Earthly Deity Chapter 114

Zhen Shaoke hurriedly said, ”Other than this, I have an unkind request. I wonder if Master Mo Dan has heard of the Five Elements Desolate Domain’s Dan Competition? I hold Master Mo Dan’s alchemy level in the highest esteem and would like to ask Master Mo Dan to represent my Nine Moons Dan Pavilion to participate in the Five Elements Desolate Region’s Dan Competition.”

A strong sense of happiness rushed to Mo Wuji’s heart, what was the difference between this and having an extra pillow when one was dozing off? After losing the opportunity to travel to the Five Elemental Desolate Domain with the Traceless Sword Sect, he was still prepared to think of all the ways to go to the Five Elemental Desolate Domain first before saying anything. He didn’t expect that in the Border City the darkness would come to light and someone would take the initiative to invite him to the Five Elements Desolate Domain to participate in the Dan Competition.

Mo Wuji quickly calmed down and cupped his fists to Zhen Shaoke, “I do want to participate in the Five Elements Desolate Domain’s Dan Competition. It’s just that I once served as a guest Dan Master in the Traceless Sword Sect for a period of time, and not long ago, I offended the Second Elder of the Traceless Sword Sect. It is precisely because the Second Elder is after me that I tried to find a way to leave from the Border City. If Shao Zhen can help me block the Second Elder, I am willing to participate in the Dan Competition for the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion. If you can’t help me block the Second Elder, then I must leave Border City now.”

Mo Wuji didn’t talk nonsense and bluntly stated the danger he had met. He didn’t want to tell Zhen Shaoke when it came down to it, and at that time, if Zhen Shaoke didn’t respond in time, he would be doing harm to himself instead.

Zhen Shaoke didn’t care much and still smiled as he said to Mo Wuji, “I can guess, Wuji you brought several people with you, they should be your family members and stewards. If you haven’t offended anyone, you wouldn’t be in such a hurry to come to Border City with your whole family.”

Mo Wuji secretly marvelled in his heart at Zhen Shaoke’s meticulous observation, looking at the people he brought with him. Moreover, in the middle of speaking, he unconsciously changed his address, bringing the relationship between the two closer.

“Wuji you are able to tell me all of this, it shows honesty. Although my Nine Moons Dan Pavilion isn’t a top-tier power, I’m not afraid of the elders of an ordinary Earth-level sect.” Zhen Shaoke said in a calm tone, there were no grandiose words, it was this kind of bland and unperturbed tone that made people feel even more that he didn’t put the Second Elder of the Traceless Sword Sect in his heart at all.

In fact, he didn’t even ask Mo Wuji what it was that had offended the Second Elder.

“Good, since that’s the case, then I will be the guest Dan Master of the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion from today until the end of the Five Elements Desolate Domain Dan Competition.” When Mo Wuji saw that Zhen Shaoke was so bold, he immediately stood up without any hesitation and said.

“Young Pavilion Master, Elder Xu of the Traceless Sword Sect seeks an audience.” Right at this moment, a Dan Pavilion fellow walked up to the door and reported in a low voice.

Mo Wuji was secretly shocked in his heart, this surname Xu came so quickly. He had just arrived at Border City and hadn’t even had time to leave the place before this guy came. No wonder this guy wasn’t afraid of him escaping, dare I say that he already knew that he couldn’t escape. If it wasn’t for the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion’s Young Pavilion Master suddenly intervening? Mo Wuji shivered, not even daring to think about it further.

It was true that placing one’s small life on others was all unreliable. He had done two things wrong, the first being that he had pinned his little life on Yin Shanyin. The second was that he had underestimated Elder Xu’s speed, he had just arrived at the Border City on the front foot and this Elder Xu had arrived on the back foot.

In truth he should have travelled far away immediately after the incident with Meng Boyu. But then, there would be no way for him to become a cultivator at the seventh level of Pulse Expansion in a short period of time, nor would there be any way for him to become a Third Grade Human Pill Master. Between gains and losses, it was indeed difficult to calculate.

The only thing that was fundamental was to not only increase one’s strength.

Zhen Shaoke stood up and said to Mo Wuji with a smile, “Will Wuji go out with me?”

Mo Wuji nodded his head, this matter was originally his, if Zhen Shaoke helped, how could he not go out? The reason why Zhen Shaoke helped was also because he saw his alchemy level and was prepared to borrow it, it wasn’t because he had a good relationship with him.

……

“It’s been a long time, Young Pavilion Master’s elegance is even better than before.” As soon as Mo Wuji and Zhen Shaoke arrived at the ground floor of the Shop Pavilion, the long bearded and grey robed Xu Feibo smiled and cupped his fists at Zhen Shaoke. As for Mo Wuji behind Zhen Shaoke, that was directly ignored by him.

Mo Wuji naturally ignored the Second Elder as well, there was no need for him to accompany the smiling face when this guy was about to kill him. He instead smiled at Qin Chen who was standing behind the Second Elder, only that Qin Chen’s face was ice-cold, and he didn’t have the slightest intention of responding to him.

Mo Wuji didn’t care either, back then, although it was Qin Xiangyu who helped him enter the Traceless Sword Sect, it was in fact still Qin Chen’s face. Now that Qin Dust had been following the Second Elder, it was obvious that his status was not low. Qin Xiangyu had her younger brother Qin Chen to cover her, and there was no need for him to ask for favours.

Zhen Shaoke laughed and also clasped his fists, “So it’s Elder Xu, Elder Xu’s Dao is improving by the day and is truly a role model for my generation.”

The Second Elder’s gaze landed on Mo Wuji, and the smile on his face tightened, “Dan Master Mo, please also come back to the sect with me now.”

Mo Wuji sneered, “Who are you, I’m going to go with you?”

The second elder’s face turned blue, “Mo Wuji, could it be that you don’t recognise that you are the guest Dan Master of the Traceless Sword Sect?”

Mo Wuji laughed, “You also know that I’m a guest Dan Master ah? Don’t you understand the meaning of guest Dan Master? That means that you can leave whenever you want, without any constraints. Therefore, I’m not a guest Dan Master of the Traceless Sword Sect anymore. Also, Old Man Xu, I have to tell you one thing clearly. Even if I’m still the guest Dan Master of the Traceless Sword Sect now, it’s not something you’re qualified to order around.”

Xu Fei Bo was so furious that he almost made a direct move, but he knew very well that what Mo Wuji said was not wrong at all. Firstly Mo Wuji was a guest Dan Master, he was not qualified to order Mo Wuji to do anything. What did it mean to be a guest, a guest was an existence that had to be treated with courtesy. Secondly because Mo Wuji was a guest Dan Master, he had the power to leave at any time.

“Young Pavilion Master, Mo Wuji has committed an offence in my Traceless Sword Sect, please allow me to take him away, Mister Xu is very grateful.” Xu Fei Bo was the Second Elder of the Traceless Sword Sect yes, but he didn’t dare to just grab someone away from the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion.

Zhen Shaoke said indifferently, “I also want to let Elder Xu know that Dan Master Mo is already a guest Dan Master of my Nine Moons Dan Pavilion.”

Xu Feibo’s face sank, Zhen Shaoke didn’t say that he wouldn’t be allowed to take Mo Wuji away, but the person’s words made it clear that he would never have the chance to take Mo Wuji away again. He, Xu Feibo, was only a Second Elder of the Traceless Sword Sect, what right did he have to take away the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion’s guest Dan Master. If he really dared to forcefully take Mo Wuji away, then I reckon he will not be able to walk out of the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion today.”

Don’t look at the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion’s reputation in the Border City, this was a real top tier earth level power, with its status still above the Traceless Sword Sect.

“In that case, Mister Xu takes his leave.” Xu Fei Bo snorted coldly, clasped his fists, turned around and said he would leave.

Only when Xu Feibo was far away did Zhen Shaoke say to Mo Wuji in a grave manner, “Wuji, Xu Feibo is already at the seventh level of the True Lake realm, you’ve offended him, so be careful in the future.”

“Many thanks to Shao Zhen for coming to his aid.” Mo Wuji cupped his fists and thanked him, he knew that the True Lake Realm. The first Heaven of the Earth Realm Triple Heavens was Yuandan, the ninth level of Yuandan. The second heavy heaven was True Lake, and True Lake was also nine layers. The third heavy heaven was Void God, which was also nine layers.

Xu Feibo’s True Lake seventh layer, that was the late stage of the second heaven of the Earth Realm. With his Pulse Expansion seventh layer realm facing the late stage of True Lake, it wasn’t much different from an ant.

Zhen Shaoke gave a sunny smile, ”It’s fine, my Nine Moons Dan Pavilion’s Dan Master has already travelled to the Five Elements Wasteland Dan Competition place, if I can’t see Dan Master Mo for a few more days, I’m also ready to leave Border City. Now it means that I was more lucky and was able to meet Dan Master Mo before I left.”

Mo Wuji was secretly afraid in his heart, it wasn’t that Zhen Shaoke was lucky. Zhen Shaoke had obviously stayed here to wait for him, and it was good that he came to Border City in time.

It was a good thing that when he was in dire need of spirit stones, he hurriedly exchanged the pills for spirit stones and didn’t count on it being a lot cheaper, he didn’t expect to be able to gain the favour of the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion’s Young Master. It really should be the saying that the blessing of a blessing is not a blessing?

“Young Zhen, I wonder how long it will take us to reach the Five Elements Desolate Domain?” Mo Wuji suddenly thought of something and asked suddenly.

“About half a month.” Zhen Shaoke replied.

“Can there be a dan furnace on board?” Mo Wuji reckoned that it should be a flying beast carriage, otherwise it wouldn’t be so fast.

“The dan furnace is naturally there, this time we are going to participate in the Five Elements Wasteland Dan Fighting Competition, how could we leave out the dan furnace? Not only do we have a post-dan furnace, but we also have a dan fire that is no less than a normal earth fire.”

Mo Wuji cupped his fists to Zhen Shaoke and said, “Zhen Shaoke, I have an ungrateful request, I would like to borrow some fourth grade spirit herbs from you.”

Zhen Shaoke understood Mo Wuji’s meaning as soon as his words were uttered and immediately asked, “Wuji, could it be that you want to try and impact a 4th Grade Earthly Dan Master?”

Mo Wuji didn’t hide it, “Yes, I have a formula for a Fourth Grade Spirit Pill, plus it’s been a long time since I advanced to Third Grade Human Pill Master, so I want to give it a try. In case I can become a Fourth Grade Earthly Dan Master, that would be a good thing for both me and the Nine Moons Dan Pavilion.”

In fact, it had only been less than a month since Mo Wuji became a Third Grade Dan Master. The reason why he had the backbone to want to impact the Fourth Grade Earthly Dan Master was because of the Dan Skill.

After refining the Strong God Pill, the divine idea power that he had cultivated had no problem casting the Dan Skill. If there was a fourth grade spirit herb for him to test, maybe he could really be able to refine a fourth grade Earth Spirit Pill with the help of the Dan Skill. If there was no divine idea power, Mo Wuji definitely wouldn’t have made such an attempt.

Zhen Shaoke laughed after a slight pause, ”Wuji is asking the right person, I don’t have anything else but a lot of spirit grasses. Not to mention fourth grade spirit grasses, even fifth grade spirit grasses, I can get a few for you. Wuji, feel free to try your hand, it doesn’t matter if you succeed or fail.”

Hearing Zhen Shaoke’s words, Mo Wuji instantly put his heart down. Although Zhen Shaoke stuttered slightly as he spoke, he did not refuse.
