Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 1220: No Matter Who It Is
Tian Hen was sure that even Xia Ruoyin couldn't take away the cosmic dao principles. Since they weren't here now, Xia Ruoyin must have lied.
Mo Wuji waved his hand, "She didn't lie to you. There was indeed a cosmic dao principle here, but it was extracted."
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Tian Hen breathed a slight sigh of relief, but then became puzzled. Why didn't Mo Wuji leave even though the cosmic dao principle had been extracted?
Mo Wuji indeed didn't leave. He sensed a familiar aura. Even though the cosmic dao principle had been extracted, a damaged cave abode treasure remained here. Despite the passage of many years, he still had a faint impression of it.
After scanning the cave abode treasure with his spiritual will for a full ten breaths, Mo Wuji suddenly stepped into the void chasm.
"Master..." Tian Hen exclaimed in alarm, but Kun Yun beside him pulled Tian Hen back and shook his head, saying, "Tian Hen, you're not bad, you actually recognized Brother Mo as your master. However, you don't understand Brother Mo. Brother Mo doesn't like others being long-winded and doesn't want people interfering by his side."
"Brother Mo?" Tian Hen pointed at Kun Yun and cursed, "You were just calling him Grandpa Mo, and now he's Brother Mo. Do you have no shame?"
Kun Yun chuckled, "Brother Mo and I are brothers in life and death, you wouldn't understand. I called him Grandpa Mo, and I even call him Brother Mo. Do you know what brothers in life and death are? We're just joking with each other. It's like Brother Mo used to call me Brother Kun Yun, Senior, and so on... Forget it, you wouldn't understand. The relationship between Brother Mo and me is something you can't understand. It's an ironclad friendship, otherwise, do you think Brother Mo would offend the Gluttonous Eater Gang for me? Hehe."
How could Tian Hen not understand Kun Yun's meaning? This guy wanted him to address Mo Wuji as a brother, while he himself would call Mo Wuji master. Clearly, he was telling Tian Hen not to put on any airs of a Sage here.
Although he was so frustrated that he wanted to vomit blood, Tian Hen could only sigh silently, not daring to talk too much with Kun Yun, the ant in his eyes. He hadn't completely figured out the relationship between Mo Wuji and Kun Yun yet. If their relationship was too good, offending Kun Yun wouldn't be a good thing.
"Don't worry, since you're following Brother Mo, I'll look after you," Kun Yun said with a chuckle, patting Tian Hen on the shoulder.
"Kun Yun, I am a God Throne Sage, you are just a True God. Watch your actions." Tian Hen's expression turned gloomy.
He had acknowledged Mo Wuji as his master, but not just anyone could pat him on the shoulder. After all, he was still a God Throne Sage.
Kun Yun said earnestly, "Do you know why I have such a good relationship with Brother Mo? Because I'm the one who takes the blame for Brother Mo. Brother Mo usually does things... uh, does things that he doesn't really want to do, and pushes them all to me..."
What kind of person was Tian Hen? He didn't even wait for Kun Yun to finish before realizing, "Friend Kun Yun, I understand now. So, you really are Master Mo's friend."
"Yes, yes, you guessed right... or rather, you said it right. My friendship with Brother Mo is the best kind of friendship in the universe. Back then, Brother Mo found the God Burial Cave all by himself for my sake and specially went to teach Min Yuan a lesson. I wanted to give him a thousand Grand Creation Spiritual Veins, but he insisted on not taking them, alas..."
Tian Hen interrupted Kun Yun again, "You are the one who takes the blame for Master Mo, I know. You said it yourself just now. No wonder Master Mo asked about the Gluttonous Eater Pot as soon as we met. So that pot is the master's, I even thought it was yours."
Kun Yun wanted to retort, but when he thought that the pot couldn't be retrieved anyway, he simply said, "You're right, that pot is the master's, I was just carrying it for him."
Mo Wuji said he was going to take back the pot, but Kun Yun knew that Mo Wuji definitely couldn't take it back, not even with Tian Hen. The Sacred Dao Assembly was not comparable to the Gluttonous Eater Gang. Even a hundred Gluttonous Eaters would only be able to cower in the Sacred Dao Assembly.
Tian Hen nodded solemnly and said, "So the Gluttonous Eater Pot is the master's."
After saying this, Tian Hen said nothing more. Kun Yun didn't know how strong Mo Wuji's methods were, and definitely thought that Mo Wuji couldn't snatch back the Gluttonous Eater Pot. But Tian Hen knew very well that he, Tian Hen, might not be able to snatch back the Gluttonous Eater Pot, but Mo Wuji definitely could.
He was also sure that after Mo Wuji snatched back the pot, Kun Yun would definitely want it. He wanted Kun Yun to say these words to extinguish Kun Yun's thoughts.
The master had even given him the Heaven and Earth Furnace, who knew if he would give the Gluttonous Eater Pot to Kun Yun?
In fact, Tian Hen was overthinking it. Mo Wuji gave him the Heaven and Earth Furnace, but he would never give the snatched Gluttonous Eater Pot to Kun Yun.
Although his relationship with Kun Yun was not bad, it wasn't as close as Kun Yun had said. Otherwise, he would have already given the Seven Buddha Shovel to Kun Yun. As for helping Kun Yun deal with Min Yuan in the God's Repose Land, it was just something he did conveniently. At the same time, he also asked Kun Yun to pay him two hundred Grand Creation Spiritual Veins as compensation. Kun Yun's bragging that he gave Mo Wuji a thousand Grand Creation Spiritual Veins and Mo Wuji didn't want them was complete nonsense.
......
Mo Wuji stood deep within this void chasm, staring at a damaged cave abode in front of him. There were two skeletons in the cave abode.
He slowly stepped into the cave abode and bent down to touch the two skeletons. At this moment, his eyes were a little red.
Because he knew who these two skeletons were: his aunt Mo Xiangtong, and the other must be Shiyi Niang.
Back then, Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang disappeared with an immortal mansion in Tianhai, and there was no news of them. Only today did Mo Wuji see them, but what he saw were their skeletons. Only today did Mo Wuji understand why Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang were able to obtain the immortal mansion.
After a long silence, he raised his head, his eyes full of killing intent.
This was not an immortal mansion at all, but a God Mansion. To be precise, it was a mid-grade divine artifact.
The reason why this divine artifact could be obtained by Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang was not because Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang were powerful enough to make the divine artifact recognize them as its master, but because this mid-grade divine artifact was originally meant to be obtained by two people who were best off not having cultivated before.
Because this mid-grade divine artifact concealed something. If Mo Wuji didn't know what it was before, now as soon as he entered this mid-grade divine artifact cave abode, he knew that a cosmic dao principle was once hidden inside.
In this mid-grade divine artifact cave abode, there were endless cultivation resources, as well as a cosmic dao principle. No matter how poor Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang's aptitude was, they could easily cultivate to the point of ascending to the Immortal Realm, and then easily cultivate to the point of ascending to the God Realm.
Others could not ascend, but they definitely could, because of this cosmic dao principle.
The incomplete Ascension Rules would not affect those who possessed cosmic dao principles. Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang had been trapped in this mid-grade divine artifact cave abode all along. The only thing they could do was to constantly cultivate, and then constantly ascend with the divine artifact.
The ultimate goal was to ascend to this void realm. At that time, their value would disappear. Because that cosmic dao principle was brought by them from a mortal realm that even a Saint could not go to.
The strong person who left that mid-grade divine artifact cave abode didn't want the mid-grade divine artifact, nor did he want to train two disciples. Instead, he wanted the person who obtained the mid-grade divine artifact to bring the cosmic dao principle to this place.
Now that Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang had brought the divine artifact cave abode, their mission was complete.
"Hoo!" Mo Wuji exhaled a breath of frustration and looked up at the void. Whoever used his aunt Mo Xiangtong and his friend Shiyi Niang's lives to do things, he would never let them go.
Mo Wuji closed his eyes. Even though that cosmic dao principle had been extracted, he could still sense the aura of the cosmic dao principle.
He had obtained three cosmic dao principles, and even Luo's cosmic dao principles might not be as many as his. As long as he found a little bit of the aura of the cosmic dao principle, he could find out who used Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang.
Two hours passed, and Mo Wuji suddenly opened his eyes. His spiritual will passed through one void realm after another. Even when his sea of consciousness was aching, he still didn't stop his spiritual will. Finally, his spiritual will landed outside a void suspended domain.
Outside that void suspended domain, there were a few large characters carved on it: Universe Sacred Dao Assembly.
Mo Wuji withdrew his spiritual will, and the killing intent also slowly subsided. Universe Sacred Dao Assembly, he originally wanted to go there. Now he even more wanted to go there. Whoever it was, he would definitely kill them.
Taking out two jade boxes, Mo Wuji picked up the bones of Mo Xiangtong and Shiyi Niang into the jade boxes, and then raised his hand to take away this damaged cave abode. Mo Wuji landed outside the chasm.
"Master, did you find out who took the Dao Principle?" Tian Hen saw Mo Wuji come out and quickly came up and asked respectfully.
Mo Wuji nodded, "Found it, let's go, we're going to the Universe Sacred Dao Assembly."
Although Mo Wuji's tone sounded very calm, Tian Hen and Kun Yun both felt a cold killing intent.
"Good, good, Brother Mo, I just came out of the Universe Sacred Dao Assembly, I'll lead the way," Kun Yun said with a smile.
