"This is a small matter. Brother Mo, feel free to leave. I will help you arrange everything here. Even Xiong Xiuzhu and Tao Ao's living quarters, I will help you rebuild it, "Wu Kai said confidently.
Mo Wuji took out six Energy Condensing Pills. This was just a small matter, so he took the initiative to build a house for Tao Ao and his wife.
At this moment, Xiong Xiuzhu finally reacted. She knew that Mo Wuji could provide her with a task. At least it gave her hope of survival. Otherwise, she and Tao Ao would not be able to survive.
There was no need to talk about living in a normal city. The surrounding city squares of the Formless Blade Sect were all for cultivators. There were also many mortals who could not cultivate. However, they had their own methods, and they had already formed a circle. She, Xiong Xiuzhu, was just a mortal. She couldn't do anything, and she had to take care of Tao Ao in this place. It was impossible for her to enter this circle and survive.
And the nearest mortal city to leave the Formless Blade Sect was at least a few thousand miles away. The crux of the matter was that these few thousand miles were desolate and uninhabited places. A mortal like her would not be able to reach them.
"Thank you benefactor for saving my life," Xiong Xiuzhu did not care about what Mo Wuji wanted her to do. As long as she had something to do, it was fine.
Mo Wuji nodded, "Go back and pack up, then move to my place. I live beside the Blood Lotus Lake. Your job is to take care of my sister, Yan 'Er. Because Yan 'Er suffered some trauma, she sometimes behaves like a child. You will need to take care of her. "
Hearing that she was only going to take care of one person, Xiong Xiuzhu was extremely grateful. At least it would not be as tough as her current situation.
…
Xiong Xiuzhu arrived very quickly. Mo Wuji returned to his living quarters and told Yan 'Er that he would be going out for a period of time. Xiong Xiuzhu brought her disabled husband over.
Xiong Xiuzhu's husband, Tao Ao, had an average build and looked quite handsome. However, his legs were broken and he was curled up in a wheelchair. Tao Ao did not look like someone who liked to cause trouble. Mo Wuji guessed that his legs were broken because someone bullied him for no reason.
Mo Wuji could barely protect himself now. Naturally, he would not ask Tao Ao what happened to his legs. It was not easy for mortals to survive among cultivators. He had also taken a look at Tao Ao's broken leg. With his current abilities, it was impossible for him to heal it.
Tao Ao and his wife had never thought of asking Mo Wuji to treat their legs. They were already very grateful to Mo Wuji for taking them in and doing such an easy job.
Three days later, Yan 'Er had gradually accepted the patient Xiong Xiuzhu. Tao Ao and Xiong Xiuzhu's residence was also built with Wu Kai's help.
Mo Wuji was finally able to leave his residence in peace. Under such circumstances, he did not dare to relax for even a single day. Whether it was to take care of Yan 'Er or to protect his own life, he had to work hard to strengthen himself.
…
When Mo Wuji arrived at the Formless Blade Sect's Hall of Affairs, the hall was already packed with people. Mo Wuji knew that a service disciple like him did not have the qualifications to take on any sect missions. His idea was to see if he could follow behind those disciples who had taken on missions.
Mo Wuji had been to the Hall of Affairs more than once. Not long ago, he was here to concoct pills for Pill Master Shi.
Today, when Mo Wuji entered the Hall of Affairs, he felt that something was strange. In the past, when he came here, many disciples would be in a hurry. They would be forming teams, accepting missions, collecting contribution points or buying pills. However, what Mo Wuji saw was completely different. On the contrary, many disciples were gathered together, discussing something in groups of three to five.
"Junior apprentice brother Mo, congratulations." Mo Wuji wanted to hear what these people were talking about, but he heard someone call out to him.
It was an old acquaintance, Fei Bingzhu from the spiritual herbs warehouse. Back then, he was fortunate that Fei Bingzhu sold him a Water Velvet Vine. What was rare was that Fei Bingzhu did not take advantage of him and sold it to him at a normal price.
Now that Fei Bingzhu congratulated him, it was obvious that he knew that Pill Master Shi had succeeded in concocting pills.
"I can only say that my luck is not bad. Pill Master Shi's Pill Dao is too amazing." Mo Wuji laughed and walked over.
When he was near Fei Bingzhu, he whispered, "Senior apprentice brother Fei, I saw so many people gathered together today. What are they discussing?"
"Our Formless Blade Sect's Formless Blade Mountain has opened. You know of the Formless Blade Mountain right? Even the Heavenly Temple's Heavenly Herb Mountain might not be able to compare to our Formless Blade Mountain. The Formless Blade Mountain has not been opened for close to a thousand years. How many good things do you think will be inside? Unfortunately, this has nothing to do with us. "Fei Bingzhu sighed as he spoke.
Mo Wuji finally understood why these people were gathered together to discuss the Formless Blade Mountain. If he had the qualifications to enter the Formless Blade Mountain that had not opened for a thousand years, he would also be secretly discussing it with others.
"Senior apprentice brother Fei, since the Formless Blade Mountain has not opened for a thousand years, why did it suddenly open?" Even though Mo Wuji knew that he did not have the qualifications to enter the Formless Blade Mountain, he could not help but ask a few questions.
Fei Bingzhu pointed to the sky and said in a low voice, "Ten years ago, the first level of the Five Elements Desolate Domain opened. The Five Great Empires all wanted to get the most out of it, so they fought each other. In the end, both sides suffered heavy losses. In the end, the Five Great Empires decided to compete for the resources in the first level of the Five Elements Desolate Domain. "
"What is the Five Elements Desolate Domain?" Mo Wuji was even more confused.
Fei Bingzhu explained patiently, "You're a new service disciple, so it's normal that you don't know. Do you know that our Five Great Empires have very few experts who have entered the third stage of the Heaven Realm? There aren't even any Heaven level sects? "
Mo Wuji nodded, "I've heard of this before. Does this have anything to do with the Five Elements Desolate Domain?"
Fei Bingzhu said, "Of course it's related. I heard that the Five Elements Desolate Domain cuts off the spiritual energy of the Five Great Empires. With the resources of the Five Great Empires, it is very difficult to advance to the third stage of the Heaven Realm. Over the years, those who were able to advance to the third stage of the Heaven Realm were all talented people. Even so, they could only linger around the first of the three stages of the Heaven Realm. After passing through the Five Elements Desolate Domain, the number of cultivators there might not be everywhere in the third stage of the Heaven Realm, but it is still much more than the Five Great Empires. "
"Since that's the case, then why don't we all pass through the Five Elements Desolate Domain together?" Mo Wuji asked doubtfully.
Fei Bingzhu chuckled, "Your words sound so good. Pass through the Five Elements Desolate Domain together? Do you think it's easy to pass through the Five Elements Desolate Domain? Moreover, only the first level of the Five Elements Desolate Domain is open. Even if you pass through the first level, you won't be able to find the second level. Many experts from the Five Great Empires have tried to enter from the first level to search for the second level, but none of them came out. It's said that there are even experts who have reached the third stage of the Heaven Realm that have fallen in there. Of course, no one knows if there were any experts who passed through.
Later on, everyone knew that the Five Elements Desolate Domain could not be forcefully opened, so they just fought for the cultivation resources in the first level. These few years, the number of cultivators who died in there is uncountable. This also caused many sects to start recruiting disciples in large numbers. "
"Then why don't we just send experts in to fight for it? What's the point of recruiting disciples? "The more Mo Wuji heard, the more confused he became.
"The Five Elements Desolate Domain is not an ordinary place. I heard that there are laws of the Heaven and Earth suppressing it. The first level can only allow Channel Opening Stage and Spirit Building Stage cultivators to enter. Those with higher cultivation levels will die if they don't come out for a long time. There were a few cultivators at the third stage of the Heaven Realm who went missing after entering. Rumour has it that they died because of the laws of the Heaven and Earth. "Fei Bingzhu had a 'You don't understand' look on his face.
Mo Wuji was still confused. He asked Fei Bingzhu about the laws of the Heaven and Earth, but Fei Bingzhu only heard about it.
"Isn't that empire controlled by the top sects? Why is it a war between empires and not a war between sects? " Mo Wuji did not continue asking about those profound things. He knew that Fei Bingzhu's words were completely based on hearsay. Fei Bingzhu was the same as him, he did not understand.
Fei Bingzhu chuckled, "Isn't a war between empires the same as a war between sects? The sects only borrow the name of the empire to divide their territories. When the real fight breaks out, it would be a war between the cultivators of the sects. Our Formless Blade Sect also participated in it. Later on, the sects felt that the losses from the war were too great, so they changed it to a scholarly competition.
This is because the spiritual herbs and resources in the Five Elements Desolate Domain are of the highest quality. The value of each stalk is hard to estimate. Many of these herbs can allow a Great Circle of the Earth Realm cultivator to directly step into the Heaven Realm. Hence, the competition was changed to a pill competition. Every three years, the placings to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain will be decided based on the results of the competition. "
"Could it be that our Formless Blade Sect's competition results are too bad, so we opened the Formless Blade Mountain to nurture more pill refiners?" Mo Wuji could roughly guess the reason for the opening of the Formless Blade Mountain.
Fei Bingzhu nodded, "That's right. However, it's not to nurture more pill refiners, but to raise the standards of the existing pill refiners. We will strive to obtain a better ranking in the next competition, and obtain more placings to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain. Don't think that many people will die in the Five Elements Desolate Domain. Actually, no matter how many people die, because of the heaven defying spiritual herbs and treasures, the sects will still want to send more people in. If we obtain a spiritual fruit that can allow a Great Circle of the Earth Realm to enter the Heaven Realm, wouldn't our sect become a quasi-heaven sect? "
"The Formless Blade Sect should be representing the Xing Han Empire right? As long as the Xing Han Empire has placings, wouldn't the Formless Blade Sect also get placings? Don't tell me that after the Xing Han Empire obtains placings, there will be another internal competition, and the placings will be distributed to the various sects? "
"It's not like that. After the new rules for the Five Elements Desolate Domain Scholarly Competition came out, the sects will represent themselves in the pill competition, and it has nothing to do with the empire. The protector of the Xing Han Empire is the Heavenly Temple. If our Formless Blade Sect performs better than the Heavenly Temple in the pill competition, our sect will also get more placings to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain than the Heavenly Temple. "
Between the questions and answers, Mo Wuji completely understood. No wonder the Formless Blade Mountain, which had not been opened for thousands of years, was about to be opened. This was obviously the best time for the various sects to raise their ranks. Once the Formless Blade Sect obtained more placings in the Five Elements Desolate Domain, they would be able to obtain more top quality resources in the Five Elements Desolate Domain. If the Formless Blade Sect was able to obtain a treasure to advance to the Heaven Realm Stage 3, then the Formless Blade Sect would immediately leap from an Earth Sect to a Quasi-Heaven Sect.
