Chapter 637: The Appearance of Demonic Sky
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Even though Mo Wen had been very strong earlier on, he had not been this powerful.
Pei Fengwu had known Gong Zhangyan for many years and knew how strong he was. Even in the four major inner worlds, he was a famous talented youth. Even now that she had broken through to the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir Realm, she still was not confident that she could defeat Gong Zhangyan. However, Mo Wen had injured Gong Zhangyan easily. It had just been a few days. How did he get this strong? Injuring a warrior at the pinnacle of the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir Realm in just one move was something that even warriors at the later stage of the Golden Elixir Realm would find difficult.
Granny Jin Hua stood beside Jin Ying. A flash of light shone in her eyes as she looked at Mo Wen with some surprise. Jin Ying had told her that Mo Wen was very strong and very talented. She said that Mo Wen was a youth with potential. However, Granny Jin Hua only had Jin Ying’s word for it: she had not seen it for herself. Now, she discovered that the young man was indeed powerful.
He was so young, probably only about 20. He was probably the youngest person here. But in terms of power, amongst the younger generation, only the two geniuses of Ming Temple and Haokun Sect would be a match for him.
On the other side, Hou Jingfeng was standing with a group of warriors wearing white robes with images of the sun and moon embroidered on them. The people wearing these uniforms were definitely from the Ming Temple.
Bu Xingyi was standing beside Hou Jingfeng. He looked at Mo Wen darkly. He had now recognized Mo Wen as the rascal who had escaped from him. He was the rascal who had so much talent that he had terrified Bu Xingyi, and who had plenty of profound level weapons to make him even more of a threat.
Bu Xingyi had borne a grudge against him after he fled the last time. He had treated that incident as an embarrassment to him and had never mentioned it to anyone else. He did not expect to meet the young scoundrel again after only a few days,
“One day, I will squish you under my feet and shame you.” Hou Jingfeng punched the air, making whooshing sounds. Mo Wen had treated him with contempt earlier, and that scene had made him feel ashamed every time he thought about it. No one of his own age had ever treated him like that.
“Feng’er, do you know him?” Bu Xingyi looked at Hou Jingfeng. Hou Jingfeng’s emotional reaction had been so strong, it had naturally caught the attention of the martial arts grandmaster.
“I do. We had a disagreement some time ago.” Hou Jingfeng did not dare to disregard what Bu Xingyi said. As the elder of the Ming Temple, he was second to the Temple Leader in terms of power.
“Yes.” An odd glint appeared in Bu Xingyi’s eyes as he nodded. “He is a genius and is quite capable. Be careful in your encounters with him.”
“Jingfeng understands,” Hou Jingfeng said respectfully.
Bu Xingyi did not tell him that Mo Wen had a number of profound level weapons. He knew that once the sect elders found out about it, the weapons that he got from Mo Wen would not belong to him. Furthermore, Mo Wen also had immortal cultivators’ puppets that were enticing to him as well. That was equivalent to a pinnacle-level martial arts grandmaster.
“It’s fine, as long as you understand.” Bu Xingyi smiled and looked at Hou Jingfeng meaningfully. He did not say anything else. He had interacted with Mo Wen before and naturally knew Mo Wen’s secrets. Hou Jingfeng’s little secrets could not be hidden from him. In fact, he had already told another higher-ranking sect grand elder from the Ming Temple about Mo Wen.
“Qian’er, that youth’s abilities are no weaker than yours. I fear that he is much more talented than you.” On the altar, amongst another group of warriors, an elderly woman in green narrowed her eyes as she spoke to a beautiful young man.
The youth that she was talking about was Mo Wen. His exchange with Gong Zhangyan had already attracted the attention of everyone present. Nobody had expected that the young man who had appeared suddenly was so powerful. Most importantly, there were so many sects gathered here today, but not a single person knew him.
They all knew at least some things about the young geniuses who had some fame in the four large inner worlds. It was rare for there to be a youth to appear suddenly and be unknown to them.
“He might not be as powerful as me. The power he showed earlier was not his. He must have used a secret method that could cause his cultivation levels to increase wildly in an instant.” The handsome youth, who had a tiny pale face, glanced at Mo Wen. Then, he looked away and did not look at him again as he spoke indifferently. It seemed that he did not think much of Mo Wen.
“Have you practiced to the fourth level of the Haokun Qi Viewing Skill, allowing you to see that? I have underestimated you.” The elderly woman in green looked at Hao Qian in surprise. The fourth level of the Haokun Qi Viewing Skill meant that he had reached the fourth level of Haokun skills. It was indeed commendable that he had practiced the Haokun skills to such a high level at such a young age.
“I broke into the fourth level not too long ago and had not had the time to report it to Master yet.” Hao Qian pursed his lips and bowed respectfully.
“You don’t have to try to hide your thoughts from me. It’s alright. In terms of talent, you should not be any weaker than that youth,” the elderly woman said.
Her disciple had not reported the news to her because he was competing with a few other extremely talented people in the four large inner worlds. She liked this competitive mindset in young people. She had managed to get to where she was right now because she had emerged victorious time and time again when she was younger. She was a martial arts grandmaster and could tell that Mo Wen had used a special secret method earlier. However, no matter what kind of secret methods he used, he would not have succeeded in cultivating in them if he did not have the foundation for it. The youth’s abilities could not be doubted. Her disciple was a little too full of himself.
All the other sects were all talking about Mo Wen in the same way the Ming Temple and the Haokun Sect were.
“That young man is so powerful. Could he be one of the ten geniuses in the mystery dimension?”
“He’s so young. When has there been such a young genius in the ancient martial arts world?”
“He must be slightly lacking in power compared to the top ten geniuses in the mystery dimension. However, he is still young. He should be able to become one of the top ten geniuses in the future.”
“Isn’t Hao Qian of the Haokun Sect number nine amongst the top ten geniuses? As long as he can defeat Hao Qian, or be comparable to him, it could be said that he is comparable to the top ten geniuses of the mystery dimension.”
“Don’t joke around. This youth has obviously used a special secret method to take Gong Zhangyan by surprise and defeat him. Can’t you see that his aura is dropping now? How would it be possible for him to defeat the young powerhouse Hao Qian?”
The warriors of Yinyuan Sect all looked grave. They could ignore the others discussing Mo Wen, but they were now talking about Gong Zhangyan of the Yinyuan sect, saying how arrogant Gong Zhangyan was and how he did not have any skills at all. They said that he looked down on everyone else but was defeated when he encountered a real genius. Yinyuan Sect had been proud that they had a genius like Gong Zhangyan in their sect not long ago. One could guess how they were feeling when they heard what people were saying now.
“Gao Hanshan, is Gao Clan going to turn on our Yinyuan Sect as well?” Gong Xingyu asked with a frosty expression.
“If you regard Mo Wen as your enemy, then you are against Gao Clan as well,” Gao Hanshan replied lightly.
Pei Fengwu and Zong Changsheng, who were standing nearby, looked at Gao Hanshan in surprise. The clan elder of Gao Clan was treating Mo Wen with such importance. It was not easy for him to say that those who regarded Mo Wen as their enemy would be against the Gao Clan as well. Only the clan elder of Gao Clan had the right to say something like this. Even the elder of Gao Clan did not have the right to represent his clan. Gao Hanshan’s statement had made Mo Wen as important as the Gao Clan clan leader.
Previously, they had thought that Mo Wen had come alone and did not have much backing. But it seemed now that Mo Wen’s circumstances were not that straightforward, otherwise, the Gao Clan clan leader would not protect him in such a manner.
Mo Wen looked at Gao Hanshan in surprise. He was not surprised that Gao Hanshan had stepped out to protect him, but he was surprised at the importance that the Gao Clan had placed in him. That was beyond his expectations.
Zong Changsheng glanced at Gao Hanshan and pulled Pei Fengwu to the side. It was highly likely that the two sects might fight each other in the current situation. He did not wish to be embroiled in the fight. Even though Mo Wen had protected them, he was not willing to become enemies with Yinyuan Sect because of Mo Wen did not want to bring about a fight between the two sects.
Gong Xingyu hesitated. He felt rather awkward right now. He had not expected Gao Hanshan to be so insistent. If he sought revenge against Mo Wen, Gao Clan would become his enemy. If he did not seek out Mo Wen, then Yinyuan Sect would be embarrassed in front of everyone.
“Grandfather, please don’t interfere with this matter. This is a personal grudge between me and Mo Wen. I am not as skilled as he is, I admit that. But one day, I will get everything back.” Gong Zhangyan struggled to get up from the ground. He looked at Mo Wen furiously, wanting desperately to crush him to pieces.
Gong Xingyan’s furious expression softened slightly. He wanted to take this opportunity to remove himself from this awkward predicament. He did not dare to make the decision to fight another sect so easily. He would carefully consider how to deal with this matter in the future.
Suddenly, a voice rang in everyone’s mind.
“Welcome to the Fighting Spirit Tower. The test will begin soon.”
The Tower Spirit!
Mo Wen realized that it was the voice of the Tower Spirit immediately. The Tower Spirit was really in the tower.
The three tail feathers in Mo Wen’s body shook slightly when the voice rang. They seemed to be responding to something intangible.
A ray of white light descended from the sky. The light flickered and everyone disappeared from the altar. It was not just the human warriors: the beast kings of the Fire Domain and the mysterious man in black robes standing alone disappeared as well.
At the same time, outside the Fighting Spirit Tower, a group of men in black appeared silently.
“Have the people of the Ghost Lair entered the Fighting Spirit Tower?” a dark, sinister voice asked. The voice was so icy that a person felt especially cold hearing it. It felt like a gust of cold wind.
“Lord Chiwei, other than us from the Demonic Sky, all the powers who have come to the Fire Domain have entered the Fighting Spirit Tower,” a man in blood-red robes respectfully said. He was no other than Master Wei, the leader of the Demonic Sky warriors who had come to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Wei Chifeng had been the leader of the Demonic Sky previously, but the leader has since changed.
