"Sect Master Mo, Bai Ye was one of the first to establish a foothold in Ping'an Vine Mountain, just like us. He probably foresaw that Ping'an Vine Mountain would have problems, which is why he suddenly left. Now that he's suddenly back, he probably knows that Ping'an Vine Mountain is gone and that it's safer here," Wei Zidao explained to Mo Wuji, struggling to sit up.

Who would willingly die when they could live?

Bai Ye was indeed strong and possessed a body refining technique that allowed him to survive well in Sword Prison. However, in Wei Zidao's eyes, Bai Ye was no match for Mo Wuji.

Back then, when he, Pang Hong, and Shanghe Gao, along with three other Immortal Emperors and several Quasi-Emperors, didn't dare to attack Mo Wuji's residence in Ping'an Vine Mountain, Bai Ye, relying on his strength and knowledge of array formations, dared to make a move on Mo Wuji's territory.

He was sure that as soon as Bai Ye made a move, he wouldn't be able to leave this Gobi Desert. If Mo Wuji couldn't even do this, he wouldn't have been qualified to leave Ping'an Vine Mountain unscathed.

"Ping'an Vine Mountain really had problems?" Mo Wuji asked, puzzled. As Wei Zidao had guessed, Mo Wuji didn't take Bai Ye seriously at all. Even if there were only him, in his own territory within Sword Prison, he wouldn't fear Bai Ye.

"Yes, not long ago, the vines of Ping'an Vine Mountain suddenly began to absorb the essence and souls of everyone. Except for a few individuals, Ping'an Vine Mountain is completely finished. Pang Hong and Shanghe Gao didn't escape. I lost a leg to get out. I suspect it was a heart," Wei Zidao explained. His leg was ruined, so to survive in Sword Prison, he used his remaining essence to regrow a leg. Unfortunately, before he could recover, he encountered Bai Ye.

What Cha Rui had said earlier wasn't complete. Only now did Su Zian and the others understand what had happened to Ping'an Vine Mountain. The four looked at each other, secretly grateful. If they had been any later, they wouldn't have been able to join Mo Wuji's side, let alone survive.

Mo Wuji fell silent. He was equally grateful, fortunate to have learned from his mistakes. If he were still as careless as he was when he left Tianqian Immortal City, he would have been swallowed by the vines of Ping'an Vine Mountain.

Even Wei Zidao, with his speed, was almost swallowed. Even if he were faster than Wei Zidao, it would have been difficult to escape, because he would definitely try to save Han Qingru. As long as he saved Han Qingru, he wouldn't have had a chance to escape.

"Sect Master Mo, is this your territory?" When Bai Ye saw Wei Zidao's attitude towards Mo Wuji, he knew that his calculations had overlooked someone. In any case, this Sect Master Mo seemed to be not so simple.

"That's right," Mo Wuji said, looking at Bai Ye with displeasure. Even the deceased Pang Hong was more pleasing to the eye than Bai Ye.

"Let's divide the territory in two. I only want a small part..." Bai Ye only said half the sentence before his figure flashed, grabbing directly towards Han Qingru.

He said he only wanted a small part, but in reality, he didn't plan to stay here at all. He wanted to take Han Qingru away, firstly to extract her secrets, and secondly to find someone to serve him. He said those words to provoke Mo Wuji, giving himself an opportunity in the short term.

No matter how capable Mo Wuji was, he couldn't do anything to him, Bai Ye, in other parts of Sword Prison.

Unfortunately, Mo Wuji had set up this protective array. The instant Mo Wuji stepped into the array, he activated this trapping kill formation.

Others needed array flags to activate a trapping kill formation, but Mo Wuji only needed his Storage Channel Network.

The instant Bai Ye rushed towards Han Qingru, the surrounding environment changed dramatically. A vast expanse of halberd light suddenly appeared in the space where Bai Ye was located.

How was this possible? When Bai Ye realized he was trapped in a trapping kill formation, he was shocked and couldn't believe it. He was certain that even if Mo Wuji was fast, he couldn't stop him from grabbing the woman and then retreating from the formation.

But reality exceeded his expectations. The moment he moved, the formation activated.

If Mo Wuji had only wanted to teach Bai Ye a lesson before, now that Bai Ye wanted to take Han Qingru away, Mo Wuji's killing intent surged.

As soon as the trapping kill formation locked onto Bai Ye, Mo Wuji's Half Moon Heavy Halberd came crashing down.

Bai Ye stretched out his hand and grabbed an Eight Trigrams Disc. Eight beams of colored light shot out from the eight corners of the disc, forming a thin circle. The vast expanse of halberd light from Mo Wuji's trapping kill formation bombarded this thin circle of colored light, flowing directly to one direction. In less than a breath, that direction glowed brightly. Under the intense light, a gate actually appeared in Mo Wuji's trapping kill formation.

Bai Ye sneered. He slammed the Eight Trigrams Disc towards the gate.

Mo Wuji was shocked. He never imagined that someone could break an array in this way, finding the location of the gate so easily. The gate of his trapping kill formation was indeed located where Bai Ye's Eight Trigrams Disc was shining. As long as the Eight Trigrams Disc hit the gate, his trapping kill formation would immediately be broken.

Once the trapping kill formation was broken, Mo Wuji was certain he couldn't hold Bai Ye back.

Almost at the same time as Bai Ye launched the Eight Trigrams Disc, Mo Wuji grabbed several array flags and threw them out, ignoring the halberd strike and instead throwing a punch.

"Boom!" A violent tremor shook the area. People outside the trapping kill formation even thought the place had been turned upside down. However, all they could see was a gray haze, and they couldn't see Mo Wuji and Bai Ye. They could only sense the rampant sword energy, killing intent, and chaotic Immortal Elemental energy in that hazy location.

Feeling his Eight Trigrams Disc hit Mo Wuji's trapping kill formation, a cold smile crept onto Bai Ye's lips. Did a mere Level 6 trapping kill formation think it could hold him, Bai Ye?

Bai Ye's smile froze instantly. His Eight Trigrams Disc had hit the gate of Mo Wuji's trapping kill formation, but it hadn't opened the formation. Not only that, but the Immortal Elemental backlash almost made him spit out a mouthful of blood.

All of this happened in an instant. At the same time, Mo Wuji's halberd, transformed into a long river, had already fallen.

Bai Ye couldn't care about anything else at this moment. If he didn't block this river of halberd light, then today would be his death anniversary. Even if Bai Ye suspected that the gate of this trapping kill formation was just beside the spot where he had just smashed, he had no choice but to instantly retract the Eight Trigrams Disc and hurl it towards the tens of feet long river of halberd light.

"Crack!" The halberd light slammed into the Eight Trigrams Disc, and the colored light on the Eight Trigrams Disc dissipated, like a shattered rainbow. As the rainbow shattered, the vast expanse of halberd light in the trapping kill formation gathered again, completely and utterly bombarding Bai Ye.

Bai Ye's body refining over the years had only reached the realm beyond Immortal Body Completion, the half-step Divine Body realm. It wasn't that he couldn't advance to Divine Body, but that he was unprepared. Before entering Sword Prison, he hadn't prepared treasures like Undying Sacred Bamboo and Void Nirvana Root.

Moreover, he had only started body refining after entering Sword Prison. Before that, he had a body refining technique, but he simply hadn't cultivated it.

The endless halberd light bombarded Bai Ye, directly bringing out streaks of blood mist. As for Bai Ye's clothes, they were completely swept away by the halberd light. Despite the hasty resistance, Mo Wuji's river-like divine ability only inflicted minor flesh wounds on Bai Ye.

"Stop..." Bai Ye had only said two words when Mo Wuji's Rending Domain Fist came crashing down.

Bai Ye's domain was already suppressed by Mo Wuji's trapping kill formation and vortex domain. Now, with Mo Wuji's Rending Domain Fist, his domain shattered even further.

In Sword Prison, Bai Ye's strength was only equivalent to his Immortal King level. Now that he was trapped by Mo Wuji's trapping formation, and Mo Wuji was a Grand Luo Immortal in the mid-stage, an existence no weaker than an Immortal King, and completely unscathed, how could Bai Ye not suffer? The moment his domain was torn apart, Mo Wuji's fist slammed into his heart.

"Pfft!" A mouthful of blood spurted out. Bai Ye felt as if his heart had been struck by a ten-thousand-pound hammer, so uncomfortable that he almost curled up.

He had endured the pain of ten thousand arrows piercing his heart during his long years of body refining. The feeling of a hammer directly hitting his heart was still unforgettable.

At this moment, he understood a principle even more clearly: if this Sect Master Mo didn't stop, he would have a hard time leaving alive today.

His Eight Trigrams Array Disc could indeed find the gate of this trapping kill formation in a short time, but the most terrifying thing was that the opponent could change the gate of the trapping kill formation at any time. By the time he forcibly blasted open this trapping kill formation, the other person could kill him a thousand times over.

"I admit defeat..." After Mo Wuji tore open his domain with a punch, Bai Ye knew that he had no choice but to admit defeat.

After a brief exchange, he was even more certain that Mo Wuji was at most an Immortal King, or even less than an Immortal King. If the other party was really an Immortal Emperor like him, he would have been killed long ago in this environment.

He admitted defeat unwillingly. It wasn't that his strength wasn't enough, but that the other party was using the sword energy in Sword Prison and the halberd light of the trapping kill formation, making him fight in an incredibly frustrating way.

"Good!" Mo Wuji replied simply.

Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief. He vowed that if he didn't avenge today's humiliation in the future, he would be unworthy of being an Immortal Emperor. He didn't even need to leave Sword Prison; as long as he left this small trapping kill formation, he was confident he could easily kill this Mo.

The moment Bai Ye breathed a sigh of relief, a long halberd light came head-on. The space in the protective formation suddenly solidified at this moment, slowing down his movements. Bai Ye felt the aura of death for the first time, and he saw that his future path was pitch black.

This divine ability was definitely more terrifying than the river of halberd light from before. In the solidified space of this trapping kill formation, he couldn't avoid it.

Bai Ye shouted sharply, "Mo, you go back on your word..."

He sensed Mo Wuji's determination to kill him. Even though he knew he would be killed even if he didn't admit defeat, his heart was now filled with resentment.

"It can only be said that you think too much. I only said it's good that you admitted defeat. When did I say I would let you go..."

As Mo Wuji's words fell, "Pfft!" A cloud of blood exploded. With the help of the trapping kill formation, Mo Wuji's halberd directly tore Bai Ye in half.

Mo Wuji breathed a slight sigh of relief. When Bai Ye grabbed towards Han Qingru, he had no intention of letting Bai Ye leave alive.

"I know the way out..." Bai Ye's primordial spirit, split in two, was actually unscathed.

(That's all for today's update. Good night, friends!)
