo Wuji's heart turned vigilant. He actually didn't pay much attention to the problems he encountered during his first advancement to the Heavenly Immortal Stage. Later on, because he was an Elixir King, every advancement came naturally. In reality, there was a huge hidden danger. If it was already so difficult for him to advance to the Xuan Immortal Stage, then what would he do when he advanced to the Grand Yi Immortal Stage or even the Immortal King Stage?
Was it really enough to have enough cultivation resources?
This time, when he faced the same problem as when he advanced to the Heavenly Immortal Stage, he was even more alarmed. He discovered that no matter if it was his path of cultivation or the path of alchemy, after reaching a certain level, they would stagnate and then become more and more difficult.
Advancing to the Profound Immortal Stage required six Profound Crossing Pills, so how many Grand Yi True Pills were needed to advance to the Grand Yi Immortal Stage? Ten or a hundred? Then what about advancing to the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage or the Allheaven Supreme Immortal Stage?
Mo Wuji didn't even dare to think about it. Even if he used a whole basket of pills and advanced successfully, so what? As a pill refiner, Mo Wuji was clearer than anyone else about the side effects of pills.
Pills would form pill poison and consuming too many of them wasn't a good thing. It could even restrain one's spirit channels and weaken one's spiritual roots and perception.
Regardless of whether it was because he didn't have enough immortal herbs or because his cultivation level wasn't high enough, Mo Wuji didn't want to continue trying. He used close to a thousand Tier 6 immortal herbs and still failed to advance to the Tier 6 Pill King Stage. Other than those extremely wealthy pill refiners, no pill refiner would be so extravagant.
He only used less than 300 immortal herbs to advance to the Tier 5 Pill King Stage and still failed to advance to the Tier 6 Pill King Stage. Then how many Tier 7 immortal herbs would he need to advance to the Tier 7 Pill Emperor Stage? There was no need to talk about thousands, even a thousand would be enough to bankrupt an average sect.
And the gap between a Tier 7 Pill Emperor and a Tier 6 Pill King was not comparable to the gap between a Tier 6 Pill King and a Tier 5 Pill King. The difference in difficulty might be hundreds or even thousands of times greater.
Mo Wuji sighed. He had said too much previously. No wonder Pill Emperors were so rare and so valuable. So the difficulty of advancing to the Pill Emperor Stage was not something he could imagine.
After cleaning up a little, Mo Wuji walked out of the concealment array.
The moment he came out, Mo Wuji was slightly stunned. He knew that there were 230 over people in the hall but there were only 20 people left.
Where were the rest? Mo Wuji extended his spiritual will out and the fog was still there.
"Senior Brother Mo, you're out." A medium built and ordinary looking young cultivator hurried to greet Mo Wuji when he saw him come out.
Mo Wuji asked curiously, "Immortal Friend Zuo, why are there only these few people? Where are the rest? "
Mo Wuji knew Zuo Yixian. He was from Yong Ying Immortal Domain and was a decent person. The reason why he could obtain over 50 Tier 7 immortal herbs was mainly because Zuo Yixian stood up for him.
"The fog here will dissipate after a period of time. The rest of the people left after seeing the fog dissipate," Zuo Yixian hurried to explain.
"Then why are you guys still here?" Mo Wuji was even more confused. He could understand why Murong Xiangyu didn't leave. Murong Xiangyu had the seven pages of the Book of Luo on her so she didn't dare to leave alone. Mo Wuji didn't really understand why the rest of the people didn't leave.
Zuo Yixian waved his hand and the rest of the cultivators came over. He then said to Mo Wuji, "These are all cultivators from Yong Ying Immortal Domain. Other than a portion of the people from Yong Ying Immortal Domain who left with Supreme Dao Sect's Gui Yi, a portion of the people from Yong Ying Immortal Domain stayed behind to follow me. I wanted to greet you after you came out of your seclusion. I didn't expect that the fog would recover so quickly after it dissipated. Thereafter, the fog continued to dissipate and recover. None of those who left returned. We are fortunate that we didn't leave. Otherwise, we might not have been able to return. "
Mo Wuji instantly understood Zuo Yixian's meaning. If Murong Xiangyu didn't leave because she didn't dare to, then Zuo Yixian didn't leave because he was worried that Mo Wuji wouldn't know that everyone else had left while he was behind closed doors.
Mo Wuji patted Zuo Yixian's shoulder and said, "Many thanks. I, Mo Wuji, will befriend Brother Zuo. I still have some face in Sharphorn Immortal Ruins. At the same time, I opened a small pill house called Tian Ji Pill Court. If Brother Zuo needs any help in the future, you can look for me at Tian Ji Pill Court. "
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Zuo Yixian replied excitedly. Regardless of Mo Wuji's origins, Zuo Yixian already knew about Mo Wuji's performance. Even his father, Sea Canopy Immortal City's Castellan Zuo Qianwei, might not be as famous as Mo Wuji when he came to Sharphorn Immortal Ruins. How could befriending someone with such a strong backing be good for him?
"Everyone, there's no need to worry. If others can walk out, I can bring everyone out. Continuing to stay here is indeed not a long-term solution. Let me take a look first. "Mo Wuji clasped his fists towards the surrounding cultivators.
With that, Mo Wuji walked towards the array gate. Before he could open the defensive array, he saw the fog outside receding like a receding tide.
Some corpses of dead cultivators appeared on the ground. From their clothes, Mo Wuji could tell that many of these dead cultivators were the ones who shared the immortal essence crystals with him. Now, they had all turned into corpses.
Without exception, all the storage rings on these cultivators had disappeared.
"Big Brother Mo, the fog here is like this. After a period of time, it will recede and return very quickly." Zuo Yixian saw that Mo Wuji was observing the situation outside, so he walked over and said.
Because Mo Wuji befriended him, he directly addressed Mo Wuji as Big Brother. To be able to befriend a big brother that could suppress a Nine Star Genius was an honour for him, Zuo Yixian.
"I didn't move … I didn't move …" Another figure stumbled over from afar. It was exactly the same as the fella that Mo Wuji saw previously.
Mo Wuji was already prepared this time. Before this fella's life force completely disappeared, he took a step forward. His spirit storage channel's spiritual will directly protected this cultivator's dissipating primordial spirit. At the same time, his vitality channel also sent some life force over to stabilise this fella's life.
