The mountains were green and there were other forest mountains beyond them. A beam of light shone from the green mountains. The next moment, silhouettes appeared from thin air. They were Mo Wen and the others who had emerged from the Creation Pool.
Mo Wen had already broken through to the Primordial Soul realm and had successfully cultivated himself to the level of great attainment in the Primordial Soul realm without any issues. His foundations were already strong. Once he broke through to the Primordial Soul Realm, he naturally would not remain at its beginning stage. After all, before he reached the Creation Pool, he held back his advancement. After breaking through to the Primordial Soul realm, his previous foundations were finally put to use to aid his cultivation growth.
During the trip to the Path of Creation, Mo Wen’s ability had risen rapidly. He himself was not too sure what level he was at currently.
“We finally made it out.”
The Ink Scaled King looked at the surrounding green mountains. He closed his eyes and drew in a deep breath. He had a joyful look on his face. This was the outside world. It was a world that they had dreamt of coming to for so long, a world where they were not inhibited by any world law!
“So, what do you all plan to do next?” Mo Wen said with a plain smile as he looked at the Ink Scaled King and the Jade Xiu King. They had escaped from the preliminary ancient land. They had no friends or family in the outside world and were carefree.
From the Ancient Age till the present day, they were most likely the first living creatures to escape from the preliminary ancient land.
“What plans could we possibly have? The outside world is too alien to us. We do not know where we should go. Brother Mo Wen, we owe you a life-saving debt and a rebirth debt. In our entire lifetimes, it will be difficult to repay your kindness. If you do not mind, we are willing to serve you.”
The Jade Xiu King and the Ink Scaled King glanced at each other and then slowly said this. After they came out from the preliminary ancient land, they indeed did not know where to go. For now, they only knew Mo Wen. Also, they were willing to serve under Mo Wen. It was not just because they owed Mo Wen a debt of kindness. Another major reason was Mo Wen’s potential. The both of them knew that in the future, Mo Wen would definitely not be a simple man. Right now, he was a dragon hiding in the abyss, a baby tiger roaring in the valley. In the future, he would certainly be a dragon that soared in the sky and ruled over all.
Be it his character or potential, Mo Wen could not be faulted. It was definitely not erroneous for them to pledge their allegiance to such a person.
“Brothers, you are so serious. Since the two of you are willing to travel with me, I will certainly not mistreat you.”
Mo Wen patted the Ink Scaled King on the shoulder. They had lived for tens of thousands of years and could be considered old fellows among old fellows, but Mo Wen did not mind at all.
The Jade Xiu King and the Ink Scaled King were two of the most talented figures in the preliminary ancient land. Their future achievements would certainly be limitless. Mo Wen was naturally very willing to have them serve at his side as fierce generals. Also, the character of these people was not bad. They were worthy of being cultivated and trusted.
“What about you, Beauty Mo Yuqing?” Mo Wen looked at the dragon maiden with a smile.
“What do you think?” The dragon maiden said plainly. Did she have a choice?
Mo Wen patted the dragon maiden on the shoulder and earnestly said, “If you travel around with me, I guarantee that your food will taste good and your drink will be hot.”
The dragon maiden replied, “Hehe.”
Mo Wen rolled his eyes. What did she mean by that? He would not casually let people adventure with him.
However, he was really happy just thinking about having a pureblood Primeval Divine Dragon as his subordinate.
“All of you should cultivate in the Junior Master’s Pagoda for a while. I need to visit Huatian Palace later. It is not convenient for me to bring all of you along.”
Mo Wen waved his hand and the Junior Master’s Pagoda flew out from it, becoming an exquisite jade pagoda.
The Junior Master’s Pagoda was an absolute treasure. It was a rare container. It could contain living creatures for easy transport. Ordinary sacred treasures did not have the ability to do so. The Junior Master’s Pagoda was a treasure that was comparable to immortal treasures.
After the three of them entered the Junior Master’s Pagoda, Mo Wen became a beam of light and flew towards the nearby Huatian Palace Branch Palace Hall. This place was not far from the entrance for the Path of Creation. The place that they were teleported to after they had emerged from the Creation Pool was also nearby.
After flying for about ten thousand miles, Mo Wen finally saw the ancient palace hall that led to the Path of Creation. The upper echelons of the Huatian Palace had been built because of the path. He could use the Branch Palace Hall’s teleporting stratagem to head to the Huatian Palace Headquarters.
“Little friend, congratulations on your triumphant return from the Creation Pool.”
A laugh sounded beside Mo Wen’s ear. The next moment, a grey silhouette flew out from the ancient palace hall. It was the elder who had sent Mo Wen to the Path of Creation.
“Senior, how did you know that I entered the Creation Pool?” Mo Wen said with a smile. Could it be that after Xiao Jinghe and the rest had returned from the Path of Creation, they informed the elder regarding him?
“The Creation Qi on you is extremely thick and rich. Although you have tried to hide it, it is hard to cultivate such rich Creation Qi. From this, I can tell that you have entered the Creation Pool. Moreover, those little fellows have told me about your performance in the preliminary ancient land. You are truly impressive.”
The gaze that the elderly man in grey robes gave Mo Wen was somewhat incredulous. Ever since the Huatian Palace was established, there had never been a genius like Mo Wen before.
“Senior, you praise me too highly. I am fortunate to have successfully accomplished my mission,” Mo Wen said with a smile. Mo Wen naturally knew that the elderly man in grey robes certainly did not come to him just to praise him. The man was definitely intending to ask about the illusionary spirit immortal release technique.
“Oh, before this, I was still guessing whether you would succeed. I never imagined that after so many eons, someone would finally succeed,” the elderly man in grey robes said emotionally.
“Senior, I believe tens of thousands of years ago, the genius who passed both the Hundred Battle Test’s challenge rings was you, am I right?” Mo Wen pondered about it and felt that the elderly man in grey robes was very likely the absolute genius from back then. Although Mo Wen did not have any evidence, this elder’s aura was unfathomable. Even now, Mo Wen could not understand this elderly man in grey robes at a glance. From the looks of it, this person’s cultivation was rich and deep, at a rather astonishing level.
With Mo Wen’s current ability, most likely only cultivators at the Supreme Profundity realm and beyond could give him such a feeling. He would probably be able to see through Tide Changing realm cultivators at a glance. After all, he was someone who had mastered the Eyes of Enlightenment. Unless the person surpassed Mo Wen by two large realms, it would be very difficult for them to hide their cultivation in front of him. This elder was most likely powerful even in the Supreme Profundity realm.
“I was frivolous back then. Little friend, I must have embarrassed myself in front of you.” The elderly man in grey robes did not deny it.
As expected, he was the one who retrieved the other half of the illusionary spirit divine wings back then. He was that genius. Actually, Mo Wen wanted to call him a freak.
“For eons, I have waited here for someone to retrieve the other half of the illusionary spirit divine wings. My decision back then was certainly frivolous.” The elderly man in grey robes laughed bitterly as he shook his head. How many years did one’s life have? Even for Supreme Profundity realm cultivators, ten thousand years was near the limits of a lifespan.
Humans were not foreign clans of the preliminary ancient land. The world was very strict with humans’ lifespan limits. Even for Supreme Profundity realm cultivators, very few of them lived past twenty thousand years. Others like the Multicolor Queen could easily live up to more than ten thousand years. For humans, it was difficult — even for Divine Illusionary realm cultivators — to live that long.
“Here is the completed illusionary spirit divine wings. Please take a look.” With a wave of Mo Wen’s hand, two beams of blue light gradually emerged. They were a replica of the illusionary spirit divine wings.
Although they were just a replica, they were still rare heaven spiritual treasures. Also, they were a pair of treasures that approached the level of sacred treasures when combined.
While they were still far inferior compared to the Junior Master’s Pagoda, Supreme Profundity realm cultivators rarely had heaven spiritual treasures. Only Supreme Profundity realm cultivators of high statuses — such as the Huatian Palace’s Palace Lords — had absolute treasures like the heaven spiritual treasures. As for ordinary Supreme Profundity realm cultivators, it was rather difficult for them to get their hands on heaven spiritual treasures. Sacred treasures were even more unthinkable.
“As expected, the method of practice for the illusionary spirit immortal release technique was hidden inside.” The eyes of the elderly man in grey robes lit up. The illusionary spirit immortal release technique was a Heavenly Path secret technique. Its value could not be quantified. Although this was just part of the illusionary spirit immortal release technique rather than its complete extraordinary power, the elderly man in grey robes was rather satisfied. Not everyone was qualified to cultivate a Heavenly Path secret technique. Even a fragment of it was astounding and beyond comparison.
“Little friend Mo Wen, I am Wise Man Feng Yan. I thank you for bringing me such an invaluable treasure.” Wise Man Feng Yan looked at Mo Wen deeply. He had waited for more than ten thousand years. Finally, someone had helped him to achieve his wish.
“Senior, you are too kind. If I did not have your half of the illusionary spirit divine wings, it would have been impossible for me to obtain this remarkable power. I should be thanking you instead.”
Mo Wen said with a smile. Indeed, if it wasn’t for Wise Man Feng Yan, it would most likely have been difficult for Mo Wen to obtain the illusionary spirit divine wings. After all, no one would choose to obtain the remaining half of the wings if they had no means to obtain the first half.
After completing his work for the elderly man in grey robes, Mo Wen did not stay any longer. He headed straight towards the Huatian Palace Headquarters using the Branch Palace Hall’s teleporting stratagem.
“You have returned.”
On the mountain peak where the Senate was, Mo Qingge looked at Mo Wen and smiled slightly. Her smile was enchanting.
“Hmm. I have reaped many benefits from my trip to the Path of Creation.” Mo Wen smiled plainly.
“All is well as long as you return safely. Xiao Jinghe and the others came out a year ago. Who would have thought that you would remain in there for such a long time?” Mo Qingge said plainly. Since Mo Wen had not appeared after so long, she believed that he had gotten into an accident.
“I have made you worry. I encountered some accidents, so I was delayed.” Mo Wen could see that Mo Qingge was concerned.
“Hmm, the four geniuses of the Huatian Palace have told us about your adventures in the preliminary ancient land. I never thought that you could achieve this state in such a short amount of time. Now that you mention it, you saved Nie Junxue. The dignified Huatian Palace Second Palace Lord now owes you a debt of gratitude,” Mo Qingge said as she smiled.
Nie Junxue and Nie Wuxin were rather close. Their relationship was not just that of master and disciple; Nie Wuxin was the grandaunt of Nie Junxue.
“Helping out a companion is a given. How’s your physical health?” Mo Wen asked.
“It’s still fine,” Mo Qingge answered plainly. No one could control the Massacre’s Host.
“I obtained some Spiritual Transforming Stones from the Creation Pool. How many do you need?” Mo Wen asked.
“You actually managed to find Spiritual Transforming Stones?” Mo Qingge asked in surprise. She unsurprisingly knew that Spiritual Transforming Stones were Spiritual Transforming Pearls. Prior to Mo Wen entering the Path of Creation, she had merely mentioned it in passing; but she had not expected that Mo Wen could obtain them. After all, it was not easy to be able to enter the Creation Pool. Even she could not guarantee that she could obtain Spiritual Transforming Pearls from the Creation Pool if she went.
The Huatian Palace had been established for many eons and there had been so many people who had entered the Creation Pool. However, no one had obtained Spiritual Transforming Pearls!
“Hmm, I was lucky to come across a few. Take a look and see whether these are enough.”
Mo Wen smiled slightly. Then, with a wave of his hand, a large mass of jade stones shining with divine light suddenly piled up several meters high on the ground.
Mo Qingge was stunned for an instant. She stared wide-eyed at the pile of Spiritual Transforming Stones. The entire mountain peak fell silent.
