Once again, Mo Wuji stopped. In front of him were two corpses. These two corpses had been dead for god knows how many years, but the faint golden glow in their bones was still very obvious.
The two corpses were tens of meters apart. Even though they no longer had any flesh or primordial spirit, their empty eyes seemed to be staring at each other.
One of the corpses had a huge axe embedded in its throat to the left of its chest. The axe was so deep that it was embedded in its bones. The other corpse had a Wolf Fang Mace pierced through its lower abdomen. It was similarly filled with baleful aura.
These were two immortal equipment that surpassed Grade 9. Mo Wuji took in a deep breath. He had encountered many similar situations along the way. Under normal circumstances, he would directly avoid these magic treasures and corpses.
However, he knew that with his current strength, he wouldn't be able to touch them even if he wanted to. As long as he got close, he would be torn apart by the killing intent.
This time, Mo Wuji swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He stared at the finger of the corpse with the Wolf Fang Mace pierced through its lower abdomen. It was an exquisite ring. One could only imagine how many good things would be in the ring of such an expert.
Previously, it wasn't that Mo Wuji didn't think of obtaining those rings. It was because the killing intent of the corpses he met along the way was too strong. He couldn't even get close to any of them.
Similarly, he couldn't get close to this corpse. However, the ring was right in front of him.
"Da Huang, go and see if you can get the ring back. Remember not to force yourself." Mo Wuji repeatedly instructed Da Huang. Then, he took out his Half Moon Weighted Halberd and guarded it nervously by the side.
Da Huang responded with an 'En' and carefully walked to the side of the corpse. Mo Wuji saw that Da Huang's finger was about to touch the ring. However, it wasn't affected at all. His heart was filled with anticipation.
"Boom!" Just as Da Huang's finger touched the ring, a terrifying killing intent surged into the sky. It was as though Da Huang was electrocuted. Like a kite with a broken string, Da Huang was sent flying and landed on the ground.
Mo Wuji was anxious as he rushed over.
A half-inch deep groove appeared on Da Huang's chest, as if it was naturally there. Da Huang's aura was extremely weak.
Mo Wuji hurried to send a green crystal into Da Huang's body. Da Huang stood up, "My lord, that ring is too scary. I can't get it. This person is much more powerful than the master who refined me. "
"Forget it, we don't want this thing." Mo Wuji said anxiously. He really didn't dare to accept it. Something that even Da Huang couldn't get, he shouldn't even think about it. Not only did he not get the storage ring, he even used up a green crystal. Not only that, he even injured Da Huang. To Mo Wuji, the gains did not make up for the losses. Including the green crystals in Da Huang's body, Mo Wuji only had three of them.
Once the three green crystals were used up, not only would he lose Da Huang's protection, he would also lose a friend. In Mo Wuji's heart, Da Huang was already a friend of his.
Having learnt his lesson, Mo Wuji no longer coveted anything here. He only wanted to bring Da Huang to find a way out of this place.
Mo Wuji and Da Huang carefully wandered around for seven to eight days. However, in this place, other than corpses, there were all sorts of magic treasures and killing intent.
On this day, Mo Wuji finally felt a trace of concentrated immortal spiritual energy. No, it should be more accurate to say that it was elemental energy that was similar to the green crystal.
"Da Huang, do you feel a type of elemental energy that is similar to the green crystal?" Mo Wuji thought that his senses were wrong. He turned to ask Da Huang who was following closely behind him.
Da Huang's low and muffled voice could be heard, "Yes, I did feel it. It's like, like …"
Da Huang thought for a while before saying, "It's like the elemental energy in the surroundings when I was refined. However, it wasn't as concentrated."
"Let's go take a look." Mo Wuji hastened his footsteps.
The further Mo Wuji and Da Huang walked, the more immortal spiritual energy there was. Along the way, there seemed to be more corpses. Mo Wuji and Da Huang tried their best to avoid these corpses. No matter how strong the magic treasures around these corpses were, they didn't touch them.
Another three days passed and Mo Wuji finally came to a stop. He finally saw the staircase.
Logically speaking, he had been looking for the staircase. Since the Gods Tower was a tower, there should be many levels. As long as he found the staircase, he would be able to leave this level. Now that he saw the staircase, he should be happy. However, Mo Wuji only felt puzzled and confused.
He had just entered the Gods Tower. Logically speaking, he should be at the lowest level of the tower. Since he found the staircase, he would naturally head up to the second level. However, the staircase that appeared in front of him was from the top to the bottom. The staircase extended downwards, and his spiritual will was unable to reach the end.
Could it be that he was at the highest level of the Gods Tower?
Mo Wuji simply couldn't understand. He didn't continue thinking about it. Regardless of whether he was at the highest level of the Gods Tower or not, he didn't want to continue staying here. This level was simply too dangerous.
The treasures on this level were as plentiful as the hairs on a cow. Every single one of them could cause huge waves in the Immortal World. The pity was that these treasures were like the Moon in the Well to him.
Besides this staircase, there was also a circular energy gathering array beside the staircase. Mo Wuji finally understood why the elemental energy around him was so weak. It was all attracted by this energy gathering array.
Mo Wuji cautiously approached the energy gathering array. This energy gathering array didn't have any means of attack. Not only that, there was a type of elemental energy similar to the green crystal. It was much more suitable for cultivation than the immortal spiritual energy.
Mo Wuji condensed his spiritual eye. After realising that there was indeed no danger in this energy gathering array, he gritted his teeth and stepped into the array.
An even denser elemental energy surged towards him. Mo Wuji took in a deep breath. A place like this was naturally suitable for cultivation. This was the elemental energy converted from the green crystal.
"Da Huang, I want to cultivate here for a period of time. Help me protect me from the outside." Mo Wuji decided that he wouldn't miss out on such a good place.
He had a feeling that cultivating here for a year would be comparable to cultivating in other places for tens or even hundreds of years.
When Mo Wuji started to circulate his Immortal Mortal Technique in reverse, he realised that he had greatly underestimated the effects of cultivating here.
It wasn't because the elemental energy here was dense. It was because the grade of the elemental energy here was even better than high grade immortal crystals. Even though the elemental energy here wasn't dense, and was even slightly weak, the immortal elemental energy converted from the weak elemental energy quickly filled up Mo Wuji's meridians. Even with Mo Wuji's 108 meridians' circulation, he was still unable to fully utilise the elemental energy here.
This was the first time Mo Wuji was unable to utilise the surrounding elemental energy to cultivate.
Time passed by slowly. This was the first time Mo Wuji's cultivation level rose so quickly after he advanced to the Grand Yi Immortal Stage.
He reached the intermediate Grand Yi Immortal Stage in the blink of an eye. In less than a month, he touched the bottleneck of the advanced Grand Yi Immortal Stage.
Six months later, Mo Wuji reached the Great Circle of the advanced Grand Yi Immortal Stage. He didn't even use the Immortal Cleansing Grand Zhi Pill to step into the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage …
Something's not right. Mo Wuji stopped cultivating. How did he suddenly advance into the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage?
Logically speaking, advancing from the Grand Yi Immortal Stage to the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage should be accompanied by lightning tribulation. However, he didn't feel any lightning tribulation. Could it be that he had fallen into an illusion when he entered this place?
At the thought of an illusion, Mo Wuji's heart jolted. He hurriedly stood up and punched out.
The explosive immortal elemental energy was many times stronger than before. This was indeed the power of a Grand Zhi Immortal. His sea of consciousness had also expanded by quite a bit.
Looking at Da Huang who was still guarding outside, Mo Wuji's expression changed. He didn't know whether he should continue cultivating. This place was simply too strange. All sorts of magic treasures were terrifyingly strong. The killing intent was so strong that it could even turn into a spirit. Even his cultivation speed was ridiculous.
All these things aside, the crucial point was that he didn't need lightning tribulation to advance from the Grand Yi Immortal Stage to the Grand Zhi Immortal Stage. He didn't use the Immortal Cleansing Grand Zhi Pill. He suspected that this was an illusion. However, the real power and expanded sea of consciousness told him that this wasn't an illusion.
Should he continue cultivating? Just as Mo Wuji thought of this, he saw that the staircase was starting to fade. It seemed like it was going to disappear soon.
At this moment, Mo Wuji didn't dare to continue cultivating. He leapt up and charged towards the staircase. At the same time, he shouted, "Da Huang, follow me closely. Let's hurry and leave this place."
No matter how good it was to cultivate here, he couldn't stay here. This place could take his little life at any time.
The instant he stepped on the staircase, Mo Wuji was prepared to take out his Book of Luo. The moment he stepped on the staircase, he knew that he was thinking too much. This staircase was very safe. Step by step, it wasn't any different from an ordinary staircase.
Mo Wuji counted. There were roughly over a hundred steps. When he stepped on the last step, he was already standing on flat ground with Da Huang.
When he turned back, the staircase had disappeared. In other words, he couldn't go back even if he wanted to.
Mo Wuji didn't care about whether he could go up or not. What was the use of going up? Anyway, he wouldn't be able to obtain anything with his current strength. If he wasn't careful, he might even be killed. What he was worried about was whether this level would be the same as the level above. There would be danger everywhere.
Also, where was the immortal sealing array that the white moustached fishing elder mentioned? Or rather, which level of the Gods Tower was it at?
Mo Wuji took out two tokens. One was the Immortal Seeking Token, and the other was the Universal Peak Token.
According to the hint from the Immortal Seeking Token, this token was left behind by a person called Ji Feiqian. Ji Feiqian didn't know where he picked up the Heaven Seeking Staircase. However, he didn't know why this Heaven Seeking Staircase appeared in the low level world, Zhen Xing's Heaven Seeking Palace. There was also an unknown white moustached fishing elder guarding it.
The person that the white moustached fishing elder asked him to save was also surnamed Ji. Her name was Ji Li. Mo Wuji didn't know how Ji Feiqian and Ji Li were related.
Regardless, since he was already in the Gods Tower, he had to go and take a look. He said that he would try his best. If he really couldn't save her, then he couldn't be blamed. After all, this Gods Tower was too scary. He almost died a few times after circling around the tower.
