Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 1171: May I Come In?
Xi Nianmo was very 'fortunate' to find the location where Fei Dao Ren disappeared using formation patterns. With Xi Nianmo's God King realm cultivation, she quickly used her divine sense to perceive the entrance of this formation pattern. With just two formation flags, the entrance was opened.
Xi Nianmo's divine sense did not detect Mo Wuji. She hesitated about whether to enter. However, after only a few breaths, Xi Nianmo stepped into the entrance, trusting that Mo Wuji wouldn't deceive her.
When Mo Wuji gave her the newly hatched God Domain Nest Jade Token, he didn't want anything in return. If she hadn't accidentally encountered Mo Wuji this time, she wouldn't have known that Mo Wuji would help her enter the God King realm.
A strong dizziness came, making Xi Nianmo feel that the entrance was a spatial portal.
In a short time, Xi Nianmo landed on the ground. She stopped and looked back in a bit of panic. All traces behind her had disappeared.
In other words, even though she was a God King, she had no way to get out now unless she could find another void formation gate leading to the God Domain.
Xi Nianmo not only didn't find the exit behind her and the traces of her entry, but she also didn't sense Mo Wuji's presence. Xi Nianmo didn't move. Since Mo Wuji didn't come over, she was sure she wasn't a match for Qi Qian.
Mo Wuji had naturally followed long ago. His concealment abilities and Transformation of the Fetus could be said to be unmatched even by Sages.
As soon as he entered the ruins, Mo Wuji knew that he was likely no longer in the God Domain. That void teleportation gate was extraordinary; at least he couldn't set it up yet.
After stepping through the formation gate, Mo Wuji's divine sense immediately swept over Fei Dao Ren. He not only saw Fei Dao Ren but also saw Qi Qian, who was imprisoned in an iron cage.
This might sound ridiculous, but Qi Qian was indeed sealed in a room made of iron bars. Moreover, the iron bars of the iron cage were only half the thickness of a little finger. The distance between the iron bars even exceeded half a foot.
Yet, this iron bar room with half-foot gaps had trapped a Harmony God Layer 4 expert. If Mo Wuji guessed correctly, this Harmony God Layer 4 fellow should be Qi Qian, as Xi Nianmo mentioned.
Qi Qian was not just newly entering the Harmony God realm; he had already entered the mid-stage of Harmony God.
The reason Mo Wuji hadn't shown himself wasn't because of this little Qi Qian, but because he vaguely sensed that there was an even stronger presence here. The aura of this stronger presence was even more powerful than that of Fang Shiyu, whom he had killed before.
Mo Wuji wouldn't reveal himself until he found the location of this even stronger presence.
Xi Nianmo waited for a long time but didn't see Mo Wuji appear, so she could only proceed cautiously. Her divine sense wasn't as strong as Mo Wuji's, and she didn't have a Storage Divine Meridian. Due to the divine sense restrictions and imprisonment here, she walked for more than ten zhang and turned past a stone door before she saw the iron cage room where Qi Qian was imprisoned.
Xi Nianmo immediately stopped. She calmly looked at Qi Qian. She had just entered the God King Layer 1 and felt that Qi Qian's cultivation was definitely not Harmony God Layer 1. This meant that Qi Qian was much stronger than she had imagined.
At this moment, Xi Nianmo became calm instead. She had spent these years seeking revenge. Now that she saw her enemy was so powerful, even if she escaped, what could she do? She wouldn't be able to take revenge in this lifetime.
"Nephew is truly blessed with heaven-defying talent. How many years has it been? Nephew has already stepped into the God King level. Congratulations." When Qi Qian saw Xi Nianmo, the surprise in his eyes flashed by, and he laughed loudly.
Xi Nianmo stared coldly at Qi Qian. "You were the one who killed the entire Lei Jian Mountain Manor, right? You killed my father, and you slaughtered everyone in my Xi family."
Qi Qian laughed again and said, "We cultivators will eventually die and disappear. They just took a step earlier. Why be so attached, Nephew? I admire you very much. It hasn't been long since we last met, and not only has your cultivation stepped into the God King realm, but you are also so calm in the face of danger, not even putting your own safety first."
Xi Nianmo said lightly, "Because I already knew what your disciple, Fei Dao Ren, brought me here for. It's the thing my father sealed here, and you need the bloodline of my Xi family to open the seal."
"You knew?" Qi Qian was startled and swept his divine sense out. The divine sense was indeed limited here, but that was only in terms of cultivation. Qi Qian was at Harmony God Layer 4, so his divine sense naturally swept further than Xi Nianmo's.
He quickly calmed down, as Xi Nianmo had come alone, without anyone else following.
Qi Qian said admiringly, "Nephew also knows the art of psychological warfare. I almost fell for your tricks just now. Of course, even if you deceived me, it wouldn't be of any use. I heard that you recently used a Creation God Spiritual Vein?"
"Yes, Master, I saw with my own eyes that her friend took out a Creation God Spiritual Vein for her to cultivate, and she should have entered the God King realm in just over ten days," Fei Dao Ren quickly said from the side.
"That's not right." Xi Nianmo shook her head.
Fei Dao Ren shrieked, "It's useless even if you don't admit it. I saw it with my own eyes."
Xi Nianmo said lightly, "I'm not denying it, but it's because I not only cultivated on the Creation God Spiritual Vein but also used a God Jade Pill."
Qi Qian's face became somewhat gloomy. He pointed to a Yin-Yang fish formation pattern in the corner of the iron cage room and said, "I need Nephew to stand on it. I need some of Nephew's blood essence for use."
Xi Nianmo snorted. Even if she wasn't a match for a mid-stage Harmony God, she wouldn't be captured without a fight. Before she could summon her magical treasure, a handprint grabbed towards her.
Qi Qian was trapped in this strange iron cage room and couldn't come out, but he could use his divine sense and extend his divine essence handprint.
When Xi Nianmo saw Qi Qian's handprint grabbing towards her, she wanted to retreat in panic. At God King Layer 1, she didn't think she could block a divine essence handprint from a Harmony God Layer 4.
Xi Nianmo only took a step back and found that she couldn't retreat even half a step. The space in the room was completely imprisoned.
Before Xi Nianmo could summon her magical treasure, she was surprised to find that Qi Qian's handprint had actually paused and then disappeared into smoke.
"Who is it?" Qi Qian's expression changed drastically, and he shouted in shock.
Mo Wuji's figure and voice appeared at the same time. "Just passing by to buy soy sauce. By the way, when you bastard destroyed Lei Jian Mountain Manor back then, I was almost killed by you too. So after hearing that you were here, I made a special detour to come here and buy some soy sauce."
"Brother Mo!" Seeing Mo Wuji's figure appear, Xi Nianmo cried out in surprise. The anxiety in her heart finally subsided. Mo Wuji's appearance here, unnoticed even by Qi Qian, indicated that his cultivation couldn't be too weak.
"Who are you?" Qi Qian's heart sank completely. He felt that Mo Wuji's strength was no less than his own.
Even if Mo Wuji's strength was below his own, the fact that he could block his handprint put him in an invincible position. He couldn't get out and could only use his divine essence handprint, while the other party could move freely.
Fei Dao Ren quickly shouted, "Master, this is the person who has the Creation God Spiritual Vein. I saw him take out a Creation God Spiritual Vein and throw it on the ground."
Qi Qian snorted, "Disgraceful thing, you were followed here without even knowing it."
When he said this, he completely forgot that he hadn't noticed Mo Wuji's presence either until Mo Wuji came out himself.
"It doesn't matter who I am. You just need to know that you almost killed me back then, and today I'm here to collect the debt. I also heard that there's a piece of Breathing Soil here. Can you show me where it is?" As Mo Wuji spoke, his divine sense deliberately swept around randomly.
He said this because his Storage Divine Meridian divine sense hadn't seen any Breathing Soil when he came in.
This made him a little worried that if the Breathing Soil had been taken by the strong expert hiding in the dark, he might have come for nothing.
These experts each had some means of escape, and Mo Wuji wasn't sure he could imprison the other party. Moreover, this was still the other party's territory.
Hearing Mo Wuji's words, Qi Qian sneered in his heart. He suddenly slapped a formation pattern on the edge of the iron house, and a creaking sound came out.
A stone table appeared behind the iron house. On the stone table, there was a wooden box. The wooden box had Dao runes flowing on its surface and seemed to be imprisoned by a powerful restriction.
As long as one entered the iron house, they could reach out and grab the wooden box on the stone table.
"If you dare to enter this iron house like me, you can naturally grab the Breathing Soil. That's right, the Breathing Soil is in the wooden box," Qi Qian said with mockery.
He was sure that Mo Wuji wouldn't dare to enter the iron house.
The gaps between the iron bars of this iron house were so large that it would be easy for Mo Wuji to enter.
"Brother Mo, don't go in!" Xi Nianmo cried out in alarm when she saw Mo Wuji walking over.
Mo Wuji smiled slightly. "It's okay, I can go in."
After saying this, Mo Wuji really walked towards the iron cage house and stepped inside.
(That's all for today's update, good night friends!)
