Old Five is a Goose.
Chapter 729 The Powerful Luo Book
Murong Xiangyu's face turned cold, and she said in a chilly voice, "That's my business. My patience is limited. I advise you to return the Book of Luo to me quickly, or don't blame me for turning hostile."
Mo Wuji laughed heartily, "Murong Xiangyu, do you even have any shame? How come I didn't know? Return the Book of Luo to you? If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have even seen the cover of the Book of Luo. I saved you and helped you keep seven chapters of the Book of Luo. I was being generous. If it were someone else, your bones would have been gone long ago. Two chapters of the Book of Luo were to repay my life-saving grace. In other words, even if you had given me all seven chapters of the Book of Luo back then, it wouldn't have been too much. Now you're actually asking me for the Book of Luo. Tell me, do you even have any shame?"
Mo Wuji was telling the truth. If it were anyone else, even if they had saved Murong Xiangyu, they would never have failed to take the Book of Luo. It was only right and proper for Murong Xiangyu to use seven chapters of the Book of Luo to save her life. Murong Xiangyu only gave two chapters of the Book of Luo to Mo Wuji, which was already extremely excessive. Now, she even wanted Mo Wuji to return it to her. Indeed, she was being shameless. Mo Wuji saved Murong Xiangyu not for the Book of Luo. If Murong Xiangyu hadn't been so shameless, he wouldn't have been the kind of person to harp on such favors.
Unfortunately, Murong Xiangyu didn't think that way. It was only right that Mo Wuji saved her, because she was meant to stand at the highest point, she was meant to be respected by others. As for her giving two chapters of the Book of Luo to Mo Wuji, that was because she was ignorant back then. How could she not take it back now?
Even if she hadn't seen Mo Wuji here, she would have searched for Mo Wuji everywhere in the future to take back his Book of Luo.
She knew better than anyone how terrifying the Book of Luo was. If refining one chapter of the Book of Luo was a hundred points of power, then refining two chapters of the Book of Luo became two hundred points, three chapters became four hundred points...
This kind of power increased exponentially. She was only at the early stage of the Immortal King realm, but she was certain that she could fight even against Immortal King late stage cultivators. The reason was that she had refined five chapters of the Book of Luo. The Book of Luo was profound and immeasurable, its Dao aura vast like the sea. This kind of treasure only Murong Xiangyu was worthy of owning.
In the past, her strength wasn't the strongest, but she obtained the Book of Luo, which meant that the Book of Luo rightfully belonged to her.
"You're courting death..." Murong Xiangyu's patience ran out, and she raised her hand, unfurling a plain white silk ribbon, which transformed into thousands of strands of icy coldness, enveloping Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji raised his hand and directly pulled Su Rou'er and Dou Hualong out of the battle zone, then summoned his Half Moon Heavy Halberd.
The vortex domain instantly expanded, and the space around them, which had been frozen by Murong Xiangyu's icy coldness, emitted a sound like real cracking at that moment.
Mo Wuji's Half Moon Heavy Halberd transformed into a river of halberd light, slashing over. Not to mention that Mo Wuji had already treated Murong Xiangyu as a stranger, even if she were a familiar person, her strength didn't qualify her to be shown mercy in front of Murong Xiangyu.
Murong Xiangyu felt her icy domain shatter inch by inch, and her heart trembled. She was in the Immortal King realm, and her domain was a unique icy domain. Even if Mo Wuji was also an Immortal King, he couldn't directly shatter her domain with his domain.
But the fact was that her domain was no match for Mo Wuji's domain, and it was easily shattered by Mo Wuji's vortex domain.
Because she knew that Mo Wuji's cultivation method was a bit strange, and it was difficult to see his cultivation level. So before she made her move, she was sure that Mo Wuji was at most a Grand Essence Immortal. Considering Mo Wuji as a Grand Essence Immortal, she was already highly regarding Mo Wuji.
After all, it had only been a few years. Not everyone could be like her, possessing a treasure like the Book of Luo. The Book of Luo contained worlds, and the worlds within the Book of Luo could not only stack space but also stack time. Her advancement to the Immortal King realm didn't take just a few years, but rather she used the time acceleration within the Book of Luo.
But now, the strength displayed by Mo Wuji was more than just that of a Grand Essence Immortal? It was as if he was an Immortal King.
With her domain shattered, Murong Xiangyu no longer dared to treat Mo Wuji as an ant. Her hands conjured endless hand seals, and then she summoned a chapter of the Book of Luo.
The Book of Luo instantly transformed into a stone arch bridge, and the stone arch bridge seemed to completely devour Mo Wuji's domain.
Mo Wuji felt his vortex domain being swept away by the archway under the stone arch bridge, and the next moment, it shattered inch by inch, just like Murong Xiangyu's icy domain.
Mo Wuji's immortal essence surged wildly, and the Milky Way halberd light gathered even more frantically, transforming into a dazzling light falling down.
The reason why his Long River divine ability didn't defeat Lei Hongji's Myriad Thunder Hammer wasn't because Lei Hongji's Myriad Thunder Hammer's thunder-based divine ability was powerful, but because Lei Hongji's Myriad Thunder Hammer was not only a thunder-based divine ability but also a power-based divine ability. His Long River wasn't perfect, so it was torn apart by the power of the Myriad Thunder Hammer. Later, he used the Rifting Domain Fist to destroy the Myriad Thunder Hammer.
He hadn't comprehended the power laws, nor did he have a power-based divine ability. However, his Rifting Domain Fist also carried the Dao rhythm aura of power, which had a similar effect to the Myriad Thunder Hammer.
Mo Wuji didn't believe that Murong Xiangyu, like Lei Hongji, possessed unparalleled power or could even use power-based divine abilities.
"Boom! Crack!" The Long River poured down, landing on Murong Xiangyu's stone arch bridge. The stone arch bridge emitted a cracking sound and disappeared.
A streak of blood stretched down from Murong Xiangyu's brow, seeping out some blood beads, giving a feeling of poignant beauty.
Murong Xiangyu's murderous intent became even more fierce, "So you have such courage, and you've also advanced to the Immortal King realm. It seems you've also refined the Book of Luo and used the time rules within the Book of Luo. Since that's the case, then die."
Murong Xiangyu let out a stern cry, and a magnificent and vast aura of profoundness pressed down on Mo Wuji, overwhelming the sky and covering the earth.
Mo Wuji felt that even his breathing was difficult. At this moment, his Dao rhythms seemed to be completely suppressed by this profound aura, and even his sea of consciousness stagnated. It was a crushing of the sedimentation of ancient culture, a crushing of the aura of vast history.
This was the essential great divine ability within the Book of Luo. Mo Wuji felt restless and uneasy. Under this crushing, he even felt his own insignificance.
He couldn't let this woman continue. Mo Wuji's heart surged with endless killing intent. So what if she was an Immortal King with five chapters of the Book of Luo? He would still kill her.
The Spirit Storage Meridian and Essence Storage Meridian operated crazily. Mo Wuji's hands slowly rotated, his speed much slower than Murong Xiangyu's.
Strands of life and death aura slowly seeped out from his hands. This was Mo Wuji's top-tier divine ability, the Wheel of Life and Death.
Using the Wheel of Life and Death in this situation, Mo Wuji had already disregarded his own life and death. If a strong person like Murong Xiangyu was allowed to leave, it would be a disaster if she encountered Cen Shuyin. Because he still had one chapter of the Book of Luo on Cen Shuyin.
Because of this, Mo Wuji had developed killing intent.
As soon as the death aura of the Wheel of Life and Death seeped out, Murong Xiangyu felt it, and her body trembled slightly. She really couldn't understand why Mo Wuji could still resist under the suppression of her five chapters of the Book of Luo's great Dao. But that death aura made her terrified. She felt that this aura surrounded her and Mo Wuji, and eventually one of them had to die.
Murong Xiangyu hesitated a little. She was very clear that she couldn't unleash even one ten-thousandth of the power of the Book of Luo right now. If she died here, wouldn't it be a waste?
The Book of Luo was on Mo Wuji, and she could take it back at any time. She didn't believe that Mo Wuji's cultivation could improve faster than her. When she advanced to the Immortal Reverent realm, and Mo Wuji was still in the Immortal King realm, she would come and deal with Mo Wuji.
Thinking of this, Murong Xiangyu waved her hand, and all five chapters of the Book of Luo were retracted by her. The next moment, she unfolded her figure and disappeared without a trace.
Unfortunately, she didn't know that only those below the Immortal King realm could enter the fourth level of the Shattered World, and Mo Wuji hadn't advanced to the Immortal King realm yet. If she knew that Mo Wuji could contend with her without advancing to the Immortal King realm, perhaps she wouldn't have left today.
Mo Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. Although he wanted to kill Murong Xiangyu, he was very clear in his heart that he couldn't kill her.
It wasn't that his strength was inferior to Murong Xiangyu, but that his magic treasures were inferior to Murong Xiangyu's Book of Luo. If Murong Xiangyu didn't have five chapters of the Book of Luo, even if Murong Xiangyu was an Immortal King, he could still kill her. But those five chapters of the Book of Luo were too powerful, so powerful that he couldn't stop them at all.
If Murong Xiangyu hadn't fled under his Wheel of Life and Death, it was very likely that he would have been devoured by the Wheel of Death in the end. Fortunately, he had gained a lot from this battle. After he went into seclusion, the next time they met, he would never be suppressed by the Book of Luo like he was today.
"Brother, this woman's cultivation is increasing so fast." Seeing Murong Xiangyu leave, Dou Hualong hurriedly walked over. He knew Murong Xiangyu.
Su Rou'er also walked over. Her vision was much higher than Dou Hualong's. She could see that Mo Wuji wasn't unable to defeat Murong Xiangyu, but that his magic treasures weren't as powerful as Murong Xiangyu's Book of Luo.
"Let's go, we'll go back now. This is not a place to stay for long." Mo Wuji said solemnly.
His Dao was indeed self-created, but his Dao was far from perfect. This time, he encountered several powerful opponents in the fourth level of the Shattered World.
Not to mention the heaven-defying Lei Hongji, even that Meng Yin San wasn't simple, and there was also Murong Xiangyu, who possessed five chapters of the Book of Luo and whose cultivation had reached the Immortal King realm.
...
Just as Mo Wuji had expected, when he led Su Rou'er and Dou Hualong out of the fourth level of the Shattered World, they weren't stopped. Although several top-tier divine senses swept over them as soon as they came out, no one took them seriously at all.
It wasn't until they left the Sharp Horn Immortal Ruins and boarded Mo Wuji's flying shuttle that Dou Hualong and Su Rou'er breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hualong, I'm going to the Ying Water Immortal City. The Karma Fire Red Lotus will be given to you after I arrive at the sect." Mo Wuji was worried that Dou Hualong wouldn't be able to conceal the aura of the Karma Fire Red Lotus for the time being and would be discovered by others. Once people knew that the Karma Fire Red Lotus was on Dou Hualong, the consequences would be endless.
Before Dou Hualong could speak, Su Rou'er took the initiative to say, "Senior Brother, Hualong is only in the Golden Immortal realm now. I think he needs to be at least in the Immortal King realm to use the Karma Fire Red Lotus. It's better for Senior Brother to use the Karma Fire Red Lotus first, to prevent encountering that woman again."
Su Rou'er didn't treat Dou Hualong as an outsider. That was why she said this.
