Chapter 907 Someone Disagrees
It was said that after the Divine Domain Nest hatched, there were top-grade treasures inside, and Mo Wuji naturally didn't want to miss such an opportunity.
"Sect Leader, don't worry. Three days later, I will definitely arrive on time with the disciples to head to the Divine Domain Nest," Mo Wuji said without hesitation.
"In that case, I'll leave first. You should also prepare." Shi Su stood up, quite satisfied with Mo Wuji.
Just as his master had said, Mo Wuji was excellent in both character and ability, except for his slightly lacking aptitude. The poor aptitude was probably due to problems during the transformation of his spiritual roots.
…
Three days later, when Mo Wuji brought Ku Cai to the sect's plaza, a huge flying ship was already parked there. It was more impressive than the one Wei Jie had brought them to the sect in, by at least ten times.
There were at least several hundred people in the plaza. Mo Wuji didn't recognize most of them, except for a handful of about a dozen.
"Wuji, why did you bring Ku Cai too?" Shi Su was also in the plaza. When he saw Ku Cai behind Mo Wuji, he quickly came over to ask.
Mo Wuji quickly said in a low voice, "Sect Leader, Ku Cai has already advanced to the Spirit Nurturing Realm. After she entered the Spirit Nurturing Realm, her dark spiritual roots could no longer be detected."
Mo Wuji was also quite emotional. Cultivating with his 108 meridians was definitely considered fast. From the cultivation world to the Immortal World, he hadn't seen many people whose cultivation speed was faster than his. The reason why Murong Xiangyu's cultivation speed was faster than his in the past was probably because those few chapters of the Luo River Scroll that Murong Xiangyu had contained a time-accelerated world; otherwise, Mo Wuji was sure that Murong Xiangyu's cultivation speed would not be as fast as his.
But Ku Cai's speed was truly fast. In just half a year, Ku Cai not only concealed all the dark attributes of her Yuan energy but also took another step forward from Immortal Emperor Completion, advancing to the Spirit Nurturing Realm. Ku Cai's Spirit Nurturing was already at the completion of the first level, while Mo Wuji was just stabilizing at the first level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm.
"Ah, really?" Shi Su asked excitedly.
Then came the words of Ancestor Master Pang Jie, "Wuji, Ku Cai actually concealed her dark spiritual roots in the Spirit Nurturing Realm? This matter cannot be faked. If there are any problems, our Heavenly Mortal Sect will be caught with an excuse."
Mo Wuji bowed to Pang Jie, who had walked closer, and said, "Ancestor Master, it is indeed true."
Pang Jie nodded and said to Ku Cai, "Come with me to the flying ship to test it."
"Yes, Ancestor Master," Ku Cai replied respectfully.
After Pang Jie took Ku Cai away, Shi Su also brought Mo Wuji in front of the disciples and said loudly, "This is Mo Wuji, the Hall Master of the Outer Affairs Hall of my Heavenly Mortal Sect, residing on the Mortal Peak, and also the chief disciple of my Heavenly Mortal Sect going to the Divine Domain Nest this time."
Just as Mo Wuji didn't recognize these disciples, only a handful of about a dozen of the disciples here knew Mo Wuji.
Apart from the handful of disciples who knew Mo Wuji and expressed their welcome, the rest of the disciples only expressed a token of welcome. Obviously, in everyone's opinion, Mo Wuji didn't seem to have much spiritual aura around him and probably relied on connections to become the Hall Master of the Outer Affairs Hall.
"Sect Leader, are so many disciples from our Heavenly Mortal Sect going this time?" Mo Wuji looked at the hundreds of disciples in the plaza, somewhat surprised.
Shi Su said with a bitter smile, "There are forty-nine disciples going this time. If we add Ku Cai, that's fifty disciples. My Heavenly Mortal Sect has just started up. Although we have recruited some disciples with good aptitudes, the time has been too short. I'm afraid it will be difficult to gain an advantage in the competition for the hatching of the Divine Domain Nest, alas…"
Everyone knew the importance of the Divine Domain Nest, but the competition for the Divine Domain Nest was not something that could be solved by having a Divine King.
Mo Wuji looked at it. There were some disciples at the eighth and ninth level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm. But Mo Wuji could also understand Shi Su's helplessness. These disciples at the eighth and ninth level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm obviously didn't come to the Heavenly Mortal Sect to cultivate. Just like Yin Lin and Zhai Butong, they were already at the seventh level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm when they entered the sect.
This kind of strength seemed not bad in the Spirit Nurturing Realm, but it was simply not enough when compared with the talented disciples of those big sects.
Soon, Wei Jie brought the Ancestor Master's decree, and all the disciples going to the Divine Domain Nest could board the ship.
It could be said that there were three people leading the team from the Heavenly Mortal Sect this time, besides Ancestor Master Pang Jie and Mo Wuji, there was also Elder Wei Jie. Sect Leader Shi Su and the other elders were just here to see them off.
After Mo Wuji boarded the ship, Ku Cai also returned. Her face was very happy. Obviously, the Ancestor Master had tested her aptitude, and her dark spiritual roots could indeed not be detected.
Among the fifty disciples, besides Mo Wuji and Ku Cai, Yin Lin and Zhai Butong were also among them. This made Mo Wuji feel that the Heavenly Mortal Sect was still very humane. No matter how one looked at their strength, it wouldn't be Yin Lin and Zhai Butong's turn to go to the Divine Domain Nest. He was considered to have good work ability and could barely follow the team, and even become the chief disciple.
Now, not only him and Yin Lin, Zhai Butong, but even Ku Cai could come along.
After the flying ship started, Wei Jie directly called all the disciples participating in the Divine Domain Nest over. Wei Jie was originally a swindler-like character. Apart from Mo Wuji and a few others, not many disciples knew his details. For the rest of the disciples, the only thing they knew was that Wei Jie was an elder of the sect, and still a very old elder.
So in front of Wei Jie, all the disciples behaved very politely.
Wei Jie nodded with a serious face and said, "You are lucky. No sect going to the Divine Domain Nest has a Divine King expert accompanying them, but you do. This is the first-class of luck and pride."
Wei Jie really had the potential of a swindler. Just one sentence of luck gave the disciples here a sense of pride.
Wei Jie nodded very satisfied. "From now on, Mo Wuji is your Senior Brother. Everything can be reported to Wuji. If Wuji can't handle it, I will come out to handle it for you. Alright, from here to the Divine Domain Nest, including the teleportation, there are still a few months of journey. Everyone should rest first."
After speaking, Wei Jie waved his hand in a completely irresponsible manner and directly entered the inner cabin to enjoy the treatment of the Ancestor Master.
Some disciples with slightly lower cultivation and gentle temperaments came forward to pay their respects to Mo Wuji. Although Mo Wuji's cultivation as the Senior Brother seemed to them to be inferior to theirs, Elder Wei Jie had said that Senior Brother Mo Wuji was leading this time. They had only joined the sect for a few months and could not violate the elder's meaning.
"Wuji, I know that you only entered the sect a few months earlier than us. According to the order of entry, you are indeed the Senior Brother. But my Heavenly Mortal Sect will aim to be a top-notch sect in the future, so the capable shall lead. I hope to ask Hall Master Mo for advice. If I lose, I will definitely take Hall Master Mo as the leader and regard him as the Senior Brother." Not everyone would listen to Elder Wei Jie. As soon as Wei Jie left, a tall, jade-faced young man stood up.
Although Mo Wuji was only at the first level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm, he could tell at a glance that this guy should be at the ninth level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm.
Mo Wuji sighed secretly. If it were the original disciples of the Heavenly Mortal Sect, no one would have said this. The Heavenly Mortal Sect had recruited many new disciples, and the fraternity of the Heavenly Mortal Sect might gradually be lost, and then lose the most fundamental and precious spirit in the various power struggles.
He didn't know if this was a good thing or a bad thing. Where there are people, there is Jianghu. If Jianghu cannot be formed, there will be a lack of competitive awareness.
"What's your name?" Mo Wuji asked indifferently.
Mo Wuji was very clear that it wasn't Elder Wei Jie who asked him to lead the team, but Ancestor Master Pang Jie. Since Ancestor Master Pang Jie asked him to lead the team, he couldn't casually give up the title of Senior Brother. This would not only disappoint Pang Jie, but also be a great loss to his own interests.
If he led the team, even if the Heavenly Mortal Sect only had one spot to enter the Divine Domain Nest, he would have a chance to enter. If he gave up the status of leading the team, it would be equivalent to giving the opportunity to others. Mo Wuji understood this principle very well since he started out.
"I am Pu Yin, a disciple of the Main Peak. Please enlighten me, Hall Master Mo." The man who called himself Pu Yin walked out, cupped his fists at Mo Wuji, and did not summon a magical weapon.
The Heavenly Mortal Sect had not been restarted for long. Except for Mo Wuji, who had his own hall, all the disciples were under the Main Peak. After a certain period of time, there would be a sect competition. After the sect competition, the numerous disciples would be assigned to the various Divine Peaks and taught by the Peak Masters.
The Heavenly Mortal Sect had few Peak Masters, so these disciples were likely to become a Peak Lord like Mo Wuji in the future.
Pu Yin knew that Mo Wuji was also a disciple, and even if he was a Peak Lord, his status would not be higher than theirs, and his cultivation was far worse than his.
At the same time, he had also heard that the reason why Mo Wuji was selected as the Peak Lord was not because of his aptitude, but because he was good at welcoming guests. In Pu Yin's opinion, welcoming guests was something that handyman disciples did, and it was the work of inferior people. With no tigers on the mountain, the monkeys became kings. In Pu Yin's opinion, he was superior to Mo Wuji in every aspect, so he dared to stand up and challenge Mo Wuji's position. In his opinion, with his qualifications, he would definitely be a Peak Lord of the Heavenly Mortal Sect in the future.
Mo Wuji's gaze swept over the rest of the disciples and asked calmly, "Is there anyone else who, like Junior Brother Pu Yin, is somewhat dissatisfied with me being the Senior Brother?"
Hearing Mo Wuji still call himself Junior Brother without any scruples, Pu Yin's face turned a little red.
A woman in red stood up and cupped her fists, saying, "Hall Master Mo, I am Dan Ya, a disciple of the Main Peak. We admire Hall Master Mo's ability very much. You have done a great job in welcoming the Ancestor Master's audience to my Heavenly Mortal Sect. I still think Senior Brother Pu Yin is right. Going to the Divine Domain Nest is not for sightseeing, but for competition. Senior Brother Pu Yin is at the ninth level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm. I think he is more likely to succeed."
Dan Ya was very beautiful. Her figure was curvy, and her voice was crisp and sweet. Her cultivation was not weak, at the eighth level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm.
As soon as Dan Ya finished speaking, someone stood up again. This time, it was a short and fat guy with the fifth level of the Spirit Nurturing Realm. He also smiled and cupped his fists, saying, "I am Jiao Xiangqi, a disciple of the Main Peak. Hall Master Mo, I also think Senior Brother Pu Yin is right. As Senior Sister Dan Ya said, we are not going for sightseeing…"
