The Muhong City Mayor died in battle, and a large number of Muhong City cultivators fled in all directions. Yingyun City's crisis was finally over. After this battle, there would probably be very few people who would dare to plot against Yingyun City in the future.
Three days later, on top of Yingyun City's city gate tower, it was drizzling lightly. The misty rain was like a painting.
"Brother Mo Wen, won't you stay in Yingyun City for a few more days?"
Huai Hongxiu and a group of Yingyun City cultivators were sending Mo Wen off. Since the crisis was over, Mo Wen naturally would not stay in Yingyun City.
"I have other matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you any longer," Mo Wen said lightly.
Huai Hongxiu's eyes were a little disappointed, but she did not say anything else. She took out a brocade pouch from a plate carried by a maidservant beside her and elegantly handed it to Mo Wen.
"This is the brocade pouch that my father brought back all those years ago. The token is also inside, and it is now returned to its rightful owner," Huai Hongxiu said.
Mo Wen took the brocade pouch and scanned it with his deified soul. The token inside was proof that he had completed this mission.
A look of surprise flashed in his eyes. The brocade pouch was a storage treasure. Not only did it contain the token, but it also contained a large number of vital stones. The vital stones piled up into a small hill, at least three to four million.
Vital stones were immortal cultivation resources useful to any immortal cultivator. Compared to spiritual stones, vital stones were much more effective. They were rare in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm because vital Qi was rarely produced in the Source World, and vital veins were almost extinct. Huatian Palace might have some vital veins, but other sects could not possibly have them.
Now, in the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, all cultivators used spiritual stones to cultivate.
"Miss Huai …" Mo Wen looked at Huai Hongxiu. So many vital stones were a huge fortune. He did not expect Yingyun City to be able to take out so many vital stones. They were indeed extraordinarily wealthy. No wonder the Muhong City Mayor was so concerned.
"Brother Mo Wen, this is a small token of our gratitude. You have saved our lives, and we really do not know how to repay you," Huai Hongxiu said with a smile.
Huai Hongxiu said with a smile. Taking out so many Primordial Stones was a unanimous decision that she and the higher-ups of Yingyun City had discussed. Although Primordial Stones were precious, it was not a pity to give them to Mo Wen. Being able to befriend such a cultivator was also a good thing for Yingyun City. Furthermore, other than Primordial Stones, Yingyun City really did not have much else to offer. Any treasure would not even be worth mentioning in front of this youth.
"I saved your Yingyun City to fulfill my promise. You don't have to do this," Mo Wen said plainly.
"Big Brother Mo Wen, just accept it. If you don't accept it, we will be embarrassed," the Huai Clan second young mistress said straightforwardly. She did not know how old Mo Wen was, but since his cultivation was so high, he was definitely older than her, right? In the World of Cultivators, those who come first are the first.
The upper echelons of Yingyun City also persuaded Mo Wen to accept it. They still had some vital stones in Yingyun City because there was a vital vein on Yingyun Island. This was also the reason why the mayor of Muhong City coveted Yingyun City.
Mo Wen muttered to himself for a moment, then nodded his head and said, "Since that is the case, I will also give you something."
As he spoke, he took out a storage pouch from his Medicine Spiritual Ring and placed some items inside. However, he did not let anyone see what was inside, and only passed it to Huai Hongxiu.
Huai Hongxiu subconsciously took the storage pouch and scanned it with her deified soul. Her expression immediately changed, and she said in shock, "Transform …"
She had only said one word when she realized something and immediately swallowed the words in her mouth. However, her eyes were filled with shock, as though she had seen something that she had never even dreamed of.
The Spiritual Transforming Pearl!
It was actually the legendary Spiritual Transforming Pearl. This item was a legendary item in all realms and was rather rare. Cultivators of their level had only heard rumors about it and had never seen it before.
The Spiritual Transforming Pearl contained pure Creation Qi and had the power to seize the creation of heaven and earth. Huai Hongxiu did not even dare to think about an item of this level normally.
"Brother Mo Wen, this … I cannot accept it. It is too precious."
Huai Hongxiu's hand trembled as she held the storage pouch. It was only a storage pouch that was as light as a feather, but right now, it gave her the pressure of a mountain. If news of the Spiritual Transforming Pearl were to spread, a mere piece would be enough to cause a bloodbath in the entire Ziya Territorial Waters. There were as many as five of them in the storage pouch in her hand.
"There is no reason to take back something that has been given away. This item must be very important to you right now. It is getting late, so I will take my leave."
Mo Wen's silhouette flashed, and he became a beam of flowing light that disappeared into the horizon. With a few flashes, he disappeared from everyone's sight.
Mo Wen had too many Spiritual Transforming Pearls, and he was already numb to them. Giving Huai Hongxiu five of them was nothing. If it were someone close to him, he would have given them hundreds or even thousands of them. To the current Huai Hongxiu, the Spiritual Transforming Pearls were indeed rather important. Even though Yingyun City had survived the crisis and most likely would not be invaded in the short term, it was not a long-term solution.
After all, there was a vital vein on Yingyun Island. Who knew how many people had their eyes on this place? If there were no Supreme Profundity Realm cultivators holding down the fort, a second or third "Muhong City Mayor" would appear sooner or later.
Huai Hongxiu was only a step away from the Supreme Profundity Realm. With the creation power of the Spiritual Transforming Pearl, as long as her aptitude was not too bad, she would most likely be able to break through to the Supreme Profundity Realm in one go.
Only by reaching the Supreme Profundity Realm could she guarantee Yingyun City's long-term peace and stability.
Huai Hongxiu silently looked in the direction that Mo Wen had disappeared. She did not come back to her senses for a long time.
"Elder sister, what is in there?" the Huai Clan second young mistress asked curiously. What kind of treasure could make her elder sister lose her composure like this?
"Little sister, I need to go into seclusion for a while. I will leave Yingyun City to you and Elder Xue to manage. I hope that you will grow up and stop being so willful."
Huai Hongxiu came back to her senses and patted her little sister's head dotingly.
"How am I willful? Elder sister, I was the one who brought Big Brother Mo to Yingyun City. I am the hero, "the Huai Clan second young mistress said indignantly.
The Huai Clan second young mistress said indignantly. She did not feel that she was being willful.
"Alright, you are the hero."
Huai Hongxiu smiled slightly and turned to walk down the city wall. She was a little absent-minded, but her hand was still clutching the storage pouch tightly.
The Huai Clan second young mistress kept staring at the storage pouch. However, seeing that her elder sister had no intention of talking about it, she cleverly did not ask further.
The surrounding upper echelons of Yingyun City were also very curious about what was in the storage pouch. Everyone knew that the item in the storage pouch was probably not simple. After all, it was something that Mo Wen had given away. However, no one dared to step forward and ask abruptly. They could only suppress the curiosity in their hearts.
A beam of blue light streaked across the sky, traveling thousands of miles in an instant. According to the instructions in the crystal ball, after obtaining the token, they could head to the Sorcerer God Temple to hand over the item.
There were many Sorcerer God Temples in the Ancestral Sorcerer Battlefield. There was one in the Ruyun Territorial Waters, located in Yunhong City.
In less than two hours, Mo Wen flew to Yunhong City and entered the Sorcerer God Temple in the city.
Two days later, on a wasteland, a beam of light tore through the void. A tall and straight figure walked out from the darkness. It was an ordinary-looking young man. It was Mo Wen.
He took a step forward and looked around.
"The Desolate Qi here is so thick. It is indeed very different from the Sorcerer Realm."
Many members of the Sorcerer Clan lived in the Sorcerer Realm. They multiplied for generations and were no different from the Sorcerer Realm. In the wasteland, many ancient wild beasts lived. The chances of encountering members of the Sorcerer Clan were very low. There were dangers everywhere. It was the most dangerous place in the entire Ancestral Sorcerer Battlefield.
It was said that the Sorcerer Clan's Moon Maidens were nurtured in these wastelands. They adopted a system of elimination and were rather cruel.
Preliminary cultivators from the outside like them would only be considered to have officially joined the Sorcerer Clan's Moon Maidens Trials after entering the wasteland. Of course, the locations they were in were only relatively safe areas in the wasteland. They would not be allowed to go to the truly dangerous areas.
With a flick of his wrist, a black card with ancient runes floating on it appeared in his hand. The black card emanated a very strange aura. He did not know how it had been concocted. The Sorcerer Clan called it the Desolate Harvesting Token. As the name suggested, cultivators could use it to harvest the Desolate Qi from savage ancient beasts.
When he arrived here, it meant that the trials had already begun. His mission was to kill savage ancient beasts and collect Desolate Qi. Once he filled up the Desolate Harvesting Token, he would be able to pass the first round of the Sorcerer Clan's trials.
In the first round, the cultivators from all realms would not be able to see the Moon Maidens candidates. Only in the second round would they be able to receive the Moon Maidens candidates nurtured by the Sorcerer Clan.
"Isn't it just killing savage ancient beasts? It shouldn't be difficult, right?"
Mo Wen muttered to himself. Savage ancient beasts were ancient creatures that had existed since the Immemorial Age. It was said that they were one of the oldest living creatures in the world.
In that era, savage ancient beasts were rather terrifying. Some powerful savage ancient beasts could destroy the heavens and the earth. They hunted divine dragons for food. There were even some special savage ancient beasts that specialized in eating dragon livers and phoenix gallbladders.
However, as time passed, the heavens and the earth had changed and all living creatures had died. Pure savage ancient beasts were rare. In the Immemorial Age, savage ancient beasts had retired from the stage of history.
Most of the savage ancient beasts living in the Ancestral Sorcerer Battlefield were descendants of their descendants.
Mo Wen stepped into the air and walked deeper into the wastelands. The deeper he went, the more savage ancient beasts there were.
After flying for more than a thousand miles, Mo Wen discovered that there were many ancient beasts living on the ground. However, he did not attack them. The cultivation of these ancient beasts was too low. There was no point in killing them.
Since the Sorcerer Clan had used this place as a test, it was impossible for them to pass just by killing low-level ancient beasts.
Roar!
Suddenly, an earth-shattering roar sounded from the underground forest. The roar was extremely domineering. The ground within a radius of a thousand miles shook violently.
In the primeval forest, birds and beasts panicked and fled in all directions.
"Huh?"
Mo Wen, who was passing by, looked down. He saw a huge ancient beast standing in the forest, roaring majestically.
The ancient beast looked like a saber-toothed tiger, but it had wings on its back. Its body was not covered in fur, but in dark brown scales. Under the sunlight, it emitted a cold glow.
