Earthly Deity Chapter 142

These words woke up all the people, and Mo Wuji heard it just as well. Mo Wuji was secretly anxious in his heart, once someone took out the bright light stone and dropped it, it was clear to see that this place was only a hundred or so metres. A hundred or so metres high, there were still some places to step on in the hollow, and it wasn’t a danger to anyone here.

Mo Wuji’s feet stepped a few times on that light fixture-like place and soon landed on the ground. The ground was very hard, I don’t know what kind of material it was built from, Mo Wuji landed heavily on the ground and there was no sound.

The air inside the grand hall was not very circulating, the smell was a little musty and stuffy. Mo Wuji surveyed his surroundings in the shortest time possible, there were more than twenty passages around, which led to nowhere at all. In the middle of the hall, there was also a stone tripod. There was a corpse hanging on the edge of the stone cauldron, and the first thing Mo Wuji’s divine thoughts saw was a one copper key cupped in the corpse’s hand, the copper key was more than a foot long.

Mo Wuji rushed over at the first opportunity and collected this key and sent it into his storage bag, or maybe it was because his speed was too fast, the clothes on the corpse were swept away by some of the winds that he brought up.

Mo Wuji left the corpse’s location once again as fast as he could, and this time, several bright light stones fell down, illuminating the underside of this grand hall as if it was daytime.

“Friends, it’s safe down here, all can come down now.” Mo Wuji raised his head and shouted.

In fact after the bright light stones came into play, there was no need for Mo Wuji to call out at all, all of them knew that it was safe down here.

One by one, more than forty figures landed down, and soon all of them stood in the middle of this mouldy and stuffy hall.

No one had the time to care about Mo Wuji at this time, all of them stared their eyes as if they were bronze bells as they searched this grand hall, wanting to find some clues from it.

The corpse by that stone cauldron was also discovered at the first time, the bearded man had the highest cultivation, and he was also the fastest one to land next to the corpse.

The people who came down at this moment all found that there were only twenty or so passages inside this great hall, apart from some simple stone wall paintings. The most likely treasure would be the corpse next to the stone tripod. So when the bearded man landed next to the corpse, all of them quickly came over to surround the bearded man in the middle.

The breeze brought up by the dozens of people coming over caused the corpse to let out a clatter and then collapsed to the ground. It was the bones of the corpse that also turned into dust.

“Plop” a barely audible sound was particularly noticeable in this silent hall, this slight sound attracted everyone’s attention as a ring with mottled marks fell to the ground and rolled out.

This ring rolled right to the side of a yellow-clothed cultivator, who grabbed the ring at the first opportunity.

A storage ring?

All gazes were focused on this yellow-clothed cultivator, how precious a storage ring was was clear to everyone.

Not to mention a storage ring, even a storage bag was not something that anyone could possess. Of the forty or so people here, no more than half could possess a storage bag. One must know that those who were able to come to the Five Elements Desolate Domain, which one of them was not the elite of the sect? Even if they were, not all of them could possess a storage bag.

From this, it could be seen how precious a storage ring that had more space than a storage bag, was more convenient to carry, and had a defence effect that was several times better.

“Call out the ring.” The bearded man stared at this yellow-clothed cultivator and said in an unkind tone.

This yellow-clothed cultivator was a bit scared, but he was really unwilling to give up this storage ring that already belonged to him. In his opinion, this was his chance ah.

“On what grounds? This ring was obtained by me, and you’re going to take it for no reason ……” This yellow-clothed cultivator clenched his teeth and still said with a slight trembling voice.

Perhaps he also knew in his heart that the storage ring could not be kept at all, and now he was just thinking of claiming some benefits.

Mo Wuji secretly shook his head, if it was him, he would not hesitate to throw the storage ring out. Even if he wanted to claim benefits, he wouldn’t talk like this, at most, he would say, I don’t want the storage ring, you take something in exchange.

The bearded man let out a fierce laugh, the fine scale cone in his hand rolled up countless phosphorescent lights, and a violent Yuan Qi swept out, even Mo Wuji, who was standing at the furthest distance, felt his breath stifled. An aura of death suppressed over, making it difficult for him to breathe.

The cultivators who had originally surrounded the bearded man had stepped aside, and that yellow-clothed man didn’t expect the bearded man to immediately make a move without saying a word. At this moment, he couldn’t even move aside a little bit.

“Poof!” Blood splattered everywhere as this yellow-clothed man was directly blasted to death by the bearded man with a cone.

The bearded man walked over, picked up the storage ring that had fallen to the ground and wore it in his own hand as his gaze looked around.

No one dared to speak, he was the only one in this Yuan Dan Realm. That yellow-shirted man’s cultivation was estimated to have stepped into the early stage of Transcendental Mortality, and he didn’t even have any room to resist in the face of the bearded man. The crowd that originally surrounded the bearded man also unconsciously flashed away to the side, after seeing the bearded man’s power, no one wanted to seek death.

Mo Wuji felt the killing intent in the bearded man’s eyes, and his heart sank. This bearded man was so powerful, if he had set his heart on decimating all the people here, it would not be impossible.

Having to go, Mo Wuji was about to excuse himself to enter a passageway first when he heard Hou Yuxian chuckle and say, “Since there are no more treasures here, I’ll choose a passageway to go first. Senior Sister Wan’er, Brother Mo, let’s go together.”

As he spoke, Hou Yuxian had quickly entered a passageway, with Qu Wan’er following closely behind.

Mo Wuji didn’t follow Hou Yuxian as he chose the closest passageway to him and quickly dashed into it.

The rest of the cultivators also reacted and chose passages to leave this grand hall.

The ferocious look in the bearded man’s eyes finally dispersed, the moment he killed the man in yellow, he did want to kill all the people here. However, he also had worries, there were at least several half-step Yuan Dan existences here, with more than forty people joining forces to surround him alone, whether he could kill them all or not was one thing. Once he couldn’t kill them all, it would be hard for him to go out.

Hou Yuxian directly left before he had made up his mind, causing him to give up on making a move. With so many passages, who knew where they all led to? It was absolutely impossible for him to kill all of them.

Mo Wuji rushed into the passageway as fast as he could, and after rushing for several minutes, Mo Wuji almost thought that he was hallucinating. It was clearly underneath an iceberg, and he was feeling an extreme scorching heat. And as he went further, the hotter his body became.

After a few more minutes, Mo Wuji stopped, and in front of him was actually just a very large stone chamber. In the middle of the stone chamber he saw a faceplate sized ground fire opening, the ground fire was constantly spewing out flames, if the flames were coupled with some magma, Mo Wuji would have thought that he had arrived at the crater of a volcano.

The rich aura made Mo Wuji want to sit down and cultivate immediately, what made Mo Wuji even more excited was that he saw a fist sized red crystal in this flame mouth. This red crystal was suspended right above the mouth of the earth’s fire, as if it was being held up by air currents.

On the surrounding ground, Mo Wuji also saw many fire crystals. Any one of these fire crystal stones was too much higher in purity than the ones he had once obtained.

Mo Wuji took a single step and crossed over, the Tian Ji Stick in his hand directly slapped over, after the Tian Ji Stick slapped away the red crystals above that flame mouth, Mo Wuji lifted his hand and put the fist sized red crystals into his storage bag.

After doing this, Mo Wuji didn’t go to pick up those fire crystal stones at the first opportunity, his divine thoughts saw two people rapidly approaching.

“Hehe, so many fire crystal stones, or high purity ones.” One of them immediately shouted in surprise.

The other man landed his gaze on Mo Wuji, who was standing to the side and seemed to have just arrived here. Looking at the distribution of the fire crystal stones on the ground, it was estimated that Mo Wuji had not yet had the time to do so.

“There’s no more business for you here, leave.” The man at the back stared at Mo Wuji and said in a cold tone.

Mo Wuji smiled, “Be my guest, I came in to scout the way for you two, now that there’s nothing here, I’ll be leaving, see you soon.”

It had to be goodbye, even though Mo Wuji knew that the most precious thing had been taken away from him, these two guys were so arrogant to tell him to leave, not even giving him a bit of soup, how could he not be angry. He would get his revenge when they met again in the future. Right now, if his cultivation level wanted to deal with these two guys, he was obviously hitting a stone with an egg.

“This person is somewhat sensible.” Seeing Mo Wuji leave, the previous cultivator said with a hefty smile.

The one who let Mo Wuji go hummed disdainfully, “A follower is just a follower, if he wasn’t sensible, I would have slapped him to death a long time ago. Seeing as he’s doing the hard labour for free and risking his life to scout the path, give him a chance to live.”

Mo Wuji had already quickly left this passageway, and when he returned to the grand hall once again, it had long been empty.

Mo Wuji looked around and quickly switched to a different passageway to enter, he knew that most of these passages were occupied. Therefore, he didn’t go to the bottom, but instead, when he was about to go to the bottom, he used his divine thoughts to observe. Once someone was there, he immediately retreated. With his kind of strength, even if he found something good, it wouldn’t be his turn to grab it.

Other than finding a crystal clear red crystal in the first passage, in the second passage, he saw two cultivators fighting, seemingly over something. In the third passage, Mo Wuji saw a huge pool of water with three cultivators staring at the edge of the pool.

In the fourth passage, Mo Wuji saw a huge round log with only one person watching at the edge of the log.

In the fifth passage, Mo Wuji saw the guy with a full beard, other than this guy, there were two corpses.

Mo Wuji didn’t go in the first few passages, and he didn’t even want to mess with this bearded guy.

Mo Wuji hurriedly retreated back into the sixth passage again, this passage he finally didn’t find anyone else. This was because this passageway was blocked by a huge stone door, and from the situation around this stone door, it looked like someone had attacked here. It should be because they felt that the attack didn’t have any effect on the stone door, and that’s why they retreated.

Mo Wuji’s gaze landed on top of the stone door and he immediately became excited, he saw a very large keyhole on the stone door and he happened to have a foot long copper key in his hand.
