Shortly after the crowd left the palace, they found that the spiritual qi around them became unusually agitated. Mo Wenjie frowned and felt that something was wrong. Suddenly, the sky became overcast with dark clouds, and a slowly opening black crack emerged. A group of evil practitioners emerged from it. The leader of the evil practitioners sneered coldly: "Do you think this opportunity is so easy to get? All of them are traps we have deliberately set. Now, hand over your spiritual beads and treasures, and we can spare your full bodies." The women looked afraid, but Mo Wenjie remained calm. He stepped forward and said: "If you want to seize the treasure, just see if you have the ability." Afterwards, Mo Wenjie acted first and his sword light shone brightly. The women also gathered their courage to use their own magic spells to oppose him. However, there were too many evil practitioners with sinister means.
Just as the crowd was gradually outmatched, a mysterious force burst forth from Mo Wenjie's body. It turned out to be the energy he had absorbed from the Puppet Giant before, which was now put to good use. Mo Wenjie's strength greatly increased, leading the women to break through the evil practitioners' encirclement and rush away into the distance, leaving behind only the angry roars of the evil practitioners.
The crowd arrived at a valley and stopped to catch their breath. Mo Wenjie was on high alert, observing his surroundings and said, "This place is temporarily safe, but we cannot stay here for long." The women huddled together to heal their wounds and restore their spiritual energy. Mo Wenjie, on the other hand, began to study the mysterious force within himself, trying to fully utilize it.
Suddenly, a melodious flute sound came from the valley's mouth. The crowd tensed up, seeing a white-robed youth walking leisurely. Mo Wenjie drew his sword to confront him, but the youth smiled and gestured that he meant no harm. It turned out that the youth was a secluded cultivator who had hidden here. He knew about the evil practitioners' conspiracy and came to offer assistance.
The youth took out a pill and said that this pill could help them hide their aura and avoid being tracked by the evil practitioners. Mo Wenjie hesitated for a moment before taking the pill and giving it to the women to consume.
Just after the crowd had swallowed the mysterious pill, an unexpected event occurred! The women who had been as delicate and radiant as flowers, suddenly turned a deep black color, followed by rolling their eyes and fainting straight away. This sudden change shocked everyone present.
Mo Wenjie widened his eyes and glared at the youth in front of him, his face full of anger. Meanwhile, the youth laughed derisively, the sound echoing throughout the space and sending shivers down everyone's spines. As the laughter faded, a strange black aura began to emanate from the youth's body. Gradually, his appearance underwent a shocking transformation—he was revealed to be no ordinary youth but a supernatural being that had transformed from the notorious leader of the evil practitioners!
Mo Wenjie's heart jolted, but he quickly regained his composure. Faced with such a treacherous situation, he showed no sign of hesitation. On the contrary, he took a deep breath and forcibly unleashed the powerful strength that had been suppressed within him for a long time. In an instant, his aura shone brightly, and an overwhelming presence surged from his body, starkly contrasting with the malevolent energy emanating from the evil practitioners' leader.
A fierce battle was about to erupt at any moment...
The leader of the evil practitioners narrowed his eyes, and quickly formed hand seals. A series of black symbols flew towards Mo Wenjie, who dodged the attacks with a flash of his body and swung his sword, forming a sword light that shot towards the enemy. The leader sneered, spat out a black flame, which instantly transformed into a huge black crow that flew towards the sword light. When they collided, a powerful shockwave occurred.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Mo Wenjie advanced and channeled his full spiritual power to the tip of his sword, plunging it directly at the chest of the leader of the evil practitioners. The leader of the evil practitioners dodged sideways and waved his arm, launching dark pins from his sleeve towards Mo Wenjie. Mo Wenjie felt danger approaching and activated a shield to fend off the pins. As soon as the shield blocked the pins, Mo Wenjie shouted loudly and a mysterious mark appeared on his forehead, emitting a strong beam of light that struck directly at the leader of the evil practitioners. The leader let out a scream of pain, flying backward through the air. He quickly regained his balance and an evil expression spread across his face.
At this moment, Mo Wenjie felt that the mysterious force within him was about to be depleted. He clenched his teeth and decided to use his final move. He closed his eyes, recited incantations, and his whole body converged into a large light ball. The leader of the evil practitioners sensed the threat and activated his strongest evil power. The two forces collided, and in the end, Mo Wenjie broke through the leader's defense with unwavering willpower, destroying him. Then he quickly checked on the condition of the women.
Mo Wenjie knelt down and examined the pulse of each woman one by one. Fortunately, it was only a kind of hypnotic poison, and once he found an antidote, they would wake up. Mo Wenjie searched through the remnants of the evil practitioners' leader meticulously and found a bottle of antidote in his storage ring. After giving the women the antidote, they gradually regained consciousness.
The women were immensely grateful to Mo Wenjie. Ling Xue blushed and said, "Big brother Mo, it's all because of you this time. From now on, we will certainly follow you." Mo Wenjie waved his hand, indicating that there was no need to thank him.
At this moment, he discovered an ancient stone tablet in the valley, covered in strange characters. Curiosity piqued, Mo Wenjie approached and touched the tablet. Suddenly, a flood of memories overwhelmed his mind. This was a cultivation method left by a great cultivator from ancient times! Overjoyed, Mo Wenjie sat down on the spot to contemplate. The women saw this and felt compelled to stay by his side.
After a long and arduous period of enlightenment, Mo Wenjie finally experienced that pivotal moment of breakthrough, like a butterfly emerging from its cocoon! In an instant, an overwhelming force surged out from his body, like a torrent breaking through all the constraints and limitations.
As this force surged forth, Mo Wenjie's body was surrounded by layer upon layer of magnificent and dazzling light, enveloping him completely. These lights were like lively sprites, jumping and dancing happily, as if they were celebrating their master's breakthrough and enlightenment.
As the light gradually subsided, Mo Wenjie slowly opened his eyes, a deep and boundless brilliance flashing in his pupils. At this moment, he had successfully broken through to a new realm, with his strength having undergone a qualitative leap forward.
Mo Wenjie took a deep breath and then slowly stood up. He stood tall and straight as a pine tree, his demeanor extraordinary and out of the ordinary, as if a immortal had descended to the mortal world. He looked slightly upwards, his gaze piercing through the thick mist in front of him to gaze far off at the continuous ranges of mountains that soared into the clouds. Those peaks were towering and majestic, appearing particularly splendid in the sunlight.
Gazing at this vast and boundless land, Mo Wenjie couldn't help but feel a sense of grandeur within his heart. He knew that although he had achieved certain accomplishments, there were still countless unknown secrets waiting for him to explore in this vast universe, as well as innumerable opportunities waiting for him to discover.
Moreover, in this world, there are countless evil forces like the evil practitioners who have done much harm. They trample upon justice, harm the innocent living beings, and bring endless disasters and suffering to the world. Mo Wenjie secretly vowed to use his increasingly enhanced strength to root out these evil creatures completely and restore peace and tranquility to the world.
Thinking of this, Mo Wenjie clenched his fists tightly, exuding a determined and fearless aura. He firmly believed that as long as he persevered in his cultivation efforts, he would become increasingly powerful and ultimately lead the many women around him on an even more spectacular and tumultuous path of cultivation!
Mo Wenjie led the women onward, seeking more opportunities for cultivation. One day, they arrived at the edge of a mysterious forest, shrouded in a faint mist that faintly hinted at something extraordinary.
As they entered the forest, a melodious song could be heard. They looked in the direction of the sound and saw a beautiful maiden singing on a branch. Several unusual spirit birds circled around her. Mo Wenjie felt alert, but the girl descended from the tree willingly and offered to lead them to a sacred spring. After consulting with his companions, Mo Wenjie decided to follow her.
Midway through their journey, the girl suddenly vanished, and vines surged out to trap them. It turned out to be another trap; a lurking demonic cultivator was envious of the good fortune of Mo Wenjie and his companions, so he had set this trap. Calming down, Mo Wenjie tried to harness the power from his recent breakthrough and discovered that he could channel the surrounding spiritual energy into blades to sever the vines.
The other women also used their abilities to break free from the vines. Mo Wenjie pointed to the location where the demonic cultivator was hiding and charged towards him. After a fierce battle, Mo Wenjie defeated the demonic cultivator with his superior strength and warned him not to commit any more evil deeds. Then, Mo Wenjie followed the clues he remembered and indeed found the sacred spring. The women used it to improve their cultivation, and Mo Wenjie continued to advance towards higher realms.
Just as Mo Wenjie and the women were immersed in the joy of cultivating their powers, the sacred spring suddenly shook violently. The water boiled over, and a brilliantly transparent jade plaque flew out from within. Mo Wenjie reached out and caught it. Intricate ancient characters glimmered on the plaque, seemingly pointing to a mysterious location. Mo Wenjie decided to investigate further.
The group followed the direction indicated by the jade plaque and entered a sealed cave. The cave walls were etched with various rare cultivation techniques and formations. As they marveled, deep growls of anger echoed from the depths of the cave. A massive divine beast slowly emerged, its eyes red and full of hostility. Mo Wenjie realized that this was a guardian spirit beast of the place, perhaps they had triggered some mechanism that angered it.
Mo Wenjie stepped forward to explain their intentions, hoping that the spirit beast would allow them to view the treasures and learn cultivation techniques within the cave. The spirit beast seemed to understand his words, and although its hostility diminished slightly, it still kept a watchful eye on them.
Mo Wenjie and the women around him held their breath and focused intently as they carefully moved forward. Everyone was on edge, not daring to make any reckless moves. For just a short distance ahead, a massive divine beast was lying in wait, exuding a powerful aura and looking like it could sense any slight disturbance.
Mo Wenjie took a deep breath, subtly mobilizing the powerful spiritual energy within his body, trying to establish a connection with the mysterious spirit beast. He condensed the spiritual energy into his palm and gently pushed it towards the direction of the spirit beast, simultaneously sending out messages of friendship and goodwill silently in his heart. However, his first attempt did not elicit a response; the spirit beast continued to coldly watch this group of uninvited guests.
Mo Wenjie did not give up. He gathered his energy once more, adjusted the frequency and intensity of the spiritual energy output, and conveyed his desire to communicate more clearly. As time passed one minute at a time, just as the group was about to lose their patience, they saw a faint light flash in the spirit beast's eyes. Then, it slightly lowered its head, as if it had abandoned some of its guard.
Seeing this, Mo Wenjie's heart leaped with joy. He quickly signaled the women behind him to remain silent. Then, he carefully moved forward a few steps and stopped at a place close to the spirit beast. At this moment, the spirit beast unexpectedly roared deeply, although its voice was deafening, there was no malice within it. In this way, after a great deal of effort, Mo Wenjie successfully won the trust of the spirit beast and obtained permission to stay in the cave temporarily.
Mo Wenjie and the women knew that this was a rare opportunity, so they hurried to seize the time and began to study the precious knowledge hidden in the cave, which contained numerous mysteries. This knowledge covered various aspects such as cultivation techniques, weapon forging, and the laws of heaven and earth. Each item was of crucial importance for enhancing their own power.
