"What do you want? Use any means you have, I, Pang Hong, am not someone who can be scared," Pang Hong said, his aura becoming violent as he heard Mo Wuji wanted to keep him here. After calming down slightly, he suspected that Mo Wuji wasn't really the sect leader of some top sect. He vaguely felt that Mo Wuji's cultivation level was likely not even at the Immortal King stage. How could a mere ant who isn't even an Immortal King dare to keep him, Pang Hong, here?

His strength had declined significantly, and no matter what Mo Wuji's true cultivation level was, Mo Wuji's combat power was not to be underestimated. Coupled with the somewhat terrifying strength of Wei Zidao, he didn't want to continue fighting.

What angered him was that he had chosen to retreat instead of continuing to fight, and yet this Mo Wuji dared to tell him to stay. Even if he, Pang Hong, was a dragon trapped in shallow waters, he wouldn't be threatened by an ant.

Pang Hong raised his hand and shot out a warning signal. In Peace Vine Mountain, everyone tried to avoid using divine sense as much as possible.

After the signal was sent, within a dozen or so breaths, dozens of figures quickly arrived, surrounding the territory of Immortal Hunt in the blink of an eye.

Wei Zidao's expression didn't change. He was different from Mo Wuji; he knew better that in Peace Vine Mountain, having a lot of people was actually useless. Once a fight started in this place, no one would fight desperately. What really mattered were the few powerhouses above the Immortal Reverent stage; the others were just spectators. His Immortal Hunt had fewer people than Devil Hand, but they had about the same number of Immortal Reverent-level experts.

Wei Zidao didn't send out a signal. At this time, the people of Immortal Hunt also came out one after another.

"Sect Leader Mo, if it can be avoided, I suggest we don't clash for now. Don't think Pang Hong just suffered a loss; in reality, this person has extremely many tricks. Even if we can kill him in the end, we will have to pay a great price. Of course, if Sect Leader Mo insists on fighting, I, Wei Zidao, will definitely stand with you," Wei Zidao transmitted to Mo Wuji in a calm voice.

Mo Wuji didn't speak. Wei Zidao's words taught him a lesson: never rely too much on power that isn't your own.

Wei Zidao's words sounded nice, but if a real fight broke out, he would definitely hold back to protect himself. If Pang Hong really fought desperately and Wei Zidao protected himself, he was likely to suffer a loss.

Shang Hegao immediately sensed the subtle atmosphere and stepped forward, saying, "Brother Pang, Sect Leader Mo, let me be a mediator. Brother Pang didn't know that the woman was Sect Leader Mo's senior apprentice sister before, and although he made some remarks, he didn't actually take action. Since everyone hasn't suffered any losses, and Sect Leader Mo has just arrived in this place, why don't both sides take a step back?

Brother Pang can cede some of Peace Vine Mountain's territory to Sect Leader Mo so that Sect Leader Mo has a place to establish himself, and Sect Leader Mo can write off the previous matters. Everyone will not offend each other from now on and live together here according to the peace principles of Peace Vine Mountain. How about that?"

After hearing Wei Zidao's words, Mo Wuji dismissed the idea of fighting. Wei Zidao was unwilling to go all out, and he definitely couldn't beat Pang Hong.

As soon as Shang Hegao finished speaking, Pang Hong said coldly, "Devil Hand has plenty of territory, but most of it is occupied by my people. If I have to cede, I can only cede the ten-mile radius near the Sword Qi Vortex at most. Other than that, not even an inch more."

Although Pang Hong's tone didn't show any weakness, these words actually indicated that he didn't want to confront Mo Wuji either, and he was taking a step back.

Everyone turned their attention to Mo Wuji, waiting for Mo Wuji's response. Whether a fight would break out now depended solely on Mo Wuji's choice. Mo Wuji turned his gaze to Fei Ling.

Fei Ling could be arrogant towards Shang Hegao, but he didn't dare to look at Pang Hong. He had been thoroughly crushed by Pang Hong, and he still had a shadow in his heart when he saw Pang Hong now.

Even though he was still afraid of Pang Hong, he didn't dare not speak when Mo Wuji looked at him. Mo Wuji was his newly recognized master. If he didn't dare to speak from the start, who would want a lackey like him?

"Sect Leader, that Sword Qi Vortex is very dangerous. In Peace Vine Mountain, the Sword Qi Vortex is also called the Death Vortex. As long as you get close to the Sword Qi Vortex, death is inevitable. Because that vortex will engulf people, and the terrifying sword qi inside will tear people to shreds, no matter how strong you are," Fei Ling explained cautiously.

Mo Wuji frowned slightly. Obviously, being close to such a place wasn't safe.

"But..." Fei Ling hesitated for a moment and continued, "As long as you don't get close to the Sword Qi Vortex, nothing will happen."

"How long has the Sword Qi Vortex been there?" Mo Wuji asked again.

"I heard that the Sword Qi Vortex was already there when Peace Vine Mountain was found, at least ten to twenty thousand years ago," Fei Ling replied quickly this time.

Mo Wuji nodded. Since the Sword Qi Vortex had existed for ten to twenty thousand years without any problems, there shouldn't be any problems. Moreover, he definitely wouldn't stay in Peace Vine Mountain for too long.

"Immortal Friend Fei Ling is right. The reason Peace Vine Mountain was discovered was because Immortal Emperor Dinghe relied on his own strength to tear apart the sword talisman that bound the Great Sword Dao and opened the restrictions outside Peace Vine Mountain. You should know that before Immortal Emperor Dinghe, no Immortal who entered Sword Prison had ever survived," Wei Zidao also agreed.

"Immortal Emperor Dinghe?" Mo Wuji had never heard of this person since he arrived. Logically, he should have known about such a big figure as soon as he came.

Shang Hegao didn't know if it was to make up for his relationship with Mo Wuji, but he took the initiative to explain, "Immortal Emperor Dinghe exhausted his strength and died after opening the hidden restrictions of Peace Vine Mountain. We benefit today entirely because of Immortal Emperor Dinghe's grace."

"Okay, I, Mo Wuji, will take this ten-mile territory," Mo Wuji said straightforwardly after understanding the situation.

Staying on Immortal Hunt's territory was like living under someone else's roof. Only having his own territory was a place to stand.

Hearing that Mo Wuji had accepted Pang Hong's territory, Wei Zidao and Shang Hegao also breathed a sigh of relief. Neither Wei Zidao nor Shang Hegao wanted a big fight here. After all, Peace Vine Mountain was their place to stand. Fighting here would directly tear apart all the crisscrossing vines of Peace Vine Mountain. Who could be sure that after these vines were destroyed, Peace Vine Mountain could still block the sword qi as before?

Pang Hong's expression was somewhat gloomy. Mo Wuji only said that he had accepted the territory Pang Hong had given him, but he didn't say that their grievances were settled. It was clear that his grievances with Mo Wuji wouldn't disappear just because of this little bit of territory. If he had known this, he really wouldn't have wanted to give up the territory.

But now that he had said the words, he couldn't go back on his word.

Wei Zidao really wanted to befriend Mo Wuji. After Mo Wuji agreed to accept the territory Pang Hong had given him, he immediately said, "Since that's the case, my ten-mile territory near the Sword Qi Vortex is also Sect Leader Mo's."

Shang Hegao was stunned. Pang Hong and Wei Zidao had both given up territory. Could he say he wouldn't give any? Not to mention that he had already offended Mo Wuji before, even if he hadn't offended Mo Wuji, it seemed easy to offend people if he, Shang Hegao, didn't give territory to Mo Wuji, this newcomer powerhouse.

Thinking of this, Shang Hegao laughed and said, "Since you two have offered ten miles of territory, I, Shang Hegao, naturally can't be stingy either. I'll also take out my ten-mile territory near the Sword Qi Vortex and give it to Sect Leader Mo."

"In that case, thank you all," Mo Wuji said politely with a cupped fist.

Pang Hong didn't want to fight him now, so he took out ten miles of territory. Wei Zidao wanted his Zhiqing Pill, so he also took out ten miles of territory. Shang Hegao couldn't pretend not to know and had no choice but to take out ten miles of territory. This meant that he had thirty miles of territory added together. This was very outrageous for someone who had just arrived in Peace Vine Mountain.

Mo Wuji wasn't a fool. These three people had their own plans for taking out the territory. But his territory was also surrounded by the three of them, which meant that if these three wanted to join forces to deal with him, the only place he could escape to was the Sword Qi Vortex.

Mo Wuji absolutely wouldn't believe it if Wei Zidao, Pang Hong, and Shang Hegao hadn't thought of this.

It was clear that even though he had strength and some foundation, in the eyes of the people in Peace Vine Mountain, he, Mo Wuji, was still an outsider.

"Everyone, I'm tired from the journey and need to reorganize my territory, so I won't stay any longer," Mo Wuji said, not afraid of the plans these three were making. Because besides not being afraid of sword qi and not having his soul harmed here, he was also a Level 6 Immortal Array Master.

He had advanced to a Level 6 Immortal Array Master before entering Sword Prison, so he could at least set up a Level 6 Immortal Array here. He had seen the territories of Devil Hand, Righteous Qi Mountain, and Immortal Hunt. Although there were some defensive arrays, they were far inferior to a Level 6 Immortal Array.

"If Sect Leader Mo needs any help, just say the word. My Immortal Hunt can't just bring out Immortal Emperors to show off, but we do have a few people who are willing to do practical things," Wei Zidao said, not forgetting to mock Devil Hand's Pang Hong.

It was really because he saw the hope of his strength recovering that he didn't want to mess up Peace Vine Mountain.

"Thank you, Immortal Friend Zidao, but it's not necessary for now," Mo Wuji said with a cupped fist before turning and leaving.

He sneered inwardly. Of course, he understood what Wei Zidao meant. He only had one sentence for Wei Zidao's thoughts: hehe, you're thinking too much.

If Wei Zidao had helped wholeheartedly to deal with Pang Hong before, he might have taken out the Zhiqing Pill for Wei Zidao. But now, don't even dream about it. The Zhiqing Pill was his, Mo Wuji's, not Wei Zidao's.

As for Wei Zidao's ten miles of territory, his four Zhiqing Pills were enough compensation. Pang Hong's territory was compensation for the threat to Han Qingru. As for Shang Hegao, Mo Wuji didn't want to have anything to do with such a two-faced fellow. His ten miles of territory could be used as an apology.

For Mo Wuji now, the most important thing was to establish his own territory and then set up a defensive array.
