Chapter 236: Such a Battleship

The temporary bravery faded, and they saw tens of thousands of extra-territorial cultivators leaving the battlefield to harvest all life from the various sects and the Lost Continent. The cultivators of the Hundred Sects Alliance had lost their edge and were completely unable to fight back.

Tens of thousands of extra-territorial cultivators also ceased their attacks, merely watching as their comrades slaughtered the remaining cultivators of the Hundred Sects Alliance. They also prevented anyone from escaping, showing that they truly intended to exterminate them all in this battle.

Whether it was the cultivators of the Lost Continent or the extra-territorial cultivators, everyone knew that this battle was over. The Lost Continent would soon disappear, and it would become a new continent where everyone came from the Floating Ruo Star.

Just then, a spaceship rushed over from afar. Dozens of people stood at the front of the spaceship, and a black-haired, white-bearded man suddenly rushed out of the spaceship and pounced towards the extra-territorial cultivators.

Several True God Realm extra-territorial powerhouses immediately went to meet him.

"Boom boom boom!" Violent primordial energy exploded in the air, and several figures fell from the void, without a trace of breath left.

The sudden change caused everyone to hold their breath, and even the fierce battles on the battlefield slowed down. One person fighting against several True God Realm experts, and in a simple face-to-face confrontation, several True God Realm experts were directly bombarded and killed. Was this a dream? Where did such a powerhouse come from on the Lost Continent?

...

On a mountain peak far from the Yin Tomb Beach, Mo Wuji stared intently at the direction of the battlefield filled with bloody aura.

"Sect Leader Brother, should I go take a look?" Pu Qian said proactively, seeing that Mo Wuji seemed a little worried.

Mo Wuji nodded. "Good, you control this spaceship to go over there. If you encounter any situation, come back immediately."

"Yes." Pu Qian immediately controlled the spaceship and headed towards the Yin Tomb Beach.

"Yi Ping, tell me about the location of the Heavenly Mystery Sect." Mo Wuji said, casually grabbing a laser cannon shell and looking at it.

Sang Yi Ping hummed and said, "The Heavenly Mystery Sect is actually on the edge of the Minghan Empire, its position forming a three-legged stand with the Great Yan Sect and the Asking Heaven Academy. Of course, that's just what the people of my Heavenly Mystery Sect think; others may not even know there is a Heavenly Mystery Sect."

"The Minghan Empire was the first to be destroyed by the extra-territorial cultivators, right? I heard that the capital of the Minghan Empire, Da Ke, was also occupied by the extra-territorial cultivators," Mo Wuji asked.

Sang Yi Ping replied, "Da Ke City of the Minghan Empire was indeed occupied by the extra-territorial cultivators, but the Minghan Empire still exists. My Heavenly Mystery Sect is on the edge of the Minghan Empire and hasn't been noticed. The Heavenly Mystery Sect occupies a few hundred *li*, with one main peak and over a hundred auxiliary peaks, all naturally formed. A river runs through the middle, which we named the Heavenly Mystery River. You could say that the Heavenly Mystery Sect is a natural sect; even many of the auxiliary peaks of the Great Yan Sect were built by humans later."

"With such a good location for a sect, why hasn't a large sect snatched it away?" Mo Wuji asked with puzzlement.

"Because although the environment and location of the Heavenly Mystery Sect are good, it is a spirit-leaking place. The spiritual energy here is scarce; even with a spirit-gathering array, it's impossible to gather dense spiritual energy," Sang Yi Ping answered.

Mo Wuji suddenly understood. The existence of a sect is naturally to pursue and inherit stronger power, not to live in seclusion. If the sect doesn't have a good place to cultivate, it naturally can't pursue strong power, just like his Lotus Sword Peak in the Without Trace Sword Sect. The Heavenly Mystery Sect's location lacks spiritual energy, so it's normal that other sects don't see it as worthwhile.

"After we go back, I'll find a way to set up a large array to protect the Heavenly Mystery River and all the mountain peaks, and at the same time rebuild Heavenly Mystery Peak," Mo Wuji said immediately. It didn't matter that the spiritual energy was scarce; he had powerful array dao skills and even carried a good spiritual vein with him.

Sang Yi Ping shook her head. "Sect Leader Brother, I'm afraid that won't work."

"Why?" Mo Wuji looked at Sang Yi Ping with puzzlement. Could it be that the terrain here was strange and couldn't establish a sect-protecting array?

Sang Yi Ping lowered her head and said, "Because most of the sect's hundred-plus auxiliary peaks have been rented out by others, and we only have one main peak and a dozen auxiliary peaks."

Mo Wuji was stunned. A sect renting out the auxiliary peaks of its location to others? This was the first time he had heard of it.

"Is the Heavenly Mystery Sect so short of spirit stones?" Mo Wuji frowned. Even if a sect was short of spirit stones, it shouldn't rent out its sect's location to others.

Sang Yi Ping sighed and said, "The two forces that rented dozens of mountains from the Heavenly Mystery Sect are the fourteenth prince of the Minghan Empire's emperor, who has a Minghan Sky Commerce Alliance under him. This alliance is built in my Heavenly Mystery Sect to make money for him, and it also gathers a group of desperadoes. The second is a mountain stronghold, which is attached to the twenty-sixth prince of the Minghan Empire and specializes in doing dark deeds. As for the rent, my Heavenly Mystery Sect hasn't seen a single copper coin to this day."

A feeling of lament arose in Mo Wuji's heart, lament for the Heavenly Mystery Sect. The Heavenly Mystery Sect was at least a cultivation sect, yet it was held by the throat by a mortal empire's prince and had to rent out its sect's residence to them. It was truly a great irony.

"The Minghan Empire has many Earth Realm experts, and my Heavenly Mystery Sect is just a Mysterious Grade sect, unable to fight against them," Sang Yi Ping's voice gradually lowered, clearly feeling stifled and wronged.

Just as Mo Wuji was about to speak, he suddenly saw Pu Qian's spaceship rushing back shakily.

Something was wrong. Mo Wuji immediately sent the laser cannon shell into the laser cannon and said to the other three, "Each of you guard one of the cannons, and then turn the cannons towards Pu Qian's spaceship. Wait for my order."

"Yes." Without Mo Wuji saying so, the three of Sang Yi Ping also knew that something was wrong. Pu Qian's spaceship had been injured by someone.

A moment later, Pu Qian's spaceship landed, and Pu Qian rushed out and shouted, "Those people are beasts, complete beasts. They are carrying out an extermination massacre on a county, killing everyone, adults and children, as long as they are alive..."

Mo Wuji's face darkened, and murderous intent rose in his heart. He came from Earth, and what angered him the most was this kind of senseless and inhuman mad slaughter, which was behavior even worse than that of beasts. Beasts kill people only because they are hungry.

"They're coming..." Nie Zheng Nong's tone was slightly trembling.

Everyone saw it. Dozens of spaceships were coming over the sky, and each spaceship was filled with cultivators. Every cultivator was filled with murderous intent and covered in blood, like evil ghosts crawling out of hell.

"There are probably close to ten thousand people..." If Nie Zheng Nong could still control his voice from trembling too much, Zhuang Yan's voice was completely out of control.

With so many people coming over, could they still survive like before?

Pu Qian had entered the warship and said, "At least ten thousand. The most powerful of them is a Void God Realm expert; my spaceship was almost taken down by him in the air..."

Speaking of this, Pu Qian seemed to remember something and exclaimed, "Sect Leader Brother, I messed up. I should have led them away..."

They did have warships here, and various ship cannons, but the other party had too many people. As long as a few True Lake Realm experts slipped through the net, they could kill them.

Mo Wuji said in a deep voice, "I wanted you to lead them here. Pu Qian, you also choose a laser cannon. After we fire, wait for my order to attack. Even if we die here, we have to take a few with us."

"Yes." Hearing Mo Wuji's words, everyone's confidence inexplicably increased, and everyone's hand was on the firing position of the turret.

The group of extra-territorial spaceships became clearer and clearer, and Mo Wuji's spiritual will could clearly see the faces of the people on the ships.

He waved his hand and said, "Each of you choose a spaceship. I'll choose the main ship. Start firing now!"

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!" Four consecutive loud noises rang out, and four differently colored shells shot out of the warship. The terrifying spatial fluctuations made the people firing the shells feel frightened.

Mo Wuji's laser cannon brought out a dazzling white light, and then he saw a faint black crack. A vast aura leaked out of the crack, and Mo Wuji couldn't help but shudder.

Fortunately, the crack disappeared quickly, disappearing in no time.

A violent explosion rang out in the void, and a terrifying fire almost burned half the sky, completely obscuring the sight of Mo Wuji and the others.

Heat swept over, and even with the cultivation of Mo Wuji and Pu Qian, they were sweating profusely from the heat.

"Sect Leader Brother, what's going on? Why is it that all I see is white light and flames?" Sang Yi Ping asked with a trembling voice. She was also frightened. With one shot, half the sky was burning with flames, and as for the spaceships of the extra-territorial cultivators, they couldn't be seen at all now.

"Should we fire a few more shots?" Zhuang Yan said excitedly. Although she didn't know the situation, she knew that the power of this cannon was really too terrifying.

Mo Wuji took a deep breath and said after a long while, "No need to shoot anymore. I underestimated the power of this cannon. In fact, we only need to fire one shell. I was too wasteful. I actually fired four shells. It's a good thing Pu Qian didn't move."

Compared to the others who couldn't see anything, Mo Wuji's spiritual will had long clearly seen the situation of the extra-territorial spaceship group. Under these five shots, not to mention the group of extra-territorial spaceships, even the surrounding ground had been blasted into a deep sea. And there wasn't a single drop of water on it; all the water had been burned away by a Heavenly Fire cannon shell.

A full stick of incense time passed before the flames dissipated and the white light in the sky disappeared. In front of them, besides a long, deep gully, there wasn't even a shadow of a spaceship left.

"Sect Leader Brother, did we destroy all those spaceships?" Zhuang Yan asked in surprise.

Mo Wuji nodded. "That's right. Not only were those spaceships destroyed by us, but not even a trace of them was left. That gully is what our cannon shells left behind."

The five people gasped at the same time, staring blankly at the emptiness in front of them. This kind of terrifying warship, even if it were to destroy the Asking Heaven Academy, probably wouldn't have any problems, right?

"So powerful," Pu Qian exclaimed after a long while.
