Chapter 671: Encountering Familiar Faces

The Seven Great Human Warriors represented the humans who had been randomly selected to complete the Tower Spirit’s task. Once they succeeded, all the human ancient martial art practitioners would obtain a double cultivation increase.

Once this task was announced, many human ancient martial art practitioners realized that they could not afford to fail this task.

The double task was not a solo task, but a group task. If the human ancient martial art practitioners could not obtain the double increase, and the difficulty of the game remained the same, that meant that their chances of defeating the Fire Domain’s Seven Major Beast Kings were very slim.

This was not a game, but a Game of Death. The price of failure was their lives.

Right now, such an important task was borne by the seven of them. Even Mo Wen felt burdened.

A light flashed beside him. A white-robed figure suddenly appeared beside him. Mo Wen subconsciously turned his head to look. It was a person wearing a loose robe. Their figure was hidden in the white robe, and they wore a silver mask with a head of long, flowing hair. It clearly was a woman.

“What is your name?” Mo Wen asked curiously.

He could feel an astonishing aura from the woman’s body. The aura was definitely far superior to his own, even subtly having the power of a Martial Arts Grandmaster. However, it was still a tiny bit weaker than the Martial Arts Grandmaster realm.

The white-robed woman did not even look at Mo Wen. It was if he were invisible. She gazed far into the stone ocean. Her entire body emanated a chill that made strangers terrified to approach her.

Mo Wen felt awkward at being so embarrassingly rebuffed. He smiled self-consciously and did not say anymore.

Aside from him, there were other human ancient martial art practitioners being transferred to this part of the stone ocean, one after another. They were not far apart, the furthest being just a hundred meters away.

There were seven people in total. Each of them had a cultivation not lower than that of the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir Realm. All of them were renowned among humans.

Mo Wen’s gaze swept over the others. He discovered a few familiar faces. The leader of Gao Clan, Gao Hanshan, was one of the seven. Mo Wen discovered that Bu Xingyi was also among the seven. Also present was the black-robed man, who had previously left a deep impression on Mo Wen.

Mo Wen did not know the name of the black-robed man. He only knew that he was the leader of the Ghost Lair group that had come to the Fire Domain this time around and that he was an authentic immortal cultivator. It was because of his identity as an immortal cultivator that he had left a deep impression on Mo Wen.

However, what Mo Wen had least expected was that he would encounter someone so surprising.

“Little friend, we have not seen each other in a while. How have you been?”

This person clearly also had just noticed Mo Wen. He stepped forward, his figure like a feather, floating over and appearing before Mo Wen in an instant. This person was wearing a sackcloth. His figure was short and he looked like an old farmer.

When the old man floated over, the white-robed woman near Mo Wen frowned slightly. A bizarre look also flashed in Mo Wen’s eyes. It was because a rather frightening aura was emanating from the body of this old man. The strength of his aura was comparable to that of the terrifying white-robed woman.

“I never thought that I would meet senior here.” Mo Wen saluted with his fists, smiling plainly. He had met this old man once before. He was the reclusive Martial Arts Grandmaster who had been hiding away in a farming village that Mo Wen had encountered when he first came to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. This person’s cultivation was unfathomable. Mo Wen could not tell how old the man actually was. Purely based on cultivation, the old man was above a Martial Arts Grandmaster such as Gao Hanshan.

“As expected, you are not cut from the same cloth as the rest. You are a god among insects.” The elder in sackcloth nodded his head as he regarded Mo Wen with a look of praise. He had noticed in their previous encounter that Mo Wen was no ordinary young man. But he had not imagined that this youth would improve so rapidly.

“The opportunity that senior mentioned when we last met was most likely related to the Fire Domain?” Mo Wen asked with a smile.

Previously, he had made a promise with this mysterious elder. Once his cultivation was developed, Mo Wen would return to the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for the minuscule opportunity to become immortal. The Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was just a small Inner world. The chances of becoming immortal there were far less than in the other large Inner worlds. The appearance of the spiritual fire was a once in a millennium event. The likelihood of other opportunities to become immortal was slim.

“You are really clever. That’s right. In the past fifty years, I have come to this Fire Domain no less than ten times, but without exception, I have failed every time.”

A look of regret flashed in the eyes of the elder in sackcloth. He had spent fifty to sixty years planning to obtain the spiritual fire but to no avail. Still, he had never imagined that the secret would have leaked out in such a manner.

He had discovered that the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension had a spiritual fire sixty years ago. However, all this while, only he knew about this secret. Even if there were people that found out by accident, they would be silenced in time by him. But this time, too many people knew about it. He could not stop them at all.

The spiritual fire was too difficult to capture. He had spent fifty years of his life and he had not captured it.

“As expected.”

Mo Wen nodded his head, and said, “I am Mo Wen. How should I address you senior? The struggle for the spiritual fire this time will most likely be decided by fate.”

“So be it. Since it has come to this, I have looked past it. Setting aside whether I can obtain the spiritual fire, whether I can walk out of the Fighting Spirit Tower alive remains to be seen.” The elder in sackcloth shook his head and laughed gently. He said, “I am Tan Qiyue. Our fates seem to be intertwined. This space is full of danger, and the factions are complicated. When danger arises, maybe we can help and support each other.”

Mo Wen smiled as he nodded his head “What senior says is true.” Tan Qiyue’s words were most likely intended to get Mo Wen on his side. With his cultivation, the number of people in this space that could stand against him could be counted on one hand. Why would he need the help of a junior like Mo Wen? Only now did Mo Wen know that the Tan Qiyue who was ranked third on the leaderboard of 30 strongest practitioners was this old man. He was only behind Nangong Mingzhu and Chu Yuan.

In the distance, Gao Hanshan had also noticed Mo Wen. Seeing that Mo Wen was speaking with a mysterious old man, he had not approached, just nodding his head slightly.

Once Bu Xingyi saw that Mo Wen was actually here, a look of hatred immediately flashed in his eyes. He could not wait to tear Mo Wen to shreds. After a day, the news that a dignified Martial Arts Grandmaster like Bu Xingyi had lost at the hands of a junior youth had spread. Even in such a space, Bu Xingyi still could not affect the spread of public opinion.

As soon as Bu Xingyi saw Mo Wen he felt a sense of shame. If Mo Wen did not die, Bu Xingyi would most likely always be a laughing stock.

There were seven people in total who came to this place. Aside from the white-robed woman and another blue robed elder, Mo Wen recognized the other four.

The voice of the Tower Spirit suddenly sounded from high in the sky. Next, a message was transmitted into the minds of the seven. “The task will soon commence. The first stage is the braving of the stone ocean and demon forest. You only have one life, please try not to die during the task.”

The first stage of the task was to make it through the stone ocean and demon forest. Mo Wen pondered for a while and discovered that they needed to get from one end of the stone ocean to the other, traversing up to a thousand kilometers. In between, there were countless bird type monstrous beasts blocking and ambushing them. Only by cutting out a bloody path could they make their way through.

Also, the first stage of the task had a set time limit. If they could not make their way through the stone ocean and demon forest within the time limit, it would mean that they failed the task. If any of the seven failed, it meant that they had all failed the entire task.

The time limit was six hours.

Normally, ordinary Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioners could manage to travel a thousand kilometers in six hours. On this task though, there would be bird type monstrous beasts blocking their way and they had to make their way through the sea of beasts without even knowing what kind of bird type monstrous beasts they would encounter. Even Mo Wen had no idea how difficult it would be.

As the Tower Spirit finished speaking, an evil wind suddenly swept up in the stone ocean. The surrounding light was distorted as shadow after shadow of monstrous beasts seemed to slowly appear out of the void. The Devil Qi became richer. Finally, the heavens and earth seemed to be full of Devil Qi. More and more monstrous beast shadows appeared in the stone ocean, seemingly filling it completely.

Swoosh!

The white-robed woman standing near Mo Wen seemed to not hesitate at all. Her silhouette flashed and her body moved forward. Her speed was rather astonishing. In a blink of an eye, only her tiny silhouette could be seen.

This area of the stone ocean was limited by a mysterious power. They could not fly for more than ten meters. Under such circumstances, if they flew, it would be equal to gliding on the ground. This was most likely designed to prevent human ancient martial art practitioners from flying high in the sky, thereby avoiding most of the bird type monstrous beasts blocking them.

After all, aside from bird type monstrous beasts, only seventh rank monstrous beasts had the ability to fly.

“Little friend Mo Wen, I’ll make a move first.” Tan Qiyue nodded at Mo Wen, then he disappeared from his spot. Time was limited: no one was willing to delay. Also, the bird type monstrous beasts had not yet completely appeared. Given that there was not much resistance yet, they would try to cover as much distance as possible first.

Mo Wen also did not dilly-dally. With a soft step, he too flew up.

The next moment, a gust of wind suddenly swept up around him. The gust of wind had no sound and no source, appearing from nowhere. The force of the wind was peculiar. It did not disturb the grass and the trees, instead simply causing the large boulders on the ground to all float up.

Unbeknownst to the others, Mo Wen’s silhouette had already melted into the wind, completely disappearing from his original position. In the blink of an eye, he had already overtaken Tan Qiyue and was directly chasing Nangong Mingzhu, who had been the first to fly out.

The three Glory techniques that Mo Wen had learned were divided into five stages. The first stage was further divided into four realms.

Mo Wen was not an immortal cultivator, so he could only practice the first stage of the three Glory techniques. After the incident with the mysterious galaxy and receiving the Primordial Soul Separation Technique, Mo Wen had already completed practicing the first realm of the first stage of the Glory of Wind.

The first realm was called Rising Wind. He could generate wind from nothing, summoning the power of wind from between the heavens and earth.

Right now, when Mo Wen unleashed the Glory of Wind again, it was already completely different from before. If it was just based on speed, it was almost faster than before by twofold.

Mo Wen’s original speed had already far surpassed ancient martial art practitioners of the same realm. The twofold increase of the Glory of Wind was terrifying.

Tan Qiyue saw Mo Wen pass by him in the blink of an eye. A look of astonishment flashed in his eyes as he looked at Mo Wen’s disappearing silhouette. Tan Qiyue was speechless for a while. Mo Wen’s speed was practically out of this world. Tan Qiyue did not possess such speed, even when his cultivation was not restricted.

“What kind of little monster is he?” Tan Qiyue mumbled to himself, stunned.

The white-robed woman at the very front was also surprised. In a few blinks, Mo Wen had already overtaken her. This youth had such terrifying speed. How did he do it?
