Chapter 751: The Messy Battle



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



Mo Wuji discovered, in aghast, that the war had escalated; countless of people were engaged in slaughter and battle. Indeed, the human race were fighting against the demon race. As for the other races, some fought on the side of the human race, while others battled on the side of the demons. The entire battlefield was a mess; it resembled a scene from Hell.



Indeed, there would be a war every time the Cosmos Wall opens. Just as Mo Wuji thought of this, a powerful force landed on his back, dragging him back into the battlefield.



Before Mo Wuji could even examine what was the force that was on his back, several beams of light shot towards him. Mo Wuji could only wield his Half Moon Weighted Halberd and block against these light. However, he didn't have any intentions of counterattacking.



If it was just a few people, then he could just kill them. However, there were countless of experts here, they numbered the tens of thousands; it was impossible for him to kill them all. Moreover, he had killed cultivators from both the human race and the demon race; so he didn't belong to either side. To be honest, even he didn't know how the two races were able to distinguish each other.



Mo Wuji tried his best to stay at the edge of the battlefield. In a short period of time, he finally saw through it. The immortals on the side of the human race had a faint yellow aura circulating around them. Mo Wuji paid special attention to one particular human race cultivator; every time this cultivator kills a demon race cultivator, a mark would form on the jade bracelet on his wrist. Depending on how strong the demon race cultivator he killed was, the energy behind that mark would vary.



On the other hand, the demon race cultivators had a faint green colour around them, and they also had a similar jade bracelet on their wrists.



Clearly, there would be rewards depending on the degree of the marks on the bracelets. Mo Wuji didn't have any bracelet; so he was even less willing to take part in this war



Mo Wuji retreated to the edge in self preservation. At the same time, he started to looking out for immortals that didn't have jade bracelets.



After some time, he finally found a cultivator without a bracelet like him. This cultivator was also retreating to a corner. Unfortunately, he was actually surrounded by cultivators from both the human and demon race. Within instants, he was killed.



Mo Wuji discovered that killing the human race cultivator that killed this person actually had two new marks on his bracelet. Moreover, the energy within these two marks was very strong.



An additional mark was actually rewarded. From the looks of it, this war didn't allow those that didn't belong to either side to exist.



Mo Wuji started to feel the aura around himself; it was actually yellow with a tinge of green. This meant that he had killed both human and demon cultivators. Anyone that killed him would receive twice the rewards.



Indeed, just as Mo Wuji became cognizant of this fact, a few waves of killing intent surged towards him. At this moment, he would be a fool if he continued to fight. He did not hesitate to flee.



When the cultivators that attacked Mo Wuji saw him disappear, they didn't chase after him.



It was just that when Mo Wuji came to a stop, more attacks came over. Mo Wuji cursed in his heart, he knew it would be hard for him to rest during this war. Fortunately, he had his Wind Escape Technique and his Spatial Teleportation. Otherwise, he could only die once he was surrounded.



At this moment, Mo Wuji finally understood why this place didn't allow flight; it was to prevent people from escaping. At the same time, he became clear about what had prevented him from leaving; it should have been a trap array. This trap array was rather peculiar, it seemed to appear because of the Cosmos Wall.



If he guessed correctly, this trap array would only disappear when this war ends. Before this war ends, all those that took part in the pillage of the Cosmos Wall must take part in the war.



No wonder one must join a side in the Heaven's Beyond Corridor. If not, it would be extremely hard to survive in such a war. Even though he had his spirit storage channel and his elemental storage channel, as well as a whole pile of healing drugs, this constant state of fleeing was exhausting him greatly.



Unfortunately, he hadn't know of these rules. If an average person knew of these rules, they would probably hide within Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square and not take part in the pillage, right? But to Mo Wuji, he would still come even if he knew the rules. The benefits from the Cosmos Wall were truly overwhelming.



The messy war got messier. There was no order or war tactics; everyone simply engaged in mutual slaughter.



If he was an observer that didn’t understand the reason behind this war, Mo Wuji would definitely have looked toward them with disdain. This war was simply a low-level one; everyone was basically fighting individually and their killing intents were directed everywhere.



However, the current Mo Wuji definitely wouldn’t look at this war with disdain. Because, he knew that this war could only be like that. Everyone was only in this messy battle because of the pillage of the Cosmos Wall. This war wasn’t really a battle between two sides; it was just a random collection of people fighting for themselves. It was completely impossible for there to be war tactics.



Moreover, the purpose of this war wasn’t victory, but survival and cultivation resources. The selfishness of cultivators was on full display in this war.



The war lasted for an entire day. Mo Wuji was thoroughly drenched in sweat. Even though he didn’t kill a single person, his difficulty was at least a hundredfold more than others. During this entire war, he didn’t get to stop and rest; he could only flee constantly.



If he rested for even a moment, he would be drawn into battle. If not for his God Physique, the magic treasure light that constantly brushed against him would have already left his entire body filled with scars.



Seeing the people retreat in two directions, Mo Wuji knew that both sides were equally matched. He also hurriedly retreated in the direction of the city square.



It was just as Mo Wuji had expected. The moment the war ended, the trap array that confined him had disappeared without a trace. He was able to easily leave the area.



Mo Wuji heaved a sigh of relief as he increased his speed. If not for his spirit storage channel, his elemental storage channel and his God Physique, he would have either died or suffered devastating injuries.



At this moment, a human race man in earthen robes stared at the direction that Mo Wuji disappeared in and frowned. Mo Wuji’s aura was both yellow and green; ostensibly, Mo Wuji had killed cultivators from both sides. This wasn’t what surprised him. What surprised him was that a person like Mo Wuji, who didn’t have a bracelet, was actually able to survive to the end of the war.



Supposedly, those without bracelets and didn’t belong to a side were the fastest to die. Unfortunately, by the time this fella noticed Mo Wuji, the war had already ended. Thus, he didn’t know that Mo Wuji had an amazing Wind Escape Technique. If he did, he might have actually chased after Mo Wuji.



…



By the time Mo Wuji reached Heaven’s Beyond Corridor City Square, he found that there were only a few people there. Mo Wuji immediately headed towards that magic treasure shop. He had already killed the shop owner. Even if he didn’t have the title deed, it should still belong to him if he was the first to occupy it.



The first thing that Mo Wuji did was to completely remove all the arrays protecting this shop, and replace them with a new one. Just when he was about to complete his array, he heard sounds of chatter gradually getting louder. Mo Wuji knew that the main batch of people that went to the Cosmos Wall had returned.



Before Mo Wuji could use the defensive array to seal the shop, the shop’s doors were struck open.



"Who are you?" The person at the door was a relatively thin man. He stared and frowned towards Mo Wuji.



"This shop has already changed owners. I am the new owner of this shop," Mo Wuji said indifferently. This thin man was only in the early Immortal King Stage, this was even weaker than the previous shop owner. Mo Wuji really didn’t place such a person in his eyes.



The thin man stared at Mo Wuji for quite some time, then he suddenly chuckled, "You want to make use of Mao Hu’s death to occupy this shop?"



Mo Wuji thought in his heart: This was really my intention.



"Let me give you some advice. Leave now, otherwise, you won’t be able to escape with your life." Seemingly seeing his words were exactly the case, this thin man did not even wait for Mo Wuji to say anything before he said that coldly.



Even though Mo Wuji didn’t really understand the rules here, he wasn’t going to simply give the place that he would be living in away. After battling in the desert wasteland battlefield, Mo Wuji had a faint feeling that the battlefield was a strange place. It might actually be dangerous for him to enter the battlefield alone.



"I will give you three breaths of time to leave my shop. Otherwise, don’t blame me for laying hands on you." Mo Wuji’s tone also became cold. This was clearly a place where the strong preyed on the weak. Without power, this fella could kneel on the floor and it would still be useless.



This thin man swept his gaze across Mo Wuji disdainfully, then he suddenly placed his hand on a talisman that was at the entrance of the shop.



Mo Wuji immediately felt slight ripples in space. He immediately understood what happened, that should have been a talisman that was used to alarm the enforcers. He actually didn’t notice it previously.



Indeed, two figures soon sped over. One of them was an early stage Immortal Reverent, while the other was a late stage Immortal King.















Chapter 752: Furious Cultivation



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



This place was abundant in cultivation resources; thus Immortal Reverents weren't a rare sight. Mo Wuji believed that if he could enter seclusion for a period of time, he would also be able to reach the Immortal Reverent Stage.



These two figures were extremely fast. Mo Wuji's spiritual will had only just detected these two and they had already landed in front of Mo Wuji's shop. That Immortal Reverent coldly swept his eyes across Mo Wuji, then he snorted coldly, "Who dares to disobey the rules?"



This thin man bowed, "Lord Enforcers, this is my shop. I sold it to Mao Hu, and we have previously agreed that this shop would automatically be returned to me if Mao Hu dies…"



Mo Wuji's heart sunk; there was actually such an agreement.



"I've gotten wind of the tragic news of Mao Hu’s death; so I came back to take back the shop which belongs to me. I never expected that someone would come an occupy it first." As this thin man finished speaking, he had already retrieved a signed jade letter.



Mo Wuji's spiritual will landed on that jade letter; it was indeed an agreement with Mao Hu. As he felt the spiritual will energy on that agreement, Mo Wuji knew that this jade letter was not fake.



The Immortal Reverent Enforcer received the jade letter and scanned it. Thereafter, he stared at Mo Wuji and said coldly, "You should have heard of the rule that the first person who occupies a shop once the shop owner dies would own the shop, right? Well, let me tell you. Even if this rule exists, you are not qualified. Because only people that have spent a minimum of five years in Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square can make use of this rule. If I'm not wrong, you haven't even been here for more than a month."



Mo Wuji jolted and he inwardly cursed Lou Si. She actually neglected to inform him of such a critical condition, was she trying to screw him over?



"Cripple your dantian, hand over all your belongings and follow us." This Immortal Reverent's tone was filled with contempt. This kid didn't even know about the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor City Square's rules and he decided to learn from others and snatch for shops.



Mo Wuji said indifferently, "Are you saying that I can't purchase this shop? And that I don't have the rights to purchase a shop?"



In reality, this was a question that worried Mo Wuji. If there was indeed a rule that restricted the purchase of shops to people who only stayed here for a certain number of years, then he would have to escape from here.



"Anyone can purchase shops. As long as you are able to show the title deed that you got from Mao Hu, then this shop would belong to you." This time, the one that was speaking was that late stage Immortal King.



In reality, except for Mo Wuji, everyone else was sure that Mo Wuji would definitely be unable to take out the title deed. Unless there were unique circumstances, who would be willing to sell a shop in Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square? Mao Hu definitely wouldn't sell the shop before heading to the Cosmos Wall, because the moment the Cosmos Wall opens, every single shop would have a surge in activity.



Mo Wuji heaved a sigh of relief. Even though he didn't understand the reasons behind Mao Hu’s previous actions, the title deed of this shop definitely belonged to him.



Mo Wuji retrieved the title deed and placed it on the counter, "This is the title deed of my shop."



Besides Mo Wuji, the other three all sent their spiritual will into the title deed. It had already been three days; so the spiritual will imprint on the title deed had been completely changed to Mo Wuji's.



When he saw that Mo Wuji had truly purchased this shop, that Immortal Reverent’s face turned black. With a quick swipe, he slapped the thin man flying out of the shop and snorted, "Bring him away."



That thin man was also in aghast, he never expected that Mao Hu would actually dare to sell this shop. However, the spiritual imprint on the title deed could not be faked. Mao Hu had definitely sold the shop.



"It was our mistake just now. Since you are the new owner, then you would have to pay for the shop's land occupation fees." That Immortal Reverent actually clasped his fists towards Mo Wuji apologetically.



"How much for one year?" Mo Wuji promptly asked.



This Immortal Reverent startled; usually people paid by the month. Ostensibly, this new shop owner was indeed a newbie. This Immortal Reverent even started to wonder how Mo Wuji was able to sign the title deed. Even though he knew that there was something peculiar in the exchange of the title deed, he didn't ask about it. Such a matter was truly too trivial.



"2,000 regulated green crystals for a year." The Immortal Reverent Enforcer answered Mo Wuji's question.



"Then what about consecutive years?" Mo Wuji continued asking.



"Two years for 3,800 regulated green crystals, three years for 5,300 regulated green crystals…"



"I will pay for three years." Mo Wuji did not hesitate to bring out a huge pile of green crystals.



He knew what regulated green crystals were. Because the green crystals one could obtain within the Cosmos Wall were of different sizes, the city square had a regulated size for easy transaction. When he took out this pile of green crystals, he had already excluded the extremely small ones and broke down the relatively big ones.



This Immortal Reverent Enforcer jolted slightly. Don't simply see how there were many beautiful and vivid shops in Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square. He was very clear that there were very few people who could actually take out five to six thousand green crystals at a single go.



And even those minute number of shop owners that could do that, wouldn't do such a thing. They would use those green crystals to cultivate. After all, raising one's cultivation was the most important thing. This new shop owner clearer hadn't been in Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square for long, but he was actually able to take out so many green crystals at a single go; this newbie must definitely have some amazing background.



Mo Wuji had obtained the shop legally. As for the green crystals, no one would really investigate on it.



This Immortal Reverent kept Mo Wuji's green crystals. Thereafter, he retrieved a jade letter and inscribed the message that he had collected three years’ worth of green crystals. He threw it over to Mo Wuji and said, "This is the proof of collection. There are still some secondary fees, but you can pay them after these three years. As for what happened previously, we have truly disturbed you."



With that, this Immortal Reverent and the Immortal King brought the thin man and sped out of Mo Wuji's shop.



Mo Wuji heaved a sigh of relief. The reason why he handed three years worth of fees at a single go was because he wanted to enter seclusion. He also didn't expect that things would be so simple. If he knew that the title deed was so powerful, he wouldn't have wasted his words and simply flashed it out.



However, Mo Wuji soon calmed down. He had finally found himself a place to rest his feet. The first thing he was going to do wasn't to actually sell anything. Instead, he was going to close his shop and start his secluded cultivation.



Knowing that no one would be able to snatch his shop away, Mo Wuji started to install a stronger killing array and a more powerful defensive array. At the same time, he also sealed the reporting talisman at the entrance of his shop. He didn't need to report anything to the enforcers; he only needed to cultivate.



During this period of time, the entire Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square was bustling with activity. The Cosmos Wall had just closed and many immortals brought their spoils to trade in the city square.



In the entire Heaven's Beyond Corridor City Square, there was only one shop that was not open for business. That was Mo Wuji's magic treasure shop.



…



Multiple days later, Mo Wuji had finished installing his various defensive seals. This was when he returned to his room and started to organise his spoils.



During this period, Mo Wuji's greatest gains were the six pages of the Book of Luo. He needed to refine these six pages as soon as possible. Mo Wuji knew that the higher his cultivation, the faster he would take to refine the Book of Luo. Thus, he would only start refining the Book of Luo after he had finished his cultivation.



Except for the six pages of the Book of Luo, there was also the Kun Wu Sword. Mo Wuji also intended to refine the Kun Wu Sword after this cultivation session.



In this place where experts were born easily, his cultivation was simply garbage.



Mo Wuji also took out his gains from the Cosmos Wall. Because he went the highest in the Cosmos Wall, Mo Wuji obtained the best of the resources. Thus, he had no fewer than a hundred thousand green crystal fragments. He also had plenty of Tier 7 to Tier 9 immortal herbs. Except for those that were close to extinct, or those that were extremely valuable, such as the Undying Holy Bamboo and the Emperor Dao Fruit, he basically had all the other varieties of immortal herbs. There were even some immortal herbs that Mo Wuji didn't recognise.



As for smithing materials and ores, there was an even more eclectic range of them. Similar to his immortal herbs, he only lacked the rarest materials. Lastly, he had come to magic treasures. The magic treasure that elated him the most was a flying ship.



He felt that this flying ship's grade exceeded Grade 9. It was just that the smith's skill did not seem up to mark; so it seemed to barely reach Grade 9. However, Mo Wuji guessed that if he handed this flying ship's materials to Xu Suren, he might actually be able to forge a flying ship that transcended the immortal grade.



After organising all these items, Mo Wuji took out his pill furnace and started concocting pills. Before he started cultivation, he needed to adequately prepare himself.



Another month passed. Mo Wuji installed a spirit concealment array, then he retrieved a pile of green crystals and multiple vases of pills. He prepared to go all out and cultivate. If he didn't raise his cultivation, then he couldn't do anything else.



If he was an Immortal Emperor, why would he stay cooped up here in Heaven's Beyond City Square? He would directly go take a look at the human race district.



Mo Wuji had gotten his hands on some green crystals before. These were the fuel for Da Huang. This entire time, he really wanted to use the green crystals to cultivate, but he couldn't bear to do it. Now that he had 100,000 green crystals, he could finally cultivate as he wished.



With his reverse circulation of his Immortal Mortal Technique, coupled with the brimming energy within the green crystals, his 108 minor circulations merged to form a major circulation in almost an instant. When this happened, the rich energy within the green crystals were furiously sucked out by Mo Wuji.



Mo Wuji immediately felt the difference. It was as he had predicted; not only was the immortal spiritual energy within the crystal of a higher purity, it even contained a more distinct heavenly dao energy.



In less than 10 days, Mo Wuji felt his cultivation breaking through to the intermediate Immortal King Stage. Not only that, he felt that his understandings towards his sacred arts had reached a new level.



"Crack!" Following his breakthrough, multiple green crystals reduced into dust.



Even though Mo Wuji was a Tier 8 Pill Emperor, and Ping Fan was extremely rich in immortal spiritual energy, he still wouldn't have been able to advance to the intermediate Immortal King Stage in a matter of days. He would need years or even decades. But the first time he used green crystals to cultivate, he only needed a few days to break past the early Immortal King Stage and enter the intermediate stage. Moreover, he didn't even use a single pill.



Feeling the heaven-defying effects of the green crystals, Mo Wuji took out another pile of green crystals with greater fervour. The green crystals were furiously sucked dry. As time passed, Mo Wuji's cultivation also rose rapidly.

Chapter 753: Help Again



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



Lou Si dashed back into the the Heaven’s Beyond City Square with a slightly messy hair and the instance she entered, she heaved a huge sigh of relief as this meant that she could stay for another three days again.



Presently, Lou Si had a black veil covering her face and her immortal spirituality was unstable. Evidently, she had yet to recover from her injuries.



However, in the very next second, she revealed an expression of despair as a tall girl with a pale face walked towards her. The tall girl might be recognised as a girl because of her voluptuous chest but she could also be considered a man because of the obvious Adam’s apple in her throat.



"Lou Si, do you want me to attack you here or do you want to leave with me?" The person walked over to Lou Si while speaking in a ridicule tone. His voice sounded horrifyingly peculiar.



Lou Si could even feel her legs shivering and goosebumps forming all over her body. At this moment, she felt as though she was standing in front of an extremely disgusting wiggly caterpillar.



Lou Si was well aware of this person’s origins and that he was the bisexual Immortal Reverent Ji Qi of the Heaven’s Beyond Demon Corridor. To be specific, he was a hermaphrodite[1] who had tortured countless of of male and female cultivators.



Ever since this person saw Lou Si’s features half a month ago, Lou Si had been constantly on the run. In the midst of her escape, she even killed an intermediate Immortal King which left her with nowhere to run anymore.



Because Lou Si was incredibly helpless, she could only escape into the Heaven’s Beyond City Square. However, one could only stay a maximum of three days in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square and naturally, there weren’t any resthouse here for her to stay in. Once the three days were up, one would have to leave and could only return after 24 hours. Naturally, exceptions could be made but it would have to be explained to and approved by the Heaven’s Beyond City Square’s management.



Evidently, Lou Si wasn’t an exception so she could only stay for three days, hide outside for one day before coming back to stay for another three days. Lou Si did this despite knowing that this wasn’t a permanent solution to her problem because she was at a complete loss. In the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor, she could join the demon race nor the human race so she could only hide here in the city square.



She thought of Mo Wuji and she didn’t expect herself to end up in the same predicament Mo Wuji was in two years ago. She wondered how that fella named Mo Wuji was coping now.



"Kill me then," Lou Si stared coldly at Ji Qi, who was standing in front of her. She would rather die here than to follow this bisexual person, suffer the cruel tortures and then die in a disgusting manner.



Ji Qi smiled, "I like you so much, how can I attack you just like that? I shall follow you and when you are willing to leave, let’s leave together."



Lou Si’s heart sank because how could she not know what Ji Qi was planning.



One could indeed attack in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square but a reason was needed after the attack. Ji Qi had no reason to attack Lou Si so if he were to attack without a reason in here, he would be listed as ‘not welcome’ by the Heaven’s Beyond City Square. Naturally, Ji Qi wouldn’t want this to be the case because the Heaven’s Beyond City Square was of great importance to him.



Ji Qi wanted to follow Lou Si because he knew that Lou Si had to leave the city square after three days. The moment she leaves, she would be unable to escape from his clutches.



Lou Si didn’t continue looking at Ji Qi because even though his looks were still acceptable, Lou Si still felt extremely disgusted at the sight of a person like him.



Currently, she was simply walking dazedly along the Heaven’s Beyond City Square while thinking of the possibility that she would kill herself even before the three days were up.



Ji Qi might be strong but he shouldn’t be strong enough to stop her from killing herself right?



Half a day seemed to fly past and Lou Si finally stopped as she looked at the crowded city square. She started to wonder what was the difference between killing herself now and two days later. Every second was torturous with this sickening caterpillar watching her.



Ji Qi’s horrifyingly sharp voice sounded off calmly, "You can kill yourself and I might not be able to stop it but I can definitely stop you from destroying your body. As long as your body isn’t destroyed, I can still bring you back. Hehe, I can refine a puppet with flesh for me to enjoy everyday."



Lou Si shivered as cold chills went down Lou Si’s spine.



Moments later, while the cold chill was still lingering within her body, she looked around and eventually sat down the entrance of a magic treasure shophouse.



Out of the many shophouses here, this was the only shop which was not opened for business. After walking for so many days, she was so exhausted both physically and mentally that she almost didn’t want to stand up anymore.



"Creak!" The door of the magic treasure shophouse actually opened up at this moment.



Lou Si subconsciously lifted her head and she was shocked at the sight of the person opening the door of the shophouse.



She knew the blue robe youth standing behind her. He was Mo Wuji, the man who killed immortals from both the human race and the demon race and the same man who had nowhere to go two years ago.



"Lou Si, why are you sitting outside my shophouse? You knew I was here?" Mo Wuji looked shockingly at Lou Si who was lifting her head in disbelief.



As compared to the first time he saw Lou Si, Lou Si appeared much more sluggish now.



"Mo Wuji, is this really your shop?" Lou Si finally reacted as she jumped and asked doubtfully.



How was it possible that Mo Wuji could manage to obtain a shophouse here?



Mo Wuji was able to survive till today only because he had been through countless of incidents that no one else could ever go through. One look at the state at which Lou Si was in and sensing the presence of an odd looking man from further away, Mo Wuji knew that Lou Si was being watched closely.



No matter what, Lou Si was considered his friend and was even the one who brought him into the Heaven’s Beyond City Square and explained all the rules here to him. Despite the fact that some rules were not fully explained, which resulted in him being in a disadvantage, Mo Wuji was still highly appreciative of Lou Si.



Since they were fated to meet again, he would naturally help a friend in need.



"Yes, this is indeed my shophouse. Why don’t you come in and talk?" Mo Wuji said chuckily. He had recently advanced to the Great Circle of the Immortal King Stage, finally stabilised his cultivation and was prepared to look for a place to undergo his tribulation. He certainly didn’t expect to see Lou Si the moment he opened his door.



"Alright, alright…" Lou Si was in an urgent hurry to enter Mo Wuji’s shop because she was about to go crazy under the watchful stare of the bisexual man.



"Hold on…" Ji Qi took a step forward to interrupt Mo Wuji and Lou Si.



He didn’t expect that Lou Si would actually know a shop owner here in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square. If he knew about this earlier, he would have brought Lou Si away forcefully from the start. The blacklist of the Heaven’s Beyond City Square would only be last for three years and he could even find ways to remove his name from the blacklist.



Mo Wuji stared intently at Ji Qi and said, "What do you want?"



"I want to enter to purchase some magic treasures," Ji Qi reacted to the situation after he saw Mo Wuji’s signboard.



The instance Mo Wuji bought this shophouse, he went into seclusion which was why other than altering the protecting array of the shop, Mo Wuji didn’t even change the name of the shop.



"My shop has yet to start our business so I shall not see you out," Mo Wuji instantly tried to close his door after saying that. He wanted to find out more about Lou Si’s situation before going out for his tribulation.



"Alright then, hand me the girl because she is a slave whom I just purchased. Because of my carelessness, I’ve let her escaped into the Heaven’s Beyond City Square. If you insist on interfering with my problems, I suggest you reconsider how long your shop could last in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square," Ji Qi said in a serious tone.



"Scram!" Mo Wuji shouted back angrily as he threw out an array flag to ignite his shop’s protecting array concurrently.



If Mo Wuju was in anywhere else, he would have attack already. Despite Ji Qi being in the intermediate Immortal Reverent Stage, Mo Wuji was 100% confident in his ability to get rid of Ji Qi. However, he didn’t wish to leave an unfavourable image of himself in the city square as he still wanted to undergo closed doors cultivation here.



He felt that if he wanted to leave the Heaven’s Beyond City Square to the Heaven’s Beyond Human Race Corridor, he would need to be strong enough. To be more specific, he felt the need to be at least an advanced Immortal Reverent before leaving.



"You…" Ji Qi was raging at how Mo Wuji ignite the shop’s protecting array before closing the door. Even so, he didn’t dare to attack Mo Wuji’s protecting array because the instance he do something like that, he would only invite endless troubles for himself.



…



"Big Brother Mo, you really found a shop here?" Lou Si couldn’t help but ask to confirm her doubts.



Without that bisexual man staring at her, Lou Si felt so much more relaxed and even her mind started to clear up.



Mo Wuji laughed and said, "Back then, my luck was rather good as I coincidentally met someone who wanted to sell the shop. Tell me what had happened? How did you end up so wan, sallow, depressed and injured?"



As he spoke, Mo Wuji handed Lou Si a Green Bodhi Pill once more.



Lou Si hurried to reject the Green Bodhi Pill, "My injuries are not serious enough for me to use pills. It will recover after a while so you should not continue wasting such valuable pills on me."



To her, Mo Wuji appeared as an extremely wealthy man. Moreover, she noticed that Mo Wuji didn’t really want to explain much about how he got the shop which was why he chose to change the topic of conversation.



Mo Wuji placed the pill back onto Lou Si’s hand before saying, "I am able be here only because of your directions. These pills mean nothing to me."



Sensing that Mo Wuji wasn’t lying to her, Lou Si accepted the pill appreciatively before sending it into her mouth. If she was alone, she would definitely save this pill up for future use but she was simply too embarrassed to keep the pill in front of Mo Wuji.



After the pill dissolved, Lou Si could feel her wounds disappearing one after the other and this was when she started speaking again, "The man outside is Ji Qi, who is a bisexual f*cker. Through the years, countless of man and woman had been ruined by him and it was rumoured that once you have been taken by him, you would disappear from the surface of the world. This was why he was given another nickname called the ‘Disgusting Caterpillar’. Because of my carelessness, he saw my appearance which was why I am in trouble now. If you hadn’t open your shop and found me there, I really didn’t know what to do. I didn’t even have the courage to kill myself in front of a disgusting person like him."



Mo Wuji said calmly. "You can stay with me for now and leave after I send him away."



Sending him away was a lie because Mo Wuji was intending to finish that bisexual man off. That bisexual man was simply way too unpleasant for Mo Wuji’s eyes too.

Chapter 754: Cosmos Communal Domain



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



Lou Si shook her head, "I have nowhere else to go. I’m being watched by that demon and I’ve killed an Immortal King of the demon race…"



Lou Si didn’t continue explaining her situation as she looked longingly at Mo Wuji. Her current predicament was similar to Mo Wuji when he first came here and if Mo Wuji chose not to save her, she could only await her death.



Mo Wuji understood Lou Si’s situation as he took out a jade letter before saying, "This is my land deed for the shop. All you have to do is to leave your stamp on it and be my shop assistant for the time being."



For a shop like Mo Wuji’s in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square, he was allowed to hire two assistants and once hired, the assistant would also be qualified to stay in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square.



"Many thanks Big Brother Mo," Lou Si exclaimed excitedly. After all, Mo Wuji had already helped her tremendously by offering two extremely rare Green Bodhi Pills. Now that Mo Wuji came to her rescue yet again, even she felt slightly embarrassed.



Regardless of how embarrassed Lou Si felt, she had no choice but to accept Mo Wuji’s help as she quickly left her stamp on the land deed. In a situation like this, she really had nowhere else to go.



Mo Wuji shook his hand, "Don’t worry about it. You should stay in the shop to cultivate while I head out for a while."



"Ah…" Lou Si let out a surprised ‘ah’ before hurrying to say, "You must not go out now. That bisexual Immortal Reverent is still out there and you must know that he is already in the intermediate Immortal Reverent Stage."



Lou Si was not unsure of Mo Wuji’s cultivation level but she was certain that Mo Wuji was at most an intermediate Immortal King only. Even if Mo Wuji was in the advanced Immortal King stage, the difference between himself and an intermediate Immortal Reverent, Ji Qi, would be too great.



Mo Wuji chuckled, "You don’t have to worry about me. In fact, I am worried he might not look for me."



Having cultivated to the pinnacle of the Immortal King Stage, Mo Wuji really wanted to challenge an expert to test his strength before advancing to the Immortal Reverent Stage.



"I shall go with you then," Lou Si said casually when she noticed Mo Wuji’s resolve to find Ji Qi.



Hearing this, Mo Wuji could only explain himself fully, "I have already felt the calling of the Immortal Reverent Stage and I was preparing to find a place to undergo my tribulation."



Lou Si was shocked at Mo Wuji’s intention to undergo the tribulation to become an Immortal Reverent. With the great items in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor, it was true that a lot of people could advance quickly but they would only be advancing fast within the same realm. For example, one could advance from the elementary Immortal Reverent Stage to the Great Circle of the Immortal Reverent Stage in a very short period of time.



However, advancing from the Immortal King Stage to the Immortal Reverent Stage or the Immortal Reverent Stage to the Immortal Emperor Stage was like an uncrossable gorge especially in a place like this. The reasons were simply because of the lack of Draining Immortal King Pills and the Extreme Reverent Pills. The Draining Immortal King Pill was used for a Grand Luo Immortal to advance to become an Immortal King while the Immortal King needed an Extreme Reverent Pill to become an Immortal Reverent.



Within the Cosmo Wall, there were indeed the main fruit, Draining Immortal King Dao Fruit, and herb, Ancient Stem Flower, to concoct the Draining Immortal King Pill and Extreme Reverent Pill respectively. However, these would not allow one to advance because they were needed to be turned into pills for it to work effectively.



In the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor, there was a massive shortage of immortal pills, let alone pills of the same calibre as the Draining Immortal King Pill and Extreme Reverent Pill.



Fortunately, Lou Si reacted fast as she explained, "Big Brother Mo, if you are going to advance to become an Immortal Reverent, it would be important that I follow you. It would be troublesome if no one watch your back while you undergo your tribulation so I shall guard you."



Mo Wuji was slightly helpless because he knew that Lou Si was talking about normal tribulation for normal cultivators. Under normal circumstances, it was indeed necessary for someone to guard the person undergoing his tribulation. However, why would Mo Wuji fear the lightning tribulation? Not only could he absorb the essence of the lightning, he even had a God Physique Level 6 body so how could the lightning tribulation possibly harm him?



"Aren’t you afraid of that bisexual man outside?" Mo Wuji asked curiously.



Subconsciously, Lou Si shivered before saying, "It doesn’t matter whether I am afraid or not, if Big Brother Mo is going out for his tribulation, I have to follow."



This time round, Mo Wuji finally understood Lou Si’s train of thoughts. Once Mo Wuji fell under the hands of that bisexual Immortal Reverent, the shophouse would be taken away and Lou Si would end up just like before.



"You can occupy my shop if anything happens to me and in that way, you would be the shop owner," Mo Wuji replied with a laugh. His guess was that Lou Si didn’t completely understand the rules to occupy a shop here which was why she would give him the wrong information.



Lou Si said in a low voice, "Big Brother Mo, I am sorry. Previously, I told you the rules even though I wasn’t entirely sure of it myself."



"I am just fooling around with you," Mo Wuji said as he had already walked out of the shophouse.



Lou Si hurried behind Mo Wuji because her small life was entirely dependent on Mo Wuji now. If Mo Wuji survived, she would have a chance to survive but if Mo Wuji fell, she would most likely fall too.



"Big Brother Mo, I know of a shop which sells the Ancient Stem Flower. Even though we’re unable to turn the Ancient Stem Flower into the Extreme Reverent Pill, it would still increase the chances of advancing to become an Immortal Reverent by a few percentage points," Lou Si, who was following closely behind Mo Wuji, whispered.



Mo Wuji shook his hand and said, "You don’t have to worry about this. Oh yes, during the two years I’ve been in seclusion, did anything new happened in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor?"



"I’ve heard that the human race recruited an exceptional genius and that he is a lightning cultivator. I’ve heard that he was only in the intermediate Immortal King Stage and managed to kill an elementary Immortal Reverent. This wasn’t the most impressive because rumours were spread that he had already advanced into the elementary Immortal Reverent Stage in merely two years…"



"What is his name?" Mo Wuji hurried to interject Lou Si’s words.



"His name is Lei Hongji," Traces of admiration and envy flashed across Lou Si’s eyes because it was simply too heaven-defying for an intermediate Immortal King to defeat an elementary Immortal Reverent. Even so, the most terrifying thing about him was his progress in two years.



Mo Wuji stopped in his tracks as he muttered to himself, "Could this be the battlefield which the Very High Heavens send their disciples to? Doesn’t seem like it…"



In actual fact, Mo Wuji found Lei Hongji’s rate of cultivation normal because excluding himself, Mo Wuji believed that Lei Hongji progressed the fastest among all the cultivators he had met.



"You mentioned about the Very High Heavens?" Lou Si looked curiously at Mo Wuji.



Mo Wuji nodded, "You’ve heard about the Very High Heavens?"



Lou Si answered, "Yes of course, the Very High Heavens is merely one of the many Immortal World planeroid fighting in the Cosmos… Oh yes, I’ve heard that the Lei Hongji was from the Very High Heavens. Besides Lei Hongji, there was also a person called Lai Wen. He actually has a page of the Book of Luo and during one of the war, his Book of Luo was revealed so he had no choice but to put it out for auction. If I am not wrong, the auction should take place about a month from now…"



"What?" Initially, Mo Wuji was already slightly excited when he heard that he could communicate with the Very High Heavens from here. Now that Lou Si mentioned about the Book of Luo, he could no longer contain his excitement because the final page of the Book of Luo had finally appeared.



Mo Wuji was aware that the Book of Luo had a total of 13 pages and he had 6 with him and 1 with Cen Shuyin. Murong Xiangyu had 5 while Mo Wuji knew that the last page was from the fourth level of the Broken World. When he first entered the fourth level of the Broken World, he had already heard that a page of the Book of Luo as well as a Fire Elemental Bead appeared. However, Mo Wuji was still unaware of who was the one who managed to obtain that last page of the Book of Luo.



Now he know that the fella who took the last page of the Book of Luo was called Lai Wen from the Very High Heavens. He came to the Cosmos battlefield via the Very High Heavens but eventually, he had to auction out his page of the Book of Luo in an attempt to protect his own life. Once an item like the Book of Luo was revealed, if one wasn’t strong enough, one could only auction it out otherwise, it would act like a written taoist voodoo which was supposed to hasten a person’s death.



According to Mo Wuji’s plan, he would wait for himself to advance to become an Immortal Reverent first before refining the Book of Luo and Kun Wu Sword.



Now that this last page of the Book of Luo had appeared, he would definitely not let it go. Mo Wuji had a feeling that once he missed this page of the Book of Luo, it would be incredibly difficult for him to find it again.



After conversing with Lou Si, he managed to pick out a few important points from Lou Si’s words. The Very High Heavens was basically nothing unique here because there were a lot of other planeroid just like the Very High Heavens. Once the page of the Book of Luo was sold to some other person from some other planeroid, how was he ever going to obtain that last page?



"If I had known about this, I wouldn’t have killed that immortal from the human race. Now that I am unable to enter the Human Race Corridor, how am I supposed to head to the auction?" Mo Wuji furrowed his brows as he sighed.



"Big Brother Mo wants to join the auction?"



Mo Wuji nodded, "Yes but is the auction organised by the Heaven’s Beyond Human Race Corridor? If I want to go to the Human Race Corridor, is there any other way to do so?"



Lou Si hurried to shake her head, "Big Brother Mo, the auction isn’t organised or hosted by the human race. It is hosted by a communal domain where different races coexist here in the Cosmos. It is a place where regardless of whether you’re from the human or the demon race, you would be able to enter."



"What do you mean?" Mo Wuji looked doubtfully at Lou Si.



Lou Si explained, "The Heaven’s Beyond Corridor is actually a corridor suspended along the void of the Cosmos without an end. The demon race occupied one side of the corridor while the human race occupied the other side. In each of the demon and human race’s domain, there would be a transfer array and this transfer array would lead people to the true Cosmos domain. 99% of the people in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor came from the transfer array."



The reason why she said 99% was because Lou Si was certain that Mo Wuji didn’t come from that transfer array. Otherwise, he wouldn’t not know all these common knowledge.



Mo Wuji frowned as he said, "Even so, I would still be unable to leave the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor ah. I’ve killed a member of the demon race and human race so I have hatred from both side?"



Lou Si smiled, "If Big Brother Mo wasn’t a shop owner here at the Heaven’s Beyond City Square, you would naturally be unable to go over. Now that you’re a shop owner, there wouldn’t be a problem anymore. Any shop owner of the Heaven’s Beyond City Square would be able to enter the Cosmos Communal Domain from either the demon race or human race’s domain. Regardless whether they are from the demon or human race, they would not be able to act against a shop owner of the Heaven’s Beyond City Square. The only inconvenience would be the exuberant price for a shop owner to transfer to the Cosmos Communal Domain; it is about 10 times more than the ordinary people."



Mo Wuji’s spirits was instantly lifted, "I didn’t know there was such an advantage. Let’s go then, let’s hurry to finish my tribulation and then head towards the Cosmos Communal Domain."



To Mo Wuji, the auction for the Book of Luo was not the only reason for his intention to visit the Cosmos Communal Domain. In addition to the Book of Luo, Mo Wuji hoped to ask around for more news of the whereabouts of Lin Gu and Cen Shuyin.





















Chapter 755: Fighting An Immortal Reverent



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



When the unpleasant looking bisexual Immortal Reverent Ji Qi noticed that Mo Wuji and Lou Si actually dared to leave their shop and walked towards the exit of the Heaven’s Beyond City Square, he was instantly delighted. He wanted both the man and woman now. To think they actually dared to mess with him, he would want to make this man and woman understand what kind of person he, Ji Qi, was.



"Big Brother Mo, should we wait for a while before leaving? That bisexual man is still watching us," Even though Mo Wuji might not be fearful of that Ji Qi, Lou Si was still constantly worried about that intersex fella.



Mo Wuji chuckled, "I would be more worried if he doesn’t follow us."



Having said that, Mo Wuji dashed out of the city square and Lou Si had no choice but to follow closely behind Mo Wuji.



"Oh yes, Lou Si, there is still something I want to ask you. The desert wasteland of the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor is vast and boundless which could conceal as many people as it wished but why didn’t anyone choose to hide there?" Mo Wuji finally asked the question that had been bothering him since the very beginning.



Lou Si shook her head as she explained, "I am not too sure of the specific reason but all I know is that whoever tried to hide and stay in the desert wasteland, no matter how strong they were, would not last more than 10 days. Ten days later, they would vanished without a trace. It is only during limitless big war where people could actually stay on the desert wasteland. Honestly, I’ve always been wondering how did you end up on the desert wasteland?"



Mo Wuji’s heart sunk at the thought of the possibility that Lin Gu and Cen Shuyin could have been transferred to the desert wasteland.



"Big Brother Mo, continue walking forward would be the entrance to the desert wasteland. Are we heading there?" Lou Si interrupted Mo Wuji’s train of thoughts.



"Yes, let’s go!" Mo Wuji nodded his head because he was certain that his lightning tribulation into the Immortal Reverent Stage would be terrifying and such terrifying tribulation could only be done in the desert wasteland.



Mo Wuji and Lou Si had been out of the city square for less than two hours and Ji Qi had already rushed out to block them, "I really admire your courage but you should at most be only an Immortal King right? To think you would actually dare to snatch a person of mine and even lure me out into the desert wasteland."



Ji Qi’s hands were behind his back as he stared coldly at Mo Wuji wondering why Mo Wuji had such courage within him. The reason for his guess that Mo Wuji was at most an Immortal King was mainly because of Mo Wuji’s age; he sensed that Mo Wuji was not old at all.



Ji Qi had a kind of ability in which even Immortal Emperors might not possessed. This was his ability to judge the estimate age of the other party. In his eyes, Mo Wuji looked less than a hundred years old and in the Cultivation World, he was like a newborn baby. By guessing Mo Wuji was an Immortal King, Ji Qi was already assuming that Mo Wuji was a genius among geniuses to achieve such remarkable progress in such a short period of time.



Mo Wuji raised his hand and the Half Moon Weighted Halberd appeared on his hand as he replied, "I admire you too, to think you actually dare to chase after me."



Indeed, Mo Wuji had some admiration for this Ji Qi because having seen himself enter the desert wasteland so fearlessly, normal people would reconsider their decision whether or not to follow them in. However, this fella actually dared to follow Mo Wuji into desert wasteland so Mo Wuji did have some level of admiration for his guts.



Lou Si, who was standing by the side, had already drew out her magic treasure anxiously as she stared at Ji Qi.



"Why aren’t you acting yet?" Seeing that Mo Wuji only drew out his magic treasure and stood down there, Ji Qi was surprised.



"What?" If Mo Wuji didn’t wish to test and see if he could finish off an intermediate Immortal Reverent, he would have started igniting his lightning tribulation already.



"Didn’t you lure me here so you can use a deathtrap array you set up against me? You can’t possibly be an Immortal Reverent too right?" Ji Qi asked surprisingly.



Having noticed Mo Wuji’s protecting array around his shophouse, Ji Qi guessed that Mo Wuji should be an array master and that the reason why Mo Wuji lured him here would be to use a deathtrap array to deal with him.



He, Ji Qi, was also an array master so why would he fear Mo Wuji’s deathtrap array?



Ji Qi made this assumption because he believed that if Mo Wuji didn’t make use of a deathtrap array, he would have no chance of winning him at all. Even if he judged Mo Wuji’s cultivation level wrongly, he was extremely confident that mo Wuji was not an Immortal Emperor. Without mentioning that an Immortal Emperor would not be allowed to set up a shop in the city square, an Immortal Emperor wouldn’t even need to lure him out to deal with him. Therefore, it never crossed his mind that Mo Wuji might be an Immortal Emperor.



This fella’s observation and deduction skills were pretty decent to think that he could tell that Mo Wuji was proficient in Array Dao just from the arrays he installed around his shop. However, this fella was too arrogant if he thinks that Mo Wuji needed to make use of deathtrap array to deal with him.



Mo Wuji couldn’t be bothered to waste any more time as his whirlpool domain extended outwards and the Half Moon Weighted Halberd in his hand drew out a wild and overwhelming sand shadow.



The instance Mo Wuji attacked, Ji Qi’s face turned serious because he could tell that Mo Wuji was indeed pretty strong. It was his first time witnessing such whirlpool domain and even his Half Moon Weighted Halberd’s overwhelming desert shadow was not an ordinary sacred art.



It was only at this moment when he finally realised that Mo Wuji lured him here to attack him head to head. Ji Qi had seen many mad men but this was the first time he saw a person as crazy and ridiculous as Mo Wuji. However, Ji Qi enjoyed the thrill of battle against a madman like this and it had been too long since he fought a real expert.



He wanted this man and woman so that he could tell them that he, Ji Qi, is the strongest man and also the strongest woman around.



A circular magic treasure was drawn out by Ji Qi and it swept up an entire sky of immortal energy. Concurrently, Ji Qi’s domain was like waves going straight against Mo Wuji’s domain as his intention was to crush Mo Wuji’s domain forcefully.



However, it only took a few seconds for Ji Qi to realise that even though he was in the intermediate Immortal Reverent Stage, his domain was unable to even break through Mo Wuji’s domain, let alone crush it.



On the other hand, Mo Wuji recognised the circular magic treasure the moment Ji Qi drew it out. It was actually a dressing table.



Throughout the many years of cultivation, this was the first time Mo Wuji witnessed a cultivator using a dressing table to fight.



The dressing table was like a coloured glass wall as it blocked off Mo Wuji’s torrenting silver water halberd radiance. The sky full of halberd radiance exploded in mid air as it was also unable to pierce through Ji Qi’s dressing table.



Lou Si, who was standing by the side, soon realised that she had no chance to help out at all. Whether it was against Mo Wuji or against Ji Qi, the difference in strength was simply too vast.



"Boom!" The remaining desert exploded, immortal energy surged outwards and while Mo Wuji was sent flying backwards, he shouted in mid-air, "Lou Si, go all the way to the back."



Traces of sadness flashed across Lou Si’s eyes because Mo Wuji and herself were both Immortal Kings yet she was helpless while Mo Wuji was evenly matched against Ji Qi. Additionally, she needed to stand further away so that she wouldn’t get in Mo Wuji’s way or be a burden to him."



"If you’re only this strong, you should be accompanying me on my bed tonight," Ji Qi’s sharp laughter could be heard as his dressing table transformed into an entire world and this world was like a massive mouth which was about to swallow Mo Wuji.



Mo Wuji let out a loud cry as his Half Moon Weighted Halberd fell from the sky. A Winding River descended as this was his true sacred art. The previous overwhelming sand was merely a simplified version of his Grand Desert. His main intention was to test how great the difference between an intermediate Immortal Reverent and himself truly was.



The truth didn’t disappoint Mo Wuji because his immortal energy was not any weaker than Ji Qi’s. In fact, the purity of his immortal energy was greater than his opponent and even his sea of consciousness was broader than Ji Qi’s.



The opponent was only stronger in terms of his Immortal Reverent’s dao spirituality. However, it didn’t mean much to Mo Wuji because Mo Wuji never felt that he was weaker in terms of any form of dao.



Ji Qi’s dressing table was a world itself and this world was transformed from Ji Qi’s sacred art dao spirituality. There are mountains, water, wind and rain… Any person trapped within his world would forever live within Ji Qi’s dao insights.



The pity was that his opponent was Mo Wuji, a creator and and forerunner of the immortal mortal dao.



The Winding River turned into silver radiance as it looked like massive and long silver cord being drawn out from a grey space.



Ji Qi’s dressing table’s world looked perfect but under Mo Wuji’s long silver cord, a crack started appearing on the radiant dressing table.



The gap from the crack might be small but even a small gap would cause the energy of the dressing table’s world to seep out. The world started changing rapidly as the mountains and sea started shrinking and the wind and rain started disappearing.



The dressing table remained as a dressing table while the Winding River grew clearer and mightier by the second.



Ji Qi’s dressing table looked perfect but it was only on the surface. In Mo Wuji’s eyes, the small world was full of loopholes. If Ji Qi used any other magic treasure to fight with him, he could hold off Mo Wuji for a while but it was simply courting death on Ji Qi’s part to use this type of magic treasure against Mo Wuji.



"You are in the Great Circle of the Immortal Reverent Stage…" Ji Qi exclaimed shockingly because even after clashing with Mo Wuji’s sacred art and domain, he was still unable to tell Mo Wuji’s true cultivation level. However, this casual silver Winding River sacred art actually broke his world so he presumed that this must be the power of an expert in the Great Circle of the Immortal Reverent Stage, or even the Immortal Emperor Stage. If he didn’t know that Immortal Emperors were not allowed to open a shop in the city square, he would have believed that Mo Wuji was an Immortal Emperor.



Under the destruction of the Winding River, Ji Qi could no longer underestimate Mo Wuji as immortal energy started surging into his dressing table and his domain charged forward aggressively.



Even if Mo Wuji was an expert in the advanced Immortal Reverent Stage, he wouldn’t be able to force Ji Qi back like Mo Wuji just did. This meant that the only possibility was that Mo Wuji was in the Great Circle of the Immortal Reverent Stage.



"Boom!" The Winding River exploded as the glossy radiance from the dressing table dissipated into thin air at this same moment. The massive explosion of immortal energy and domains turned the entire space between them into a humongous gorge.



Ji Qi was sent flying with blood coming out from his mouth.



Even though Mo Wuji didn’t regard Ji Qi’s world as extraordinary, Ji Qi’s tremendous immortal energy surged over and Mo Wuji could still feel the impact on his chest and trembles in his sea of consciousness.



Despite this, Mo Wuji bubbled forward as he stepped out while the halberd turned into thousands of devastating halberd radiance charging towards Ji Qi.



He knew his own strength so he was well aware that even if he hadn’t stepped into the Immortal Reverent Stage, he wouldn’t fear an advanced Immortal Reverent. This was unless the opponent was as heaven defying as Huang Sha or Lei Hongji.



















Chapter 756: The One and Only Immortal Reverent Lightning Tribulation



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



"Stop!" Ji Qi shouted anxiously. At the moment he saw a sky filled with only halberd radiance descending upon him, the halberd radiance was the only thing in his mind and even Ji Qi’s faith was destroyed.



If Ji Qi was fighting for his life against Mo Wuji using all his sacred arts, Mo Wuji wouldn’t be able to kill him this easily. However, after his dressing table was destroyed by Mo Wuji’s Winding River, his guts shrinked and subconsciously, he kept thinking that Mo Wuji was many times stronger than himself. Moreover, because of the fact that he couldn’t fly and escape here, he had lost all fighting spirit.



Mo Wuji would naturally not stop as the halberd radiance destroyed Ji Qi’s domain and Ji Qi was the next one to be torn into pieces by the halberd.



Lou Si watched on shockingly at Mo Wuji crushing Ji Qi into fragments and was in a complete daze for a long period of time.



Ji Qi was afterall a reputable demon race’s bisexual Immortal Reverent and an intermediate one too. Even if he wasn’t that strong, he couldn’t possibly be so weak that he was killed so simply by Mo Wuji?



She suddenly thought of the genius immortal Lei Hongji and how he managed to kill an elementary Immortal Reverent while being at the intermediate Immortal King Stage. Due to this incident, he was already famous throughout the entire Cosmos because the number of cultivators like Lei Hongji could be counted with the fingers in one hand. If Lei Hongji was a peak grade genius, what would Mo Wuji be?



"Did you think it was very easy for me to kill this bisexual man?" Mo Wuji asked as he walked over.



Lou Si nodded subtly because she was really convinced that Mo Wuji killed Ji Qi easily as she didn’t witness any scenes of deadlock between the two of them throughout the fight.



Mo Wuji smiled faintly, "In a battle between cultivators, the simplicity and flexible use of the immortal energy would be the most important. However, after advancing past the Immortal King Stage, immortal energy would only be secondary."



"What is the most important then?" Lou Si casually asked.



"More importantly, it is how strong your spiritual will is and how great your sea of consciousness is. Even so, I don’t believe that these are the main factors to determine the winner. If the difference in grade between the two cultivators is not too huge, the main factor to determine the winner would be the dao," Mo Wuji explained calmly.



"Dao?" Lou Si seemed to be at loss because in her eyes, the stronger the immortal energy, the stronger you would be and the stronger you are, the stronger your spiritual will and eventually your sacred art. Dao is the enlightenment of every cultivator towards the Laws of Heaven and Earth and every cultivator has a dao belonging to themselves. Such things should not affect a battle and to Lou Si, it would be the factor which have the least effect on the battle. Dao is the embodiment of one’s cultivation and the cognition in which one pursues.



"Once you’ve reached a certain level of cultivation, fighting depends on the law of dao. That bisexual man relied on the cultivation resource of the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor to force himself into the Immortal Reverent Stage so his dao foundation is still unstable. In actual fact, I know of a few Immortal Kings who are much stronger than him too," Mo Wuji said this with the intention to offer some guidance to Lou Si.



In a place like the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor, one would indeed be able to increase one’s cultivation level rapidly but there were many obvious cases of malpractices too. He managed to sense a little bit of this malpractice from Ji Qi’s body which was why he realised that even though his dao was self created, he shouldn’t coop himself in a place like this just to cultivate.



"Many thanks Big Brother Mo for your guidance," Lou Si seemed to understand how Mo Wuji was using his own experience to give her pointers.



Mo Wuji nodded, "Guard for me as I prepare to undergo my tribulation."



The truth was that a majority of people were well aware of the argument which Mo Wuji just put across. However, in the face of that many resources, immortals who could control their thirst to become stronger faster were only a minute few.



Before Lou Si’s arrival, Mo Wuji would have finished this bisexual off and then advance into the Immortal Reverent Stage before going back into seclusion. Other than refining the six pages of the Book of Luo, he would want to continue cultivating and reach the advanced Immortal Reverent Stage before coming out of seclusion.



However, Mo Wuji had changed his own intention as he decided that after he reached the Immortal Reverent Stage, he would focus on stabilizing his dao foundation as well as solidifying his own Grand Dao instead of cultivating wildly. This was also because one shouldn’t be too weak in a place like the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor. Otherwise, Mo Wuji would not even advance into the Immortal Reverent Stage here.



…



Piles of green crystals, immortal crystals, spiritual veins and even immortal essence crystals were brought out by Mo Wuji before he started setting up his energy gathering array.



Lou Si watched upon Mo Wuji’s actions in shock because she was well aware of how long Mo Wuji had been in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor. Mo Wuji had only been here for a short period of time but he was taking out tens of thousands green crystals at one go. Even though there were a lot of cultivation resources in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor, it wasn’t to the extent where there was green crystals everywhere. She was also an Immortal King and she came to the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor much earlier than Mo Wuji but in her case, she had to fight hard for every single green crystal which she obtained. And even after she obtained the green crystal, she would still need to fight against countless of opponents just to survive.



Presently, Mo Wuji had already started charging towards the barrier of the Immortal Reverent Stage. The green crystal would not only allow one to cultivate at an insane speed, it would also allow one to touch the barrier of the next realm very quickly. If one possessed all sorts of peak grade pills required, it would indeed be very easy for one to advance into the next realm here in a place like the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor.



The only thing Lou Si didn’t understand was why Mo Wuji would still take out items like immortal veins and immortal crystals. She knew about the green crystal and how the cultivation effectiveness of the green crystal was much greater than all types of immortal crystals.



As she saw that Mo Wuji had started charging towards the Immortal Reverent Stage, Lou Si was completely dumbfounded again. She had never seen a person absorb the energy of the green crystal as immensely as Mo Wuji. The elemental energy extracted from the green crystal were forming a massive whirlpool above Mo Wuji’s head.



Wrong, upon closer look, Lou Si noticed that it wasn’t a massive whirlpool but hundreds of small whirlpools merging together to look like one massive whirlpool being absorbed by Mo Wuji.



Lou Si took in a breath of cold air as she finally understood why Mo Wuji would draw out the immortal veins as well as the immortal crystals. With such an intense rate of absorbing immortal energy, no amount of green crystals would be enough for him to use.



Endless Grand Dao energy of the Heaven and Earth started circulating around Mo Wuji’s body as the aura forming around Mo Wuji started growing exponentially. Lou Si was certain that as long as Mo Wuji had the Extreme Reverent Pill, advancing to the Immortal Reverent Stage wouldn’t be difficult at all.



"Boom boom boom!" Explosive thunders could be heard as endless amount of thick lightning bolts started descending.



Lou Si was so terrified at the sight of this she hurried to take a few steps back. The truth was that she had seen Immortal Reverent tribulations more than once before but none of them was even close to the state of Mo Wuji’s tribulation. She was certain that even Immortal Emperor’s tribulation would not be as terrifying and chaotic as Mo Wuji’s one.



For the normal Immortal Reverent tribulation, every wave of lightning bolts would not exceed 18 but this single wave of Mo Wuji’s tribulation already had hundreds of lightning bolts. Besides, every single lightning bolt that descended were far too petrifying…



For such a lightning tribulation, even Immortal Emperor would find it hard to go through it, let alone an Immortal King.



Just as Lou Si was still in awe at the frightening lightning bolts, endless amount of lightning bolts had already landed on Mo Wuji’s body. Lou Si was so scared that she couldn’t even open her eyes to witness this scene. She was also disappointed with herself because she was supposed to guard and protect Mo Wuji but she had no way to rescue Mo Wuji under such circumstances.



Mo Wuji was also shocked because even though he knew how extraordinarily scary his lightning tribulations were before, he certainly didn’t expect it to be to this extent.



For every other tribulation that he had been through, he was different from others because neither did he used any defensive treasures nor armours to fend against the lightnings. This time round, Mo Wuji actually felt vulnerable.



Split second later, lightning bolts landed on his body and not only did he circulate his immortal mortal technique to the maximum rate, even his physique tempering technique was executed fully.



"Pff!" Despite the insane extent at which Mo Wuji was absorbing and defending against the lightning bolts, blood started splashing out of his fleshly body and his bones started cracking when the boundless lightning bolts condensed to strike his body.



Just as Lou Si opened her eyes and saw the devastating state of Mo Wuji, she shut her eyes again as she started praying in her heart. All she could do now would be to wait for Mo Wuji to fall and then bring his corpse out of this place.



At the instance the lightning bolt descended on his own body, Mo Wuji could feel his immortal energy rising tremendously and the purple lake within his sea of consciousness started expanding at an extensive manner. Even his fleshly body which had plateaued at the same stage for a long time started tempering again…



Initially, Mo Wuji was tempted to take out his magic treasure but he stopped himself forcefully as he swallowed multiple healing pills instead. Concurrently, he continued to circulate his physique tempering technique as he charged towards the Immortal Reverent Realm. This was not only his opportunity to charge into the Immortal Reverent Realm but also his opportunity to charge towards the advanced God Physique Stage. Why would Mo Wuji let such an opportunity slip by?



"Boom boom boom boom!" Just as Mo Wuji’s bones were started to heal, more thick and condensed lightning bolts fell.



Lou Si opened her eyes and logically speaking, if Mo Wuji died under the first wave of lightning bolts, the second wave shouldn’t have descended right? Could it be that Mo Wuji had yet to die?



"Kaka, Boom!"



It was almost at the same time the lightning bolt landed on Mo Wuji’s body when he broke through the barrier of the Immortal Reverent as well as the God Physique Level 7.



An extremely mighty Immortal Reverent energy started surging around Mo Wuji’s body and the bones broken by the second wave of lightning bolts were healing rapidly. Even before Mo Wuji could stabilise his cultivation, the third wave of lightning bolts started exploding downwards.



Not only was the third wave of lightning bolts much more mightier than the first and second wave, it brought along a frightening energy with a trace of death. The dusky space appeared like it was split apart and receptacles of lightning bolts seemed to break apart as all the lightning source turned into descending lightning bolts.



The defending Mo Wuji suddenly stood up straight and charged towards the foremost wave of lightning bolts as he threw out a punch.



At this moment, his heart had this unassailable thirst to charge towards the source of the lightning bolts just to punch through it.



"Kacha!" Lightning bolts exploded and despite the fact that it looked mightier than the first two waves of lightnings, Mo Wuji appeared to be unharm. This was not only due to Mo Wuji advancing into the Immortal Reverent Stage but also because of his God Physique Level 7.



"Bang!" Mo Wuji landed with both feet on the ground as it created a deep pit.



The desert wasteland had returned to its original appearance as it turned dusky again. Mo Wuji looked unpleasantly at the dusky space in front of him because he wanted more waves of lightning bolts for hm to stabilise his strength.



He had just stepped into the Immortal Reverent Realm and God Physique Level 7 yet there were no more lightning bolts to authenticate it. It seemed like he would be the only Immortal Reverent who only had three waves of lightning tribulations.



Lou Si was still in a daze as she stared blankly at the ragged Mo Wuji looking towards the sky above the desert wasteland. She simply couldn’t believe her eyes.



This was the first time she witnessed an Immortal Reverent tribulation being more frightening that the Immortal Emperor tribulation and also her first time witnessing an Immortal Reverent tribulation with only three waves of lightning. Naturally, this was also her first time seeing someone complete such a heaven defying tribulation and still wanted more of it?



















Chapter 757: To Obtain Wealth, One Had To Take Risks

"Congratulations Big Brother Mo for advancing into the Immortal Reverent Stage," As Lou Si noticed that Mo Wuji had stopped staring at the sky, she hurried to contain the shock within her as she went forward to congratulate Mo Wuji.



Mo Wuji chuckled, "Given your talent, you wouldn’t take long to step into the Immortal Reverent Stage too. Now that I’ve killed that bisexual man, would you rather stay in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square or follow me to the Cosmos Communal Domain?"



Lou Si sighed, "I’ve always wanted to leave the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor but I never had the chance to do so because of the lack of green crystals. For someone like me who had stayed in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor for more than 5 years, I need to give the Demon Clan 10,000 green crystals as a form of contribution if I wanted to leave this place. Additionally, there was also the 2000 transfer array fees. Even if I were to sell everything I have with me, it wouldn’t even add up to that many green crystals."



Mo Wuji heard Lou Si’s words and the expression on his face instantly turned ugly.



Previously, Lou Si mentioned about how the fees for shop owners to use the transfer array to leave the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor was 10 times more than ordinary people. Where was he going to find so many green crystals? Moreover, he didn’t have enough green crystals for Lou Si too.



"I don’t have that many green crystals," Mo Wuji said helplessly.



Ten times of 12,000 green crystals would be an amount over 100,000 green crystals.



Lou Si replied promptly, "Big Brother Mo, I am the assistant for your shop so you just need to bring me along when you board the transfer array. There is no need to pay additional fees for me. Because you’re the shop owner in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square, you only need to pay 25,000 green crystals to board the transfer array to the Cosmos Communal Domain. Naturally, we have to leave from the Human Race’s side because the Demon Race might demand the 10,000 contribution green crystals from me if we choose to leave from the Demon Race’s transfer array."



25,000? Mo Wuji immediately understood that because he wasn’t from the Human or Demon Race, there was no need for him to pay the contribution fees.



However, he didn’t even have 200 green crystals on him, let alone 20,000. Mo Wuji entered the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor with only about 100,000 green crystals and he had already used up about 70,000 during his seclusion and another 30,000 for his tribulation.



Loy Si saw Mo Wuji’s expression and he instantly knew that Mo Wuji couldn’t bring out 25,000 green crystals. She hesitated for a while before saying, "Big Brother Mo, if you have no intention to come back, you can sell the shophouse."



"You’re not planning to come back?" Mo Wuji looked doubtfully at Lou Si because from Lou Si’s tone, he could tell that Lou Si wanted to leave this place for good.



Lou Si nodded, "En, back then, I joined the demon army only because I wanted to help someone. It was only some time later when I realised that joining is easy while leaving is simply too difficult."



"What do you mean?" Mo Wuji was slightly confused.



Lou Si explained, "There are many races living within the Cosmos Communal Domain and while there was no need to participate in the war of the Cosmos Wall, one would still need to pay the necessary rent. Because both cultivation and rent required the use of large amount of green crystals, a friend of mine owed a lot of green crystals because he went under seclusion to cultivate.



He was unable to return these green crystals so his only possible solution was to head to the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor to fight for resources from the Cosmos Wall. During the opening of the Cosmos Wall, he was in seclusion so I went to the Cosmos Wall on his behalf. I didn’t expect my trip to be several years long and presently, it is getting increasingly hard even for me to survive here, let alone thinking about leaving this place."



Mo Wuji looked surprisingly at Lou Si as he didn’t expect that such a noble and honest immortal like Lou Si still exist in this world. This was equivalent to serving in the army for someone else so it seemed like Lou Si’s relationship with her friend must not be simple at all.



"So how did the green crystals you obtained manage to reach him?" Mo Wuji continued to question.



Lou Si sighed deeply, "I was introduced to this place by the merchant house in which my friend owed the green crystals to. This merchant house is very successful and even had branches in both the Human and Demon Corridors. I have been here for seven years and participated in four of the wars to snatch for resources. A portion of the rewards I obtained would belong to the Demon Race, a portion to repay the debts to the merchant house and then a portion will be brought to my friend by the merchant house. The remaining would be used for me to cultivate."



Mo Wuji sighed too as he didn’t continue questioning any further. He was certain that Lou Si’s friend was up to no good because one couldn’t possibly cultivate under closed doors for such a long period of time continuously. If this friend was of decent character, he would have visited her here at the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor a long time ago. A friend, who made Lou Si fight for resources on his behalf for over 7 years, was evidently taking advantage of her.



"Lou Si, I have no green crystals with me but I have an idea. Since we are going to leave the city square soon, we shall start a business here. I will concoct pills while you watch the shop for me. As long as I don’t continue the business for years, it shouldn’t have much influence in the city square," Mo Wuji replied.



He would definitely not sell the shophouse in the city square because this was the best place to gather cultivation resources. Once he sold his shophouse, it wouldn’t be easy for him to get it back again. Even if he was not coming back anymore, it wouldn’t matter.



"You’re a pill emperor?" Lou Si looked at Mo Wuji in astonishment as she asked in disbelief.



If Mo Wuji wasn’t a pill emperor, how would he be able to casually take out Green Bodhi Pills for her?



Mo Wuji nodded, "That’s right, I am indeed a pill emperor. I believe that with my pill dao alchemy, it wouldn’t take long for me to earn a sum of green crystals in the city square."



Lou Si took in a deep breath before looking at Mo Wuji again, "Big Brother Mo, if you trust me, you must not concoct and sell pills here. Otherwise, you will only invite endless troubles for yourself. Do you know why there are extremely little pill refiners as well as smith master?"



"Why?" Mo Wuji asked anxiously.



Lou Si subconsciously lowered her voice as she said, "Because the better pill and smith masters were convinced and brought away. Those who were refused to leave would disappear without a trace after some time."



"They were all killed?" Mo Wuji’s heart almost jumped out of his mouth because could this place have something against pill and smith masters?



"No, only a minority of pill and smith masters were killed here while majority of them were captured and forced to leave with experts of each race to be concoct pills or refine equipments for them. And these pill and smith masters would basically be on the city square of the Cosmos Communal Domain. Following which, the pills and equipments which they concoct and forged out would be given to the higher ups of the Human or Demon Race depending on who they were brought away to work for," Lou Si explained in details.



Even without further explanation from Lou Si, Mo Wuji understood what was going on. Throughout the years, countless of pills and weapons were necessary for the numerous wars that had been fought. To increase their strength, these higher ups of each race needed many more weapons and pills in order to collect more resources in each war.



There were not many pills and smith masters to begin with and with so many people in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor in addition to the people in the Cosmos Communal Domain, it would be almost impossible for everyone to be equipped with weapons and pills.



Besides these reasons, it was possible that the Heaven’s Beyond City Square was another powerhouse by itself. This powerhouse should have its own merchant house which sells pills and magic treasures. If there were random pill and smith masters walking around the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor, there would be much more competition for them.



"Lou Si, is there a merchant house with a wide variety of pills which is opened by the Heaven’s Beyond City Square itself?" Mo Wuji spurted out his question at the thought of it.



"It seems like even you know about it. Yes, there is indeed a merchant house that sells a wide variety of pills and magic treasures but the prices were simply too intimidating. I’ve heard that it was opened by an extremely reputable person and I am certain that it was not opened by the city square itself," Lou Si replied.



Mo Wuji pondered for a moment before saying, "To obtain wealth, one had to take risks. If I am constantly worried about being restrained, I will eventually be restrained. I am going to open up my pill court at the Heaven’s Beyond City Square now but you can decide for yourself. Leave with me if you’re interested but if you’re worried, you should wait for me at the Demon Corridor."



Mo Wuji had no alternative because the Cosmos Wall only opened up once every few years and it was already considered fortunate for him to have seen the Cosmos Wall once in his two years here. There was simply way too many treasures in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square and the moment he leaves this place, he would be dreaming if he wished to find another place with these much resources and green crystals again. He was certain that things wouldn’t be this good even in the Cosmos Communal Domain. Once he decided to settle down and cultivate, how long would he take if he had no green crystals and only immortal crystals for his cultivation?



"Big Brother Mo, I am following you," Lou Si seemed to have no hesitation when answering Mo Wuji.



During her years in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square, she had countless of near death incidents. If she wasn’t hardworking enough to fight for everything, she would have still be stuck at the Grand Luo Immortal Stage.



…



The Heaven’s Beyond City Square was as crowded as before and only a few people noticed that the shophouse, which was closed for about two to three years, had finally reopened.



This magic treasure shophouse was turned into Mortal Pill House and it actually sold Immortal Pills ranging from Tier 4 to Tier 6. The most impressive feature about this pill house was that it would even concoct pills for customers. Even though the fee was about six times the price of the already concocted pills, it was still considered dirt cheap as compared to the other shops around.



What was the most abundant in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor? There were all sorts of high tier immortal herbs, green crystals and countless of valuable materials. On the other hand, what was lacking the most would be immortal pills, magic treasures and even more so, pill masters willing to help customers concoct pills of their own request.



















Chapter 758: The Blooming Pill House



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



"A shop called Mortal Pill House recently emerged in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square and it sells pills of high and unique grade. Additionally, there were also countless of healing pills on sale."



"Haha, I bet it is another Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion where they really did sell loads of good items but the pity is that you can’t afford it."



"Yes, I’ve went to the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion previously to purchase a Clean Solitary Pill. A mere Tier 4 healing pill actually exchanged for my Grade 9 Southern Fire Rod and 5 of my green crystals. Back where I came from, I was able to exchange over ten vases of Tier 9 healing pills with the same items."



"No, the Mortal Pill House is truly selling great items at a reasonable price. I purchased a vase of Alioth Gold Pill for only 10 green crystals…"



"This is definitely impossible! The Gold Alioth Pill is a Tier 5 healing pill and one pill itself was worth more than 10 green crystals and a few immortal herbs in total. You’re lying to us!"



"Wang Lu wasn’t lying because I’ve visited the Mortal Pill House too where I’ve even bought a unique grade Green Bodhi Pill. The most affordable item there wasn’t the already made pills but their service of concocting pills of your request. The pity was that I’ve ran out of immortal herbs to exchange because otherwise, I could even request for them to concoct Tier 7 Immortal Pills for me. Moreover, I wouldn’t need to pay a single green crystal because they are only collecting six times the price to concoct the pills."



…



Similar discussions were heard all over the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor.



Because of these discussions, countless of immortals surged towards the Heaven’s Beyond City Square regardless of their race. They came to the city square with only one purpose; and that was to visit the Mortal Pill House.



Regardless of the validity of the rumours, paying a visit would not go wrong. If it was true, they could purchase several healing pills and even request for someone to concoct pills for them which was equivalent to having one extra life.



…



Back at the Mortal Pill House, Lou Si was in shock at the sight of so many people surfing in. The rate at which the rumours spread was simply too exaggerated because their signboard had only been up for three days and so many people had already heard of it. One must know that Lou Si and Mo Wuji didn’t even come up with any publicity measures.



Despite her efforts to get people to start queuing up, the queue was still broken up into a mess slightly further down the city square. To make things worse, people in the queue were pushing against each other in an attempt to be further in front in the queue.



Lou Si had never experienced such situation before and was therefore, in a loss in front of a crowd of desperate customers like this.



Fortunately, Mo Wuji came out as he stood in front of the shop and clasped his fist towards the queue before saying, "The Mortal Pill House was opened in the hope of doing everyone in the Heaven’s Beyond Corridor a favour which was why we offered such affordable prices for good quality products. However, if everyone continues to push and squeeze in such chaotic manner, it might cause trouble for the city square. Once the city square intervenes, my Mortal Pill House could only close down and leave."



"Whoever dares to let the Mortal Pill House close down, I will be the first to object."



"I will kill whoever dares to close down the Mortal Pill House!"



…



All sorts of clamours sounded out made Mo Wuji pleased because he wanted such an effect. Even so, he revealed a serious and solemn expression before saying, "I have an idea. How about every person who wants to trade with my Mortal Pill House takes a queue number?"



"Where do we take the queue number from?" Some anxious cultivators couldn’t wait for Mo Wuji to finish his words as they asked.



Mo Wuji used his hand to indicate for the crowd to lower down their volume, "Everyone please listen to me. I will install an array outside my shophouse for each and everyone of you to collect a number. Everyone would basically need to send 10 green crystals into the array and you will be given a number. The array would call out for your number accordingly and you shall head to my shophouse to trade. Everyone should not worry because the 10 green crystals would only be temporarily placed with me and when it is your turn, the ten green crystals could be considered as part of your trade."



This method of Mo Wuji was naturally the most basic queue system back on Earth. Otherwise, with this many people queuing at the Heaven’s Beyond City Square, it would call for the intervention of the Heaven’s Beyond City Square management even if they didn’t cause any trouble here. Moreover, with so many cultivators of different races here, there would bound to be troubles.



Naturally, Mo Wuji had a deeper intention by coming up with this system.



Indeed, voices of agreement were heard once Mo Wuji’s words were out. Nobody came here with the intention to cause trouble because everyone came in hope of being able to trade for pills that they wanted.



Mo Wuji was a Grade 7 immortal array master so he only took an incense worth of time to set up the array used for the queue system.



As long as one threw 10 green crystals into the array, one would receive a thin jade token. Those who received the jade token would be required to leave the venue and not allowed to continue queuing. Once the shop called out for an individual’s number, the individual would be able to enter the Mortal Pill House to trade.



Once the system was put in place, the queue definitely shorten as even though everyone was nearby wandering about, the queue was no longer as extravagant as before.



Just like Mo Wuji’s description, the Mortal Pill House would sound out a number and the immortal with the number would be allowed to enter the shophouse.



…



"Big Brother Mo, your idea is indeed great. Otherwise, the Heaven’s Beyond City Square would have used this as an excuse to close our shop," Lou Si said with admiration when she saw the instant orderliness outside the shophouse. This was something she wouldn’t be able to think of in such short period of time. Or rather, even if she thought of this idea, she wouldn’t be able to implement the array so quickly.



Her concern was not unfounded because once the queue became too long, the likelihood of fights within the queue was high.



"You are now in charge of helping me collect immortal crystals, immortal materials and handing them the pills,"Mo Wuji chuckled as he knew that his plan had worked.



"Big Brother Mo, why did you insist that they hand over 10 green crystals first? If they couldn’t make it to trade in the end, sending these green crystals back would take up quite a bit of time," This was something Lou Si didn’t understand.



If handing over the green crystals would mean that it belonged to the Mortal Pill House, it would still make sense. However, these green crystals were only advanced payment and if the cultivators didn’t trade for anything, it wouldn’t belong to the Mortal Pill House.



Mo Wuji smiled and said, "By making these people hand over 10 green crystals first, it would be equivalent to them standing on our side. If the city square wishes to act against us, they would have to reconsider their option."



Indeed, Mo Wuji’s actual motive was to use the advance payment of 10 green crystals as a mean of garnering the strength of these immortals who came to trade. Now that he had collected a large amount of green crystals, if the city square came to find trouble, the first few people to object would not be him or Lou Si but these immortals who had handed their green crystals over for a queue number.



The reason why Mo Wuji didn’t claim all these green crystals for himself was because he was well aware that even though immortals here collect a lot of resources from the Cosmos Wall, their life ain’t easy too. For every green crystal, they would have to fight and risk their life for it. Just like how the opening of the Cosmos Wall was an opportunity to obtain valuable cultivation resources, it was also a time for most of them to lose their life.



He needed green crystals for cultivation meant that it was the same for others too. He can earn a large amount of green crystals but he wouldn’t do it unscrupulously.



Lou Si was not dumb so with Mo Wuji’s brief explanation, she understood his intention. At this moment, she heaved a sigh of relief too because with such a crazy business, it would be impossible for them not to attract any unwanted attention.



…



With the queue number system, Mortal Pill House’s business grew rapidly as numerous green crystals and immortal herbs were sent into Mo Wuji’s pocket. On the other hand, pills were sent out from the Mortal Pill House into the hands of each and every visiting immortal.



Every immortal who visited the Mortal Pill House took out ten green crystals to collect a number before waiting patiently for their number to be called.



Logically speaking, with one trading immortal, the number of people waiting in the city square should decrease. However, the truth was the exact opposite as the greater the number of trades completed, the more customers came forward to collect a queue number.



Very soon, ticket scalpers appeared in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square.



These ticket scalpers queued for over ten numbers before reselling these numbers at a higher price to those who came later.



Mo Wuji was unaware of such practice but even if he knew, he wouldn’t be bothered. He was fully focused on concocting pills and at this moment, he even accepted requests of concocting Tier 8 and even Tier 9 pills.



As Lou Si watched upon the countless of immortal pills being sent out, she was already numb to it. Even though she was considered experienced and had met plenty of people before, it was truly her first time meeting a pill emperor like Mo Wuji. Where else could she find a pill emperor who concoct pills at such incredible speed? Other some Tier 9 immortal pills which Mo Wuji placed on hold, even Tier 8 immortal pills were concocted in an extreme rate by Mo Wuji.



…



Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion.



If there was still a rather decent place which sells pills and magic treasures here in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square, it had to be the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion.



They sold Tier 1 to Tier 9 immortal pills as well as Grade 1 to Grade 9 immortal equipments.



Because of their wide range of products, their business should be blooming but they were only popular for a short period of time after the opening of the Cosmos Wall. As time passed, their business stagnated. It wasn’t because of the incomplete equipments or ineffective pills but because the prices here were simply too exuberant. It was so high such that immortals, who came back from the Cosmos Wall, could only afford to visit this shop once or twice. Everytime they came, they had to control their urge to shop more.



Such situations meant little to the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion because everytime the Cosmos Wall opened, they would have earned a large sum from the more reputable personnel.



However, the abrupt emergence of an extremely popular pill house in the Heaven’s Beyond City Square made them unable to tolerate any further. They came to the Heaven’s Beyond City Square not because they wanted to have competition with anyone but because they wanted to monopolise the entire industry; they wanted to be the exclusive sellers of pills and equipment.



The Mortal Pill House had only been opened for four days and the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion convened a meeting which had never been convened for over countless of years.



There were only a total of four people participating in this meeting. They were the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion’s shop owner, Min Cheng, who was in the advanced Immortal Reverent Stage. Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion’s guard, Kuang Jin, who was also in the same stage. Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion’s External Affairs Deacon, Wen Li, who was in the intermediate Immortal Reverent Stage and the Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion’s Internal Affairs Deacon, Ran Yushui, who was an advanced Immortal King and the only female.



"Where did this Mortal Pill House come from?" This was Min Cheng’s first question when he entered as he said with a calm voice filled with intense killing intent.





















Chapter 759: At Your Door



Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations



"This person's name is Mo Wuji. Two years ago, he suddenly appeared in Heaven's Beyond Corridor. Because he killed from both the demon and human race, he was unable to find a place to stay. As a result, he went around Heaven's Beyond City Square, asking whether there were any shops for sale. Ostensibly, this person wasn't very clear about the Heaven's Beyond City Square's rules. Strangely, his pill house was actually purchased from an original shop owner called Mao Hu.



After Mao Hu sold his shop to Mo Wuji, the Cosmos Wall opened. Mo Wuji also went to the Cosmos Wall and he survived. He probably obtained many benefits from the Cosmos Wall because he entered secluded cultivation the moment he returned. He only opened his shop when he emerged from his seclusion." The person answering was Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion’s External Affairs Deacon, Wen Li.



Even though Wen Li didn't manage to obtain the news of Mo Wuji's advancement into the Immortal Reverent Stage, she basically had gathered all the information about Mo Wuji within his two years in Heaven's Beyond City Square.



"That means to say that this person isn't of some great origins?" Min Cheng's killing intent suddenly weakened.



That other woman from Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion stood up and bowed respectfully to Min Cheng, then she said, "Pavilion Head, I'm afraid this person wouldn't concoct pills for us."



She completely understood the meaning behind Min Cheng's words: he wanted to bring Mo Wuji in to concoct pills for their Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion.



Min Cheng snorted coldly, "This is not up to him to decide. A mere rogue cultivator dares to take advantage of my Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion in Heaven's Beyond City Square. He's still too young for that."



Even though this woman that just spoke was merely in the Immortal King Stage, she was actually the brains behind Mifei Pill-Smith Pavilion. Her name was Ran Yushui. When she heard Pavilion HeadMin Cheng's words, she sighed inwardly and continued speaking, "Pavilion Head, a few days ago, the woman by his side, Lou Si, had been harassed by the bisexual Immortal Reverent. After which, Mo Wuji brought that Lou Si out of Heaven’s Beyond City Square. When he returned, there was no longer any news of the bisexual Immortal Reverent."



"He killed the bisexual Immortal Reverent?" Wen Li didn’t manage to investigate this matter. When she heard Ran Yushui mention it, she immediately uttered in shock.
