Chapter 1054: Home of A Path Integration Realm Sea Beast
The three members of the Sorcerer Clan clearly hadn’t expected anyone to actually come over at this time. Their lives were at stake and when they saw Mo Wen, they grasped the last straw and frantically called out for help. All three of them were injured. Even though they had been escaping at their maximum speed, they couldn’t escape from the seven-headed sea beast.
The sea beasts were not dim-witted. In terms of speed, they were definitely fast. In terms of remarkable power, they were certainly formidable. Mo Wen had experienced first-hand some of the remarkable powers demonstrated by the sea beasts. Not only were their remarkable powers peculiar, some remarkable powers demonstrated by some special sea beasts were akin to small path remarkable powers.
Of course, the assumption was that such sea beasts did not encounter freaks such as Mo Wen. His illusionary spirit divine wings replica was a treasure that was close to being a sacred treasure. Once he activated it, he could fly around in the sky and traverse more than a thousand miles in an instant.
Moreover, he had cultivated the illusionary spirit release technique.
The illusionary spirit release technique was a medium path remarkable power. It was divided into five levels. Once he cultivated it to the fifth level, its speed was comparable to a Path Integration Realm cultivator.
Once cultivated to the first level, its speed was close to that of the Supreme Profundity Realm. At the second level, its speed was enough to be comparable to an intermediate stage Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator. If he could cultivate it to the third level, his speed could approach that of the Divine Illusionary Realm.
Up to this point, Mo Wen had already cultivated the illusionary spirit release technique to the second level. Used together with the illusionary spirit divine wings, even a later stage Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator could not catch up with him if they were not proficient in speed.
Hence, even if the sea beasts’ levels of cultivation were higher than Mo Wen’s, he could still play around with them. They could not even touch a hair on his body.
However, the three members of the Sorcerer Clan did not have abilities like Mo Wen. They were almost pushed to the brink of despair by the seven-headed sea beast.
“Friend, please save us. We will surely repay your kindness handsomely,” the three members of the Sorcerer Clan urged Mo Wen continuously. They couldn’t last much longer. In their time of desperation, they didn’t even sense Mo Wen’s aura carefully. Had they noticed that Mo Wen’s current aura was only at the Golden Elixir Realm, God knew what expressions they would show.
However, they didn’t worry about such a predicament at all. It was because people who dared to venture into these territorial waters were definitely not people who were only at the Golden Elixir Realm. Even Tide Changing Realm or Supreme Profundity Realm cultivators didn’t dare to venture too deep in these Moji Territorial Waters.
Moreover, when Mo Wen saw the seven-headed sea beast, not only was he not afraid of it, he stood calmly at his spot, showing no intention of running away.
These people were speaking the language of the Sorcerer Clan; it was different from human languages. However, before Mo Wen came to the Ancestral Sorcerer Battlefield, he had mastered all the languages of the Sorcerer Clan, including the modern Sorcerer Clan dialects and the ancient Sorcerer Clan language. Therefore, it was not a problem for him to communicate with them.
Rumor has it that during the Ancient Age, the members of the Sorcerer Clan were humans too. Or it could be said that the current Sorcerer Clan was no longer the Sorcerer Clan of the Immemorial Age.
The Immemorial Sorcerer Clan was born during the Immemorial Age and grew prosperous in the Primeval Age. However, to fall from the pinnacle of one’s power was an unchanging law of the world. The Immemorial Sorcerer Clan gradually waned during the Primeval Age. In the end, they were completely eradicated and stepped down from the stage of history.
Among the current Sorcerer Clan, there were most likely not many members of the Immemorial Sorcerer Clan left. The history of the current Sorcerer Clan began during the Ancient Age.
After the Immemorial Sorcerer Clan was eradicated, the Ancient Age humans found some of the inheritances of the Immemorial Sorcerer Clan so that they may obtain greater power. They practiced the secret techniques of the Sorcerer Clan with their human bodies. Due to the effects of the Sorcerer Clan’s secret techniques, the bodies of the humans began to warp into hundreds and thousands of bizarre forms. They then gradually became the current Sorcerer Clan.
Among the three members of the Sorcerer Clan, one had the lower body of a snake that shone with evil-looking runes. Another had the body of a human and the head of a beast with a figure as huge as a small mountain. The last had a few heads and even had eyes growing on his arms.
Even the most bizarre-looking member of the Sorcerer Clan was not regarded as out of the ordinary. The members of the Sorcerer Clan were used to these deformities. In their pursuit of power, they did not mind what their bodies ended up morphing into.
Essentially, the Sorcerer Clan and humans stemmed from the same roots. However, they walked on different paths.
Mo Wen hesitated for a bit before deciding to rescue the three members of the Sorcerer Clan. They might know the situation in these territorial waters. After entering this part of the territorial waters, Mo Wen felt something was off. However, he was not a denizen of the Ziya Territorial Waters and knew nothing about this place.
Beams of golden flame Sword Qi flew out and instantly sliced the seven-headed sea beast apart. It was just a Primordial Soul Realm sea beast. For Mo Wen, killing it was no different from him squashing an ant.
The three members of the Sorcerer Clan, who were originally fighting for their lives to stand against the sea beast, froze on their spots. They looked in astonishment as the corpse of the seven-headed sea beast fell into the ocean in pieces.
In the blink of an eye, or rather even before they could blink, the ferocious seven-headed sea beast became a shredded corpse instantly.
“Thank you, senior, for saving our lives. We are eternally grateful. If you have any requests, feel free to ask.”
A member of the Sorcerer Clan came to his senses and bowed respectfully to Mo Wen. His eyes were full of horror and panic. The foreign youth was a senior with a level of cultivation that was frightening beyond comparison—he could most likely kill them with a mere thought.
The other two members of the Sorcerer Clan also came to their senses. They frantically bowed respectfully to Mo Wen, subserviently.
In the Ziya Territorial Waters, it had always been the survival of the fittest. The strong could do as they pleased. As long as one was powerful enough, they could do anything they wanted. If some low-level cultivators such as themselves caused these high-ranking cultivators to be dissatisfied, they might result in themselves being killed.
“What is this place?” Mo Wen asked indifferently.
“Senior, do you not know?” A member of the Sorcerer Clan asked in astonishment. He then managed to respond. He trembled slightly in shock and then immediately said, “This place is the Moji Territorial Waters.”
Whatever the senior asked, he would naturally answer. How was he qualified to ask any questions? A high-ranking cultivator like Mo Wen must have trained for many years. The older these cultivators were, the more bizarrely they acted. Only God knew if Mo Wen would kill people for responding slowly.
“Moji Territorial Waters? How is it different from the other territorial waters?” Mo Wen asked calmly.
The three members of the Sorcerer Clan were astonished again. Did this senior truly not know what place the Moji Territorial Waters were?
“Senior, the Moji Territorial Waters are one of the ancient ruins in the Ziya Territorial Waters. The geography here is special and there are many sea beasts living here…”
Mo Wen found out that these Moji Territorial Waters were a special place in the Ziya Territorial Waters. Rumor has it that in ancient times, there lived a large sea beast at the Path Integration Realm. The sea beast occupied these Moji Territorial Waters and its power was endless. It also frantically cultivated its strength in these territorial waters and transplanted the various treasures it found to these waters.
The large sea beast even dug up four to five high-grade vital pulses from other places and transplanted them in these territorial waters, turning this place into a paradise for cultivating.
Vital pulses were the miraculous ley lines that could produce Vital Qi. These sorts of ley lines could endlessly produce the energy of the heavens and earth. They were precious beyond comparison.
In the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, there were also spiritual pulses. The more spiritual pulses and the higher their grade, the more suitable a place was for cultivators to cultivate. Large sects mostly set up their bases around lands with spiritual pulses. Some even did so in sacred places where multiple spiritual pulses gathered.
The difference between the two was that spiritual pulses produced spiritual energy whereas vital pulses produced natural Vital Qi. Vital pulses most likely no longer existed in the current day Peng Lai Immortal Realm.
As for the ancient Path Integration Realm sea beast, no one knew whether it died of old age or if it was killed by humans. Either way, it was dead and left behind these territorial waters which became the ruins of a Path Integration Realm sea beast.
Such a place naturally attracted countless cultivators and sea beasts. Those four or five high-grade vital pulses alone had turned these territorial waters into a sacred place. By cultivating here, one could yield twice the result with half the effort. The home of the Path Integration Realm sea beast naturally also had many treasures. There was no end to the number of people who came here to seek treasures.
“No wonder there were so many powerful sea beasts here,” Mo Wen said as he stroked his chin.
A member of the Sorcerer Clan smiled bitterly and said, “Senior, after that Path Integration Realm sea beast died, this place was occupied by five sea beasts with great attainment at the Divine Illusionary Realm. Within a radius of a hundred million miles of these Moji Territorial Waters, all sea beasts are subordinates to these five sea beasts. There are countless sea beasts here and many are very powerful.”
“Yes, we are currently only at the edge of the Moji Territorial Waters. If we were in the inner region, it would be common to encounter Supreme Profundity Realm sea beasts and it would even be possible for Divine Illusionary Realm sea beasts to appear.” Another member of the Sorcerer Clan also laughed bitterly and said, “Senior, if you have come here by accident, you must not venture further in. It is very dangerous inside.”
Among themselves, the three members of the Sorcerer Clan had already believed that Mo Wen was an outsider who had accidentally stumbled into the Moji Territorial Waters. He might even be a cultivator who was not from the Ziya Territorial Waters. Cultivators could fly around in the sky. Some high-ranking cultivators traveled far and wide between regions. Although such cases were not common, they were not unheard of.
As for who this senior was and what his goal for coming here was, the three of them did not dare ask. How could low-level cultivators like themselves meddle in the affairs of high-ranking cultivators?
“Do you know how to get out of this area?” Mo Wen asked as he looked at the three members of the Sorcerer Clan.
Since he knew the situation of this place, it was impossible for Mo Wen to continue venturing further. He was not seeking his own death. No matter how conceited he was, he knew he would most likely be easily killed against Divine Illusionary Realm sea beasts, let alone a Divine Illusionary Realm sea beast. If he encountered a Supreme Profundity Realm sea beast that was slightly stronger, he would also need to turn tail and run. Moreover, there were actually five terrifying creatures with great attainment at the Divine Illusionary Realm living deep within these waters.
Mo Wen only wanted to follow the directions of the map to reach Yingyun City. The shortest distance between two points was a straight line. By following the straight line on the map, he could rush over to Yingyun City in the shortest amount of time. However, he had not expected such a situation to arise. Before this, he had been too optimistic. Now, he certainly had to take a detour.
“Of course, we knew the way out. We are honored to be able to serve you, senior,” the three members of the Sorcerer Clan frantically said after they glanced at each other.
How could they not tell that this senior had entered here completely by accident? He had asked them after he realized that something was off. He was unfamiliar with this place and did not know which direction to head in.
The three Sorcerer Clan cultivators led Mo Wen out of the Moji Territorial Waters. As expected, they were familiar with this place. Along the way, they encountered a few dangers. As for Mo Wen, he could easily overcome those dangers. They did not even encounter a single Tide Changing Realm sea beast. Before this, he had encountered one after another sea beast with high levels of cultivation. Their levels of cultivation also became higher and higher. He had certainly been constantly flying deeper into the Moji Territorial Waters. Thinking about it now, he could not help but pinch a cold sweat.
After inquiring further, Mo Wen found out that these three members of the Sorcerer Clan were cultivators from the neighboring territorial waters. They had lived here for generations, not far from the Moji Territorial Waters. As cultivators, the thing they needed the most but also lacked the most was naturally resources. If a cultivator did not have enough resources to cultivate with, it was almost impossible for them to develop. It was just like how a human could not possibly grow tall and strong if they did not eat.
They had come to the Moji Territorial Waters to seek treasure. Although this place was occupied by high ranking sea beasts, as the previous home of the Path Integration Realm sea beast, there were many treasures in the Moji Territorial Waters. There were many secrets and treasures hidden within it. Getting even a small item would be greatly beneficial to them. Moreover, coming here to train themselves and battle sea beasts would make it easier for them to develop. The sea beasts also had various treasures on them. For the members of the Sorcerer Clan, killing one sea beast was like attaining great wealth.
In the Immortal Cultivation world, every cultivator would have similar experiences. Although the Moji Territorial Waters were feared outside, there were many Sorcerer Clan cultivators that came here to train and seek treasure every day.
