Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 406 Seeking a Way Out

Seeing that no one moved for a long time, Lou Chuanhe was the first to step out, "Junior Brother Mo, you can check as you please. I'm giving it up."

"I'll give it up too." Surprisingly, following closely behind Lou Chuanhe was Qu Yang, the Sect Leader of the Absolute Blade Sect. Since Mo Wuji had said that the Absolute Blade Sect was no more, he had remained silent.

Mo Wuji hadn't expected that Qu Yang would be the second to step forward.

"Since Dao Friend Mo can occupy the top spot on the Starry Sky Roll, I think he's qualified to make this request," Bian Shuangbi said before strolling out from the depths of the valley. His original position was the innermost and highest. Naturally, walking out meant passing by the others.

A cultivator from Gu Nuo Star snorted coldly, "How do we know he's not using the excuse of checking to lure us out and then occupy this valley alone?"

Because such a thing was entirely possible. Once Mo Wuji turned cunning, luring everyone else out and occupying the place himself, no one would have the ability to get back in.

Bian Shuangbi ignored him and continued to walk out of the valley. As Bian Shuangbi walked out, Mu Yingqiao and Fang Qi followed suit.

Mo Wuji sneered and said faintly, "I've already invited them out, and the cultivators from my True Star have also come out. If the others are unwilling to come out and it affects my inspection of the conditions inside, don't blame me for being impolite."

If anyone else had dared to say such a thing, the cultivators from Gu Nuo Star and Wolf King Mountain would have definitely flown into a rage and attacked.

But even if Mo Wuji wasn't in that small section of the valley, his cultivation wouldn't be affected. They simply didn't dare to attack. Because attacking wouldn't stop Mo Wuji from entering, and once Mo Wuji came in and started throwing spells around, the valley would still be blasted into ruins.

"I believe Dao Friend Mo wouldn't speak falsely." Since the cultivators from True Star had all come out, and the cultivators from other places weren't coming out, Mo Wuji had originally intended to take action. Unexpectedly, Black Fox proactively cooperated and walked out, even speaking up for him.

With Black Fox coming out, the other demon beast from Wolf King Mountain and the Starry Sky Wolf King had no choice but to walk out as well.

The few remaining people who didn't want to come out saw that most people had, and they had no choice but to follow suit.

Mo Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. If he could avoid a fight, he didn't want to fight here.

A dozen or so people watched Mo Wuji walk into the valley alone, and they were all extremely tense. Because they were outside, they had no chance to attack. At this time, their biggest worry was that after Mo Wuji occupied that section of the valley, he would suddenly attack them.

Fortunately, that didn't happen. Mo Wuji merely had his back to them, seemingly genuinely inspecting the surrounding conditions.

Mo Wuji naturally disdained using such methods to obtain this small valley. After everyone had gone out, he immediately condensed his spiritual eye.

Soon, he saw several concealed teleportation arrays, which should have been teleportation arrays transmitted over using teleportation talismans. There was one at Bian Shuangbi's position, one at Black Fox's position, and one at the position of a neutral cultivator.

It was evident that if he were to forcefully attack, these three people would definitely teleport back immediately.

Mo Wuji wasn't concerned about this. If it were him, he would have left a safeguard as well. However, that safeguard was meaningless to him because destroying those three teleportation arrays was as easy as flipping his hand. It could be said that it could be done with a thought. Mo Wuji, as someone from True Star, wanted to find a way out, and he didn't want to be trapped in this place for thousands of years.

In less than half an incense stick of time, Mo Wuji discovered something unusual. The location with the densest spiritual Qi was Bian Shuangbi's location. Bian Shuangbi's location was slightly higher in terrain, but behind the seemingly hard valley wall, there were array foundations that even divine sense couldn't scan.

Mo Wuji couldn't see what was behind the array foundations, but he was certain that if he wanted to get out, he would have to destroy the array foundations behind that section of the valley wall first.

Mo Wuji touched that section of the cliff wall with his hand and felt that its hardness was definitely something he couldn't break through alone. Besides, even if he could break through it alone, he wouldn't do so. After all, besides the hidden array foundations behind the valley wall, Bian Shuangbi had also set up a hidden teleportation array. It wouldn't be good if Bian Shuangbi misunderstood that he was going to destroy the teleportation array.

Thinking of this, Mo Wuji stood up and said to everyone, "Everyone can come in now."

Hearing Mo Wuji's words, everyone rushed into the valley. Only in this section of the valley could they unleash their power.

Bian Shuangbi cupped his fists at Mo Wuji and said, "Dao Friend Mo, have you discovered anything?"

Mo Wuji pointed to the section of the valley wall behind the position Bian Shuangbi occupied and said, "Dao Friend Bian, I have made some discoveries. I have a slight understanding of array Dao. There should be a hidden array foundation behind this section of the valley wall. I don't know if this array foundation is natural or man-made. If we want to know more, we must break through this section of the valley wall and destroy that array foundation first."

Mo Wuji didn't say that he had discovered it through his own spiritual eye. He only said that he understood some array Dao.

Everyone was looking at Bian Shuangbi since the one that was going to be attacked was Bian Shuangbi's place.

Bian Shuangbi smiled slightly, "I have no objections. I do have something to tell Dao Friend Mo. When we first came, we also bombarded the surrounding area. Originally, the area here was twice as large as it is now. After we bombarded it, the front part collapsed, turning into an area where cultivation is impossible. And the area where we can stay became even smaller."

Mo Wuji understood what Bian Shuangbi meant, which was that the area outside where divine sense and yuan energy couldn't be extended wasn't originally this large. The reason it became so large was because after everyone bombarded the valley, the area inside became smaller and the area outside became larger.

This also told Mo Wuji not to randomly bombard the valley walls here without sufficient certainty.

"I have enough confidence," Mo Wuji said calmly.

After a pause, he continued, "Of course, if everyone doesn't want to leave and is willing to continue cultivating in seclusion in this spacious place for thousands of years, then pretend I didn't say anything."

"I've had enough of this place, Junior Brother Mo, I'm the first to support you," Lou Chuanhe once again stepped forward.

"I also support it." This time it was Fang Qi who spoke. Fang Qi's lifespan was basically coming to an end. Continuing to stay here was equivalent to cultivating in seclusion and waiting for death.

Before the others who were hesitating could speak, Mo Wuji directly said, "Since that's the case, then we will attack this place at the same time. I believe that even if this place is hard, with everyone attacking at the same time, it won't last long."

"Alright." Bian Shuangbi simply said one word before directly grabbing his magical treasure.

Bian Shuangbi's magical treasure was actually a folding fan, which made Mo Wuji very curious about the power of this folding fan. Bian Shuangbi's strength here should be considered top-notch, and his cultivation technique should also be extraordinary. At least from his appearance, there were no signs of the passage of time.

"Dao Friend Mo, you say when to attack, and we'll attack," Bian Shuangbi said with a smile, holding the folding fan.

Seeing that everyone around him had summoned their magical treasures, Mo Wuji raised his Heavenly Machine Staff. "Then let's attack now."

As he spoke, Mo Wuji's Heavenly Machine Staff had already brought with it endless yuan energy and slammed towards that cliff wall.

Almost at the instant Mo Wuji attacked, the others summoned their magical treasures and struck the same spot as Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji secretly praised in his heart that these guys were all top-notch experts. Compared to when he and several Human Immortals had joined forces to deal with Zhu Qu, the power of joining forces with these people was hundreds of times stronger. Moreover, he knew that none of the people here were attacking with their full strength. Everyone here was wary of each other, and no fool would attack with their full strength. Even Mo Wuji himself was holding back.

"Boom!" More than a dozen attacks almost simultaneously struck the same spot, and a powerful roar rang out in the valley.

"Rumble!" Pieces of gravel fell, and everyone looked outside. The place where the gravel fell was the outer edge of the area where everyone was staying. Because of the falling gravel, half of the area where Mo Wuji was staying was exposed in a place where yuan energy couldn't be condensed.

Everyone looked at Mo Wuji without saying anything. Mo Wuji understood what they meant, which was that if they continued to attack, perhaps they wouldn't find a way out, and the small valley where they were staying would completely disappear.

Mo Wuji looked at the valley wall that was unscathed after being attacked once, took a breath, and said, "Fellow Daoists, I know you have concerns, but please believe me. I'm sure there's something strange about this place, and perhaps there will be a way out after it's opened. But I hope that everyone can attack with their full strength next time. This place is already hard, and if everyone holds back, it will probably be difficult to open. And please don't have any more concerns, otherwise, hesitating is not the attitude of doing things."

After saying these words, Mo Wuji didn't give everyone any chance and once again summoned his Heavenly Machine Staff and shouted loudly, "Continue to attack."

"Boom!" More than a dozen magical treasures once again struck the same place, and this time the power was several times greater than the first time.

The sound of collapse outside came again, and everyone knew that the place where they were staying had become much smaller.

Mo Wuji didn't care and continuously summoned his Heavenly Machine Staff to strike the middle of the valley wall. The others could only summon their magical treasures and follow Mo Wuji to attack at the same time.

"Boom boom boom boom!" Continuous booming sounds rang out in the valley. After a full half an incense stick of time, a Heaven Immortal cultivator from Gu Nuo Star suddenly said, "I'm afraid we can't bombard it anymore. If we continue to bombard it, we won't have a place to stay."

Everyone's expression was a bit ugly. The place where they were staying originally was now less than a third of its original size. That is to say, if they couldn't find a way out from now on, everyone could only sit in here one by one.

"Cracks have already appeared," Mo Wuji said, pointing to the place that had been bombarded.

"So what? If we bombard it like this in any place for half an incense stick of time, cracks will appear," the Starry Sky Wolf King said in a cold tone.
