"Dao Emperor, I think perhaps we can capture all the people around Mo Wuji of the Mortal Immortal Sect and send them to the God Race to appease their anger," Jin Yu hurriedly said again. He was increasingly eager to take the initiative to go to the Mortal Immortal Sect, suspecting that someone there knew Mo Wuji's whereabouts. That way, he could both destroy the Mortal Immortal Sect to gain benefits and find out where Mo Wuji was hiding.

"Foolish!" A stern voice rebuked. "The Immortal City in the Grand Heaven Universe that our Immortal Realm occupies has long been coveted. This time, it's just that the God Race found an excuse. Even if the God Race hadn't found an excuse, other races could still use it as an excuse during the next Outer Heaven Corridor garrison."

The speaker was a middle-aged man with sword-like eyebrows, appearing somewhat thin.

Everyone in the hall recognized him: Zhong Minshan, the Grand Immortal Emperor of the Grand Heaven and also one of the court protectors of the Grand Heaven. Zhong Minshan was very strong, but he was somewhat rigid and hated evil, so he didn't have many friends in the Grand Heaven.

Jin Yu stared at Zhong Minshan coldly and said, "Does Court Protector Zhong mean that Mo Wuji killed Wu Li, the genius young master of the God Race, and didn't cause trouble for our human race?"

Zhong Minshan laughed loudly, his face becoming even more sarcastic. He pointed at Jin Yu and shouted, "Our Immortal Realm human race has been increasingly squeezed in the Outer Heaven Universe because of cowards and weaklings like you, eventually shrinking to a small Immortal City. Even if we shrink to this small Immortal City, with cowards like you around, we'll lose it sooner or later."

Zi Changluo's face was somewhat unsightly, his eyes even a little icy. The main reason the Immortal Realm human race had been swallowed up in the Outer Heaven Universe to the point of having only a small Immortal City was because of him, Zi Changluo.

After he crossed the Grand Immortal Emperor, he felt that he had surpassed the rules of the Immortal Realm. After discovering the Grand Heaven Universe, he was unwilling to the vast area occupied by the Immortal Realm and wanted to command the entire Outer Heaven Universe. Because at that time, the human race was considered the most powerful race in the Outer Heaven Universe.

As a result, some small races began to tell other large races about the appearance of the Outer Heaven Universe, and strong individuals from the God Race, Demon Race, Monster Race, and others intervened. The result of the intervention of these powerful races was that the human race's territory was gradually swallowed up, and they could only defend the Immortal City in the Grand Heaven.

The reason the Immortal City in the Grand Heaven Universe could be preserved was because the Immortal City had a top-notch protective array, which was even more powerful than the protective array of Universe Corner. In addition, other races were frantically plundering the cultivation resources of the Outer Heaven Universe, so where did they have time to fight to the death with the human race? After all, in the Outer Heaven Universe, the Immortal Realm human race only had the last Immortal City left. If other races wanted to seize this Immortal City, it was likely to cause the Immortal Realm human race to fight desperately.

Because the main reason the Immortal Realm only had one Immortal City left was caused by Zi Changluo, his face turned unsightly when Zhong Minshan mentioned this matter.

Jin Yu cupped his fists towards Zi Changluo, then coldly said to Zhong Minshan, "According to your statement, then Mo Wuji should have killed Wu Li to cause trouble for the human race, should have provoked the Hexi Cultivation Association, should have provoked the Mifei Business Association? He caused trouble, and our Immortal Realm human race should help him pay his debts and give up our lives?"

Zhong Minshan said disdainfully, "Wu Li used the name of Dao discussion platform to kill many geniuses of our human race. I know of at least a dozen. And you actually want to destroy the Mortal Immortal Sect and then arrest the people of Mo Wuji's sect to send to the God Race to beg them not to attack because Mo Wuji killed Wu Li. Jin Yu, don't think that others don't know that your Jin family has a share in the Mifei Business Association. You are simply not worthy to be a human race cultivator, let alone be in the Grand Heaven."

"Enough, Zhong Minshan, step down," Zi Changluo said, his tone becoming increasingly icy.

Zhong Minshan was actually slapping Zi Changluo's face when he talked about the Jin family and Jin Yu.

"Boom!" A violent shaking came, and almost the entire hall trembled.

Zi Changluo suddenly stood up, his face somewhat unsightly. The God Race army had not yet arrived, but the strong individuals of the God Race were already bombarding the protective array. This was simply not taking the Immortal Realm human race seriously.

...

Mo Wuji also stopped cultivating with a somewhat unsightly expression. It wasn't that he didn't want to cultivate, but after more than a year of closed-door cultivation, he had used up one or two million Green Crystals, but he couldn't even touch or sense the Immortal Emperor Realm. Not to mention the Immortal Emperor Realm, he was far from even the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

He knew that his guess had become a fact: he hadn't accumulated enough time. Even if his cultivation resources were abundant and the Immortal Mortal Technique was heaven-defying, he couldn't enter the Immortal Emperor Realm in the short term.

Fortunately, after more than a year of closed-door cultivation, his immortal essence had become much more condensed again, reaching the Immortal Reverent Perfection Realm, and his strength had greatly increased compared to before.

Inside the Immortal World, the pot-throwing tree was still asleep. The seven Form Dao Fruits had matured and were stored in seven jade boxes by Mo Wuji.

Since he couldn't advance further, Mo Wuji simply stopped cultivating. This place was full of powerful monsters, and he couldn't leave for a while, so he started refining artifacts.

He had a mountain of artifact refining materials on him. In addition to improving his artifact refining skills, artifact refining could also precipitate his Dao thoughts.

In terms of the Great Dao, artifact refining was also a type of cultivation. Mo Wuji knew that he couldn't rush at this time. The more he rushed, the more stagnant the Great Dao would become.

Time gradually passed, and the mountain of materials beside Mo Wuji slowly shrunk. The immortal artifacts beside him gradually piled up, from Fifth Grade Immortal Artifacts to Sixth Grade Immortal Artifacts to Seventh Grade Immortal Artifacts.

After another two years, when Mo Wuji was barely able to refine Ninth Grade Immortal Artifacts, all but ten-odd of the most top-notch immortal materials beside him were used up.

During the years of artifact refining, Mo Wuji had a deeper understanding of the true extraordinary nature of the Immortal Mortal Technique. Turning decay into the miraculous; perhaps this sentence could perfectly explain the Immortal Mortal Technique. If it were anyone else, even with Xu Suren's guidance, it would be impossible to go from a Sixth Grade Artifact Refiner to a Ninth Grade Artifact Emperor in just a few years.

The only thing Mo Wuji regretted was that he was still at Immortal Reverent Perfection. Although his aura was even more rounded than it had been three years ago, Mo Wuji knew very well that he still hadn't touched the Immortal Emperor Realm, not even the Quasi-Emperor Realm.

Fortunately, there was still a pool here. He could wash himself in this pool for another three years. If, after three years, he still couldn't comprehend the Immortal Emperor Realm, then he would have to leave this place, even if it meant taking risks.

The water in the pool was a little cool but not cold. Mo Wuji sat at the bottom of the pool and fully circulated his body refining technique. The water in this pool couldn't make Mo Wuji's physical body stronger, but under the body refining technique, it could slowly wash out the impurities in Mo Wuji's body.

The lower the impurities in the physical body, the deeper the perception of Dao thoughts, the more effective cultivation would be, and even body refining would rise to another level.

While Mo Wuji was completely immersed in washing his body in the pool, the protective array of the Mortal Immortal Sect was being surrounded by more than a dozen strong individuals.

If Mo Wuji were here, he would definitely recognize two of them: one was Jin Yu, and the other was Jin Yiren.

Farther away from the Mortal Immortal Sect's protective array, a stunning woman was standing in the void. She looked at the Mortal Immortal Sect in the distance, feeling very puzzled. She had found her way here based on her Star Clasp, but she had clearly left the Star Clasp with Mo Wuji. Why was the Star Clasp on a woman's neck at this moment?

"Boom!" Jin Yu and others had completed the formation of the Trapping Killing Array and began to attack the Mortal Immortal Sect.

"Stop! By what right does your Grand Heaven attack my Mortal Immortal Sect?" Su Zian landed angrily at the edge of the protective array, shouting sternly.

Wei Zidao, Jian Mingcheng, and Nie Chong'an were standing beside Elder Su. Although Su Zian was only one step away from the Immortal Emperor, he was Mo Wuji's appointed acting sect master. When Mo Wuji was not around, Su Zian was the sect master of the sect.

"Mortal Immortal Sect?" Jin Yiren laughed loudly. "Mo Wuji committed heinous crimes in the Outer Heaven Universe. Does the Mortal Immortal Sect still want to exist? I'm telling you, from now on, even a dog in the Mortal Immortal Sect will have its soul extracted and refined."

"Boom!" After Jin Yiren finished speaking, Jin Yu shouted again, and more than a dozen Immortal Emperors and Grand Immortal Emperors all sacrificed their magic weapons.

"Stop!" Another clear and cold voice came. This time, the speaker was not someone from inside the Mortal Immortal Sect, but a stunning woman. She was standing in front of the more than a dozen Immortal Emperors who were besieging the Mortal Immortal Sect, and no one knew when she had arrived.

"Destroying the Mortal Immortal Sect is the Dao Emperor's decree. Who are you? How dare you come here to stop us?" A yellow-bearded man stepped forward and shouted. He was also a Grand Immortal Emperor.

"What does your destruction of the Mortal Immortal Sect have to do with Mo Wuji?" The stunning woman asked calmly.

Perhaps because this stunning woman had arrived here so suddenly, several Grand Immortal Emperors were unable to detect her. Now that she asked, someone immediately said, "Mo Wuji is the sect master of the Mortal Immortal Sect. He committed heinous crimes in the Outer Heaven Universe, implicating the entire Immortal Realm human race. Because of this, the Dao Emperor ordered the destruction of the Mortal Immortal Sect."

Upon hearing this, the stunning woman suddenly waved her hand and said, "Since that's the case, then you all should leave. Mo Wuji is my junior brother. I won't allow you to destroy the Mortal Immortal Sect."

Jin Yu shouted again, "Everyone, attack together!"

More than a dozen Immortal Emperors almost simultaneously sacrificed their magic weapons and bombarded the woman. The destructive aura swept over the sky. Even Su Zian, who was inside the protective array, felt the oppression of space at this moment.

The stunning woman simply waved her hand, and the more than a dozen top-notch magic weapons disappeared without a trace. The overbearing aura that oppressed the space also collapsed at this moment.

The woman then said faintly, "You should leave, or don't blame me for taking action."

As she spoke, the woman's powerful domain crushed over, and the more than a dozen Immortal Emperors felt as if a hammer had struck their chests. They all spat out a mouthful of essence blood and flew backward.

Without the woman needing to say it a second time, the more than a dozen Immortal Emperors quickly fled, not even having the courage to ask for their magic weapons back. They were certain that even Dao Emperor Zi Changluo was simply not a match for this woman.

"Thank you, Senior, for your help. Su Zian, the acting sect master of the Mortal Immortal Sect, greets Senior," Su Zian quickly opened the protective array and bowed respectfully.

The stunning woman nodded. "My name is Ji Li. I'm about to leave this place and wanted to see my junior brother Mo Wuji on the way."

Ji Li was gentle by nature, kind-hearted, and disliked killing. Because of this, she didn't kill any of the more than a dozen people who attacked the Mortal Immortal Sect.
