Mo Wuji's hand paused as he instantly retracted his halberd light. This was his territory so he wasn't afraid that Bai Ye would escape.
The instant the halberd radiance disappeared, Bai Ye's split body instantly regenerated. However, Bai Ye, who was standing in front of Mo Wuji, had a face as white as a sheet of paper. At this moment, Mo Wuji didn't even need to use the deathtrap array to kill Bai Ye.
"Tell me, where is the exit?" Mo Wuji asked coldly. If Bai Ye was lying, Mo Wuji would not hesitate to turn him into dust.
"If you promise not to kill me, I will immediately tell you how to leave the Sword Prison." Bai Ye's voice sounded a little faint. Evidently, his body had only recovered on the surface and he was still far from being fully recovered.
Mo Wuji said faintly, "Tell me how to leave Sword Prison and I won't kill you. If you don't want to say it or you don't believe me, then don't say it. "
The moment Bai Ye heard Mo Wuji's words, he knew that he had no other choice. Ever since he started cultivating, he had experienced countless dangers. How could he not know what to do now? He could only bet on Mo Wuji's character. "The way to leave Sword Prison is Sword Qi River. I feel that the sword qi whirlpool is also the way to leave Sword Prison. However, to enter the sword qi whirlpool, one has to be at least in the advanced God Physique Stage. Therefore, I believe that the only place to leave Sword Prison is Sword Qi River. "
Bai Ye said all these in a single breath.
Mo Wuji said coldly, "Are you lying to me? Even Wei Zidao couldn't enter the Sword Qi River, so who could leave the Sword Prison? How did you know? "
Bai Ye said sincerely, "I'm proficient in the Dao of Divination. Back then, I predicted that the Vine Mountain of Safety would face a calamity, which was why I left. Thereafter, I deduced that Sword Qi River was the exit of Sword Prison. That's why I trained my body crazily. I wanted to advance to the late-stage God Physique Stage and enter Sword Qi River. "
"One has to be in the late God Physique Stage to enter Sword Qi River?" Mo Wuji frowned and asked.
Initially, he doubted Bai Ye's words. Mo Wuji had been to Sword Qi River before. He only took half a bucket of water and was almost torn apart by the sword qi of Sword Qi River. If he were to enter the Sword Qi River, then wouldn't he die for sure?
Bai Ye answered, "I'm not very sure. I feel that as long as I reach God Physique Level 4, I would be able to take a look at Sword Qi River. Saying it's a late-stage Divine Body is just more reliable. "
After Bai Ye finished speaking, he looked at Mo Wuji calmly. What he said was equivalent to not saying anything at all. In Sword Prison, who could cultivate their fleshly body to the intermediate or advanced stage of God Physique? His only chance of survival depended on Mo Wuji keeping his promise.
"You can leave. I believe your words," Mo Wuji said calmly.
With that, Mo Wuji didn't even move. The surrounding deathtrap array disappeared without a trace. Bai Ye appeared on the plaza once again and the ten over people by the side of the plaza were staring at them in astonishment.
Bai Ye's heart jolted. What a terrifying array dao control. The most powerful Immortal Array Master he had ever seen required array flags or Spiritual Force techniques to control a Dharma Array. He was sure that Mo Wuji didn't use his spiritual will, but this array was soundlessly opened. If he, Bai Ye, also knew such methods...
"Sect Head Mo is truly remarkable. I, Bai Ye, am willing to join your sect and listen to your orders." Not only did Bai Ye not leave, he bowed respectfully and said.
He didn't want to miss out on Mo Wuji's array dao control and that woman's method of advancing here. Moreover, he believed that Mo Wuji was a person that was easier to control. If he was in Mo Wuji's shoes, he definitely wouldn't have held back. The moment Mo Wuji said those words, he would immediately kill him. The fact that this Sect Head Mo didn't kill him meant that his dao heart wasn't firm. As long as he followed such a person, he would get rid of him sooner or later.
"Scram. If you don't leave in three breaths' time, then you don't need to leave." Mo Wuji shouted coldly.
Bai Ye's body stiffened. Under normal circumstances, it was rare for him to make a wrong judgement. He thought that Mo Wuji was the kind of fella that could be persuaded by reason but not by force. He didn't expect that he would actually spit out a nail.
Very soon, he understood that if he didn't leave, he really wouldn't be able to leave. At this instant, why would Bai Ye continue to analyse and deduce? He hurriedly retreated and charged into the boundless sword qi of Sword Prison.
Even though it was exactly as he guessed, this Sect Head Mo easily dealt with Bai Ye, Wei Zidao's heart still sunk. He originally wanted to join Ping Fan. Now that Mo Wuji didn't even accept Bai Ye, how could Wei Zidao accept him? Previously, he treated Mo Wuji very viciously.
He decided that after he recovered some of his strength, he would leave immediately. Rather than being told to scram by Mo Wuji like Bai Ye, he might as well leave some face for himself.
"Su Zi 'An greets Sect Head Mo."
"Cha Rui greets Sect Head Mo."
…
The moment Bai Ye left, the remaining cultivators on the plaza all came forward to greet him.
"Are you all here to join my Ping Fan?" Mo Wuji's gaze swept across the crowd.
"Yes, we plead for Sect Head Mo to accept us." Su Zi 'An said respectfully.
"Sect Head, when Bai Ye came, Junior Sister Qingru said that disciples who wanted to join Ping Fan should come over to her side. They should have thought that Bai Ye would win. They didn't expect Sect Head to return in time. "Seeing that everyone wanted to join Ping Fan, Fei Ling said.
Mo Wuji came to Sword Prison to save Han Qingru. Naturally, he knew of Han Qingru's future status in Ping Fan. If not for the fact that his cultivation and power far surpassed Han Qingru's, he really wanted to call Han Qingru Senior Sister. However, calling Han Qingru Senior Sister would be too obvious of a bootlicker.
The reason why he came out to say this was because he was worried that Han Qingru would be too kind to say this. What he didn't know was that even if he didn't say it, Han Qingru would.
If it was back in the Corner of Yong Ying, Han Qingru might have let it go. After experiencing so many things, Han Qingru was very clear about what she should and shouldn't say.
"Yes, Wuji. Just now, there were indeed three people who weren't willing to join Ping Fan." Han Qingru also walked over.
Mo Wuji's gaze swept across the crowd, "Which three of you aren't willing to join Ping Fan? Please leave. We don't need you here."
Three cultivators whose bodies were covered in injuries walked out with their heads lowered. They didn't say much as they clasped their fists towards Mo Wuji before turning and leaving. The three of them were clear that it wasn't easy for them to get out of the Vine Mountain of Safety. They were probably going to perish under the sword qi of Sword Prison.
Mo Wuji didn't have a single shred of pity. What was the point of having disciples who couldn't provide timely help to the sect? Take him into the sect and respect him like a father?
"Many thanks Sect Head Mo for saving us." Wei Zidao had also recovered some energy. He stood up, clasped his fists and was about to leave the defensive array.
However, Mo Wuji said, "Brother Zidao, if you are willing to join my Ping Fan, you can stay. Of course, you will need to swear not to do anything that would harm Ping Fan."
In reality, among Pang Hong, Wei Zidao and Shang Hegao, Mo Wuji was most willing to get close to Wei Zidao.
Humans are selfish by nature. Wei Zidao's actions weren't wrong from his point of view. According to Wei Zidao's thinking, if he didn't take back the land, then Pang Hong and Shang Hegao wouldn't cooperate with him. In Wei Zidao's eyes, after taking back the land, he would be able to obtain large amounts of Sword Qi River water and even recover. Offending someone he just met wouldn't be a big deal.
"Sect Head Mo." Wei Zidao looked at Mo Wuji in shock.
Mo Wuji didn't say anything as he waited for Wei Zidao's decision. Taking in Wei Zidao was firstly because Wei Zidao was a decent person. Secondly, Wei Zidao was in the advanced Immortal Emperor Stage and was only one step away from becoming a Grand Emperor. Once he left and established Ping Fan, Ping Fan would need more than one Grand Emperor.
"Wei Zidao is willing to join Ping Fan. From today onwards, Wei Zidao swears not to do anything that would harm Ping Fan and not to become enemies with Sect Head Mo. If I go against this oath, my inner demons will invade my body and I will die under the Lightning Calamity. "Wei Zidao reacted and swore without hesitation.
After being trapped in the Sword Prison for so many years, how could Wei Zidao not know what to do? If he couldn't leave, what was the difference between swearing or not swearing? If he could leave just by swearing, he wouldn't mind even if he was a little more vicious.
Moreover, he had no intention of going against the oath he swore. Such an oath wouldn't affect him at all.
Mo Wuji said with satisfaction, "From today onwards, Brother Zidao will be the Right Protector Revered Lord of Ping Fan. If we can leave this place, I will definitely think of a way to help Brother Zidao step into the Grand Emperor Stage."
Wei Zidao joining Ping Fan was very meaningful to Mo Wuji. For Wei Zidao to have such power in the Sword Prison, the moment he leaves Sword Prison, he definitely wouldn't be a match for an average late stage Immortal Emperor. Moreover, Wei Zidao's oath was very opportunistic as he added another sentence to not become enemies with Mo Wuji.
"Yes, Sect Head." Wei Zidao had already thought through the pros and cons of this matter. Since he had joined Ping Fan, he was a member of Ping Fan. Before he entered the Sword Prison, he was a rogue cultivator. The reason why he didn't join a sect was because he was afraid of the restrictions of a sect.
Fortunately, he was now the Right Protector Revered Lord and there was only a Sect Head in front of him. Thus, he had a lot of freedom. Even the Left Protector Revered Lord was the same as him.
Mo Wuji's gaze swept across the rest of them, "My Ping Fan has yet to establish a sect. Once we leave Sword Prison, Ping Fan will become the number one sect in the Immortal World. Those who are willing to join Ping Fan, make your stance clear. Those who aren't willing can also stand on this plaza. Even though it can't be compared to the Vine Mountain of Safety, it's still a thousand times better than the other places in Sword Prison. "
Joining Ping Fan was the only option. Including Su Zi 'An, none of the other six had any objections. All six of them swore that they would never betray Ping Fan.
Mo Wuji nodded his head. These people had stayed in Sword Prison for such a long time that they knew how terrifying Sword Prison was. If it was him, he wouldn't have such thoughts even if he spent thousands of years in Sword Prison.
"Sect Head, the four of us were originally from Tian Ji Sect. It was just that Tian Ji Sect was destroyed and we were thrown into Sword Prison. This was why we didn't dare to reveal our origins. Now that Sect Head is here, Su Zi 'An doesn't dare to continue hiding it. " After Su Zi 'An brought the other three people from Tian Ji Sect to join Ping Fan, he decided to reveal his origins.
"You guys are from Tian Ji Sect?" Mo Wuji asked in astonishment.
