’That kid actually devoured and fused with the Void Spirit Flame so quickly. He can even use some of its power to form a Spatial Blade. His aptitude is impressive.’
Elder Ku Mu had been secretly observing Mo Qi, watching his every move.
He believed Mo Qi’s ability to form the Spatial Blade was entirely dependent on the Void Spirit Flame, failing to realize that Mo Qi had actually already comprehended a portion of the Space Law.
It wasn’t that Elder Ku Mu’s perception was lacking; he simply never even considered the possibility.
For a Vajra Realm cultivator to comprehend the Space Law was as absurd as an ant tearing a hole in the sky.
’His Mental Realm Transformation is interesting. It can actually block an attack from someone at the Peak of the Void Realm. He’s got some real skill; he hasn’t brought shame upon that wild girl.’
’This kid certainly has guts, though. He knows so many people are after him, yet he still hasn’t tried to escape.’
’Hm? What’s that pig doing?’
’Attaboy. Turning the tables, are we? It seems this little test is too easy for you. In that case, I’ll turn up the heat!’
At the same time, the many Immortals waiting outside the Desperate Mountain Range received a message from Elder Ku Mu.
"To make this bounty more interesting, I have decided to open the Desperate Mountain Range to all. From this moment on, regardless of cultivation level or status, anyone who wishes to enter may do so."
"However, there is one condition: you must suppress your Cultivation to the Void Realm or below. Anyone who dares to use a Cultivation level exceeding the Void Realm... dies!"
His words immediately caused a considerable stir among the crowd.
The Desperate Mountain Range was an incredible Treasure. Even these revered Immortals coveted it greatly.
Before, due to the rules set by Elder Ku Mu, they could do nothing but wait.
Now Elder Ku Mu had changed the rules, allowing them to join in themselves. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
If they could find and kill Mo Qi, they could claim ownership of the Desperate Mountain Range!
The temptation was too great!
At once, numerous Immortals sealed their Dantians, suppressing their Cultivation to the Peak of the Void Realm before eagerly entering the Desperate Mountain Range.
"Hahaha, the heavens are on my side!" He Jincheng roared with laughter.
The clan patriarch had given him only three days to retrieve the Void Spirit Flash Flame. Originally, his only hope had been to rely on the younger generation to enter the Desperate Mountain Range and investigate.
But now, he could personally lead dozens of Immortals into the mountains to find Mo Qi.
If he could find him, not only would he retrieve the Void Spirit Flash Flame and avenge He Jinbo, but he would also get the Desperate Mountain Range—and maybe even the Earth-Level Fire Seed of Void Spirit Flame!
Four birds with one stone!
"Send word back to the family! Summon more people!"
...
In a valley within the Desperate Mountain Range, more than ten thousand young men and women were gathered together. They had released their Grotto Heavens and linked them to form a massive protective umbrella that enveloped them all.
Their faces were weary and nearly everyone was injured, but no one dared to let their guard down.
They were consuming Elixirs to replenish their True Essence while continuously channeling energy into the Grotto Heavens.
Because outside the Pocket World Protection Umbrella, wave after wave of Abyssal Demons threw themselves at the barrier, shrieking as they launched a furious assault.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The colossal sound of the impacts was endless.
And it wasn’t just the Abyssal Demons; there were also formidable Demon Beasts.
With bloodshot eyes, they all attacked the Pocket World Protection Umbrella with abandon, as if their mortal enemies were trapped inside.
"Have these Demon Beasts and Abyssal Demons gone mad? Brother Feng Qing, at this rate, we won’t last much longer before they break through." The speaker was a pale, round-faced young man named Sun Shou, a prodigy from the Sun Family of Yunfeng City.
The one he called Feng Qing was a tall, slender young man with narrow eyebrows.
He was one of the few in the crowd whose expression remained untroubled.
"Just hold on a little longer," Feng Qing said. "With a commotion this big, someone is bound to come. When they do, we’ll attack from both the inside and outside. We’ll definitely be able to drive back these animals."
Sun Shou nodded at his words and said no more.
Yunfeng City’s City Lord was a member of the Feng Family. And while there was no formal hierarchy of command between them and the other families, the Feng Family was unquestionably one of the most powerful forces in the city.
As a prodigy of the Feng Family’s younger generation, Feng Qing commanded great prestige.
Thus, the crowd had gradually formed a group with Feng Qing at its core, looking to him for leadership.
No one noticed the strange, sinister glint that flashed in the depths of Feng Qing’s eyes as he spoke.
...
Ten li from the valley, Mo Qi found the Pig Emperor.
Looking at the dense, tide-like swarm of Abyssal Demons, even Mo Qi was startled.
He did a quick estimate: there were over one hundred thousand Abyssal Demons.
And as time passed, more and more Abyssal Demons were continuously joining the horde.
"Pig Emperor, what on earth did you do?" Mo Qi asked.
He had arranged with the Pig Emperor for it to attract a group of Abyssal Demons, intending to use them against the Cultivators who were trying to encircle him.
Then, he would manipulate the situation to reap a huge profit.
He had never imagined the Pig Emperor would blow things so far out of proportion.
The Pig Emperor looked completely innocent. "This Emperor has no idea what happened," it said. "I only lured a dozen or so Abyssal Demons to surround one small human squad."
"Who knew that the squad would call for backup when they couldn’t win? More people showed up, which attracted more Abyssal Demons, and the whole thing just spiraled out of control."
Mo Qi pointed to the Demon Beasts mixed in with the Abyssal Demons. "And what’s their story?" he asked.
The Pig Emperor chuckled. "This Emperor got bored while waiting for you, so I raided their nests and pinned it on these poor saps."
"Heh heh, and I found quite a bit of good stuff. It was great."
Mo Qi was speechless. This had gotten out of hand and seemed to be beyond his control.
’Then again, this might be for the best. With so many people gathered, I can just wipe them all out in one go and save some time.’
"Mo the kid, think you can handle a bite this big?" the Pig Emperor asked.
Mo Qi thought for a moment. "I can," he said. "But the plan has to change. We can’t just go in hard."
As he spoke, Mo Qi rubbed his face, using his control over muscle and bone to transform his features into the spitting image of Qian Duoduo. Even his aura became a perfect match.
"Incredible," the Pig Emperor said, smacking its lips and tapping a trotter. "If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, even this Emperor would have been fooled."
Having achieved Great Success with his Nine Transformations into Spirit Body, Mo Qi could change into any form and replicate any aura he wished.
Unless he himself revealed a flaw, no one would be able to tell the difference.
Gu Peng, standing to the side, was completely dumbstruck—not just by Mo Qi, but also by the sky-blotting swarm of Abyssal Demons.
’Wait!’
’What is he going to do?’
"Brother Gu, remember this: from now on, my name is Liu Hui, and I’m your cousin."
Mo Qi clapped Gu Peng on the shoulder. Without waiting for a response, he pulled him forward a single step and, using the Space Law, instantly teleported them directly into the crowd in the valley.
Everyone’s attention was fixed on the Abyssal Demons outside. Coupled with Mo Qi deliberately concealing the spatial fluctuations and their auras, no one noticed his and Gu Peng’s sudden arrival.
