"Clang!" Another explosion echoed as the Dragon Bone Claw's speed was completely slowed down. However, Mo Wuji noticed that the claw still curved around, its speed increasing again as it tried to shoot back.

Was this a spiritual weapon? Mo Wuji had never used a real spiritual weapon before. The alchemy furnace he had used before could only barely be considered one. Not having used one didn't mean Mo Wuji didn't know about them. He knew that spiritual weapons were imprinted with the cultivator's spiritual mark.

Although Shao Guangjing could imprint spiritual marks into his spiritual weapon, he was only a Yuan Dan cultivator. His spiritual will hadn't even fully formed yet, and it certainly wouldn't be stronger than his own.

Understanding this, Mo Wuji's spiritual will suddenly enveloped the Dragon Bone Claw, beginning to destroy the spiritual mark within.

Mo Wuji didn't have any spiritual will cultivation techniques. He possessed his spiritual will due to the accidental consumption of the Spirit Strengthening Pill. If he were facing Shao Guangjing directly, even if his spiritual will was stronger, he wouldn't be able to destroy the other party's spiritual weapon mark in front of a Yuan Dan expert.

But Shao Guangjing had underestimated Mo Wuji too much. He was fighting someone else, yet he tried to kill Mo Wuji from dozens of meters away.

As Mo Wuji's spiritual will enveloped the Dragon Bone Claw, he instantly found Shao Guangjing's spiritual mark. He had destroyed Qi Laoshi's spiritual imprint before, but only through splitting the pill. Because Qi Laoshi's strength was too great, he hadn't dared to use his spiritual will to directly bombard Qi Laoshi's spiritual mark.

Now, facing Shao Guangjing's spiritual mark, Mo Wuji had no such reservations. His powerful spiritual will slammed into Shao Guangjing's spiritual mark. After only three strikes, he directly tore a hole in it.

After tearing a hole in Shao Guangjing's spiritual mark, Mo Wuji's spiritual will instantly found a way. He destroyed Shao Guangjing's spiritual mark at the fastest speed.

The Dragon Bone Claw, originally charging wildly, immediately became lifeless after the spiritual mark was destroyed by Mo Wuji, falling to the ground limply.

Remembering that this thing had almost killed him, Mo Wuji still smashed down on the Dragon Bone Claw with his staff after it landed on the ground.

…

Shao Guangjing had discovered Mo Wuji, and Ren Tianxing also vaguely sensed someone nearby. Although he hadn't sensed Mo Wuji's specific strength, the fact that Mo Wuji could be sensed by Shao Guangjing, and that Shao Guangjing wanted to kill him, meant that Mo Wuji's strength wasn't very high.

He chose to strike when Shao Guangjing attacked Mo Wuji, which could be considered a form of self-consolation. Having escaped from Shao Guangjing here, he knew how powerful Shao Guangjing's Dragon Bone Claw was. Ren Tianxing was even prepared for Shao Guangjing to retract the Dragon Bone Claw and attack him instead.

Neither he nor Shao Guangjing had expected that Shao Guangjing's Dragon Bone Claw wouldn't return.

Not only would it not return, but before Ren Tianxing's sword radiance could reach Shao Guangjing, Shao Guangjing spat out a mouthful of blood essence, momentarily faltering.

Ren Tianxing was, after all, a favored genius of the Wentian School. Not to mention how many battles he had experienced, his knowledge was definitely not something ordinary rogue cultivators could compare to.

The instant Shao Guangjing spat blood, he knew that Shao Guangjing's spiritual weapon's spiritual mark had been broken. This was an excellent opportunity, because the moment a spiritual weapon's mark was broken, the person would be in an extremely weakened state. This state was fleeting.

Ren Tianxing, who had originally reserved some strength to continue escaping, held nothing back, his sword radiance transforming into streaks of sword rainbows. All of these sword rainbows pierced into Shao Guangjing's body the instant his spiritual weapon's mark was broken, bringing out seven or eight streams of blood from Shao Guangjing's body.

Shao Guangjing screamed, tearing the air. A sense of fear suddenly rose in his heart. It wasn't about him killing these two ants anymore, but whether he could escape.

"Die!" While Shao Guangjing was still in the air, a staff shadow slammed down.

The instant Ren Tianxing struck Shao Guangjing, Mo Wuji leaped out of the cave, swinging his Heavenly Machine Staff in mid-air.

When one's strength is insufficient, one must seize the opportunity. If one's strength is insufficient and one doesn't seize the opportunity, then living will be difficult. This was Mo Wuji's feeling after coming to this continent.

The reason he could kill two Spirit Building cultivators when he was only at the Meridian Opening Stage was not because his strength was much greater than theirs. It was because he could trade his life for theirs, and then seize the opportunity at the moment of the trade.

Now, Mo Wuji's sudden sneak attack was seizing the best opportunity.

Shao Guangjing, seriously injured, also felt the killing intent of Mo Wuji's staff, and his soul was immediately scattered. If he had another chance, he would never provoke Mo Wuji. Even if he had to provoke him, he would wait until he killed Ren Tianxing first.

Mo Wuji's timing was perfect, and Shao Guangjing was severely injured. However, the difference between Mo Wuji's and Shao Guangjing's cultivation strength was too great. Just as the Heavenly Machine Staff was about to hit Shao Guangjing's waist, Shao Guangjing actually rose a bit higher into the air again.

"Crack!" The Heavenly Machine Staff struck Shao Guangjing's ankle, directly shattering it.

Mo Wuji was secretly shocked by Shao Guangjing's power. Even injured like this, he could still gather Qi in the air. If he hadn't intercepted him, Ren Tianxing might not have been able to keep Shao Guangjing here.

"Pfft, pfft!" Two sword radiances also pierced through Shao Guangjing's chest at the same time. Ren Tianxing landed beside Shao Guangjing, holding his broken sword.

"Who are you? How could you destroy my spiritual weapon imprint…" Knowing that he would hardly escape today, Shao Guangjing stared at Mo Wuji, unwilling to accept his fate.

Being able to destroy his spiritual mark in such a short time during a battle could only be done by a Void God cultivator. Mo Wuji was clearly not a Void God, so how did he do it?

Mo Wuji landed on the ground, stomping his Heavenly Machine Staff down. "Who I am is not important. What's important is that you shouldn't have provoked me."

If Shao Guangjing hadn't provoked him, Mo Wuji wouldn't have taken action, even though he didn't have a good impression of Shao Guangjing. He wouldn't have stayed here to watch the show either. He would have left this place as soon as possible, not helping anyone. Since Shao Guangjing had provoked him and there was such an opportunity, how could he let Shao Guangjing go?

"That's right, I shouldn't have provoked you…" After Shao Guangjing finished speaking, foam mixed with blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Ren Tianxing's long sword had already fallen again, this time drawing a bloodstain directly on Shao Guangjing's forehead.

"Ren Tianxing, a true disciple of the Wentian School's Dao sect, thanks friend for your help." After killing Shao Guangjing, Ren Tianxing immediately hung the broken sword on his back and clasped his fist at Mo Wuji.

As for Shao Guangjing's storage bag, he didn't even touch it.

Seeing that Ren Tianxing didn't intend to harm him, Mo Wuji also put away the Heavenly Machine Staff. That's right, Ren Tianxing was a true disciple of the Wentian School. Even if the Bira Sect knew he had killed Shao Guangjing, so what? No matter how powerful the Bira Sect was, the Wentian School wouldn't take them seriously. So Ren Tianxing didn't need to silence him.

"Mo Wuji, an outer disciple of the Wentian School, greets Senior Brother Ren." Mo Wuji also clasped his fist and said.

Only now did he have the opportunity to observe Ren Tianxing. Ren Tianxing had bronze skin and a very distinct facial contour, but his eyes were slightly narrow.

Ren Tianxing revealed a surprised expression. "Junior Brother Mo, you are also from the Wentian School?"

Mo Wuji nodded, saying without any embarrassment, "Of course. Because I heard Senior Brother say he was from the Wentian School, I naturally had to help."

"Good, good…" After saying several "good"s in a row, Ren Tianxing pointed to Shao Guangjing's storage bag and said, "Junior Brother Mo, this storage bag and everything inside are yours."

Mo Wuji quickly waved his hand. "How can that be? Senior Brother put in the most effort to deal with that old bastard Shao Guangjing. I only helped a little. How dare I take these things?"

Ren Tianxing laughed. "I come from the Wentian School's Dao sect, so I have plenty of cultivation resources. I'm here more for training. This storage bag really isn't much to me. Junior Brother Mo, don't be polite with me. If Junior Brother still feels bad, I'll take that Dragon Bone Claw."

Mo Wuji was certain that Ren Tianxing wasn't deliberately saying this, but truly thought so. He then thanked him, "Since that's the case, then I won't be polite."

"It's alright. Junior Brother, go ahead and collect the storage bag. I need to use the place where Junior Brother was cultivating earlier to heal my injuries for a while." After Ren Tianxing finished speaking, he jumped straight into the cave where Mo Wuji had been cultivating.

From Ren Tianxing's swaying body, Mo Wuji could tell that Ren Tianxing's injuries were severe.

He walked to Shao Guangjing's side and reached out to pull off Shao Guangjing's storage bag.

Shao Guangjing was at the Yuan Dan Stage, and his spiritual will hadn't fully formed. Mo Wuji easily destroyed the mark Shao Guangjing had left on the storage bag, and then imprinted his own mark.

When Mo Wuji's spiritual will scanned Shao Guangjing's storage bag, he was immediately overjoyed. Shao Guangjing's storage bag contained at least tens of thousands of Earth-grade spirit stones. That wasn't the main point. The main point was that Shao Guangjing's storage bag was much larger than his own. His storage bag couldn't fit that huge piece of material, but Shao Guangjing's storage bag definitely could.

Besides these, there was also a long sword in Shao Guangjing's storage bag. When Mo Wuji's spiritual will landed on the long sword, he knew that it was another spiritual weapon.

As for the various pills and medicinal herbs, they were secondary to Mo Wuji. Mo Wuji was an Earth-grade alchemist himself, so he didn't care about these pills at all.

Mo Wuji waved his hand and blasted a large pit in the dry riverbed. He tossed Shao Guangjing into the pit and pushed some soil to bury him. Seeing that Shao Guangjing had given him such a large storage bag, he would help bury him once.

Ren Tianxing was still healing, so Mo Wuji quickly left this place and dug up the Immortal Sunflower Metal buried underground, putting it into the new storage bag.

After doing all this, when Mo Wuji returned, Ren Tianxing had already left the cave where Mo Wuji had been cultivating. Apart from the broken sword on his back, there were no traces of any battle on his body.

"Junior Brother Mo, I wonder what your plans are after this?" Seeing Mo Wuji come over, Ren Tianxing clasped his fist and asked with a smile. He was very puzzled. How could Mo Wuji, with such strength, be an outer disciple?
