Earthly Deity Chapter 172

Mo Wuji’s face sank, asking for his storage bag, wasn’t this a robbery? His hand was already falling on the storage bag. When he was at the early stage of the 10th level of Pulse Expansion, he had taken out two guys from the Spirit Building Realm. Now that he was at the twelfth level of Pulse Expansion, these three guys were not much stronger than those two Spirit Building cultivators.

“Second brother, don’t be so reckless. To sell someone else’s storage bag, people will think we’re going to rob them.” Another man walked over and said, this man was slightly taller and had a visible mark on his face.

After saying that, this man cupped his fists at Mo Wuji and said, “Friend, we are in urgent need of storage bags because we found some ores for refining weapons. It’s not that we want to rob our friend, but don’t worry, we will pay a high price for this storage bag of yours.”

Hearing this man’s words, Mo Wuji knew that these few people must have found a good place. There were definitely treasures present there, and these few people should have filled up the storage bags on their bodies, and they didn’t want to part with the things there, so that’s why they wanted his storage bag to prepare for another trip.

Mo Wuji said indifferently, “My storage bag is also filled up.”

“That’s fine, you can take the things out, we just need the storage bag.” The slightly taller man still said with a smile.

Mo Wuji’s tone was even colder, “Since you need the storage bag to hold your things, could it be that I sold the storage bag to you and I’m holding my own things in my hands?”

“You can just carry a parcel.” The man who first wanted Mo Wuji to leave his storage bag blurted out.

Mo Wuji didn’t even bother to reply this time, as he raised his hand and the Tian Ji Stick had appeared in his palm. Isn’t it just a robbery, come on then. He just happened to try and see where his strength was after the 12th layer of Pulse Expansion.

Seeing Mo Wuji taking out his weapon recklessly, these two instead frowned somewhat not daring to act rashly.

It was like a dog biting a person, if the person turns around and flees, the more the dog bites, the more ferocious it becomes, and it follows after them. If you meet the dog bite, you do not move, but instead of posing for action, the dog will be afraid, but back.

Seeing that the two seemed to be subdued by himself, Mo Wuji suddenly said, “A few of you should find this place occasionally, right? Before I arrived here, I knew that there was a lake here. If the two of you are willing to stop, I can hand over the map.”

After saying these words, Mo Wuji didn’t even wait for the other party to respond before he directly threw the packet of maps to the slightly taller man.

The man subconsciously sidestepped his figure for a bit to make sure that there was no problem with what Mo Wuji had thrown on the ground before picking it up and opening it to look at it.

He then let out an ah of surprise and made a wink to the other two. The other man and woman also hurriedly walked over to the man’s side and lowered their heads to check the map and the book that distributed the treasures of the Lost Heavenly Ruins.

Mo Wuji took the opportunity to turn around and left, and was soon far away.

“Big brother, should we chase after him and finish him off?” Seeing Mo Wuji walk away, the slightly thin man who first asked for Mo Wuji’s map hurriedly asked.

The taller man looked at the direction Mo Wuji disappeared and said with a hefty smile, “No need, this map of his is way more valuable than that storage bag. You see, the places we found are also on this thin book. We’re rich, this is simply a treasure trove.”

“Then won’t it be even more secretive if we go and exterminate him?” The female cultivator who hadn’t said anything asked suspiciously.

“Otherwise.” The slightly taller male cultivator shook his head, “Don’t look at this person’s lack of spiritual charm around his body, but daring to enter the Lost Heavenly Ruins alone is probably not a simple commodity. Looking at the speed at which he offered up his magic weapon in front of the three of us, we know that he is not ordinary. I suspect that he has hidden his spiritual cultivation through the means of spirit hiding, if my guess is correct, the three of us may not be able to leave him behind. We are carrying heavy treasures, there is no need to take risks. Since that’s the case, why don’t we go and look for the treasure first? In case he dares to go as well, it would save us the trouble of chasing after them.”

The other man and woman also nodded in agreement, this was right, if Mo Wuji was really weak, would he dare to break into the Lost Heavenly Ruins single-handedly? Almost none of those who were able to conceal their Spirit Rhythm cultivation through Spirit Stealing means were simple.

……

Mo Wuji was also slightly relieved when he saw that the three people behind him did not come after him. Even though the three people were chasing after him, he was not afraid. However, if he could not fight these three people, naturally, he should not fight. After all, he hadn’t built his spirit yet, and the twelfth level of Pulse Expansion was also the Pulse Expansion Realm.

What made him more satisfied was sending the hot potato away, originally he was planning to throw it into the mouth of the sand crocodile, these three people appeared and saved him from going to the sand crocodile.

Qi honestly that three piece set is definitely not something good, since these three people want to hit his idea, then leave it to the honest people to teach him a lesson, he just need to go to look for Tianluo flower.

As for whether or not these three would go to find Tian Luo Hua, Mo Wuji was very relieved. Because that chance was pathetically small, compared to the rest of the treasures, the Heavenly Locus Flower was really nothing. Not everyone wanted to be like him and go to open up the hundredth spirit complex.

Mo Wuji, who had no worries, once again turned a direction, this time, he was really heading towards the location where the Heavenly Lox Flower appeared.

Qi Laoshi couldn’t be more dishonest, the locations of the various treasures recorded in that thin book should still be considered accurate.

After several more days had passed, Mo Wuji stopped before a piece of dilapidated barren weeds. This place was filled with broken walls, broken stone monuments and broken walls that had gone through an unknown number of years were mostly buried up in dust. All sorts of weeds grew amongst them, just like the scene of an ancient battlefield that had experienced a tragic battle, and after it had been mottled by countless years of age.

Occasional soughing sounds came from the weeds, Mo Wuji’s divine thought penetrated in, and there were only a few skeletons between the grass and the rubble. Other than that, there was nothing. That soughing sound should be some wind blowing through.

At this moment, the sky had already darkened, and Mo Wuji looked further away. This area seemed to be entirely filled with such dilapidated ancient buildings and barren weeds, the only way for him to pass through this area was to walk over the weeds and barren dilapidated buildings, it wasn’t even feasible to make a detour.

In the past, the only way to pass through was to find the Heavenly Loop Flower to advance to the Spirit Building Realm as soon as possible. Mo Wuji weighed the gains and losses, and still decided to cross over this overgrown and barren broken walled area in the night, he was really too eager for strength.

No, Mo Wuji felt something wrong the moment he was about to step on it.

There were so many skeletons in this weed, naturally, it wouldn’t be caused by occasional killings between them. If it wasn’t caused by occasional killings between them, then there was only one reason, and that was because the cultivators who wanted to traverse this patch of weeds ended up turning into skeletons.

Mo Wuji hurriedly retracted his foot, and his divine thoughts once again carefully observed the weeds and the broken and shattered walls within it, as well as those skeletons from the weeds.

After half a pillar of incense, Mo Wuji finally saw it clearly. These skeletons were not miserably white, but with some grey, and between the grey there were some black spots. Every single one of them was there, with absolutely no exceptions.

Grey skeletons were common, grey skeletons with black spots on them were not normal. It was even more abnormal to have black spots on every single skeleton.

This is poisoning?

Mo Wuji’s divine thoughts penetrated further down, before when he didn’t penetrate down, he just felt that it was a little dangerous, after all, there wasn’t a single living person here, they were all skeletons.

When Mo Wuji’s divine thoughts penetrated below the ground, his scalp instantly tingled. An extreme nausea almost made him vomit.

That black and grey intersecting and not moving was not the ground, but several thick layers of unknown bugs. The top row of worms looked as if the ground was like dirt, one by one dense and seamless together without moving. But underneath the worms are wriggling and maggots, disgusting to the extreme.

Dangerous, if he didn’t have divine thoughts, the moment he stepped between the broken walls of this patch of weeds, his death would have been announced.

What did Qi Laoshi mean by this? Since he gave the map, why didn’t he specify that this place was dangerous? Could it be that he wasn’t trying to get people to help him find treasures for free?

Regardless of what Qi Laoshi was thinking, Mo Wuji couldn’t care less, as he immediately got out of the way of this place, and then walked along the periphery of this piece of weeds and broken walls for a good half an hour. Along the way, his divine thoughts swept the weeds for the kind of terrifying bugs along the way.

After half an hour, Mo Wuji finally found a safe area. This area seemed to be free of bugs, and some of the raised broken walls would also allow him to land without stepping into the weeds.

It would be a good idea to pass through here.

After Mo Wuji decided, he directly leapt up and landed on top of a raised broken wall. The broken wall did not know how many years it had gone through, and when Mo Wuji stepped on it, there was a loud “poof” sound, and as Mo Wuji left the broken wall, it collapsed with a loud bang, splashing dust in all directions.

At this moment, Mo Wuji had landed on the second raised broken wall, before Mo Wuji could get his foot up again and flew towards the third broken wall, a kind of ‘snorting’ sound abruptly interrupted the silence of the night.

Mo Wuji’s divine thoughts swept his body with goosebumps when he realised what this ‘snorting’ sound was coming from. The bugs that didn’t move before were now frantically curling towards his side. It could be imagined that as long as he was wrapped up in these worms, even a hundred of his Mo Wuji would be dead, and they would die a disgustingly miserable death.

How would Mo Wuji dare to continue staying, frantically catalysing his Yuan Power, his two feet flew up as if he was flying through the air, rushing towards the opposite side.

After a few breaths, Mo Wuji knew that there was absolutely no way he could rush to the opposite side before these insects trapped him. At this point, he had no other choice but to fight for his life. Mo Wuji, who was still in the air, continuously blasted out a thunderbolt.

“Ka ka ka ka ka ka …….” Densely packed explosive mines exploded between those bugs, and a fishy, thick, burnt odour instantly permeated the entire space.

Those bugs seemed to be stunned by the sudden appearance of the explosive thunder and stagnated.

Mo Wuji was overjoyed in his heart, he was afraid that these bugs didn’t have any intelligence. Now, it seemed that these bugs still had a little bit of spiritual intelligence. As long as there was a little bit of spiritual intelligence, then they knew to be afraid. It was also true, how could a bug without spiritual intelligence attack only after he stepped into the Weed Broken Wall?
