Seeing Wei Zidao's disbelief, Mo Wuji simply said, "Fellow Immortal Wei, let's talk about other things later. I'm here just to form an alliance with you. After all, I probably won't be leaving in the short term. During my time in the Sword Prison…"
Before Mo Wuji could finish, Wei Zidao interrupted in a trembling voice, "Sect Leader Mo, are you saying that you can leave the Sword Prison in the future?"
Mo Wuji really didn't know if he could leave the Sword Prison, but he had plenty of ways to shock Wei Zidao. "I don't have a clue about leaving the Sword Prison right now, but I'm not worried. I believe that as long as I want to, I can eventually leave the Sword Prison, because I used some methods that are best left unsaid when I came in. On the other hand, Fellow Immortal Wei, the sword qi has severely torn your soul and primordial spirit. If you don't remedy it, it will be difficult to recover in the future."
"Sect Leader Mo, are you saying that you can repair a primordial spirit that has been torn by sword qi?" Even as an Immortal Emperor, Wei Zidao couldn't hide his emotions.
He was currently bound by a sword talisman, and his primordial spirit was scarred by the tearing of sword qi. It could be said that his strength was now less than one-thousandth of what it used to be.
For an Immortal Emperor with great power to have his strength plummet to such a level, and even have his life in danger, with restrictions on his actions, anyone would be unwilling. Mo Wuji's words about repairing the soul and primordial spirit were deeply engraved in his soul.
Mo Wuji didn't respond further. He had said what he needed to say, had been as assertive as he needed to be, and had even done a lot of subtle boasting. In fact, he was boasting.
Surrounded by four Immortal Emperors, how could he have broken through? That was because of the Great Wilderness, which was also a Great Immortal Emperor. The Great Wilderness had risked his life to help him, and later he had used the power of four experts to tear through the void and escape. Without those methods, he would have been nothing but dust.
How could Wei Zidao not understand Mo Wuji's meaning? He knew that Mo Wuji was making him choose. Mo Wuji had laid out various options. He could choose to cooperate with Mo Wuji, join the first Immortal Sect of Mo Wuji's description, the Immortal Mortal, or choose to rent a place to Mo Wuji.
Each choice signified his relationship with Mo Wuji.
Wei Zidao bowed to Mo Wuji and said sincerely, "Immortal Friend Mo, I'm just a free-spirited person and can't join the Immortal Mortal for now. But I'm willing to form an alliance with you and advance and retreat together."
At this moment, Wei Zidao had also calmed down. Mo Wuji was making these offers not to give him immortal pills to restore his soul and primordial spirit, but to see what choice he would make before deciding. He craved Mo Wuji's immortal pills to restore his soul, but unfortunately, he couldn't choose to unconditionally join Mo Wuji's sect.
Mo Wuji was also somewhat disappointed. He had originally wanted to win over Wei Zidao. If Wei Zidao joined the Immortal Mortal, as long as he could leave the Sword Prison, he was confident that he could make Wei Zidao a Great Immortal Emperor in a short time. If he could find Zhuo Ping An after that, that would be two Great Immortal Emperors. A sect with two Great Immortal Emperors could also stand up to the Great Sword Path.
Before the Thunder Sect and Great Vast Immortal Gate could react, he would first kill Yi Minghu. No matter how ruthless the Great Sword Path was, if Yi Minghu was killed, it would just be a Sword Path Immortal Gate.
Since Wei Zidao had made his choice, Mo Wuji could only stand up and say to Wei Zidao, "Immortal Friend Zidao, I hope to find a quiet place in the territory of the Immortal Hunter to heal my senior sister. After my senior sister recovers, I will go and see Immortal Friend Shang He Gao."
Mo Wuji was eager to heal Han Qingru, not only for the healing but also for something more important: Han Qingru's immortal lattice was condensed from immortal lattice stones.
This kind of immortal lattice was indeed the best choice for ordinary immortals. The immortal lattice stones were generally condensed from the sea of consciousness of ancient top experts after their fall, containing various top-level Great Dao Dao runes.
However, Mo Wuji didn't think much of it. Moreover, using this kind of immortal lattice stone to condense an immortal lattice made it easy for someone to seize control. Mo Wuji planned to completely resolve Han Qingru's immortal lattice hidden dangers after healing her.
It would be troublesome for others to resolve, but it wouldn't be troublesome for him. He had the Undying World and the Primal Chaos Genesis. If all else failed, he would let Han Qingru try to open up her meridians and cultivate.
Since he wanted to heal, he needed to find a safe place. Wei Zidao was a major overlord of Peace Vine Mountain. Choosing to cooperate with Wei Zidao to find a safe place to stay here was the best option.
"That's no problem. Within my range of two hundred feet, the erosion of sword qi is extremely weak. I'll take you there to find a place to stay." Not seeing Mo Wuji mention treating his soul and primordial spirit, Wei Zidao was a little disappointed.
Even though he was disappointed, Wei Zidao was still very enthusiastic towards Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji took out a pill and handed it to Wei Zidao, saying, "Immortal Friend Zidao, try this pill and see if it has any effect."
A single Supreme Green Pill was barely a drop in the bucket for Wei Zidao's soul and primordial spirit injuries. Mo Wuji's intention in taking out this pill was very clear. As long as Wei Zidao was interested in his Supreme Green Pill, there would be a chance to pull this Immortal Emperor who was just waiting to die into his camp.
"Thank you, Sect Leader Mo." A flash of excited excitement flickered in Wei Zidao's eyes. He grabbed the pill that Mo Wuji gave him, and swallowed it directly without even checking it. He was excited not because of the pill, but because he wanted to know if his soul and primordial spirit could really be repaired. Deep down, he was still somewhat skeptical of Mo Wuji's words.
However, Mo Wuji was very clear that Wei Zidao swallowed the pill very quickly. In fact, he scanned the Supreme Green Pill several times with his spiritual will the moment he swallowed it.
Mo Wuji didn't care about this. If it were him, he might have looked at it carefully several times before swallowing the pill.
As soon as the pill entered his mouth, Wei Zidao felt a slight buzzing sound in his sea of consciousness. Then, his throbbing soul suddenly calmed down, the pain disappeared instantly, and even his collapsing primordial spirit stabilized at this moment.
The surprise in Wei Zidao's eyes could no longer be hidden. If he had some doubts about Mo Wuji's words before, after swallowing this Supreme Green Pill, he no longer had any doubts about Mo Wuji's words.
What Mo Wuji gave him was a special-grade Supreme Green Pill. How many people in the Immortal World could get this kind of immortal pill? Not to mention that he was now in the Sword Prison, even if he was in the Immortal World, he wouldn't be able to get this kind of immortal pill.
This pill made Wei Zidao start to consider whether or not to join the Immortal Mortal. He knew that Mo Wuji would never just casually take out this kind of precious immortal pill just because he said he wanted to join the Immortal Mortal. There must be various conditions.
"Wei Zidao, my Magic Hand and your Immortal Hunter usually keep to themselves, but I, Pang Hong, won't be afraid of you." Just then, a cold voice came, and at the same time, a powerful spiritual will swept directly from the hall.
Wei Zidao's face turned a little ugly. He knew why Pang Hong dared to be so arrogant here. Fei Ling was the person Pang Hong wanted to chase after, and now that Fei Ling was here, Pang Hong obviously thought he had violated the Peace Vine Mountain agreement by harboring a traitor of the Magic Hand. What's more, the unbelievably beautiful woman in Mo Wuji's arms was what Pang Hong wanted. The reason why Pang Hong hadn't snatched her was not because he didn't care, but because he knew that after a while, this woman would take the initiative to look for him.
Now that Mo Wuji had saved this woman, and Fei Ling was following behind Mo Wuji, it would be strange if Pang Hong, who had returned from the Sword Qi River, didn't fly into a rage.
"Sect Leader Mo, please wait a moment. I'll go out and take a look." Wei Zidao snorted and walked towards the door.
Mo Wuji knew that Pang Hong was targeting Han Qingru and Fei Ling, so he naturally wouldn't wait here. "Immortal Friend Zidao, since we're cooperating, we should naturally face things together. There's no way I'll let Immortal Friend Zidao face this alone."
"Good, Sect Leader Mo is indeed not disappointing. In that case, let's go out together." Wei Zidao laughed.
…
Mo Wuji walked out of the Immortal Hunter's hall and saw six people at the door. Presumably because of the long-term erosion of sword qi, the aura of the six people was not strong. Even so, Mo Wuji could tell that at least five of these six people were Immortal Emperors. The remaining one was also a Quasi-Emperor.
He was very shocked. He had previously thought that it was already very impressive that the founders of the three major forces were Immortal Emperors, but he had actually seen six Immortal Emperors, including Wei Zidao.
Mo Wuji quickly saw that these six people seemed to be from two forces. The leader on the left should be a mid-stage Immortal Emperor. This person had long hair, was elegant, and had a hint of evil in his eyes. Mo Wuji guessed that this person was likely Pang Hong of the Magic Hand. At least two Immortal Emperors and one Quasi-Emperor were standing behind him.
On the other side, there were only two people. The leader was a fair-skinned middle-aged man, also a mid-stage Immortal Emperor. Beside him was an early-stage Immortal Emperor.
After Wei Zidao saw these six people, a shadow flashed in his eyes.
In terms of individual strength, he might be stronger than Pang Hong. But in terms of group strength, he could only contend with the Magic Hand if he joined forces with the Righteous Qi Mountain. Pang Hong's Magic Hand had a total of three Immortal Emperors and two Quasi-Emperors, and even more Immortal Lords.
The Righteous Qi Mountain had two Immortal Emperors, one was Shang He Gao, the founder of the Righteous Qi Mountain, and the other was Nie Chong An, an early-stage Immortal Emperor. Although he was a late-stage Immortal Emperor, he didn't have a single Immortal Emperor by his side, not even a Quasi-Emperor.
All along, he and Shang He Gao of the Righteous Qi Mountain had joined forces to barely form a balance with Pang Hong's Magic Hand. What did it mean for Shang He Gao to join hands with Pang Hong to come here today? If the Righteous Qi Mountain and the Magic Hand joined forces, his Immortal Hunter's days would be difficult.
"What do you two mean?" Wei Zidao's tone was somewhat cold. The two he was referring to were Pang Hong and Wei Zidao.
Pang Hong sneered, "Wei Zidao, I haven't touched you because everyone agreed. Today, you have actively provoked my Magic Hand, not only taking away my Magic Hand's traitor, but also harboring the woman I designated, hmph…"
With Pang Hong's cold snort, the killing intent outside Peace Vine Mountain seemed to permeate in.
