Mo Wen's expression was calm. He did not even look at Shao Ji, who was on the ground. He had never seen Shao Ji as an opponent. Instead, he looked at the youth in red. He felt a threat from this person, a very strong threat.
"You have some ability. No wonder you are ranked fifth on the leaderboard. However, let's stop here."
The youth in red nodded, but his face was expressionless. He did not care about such a level of ability. Since Mo Wen refused a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit, he could not be blamed.
The person in fifth place had more than 20,000 points. If he could take them for himself, his ranking would rise from fourth place to second place.
As for first place …
Mo Wen did not know what kind of monster the "good woman" was. Her current points had exceeded 200,000, and they were still rising.
To him, 200,000 points was a number that he could not even hope to reach. He did not even understand how the "good woman" had managed to do it.
A huge aura exploded from the youth in red. The terrifying aura was like a tornado, shooting straight into the clouds. The clouds within a ten-mile radius were all swept away.
"Such powerful cultivation!"
Mo Wen's expression was extremely serious. Lord Merciless' cultivation was already close to the third martial arts grandmaster realm. He should be at the pinnacle of the second martial arts grandmaster realm. Even Tan Qiyue was slightly inferior to him. Moreover, this was purely based on cultivation. In terms of realm, he had reached the second martial arts grandmaster realm. He was unlike Mo Wen, who was not a martial arts grandmaster even though he had the ability of an ordinary first martial arts grandmaster realm strong practitioner.
This person gave Mo Wen a lot of pressure. He was similar to the vampire pinnacle Grand Earl who had died at Mo Wen's hands. In terms of combat ability, he was most likely comparable to an ordinary third martial arts grandmaster realm strong practitioner.
"It can only be said that it is your tragedy that you have encountered me. With your cultivation, you must have been busy these past few days to be able to collect more than 20,000 points. Now, you have all given it to me."
Lord Merciless laughed wantonly. It was as though the points in Mo Wen's hands were already his.
A huge palm of Protective Qi appeared in the sky. It was at least a hundred feet wide and slammed towards Mo Wen viciously. This was a palm of astral energy that was condensed with his powerful cultivation. It was extremely powerful and belonged to the category of brute force. If one were to face it head-on, one's cultivation would at least be on par with Young Lord Merciless in order to not be at a disadvantage.
Mo Wen's expression was somewhat grave. This Lord Merciless would most likely be somewhat difficult to deal with. Back then, he had been able to kill the Blood Kindred pinnacle Grand Earl because of the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear. Now that the Heavenly Serpent Divine Spear was sealed, he couldn't even use any treasures. He could only rely on himself, so his strength was undoubtedly greatly reduced.
However, while Lord Merciless was strong, the condensed Astral Energy palm could not do anything to him.
A beam of golden light shone from his body, and in the next moment, his entire body turned pure gold. Endless golden light was released, and he looked like a radiant sun.
However, right now, Mo Wen's aura was almost completely suppressed by Lord Merciless. The Protective Qi palm enveloped the heavens and the earth. Under the suppression from all sides, Mo Wen's aura seemed to be imprisoned, unable to seep out at all.
Hmph!
Mo Wen coldly snorted. With a flash of light, his entire person became a beam of golden light, rushing upwards and colliding with the huge palm of Qi.
Rumble!
There was a loud sound that shook the earth and the mountains. Sand and stones flew everywhere, and rocks rolled down. The mountain collapsed. The aura was exceptionally shocking.
Even Shao Ji, who had Martial Arts Grandmaster First Realm cultivation, did not dare to stand at the center of the battle. Instead, he dodged far away.
A beam of golden light flew out in the explosion. In the collision, Mo Wen was clearly not a match for Lord Merciless. He was at an absolute disadvantage. However, the Protective Qi palm only pushed him back a few hundred meters. It did not injure him.
With a somersault, Mo Wen stepped on a rock wall and used the momentum to fly up, landing on the other side of the mountain peak.
Even though flying was not allowed in the Red Stone Forest, a Martial Arts Grandmaster could easily jump a few hundred meters. Jumping onto the mountain peak was a piece of cake.
"Huh? You have some ability."
A look of surprise flashed in Lord Merciless's eyes. He had originally thought that even if Mo Wen was not killed by the palm, he would at least be seriously injured. Even an ordinary Martial Arts Grandmaster Second Realm ancient martial art practitioner would not be able to block the Protective Qi palm that he had condensed. However, right now, Mo Wen was only pushed back. He was not even injured.
"Your cultivation is a little strange. I can't sense the" aura "of a Martial Arts Grandmaster from you. You are probably not in the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm yet, right? But your combat ability is no weaker than a Martial Arts Grandmaster Second Realm ancient martial art practitioner. What is going on? "
With Lord Merciless's cultivation, he could see some clues from Mo Wen's body. However, he was also puzzled. What was going on with Mo Wen? He did not seem like a Martial Arts Grandmaster strong practitioner, but his ability was comparable to that of a Second Realm Martial Arts Grandmaster. Also, he was not an immortal cultivator but a pure ancient martial art practitioner. This was something that even Lord Merciless found hard to explain.
He was from the hidden martial arts strain and was a true martial arts inheritor of Hua Xia. He was part of the essence of Hua Xia's martial arts. His understanding and vision of martial arts were far beyond that of the ancient martial art practitioners from the Inner worlds and the main space.
Looking at Mo Wen's situation, Lord Merciless could not find a reason to explain it.
However, he could tell that Mo Wen's Inner Qi was very deep and very special, especially his body. It seemed to have reached an unimaginable realm. Even the physical body of a Martial Arts Grandmaster Third Realm ancient martial art practitioner most likely could not compare to Mo Wen.
The only explanation for such a strong physical body was that Mo Wen had an extraordinary encounter. Such encounters could only be encountered but not sought. Others could only be envious.
However, Mo Wen's Inner Qi was far stronger than that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster First Realm ancient martial art practitioner, but he did not have the aura of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. How could this be explained?
Even if Lord Merciless racked his brains, he would not be able to imagine that Mo Wen had cultivated three martial arts methods at the same time. Moreover, they were all top-notch martial arts methods in the world. They complemented and restrained each other, condensing into a large cycle that could be fused together. That was why Mo Wen's Inner Qi was so unbelievably strong.
Cultivating three martial arts methods at the same time, especially the most difficult ones, was a legend, even in the hidden martial arts strain. More accurately, it was taboo because the hidden martial arts strain did not advocate cultivating more than one martial arts method at the same time. Not only would it cause one to be distracted, but it would also cause one to go berserk.
Since ancient times, there had been people who had dared to do this and succeeded. However, in the long history of Hua Xia, such people could be counted on one hand. Usually, there would not be one in hundreds or even thousands of years.
"I advise you to hand over your points. Although you have some ability, that is all. With your ability, you will not be able to make it to the top. I reckon you will not even be able to make it into the top ten. Perhaps in the previous tournaments, your ability would have been enough to make it into the top three of the Heaven List, or even take the throne of first place. However, this tournament is our battlefield. You are nothing, "Lord Merciless said plainly.
Lord Merciless said plainly. The "us" he mentioned was naturally referring to the young powerhouses of the hidden martial arts strain. Once the hidden martial arts strain appeared, the martial arts circle would be their world. There would not be a second possibility.
Although Mo Wen had many points, he would be surpassed by others sooner or later, or his points would be snatched by others. Among the strong practitioners that Lord Merciless knew, there were already a few who had not made a move yet. Each of those people was very powerful, almost on par with him. The reason why they did not stand out on the leaderboard was because they had not made a move yet. In other words, they could not be bothered to kill the criminals to collect points. Instead, they were waiting for some of the participants to have more points so that they could snatch them.
Even if Lord Merciless did not snatch Mo Wen's points, they would be snatched by others sooner or later.
"Your battlefield?"
Mo Wen nodded. He had also guessed the identity of the youth in red. He was probably one of the hidden martial arts strain that Mo Qingtian had mentioned.
The ancient martial arts practitioners of the hidden martial arts strain were indeed very powerful. Even some of the young strong practitioners could be so powerful. Then, wouldn't the strong practitioners of the older generation be even more astonishing? There would most likely be many ancient martial arts practitioners who had become immortals.
No wonder Mo Qingtian had said that it was difficult for the Huatian Palace to invite the ancient martial arts practitioners of the hidden martial arts strain. They would only come out if they offered attractive conditions.
"Hand over your points obediently. If you cooperate, I will naturally not kill you. But if you resist, don't blame me for being ruthless. "
Lord Merciless waved his folding fan and said leisurely. He liked the feeling of subduing the enemy without a fight. The fear and compromise of his opponent made him feel accomplished and satisfied. If he attacked, it would not be difficult for him to kill Mo Wen and snatch his points. But if he could make others hand over their points without attacking, then that was true ability.
Shao Ji, who was hiding in the distance, looked at Lord Merciless with a fearful gaze. Lord Merciless's temperament was rather strange. If he did not go his way, he might kill someone. There were a few times when Shao Ji had slacked a little. Just because he was not respectful enough to Lord Merciless, he had almost been killed. Hence, when Lord Merciless said that he would kill Mo Wen, he was not joking.
Even if Mo Wen handed over his points voluntarily, Lord Merciless might not kill him as he had said. If he was in a good mood, he might let Mo Wen go. But if he turned hostile, the possibility of him killing Mo Wen was even higher.
"Hand it over obediently? You are thinking too much. Who do you think you are? If you have the ability, come and snatch it yourself. "Mo Wen sneered. Lord Merciless was a little too full of himself. He had worked so hard for five days, and Mo Wen wanted him to hand it over obediently?
"It seems like you really don't know that you are seeking death."
Lord Merciless's gaze turned extremely cold. His tone and expression were still very calm, but the killing intent on his body grew stronger and stronger.
It had been a long time since anyone had dared to speak to him like this. Those who had dared to be so presumptuous in front of him had all become a pile of bones.
"I don't know if I am seeking death or not, but if you want to kill me with your abilities, you are thinking too much."
Mo Wen was not afraid of Lord Merciless's anger. The grudge had already been formed. How could Mo Wen be afraid of trouble? Lord Merciless was indeed strong. But while he was strong, Mo Wen was not weak either. Even if he was not a match for such a strong practitioner, if he could not win, he could still run away.
Who said that he could not run away? It was never too late for a gentleman to take revenge. Mo Wen was not a stubborn person.
Moreover, he also wanted to fight with such a person and see the difference between him and others. (To be continued.)
