Before Mo Wuji could say anything, he felt a murderous intent rising from the depths of his heart. Although Bai Chitian in front of him hadn't moved an inch, Mo Wuji didn't hesitate to shift his body and instantly teleport away from his original position.
Teleportation was one of his trump cards. He used it before even exchanging blows with Bai Chitian because he was highly sensitive to danger.
Almost the instant Mo Wuji teleported away, a gray lightning flash directly cut the shadow Mo Wuji left behind into two halves.
Mo Wuji was shocked. Only then did he see a strange demonic beast standing in the distance. The beast's head was like a triangular snake head. The most peculiar thing was that the top of the beast's head had a blade crest several feet long.
Mo Wuji was sure he wasn't mistaken. It was indeed a blade crest.
Even when his spiritual will scanned it, he felt an icy killing intent and baleful aura.
The beast was about five feet tall, and its entire body was gray. Apart from its triangular head and blade crest, it only had three legs.
Such a large creature had just ambushed him, and he only noticed it at the critical moment of killing intent. If he hadn't had teleportation, even if he had noticed it, he would have been caught by the beast.
This reminded Mo Wuji of his Discard Pot. This thing seemed much more powerful than the Discard Pot.
"Eh?" Bai Chitian let out a surprised sound when he saw Mo Wuji dodge his Blade Crest Beast's sneak attack. He was about to summon a magical treasure to ensnare Mo Wuji when he felt a sharp saber light slashing towards him.
The sharp and powerful saber light almost locked down the surrounding hundred-foot area. A suffocating death enveloped Bai Chitian's body and mind.
Was this merely a saber light? This was simply saber energy crushing space.
With just this one saber strike, Bai Chitian understood that he had been deceived by Mo Wuji. When attacking the protective array, Mo Wuji probably hadn't even used 30% of his strength. This level of strength wasn't that much worse than his, but not even a little bit. It was even more powerful than his killing intent.
He had originally thought that killing Mo Wuji would be an easy task, but now Bai Chitian realized how idiotic he had been.
If he had known Mo Wuji was so powerful before, even if he wanted to attack Mo Wuji, he wouldn't have come alone. But now, he had no way to retreat.
Bai Chitian's domain frantically expanded, trying to suppress Mo Wuji with his domain, and then unleash his most powerful divine ability. At the same time, Bai Chitian's Blade Crest Beast also pounced between the two domains.
In Bai Chitian's opinion, no matter how thick Mo Wuji's immortal essence was, his domain would be weaker than his Profound Immortal domain. As long as he could suppress Mo Wuji's crazy momentum, he could redefine his strategy.
As the two domains clashed, Bai Chitian felt as if his domain was trapped in a strangling space. A vortex-like force swept over, slowly devouring and shattering his domain. His Profound Immortal cultivation's domain was actually weaker than Mo Wuji's Golden Immortal domain? How was this possible? He was at least a top star-level genius...
"Boom!" The saber light suddenly converged and slammed into Bai Chitian's Crimson Copper Essence Staff, scattering immortal essence everywhere. Bai Chitian felt a flood-like power of immortal essence surging towards him. His immortal essence burst out, and at the same time, he grabbed a talisman in his hand.
Then he saw Mo Wuji being blasted away like a kite with a broken string.
Bai Chitian's heart relaxed amidst his panic. So he was just a paper tiger.
"Pfft!" A stream of blood spurted out as Mo Wuji landed on the ground.
"You!" Bai Chitian stared at Mo Wuji with bloodshot eyes. Only now did he understand why Mo Wuji had been so weak earlier. It turned out that he had done it on purpose. Mo Wuji hadn't wanted to kill him, Bai Chitian, but his Blade Crest Beast.
The Blade Crest Beast was lying on the ground, already lifeless.
This Blade Crest Beast was Bai Chitian's lifeline. It had put in so much effort for him, but it had been casually killed by Mo Wuji. How could Bai Chitian not be furious?
The gray long saber in Mo Wuji's hand, after being stained with blood, looked even more murderous.
For Mo Wuji, this Blade Crest Beast had to be killed. If he hadn't been sensitive to killing intent and had teleportation, he would have been ambushed by the Blade Crest Beast. If he had been split in two by the Blade Crest Beast, even if he didn't die, he would have fallen into Bai Chitian's hands.
How could Mo Wuji let go of such hatred? Besides, if he and Bai Chitian fought to the death later, the Blade Crest Beast would be a great threat. So, from the beginning, he used his domain to suppress the Blade Crest Beast, then cast a spatial imprisonment on it and killed it with one strike.
"Die!" Bai Chitian, infuriated to the extreme, directly activated the talisman in his hand, and the Crimson Copper Essence Staff also created thousands of staff shadows, enveloping Mo Wuji.
Two illusory dragons formed by the staff shadows opened their huge mouths on the left and right, sealing off all of Mo Wuji's escape routes and space.
If Mo Wuji retreated, it would be the same as entering Bai Chitian's pocket. With the Blade Crest Beast killed, the anger in Bai Chitian's heart was unimaginable. But Bai Chitian wasn't just a raging idiot. He also knew Mo Wuji's strength, otherwise, it would have been impossible to kill his Blade Crest Beast with one strike.
Although his Blade Crest Beast's level was not high, it came and went without a trace and was the most difficult demonic beast to capture. Being able to kill the Blade Crest Beast with one strike while confronting him, even if it was an attack, was not simple. At this moment, he had long treated Mo Wuji as a lifelong enemy.
Mo Wuji never thought about retreating at all. Not only did he not escape, but after throwing a punch, he instead strode towards Bai Chitian.
Mo Wuji's punch looked very casual, but it was actually not simple.
A scorching aura split open a passage in space. This punch was originally his divine ability, the Rift Domain Fist.
"Boom boom boom!" The Rift Domain Fist and Bai Chitian's two illusory staff shadows slammed together, and explosive sounds burst out in the void, as if several missiles had concentrated and exploded in the same place. Even the void was blasted with ripples, trembling incessantly.
Because of Mo Wuji's Rift Domain Fist's obstruction, Bai Chitian's Crimson Copper Essence Staff trembled. It was directly blocked in the void.
Mo Wuji ignored his own condition amidst the explosion and raised his hand to draw a profound circular trace towards Bai Chitian.
Mo Wuji's trump card, the Cycle of Life and Death.
Once the Cycle of Life and Death was unleashed, there was no turning back between life and death.
The void dimmed at this moment. Bai Chitian suddenly wanted to calm down and look at the scenery in the distance, wanting to stop and recall the beautiful times he had once had.
He saw a beautiful wheel, with all kinds of colors in the wheel. These colors were all his glorious past and memories. At the same time, he saw a gray color in this beautiful wheel. This gray color was like the color of lost vitality, without any vitality.
This was a divine ability. Just as Bai Chitian thought of this, he felt the gray color imprint on his chest.
An aura of death swept over him, and fear appeared in Bai Chitian's eyes. He regretted it. He regretted that he shouldn't have come here to stop Mo Wuji. He regretted that he shouldn't have just activated a death talisman to try to kill Mo Wuji. If he hadn't activated the death talisman just now, he would definitely not have the ability to escape now. Even when faced with Mo Wuji's fatal wheel, he would have been able to retreat.
Now everything was too late. He could never take back the talisman he had sent out.
Bai Chitian was, after all, a star-level genius of the Grand Vastness Immortal Sect. After knowing that he could no longer escape death, he became relieved instead. His eyes became calm, and he stared coldly at Mo Wuji, who had unleashed the Cycle of Life and Death. What if he killed him? He would still have to be buried with him.
After unleashing the Cycle of Life and Death, Mo Wuji also felt a burst of weakness throughout his body. Almost at the same moment, he once again felt the threat of death.
"Pfft!" Before Mo Wuji could escape, he felt an icy aura directly cutting into his body.
Although his body still looked fine on the surface, Mo Wuji felt that his body had been split open.
The next moment, Mo Wuji was horrified. An undetectable icy blade light penetrated into his body, and his meridians were being torn apart one by one by this icy aura.
Each time this icy aura tore apart a meridian, its power seemed to increase several levels again.
Not good, he was ambushed. It should be a talisman that ambushed him. If Mo Wuji still didn't know that he had been ambushed at this moment, he would be too idiotic. Mo Wuji was sure that if he didn't quickly find a place to heal, once his Spirit Storage Meridian and Divine Storage Meridian, or even his Life Meridian, were damaged, he would follow in the footsteps of Bai Chitian in front of him.
Thinking of this, Mo Wuji directly grabbed Bai Chitian's ring, his body flashed, and he escaped from his original location.
After half an incense stick's time, Mo Wuji had to stop. The meridians in his body were being destroyed more and more severely. If he hadn't had the Spirit Storage Meridian and the Divine Storage Meridian, he wouldn't have been able to escape to this place. Although he knew this place was very dangerous, Mo Wuji could only penetrate into the ground and enter the Immortal World at the same time.
The Life Meridian constantly began to repair the devoured vitality. The Spirit Storage Meridian and the Divine Storage Meridian simultaneously reversed frantically, suppressing the growth of the cold light in his body while repairing the torn meridians.
……
Not long after Mo Wuji left, a black-clothed youth came to the place where he and Bai Chitian had fought. The black-clothed youth's eyes were somewhat demonic, with a very charming light. His gaze fell on the Blade Crest Beast, which had been killed by Mo Wuji with one strike, and then shifted to Bai Chitian, whose face was pale and silent.
After a long time, the black-clothed youth murmured to himself, "As expected, he's powerful. A Golden Immortal cultivator was ambushed by the Blade Crest Beast and then attacked head-on by the Profound Immortal Late Stage Bai Chitian, yet he was able to kill Bai Chitian and the Blade Crest Beast and then leave. But I know you must have been severely injured, otherwise, you wouldn't have even burned the corpses. Since that's the case, I'll help you this once. I hope I don't find you. Once I find you, consider yourself unlucky."
After the black-clothed youth finished speaking, he raised his hand and threw out two balls of flame, burning the Blade Crest Beast and Bai Chitian, and then his body flashed. He actually chased after Mo Wuji's direction of departure.
In less than half an incense stick's time, he stopped. And the place where he stopped was only a few dozen feet away from the location of Mo Wuji's Immortal World.
At this time, his spiritual will was searching this area in an almost penetrating manner.
