Chapter 612: Under the Main Peak
Mo Shuangshan and his group rested on Natural Disaster Island for five days, and then set out again for the ruins of the main peak of the Mohist Immortal Sect deep in the Xingluo Sea.
This time the leader led the team, and most of the Eden people were sent to the Southern Wilderness. The team was naturally much smaller and the pace was faster. The Zouwu chariot led the way in front, and the phoenix and wooden kite followed behind.
They advanced all the way towards the depths of the Xingluo Sea, and no one dared to stop them. Occasionally, they met local monks along the way, but when they saw the Mo Shuang Mountain flag on the Phoenix Kite, they would avoid them as if they had seen a ghost.
This feels similar to the street-cleaning tiger patrol.
Probably because Mo Shuangshan had fought a battle with Dragon Palace in the West Sea before, and the record was too "impressive", the leader Mo Jun used the Great Sun King to make an example of him, which really deterred those guys in the Xingluo Sea who were ready to make a move.
Let’s not talk about other people for now, Lao Jiang doesn’t hate this feeling.
He sat on the Phoenix Kite and looked around for a hundred miles. Except for the group of people from Mo Shuangshan, the whole place was vast and open, allowing him to be free and unfettered.
"That's how it should be."
He said to Shi Yan, who was sitting on the throne behind him and playing games with Shi Liu:
"We should have advised the Sect Master to show his skills a long time ago. If we had killed one of its dragon kings before entering the West Sea, it would have intimidated everyone and there wouldn't have been any trouble at the Side Peak Ruins."
"I, Mo Shuangshan, am not the kind of person who bullies the weak. Master has rules and regulations in his actions. It must be that the Great Sun King has touched his taboo, otherwise he would not have killed him."
Shi Yan glanced at her stinky brother and said:
"Please don't cause any more trouble. We still don't know what the situation is in the main peak. I just want to complete this search for my ancestors safely and let everyone in the sect return home in one piece.
This trip to the West Sea is enough to make people shudder with fear.”
"How could I cause trouble? Master sister, what you said doesn't make sense."
Old Jiang complained:
" It's always me who is the one who is provoking things. You should speak honestly. How many times have I been the one to initiate trouble?"
"Hahaha"
Jiang Xia's words made Shi Liu beside him burst into laughter. The little mountain monster held his golden belt and said in a shrill voice:
"This is the funniest joke I've heard this year. Jiang Xia, please continue. Your shameless look makes me very happy.
What do you mean you never cause trouble?
In my opinion, you are the biggest troublemaker in the world.
Wherever you go, trouble follows you."
"I think you're itchy."
Boss Jiang snorted in an unfriendly tone, but he didn't argue with Shi Liu. These mountain monsters were naturally stubborn and you couldn't expect them to say anything nice.
However, the deeper you go into the Starry Sea, the worse the surrounding environment becomes.
There is no living creature on any of the islands. Instead, there are more and more deserted islands with no grass at all, and even the fish in the water are becoming increasingly scarce.
Old Jiang looked at the desolate scene around him and suddenly felt as if he had returned to the Red Moon Realm or the Wasteland. The spiritual energy around him was still there, but if he sensed it carefully, he could find that the way the spiritual energy circulated here was much more violent than that in the outside world.
Sometimes it is rich, sometimes it is difficult, and there is no pattern at all between its flow and changes.
"Is the life here so difficult because of the proximity to the Sin Abyss?"
He humbly asked Shi Yan for advice. Dahu was busy playing games, and seemed to be used to this scene. He just said without raising his head:
“It has something to do with Sin Abyss.
But the more important reason is that, going further forward is the ancient battlefield where the West Sea demons were destroyed five hundred years ago. At that time, the mighty and the extraterritorial demons fought fiercely here, causing the West Sea to sink.
The Taoist rules that were disrupted here in the past have not yet been restored. This is a truly disordered place where anything can happen.
The scene you see now has been carefully cleaned up by the Immortal Alliance, and it is much better than before.
When Ben Xiu and Xiao Chu'er came here to travel, there were still some undead fighting spirits that died in battle here five hundred years ago and were infected by evil spirits. The lowest level of these were ghosts at the divine cultivation level.
Going higher, you can even see the remnant souls of those who have sought the Dao here.
Some even say that more than four hundred years ago, there were still remnants of the Sea of Bitterness here.”
Shi Yan paused for a moment, and while Shi Liu was listening to the story, she attacked Shi Liu's character and reduced his health to a low level. She then continued with great interest:
"The evil cultivators from the West Sea rarely come here. They are active in the middle and outer parts of the Xingluo Sea. A thousand miles ahead is where the Demon Suppression Tower is. That place is very ominous for the evil cultivators.
One thousand five hundred miles west of the Demon-Suppressing Tower is the Sin Abyss.
That is the West Sea, and even the end of the world in Kumu Realm. The environment there is even worse. Except for some self-torturing cultivators, no one goes there. "
"Well, it seems that after exploring the main peak, we should find some time to visit the Sin Abyss."
Lao Jiang stroked his chin and looked towards the western horizon. At the end of his sight, he saw a dark and gloomy scene with an inky black sky, as if the sea level and the sky had merged into one, no longer distinguishable from each other.
"You troublemaker, don't go to the Sin Abyss, lest you cause trouble again and get thrown into the Sin Abyss by the Great Sage Linzhu."
Pomegranate grinned and said half sarcastically, half jokingly:
"When I went back to Yandangchi this time, my mother-in-law asked me to tell her about the scene of the Mo family showing off their power in the West Sea. She also watched the live broadcast that night.
My mother-in-law also asked me to tell fellow Taoist Zhuque that if there is any danger, to call her over to help.
But what puzzles me more is that, isn’t it said that the evil cultivators in the West Sea are ferocious? But this time I came here and saw with my own eyes that these evil cultivators are just like this.”
"That's because we have Mo Jun suppressing us, and you, a rookie, are following us, so we feel that evil cultivators are like that."
Lao Jiang snorted and said:
“Next time if you have the ability, come to the West Sea by yourself and take a walk around, and you will know whether the evil cultivators are fierce or not.
Those guys are bullies and cowards, and they all have good sense. How could they take the initiative to provoke me, Mo Shuangshan?
But if you think they are not worth worrying about just because of this, then you are out of your mind."
Speaking of this, Boss Jiang recalled what the Immortal Master Mo Chanyi said when he met him at Yandang Pond last time. Now that he thinks about it, every word of the Immortal Master Chanyi is truly a gem.
Old Jiang looked at the desolate scene around him and said with feeling:
“Ku Mu Realm is a place with rules after all. Although it can only restrain the middle and lower levels, as long as the Immortal Alliance exists, these evil cultivators will have to live with their tails between their legs.
Anyone who dares to show his head will be killed immediately.
If the Immortal Alliance ceased to exist one day, the evil cultivators would have a good time. With the pampered appearance of the Eastern Land cultivators, how could they be the opponents of these evil cultivators who only wanted to hurt people with clubs all day long?
Sure enough, no matter how bad the rules are, they are better than no rules at all."
"Hey! Jiang Xia, have you changed your temper today? Didn't you hate the rules of the Immortal Alliance the most in the past? Why are you speaking well of them today?"
Pomegranate tilted his head and said:
"Are you trying to keep your head down and be a submissive citizen of the Immortal Alliance?"
"Hey, I'll be honest with you."
Boss Jiang crossed his arms and said softly:
“If I were in a serious world, I, Old Jiang, would obey and practice well according to the rules set by others, do some harmless bad things, and live a leisurely life with my fairy couple Xiao Bai Ze.
But unfortunately, our Ku Mu Territory is not serious.
Then don't blame me, Old Jiang, for asking the truth and finding out what kind of treasure this Immortal Alliance is trying so hard to hide. If I can't accept the truth, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Well said, brother!"
Shi Yan once again took advantage of Shi Liu's distraction and used a combo to knock Shi Liu's character to the ground. She stretched comfortably, gave Jiang Xia a thumbs up and said:
"We Mo family members have never been pedantic and weak. If the Immortal Alliance really has bad intentions, then we must turn this Ku Mu Realm upside down.
In the past, it was the master who suppressed me and Xiao Chuer and I from delving into the secrets. Ever since you came to the mountain, it is hard to predict the change in the master's attitude, but I think he will not stop us anymore.
If I really have the chance this time, I will go and see what the Immortal Alliance has been planning and what they are up to in the past five hundred years. "
They talked like this all the way, encouraging each other, and flew towards the core of the Xingluo Sea for more than half an hour. The Zouwu chariot leading the way suddenly changed direction and sped downwards.
The phoenix and wooden kite followed closely behind.
After passing through the thick, dark black fog, the group arrived at the island where the ruins of the Mohist main peak were located. This place was the same as other places around it.
There is no grass growing and the environment is harsh.
What's even more bizarre is that the ruins of the main peak are actually a mountain turned sideways, bare as a cone, and slanted top-heavy on the seabed.
It looks like a black flying peak.
“Master!”
When the Zouwu carriage landed on the beach which emitted a strange smell and still had the eerie remains of huge trenches and white bones, Liu Chu immediately flashed out from the bare island, landed in front of the head sect's carriage, and greeted Mo Jun to get off the carriage.
He nodded in the direction of the phoenix that was falling behind him. Shi Yan, supported by Jiang Xia, gracefully stepped down from the phoenix feathers, followed by several of his disciples, as well as Lao Jiang's spirit beast and bodyguards.
"The mountain gate has been dug out, and we are just waiting for the sect leader to come and activate the formation to open up the path to the main peak."
Liu Hui reported in a deep voice:
“But Sanbao has used secret methods to spy on the main peak. I’m afraid there are still remnants of the demonic energy from the sky five hundred years ago. Therefore, before we clear out the demonic energy, those who have not entered the realm of spiritual cultivation and have not cultivated their primordial spirits are not allowed to go deeper.”
"Um."
Mo Jun nodded and strode towards the cave dug deep into the ground on the black island in front of him. Everyone followed closely behind him and went down the cave. There were layers of stairs that went straight down to the ground for nearly a hundred meters.
Sanbao, Liu Chu and his disciples built a spacious hall at the bottom, lighting it with pearls, making it as bright as day. At the end of the hall was the excavated main peak gate.
It is the same size and appearance as the mountain gate carved out of the mountain on the side peak, but this mountain gate is sealed with a physical door.
Two huge obsidian rocks blocked the way ahead, one on the left and one on the right.
"Is this... the Dragon-Severing Spirit Seal?"
Shi Yan walked forward, followed the spiritual carvings on the mountain gate and touched a few places, then turned back to look at Mo Jun. She said in surprise:
"Master, did the Mohist sages cut off their own retreat?"
"In that situation, if we didn't cut off our own retreat, how could we stop the demon from wreaking havoc?"
When Mo Jun saw the old things in his memory, he was filled with emotion. While summoning the Mo Shuang Jade Book, the sect's spiritual treasure, he reached out and touched the huge obsidian door in front of him.
He said in a nostalgic tone:
"The great master opened the extraterritorial star array with his own hands, and countless demons rushed out crazily. In just a moment, they destroyed the sect's twenty-one mountain protection arrays. Although the sect's fellow disciples had made preparations in advance, who could have imagined that the demons would come with such a torrent of force?
As a last resort, the eldest senior brother used the method of breaking the dragon's spirit seal to separate the entire main peak realm from the Ku Mu realm, thus buying enough time for the subsequent powerful people to come to support.
This gentleman...
I am the last person to be sent away from the main peak before the Dragon Breaking Spirit Seal was opened."
At this point, Sect Leader Mo Jun was silent for a moment, as if recalling what happened in the past. He shook his head slightly and then said:
"Everyone, step aside. I am going to break the spiritual seal. If something comes out from inside, it must be killed! "
"Buzz"
Hearing the leader's order, everyone in the hall brought out their own magical weapons and killing weapons. People who were seeing flashes of light couldn't open their eyes, but Old Jiang was quite special.
He took out the Xuantian sword and activated it by injecting spiritual energy into it. The spiritual light flashed and there was a sense of pressure. The spiritual sword roared like a dragon and a tiger, and flew out of its sheath, flying around Lao Jiang.
Instead, he became the most handsome guy here.
"Click"
The head of the sect placed the Mo Shuang Jade Book into the groove on the Lingfeng Mountain Gate in front of him. As he pressed it down using the mechanism and twisted it nine scales, the entire bare island began to shake.
Mo Jun took a deep breath, stretched out his hands, and slowly opened the mountain gate in front of him.
The next moment, the light shining from it not only illuminated their eyes, but also swallowed up everyone around them.
