Mo Wuji thanked Immortal Empress Wen Lan for her guidance. He answered, "Senior Sister Wen Lan, I am indeed acquainted with Lei Hongji. I really admire this person's aptitude. At the very least, it's much better than mine … "
"Wuji, how do you know that Lei Hongji's talent is better than yours? To be honest, although I can't see through the origins of your inheritance, I know that very few people in the Immortal World can compare to you in terms of aptitude. Otherwise, you wouldn't have stepped into the Celestial King Realm at such a young age. That Lei Hongji is at most around the same level as you. He hasn't even stepped into the Immortal King Stage. "Immortal Empress Wen Lan didn't wait for Mo Wuji to finish before asking doubtfully.
In his heart, Mo Wuji felt helpless. To say that his talent was comparable to Lei Hongji's would be overestimating him. Not to mention Lei Hongji, any random cultivator would have a better aptitude than him. This was because he didn't have any aptitude at all. In other words, he was a person without spiritual roots.
Shen Muqing, who was standing by the side, felt increasingly shocked. Back then, she knew that Mo Wuji wasn't simple. In reality, she wasn't wrong. How could Mo Wuji be simple? Even a Nine Star Genius would have to bow in front of Mo Wuji. Nai He had a great background, but on the transfer tower to the Broken World, no one dared to snatch her seat. It was all because of Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji was a Pill Emperor. Advancing to the Grand Luo Immortal Stage in such a short period of time was already unbelievable to her. But now, Mo Wuji actually stepped into the Immortal King Stage. She, Shen Muqing, was after all a Seven Star Genius. However, her cultivation speed was simply too horrible to look at.
She could not help but think of Murong Xiangyu. This woman had eyes but failed to see. She actually dumped a genius like Mo Wuji to suck up to some trash. If it was her, she wouldn't even have the time to protect him …
As Shen Muqing thought of this, she stole a glance at Mo Wuji. She knew that even though she wasn't ugly, it would still be difficult for Mo Wuji to remember her.
Shen Muqing was remorseful but she didn't know that Murong Xiangyu's cultivation level was slightly higher than Mo Wuji's. The other party had long been an Immortal King, and he might even be close to the intermediate stage of the Immortal King Realm.
Mo Wuji said honestly, "Because of some opportunities, I was able to step into the Immortal King Stage. On the other hand, Lei Hongji isn't much older than me, but his cultivation speed is much faster than mine. I suspect that if not for the sake of entering the fourth level of the Broken World, this person would have already stepped into the Immortal King Stage. Even so, the moment he exited the Broken World, he would immediately step into the Immortal King Stage. The reason why I know him so well is because we come from the same world of cultivation. "
"I see. Please continue." Immortal Empress Wen Lan nodded.
Wei Zidao was equally shocked as he had always suspected that Mo Wuji had yet to advance into the Immortal King Stage. It was just that his Dao wasn't comparable to Immortal Empress Wen Lan, so he wasn't able to see through Mo Wuji's true cultivation level. Thus, he didn't dare to confirm it. Only now did he know that Mo Wuji had just advanced into the Immortal King Stage. Clearly, one could see how powerful this sect head of his was. Back then, a cultivator who wasn't even at the Immortal King Stage forcefully brought them out of Sword Prison. Today, he even founded Ping Fan Immortal School.
Mo Wuji continued, "Lei Hongji is too selfish. I believe that with his strength, he might be able to move unhindered in the Immortal World, but he might not be as ambitious as the Immortal World. If the future of the Immortal World is placed on this person, I'm afraid it's like drinking poison to quench thirst. "
Mo Wuji's words were very clear. In the future, if there was something that could move Lei Hongji's heart, he might even lead the charge to destroy the Immortal World. As for protecting the Immortal World, that would simply be a joke.
Immortal Empress Wen Lan smiled faintly, "Wuji is worrying too much. If Lei Hongji has the ability to protect the Immortal World in the future, he would definitely not disregard the Immortal World. Because he isn't in that position now, you can only see his true nature. In the Immortal World, in the process of raising one's strength, everyone would have their own nature. They might even do some immoral things. But when faced with a major issue, or when the place of survival is about to be destroyed, I believe that anyone would know what to do. "
Immortal Empress Wen Lan didn't continue speaking. She believed that Mo Wuji wouldn't understand now. Only by reaching a certain height and standing in a certain position would one be able to understand these things. This wasn't just the major issue that she was talking about, it was a type of Dao.
Since Lei Hongji obtained his Dao in the Immortal World, he had to protect the Immortal World. Otherwise, he would be denying his own Dao.
Mo Wuji was slightly speechless. However, he didn't refute Immortal Empress Wen Lan's words. There was no need for him to go against Immortal Empress Wen Lan over such an illusory matter.
Originally, he wanted to say that Ji Yue was also selfish. But now, he no longer had any interest in talking about this woman.
"Actually, I believe that you, Wuji, are also qualified to be nurtured. Unfortunately, the Very High Heavens placed too much faith in the Dao of Changes." Immortal Empress Wen Lan sighed.
Luo Zizai, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said, "That's why you feel that Lei Hongji got lucky."
Mo Wuji jolted. What did that mean? Lei Hongji was chosen to be the Protector of the Immortal World and the Very High Heavens. Why would he be unhappy? Moreover, he didn't have any grudges with this Luo Zizai. Why would he be against him?
Immortal Empress Wen Lan hurriedly said, "Wuji, don't mind Immortal Friend Zizai's attitude. Because he has a good friend called Gui Jiancang."
Mo Wuji suddenly came to an understanding. Wasn't Gui Jiancang the Great Sword Path's Supreme Elder? In the end, he was killed by his Ping Fan. No wonder why this Heavenly Emperor Zizai was so indifferent towards him. So this was the problem.
"Don't worry. I won't have any other thoughts towards you because of Gui Jiancang. The enmity between sects has nothing to do with me. Since Gui Jiancang is in the Great Sword Path, he will have to accept his fate. I'm only speaking the truth. "Luo Zizai explained himself.
As for whether it was true or not, no one knew.
Immortal Empress Wen Lan continued, "Wuji, even though Immortal Friend Zizai was joking, it was also the truth. If Lei Hongji was taken away by the Very High Heavens, he would have endless cultivation resources. The Very High Heavens has the 10 God Stage Cultivation Holylands. I have a feeling that Lei Hongji would be able to overcome all obstacles in the shortest time possible and stand at the peak. However, I feel that your Dao is extraordinary and your talent is also extraordinary. Thus, I hope that we can do our best to help you step into the Immortal Emperor Stage in the shortest time possible. This is the second reason why I called you here today … "
Mo Wuji asked doubtfully, "Senior Sister Wen Lan? Didn't you say that Lei Hongji is the Protector of the Immortal World? Why are you still supporting me? "
Immortal Empress Wen Lan sighed, "Lei Hongji and Ji Yue are both nurtured by the Very High Heavens. Even though the Very High Heavens say that it's to protect the Immortal World and the Very High Heavens, But when that day comes, the Very High Heavens would no longer have the ability to take care of the Immortal World. At that time, they would definitely not allow Lei Hongji and Ji Yue to help the Immortal World. We are preparing for a rainy day. "
Mo Wuji came to an understanding, "Senior Sister Wen Lan, a few years ago, you said that you wanted to meet me. Could it be that you already had such a plan?"
Immortal Empress Wen Lan shook her head, "No. Back then, I only heard that your Pill Dao was astonishing, so I wanted to nurture you into an assistant. Even though the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance has many talented people in the Pill Dao, I really couldn't find anyone that I'm satisfied with. This time, you were able to fight to a draw with Lei Hongji. Only now did I realize that you're not just strong in alchemy. "
Mo Wuji snickered in his heart. A draw with Lei Hongji? Back then, Lei Hongji clearly couldn't beat him and ran away.
Immortal Empress Wen Lan seemed to sense Mo Wuji's state of mind. She said seriously, "Wuji, I met Lei Hongji alone before. During the battle against the Grand Luo Immortals, you did have the upper hand. But I'm sure that the moment Lei Hongji advances into the Immortal King Stage, his power would increase exponentially. At that time, I'm afraid that you wouldn't be a match for him. Moreover, when he fought with you, he didn't use his full strength. He didn't even use his killer move. This is something that you don't know. "
"Many thanks for Senior Sister Wen Lan's reminder." Mo Wuji bowed in gratitude.
Even though he believed that Lei Hongji definitely couldn't beat him, there was no need for him to say it here. Lei Hongji didn't use his killer move, but did that mean that he didn't? If he wasn't afraid of being surrounded in the fourth level of the Broken World, he still had his Wheel of Life and Death.
Seeing that Mo Wuji accepted it humbly, Wen Lan said in a satisfied tone, "Wuji, there's a problem. That cultivation holyland belongs to Immortal Friend Zizai. Besides all sorts of treasures, I can only provide you with all sorts of sacred arts and cultivation techniques. Thus, you need to go to Mahesvara Immortal Domain to cultivate. And Immortal Friend Zizai's only request is for you to take him as your master. "
When Shen Muqing heard this, she sighed in her heart. She believed that her ancestor didn't understand Mo Wuji. Firstly, Mo Wuji definitely wouldn't think that he wouldn't be able to match up to Lei Hongji after advancing to the Immortal King Stage. Secondly, Mo Wuji definitely wouldn't take Luo Zizai as his master. She had interacted with Mo Wuji many times, so her understanding of Mo Wuji was even more thorough than her ancestor.
Mo Wuji looked at Luo Zizai, who was stroking his beard, and felt slightly speechless. There was no need to talk about how his Ping Fan was a cultivation holyland. Even if it wasn't, he wouldn't take Luo Zizai as his master. If he took Luo Zizai as his master, what would his Ping Fan amount to? How would Wei Zidao and co. interact with each other?
"Many thanks Senior Sister Wen Lan, but I don't have any intentions of taking anyone as my master at the moment." Mo Wuji rejected her without any hesitation.
Immortal Empress Wen Lan jolted. From her perspective, any immortal in the Immortal World would need cultivation resources. Mo Wuji established Ping Fan for cultivation resources. In fact, Mo Wuji even destroyed the Great Sword Path for cultivation resources. Logically, Mo Wuji shouldn't have rejected her.
"Wuji, perhaps I didn't make myself clear. Immortal Friend Zizai's immortal essence pond holyland isn't any weaker than the Very High Heavens' Ten Great Cultivation Holylands. In fact, it might even surpass them. Coupled with my immortal herbs, with your talent, it wouldn't be impossible for you to step into the Immortal Emperor Stage within a thousand years, "Wen Lan hurriedly explained.
Mo Wuji stood up and clasped his fists towards Immortal Empress Wen Lan, "Many thanks for Senior Sister Wen Lan's advice and good intentions. However, I don't have any intentions of taking you as my master at the moment. In the future, if you need Mo Wuji's help, you only need to send me a message. Goodbye, Wuji. "
Mo Wuji bade his farewell. Wei Zidao and Tian Nini also stood up to bid their farewells.
"He really doesn't know how high the heavens are." After Mo Wuji and co. left, Luo Zizai snorted coldly.
