Those demons and monsters thought so, but they did not know that Mo Wenjie was also strong. Their self-righteous actions actually harmed them!
Just as that group of demons and monsters rushed toward Mo Wenjie with their fangs bared, Mo Wenjie's lips curved up slightly. He quickly made a hand seal with both hands, and a golden beam burst out from his palm, instantly transforming into a huge net of spiritual power. The little demons who rushed forward first were directly enveloped by the net and unable to move, emitting shrieks of agony.
The ghosts and monsters behind, upon seeing this, were greatly frightened, but it was too late. Mo Wenjie's figure flashed, moving through the demons and monsters like a wraith, and an icy-cold spirit sword appeared in his hand at some point. With every swing, he raised a mist of blood. The demons and ghosts in front of him seemed as fragile as ants and could not withstand his attacks.
In just a moment, the arrogant demons and monsters were lying in all directions, sprawled out like a mess. Mo Wenjie sheathed his sword and stood upright, his expression calm as if he had just done a small thing. The bloodstench around him dissipated completely after a slight wave of his sleeve, leaving only silence to witness the fierce battle that had just taken place.
How could the Black Dragon be unaware of the thoughts of those demons and monsters? As someone who was once a mighty being, how could it fail to detect the situation around it? It simply didn't want to intervene to solve those troubles. It left those demons and monsters for Mo Wenjie, hoping that this would give Mo Wenjie face in front of his Daoist partner. Now, its wish has been fulfilled. His Daoist partners must be incredibly happy!
Mo Wenjie turned and walked towards his partners, their eyes filled with admiration and affection. Jiang Yu Rou softly said, "Big brother Mo, you're just too awesome." Mo Wenjie affectionately stroked her head.
At this moment, the Black Dragon slowly flew over to Mo Wenjie's side, its deep voice echoing, "Brother, you did a great job. But this is just the beginning. There are even stronger beings waiting for you ahead." Mo Wenjie's eyes were firm as he said, "I will naturally not be afraid of challenges."
Suddenly, the sky changed, and a powerful pressure descended. A dark cloud rapidly approached, with lightning flashing within. Mo Wenjie's heart skipped a beat as he tightened his fists. The Black Dragon burst into laughter: "Hahaha! The main character finally appears. This is getting interesting." In fact, there was an ancient demon behind the group of demons and monsters who was secretly controlling them. Seeing all of his subordinates wiped out, he could no longer contain himself and came forward personally to accuse them. Mo Wenjie took a deep breath and protected his partners behind him, preparing for the impending battle. The Black Dragon, on the other hand, retreated to the sidelines with interest to watch the fight. It believed that Mo Wenjie would once again create a miracle.
I am the West Mountain Elder Demon. Why do you think you can kill my disciples and grandchildren here on the roadside? None of you will escape today. I will kill you and absorb your spiritual energy. You can discuss among yourselves, who will be the first to die?
Mo Wenjie stepped forward and loudly said, "The West Mountain Elder Demon, your disciples and grandchildren have committed evil deeds and harmed others. We are simply acting to protect the people." The West Mountain Elder Demon was enraged and laughed: "Humph, you small human immortal, how dare you argue with me. Take a look!" As he spoke, a black spiritual force shot like an arrow towards Mo Wenjie.
Mo Wenjie made a hand seal with both hands, a shield appearing in front of him, easily blocking the attack. The West Mountain Elder Demon saw this and intensified his attack, the spiritual energy in the sky crossing each other at once. Although Mo Wenjie was exerting his maximum effort to defend, he was slowly finding it hard to keep up.
At that moment, the Black Dragon suddenly rushed into the battle circle and spat a dragon breath at the West Mountain Elder Demon. The West Mountain Elder Demon couldn't avoid it and was hit by the dragon breath, swaying back and forth. Mo Wenjie took the chance and summoned his treasure, a beam of intense light shooting directly at the West Mountain Elder Demon. The West Mountain Elder Demon cried out in agony, with multiple wounds appearing on his body.
However, the West Mountain Elder Demon had been cultivating for several thousand years, and he quickly regained his composure. His eyes turned red with anger as he roared towards Mo Wenjie and the Black Dragon. Mo Wenjie and the Black Dragon exchanged a glance, both of them simultaneously unleashing their ultimate attack. With a burst of dazzling light and a massive roar, the West Mountain Elder Demon was finally annihilated into dust and smoke. Mo Wenjie took a deep breath, and his partners cheered up, surrounding him.
The Black Dragon looked at Huang Ling'er, Qin Xiao Di, Jiang Yu Rou, Xiao Ya Wen, Ding Yan, and Tuo Ya Ying. The admiration they had for Mo Wenjie filled their eyes. The Black Dragon was very happy. He had never expected his little brother to have such a wonderful encounter and for them to be able to unite in such a way. It seems that the relationship between them is very deep indeed!
The Black Dragon was just secretly relieved when a strong and evil aura suddenly appeared in the distance. The crowd's expression changed, and Mo Wenjie alertly looked towards the distance. The sky at the horizon was filled with dark clouds that quickly rushed over, and within the cloud layer, it seemed as though there were countless blood-red eyes flickering.
"Not good, it must be the West Mountain Elder Demon and his followers coming for revenge." The Black Dragon said gravely.
The various women surrounded Mo Wenjie, their hands tightly gripping their respective magical items.
Mo Wenjie calmed down and said, "Don't panic, we have just gone through a battle, although there have been some losses, we are not without any counter-attack strength. Brother Black Dragon, this time it is probably necessary to rely on your power again." The Black Dragon nodded.
As the dark clouds drew closer, a group of ghostly demons emerged. Mo Wenjie charged forward first, his spiritual sword slicing through the air, creating streams of sword qi. The women unleashed their magic to assist, creating a moment of colorful light and sword qi complementing each other. The Black Dragon soared into the sky, spewing dragon breath continuously from its mouth. Despite their numbers, the demons were no match for Mo Wenjie and his companions who fought in perfect harmony. After a fierce battle, they finally annihilated all the demons. Mo Wenjie looked towards the horizon, feeling a sense of admiration in his heart, acknowledging that the path of cultivation indeed brims with challenges.
However, the Black Dragon burst into laughter, "The more difficult the journey, the more one should charge forward. Danger and opportunities are present simultaneously. We have not encountered any dangers so far because others have solved them, and they have taken away the opportunities. So we can only continue moving forward!"
Mo Wenjie, after listening to the words of Brother Black Dragon, his eyes became determined: "Brother Black Dragon is right, we cannot retreat."
The women echoed in unison: "Yes, we go forward together."
Thus, the group continued along the mountain path. Shortly after, a portal emitting strange light appeared in front of them. The surrounding symbols were flashing, exuding an ancient and mysterious aura.
The Black Dragon exclaimed with excitement: "Given its appearance, there must be a significant opportunity behind this door."
Mo Wenjie approached cautiously, trying to touch the portal with his spiritual power. After a wave of fluctuations, the portal slowly opened, revealing an orchard of spiritual plants, with various rare herbs emitting alluring aromas.
However, just as the group was excited, a dense mist rose up in the orchard, and a massive illusory beast appeared. Its body resembled a tiger, but had nine tails, each one waving that sent powerful illusions.
Mo Wenjie took a deep breath: "It seems this is the guardian of this place. We must be cautious." As he spoke, he clenched his spiritual sword once again and charged towards the illusory beast. The women and the Black Dragon also unleashed their respective abilities, attacking the new crisis head-on.
To their surprise, the illusory beast actually spoke: "You few unrefined immortals dare to covet the spiritual herbs here. Do you know that killing you is just a thought away? As long as you do not step into the spiritual herb garden, I will let you go. Otherwise, none of you will survive!"
The Black Dragon laughed loudly and said, "I said, can you even have a little face? Do you know what kind of thing you are? You're a tiger spirit and a nine-tailed fox mixed together, and yet here you are. Your mentors must be ashamed of you. It's not Li Guai who took you in and let you guard the spiritual herb garden, but Tie Guai Li who did so. You really think you're Li Cui?"
The illusory beast, hearing the Black Dragon's words, immediately became enraged and roared: "How dare you so shame me!" Its aura suddenly increased by several times, and its nine tails danced wildly. For a moment, it seemed as if the space around it was distorted.
Mo Wenjie shouted: "Everyone be careful, it's going to launch a powerful attack!" The group prepared themselves. They saw the illusory beast open its mouth and spew a stream of black flames. Wherever the flames touched, the ground instantly turned into black ashes and melted. The Black Dragon turned into a dark shadow and charged forward, spewing icy blue cold breath from its mouth in an attempt to counteract the flames. The women then cast spells, sending beams of spiritual light towards the illusory beast.
Although the illusory beast was strong, the group fought together, making it difficult for the illusory beast to withstand. Suddenly, the illusory beast's eyes shone brightly, and it rushed towards a tree in Mo Wenjie's rear, evidently wanting to destroy the most precious thing here to intimidate others. Mo Wenjie saw this and ignored the danger, teleporting to block in front of the tree. With a swing of his spiritual sword, he even cut off one of the beast's tails. The illusory beast let out pained cries but looked at Mo Wenjie's resolute expression and ultimately said reluctantly: "Alright alright, just take some of these spiritual herbs and leave today."
Mo Wenjie looked at Huang Ling'er, Qin Xiao Di, Jiang Yu Rou, Xiao Ya Wen, Ding Yan, and Tuo Ya Ying. "Hurry up and dig the spiritual herbs. They are very useful in enhancing your strength. We don't have much time here, so don't waste it!"
After hearing Mo Wenjie's instructions, the women scattered to search for the spiritual herbs. Huang Ling'er, with her keen eyes, was the first to discover a plant emitting a rainbow of colors, and she was about to reach out to pluck it when she felt the ground beneath her tremble slightly.
"Bad, there's a trap!" Mo Wenjie shouted loudly. But it was too late. Suddenly, a circle of stone pillars rose around Huang Ling'er, trapping her within. Then, rays of light shot out from the pillars, forming a light barrier.
Mo Wenjie rushed towards the light barrier, attempting to split it with his spiritual sword, but when the sword touched the barrier, only sparks flew up, and it was useless. The other women also gathered around, anxiously watching Huang Ling'er trapped inside.
At this moment, the illusory beast laughed coldly: "This is a restriction to protect the spiritual herbs. Once triggered, it can only be broken by finding the corresponding inscribed stone, and that inscribed stone is hidden somewhere in this spiritual herb garden. But with the time you have left, you're unlikely to find it."
Mo Wenjie's eyes were resolute: "We will definitely find it." After saying that, he led the women to search carefully, not missing any suspicious place. Finally, under an inconspicuous grass clump, they found a sparkling inscribed stone, successfully rescued Huang Ling'er and dug up many spiritual herbs.
