Earthly Deity Chapter 27

“Ka!” Another lightning arc flashed out from the Thunder Zephyr, Mo Wuji’s body twisted and he avoided this one with extreme ease.

Mo Wuji himself was in awe, in fact, when he started dodging, he didn’t even think that he would be able to avoid this thunder arc.

No wonder he had heard people say that cultivators were powerful, he hadn’t even started cultivating yet, and just by opening up one meridian, he felt like his entire body had relaxed, as if the legend said that he had opened up the Ren and Dudu meridians. How powerful should those guys who had opened dozens of meridians and had cultivated for years be?

Several more lightning bolts fell, Mo Wuji didn’t have the means to avoid them all, but he could already move. After half a pillar of incense, Mo Wuji was once again struck by the lightning from the Thunder Zephyr for a dozen times before he finally broke out of the Thunder Zephyr.

Mo Wuji, who originally thought that he would definitely die, stood at the edge of the Thunder Zephyr and sighed in his heart. Who could know the woes and blessings of life? If he hadn’t experienced this certain death, would he have been able to open a meridian with the help of the Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid that he had refined and the Thunder Ze lightning?

One meridian opening would have cost him eight bottles of Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid, plus half of his life sent away, this price was not small. Although Mo Wuji’s divine sense still had two more bottles of Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid, he had no intention of continuing to go and get struck by lightning trying to open a second meridian.

Even Mo Wuji himself was clear that he would not be able to open the second meridian if he continued to use the Vein Opening Medicinal Liquid with the help of Thunder Zephyr’s lightning strikes. If he was not careful, he might even give away his life.

Mo Wuji wasn’t disappointed, being able to open a meridian was already considered a heavenly surprise. More importantly, it allowed him to master a means that could open up a vein. If a vein was a spirit chakra, if he opened up ninety-nine veins one day, wouldn’t that mean that he was also a cultivation genius?

Another horrendous beast roar came and Mo Wuji snapped out of his mirth, it was only then that he remembered that he was still in the Thunder Mist Forest, and that there were two other powerful demonic beasts fighting not too far away before he entered the Thunder Zephyr.

Now the place where those two demonic beasts fought was in a mess while both demonic beasts had disappeared, a few more hissing roars came, Mo Wuji decided that it was better not to venture out. Going out at night was good, but if he got lost and entered the depths of the Thunder Mist Forest, he would be screwed.

Just a short distance away from the Thunder Mist, Mo Wuji chose a giant tree and climbed up, finding a spot in the middle of the tree’s branches and just half leaning against it. The long tattered top was torn apart and tied together into a knot by Mo Wuji before using this cloth to secure himself in the middle of the tree branches.

In a place like the Thunder Mist Forest, he wouldn’t dare to stay down there for the night.

……

Leaning in the middle of a tree branch, Mo Wuji didn’t know when he fell asleep. When he woke up, there was already light shooting down from the gaps in the trees, falling on his body through the hazy mist.

Mo Wuji looked around and was sure that there wasn’t any danger before he quickly untied his knotted clothes and slid down from the tree. He had to get out of the Thunder Mist Forest as fast as he could, and he had to do it all at once, otherwise he would most likely stay here forever.

Just because he had better luck last night didn’t mean that he was always this lucky.

Mo Wuji reckoned that he wouldn’t be coming back here again, he still carefully observed the location of this Thunder Mist. In case the second meridian would require the lightning arc here, maybe he would take a risk once more.

In the Thunder Mist Forest, there were many Thunder Zephyrs. But I’m afraid that the Thunder Zephyr that could cooperate with him to open his meridians was not easy to find, once he met those Thunder Zephyrs with powerful lightning, a thunder arc would come down, and without waiting for his meridians to open, others would be broken into pieces.

Double Leaf Flame Grass? Mo Wuji recognised the Double Leaf Flame Grass at first glance. Last night, he didn’t care about it because it was already late in the day. It was only at this moment that Mo Wuji saw clearly that there were at least three Double Leaf Flame Grasses at the location where he had rushed into the Thunderbolt last night.

The Double Leaf Flame Grass was extremely recognisable with its two blades separated and a flame shaped core in the middle.

Mo Wuji didn’t immediately go and pick the Double Leaf Flame Grass, this kind of grass had a great effect on the Cold Condensation, and it wasn’t of much use to him. The most important thing for him right now was to hurry up and find a way out and escape from the Thunder Mist Forest before saying anything.

It was dusk when he escaped into the Thunder Mist Forest last night, Mo Wuji still quickly recognised the direction he came in last night. He was slightly relieved in his heart, according to the time calculation, his location was still at the edge of the Thunder Mist Forest.

Digging out those three Double Leaf Flame Grasses as fast as he could, Mo Wuji rushed out in the direction he remembered. He believed that those Diamond Heart Snakes wouldn’t continue to stay where they were and must have left long ago. That a group of Diamond Heart Snakes had all come out, it was probably caused by whatever reason. No matter what the reason was, he didn’t want to stay here for a moment longer.

Half an hour later, Mo Wuji’s sense of direction gradually disappeared, and he became a little anxious in his heart. If he couldn’t find a way out within ten minutes, it meant that he was truly lost, then he might not be able to find his way out again.

“Mo Wuji ……” A shout came from the distance.

Mo Wuji thought he heard it wrong, how could someone call his name? When that shout came again, Mo Wuji was sure that he hadn’t heard wrong, it was indeed someone calling his name. Moreover, the voice calling his name was somewhat familiar to him, it should be Ding Bu Er.

Ding Bu Er hadn’t been bitten to death by the Diamond Snake and was still looking for him, this made Mo Wuji very happy.

With the voice, there was a direction, Mo Wuji sped up his pace along the location where Ding Bu Er had made the sound. In just a few minutes, Mo Wuji felt his eyes open up.

The low shrubbery wasteland in front of him caused Mo Wuji to call out in excitement, “Bu Er, I’m over here.”

He had finally come out.

A dozen breaths later, five silhouettes turned out from behind a short mound.

“Wuji, you’re actually fine, it’s really great …… But how did you become like this?” Ding Bu Er also didn’t expect Mo Wuji to still be alive, to spend the night in this place and still be able to survive that was really luck amongst luck. It was just that Mo Wuji’s hair was obviously burnt by something, his half **** upper body was covered with a streak of black marks everywhere, and one of his arms was still not able to lift up, tied with a piece of rags and hanging on his neck.

“Bu Er, thank you this time. I was in a daze and still didn’t know which way to go when I heard your shout.” Mo Wuji said gratefully, he didn’t explain the reason for the scorched blackness on his body.

Ding Bu Er hurriedly said, “I just wanted to take my chances, that’s why I said to the lady to call your name to take a look, I didn’t expect to really find you. Twelve of us came, and now with you there are only six of us.”

Mo Wuji hurriedly stepped forward and thanked, “Thank you Miss for your concern, otherwise I definitely wouldn’t be able to walk out here.”

Han Ning looked not only tired but also a little bit wretched, and that fiery red dress had long been a little tattered as well. Seeing Mo Wuji thanking her, she waved her hand, “Being able to survive is already considered heavenly luck. Yesterday, a total of six of us died, the remains of the rest were found, only you are missing. Ding Bu Er asked me to come and look for you, so I let everyone come along to call, and it’s just a slight effort.”

Mo Wuji saw that apart from that maid Shao Lan beside Han Ning, there was also Peng Maohua and Chai Jiu who was watching the horses, together with him and Ding Bu Er, there was exactly only half of them left.

At this time, all eyes fell on Han Ning. She was the lady of the Cold Mansion, naturally she was the one who made the decisions.

With an apology, Han Ning said, ”I also didn’t expect that as soon as we approached the Thunder Mist Forest, we would meet a group of Diamond Heart Snakes. This kind of unlucky thing can happen to me, maybe I’m not fated to get the Double Leaf Flame Grass.”

Peng Maohua asked carefully, “Miss, then shall we go back now?”

Han Ning’s gaze lingered on Peng Maohua for a while before she sighed and said, “I have to get the Double Leaf Flame Grass, which is only found at the edge of this part of our Thunder Mist Forest. This time I didn’t expect it to be so dangerous, I won’t force everyone next, those who are willing to go with me to search for the Double Leaf Flame Grass stay, those who don’t want to go, can go back first.”
