Chapter 625: Meeting Pei Fengwu Again

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Mo Wen studied his surroundings. Other than the main road, all he could see were houses. Large and small yards were arranged in an orderly manner. There did not seem to be any monstrous beasts in the houses. It looked as if Mo Wen would be safe if he hid in them.

However, Mo Wen only gave them a quick glance before dismissing the idea. There must be a reason why the monstrous beasts had not dared to enter the houses.

As well as Mo Wen, some other human warriors were on the main road. Not far away in front of him, were a few warriors. Mo Wen recognized one of them immediately. “It’s her?” he thought to himself.

The woman he was looking at wore a white dress and was slender and lithe. She held a long sword in her hand which glinted in the light and fell a monstrous beast. It was Pei Fengwu, whom he had not seen in a long time. She and Jun Wulei and a few others had entered the beast lair at the same time. He had not expected to see her here.

Pei Fengwu was already ahead of all the other warriors at this point in time and was facing the two terrifying monstrous beasts.

“We have not seen each other in a long while and her cultivation levels have already reached such a stage.” There was a flash of surprise in Mo Wen’s eyes. Earlier, Pei Fengwu had been stuck at the beginning stage of the Golden Elixir realm. She had already broken through to the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm now. Furthermore, with her innate talent and skills, she would be able to hold her ground against an ancient martial arts practitioner at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm.

Pei Fengwu was the leader of the Fengwu team. Even though Mo Wen was a member of the team, he did not know much about her. Pei Fengwu’s identity and level of support must be complicated and advanced for her to be able to appear here.

There was a flash of light and a red scorpion about a meter long attempted to sneak up on Mo Wen. It appeared in front of Mo Wen as fast as lightning, intending to bring death. It was like the grim reaper. Its curved tail moved to viciously pierce his throat.

Mo Wen reached out and grabbed the red scorpion by its tail. Then he raised his hand and threw it down forcefully. The scorpion was tossed into the air and then smashed into a house.

The scorpion made chilling sounds as if it had encountered something terrifying. After a moment, the creature fell silent and the house once again was quiet.

Mo Wen’s pupils shrank slightly. The houses were indeed odd. No wonder the monstrous beasts had not dared to enter the houses.

Pei Fengwu was currently blocked by the enormous monstrous beasts. The combat abilities of the two monstrous beasts were beyond that of a human warrior at the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm. Pei Fengwu would not be able to defeat one beast, much less two of them.

However, all she needed to do was to pass by them. There was no need for her to fight to the death with the two beasts.

Roar Roar! The Fire Bull Monstrous Beast and the Fire Ape Monstrous Beast would not allow a human to pass. They roared angrily when they saw that a human had dared to barge by them.

The Fire Ape Monstrous Beast beat its chest with its fists. A terrifying red windstorm spread. A red light covered ground within a 30-mile radius. The temperature rose madly. Some of the lower level monstrous beasts that could not dodge in time turned into ashes in the red light before they could even scream.

The red light moved forward quickly, wrapping Pei Fengwu in it. The area under attack was so large that it could not be dodged. As the road was only 50 meters wide, one could not avoid the red light unless they flew into the air.

The pillar of red light was filled with destructive energy. Even a warrior in the late stages of the Golden Elixir realm would not be able to last long in the pillar of light.

A ray of crystal white light emitted from a string of beads worn on Pei Fengwu’s pale wrist. The beads shone brightly and were beautiful. There were seven white beads on the string. One of them shone especially brightly. When the brilliance on the pearl shone at its brightest, a white glow surrounded Pei Fengwu. The glow had extraordinary power, making a space in the red pillar of light which allowed a person within the white glow to remain unaffected.

Roar! The fire ape roared and moved its enormous body. It lifted its foot and kicked viciously at Pei Fengwu. Its foot was several square meters wide and it fell like a meteorite.

The bead bracelet on Pei Fengwu’s wrist shone again. This time, another white bead shone. In the next moment, a large hand made of white light appeared above her head. The large hand made an upward gesture and caught the fire ape’s foot.

Roar! The fire ape was enraged. Its attacks had been blocked by an insignificant human being. He felt ashamed. A circle of fire appeared from its body and a terrifying aura could be felt. The power of a monstrous beast at the peak of the seventh rank appeared.

However, the fire ape had not yet had the chance to attack when a white bead on the bracelet shone again. In the next moment, Pei Fengwu’s figure was like a spiral of smoke that dispersed with the wind. When she appeared again, she was 30 meters away from where she had been. She had successfully passed the fire ape.

“It’s another set of spiritual weapons.” There was a flash of shock in Mo Wen’s eyes. The white beads on Pei Fengwu’s wrist was evidently a set of spiritual weapons. Each bead was a simple spiritual weapon, but when linked together, their strength combined, increasing each beads’ strength and making up for their weaknesses. It was similar to the Five Beast Hoops of the Five Beast Sect. However, Pei Fengwu’s bead bracelet was evidently much more valuable.

Each white bead was equivalent to a spiritual weapon and there were seven in total. Each bead functioned differently. It was more remarkable than some profound level weapons. Apart from being less powerful than a profound level weapon, the bead bracelet was beyond some profound level weapons in several aspects.

The person who had crafted the bracelet was definitely a master at weapon refinement. The bracelet’s worth was beyond that of profound level weapons in the immortal cultivation world.

Such an amazing spiritual weapon had unexpectedly appeared in the hands of a warrior. The warrior sects of this world really could not be underestimated.

The Fire Ape Monstrous Beast could not block Pei Fengwu and neither could the Fire Bull Monstrous Beast. With the protection of the bracelet, even though Pei Fengwu could not defeat those monsters, it was not too difficult for her to pass them.

Mo Wen followed closely behind Pei Fengwu, passing the crowd of monstrous beasts and arriving in front of the Fire Ape and Fire Bull. The two beasts had been about to turn around to attack Pei Fengwu. However, when they saw Mo Wen approaching, they stopped and roared incessantly, looking at him instead. They were enraged as someone had managed to get past them.

Roar! This time, the Fire Bull Monstrous Beast charged first. It was covered in flames and its horns were enormous. It had a vertical third eye in the middle of its forehead.

The furious Fire Bull did not hold back when it attacked Mo Wen. The vertical eye in the middle of its forehead shot out rays of brilliant red light that gathered and flashed upon him.

Mo Wen shook. With his current ability, he could not dodge the red light which moved at an extraordinary speed. The red light hit him and his body felt as if it was sealed in a large block of cold ice. His body grew stiffer and stiffer.

“Inherent Skills.” There was a flash of surprise in Mo Wen’s eyes. The bull beast had stunning talent. Monstrous beasts usually did not have any special talents or skills. Their combat abilities were based on their natural strength. The higher the rank of the monstrous beast, the stronger their combat ability.

Only legendary demons had innate talent. Some devil clans had one or several types of inherent skills. This was the greatest strength of the devil clan. Such abilities would usually be passed on to the younger generations of the clan.

It was rare for monstrous beasts to have inherent skills. They were usually direct descendants of the devil clan but did not have pure blood. As such, they could not become demons but had the inherent skills of them. These monstrous beasts with inherent skills were stronger in ability and status compared to regular monstrous beasts. The potential they had was naturally higher as well.

The seven major beast kings of the fire domain were all monstrous beasts with inherent skills. They could become beast kings because of their noble bloodline.

The fire bull demon clearly thought highly enough of Mo Wen to use its inherent skills immediately.

Roar! The fire ape demon took a large step forward while the fire bull sealed Mo Wen, making it impossible for him to move. It swung its fist, which was covered in a circle of golden flames, heavily at Mo Wen. The terrifying temperature caused the air to crackle. The force of its fist was capable of killing even a late Golden Elixir realm warrior. It could simply turn a person to ashes.

Mo Wen sighed. Pei Fengwu had gotten him into trouble. She had been the first to pass the two monstrous beasts and now they were using him to vent their anger. They had decided to go all in against him the very moment they had seen him approaching. He was no match for the beast kings; it would be extremely difficult for him to defeat the monstrous beasts at the peak of the seventh rank.

Mo Wen unleashed rays of lightning. The glory of thunder swirled in his body. His aura went up a notch, and then more than doubled in an instant. The terrifying power finally allowed him to break through the fire bull’s seal and he escaped in a flash.

The fire ape’s punch brushed by Mo Wen’s shoulder. It was a close shave and the destructive aura remained in the air.

Mo Wen did not hesitate and immediately used the Glory of Wind. His figure was like a gentle breeze and he floated past the two monstrous beasts at an odd angle. The monstrous beasts had not even reacted. The Glory of Wind was rapid and amazing. Its speed was stunning.

After passing by the two monstrous beasts, Mo Wen did not stop and hurried on towards the square in the center of the city. He traveled more than a thousand meters in the blink of an eye. The square slowly appeared before him. He glanced at it and took a deep breath. There were six enormous beast kings, each guarding one of the six roads leading to the square.

Should he charge through the beast kings? Mo Wen thought that this idea was a little wild. He might die at the hands of the beast kings if he was not careful. The beast king blocking the main path was the Giant Crocodile Beat King that had tried to kill Mo Wen earlier.

He immediately glanced at his surroundings. There were a few human warriors behind him, and he gave a small sigh of relief.

Indeed, some martial arts grandmasters had arrived here earlier but had not yet acted. Instead, they were glaring at the Giant Crocodile Beast King as they waited for more help to arrive.

Mo Wen approached the warriors silently. It was much safer to stand together with human warriors right now. It was too dangerous for him to go past the Giant Crocodile Beast King alone. It would be different if everyone went past him together.

The human warriors must be from the same sect. Pei Fengwu was among them, standing beside a tall and skinny elder. Mo Wen could determine at first glance from the elder’s aura that the elder was a martial arts grandmaster with powerful cultivation.
