Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 479: Disadvantage
Who wouldn't want to do something that was both icing on the cake and had great benefits? In an instant, the many cultivators who were watching the excitement rushed forward like crazy.
The little trick Mo Wuji had pulled at the end of the auction was completely useless now. He Junhu said he had a million immortal lattice stones on him, and many people believed it. Mo Wuji using the pill furnace to bid up the price was likely just a smokescreen.
Mo Wuji had never seen the strength of a Golden Immortal. With He Junhu, a Golden Immortal cultivator, pouncing on him, how could he hold back? His one hundred and eight meridians surged frantically, and immortal essence poured out like a raging tide, transforming into a torrent of thunder and rain. At the same time, he slashed out with his newly formed half-moon azure halberd. In addition, his divine sense was still constantly watching Lao Cai. There was more than just He Junhu, a Golden Immortal cultivator, who wanted to deal with him here.
As a Celestial Immortal cultivator, he had to deal with the many surrounding cultivators of the same level, and also go all out to deal with He Junhu, and even pay attention to Lao Cai on the side. The pressure was imaginable.
"Boom boom boom!" Large swathes of thunderous sword rain fell wildly, and the countless swarming Celestial Immortal cultivators were instantly enveloped within this violent rain of thunder.
A azure half-moon halberd radiance, several dozen feet long, was still eye-catching amidst the sky full of thunderous sword rain. This azure half-moon halberd radiance slashed towards He Junhu.
"Bang!" He Junhu's Golden Immortal shield shattered directly. The square seal he was preparing to smash at Mo Wuji was forcibly retracted, and he used it to block Mo Wuji's azure moon halberd radiance.
"Crack!" Even though it was an invisible halberd radiance, when He Junhu's square seal struck it, there was a cracking sound, and the halberd radiance splashed everywhere. Bursts of halberd radiance, almost tearing through his skin, swept across He Junhu, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.
His Golden Immortal domain, which hadn't completely bound Mo Wuji yet, was actually torn apart by this remnant halberd radiance, creating a gap.
He Junhu was shocked. He hadn't expected Mo Wuji's halberd to be so powerful. Immediately, he became even more eager. Mo Wuji was indeed powerful, but no matter how powerful he was, a mere halberd radiance wouldn't be enough to make him so embarrassed. It was conceivable that the truly powerful thing wasn't Mo Wuji, but the half-moon azure halberd in Mo Wuji's hand.
At the same time as he tore a gap in He Junhu's Golden Immortal domain, Mo Wuji felt relieved. His biggest worry was that he wouldn't be able to fight back against a Golden Immortal. Now that he had the power to fight back, he wasn't afraid at all.
Before He Junhu's Golden Immortal domain could condense again, Mo Wuji slashed out with the half-moon azure halberd in his hand once more.
This time, it wasn't one halberd radiance, but more than a dozen halberd radiances slashing out at the same time.
Even though Mo Wuji still had one hundred and eight meridians, and the immortal essence in these meridians was surging frantically, Mo Wuji still felt a strong sense of emptiness with this attack. These dozen or so halberd radiances seemed to have drained his body and soul, making him exhausted.
"Chī chī!" Bursts of sound echoed through the void. Even though Mo Wuji's immortal essence was almost exhausted, the immortal essence power in his storage meridians still transformed into bursts of spell incantations, and he continued to bombard down the sky full of thunderous sword rain.
"Kā kā kā kā!" He Junhu's Golden Immortal domain had just condensed again when several halberd radiances tore his domain apart once more.
A sense of death washed over him, and He Junhu was terrified. He knew Mo Wuji's azure halberd was powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so powerful that it would take his life.
If he were in the Immortal Realm, he definitely wouldn't be afraid of Mo Wuji. But in this place, he could only exert 70% of his strength. This was because he was bound by a rule talisman. Once he exerted all of his strength, he would likely break free of the rule talisman. Once the rule talisman was broken free, or shattered, he would be suppressed by the rules of heaven and earth. Faced with the rules of heaven and earth, not to mention a small fry like He Junhu, even a true Immortal King would face certain death.
He couldn't hesitate at this moment. Mo Wuji's half-moon halberd radiance, mixed with fierce and terrifying heaven and earth killing intent, swept down overwhelmingly. How could he hold back?
He Junhu gritted his teeth and frantically poured immortal essence into the great seal in his hand. At this moment, the great seal in his hand transformed into a huge mountain peak of several dozen feet, and he bombarded it towards Mo Wuji's dozen or so half-moon halberd radiances.
"Boom! Crack! Crack!" The frenzied half-moon halberd radiance was struck by the great seal at this moment, and the halberd radiance exploded, mixing with the thunderous sword rain that had already obscured this space, scattering killing intent everywhere.
Some of the Celestial Immortal cultivators who hadn't rushed into the encirclement subconsciously retreated. This power was simply too terrifying.
An immortal essence power that almost crushed everything surged over. Mo Wuji's dozen or so azure halberd radiances were forcibly blasted open, creating a passageway. The complete halberd radiance shattered in an instant. The huge mountain peak seal directly struck Mo Wuji's Celestial Machine Staff, as if he had been directly hit in the chest by a mountain peak. The bones in Mo Wuji's chest shattered inch by inch, and he spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot, flying backwards.
Fortunately, Han Qingru rushed up in time and caught Mo Wuji. Otherwise, if Mo Wuji was blasted into the crowd, even if he was strong, he would face certain death.
"Pfft!" Mo Wuji spat out another mouthful of blood and grabbed a few pills to swallow. He was secretly shocked. Golden Immortals were indeed powerful.
Lao Cai, who hadn't made a move in the distance, retreated a step after seeing Mo Wuji's first half-moon halberd radiance. This time, when Mo Wuji's halberd radiance was shattered by He Junhu's great seal, and Mo Wuji was even seriously injured, he retreated a few more steps.
The frantic battle from just now had suddenly become silent, as if it were a mid-game break, creating an eerie silence.
The thunderous sword rain and half-moon halberd radiance in the sky dissipated, and dozens of Celestial Immortal cultivators were torn in half by the thunderous sword rain. Too many incomplete corpses were piled up on the ground. From the blackness on those corpses, it could be seen that a large portion of them were killed by the thunderous sword rain, and some were killed by the azure moon halberd radiance.
"Junior Brother, you..." Han Qingru protected Mo Wuji, extremely anxious. She knew that it would be difficult to escape today.
"He's seriously injured, kill him!" Some Celestial Immortal cultivators reacted in the shortest possible time and rushed towards Mo Wuji like bloodthirsty beasts.
Thinking of the immortal lattice stones on Mo Wuji's body, and the treasures on Mo Wuji's body, where was there any rationality at this moment? Countless magical treasure lights flickered, almost completely covering the three of them.
"I'm fine..." Mo Wuji stood up, and the half-moon azure halberd in his hand transformed once more, forming an immortal essence protective circle around the three of them with azure halberd radiance.
Han Qingru and Tong Ye also reacted, and they similarly took out their magical treasures, establishing immortal essence protective walls.
Everyone knew that this kind of protection could only last for a dozen breaths at most. More than a hundred Celestial Immortal cultivators were attacking the three of them at the same time, and the three of them didn't have any top-grade defensive magical treasures. It would be strange if this kind of immortal essence could protect them for long.
Seeing the three of them fighting against the tide, dozens more Celestial Immortal cultivators joined in.
Mo Wuji had never thought of defending. If it weren't for going all out to deal with He Junhu just now, he really wouldn't have been afraid of even more Celestial Immortal cultivators.
At this moment, with so many Celestial Immortal cultivators rushing over, even Mo Wuji felt a sense of sorrow. He had overestimated his strength. He did have trump cards, but what if he killed He Junhu? There was still Lao Cai, and so many Celestial Immortal cultivators? In addition, there were even Golden Immortal experts further away.
Soon, Mo Wuji felt that something was wrong. He actually saw that He Junhu hadn't continued to attack. He Junhu had only suffered minor injuries at most just now. If he said that he didn't want to take his life while he had the chance, Mo Wuji definitely wouldn't believe it.
The only possibility was that He Junhu himself had a problem. Thinking of this, Mo Wuji wouldn't be polite. He took a few steps in the air, and rained down swathes of thunderous sword rain.
Even though he was attacking the many Celestial Immortal cultivators and raining down large swathes of thunderous sword rain, Mo Wuji still had half of his attention on Lao Cai and He Junhu.
Soon, he discovered that his guess wasn't wrong. He Junhu's expression was ugly, but he didn't continue to attack him.
He knew that if He Junhu attacked him now, he would have no choice but to escape. In fact, he also knew that he probably wouldn't be able to escape at all, unless he was willing to abandon Han Qingru and Tong Ye. Abandoning Han Qingru and Tong Ye, who were willing to stay and fight alongside him, was simply not in his character.
