Han Qingru pointed at Mo Wuji with trembling fingers, "Mo Wuji, I admit I was blind. I never thought you would be so vicious, even killing your benefactor. You want the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp, take it, why kill innocent Su Xi? Lun Cai Great Emperor has a grudge with you, but his concubine was innocent, why didn't you save her?"
Every word was like a needle, piercing deep into Mo Wuji's heart.
"Yes, kill the scum!" Voices echoed, as hundreds of cultivators surrounded Mo Wuji, many even clutching a escape talisman. Mo Wuji had many treasures, and it was said he also possessed a celestial puppet. Once Mo Wuji released the puppet, they could escape at any moment.
Mo Wuji frowned slightly. Even if Han Qingru despised his character, she wasn't this type of person. Exposing him was already strange, but to insult him a second time? People do change, but not this drastically.
"Kill!" Streams of magic weapon light bombarded Mo Wuji, instantly engulfing him in a storm of attacks.
With a wave of his hand, the Half-Moon Heavy Halberd appeared. His domain transformed into a celestial essence vortex, dissipating ninety percent of the attacks. Halberd light transformed into boundless killing intent, tearing outwards. Whether he knew them or it was a misunderstanding, these people were trying to kill him, what reason did he have to hesitate? Besides, his strength didn't allow him to hesitate.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" The halberd's light transformed into rings of killing intent, spraying countless bursts of blood mist beneath them. At this moment, Mo Wuji truly realized his own power.
Apart from a few Immortal King powerhouses, those with weaker cultivation were affected by the vortex celestial domain, then severely injured or killed by the halberd light.
Mo Wuji exhaled a long breath, the repressed feelings seeming to dissipate a little.
"Not good, he's advanced to Immortal King..." someone immediately shouted. Without being an Immortal King, how could he possess such terrifying domain aura and killing momentum?
Some cultivators with lower cultivation levels retreated, but more and more cultivators swarmed towards him.
Rumor had it that Mo Wuji was an Eight-Star Pill Emperor, and besides the Great Kun Buddhist Lamp, he also possessed various treasures obtained in the Gods Tower.
How much benefit could be gained from killing such a person? No matter how strong Mo Wuji was as an Immortal King, he couldn't withstand the siege of so many people.
The countless cultivators shouting to kill the scum Mo Wuji, were actually thinking about how to get a share of the spoils after killing him. As for whether Mo Wuji was scum, that was just lip service, who would take it seriously? Because whether he was or wasn't, it didn't matter. Apart from a very few, how many people would really attack Mo Wuji because he was scum?
Several Immortal Sovereigns quickly flew over, blocking Mo Wuji's path. One of them, a tall, thin man, shouted sharply, "Everyone in the Immortal Realm has a responsibility to eliminate this kind of scum. I suggest everyone join forces to kill him, and prevent him from continuing to harm the Immortal Realm. If there are any losses, we'll use the items on him to compensate."
With just those words, the crowd of cultivators besieging Mo Wuji became orderly. Everyone understood the tall, thin man's meaning, which was to tell everyone that as long as they participated in the siege of Mo Wuji, they could share the loot.
Mo Wuji didn't pay attention to the people around him. Even without Da Huang, he could easily escape. What he cared about was Han Qingru, and he now noticed that she was slowly retreating, even to near the city gate.
"Kill!" Another roar sounded, and dozens more beams of murderous light bombarded Mo Wuji again.
This attack was several times stronger than the first. Mo Wuji's earlier halberd strike had killed at least a dozen cultivators with weaker cultivation. Now that the weaker ones had retreated and the stronger ones had swarmed forward, the pressure on Mo Wuji instantly increased.
Mo Wuji's eyes narrowed, he finally saw something was wrong. There were traces of recently set up formations around the edge of Dayi Immortal City, and this formation was a top-grade trapping and killing formation, even somewhat like a Immortal Cauldron Formation.
If he hadn't been delayed in the Locking Immortal Formation for a year or two, if this Immortal Cauldron Formation hadn't been set up in a hurry, Mo Wuji wouldn't have been able to recognize it.
Having been trapped in a top-grade formation like the Locking Immortal Formation for more than a year, what formation in the Immortal Realm could he, Mo Wuji, not see through? He might not be able to set them up, but to think that a mere temporarily set up trapping formation could prevent him from seeing through it, was insulting his intelligence. He was at least a near Six-Star Immortal Formation Grandmaster.
At this moment, Mo Wuji felt a lot more relaxed. He was right about Han Qingru. He would rather be ambushed by powerhouses setting up a Immortal Cauldron Formation, than be schemed against by Han Qingru.
Although he didn't know how Han Qingru knew that Dayi Immortal City had such a top-grade trapping and killing formation, he was very clear about what Han Qingru meant by stopping him earlier.
He even understood why Han Qingru didn't transmit a message to him, it was because Han Qingru knew that there were top-grade powerhouses here, and her little bit of transmission couldn't possibly escape their notice. Another reason was that Han Qingru didn't want to implicate him. If she transmitted a message to him, he would definitely take her away.
Countless magic weapons had already crashed down. Mo Wuji's halberd rose again, this time he wouldn't hold back, unleashing the halberd dao divine ability, Great Desert, with one strike.
"Boom!" A vast expanse of halberd light drew out, transforming into an endless and boundless desert. At this moment, everything beneath his Great Desert would be devoured.
Da Huang was also released by Mo Wuji at the same time. No matter how strong he was, he couldn't contend against Immortal Kings and Immortal Sovereigns. These were only for Da Huang to deal with.
"Bang!" Having received Mo Wuji's instructions, Da Huang fearlessly threw out several punches. Streams of terrifying Immortal Emperor essence force blasted out. Under Da Huang's powerful strength, neither Immortal Kings nor Immortal Sovereigns were a match for him.
The moment Da Huang moved, the several Immortal Sovereigns who were prepared to escape realized what was happening, and retreated swiftly. Mo Wuji's killing intent soared. Having besieged him, they thought they could leave so easily?
Da Huang's overwhelming spatial domain restriction enveloped everything around, and Mo Wuji's Great Desert halberd light also shattered at this moment like a burst of sand dunes.
"Puff puff puff!" Blood mist once again obscured the surrounding space, and figures fell one after another.
The cultivators who had just joined together to besiege Mo Wuji, almost all chose to escape at this moment. Under Da Huang's spatial crushing and Mo Wuji's Great Desert divine ability, no one below the Immortal Emperor could withstand them. Unfortunately, there were no Immortal Emperors here. Mo Wuji killed a hundred or two people, without even suffering the slightest injury.
"Escape!" Some cultivators who had been fortunate enough not to be enveloped by Mo Wuji's Great Desert fled one after another. Mo Wuji not only didn't chase, but also turned around and quickly fled.
In reality, Mo Wuji had better ways to escape. He could simply rush towards Han Qingru at the entrance of Dayi Immortal City, and then grab Han Qingru and immediately retreat. He definitely had a sixty percent chance of escaping safely.
But he didn't dare. Since Han Qingru dared to risk such danger to warn him, it meant that as long as he dared to take another step towards Dayi Immortal City, Han Qingru would directly shout.
Once Han Qingru shouted, it would be harmful to both of them. Not only would it harm Han Qingru, but he would also fall into a more terrifying encirclement.
If Mo Wuji didn't know who was in Dayi Immortal City at this point, he wouldn't have survived to this day.
How long had it been since he left Tianqian Immortal City? He felt uneasy only after entering Tianqian Immortal City. This meant that he was recognized only after entering Tianqian Immortal City.
It had only been half a day since he entered Tianqian Immortal City. In just half a day, to be able to set up such a trapping and killing formation in Dayi Immortal City, could ordinary people do that? Who else could do these things besides the Immortal Emperor powerhouses of Lei Sect and the Immortal Emperor powerhouses of Great Sword Dao? It might even be a joint effort.
There wasn't a single Immortal Emperor powerhouse besieging him now, which illustrated a problem, that those Immortal Emperor powerhouses were constantly watching him, and as long as he didn't enter Dayi Immortal City, they would attack at the first moment. And these powerhouses were all waiting for him to enter Dayi Immortal City.
It was fine if he moved forward now, and it would even paralyze the other party. Once he retreated, something would definitely happen.
No matter what, Mo Wuji could only retreat. At this time, he didn't dare to escape from the air. He didn't need to look to know that the surrounding space had already been locked down by the forbidden air restriction.
Perhaps these forbidden air restrictions were very crude, but as long as they could lock him down for a breath, he would be finished.
Sure enough, as soon as Mo Wuji retreated, several powerful auras immediately rushed out, and several streams of overwhelming essence force bombarded Mo Wuji.
Regardless, Mo Wuji simply rolled up Da Huang and teleported instantly. Only by reaching the edge of Zero Heaven Immortal Domain would he have a chance to escape.
"Boom boom boom!" Three consecutive streams of essence force bombarded Mo Wuji's body. Even though these three streams of essence force were relatively far from Mo Wuji, and were rushed out, they were, after all, attacks from Immortal Emperor powerhouses. With Mo Wuji's Third Level Immortal Physique, these three streams of essence force still directly caused him to spit out three mouthfuls of blood, and the bones in his body cracked.
Mo Wuji's teleportation and Wind Escape Technique came into play at this moment. He could almost rush out of the edge of the Immortal Domain and enter the void in the shortest amount of time.
Reaching the edge of the Immortal Domain, Mo Wuji stopped. He thought of a terrible consequence. Even he could think that Han Qingru was helping him, how could those Great Immortal Emperors not think of it?
Even if they didn't think of it temporarily, wouldn't they think of it after this matter was over?
Stopping for only a breath, an aura of death enveloped him. Mo Wuji was very clear that facing this kind of Great Immortal Emperor, he couldn't even afford half a breath. Going back at this time, not to mention saving Han Qingru, he himself would be trapped. The only thing he could do was to escape into the void, and buy a little time for Han Qingru's escape.
Mo Wuji directly burned his life force. No matter how severely he was injured, he directly disappeared from the spot.
Almost at the same time as Mo Wuji disappeared, three streams of spatial force locked down the position where he had just stood, and a terrifying essence force blasted the position where he had stood not long ago into nothingness.
"Benefactor Mo, have you been well? This old monk has been waiting for you for a long time." A gentle voice sounded, and the figure of Guang Xing suddenly blocked Mo Wuji's path. He seemed to know that Mo Wuji could not possibly enter Dayi Immortal City, and stayed outside the Immortal Domain to wait for Mo Wuji.
