Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 944: Taking Action to Rescue

The most recent dojo of the Forgotten River Dao Gate was located right before the sect.

It was more of an open-air plaza market than a dojo, with numerous merchants setting up shop. The Forgotten River Dojo was crowded with people every day.

The reason for this was that the Forgotten River Dao Gate was too large and had too many disciples. Many disciples, in order to improve their strength, would accept sect tasks and then post them in the Forgotten River Dojo for rogue cultivators to take on.

Over time, this formed an open-air market. Various rogue cultivators gathered here, in addition to those doing business, there were also some who wanted to join the Forgotten River Dao Gate.

Of course, the most numerous were the outer sect servants of the Forgotten River Dao Gate. The purpose of these servants was to clean up the garbage for the Forgotten River Dao Gate, plant divine grains for the outer sect disciples, and perform various miscellaneous tasks.

Mo Wuji was one of these outer sect servants. This was the thirteenth month since Mo Wuji learned that Qu You was locked on the Punishment Dao Cliff by the Forgotten River Dao Gate, and also the second month since Mo Wuji became an outer sect servant. He had already made the arrangements he needed to make, and now he had to take the last two steps: rescue Qu You, and then escape.

In two months, Mo Wuji had already investigated all the information he needed.

The Forgotten River Dojo belonged to the Forgotten River Dao Gate, but it was located outside the sect, so the Punishment Dao Cliff could not be seen from the Forgotten River Dojo.

As an outer sect servant, Mo Wuji could occasionally enter the protective array of the Forgotten River Dao Gate. Since Mo Wuji joined as a servant, he had entered the protective array twice.

It was said that once you entered the protective array of the Forgotten River Dao Gate, you could see the Punishment Dao Cliff.

The Punishment Dao Cliff of the Forgotten River Dao Gate was used to warn the entire sect, so from within the protective array, the disciples locked on the Punishment Dao Cliff could be seen clearly, except from the Servants Hall.

Mo Wuji worked in the Servants Hall. To say he worked there was an exaggeration, it would be more accurate to say that Mo Wuji was a helper outside the Servants Hall, and could occasionally go inside.

Because the servants in the Servants Hall were not considered disciples of the Forgotten River Dao Gate, it was the only place where the Punishment Dao Cliff could not be seen. Moreover, the jade token of an outer sect servant could only be used within a certain range, and exceeding this range would trigger the protective array alarm.

Today, Mo Wuji would enter the protective array of the Forgotten River Dao Gate for the third time. His task was to deliver twenty or so bundles of Spirit Soothing Incense seedlings to the Servants Hall with two other servant disciples.

The seedlings of the Spirit Soothing Incense had to be in constant contact with the Five Elements rules of the world, with vital energy, in order to have a high survival rate. Once put into a storage ring, the survival rate of the Spirit Soothing Incense would drop rapidly.

Mo Wuji had also decided that he had to take action today. Before going to deliver the Spirit Soothing Incense seedlings, Mo Wuji first took out a teleportation talisman in a secluded place in the Forgotten River Dojo, and then quickly placed a small jade bottle, which had been densely covered with restrictions to isolate its aura, into the teleportation talisman, and then activated the teleportation talisman.

These isolation restrictions could isolate the aura in the jade bottle for one or two breaths of time. In one or two breaths, the jade bottle had already been teleported away.

The space fluctuated slightly, the teleportation talisman turned to ashes, and the jade bottle within disappeared without a trace.

After doing this, Mo Wuji went to accept the task as if nothing had happened. He received eight bundles of Spirit Soothing Incense seedlings and went to the Servants Hall of the Forgotten River Dao Gate with two other servants.

The disciple outside the protective array of the Forgotten River Dao Gate simply checked the servant jade tokens of Mo Wuji and the other two, and let them in.

As they were about to reach the entrance of the Servants Hall, Mo Wuji suddenly stopped, a look of anxiety appearing on his face.

"Fa Mu, what's wrong?" One of the outer sect servants who came with Mo Wuji saw Mo Wuji's expression and stopped to ask.

Mo Wuji said with a troubled expression, "My Dao Companion has run into some trouble, I need to go there immediately."

After speaking, Mo Wuji put down the Spirit Soothing Incense seedlings on his back and said anxiously, "Brother Ding, please help me deliver these. I don't want the reward for this time, just give it to you."

Before he finished speaking, Mo Wuji turned around anxiously and rushed out of the Forgotten River Dao Gate.

"Ding Li, what Fa Mu did is a bit against the rules. Once we enter the Forgotten River Dao Gate, we can't leave halfway for any reason," another servant said with some fear.

The outer sect servant named Ding Li smiled and said, "Fa Mu just arrived, he doesn't know many things. We can just tell him when we get back, one time won't be a big deal. Besides, he must be anxious about his Dao Companion. We're almost there, let's each add a few bundles and help him deliver them."

"That's right," the other servant nodded, not thinking too much about it.

...

As soon as Mo Wuji left, he activated a stealth talisman. He naturally didn't want to go out, but secretly left the vicinity of the Servants Hall.

Outer sect servants were not allowed to run around in the sect, as there were restrictions everywhere.

Even though Mo Wuji was now a Rank 3 God Array Master, he didn't dare to run around randomly. He was currently hiding on the periphery of a concealment restriction.

From this place, he could clearly see the situation at the top of the Punishment Dao Cliff.

At this moment, Mo Wuji didn't need to use his Spiritual Eye or Divine Sense, he could clearly see Qu You drooping her head, locked on the Punishment Dao Cliff.

That's right, it was Qu You.

Calming his heart slowly, Mo Wuji took out a jade token and hung it on his waist. This was the jade token of an inner sect disciple of the Forgotten River Dao Gate, the disciple that he had killed.

This jade token could enter the depths of the Forgotten River Dao Gate, but Mo Wuji didn't want to enter the depths of the Forgotten River Dao Gate. He carefully approached the Punishment Dao Cliff.

The Punishment Dao Cliff was used to punish sect disciples, it was a place meant to serve as a warning to everyone. In order for everyone to be able to see it, the Punishment Dao Cliff was also located on the outermost periphery of the sect, which created conditions for Mo Wuji to approach it.

...

In a swamp far away from the Forgotten River Dao Gate, a ray of light suddenly fell. Following this, a jade bottle appeared here. The jade bottle did not stay here for long before the restrictions on its exterior began to collapse. Half an incense stick later, the teleportation array was activated again, and the jade bottle was teleported away once more.

In the Guest Hall on the peak of Forgotten River Peak, God King Li Tian, God King Mo Hai, and God King Yin Mu were engaged in a discussion on the Dao.

Even though Mo Wuji, whom they were waiting for, had not come for nearly a year, God King Li Tian was not worried. To a God King, a year was no different from the time it took to eat a meal.

"Actually, in my Divine Domain, there have been instances of competition for divine positions..." God King Li Tian, who was speaking freely, suddenly stopped and stood up, a look of disbelief in his eyes. Following God King Li Tian were God King Mo Hai and God King Yin Mu, who, like God King Li Tian, were also looking into the void in disbelief at this moment.

After a moment, the three of them said almost in unison, "Primordial Mortal Breath..."

"Primordial Mortal Breath has actually appeared!" God King Mo Hai's voice was somewhat excited.

Mo Wuji didn't understand Primordial Mortal Breath, and simply used it like a rat eating barley, to heal his injuries and cultivate. But to God Kings, what was the use of Primordial Mortal Breath beyond healing injuries? Healing injuries was the most wasteful way to use it. Primordial Mortal Breath was a treasure that could be used to condense one's own world of rules and break through the God King realm. To God Kings, the value of Primordial Mortal Breath exceeded that of a Chaos Divine Lattice.

The sudden appearance of Primordial Mortal Breath in the Divine Domain made it impossible for the God Kings to remain seated.

"Let's go, let's go take a look." As God King Li Tian spoke, his figure flashed and he disappeared without a trace. God King Mo Hai and God King Yin Mu followed closely behind God King Li Tian, and quickly disappeared.

After the God Kings disappeared, more than ten World Gods of the Forgotten River Dao Gate also sensed the Primordial Mortal Breath. Without any hesitation, everyone rushed out of their seclusion and towards the location where the Primordial Mortal Breath appeared.

At this moment, it wasn't just the Forgotten River Dao Gate. Almost all the experts in the Divine Domain who could sense the Primordial Mortal Breath rushed towards the swamp that Mo Wuji had designated for the placement of the Primordial Mortal Breath. If anyone knew that Mo Wuji possessed Primordial Mortal Breath, there would be no place for Mo Wuji to exist in the heavens or on earth.

Mo Wuji was also helpless. The reason he used the teleportation array to teleport the Primordial Mortal Breath was because the aura of the Primordial Mortal Breath would overflow and be detected as soon as it appeared. Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to set up the teleportation array at all. He could have just placed the Primordial Mortal Breath in a hidden location, and then shattered the jade bottle at the appropriate time.

Seeing streams of light disappearing from the various peaks of the Forgotten River Dao Gate, Mo Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. That God King Yin Mu should have left, right? As long as the God Kings left, he would have a chance of success.

Mo Wuji didn't know that the Primordial Mortal Breath he had taken out was too shocking. At this moment, not to mention the God Kings, even the World Gods and some powerful Divine Lords were madly pouring into the swamp where he had sent the Primordial Mortal Breath.

In Mo Wuji's estimation, it would take him two months to get to that swamp, but for a God King, it might only take half a day, and at most a day to return.

To be on the safe side, Mo Wuji controlled the time he would spend rescuing Qu You to within half an incense stick. He needed to take Qu You away within half an incense stick, otherwise, he would have to leave on his own first.

With the departure of numerous experts from the Forgotten River Dao Gate, things went so smoothly that Mo Wuji himself could hardly believe it.

With the World God experts leaving the sect, his Rank 3 stealth talisman would be undetectable by Divine Lords under normal circumstances.

This made the bottles of highly poisonous venom that Mo Wuji had painstakingly obtained useless. The venom was something Mo Wuji had prepared long ago. As long as someone blocked him in front of Qu You, he would release the venom directly.

His venom might not be able to deal with World Gods, but it could at least block Divine Lords for a while.

Now that the experts of the Forgotten River Dao Gate had all gone to snatch the Primordial Mortal Breath, Mo Wuji was not in a hurry. He spent a full one or two hours breaking open the Rank 3 God Restriction on the Punishment Dao Cliff, and then entered the Punishment Dao Cliff without any mishaps.

After entering the Punishment Dao Cliff, under the influence of Wind Shifting, Mo Wuji landed in front of Qu You in just a few breaths.
