Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 789 This Time It's An Impasse
Mo Wuji smiled slightly, "It's alright, let's go. I'll avenge Little Yu. By the way, where is Little Yu's body?"
Yan Yuerong's eyes reddened, "My ring was also taken away. Little Yu's body is inside my ring."
"Do you know the person who took your ring? When did it happen?" Mo Wuji asked. He was a very sentimental person.
Xiao Xiaoyu and Yan Yuerong were both considered his friends from his mortal life, and he valued these friends even more. He wouldn't have cared if he hadn't known about Xiaoyu's accident, but now that he did, and it happened right under his nose, how could Mo Wuji ignore it?
"It was more than half a year ago. That person had a very fierce appearance and a bloody killing aura." Even now, when Yan Yuerong spoke of that person, she couldn't help but shudder.
If her Hidden Water Spiritual Root hadn't suddenly awakened, she would have been tortured to death by that person more than half a year ago. Because her Hidden Water Spiritual Root awakened, she was sent to the auction.
Mo Wuji nodded. This person handed Yan Yuerong over to the Heaven Zenith Auction. After killing Wu Li, he would go directly to the auction to inquire.
"Your aura is chaotic. It should be caused by not cultivating for a long time, and your mind being suppressed. I'm going to debate with that Wu Li, you stay here and cultivate while you wait for me. This ring is for you, there are some cultivation resources inside." After Mo Wuji finished speaking, he took out a ring and handed it to Yan Yuerong.
As soon as Yan Yuerong heard Mo Wuji's words, she knew that she couldn't persuade Great Wilderness Bro not to go to the Dao Debate Stage. She said without hesitation, "Great Wilderness Bro, I'll go with you. Even if I stay here, I won't be able to focus on cultivating. I want to watch Great Wilderness Bro avenge Sister Xiaoyu."
Mo Wuji thought it made sense. He knew what Yan Yuerong was thinking. If he failed in the debate, Yan Yuerong would still not escape the fate of being a slave.
"Since that's the case, let's go." Mo Wuji handed the ring to Yan Yuerong casually.
…
The Outer Heaven Dao Arena hadn't been this lively in a long time. The reason was naturally very simple: it was Wu Li's first Dao debate after advancing to Immortal Reverence.
Since Wu Li came to Universe Corner, he had debated with others no less than a hundred times. Each debate never lasted more than half an incense stick at most, simply because Wu Li was too powerful.
Outer Heaven Rest Building was the closest rest building to the Outer Heaven Dao Arena.
At this moment, two people were sitting on the top floor of the Outer Heaven Rest Building. One was an old man with a long beard, his aura completely restrained, looking as ordinary as Mo Wuji. Anyone who saw this old man would never think of him as a member of the Demon Race.
In fact, this old man was not only from the Demon Race, but also a top powerhouse of the Demon Race, Ji Ku. Ji Ku had entered the Great Immortal Emperor realm for over a million years. Although no one had ever fought with him, many people speculated that Ji Ku had already entered the level of Dao Emperor.
The other person had a fair complexion and no beard, and was of medium height, looking very refined and elegant.
This man didn't seem to have any imposing manner sitting here. In fact, no one who knew him dared to be presumptuous in front of him. This person was called Feng Huang, the Dao Lord of Universe Corner.
Feng Huang was famous not because many people knew him, nor because he was the Dao Lord of Universe Corner. It was because he had another identity: one of the five great Immortal Emperors of the Outer Heaven Universe.
In the Outer Heaven Universe, countless races were concentrated here. There were hundreds of races that could be named.
With so many races gathered here, coupled with the abundant cultivation resources, Immortal Emperors were not uncommon experts at all. Even Great Immortal Emperors were very numerous in this place.
The Outer Heaven Five Great Immortal Emperors were naturally the five strongest Immortal Emperors here. Feng Huang's ability to be among the Five Great Immortal Emperors was naturally extremely powerful.
"Hehe, Wu Li should have kicked an iron plate this time. With Mo Wuji's temperament, Wu Li is probably unlikely to survive. It can only be said that he is too arrogant, not even investigating the origins of the cultivator he's debating with." Ji Ku glanced at the Dao Debate Stage in the arena and leisurely picked up his wine cup for a sip.
Feng Huang smiled slightly, "Brother Ji may not know Wu Li well. I can guarantee that he not only knows Mo Wuji's origins, but has also investigated Mo Wuji in detail."
Ji Ku was stunned for a moment, and said somewhat suspiciously, "Mo Wuji killed two Immortal Emperors of the Mi Fei Merchant Association many years ago, and recently killed Immortal Emperor Yu Xing in the Outer Heaven Bazaar. Wu Li is only at the early stage of Immortal Reverence, how can he debate with Mo Wuji?"
"Confidence." Feng Huang said calmly, "Others say that Wu Li is one of the three great Immortal Kings of Universe Corner. In fact, I think Wu Li is the number one Immortal King of Universe Corner. Moreover, what he does is not as arrogant and violent as he shows. You see, every time he looks for someone to debate, he always has a purpose. After each debate, his aptitude and confidence will increase by a level. Not only that, he has also built a great reputation in Universe Corner.
Over the years, I have never seen anyone from the God Race stand up to support Wu Li, but Wu Li is still thriving, and no one dares to provoke him. This gives people a psychological suggestion that Wu Li is the strongest, whether in the God Race or in Universe Corner. It can be seen that once the competition for Universe Corner begins in the future, Wu Li will have great popularity."
"That Mo Wuji is here..." Feng Huang also drank a glass of wine, said that Mo Wuji was here, and continued, "Wu Li dares to challenge Mo Wuji because he thinks he can easily destroy an Immortal Emperor at the early stage, and is invincible at the same level. As for Mo Wuji using several trapping and killing arrays to self-destruct and kill Ou Zhaohe and Ling Rong back then, Wu Li probably didn't take it seriously at all. It's a pity, he really found the wrong person this time."
…
People like Feng Huang and Ji Ku knew Mo Wuji's origins and what Mo Wuji had done over the years. Many people in the Outer Heaven Dao Arena didn't know.
At this moment, Wu Li was already standing on the Dao Debate Stage with his hands behind his back. Where was there any trace of anger or arrogance? It was as if he was watching the sunrise and sunset, and his whole body appeared peaceful.
"That person shouldn't dare to come, right? He hasn't come yet?"
"Just a fool. The least lacking thing in Universe Corner is fools."
"Senior Wu Li is really too powerful. Although each debate ends quickly, I can feel the powerful Dao rhythm…"
"That's for sure. What I'm wondering is why the casinos of the major chambers of commerce haven't opened any betting odds this time?"
"That person is here…"
As someone spread the news that Mo Wuji had arrived, the Outer Heaven Dao Arena quieted down, and everyone shifted their gaze from the Dao Debate Stage to Mo Wuji, who was walking over. As for Yan Yuerong, who was following behind Mo Wuji, she was directly ignored.
Yan Yuerong was a Hidden Water Spiritual Root. In the eyes of many bystanders, Mo Wuji would soon be killed by Wu Li, and Yan Yuerong would eventually be Wu Li's.
"Yuerong Junior Sister, you wait for me here. I'll be down soon after the debate." Mo Wuji walked over with Yan Yuerong, and the surrounding people consciously made way.
Yan Yuerong took a deep breath and looked at Mo Wuji firmly, "Great Wilderness Bro, go ahead. I'll wait for you here. I'm not afraid."
Mo Wuji nodded, and took a step into the air onto the Dao Debate Stage, standing in front of Wu Li.
He sighed in his heart. It seemed that ever since he started cultivating, his opponents had always been one or two levels stronger than him. Today was the first time he faced a guy whose cultivation was weaker than his. It seemed that this guy was very confident. Early stage Immortal Reverence challenging his peak stage Immortal Reverence.
"If you had stepped into the Immortal Emperor realm, perhaps you would have a chance to face me. Unfortunately, you are very irrational." Wu Li looked at Mo Wuji with a calm and gentle tone, without any of the arrogance he showed at the auction.
Mo Wuji was amused. To be honest, he had never lost to anyone at the same realm. The closest guy to him was Lei Hongji. Back then, both of them were at the Perfected Great Luo Immortal realm, but Lei Hongji had to run away. Who gave this Wu Li his confidence?
Wu Li said lightly, "No one who debates with me at the same realm has ever walked off the Dao Debate Stage alive…"
Mo Wuji was too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy. With a wave of his hand, the Half Moon Heavy Halberd landed in his palm. The heavy halberd drew a half-moon arc in the air, and he said in an icy tone, "Keep the nonsense for when you are in reincarnation. Little Yu fell here more than half a year ago, today I will avenge Little Yu…"
A faint halberd light of killing intent rolled out. Wu Li took half a step forward in the air, and his domain directly rolled towards Mo Wuji. At this moment, it became difficult to breathe on the entire Dao Debate Stage. So what if Mo Wuji could kill an Immortal Emperor at the early stage across levels? He, Wu Li, had just advanced to the early stage of Immortal Reverence, and he had also killed an Immortal Emperor at the early stage.
A round golden seal was sacrificed by Wu Li, instantly obscuring the space of this side of the Dao Debate Stage.
Mo Wuji slashed out with his halberd, the second divine ability of the Four Paths of the Heavy Halberd, Long River. After cultivating in seclusion for twenty years, Mo Wuji's understanding of Desert, Long River, and Sunset was no longer as uneven as before.
His Four Paths of the Heavy Halberd was now a series of artistic conception divine abilities. The first divine ability, Desert, was to transform into billions of array flags.
Dealing with an early stage Immortal Reverence like Wu Li, Mo Wuji was too lazy to be serious. Transform into billions of array flags? Wu Li thought too highly of himself. If Mo Wuji didn't know that Wu Li was definitely extraordinary, he wouldn't even bother to use Long River.
The silver Long River fell from the sky, instantly sweeping the killing momentum of the entire space of the Dao Debate Stage, turning it into a shrill white training of killing intent.
At this moment, the oppressive feeling brought by Wu Li's domain dissipated instantly, and the killing intent filled all the gaps around Wu Li. Wu Li's face changed, and he realized for the first time that he was too careless. The Mo Wuji in front of him was definitely not just able to kill an Immortal Emperor at the early stage. I'm afraid even if a Great Immortal Emperor came, this guy could kill him easily.
In just half a move, he knew that he had really kicked an iron plate this time. Even if he used all his means, he would not be the opponent of the other party.
