As soon as the elder in the lead said this, the people around them were shocked. There was actually someone around them, but they had not sensed it at all.
If the clan leader had not reminded them, they would most likely still be in the dark.
Among the five of them, other than the martial arts grandmaster in the lead, there were three at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm. There was also Jun Wulei, who was also at the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm.
The person's cultivation was most likely not simple for the four of them to not sense him at all.
Mo Wen laughed bitterly and emerged from the magma sea. He did not use the Invisible Talisman, so it was not strange that the martial arts grandmaster could discover him.
"Who are you? Why are you hiding in the dark and spying?"
The leading martial arts grandmaster asked coldly. He discovered that Mo Wen was only a young man, most likely only about 20 years old. There was some surprise in his eyes.
It was most likely very rare to have such cultivation at such a young age.
The Gao Clan had produced a genius, Jun Wulei, who had reached the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm before he was 30. Even in the big inner worlds, he was considered a top genius. But compared to this youth, he was most likely still lacking.
"I am Mo Wen. I unintentionally passed by and disturbed you, senior." Since he could not hide, he might as well stand out openly. Mo Wen saluted with his fists and spoke in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
"Mo Wen, it's actually you!"
Before the leading martial arts grandmaster could say anything, Jun Wulei cried out in surprise. His eyes were wide open. He had not expected to meet Mo Wen here.
Mo Wen was an ancient martial art practitioner from the main space. Why was he here?
"You know each other?"
The leading martial arts grandmaster looked at Jun Wulei with some surprise. His grandson actually knew this youth. Also, looking at the situation, the two of them seemed to be friends.
"Brother Jun, how have you been?"
Mo Wen smiled and saluted Jun Wulei with his fists. However, Demoness Gong had said that this fellow was not only a Huatian Palace Executor, but also had a strong background. It seemed that this was indeed the case.
"I am very surprised that you can appear here. Also, your cultivation …" Jun Wulei looked at Mo Wen strangely.
He could sense that Mo Wen's aura was very powerful. It should not be weaker than his, and there were even faint signs of it surpassing his.
He remembered that when he first met Mo Wen, he was only a Qi Nucleation realm ancient martial art practitioner. He had barely broken through to the Embryonic Breathing realm in the forbidden land. However, in just a few months, Mo Wen had actually reached the same level as him. It was very likely that Mo Wen had even surpassed him.
At that time, he was already half a step into the Golden Elixir realm. With the help of his clan, he had continuously broken through to the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm. Even so, he was still no match for Mo Wen.
How did he cultivate? Did he ride a rocket?
Jun Wulei couldn't understand how a young man who didn't seem to have any background could actually cultivate so quickly. Now, he somewhat understood Gong Biluo's words. This peculiar young man could really bring glory to the Ming Cult.
In the past, he would never have believed that this young man had such ability.
"I was just lucky." Mo Wen naturally knew that Jun Wulei was surprised by his cultivation speed. However, in terms of cultivation, Mo Wen was currently only equivalent to the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing realm. It was not as exaggerated as Jun Wulei had imagined. It was only because he had many fortuitous encounters and special circumstances that he had such a strong aura.
Moreover, Jun Wulei's cultivation speed was not slow either. After not seeing each other for a few months, he had actually reached the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm. At that time, he was still stuck before the Golden Elixir realm. He was indeed a disciple of an aristocratic family. His acquired resources were far from what ordinary people could compare to.
"Xiangchen, aren't you going to introduce your friend to us?"
The Martial Arts Grandmaster in the lead was also very curious. When did his grandson know such a young genius? Why had he never mentioned him before?
"Grandfather, his name is Mo Wen. He is also a Huatian Palace Executor. He is a good friend of mine."
Jun Wulei's gaze flickered for a moment. Then, he smiled and spoke.
"Oh, I am Gao Hanshan, Xiangchen's grandfather. Greetings."
The Martial Arts Grandmaster in the lead nodded at Mo Wen. However, his gaze was somewhat meaningful as he looked at his grandson. His introduction was too simple. It could be said that other than a name, there was nothing else. Also, he could see that his grandson seemed to be hiding something. This made him a little curious.
"Greetings, Senior Gao."
Facing such a strong practitioner, Mo Wen didn't dare to be impolite. Once again, he cupped his hands in greeting.
He remembered that Demoness Gong had said before that Jun Wulei was not his real name. It was just that he had changed his name. His original surname was Gao, and he was a member of the hidden martial arts strain's Gao Clan. His name seemed to be Gao Xiangchen.
Mo Wen didn't understand why a young master of the Gao Clan would suddenly change his name.
Then, Jun Wulei gave a simple introduction of the other elders. They were all elders of the Gao Clan. Their seniority was high, and their cultivation was also high.
Mo Wen was very surprised. The Gao Clan didn't seem to be a sect faction. Instead, it seemed to be a faction with a clan as a unit. However, the power of the clan was not weak at all. Instead, it was very shocking. A Martial Arts Grandmaster and three others at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm. Just these people alone were most likely enough to support a first-rate sect in a large Inner world.
Their purpose for coming here was also very simple: for the spiritual fire.
Mo Wen's previous guess was not wrong. This was indeed the underground of the Tan Zi Beast Lair. Moreover, it was the eighth level, known as the Fire Domain. It was the most terrifying level of the Tan Zi Beast Lair. Once, a Martial Arts Grandmaster from the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension had barged into this place. In the end, he returned injured and passed away not long after.
For the ancient martial art practitioners of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, the Fire Domain on the eighth level of the Tan Zi Beast Lair was the most dangerous place in the world.
However, this time, it was clearly different. It was because the people who had come to this place were no longer ancient martial art practitioners of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Instead, they were the top strong practitioners of the various large Inner worlds. Even if the Fire Domain had the Seven Major Beast Kings, they would not be able to disperse such a powerful group.
Originally, when Mo Wen had used the Thousand Mile Talisman, he had already given up hope for the spiritual fire. It was because he knew that once he was teleported out, it would most likely be very difficult for him to return.
However, he had not expected that he would actually be teleported to the eighth level of the Beast Lair, where the spiritual fire was hibernating.
According to Jun Wulei, they had chased the spiritual fire all the way from top to bottom. The spiritual fire had fled to the eighth level and then hidden.
"Mo Wen, are you also here for the spiritual fire?"
Jun Wulei looked at Mo Wen curiously. If it wasn't for the spiritual fire, there was no reason for him to meet him here.
"Yes, I am also here for the spiritual fire. The spiritual fire is very important to me."
Mo Wen nodded his head. He did not hide it. His original purpose was for the spiritual fire. Other than that, he really could not find any other reason. He could not possibly reveal the matter of the Thousand Mile Talisman.
"Young man, you are quite ambitious. Did you come here alone?"
Gao Hanshan looked at Mo Wen with some interest. Mo Wen was alone and did not seem to have any companions. However, it seemed a little unrealistic for him to fight for the spiritual fire by himself.
Almost none of the people who dared to enter the eighth level to fight for the spiritual fire were easy to deal with. There were even people with higher cultivation than him.
A team without a Martial Arts Grandmaster in command had almost no chance at all.
Mo Wen nodded his head. He could tell what Gao Hanshan meant, but he did not say anything. He also did not have much confidence in getting the spiritual fire. It was just a matter of luck.
"Is the spiritual fire very important to you?" Jun Wulei asked with a frown.
"Yes."
The spiritual fire was not only related to his problem of becoming immortal. The most important thing was the Spiritless Clean Fire. Only by absorbing the power of the spiritual fire could he have a chance of successfully cultivating the Spiritless Clean Fire. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, he might not have any achievements even after a few decades.
When Jun Wulei heard this, his expression kept changing. This time, the Gao Clan also had high hopes for the spiritual fire. His grandfather was a Martial Arts Grandmaster and had reached the limit of an ancient martial art practitioner. Once he obtained the spiritual fire, he might be able to embark on the path of becoming immortal.
Gao Hanshan and the other old men looked at each other. They naturally saw the change in Jun Wulei's expression. However, they had not expected that he would think so highly of Mo Wen. He had a conflicted expression because Mo Wen wanted to fight for the spiritual fire.
"Little Xiangzi, if you have something to say, just say it. I hate seeing you like this the most."
An old man in black with a long white beard glared at Jun Wulei.
"Second Grandpa, there are some things that I don't know if I should tell you." Jun Wulei sighed, but his gaze was on Mo Wen.
When Mo Wen saw this, his eyes flashed slightly. His expression turned cold and he clenched his fists slightly.
He had already realized what Jun Wulei wanted to say. In this world, there were not many people who completely understood his identity, but Jun Wulei was one of them.
When he was in the Dafang Sect, Demoness Gong had told him about this and told him that Jun Wulei could rest assured.
However, Mo Wen was not sure if he could really rest assured.
Also, Demoness Gong seemed to have said that the Gao Clan behind Jun Wulei seemed to be the bloodline of the Ming Cult's Left Wisdom King. It had been passed down for thousands of years and had always hoped to revive the Ming Cult. It was the most powerful faction in the Ming Preservation Faction.
However, even though the Gao Clan belonged to the Ming Preservation Faction, it was difficult to say whether or not they would acknowledge him. Also, he had so many secrets. It was even more uncertain whether the Gao Clan would have any ill intentions.
"Mo Wen, you can rest assured about the Gao Clan. Our Gao Clan has always been noble and unsullied. No matter what, we will not do anything despicable. Originally, I thought that you would not be able to do such a thing, so I never told my family about it. I was afraid that it would affect and pressure you. But now, I feel that you are indeed a little different. Perhaps you can do something that our Gao Clan has not been able to do for hundreds of years.
So, at this time, if our Gao Clan can help you, it might be more beneficial to you. "
Before this, Demoness Gong had reminded him not to tell anyone about Mo Wen, not even the Gao Clan for the time being. He had always kept his promise. In the entire Gao Clan, only he knew Mo Wen's identity. But now, he felt that there was a need to say some things.
"Brat, why are you playing riddles with me? If you have something to say, say it quickly. Otherwise, don't blame grandfather for being impolite."
Gao Hanshan frowned. The brat Xiangchen's words had actually mentioned the Gao Clan's long-cherished wish for hundreds of years. Since it had risen to such a level, it was impossible for him not to pay attention.
Of course, he knew what the Gao Clan's long-cherished wish was. (To be continued.)
