Yan Li's cultivation had long reached the pinnacle of the Earthly Immortal Stage. The moment he released his aura, the faint rumbling of lightning could be heard.
In a breath's time, nine bolts of lightning came crashing down.
Yan Li's fleshly body was clearly not weak. Even though he didn't charge forward to infuriate the lightning bolts like Mo Wuji, he didn't bring out any defensive treasures to defend against the lightning bolts.
Endless lightning bolts landed on Yan Li's body, causing his flesh to split open and blood to flow. Yan Li was truly courageous; he didn't make a sound, nor did he bring out any defensive treasures.
Standing by Mo Wuji's side, Mo Qingche's heart was pounding. She said worriedly, "Grandpa, this lightning tribulation is so terrifying. Will I have to undergo it in the future?"
Mo Wuji said calmly, "That's right. If you want to pursue higher realms, you will have to undergo the lightning tribulation. If you can't, you will turn into ashes. "
Mo Wuji didn't even try to encourage Mo Qingche. As a cultivator, if she couldn't even handle this, then no amount of encouragement would be of use. He couldn't possibly stay by Mo Qingche's side forever. Mo Qingche would have to rely on herself to forge her own path.
Mo Qingche seemed to understand Mo Wuji's meaning. She composed herself and said, "Grandpa, don't worry. If I meet this lightning tribulation in the future, I will definitely not be afraid."
A day later, the lightning bolts of the lightning tribulation finally dissipated. The dispirited Yan Li could be said to have seen the end of his suffering.
In less than half a day, Yan Li leapt out of the pit full of energy.
"Big brother, this lightning tribulation was simply exhilarating. I can already feel the energy of ascension from the Immortal World. As long as I release my Heavenly Immortal energy, I will be able to ascend immediately." Yan Li ran over excitedly.
Mo Wuji could also clearly feel the change in Yan Li's energy; it was much stronger than before. He nodded and said, "You can ascend now. I will follow behind you."
Even though Mo Wuji had only left the Immortal World for a short period of time, it didn't mean much to the experts of the Immortal World. However, Mo Wuji was anxious. He knew the circumstances under which he left the Immortal World.
It was true that he destroyed the Great Sword Path. However, Mo Wuji was clear that he didn't kill the strongest person in the Great Sword Path, Yi Minghu.
There was no need to talk about Yi Minghu, he didn't even manage to kill a single one of the three Grand Emperors and one Quasi-Emperor.
Moreover, his enemies weren't just these few Grand Emperors, there were also Grand Emperor Lun Cai, the Alliance Head of the Pill Dao Immortal Alliance and other experts.
It could be said that if these people were to return, his Ping Fan Immortal School would be in danger.
What kind of people did Ping Fan have? Wei Zidao was just a newly ascended Grand Emperor. Wei Zidao's strength was still passable as he was a tyrant in the Sword Prison. In reality, Mo Wuji knew that Wei Zidao was nothing compared to a true expert.
"Alright." Yan Li replied and directly released his aura.
Rumbling sounds could be heard from the vast void as a spatial tunnel appeared above Yan Li's head. A whirlpool of energy swept Yan Li up and was about to wash him away.
Mo Wuji reached out to grab Mo Qingche and rushed towards the tunnel.
Just as Mo Wuji entered the tunnel, a strong force surged towards him, trying to push him away.
There seemed to be an additional layer of barrier in the void and Yan Li passed through it without any obstruction. However, Mo Wuji and Mo Qingche were blocked.
Mo Wuji was extremely anxious because he was very clear that the moment Yan Li ascended, this spatial tunnel would completely disappear and he would no longer have a chance to return to the Immortal World.
At this instant, Mo Wuji didn't even need to consider the dangers as he took out a page of the Book of Luo to protect Mo Qingche. Thereafter, Mo Wuji drew out his Kun Wu Sword and cleaved down on the spatial barrier.
Violent Sword Dao killing intent swept out, and a crack appeared on the void barrier. Mo Wuji followed up with a punch and that crack was torn open. An extremely narrow crack appeared in front of Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji brought Mo Qingche along as he rushed into the crack.
All sorts of spatial tears could be heard. Even though Mo Wuji's God Physique was in the late stages of the God Physique Stage, his entire body was covered in wounds and blood.
Mo Wuji was glad that he used the Book of Luo to protect Mo Qingche. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to protect Mo Qingche from such terrifying spatial tears. The Laws of Heaven and Earth were indeed terrifying and if he wanted to go against them, he would have been killed if he was slightly weaker.
After splitting open the barrier, Mo Wuji immediately felt the immortal spiritual energy. A natural whirlpool of runes appeared in front of Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji was an Array Dao Grandmaster, and he had recently been researching various kinds of talismans. With a single look, he could tell that this rune was a transfer dao rune formed from the dao spirituality of the Heaven and Earth.
Mo Wuji had never ascended before so his spiritual will detected that Yan Li had entered that dao rune. He brought Mo Qingche along and stepped into the dao rune.
Indeed, the moment he stepped in, he felt as though he was teleporting and in the next instant, Mo Wuji landed in a huge immortal pond that was filled with dense immortal spiritual energy.
Above this huge pond was a row of golden words: "Luo Ling Immortal Domain's 10th Ascension Pond."
"Big Brother, the immortal spiritual energy here is really dense." Yan Li was incomparably surprised as he sat down to stabilise his cultivation.
On the other hand, Mo Qingche's cultivation was still too low so she couldn't feel the benefits of the Ascension Pond.
Mo Wuji waited for Yan Li for half a day and after Yan Li stabilised his Heavenly Immortal cultivation, he stopped cultivating.
…
Mo Wuji knew that every Immortal Domain had many Ascension Ponds but he didn't come to the Immortal World through normal means so he only had a slight understanding of the Ascension Ponds.
The Ascension Pond didn't allow any immortals to enter and one of the reasons was because the Ascension Pond had a passage to the Cultivation World. Even though this passage couldn't be opened by ordinary people, it was still one of the top secrets of the Immortal World.
After Mo Wuji brought Yan Li and co. out of the Ascension Pond, they appeared in a huge hall.
Before the three of them could ask anything, two people ran over. "Have the three of you just ascended?"
The one who asked was a Golden Immortal cultivator and the moment he asked, he felt that something was amiss. Yan Li still had the aura of a Heavenly Immortal on him so it was more like he had just ascended. Mo Wuji and Mo Qingche looked no different from mortals and didn't have any aura of ascension. Could they have just ascended?
"You brought mortals to the Immortal World?" The other person stared at Yan Li and exclaimed.
There weren't many people in the hall but when they heard this, they all crowded over. In their eyes, to be able to bring mortals to the Immortal World, Mo Wuji definitely had some peak grade treasures on him.
Actually, cultivators that had just ascended were still very safe. Not only did the various Immortal Domains protect them, ordinary experts wouldn't even bother to act against cultivators that had just ascended.
How could a cultivator that had just ascended have anything good on him?
Now that Yan Li revealed that he had a peak grade treasure, things were different.
Mo Wuji was slightly speechless. Ordinary cultivators could bring mortals to the Immortal World? They needed to top up their intelligence. He was an Immortal Emperor and an Immortal Emperor that wasn't suppressed by the Laws of the Heaven and Earth. Even he needed the Kun Wu Sword to return to the Immortal World. Was this something that an ordinary person could do?
Yan Li said disdainfully, "Are you stupid? If I could use the Ascension Technique to bring mortals to the Immortal World, I wouldn't let them appear in this hall."
"Let's go, Yan Li." Mo Wuji wasn't in the mood to speak any further. He still knew about Luo Ling Immortal Domain. Immortal Empress Wen Lan was from Luo Ling Immortal Domain. Not only that, the Great Sword Path that he destroyed many years ago was also from Luo Ling Immortal Domain.
Seeing the three of them leave the hall, a few cultivators exchanged glances with each other, then they hurriedly followed.
Towards cultivators that had just ascended, they didn't dare to openly act against them in the immortal city. As long as they left the immortal city, it would be hard to say.
Mo Qingche asked doubtfully, "Grandpa, the Ascension Hall doesn't allow mortals to ascend, right? They seemed to want to stop the three of us. Since that's the case, why didn't they use this as an excuse? "
Yan Li chuckled, "If they use this as an excuse, then the items wouldn't belong to them."
Mo Wuji didn't place these small fries in his heart. His spiritual will swept outwards. He didn't intentionally break the restrictions of the immortal city. With the strength of his spiritual will, he was still able to find the location of the transfer array.
With a sweep of his spiritual will, Mo Wuji also knew where this place was. A famous immortal city in Luo Ling Immortal Domain, Ding Po Immortal City.
Mo Wuji was all too familiar with Ding Po Immortal City. Many years ago, a few big sects set up a deathtrap array here to deal with him. Because of Han Qingru's warning, he managed to escape. In the end, he almost died in the void outside Ding Po Immortal City.
In Ding Po Immortal City, Mo Wuji even knew a cultivator called Chen Hu. This was an Eight Star Genius. Back in the third level of the Broken World, he had a deal with Chen Hu. Chen Hu's character was not bad; he was calm and composed. It was said that his father was also an Immortal Emperor. However, Chen Hu seemed to have fallen in Cosmos Edge.
Mo Wuji didn't expect that he would return to Ding Po Immortal City. From the looks of it, he was fated with this immortal city.
Mo Wuji's spiritual will soon landed on the outskirts of Ding Po Immortal City. Outside the city gates, there was a huge wanted poster.
The person described on the wanted poster was too familiar to Mo Wuji; it was him. The wanted poster clearly stated that Mo Wuji had stolen the resources of the Immortal World, killed the innocent, and was utterly devoid of conscience. Everyone had the responsibility to report and kill Mo Wuji. As long as a cultivator could provide information about Mo Wuji, they would be rewarded handsomely.
Seeing this wanted poster, Mo Wuji's heart sank. He wasn't afraid of being wanted. With his strength, who in the Immortal World would dare to put a wanted poster on him? He was worried about his Ping Fan Immortal School. Even he, the Sect Head of Ping Fan, was wanted. It would be weird if his Ping Fan Immortal School was doing well.
Mo Wuji's spiritual will continued to extend outwards. When he saw a few corpses and a still-breathing cultivator nailed to the outer city walls of the wanted poster, Mo Wuji was completely infuriated.
Below those corpses, there were clear descriptions of Mo Wuji's accomplices.
Mo Wuji opened his hand and called out Shuai Guo and Da Huang. With a solemn expression, he said, "Da Huang, you and Shuai Guo protect Yan Li and Qingche. Many people are going to die here today."
