Qu Wan Er’s words stopped at once, she looked at the rest of the people around her, no one felt strange, it was obvious that this was not the first time this kind of thing had happened.
The few cultivators who weren’t blown away by the gale at the moment also hurriedly slid down. They weren’t even a few tenths of the icy peak, and if they continued to climb up, the higher they got, the more dangerous it would become.
“No one can be sure if there is a True God’s Flower up there, and if there isn’t, climbing up like this wouldn’t be a waste of effort.” A female cultivator said as she looked at the ice peak that was so high that she couldn’t see the top.
No one answered her words, whether there was a True God’s Flower or not, as long as one had a number in their heart. Those who didn’t believe in it could leave, one less competition if they left.
Hou Yuxian suddenly stood out and said, “Friends, I think that fighting alone like this, even if someone here can climb to the top of the peak, it will be hard to come down.”
“What are you considered?” A man with a full beard coldly swept a glance at Hou Yuxian. He was already at the Yuan Dan realm, and looking at Hou Yuxian who clearly had not reached the Yuan Dan realm, he also dared to speak wildly here.
Hou Yuxian still wore a smile on his face, half enraged, “I’m not a thing, Heavenly Demon Sect Hou Yuxian is.”
Hearing that Hou Yuxian was from the Heavenly Demon Sect, this bearded man did not dare to continue targeting Hou Yuxian. The Heavenly Demon Sect was one of the three day sects Heavenly Sword Island, Heavenly Sound Palace, and Heavenly Demon Sect, don’t look at the Heavenly Demon Sect ranked last, this sect was extremely bizarre. If you are not careful, you will be put to death, and you will still not understand what is happening.
“I wonder what good idea Brother Hou has?” Another person stood out and clasped his fist at Hou Yuxian.
“Don’t dare.” Hou Yuxian returned the cupped fist with excellent poise, then said, “The cold wind whistles all year round above this Ice Peak, and the higher up the mountain the stronger the cold wind becomes. What I mean is that we all work together to dig the ice step path. Only then can we go up together in the most energy efficient and safest way.”
“Wouldn’t that be cheaper for the later ones?” The bearded man said with a frown.
Hou Yuxian smiled faintly and did not answer this bearded big man’s words. This bearded big man grunted, and even though his cultivation was higher than Hou Yuxian’s, he didn’t dare to have a fit here.
A slim cultivator took the initiative to say, ”With the raging cold winds on this icy peak, it won’t take more than a moment or three for the road behind us to be smoothed out by the raging cold winds. But with so many of us going up there, there can’t be so many True God’s Flowers up there, how to distribute them then is a problem.”
The bearded big man glared, “How to distribute it? Whoever has the ability to grab it, and whoever doesn’t f*ck off.”
Some cultivators who had just stepped into the Spirit Building Realm consciously retreated away, for their kind of cultivation to participate in digging up the ladder would be doing favours for others.
Seeing that Mo Wuji had no intention of retreating, Qu Wan’er frowned slightly and finally had to take the initiative to say, “Dan Master Mo, why don’t you stay here first?”
Mo Wuji smiled faintly, “No need, I’ll also join in digging the steps, it’s always good to contribute more.”
“Pfft!” A woman really couldn’t help but laugh out loud when she heard Mo Wuji’s words. Mo Wuji’s body was bland with no spiritual chimes flashing around him. As a cultivator, anyone could guess that Mo Wuji’s qualifications were low and his cultivation was average.
The higher the qualification, the greater the spirituality, as a cultivator, one would be extremely sensitive to spirituality that is.
“Little brother, you shouldn’t be at the Spirit Building Realm yet, right? I’m afraid that if you follow up, you’ll really only be able to contribute to digging the ice steps. You might as well keep it here, there won’t be many True God’s Flowers even if there are any.” The woman who had snorted out a laugh added another sentence.
While this woman was average looking and spoke with some flirtation, Mo Wuji knew that she didn’t have much of a bad heart. It should be knowing that with a cultivation level such as his, it would be fine to follow and do the drudgery to go up, and in the end, he might not even be able to climb to the peak.
Mo Wuji smiled, “Thanks to this sister’s warm heart, I’ve always loved helping people since I was a kid, I’m not even afraid of helping a fallen old man, how can I be afraid of digging up the ice steps in the district? It would be an honour for me to contribute for you senior brothers and sisters.”
The few cultivators who heard Mo Wuji’s words looked at each other in disbelief, even Hou Yuxian didn’t know what Mo Wuji meant by this. However, everyone finally understood Mo Wuji’s last sentence, which was that even though Mo Wuji’s cultivation level was low, he was willing to risk his life to contribute to digging the ice steps.
The man with a full beard did heave a smile and said to Mo Wuji, “Kid, promising.”
After saying that, he had glared at Hou Yuxian and said, “Right now, there are more than 60 people who are willing to go up together, how do you see it divided, let’s do it now.”
The rest of the people also looked towards Hou Yuxian, obviously all hoping that Hou Yuxian would take the lead and say the way to dig the ice steps.
Hou Yuxian clasped his fists and said, “Originally, I was suggesting to split into two groups, but now that there are only sixty-three people, I suggest that we all do it together, digging out an ‘S’ shaped ice step path out to go up in turn. This ice peak is very hard, and it will be difficult to dig it alone. If we do it together, it will be more than ten times easier.”
“Good, that’s it.” The bearded man clapped his hands and was the first to offer up his own magic treasure, a very delicate fine scale cone.
The rest of them had no objections and took out their own magic treasures. Mo Wuji only had one Tian Ji Stick, and he could only take out his own.
“Your magic treasure is a stick?” Qu Wan’er was all a little speechless, it wasn’t like there were no people in the cultivation world who used iron rods as magic treasures, it was a rare breed. If Mo Wuji’s cultivation level was like this, and he also dared to use an iron stick as a magic treasure, that would be the first of its kind.
“Good, personality, haha.” The bearded man laughed and stood first.
Hou Yuxian was also a little stunned, in his thoughts, Mo Wuji’s magic treasure was most likely related to the thunder system, he didn’t realise that in the end, Mo Wuji took out an iron rod.
He quickly recovered and said loudly, “Now everyone start together.”
Yuan power was added together, and just once, a shallow step was broken through the hard ice peak.
The crowd was overjoyed, this ice peak really needed everyone to work together. This was definitely not the effect of one plus one, but far greater than one plus one.
Mo Wuji was assigned to the very edge because he had the lowest cultivation level, this was the most dangerous place, yet he didn’t have any way to refuse. After knowing that there might be an infinite amount of Soul Severing Crystals here, Mo Wuji was adamant that he wanted to climb up.
Luckily, Mo Wuji’s Tian Ji Stick was still quite powerful, so no one refused him to participate. After all, to the rest of the people here, Mo Wuji, who was only at the Pulse Expansion Realm, would not be able to compete for the True God’s Flower at all, and was tantamount to a free labourer.
The roaring sound travelled all the way upwards, ice slag splashed everywhere, and the crowd moved slowly towards the top of the mountain peak. Behind the crowd was a twisted ice road, which travelled in an ‘S’ shape on the ice peak, winding upwards.
In just one day’s time, the group of people had climbed to the halfway point of the ice peak. The ‘S’ shaped ice road behind them was also gradually blurring.
“My friend, I think all the people here have underestimated you, I am Sung Wai Yu, from the Golden Gun Sect.” The one closest to Mo Wuji was a medium sized youth, and the higher up he went, the more astonished he became. This was because the ice step pavement that Mo Wuji had opened up was not less than the area that he had opened up, it was even a little more. What made him even more puzzled was that every time Mo Wuji opened up an ice road, he would first blast a slightly deeper hole in the ice with an iron rod, which would waste even more Yuan Power. This made him realise that Mo Wuji’s strength wasn’t just as simple as expanding his veins.
“Mo Wuji, casual cultivator. Brother Sheng’s name, it’s quite personalised.” Mo Wuji also smiled faintly, all the way over here in the open, he could tell that this Sheng Abandoned Yu’s strength should be around the fourth level of Spirit Building. However, the endurance didn’t seem to be much stronger than him, he hadn’t swallowed any pills along the way and still had strength left, this Sheng Abandoned Jade seemed to be a little tired.
Sheng Abandoned Jade smiled to himself, ”I changed my name myself, my original name was Sheng Qi Yu. The Sheng family produced a genius cultivator, Sheng Heshen, so they wanted us to give up the vast majority of our cultivation resources all to pile up that Sheng Heshen. Unwilling to do so, I left the Sheng family and ended up luckily entering the Golden Gun Sect.”
Mo Wuji had some doubts in his heart, where did this Sheng Abandoned Jade’s quota to enter the Five Elements Desolate Domain come from? However, this kind of thing he wouldn’t ask is.
“Brother Mo, a casual cultivator, can walk here ……” Sheng Abandoned Jade hadn’t even finished a sentence when an icy cold gale swept in.
This wild wind came over abruptly without any precursor.
Originally, the people here had been opening up on the icy peak for a day and hadn’t encountered any gale attacks, and they all felt that perhaps their previous thoughts had been too conservative. Unexpectedly, just when everyone had just relaxed their guard a bit, this raging cold wind came over suddenly.
More than ten silhouettes were swept by the gale and directly disappeared from this ‘S’ shaped ice road. Being swept away from this kind of place, the possibility of surviving was basically gone.
Mo Wuji and Sheng Abandoned Yu were similarly swept by this violent cold wind, Mo Wuji’s reaction was extremely swift, he almost pounced on the ice steps just as the gale arrived, while drawing out his sharp knife and inserting it into that ice hole. The entire movement was in a smooth flow, without wasting half a breath of time, and it was obvious that he didn’t know how many times he had secretly thought about it.
After doing this, Mo Wuji still had time to reach back and grab.
Sheng Waiyu, who had already been swept out of the ice steps by the cold wind, was lucky, as one of his feet was caught in Mo Wuji’s hand, and his entire body also fell on top of the ice steps.
Once a person fell down, the force of being swept by the gale would be much smaller. Sheng Abandoned Yu hurriedly grabbed the groove on the ice steps behind him and did not dare to let go for half a second.
The howling icy cold wind came and went quickly. When the wind disappeared, the crowd realised that there were less than a dozen cultivators on the ice steps, and many positions were empty.
“Big brother Mo, thank you.” Even though Sheng Abandoned Jade’s cultivation level was higher than Mo Wuji’s, at this moment, he bowed in excitement and thanked Mo Wuji, mouthing the name Big Brother.
Mo Wuji had just saved his life, and his gratitude was from the bottom of his heart. One must know that in that situation just now, even if it was too late to reach out, if it was anyone else then they would definitely not have reached out. Reaching out to save someone in that situation would be tantamount to putting himself in a more dangerous situation.
Mo Wuji patted Sheng Abandoned Jade’s shoulder and said with a hefty smile, “Don’t mind it, I told you before, I’m most happy to help people. See if I’m not here digging ice steps for everyone?”
