Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 540 Calling the Wind
"We definitely can get out. Just stay behind me," Mo Wuji said confidently.
These mists were obstacles to other cultivators, but to Mo Wuji's spirit eye, they posed no hindrance at all.
Occasionally, cries of cultivators could be heard in the distance, but these cries quickly disappeared.
Two hours later, Mo Wuji stopped. The twelve people following Mo Wuji also stopped. Everyone looked at Mo Wuji nervously, afraid he would say he was lost.
Mo Wuji wasn't lost; not only wasn't he lost, but he also knew that they could leave the ruin in a few more steps. What stunned him was the statue from before. The statue had fallen to the ground, and he had helped stand it up again. At that time, he even helped the statue find an arm and build a defense array.
But now, the platform where the statue stood was still there, but the statue had disappeared.
Mo Wuji absolutely didn't believe anyone had taken the statue away. Not only was it an ordinary statue, but the defense array he had set up was also intact, without even a trace of attack. There were no remnants of the statue under the platform.
Mo Wuji walked to the edge of the statue platform and bent down to touch it with his hand. It seemed to be made of ordinary stones.
After standing on the platform for a long time, Mo Wuji suddenly understood.
The reason they had been safe until now should be related to the statue. The voice that had reminded him before was likely the statue.
If a statue could remind him, the only possibility was that this statue was not a statue at all, but a body that looked like a statue.
The body was knocked to the ground, and he sent it back to the platform. The platform should be the key to the restoration of the body's primordial spirit. No wonder the voice in his ear said he had helped him once. If his guess was true, he had really helped.
He had helped before because he felt that a statue also had such emotions, and he was touched. Now it seemed that helping others was helping oneself.
"Brother Mo, are we lost?" Zuo Yi Xian asked worriedly.
Mo Wuji slowly stood up. "Let's go. We're about to get out."
With that, Mo Wuji took a few steps and walked out of the ruin, the others following closely behind through the misty ruin.
Almost at the same time as they stepped out of the ruin, everyone breathed a long sigh of relief. When the mist shrouded them and people kept falling, many thought they would never escape, but they had actually made it out.
Everyone stepped forward to thank Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji waved his hand and said, "Let's part ways here. This ruin is a bit strange. Our cultivation is too low, so let's not go in again."
Besides the ruin, there were many good things in the Shattered Realm. Without Mo Wuji's reminder, no one would want to come to this ruin again.
Knowing that Mo Wuji said this because he wanted to leave alone, the dozen or so people stepped forward to say goodbye.
After everyone left, Murong Xiangyu came forward, bowed to Mo Wuji, and said, "Wuji, about what happened back then... Thank you for saving my life this time. I'm leaving too. Take care... Take this ring; consider it my repayment..."
Murong Xiangyu seemed to know that Mo Wuji wouldn't accept her things. After saying that, she placed a ring on a large stone beside Mo Wuji and turned to leave.
"Wait, take your things. I have enough things; I don't need them," Mo Wuji called out to Murong Xiangyu.
Murong Xiangyu stopped. She didn't turn back to take the ring but turned her head to Mo Wuji and said, "That Ji Yue is not sincere to you; she's using you... Also, you said I wasn't suitable for the Grand Supreme Dao. I've thought about it for a long time, and I think you might be right."
After saying this, she quickly fled, disappearing soon.
Mo Wuji shook his head helplessly. Ji Yue was using him; did Murong Xiangyu need to remind him of that? He could only pick up the ring. His spiritual will quickly penetrated the ring. Besides two ordinary-looking linen papers, there was nothing else in the ring.
With a wave of his hand, two pages of paper appeared in his hand. Although they were two ordinary linen papers, the moment he held them, a sense of righteousness filled Mo Wuji's mind and soul.
This was the Luo River Book?
It was actually two chapters of the Luo River Book. Mo Wuji never expected Murong Xiangyu to be so generous as to give him two chapters of the Luo River Book. This woman actually knew how to be grateful, which surprised Mo Wuji.
No wonder so many people were fighting for the seven chapters of the Luo River Book. He hadn't even looked at these two chapters, but just with that sense of righteousness and the grand Dao ideals, he felt that this was definitely a treasure among treasures.
Mo Wuji finally understood why Murong Xiangyu desperately didn't want to give up the seven chapters of the Luo River Book. If he had such a thing in his hands, he would also fight desperately to not give it up.
The reason why the hundreds of cultivators before didn't snatch the Luo River Book was probably because they didn't know the true value of the Luo River Book. Everyone had only heard that the Luo River Book was a legendary innate spiritual treasure, but no one knew what this spiritual treasure was actually like.
If the Luo River Book were seen by everyone, perhaps even if his strength was twice as strong, he would not be able to stop everyone from frantically snatching it.
Mo Wuji looked in the direction where Murong Xiangyu had left and sighed for a long time. Murong Xiangyu was also playing with fire, daring to give him two chapters of the Luo River Book. If it wasn't him, but someone else, they might not be able to resist chasing after her.
Picking up a chapter of the Luo River Book, Mo Wuji's eyes fell on it.
"Carry Luo Five Elements, heaven and earth are divided, understand its changes, exhaust its numbers..."
Mo Wuji only read a dozen words, and each word hit the depths of his heart like a morning bell and evening drum. Waves of vast and boundless Dao rhythm swept over him, making his whole body tremble with excitement. In just a few breaths, he realized how crude his wind escape technique was.
Mo Wuji immediately put away the Luo River Book and sent it into his Immortal Mortal World.
At this moment, he was so excited that he was trembling. This Luo River Book was too powerful. His self-created cultivation method, combined with these two chapters of the Luo River Book, would definitely have another qualitative leap.
At this time, Mo Wuji was sure that Murong Xiangyu herself didn't fully understand the terror and importance of the Luo River Book. If Murong Xiangyu knew, would she still give him two chapters of the Luo River Book?
Mo Wuji didn't stay where he was. He chose a direction and quickly fled. Gathering immortal spirit herbs, etc., since he couldn't advance to become a Pill Emperor in a short time, the most important thing for him was to quickly find a place to study the Luo River Book.
...
Several days later, Mo Wuji found a not-small natural lake. One side of the lake was a half-cliff, with the cliff recessed inward and surrounded by some low-level immortal spirit herbs.
Mo Wuji directly collected all these immortal spirit herbs, then entered the crevice in the cliff and simply dug a cave for himself in the depths of the crevice. After setting up a concealment array and a protection array outside the cave, he directly entered the Immortal Mortal World.
In the Immortal Mortal World, Mo Wuji took out the two chapters of the Luo River Book again.
That vast Dao aura filled Mo Wuji's mind and body once more. Each word on these two chapters of the Luo River Book contained endless Dao rhythm, immersing Mo Wuji in it, unable to control himself.
Time passed gradually, and his already formed wind escape technique changed again at this moment.
Previously, Mo Wuji only knew that after his wind escape technique reached the ninth level, it would undergo a qualitative change, but he didn't know what kind of qualitative change it would be.
When he obtained these two chapters of the Luo River Book, the qualitative change of the wind escape technique was like a gradually clear broad road, slowly paving out in front of him.
After the ninth level of wind escape technique are five major realms. The first realm is the Formed Wind. When he reaches this realm, his entire body will turn into wind when he escapes and then merge into the wind to escape.
At this time, although he still has form, it is almost identical to the aura of the wind, and people who have not reached the realm cannot detect it.
After the Formed Wind is the second realm, the Formless Wind. When he reaches this realm, even if there is no wind, as long as there are wind elements in the void air, he can dissolve into these wind elements and leave silently. This is countless times stronger than urging the wind to escape, and there is no comparison at all. The speed of one escape depends on one's cultivation, and the speed of the second escape depends on nature.
The third realm is Wind Shift. As long as there are two places with wind, he can directly teleport from one place to another.
This is not a spatial teleport, but a teleport using wind. Compared to spatial teleportation, this kind of teleportation has almost no spatial fluctuations and consumes very little of his own energy.
The fourth realm is Induce Wind. This is no longer an auxiliary means but a means of turning the wind escape technique into an attack method, inducing the original wind in the space to attack opponents or strike the surrounding things.
The fifth realm is Call Wind. Mo Wuji had only heard of this realm in legends on Earth. Calling the wind and summoning the rain was something that immortals did. Immortals are, after all, legends. Although they can be called immortals, Mo Wuji knew very well that he was not an immortal; he was just cultivating immortality.
But if he could call the wind, what was he if not an immortal? This was definitely a great divine ability.
After deducing his wind escape technique, Mo Wuji woke up. At this moment, his wind escape technique could no longer be called an escape technique, but a true wind-type great divine ability.
Mo Wuji decided to find an opportunity to learn a small technique for transforming into rain so that he could use the Luo River Book to deduce the divine ability to summon rain in the future. Perhaps this divine ability was not very useful to him, but being able to call the wind and summon the rain was the dream of everyone who had read Earth's myths.
