"Using a wooden bucket, huh?" Seeing that Wei Zidao's attention had indeed shifted, Mo Wuji chuckled.

Wei Zidao's tone was somewhat somber. "Only wooden buckets can be used in the Sword Qi River. Anything made of magical treasures will attract a large number of sword qi to erode it."

His somber tone was because his guess was correct. Pang Hong and Shang He Gao had indeed found a way to get water from the Sword Qi River. That one bucket of water would take him dozens of times, or even more, to obtain. Now that Pang Hong and Shang He Gao were working together, they could get it in one go.

Wei Zidao subconsciously quickened his pace, not even caring that the sword qi erosion had increased.

Mo Wuji was a Divine Body cultivator, and the sword qi here was many times stronger than elsewhere, but it still didn't pose a life-threatening danger to him. The closer he got to the Sword Qi River, the more bloody wounds he had on his body. As for his sea of consciousness, he wasn't afraid of the sword qi erosion here at all.

With his sea of consciousness unharmed, his soul wouldn't have any problems. As for the primordial spirit, he didn't cultivate it at all. Physical pain was nothing to a body cultivator.

"Pfft!" Just as Mo Wuji and Wei Zidao reached not far from Pang Hong and Shang He Gao, Shang He Gao and Pang Hong simultaneously spat out a mouthful of blood. After spitting out the blood, the two quickly moved away from the Sword Qi River.

Not only did they spit out blood, but their faces were also covered in bloody cuts from the sword qi, deep enough to see bone in some places. Even though Mo Wuji couldn't see how badly their primordial spirits and souls were damaged, he could still vaguely guess.

Wei Zidao didn't care about Pang Hong and Shang He Gao's injuries at all. Every time they took water from the Sword Qi River, they were always injured as if they had been sliced thousands of times.

Being able to exchange for so much Sword Qi River water at once made it all worthwhile.

"Sect Leader Mo is indeed extraordinary, able to stroll leisurely in such a place." Pang Hong was sure that Wei Zidao wouldn't attack him at this time, so he didn't pay attention to Shang He Gao, but looked at Mo Wuji and said coldly.

Mo Wuji was also covered in bloody marks. Compared to the three of them, it wasn't wrong to say that Mo Wuji was strolling leisurely.

Because they had already reached the edge of the Sword Qi River, and he still couldn't sense any heavy burden on Mo Wuji. Even Pang Hong was starting to doubt if he had seen wrong and Mo Wuji was actually an Immortal Emperor.

Not everyone could get water from the Sword Qi River. Although the sword qi backlash here was based on cultivation level, the higher the cultivation level, the greater the sword qi backlash. However, very few people below Immortal King could get water from the Sword Qi River. Even if it was a particularly powerful Grand Luo Immortal, they could only take away a small half cup at most each time.

Wei Zidao had long suspected that Mo Wuji was a body-refining expert. Before, because Mo Wuji suddenly changed the subject, he had forgotten to seek an answer to his question. Now that Pang Hong had once again said that Mo Wuji was strolling leisurely, he remembered his previous question.

Mo Wuji smiled faintly. "It's just that my family was poor when I was young, and I suffered a lot. Now that I've come here, I'm more tolerant. But Immortal Friend Pang and Immortal Friend Shang are not simple either, able to get so much Sword Qi River water at once."

The bucket of water in front of Pang Hong and Shang He Gao was at least seven-tenths full.

"Hehe, that's our business, so Sect Leader Mo doesn't need to worry about it." Pang Hong said indifferently, not believing Mo Wuji's nonsense at all.

So what if Mo Wuji wasn't afraid of the sword qi here? Did Mo Wuji dare to attack here? He was sure that Mo Wuji wouldn't dare to attack.

Originally, Mo Wuji thought that Wei Zidao would say a few words, but he found that Wei Zidao hadn't said a single word. Mo Wuji didn't look at Wei Zidao's expression, but he also felt that something was wrong. Wei Zidao's silence clearly meant that he also wanted to join Pang Hong and Shang He Gao.

If that was the case, he would be even more dangerous alone in Peaceful Vine Mountain, but he couldn't take out the Supreme Azure Pill to give to Wei Zidao.

Just as he was anxious, Wei Zidao suddenly chuckled and said, "I'll also try to see if I can get a bucket of Sword Qi River water."

As he spoke, Wei Zidao had already walked towards the Sword Qi River.

The Sword Qi River was shrouded in a layer of misty white fog, looking just like an ordinary river. Ordinary rivers were also shrouded in a faint layer of white fog in the early morning.

Mo Wuji didn't move. He wanted to see how Wei Zidao scooped up the Sword Qi River water.

Pang Hong and Shang He Gao weren't in a hurry to leave either. They were also watching Shang He Gao. Finding a way to scoop out so much Sword Qi River water at once was one of Pang Hong's secrets. He naturally didn't want Wei Zidao to know this secret either. As long as they didn't go into the river, they could withstand the sword qi on the riverbank, even though it was fierce.

The closer Wei Zidao got to the riverbank, the slower his pace became. Streams of sword qi constantly took away puffs of blood from his body. With each step he took, he left a bloody footprint. Mo Wuji knew that this was just the surface phenomenon. In fact, the damage to Wei Zidao's soul and primordial spirit was far more terrifying than the physical tearing on the surface.

The closer he got to the Sword Qi River, the more Wei Zidao's steps trembled and slowed.

Mo Wuji wasn't clear about the situation, but Shang He Gao and Pang Hong's hearts sank slightly. Wei Zidao's speed was much faster than when they came, indicating that Wei Zidao's strength was indeed far stronger than the two of them. If they dared to use Wei Zidao's speed, their bodies might collapse.

Although the two of them were still watching Wei Zidao, they were also slowly retreating. The further away they were from the Sword Qi River, the weaker the sword qi erosion became.

Mo Wuji didn't move at all. He circulated his body-refining technique while staring at Wei Zidao. The divine sense of his Storage Meridian was constantly surrounding Wei Zidao. He could feel some of the sword qi that entered Wei Zidao's body, and it was indeed very powerful.

A little more than half an incense stick of time passed before Wei Zidao finally reached the edge of the Sword Qi River. He slowly bent down and took out a not-so-large wooden bucket.

The wooden bucket was finally sent into the Sword Qi River water by Wei Zidao. Mo Wuji clearly saw that the moment the wooden bucket entered the river water, Wei Zidao opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood. More than a dozen streams of blood mist were brought out from his body by the sword qi. Wei Zidao's wooden bucket was almost touching the river water when he brought it up.

Mo Wuji saw clearly that the wooden bucket was only filled with a quarter of Sword Qi River water at most. This wooden bucket was already much smaller than Pang Hong and Shang He Gao's wooden buckets, and with only a quarter of Sword Qi River water in it, Mo Wuji knew that Wei Zidao would definitely seek cooperation from Pang Hong and Shang He Gao after returning this time.

Sure enough, after grabbing the wooden bucket, Wei Zidao didn't dare to put the bucket down a second time, but quickly retreated. After he retreated from the riverbank, he said to Mo Wuji, covered in blood, "Sect Leader Mo, I'm too badly injured. I'll go back to heal first."

After speaking, without waiting for Mo Wuji to answer, Wei Zidao turned around and left. His injuries were even worse than Pang Hong and Shang He Gao.

Mo Wuji didn't say anything with a sullen face. He was invited by Wei Zidao. Originally, he was cooperating with Wei Zidao to get water, but now that Wei Zidao was taking water alone, it explained the problem. Mo Wuji understood Wei Zidao's meaning. The first was to tell Pang Hong and Shang He Gao that his relationship with Wei Zidao wasn't that good. The second was to try to see if there was anything special about the place where Pang Hong and Shang He Gao were taking water.

As a result, he found out that there was nothing special about the place where Pang Hong and Shang He Gao were taking water. It was still full of terrifying sword qi.

Because he had found out, Wei Zidao was sure that Pang Hong and Shang He Gao had mastered the means to take water from the Sword Qi River. At this time, he wasn't thinking about forming an alliance with Mo Wuji again, but about continuing to form an alliance with Pang Hong and Shang He Gao.

If he formed an alliance with Mo Wuji, he wouldn't get the Supreme Azure Pill again. If he formed an alliance with Shang He Gao and Pang Hong, he would get a large amount of Sword Qi River water. As long as he wasn't an idiot, how could Wei Zidao not know which choice to make?

No one who could survive in Sword Jail was an idiot. Wei Zidao came with Mo Wuji, and then he took the water himself and quickly left. How could Pang Hong and Shang He Gao not know that Wei Zidao's mindset had changed? As long as they agreed to form an alliance with Wei Zidao again, then driving Mo Wuji away wouldn't be a problem.

So after seeing Wei Zidao leave quickly, Pang Hong and Shang He Gao didn't stop at all and left quickly as well.

Wei Zidao, Pang Hong, and Shang He Gao understood this principle, and Mo Wuji understood it as well. He knew that unless he took out the Supreme Azure Pill, Wei Zidao wouldn't choose to form an alliance with him again.

Taking out the Supreme Azure Pill was like drinking poison to quench thirst, something that Mo Wuji would never do.

After the three of them left, Mo Wuji immediately took out a jade bucket and walked towards the Sword Qi River. He also wanted to try and see if the water in this Sword Qi River was really that difficult to get.

The closer he got to the Sword Qi River, the denser the sword qi became. Towards the end, the skin on Mo Wuji's face and neck was all torn apart by the sword qi, deep enough to see bone in some places.

Even though Mo Wuji had a Divine Body and a body-refining technique, the sword qi here was still something that Mo Wuji couldn't resist.

In fact, although Pang Hong, Wei Zidao, and Shang He Gao didn't cultivate body-refining, they had been tempering their bodies in Sword Jail for many years, and their bodies were already much stronger than those of ordinary Immortal Emperors. So Mo Wuji's Divine Body had an advantage here, but the advantage wasn't very prominent.

His only prominent advantage was that he didn't have the constraints of Sword Talismans and didn't have a primordial spirit. These two points gave him more freedom in Sword Jail. In addition, his sea of consciousness had a purple lake that could accommodate sword qi, which gave him the confidence to survive here.

After half an incense stick of time, Mo Wuji reached the edge of the Sword Qi River. He tried to use his divine sense to drive the jade bucket in his hand. Whether it was the divine sense in his sea of consciousness or the divine sense in his Storage Meridian, as long as he stood on the edge of the Sword Qi River, he couldn't drive the jade bucket in his hand.

The only thing Mo Wuji could do was to slowly bend down, just like Wei Zidao before, and then send the jade bucket into the Sword Qi River.

The moment the jade bucket entered the Sword Qi River, Mo Wuji felt endless sword qi rising from the Sword Qi River and directly entering his body.

Even though Mo Wuji was frantically circulating his body-refining technique at all times, at this moment, his body was still torn apart by the endless sword qi in a terrible state.
