Old Five is a Goose.

Chapter 862: An Outrageously Powerful Expert

This surprise quickly vanished, and the purple-robed youth urgently shouted, "Big brother, hurry and escape, that guy chasing us is too terrifying..."

Mo Wuji smiled and said, "There's no escape. That person has already arrived. I say, Yan Li, I even gave you a bottle of Myriad Year Immortal Wood Marrow back then, and you haven't made much progress. You haven't even fully transformed; you still have two golden horns on your head."

This purple-robed youth was none other than Yan Li, the Golden Horned Purple Dragon Mo Wuji had saved. Back then, Yan Li was the one who told Mo Wuji about the Submerged Dragon Abyss passage, allowing him to leave the Realm of Cultivation. He not only returned to the Immortal Realm through the Submerged Dragon Abyss but also gained a lot there. His body refinement improved, and his cultivation also increased significantly.

Over the years, Mo Wuji could sense that Yan Li's strength was close to the Heavenly Immortal Realm. With his cultivation, he wouldn't be able to stay in this plane of existence if he advanced any further.

Yan Li said anxiously, "Although I don't know why you haven't gone to the Immortal Realm yet, we can talk about our matters later. Let's go first..."

Yan Li's words abruptly stopped as a gray figure blocked his and Mo Wuji's path.

"Little earthworm, keep running," a cold and disdainful voice came.

This was a very young-looking man with long brown hair draped over his shoulders. His voice sounded like a deflated tire.

Mo Wuji was shocked. This young man's cultivation was definitely beyond any expert he had ever seen. He was certain that even a Dao Emperor was nothing more than an ant in front of this young man.

Endless runes flickered around the young man, and Mo Wuji vaguely saw cracks appearing on his body.

As an Immortal Emperor in the mid-stage and having created his own cultivation path, Mo Wuji knew what was happening. This young man was far too strong, and the only thing that reassured him was the presence of top-tier Heaven and Earth Law Talismans on the young man, preventing the powerful Heaven and Earth laws here from tearing him into shreds.

Despite having the Heaven and Earth Law Talismans, the young man was still suppressed by the Heaven and Earth laws, with bloodstains appearing on his body.

Based on Mo Wuji's experience, the strength this person could display was likely above the Immortal King level but below the Immortal Emperor level.

Yan Li said sternly, "I don't know why you're so determined to kill me. Mo Wuji is my friend; he has nothing to do with this."

"Haha... Die, you little thing," the brown-haired man laughed wildly, reaching out directly to grab Yan Li.

Mo Wuji stepped out of the flying car and punched the brown-haired young man. Yan Li was his friend, and he couldn't allow Yan Li to be killed before his eyes.

"Big brother, quickly get out of the way. This person is extremely terrifying..."

Yan Li anxiously wanted Mo Wuji to leave, knowing that no matter how powerful Mo Wuji was, he would only last one move against this guy.

"Bold enough to attack me..."

The brown-haired man snorted coldly, turning his hand into a fist and punching Mo Wuji in the same way. He wanted to kill Mo Wuji with an identical punch.

"Boom!" Violent spiritual energy exploded, and Yan Li was directly blown away by this terrifying force. This was only because Mo Wuji had forcibly blocked the killing intent for Yan Li; otherwise, the killing intent alone would have killed Yan Li.

"Crack!" A shattering sound came.

"Ah!" Followed by a terrible roar, the brown-haired man's eyes were bloodshot, filled with a sky-high hatred and madness. "Who exactly are you? How can you be safe and sound in this place with the strength of an Immortal Emperor? I want to devour you..."

Before the brown-haired man could finish his sentence, his body began to crack continuously, and the flickering runes around him began to collapse.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he threw a more ferocious punch at Mo Wuji. This punch was several times more powerful than the previous one.

"Bang!" Just as this punch was thrown, the brown-haired man was blasted into a bloody mist. After his Law Talismans were shattered by Mo Wuji, he simply could not resist the laws of Heaven and Earth. Not only was his entire body shattered into a bloody mist, but his storage equipment was also shattered under the laws of Heaven and Earth.

Even though the brown-haired youth was crushed into dust by the laws of Heaven and Earth, the remaining power of his punch still blasted Mo Wuji away.

Fortunately, the Dao rhythm and laws of this punch were incomplete after the brown-haired man was blasted apart, and Mo Wuji only suffered minor injuries.

"Big brother, how could you kill this guy with one punch?" Yan Li rushed over in surprise.

Mo Wuji took a breath and said with some disbelief, "Yan Li, you're just a little Purple Dragon who hasn't even reached the Heavenly Immortal level. How did you provoke such a powerful enemy?"

Yan Li patted his forehead, "Big brother, I didn't want this either. This guy seems to be specifically looking for me. He's been chasing me for half a month. The truth is, I don't even know him."

Mo Wuji looked at Yan Li suspiciously, "Yan Li, I'm not underestimating you, but this guy's strength is extremely terrifying. Even ten thousand of you combined wouldn't be his match. How could he chase you for half a month without catching you?"

"Big brother, you're a bit mistaken. My bloodline has a special ability: I can easily find the nodes of planes at the same level and pass through them. Every time I switch to a new void, I shake this guy off for a while. Unfortunately, after a while, this guy relentlessly chases me again. Every time this happens, I have to find a node and leave this void; otherwise, I would have been caught by him long ago," Yan Li explained helplessly.

"Bloodline Divine Ability?" Mo Wuji said in surprise.

Having cultivated to this point, he naturally knew that this was a Bloodline Divine Ability, definitely not just some special ability. It seemed that this little Purple Dragon's background was very unusual.

"Is it a Divine Ability?" Yan Li frowned, lost in thought. His cultivation was not high enough, his inheritance was incomplete, and he couldn't understand many things.

Mo Wuji directly interrupted Yan Li's thoughts and asked eagerly, "Can you still find the location of the Submerged Dragon Abyss now?"

Yan Li shook his head, "Big brother, I don't know how far I've run, or how many voids I've been to. How can I find my way back now? But I have a solution: I can ascend at any time now. When I ascend, big brother can just come up with me."

Mo Wuji nodded. He knew that when Yan Li ascended, the passage between the Immortal Realm and the Realm of Cultivation would briefly open. As long as the passage opened, with his strength as a mid-stage Immortal Emperor, he could easily return to the Immortal Realm.

"I was just about to ask you, why haven't you ascended even though you're close to the Heavenly Immortal level?" Mo Wuji quickly asked.

Yan Li said with a bitter face, "It's not that I don't want to ascend, but I don't dare to ascend. I have the Golden Horned Purple Dragon bloodline. Once I ascend to the Immortal Realm, my bones will be devoured."

Mo Wuji patted Yan Li, "It's okay. You ascend now. When the Immortal Realm passage appears, I'll go to the Immortal Realm with you."

"Big brother, don't worry. As long as I want to ascend, I can do it at any time," Yan Li patted his chest. He trusted Mo Wuji greatly. Mo Wuji could even kill that pervert who was chasing him, which showed that this big brother he recognized was outrageously powerful.

"Wait, I'll return this to you. I haven't met your mother these years, so I can only give this bead back to you," Mo Wuji took out a cyan bead.

This cyan bead was the one Yan Li had given to Mo Wuji back then, asking Mo Wuji to return the bead to his mother if he saw her. Mo Wuji hadn't seen Yan Li's mother, and now that Yan Li was about to ascend to the Immortal Realm, he might as well return the bead to Yan Li.

Yan Li took the bead, his expression somewhat dim, clearly missing his mother.

"Don't think too much. Your strength is really terrible. Even though you've transformed on the surface, even an idiot can tell you're from the Golden Horned Purple Dragon clan. I'll give you one more thing. After you refine this, ascend,"

With that, Mo Wuji took out a jade box and handed it to Yan Li.

Yan Li took the jade box in confusion, wondering what else could help his Dragon clan transform. When he opened the jade box, he immediately exclaimed in surprise, "Shape Dao Fruit? Big brother, you even have this? Right, you gave me Myriad Year Immortal Wood Marrow back then, and now you're giving me a Shape Dao Fruit. Big brother, do you have any..."

"Don't be so long winded, refine it quickly," Mo Wuji slapped Yan Li's head. He felt that this guy should never be put together with Shuaiguo, because if they are, a chemical reaction is highly probable.

"Okay, I'll refine it right away," Yan Li happily grabbed the Shape Dao Fruit and rushed into Mo Wuji's flying car. He didn't treat himself as an outsider at all.

...

A month later, Yan Li stood up. His eyes were full of surprise. Although his cultivation hadn't improved much, his understanding of the Great Dao Dao Rhythm had deepened.

Not only that, but the aura of the Golden Horned Purple Dragon on his body had disappeared without a trace. Even the two small golden horns on his head had disappeared, and the purple aura surrounding his body had all been restrained.

"Not bad, you finally look somewhat like a human," Mo Wuji was also very happy. He could see that Yan Li's future achievements were hard to estimate.

Although Shuaiguo was a bloodline inheritance left behind by a Primordial Species, Yan Li wouldn't be worse than Shuaiguo. In terms of cultivation, Shuaiguo wasn't as diligent as Yan Li, so it wasn't surprising that Yan Li had surpassed him.

On the other hand, Mo Wuji didn't know how far Da Huang's potential extended. He had opened up one hundred and eight spiritual channels and one hundred and eight meridians for Da Huang. If Da Huang could merge the spiritual channels and meridians into one in the future, his achievements might be even higher than his.

"Big brother, I can undergo tribulation now," Yan Li had already seen Mo Wuji stop the flying car on a barren, cracked planet.

"Okay, go ahead and undergo tribulation. You don't have to worry about me when you ascend; I'll follow you up," Mo Wuji waved his hand at Yan Li.

After Yan Li left to undergo tribulation, Mo Wuji took Da Huang and Shuaiguo into the Immortal World and called out Mo Qingche.

In just a few months, Mo Qingche's temperament had become somewhat similar to Mo Wuji's, and she had become even more ordinary. Her cultivation had also improved greatly, reaching the third level of Vein Opening.
