Sensing the hatred in Dai Nan Jian's tone, Mo Wuji asked, "Later, did Ku Zhu ask you to get the dark wood fragment?"
Dai Nan Jian shook her head. "He didn't ask me to, I took it to him willingly. To this day, I still don't understand why I would do such a crazy thing."
Mo Wuji thought to himself that it was normal for a woman in love to be crazy. Ku Zhu must have subtly hinted to Dai Nan Jian that he wanted the dark wood fragment, and as a result, Dai Nan Jian did it.
"Because the Dark Origin Hall's hall master is my brother, I was able to calmly enter and comprehend the dark attribute rules. After I stole the dark wood fragment for Ku Zhu, Ku Zhu actually disappeared. Originally, I planned to let Ku Zhu comprehend the dark wood fragment for a while, and then take it back after he stepped into the God Fusion realm. But I didn't expect Ku Zhu to disappear along with the dark wood fragment. Later, the Dark Origin Hall found out about me and imprisoned me..."
Dai Nan Jian shed two lines of tears as she said this, "I was imprisoned for less than a year before being nailed to the gate of the Dark Origin Hall, being burned by soul fire."
Mo Wuji didn't continue to ask. He was sure that Dai Nan Jian's brother, Dai Fang, had been killed. Otherwise, Dai Nan Jian wouldn't have been nailed to the Dark Origin Hall's gate.
Dai Nan Jian bowed to Mo Wuji again and said, "The reason I desperately wanted to live was to avenge my brother. My brother was ambushed and killed, and he only said one thing, 'Don't nail me up'."
Mo Wuji remained silent. He had seen many ungrateful people, and such things were too common in the cultivation world.
The dark wood fragment was retrieved by Dai Fang, and it could be said to be Dai Fang's personal property. Dai Fang took it out and led the establishment of the Dark Origin Hall. As a result, none of the people in the Dark World appreciated his contribution. Instead, because Dai Nan Jian took the dark wood fragment, they killed Dai Fang and nailed Dai Nan Jian to be burned for countless years.
Even if they wanted to settle accounts, they should go to that Ku Zhu. What did it have to do with Dai Fang?
"My brother died in front of me. He looked at me and cried as he died, 'I regret it so much...'" Dai Nan Jian wiped the tears from her eyes. "My brother and I grew up depending on each other, and I know why my brother said he regretted it. When he wanted to hand over the dark wood fragment, I told him not to hand it over, and to give it to me instead. But he told me that this was a matter for the entire Dark World, and we siblings couldn't be too selfish. He regretted establishing the Dark Origin Hall and handing over the dark wood fragment."
"Are you going to the Ku family to take revenge?" Mo Wuji was already certain that this dark wood fragment of his belonged to Dai Nan Jian. Dai Nan Jian gave the dark wood fragment to Ku Zhu, and as a result, Ku Zhu escaped with the dark wood fragment.
As for why Ku Zhu wanted to escape, Mo Wuji didn't know. But he knew that Ku Zhu had escaped to the God Domain, which caused a great battle. Ku Zhu was severely injured in the battle and escaped again, and then disappeared. And Ku Cai was definitely a descendant of Ku Zhu.
In any case, his dark wood fragment came from the Dai family, and he should give some compensation to Dai Nan Jian. As for whether Dai Nan Jian would destroy the Ku family, Mo Wuji didn't care at all. The Ku family was obviously not a good thing. Apart from Ku Cai, whom he knew, from Ku Xinren to Ku Zhu, none of them were good.
Dai Nan Jian bowed again and said, "Yes, my brother wholeheartedly served the Dark World, but he was still plotted against. The reason I'm unwilling to die is to avenge my brother."
Mo Wuji took out a ring and handed it to Dai Nan Jian. "There are some cultivation resources inside. Cultivate to the Quasi-Sage realm before you take revenge. With your current realm, it's probably not realistic to take revenge."
"Plop!" Dai Nan Jian suddenly knelt on the ground. "Senior, you saved my life and gave me the opportunity to avenge my brother. If I still want Senior's things, wouldn't Dai Nan Jian be a greedy and insatiable person? Junior can't even repay your kindness now, how can I take Senior's things?"
Mo Wuji sighed and thought to himself that this Dai Nan Jian was somewhat similar to her brother in character.
He waved his hand, and Dai Nan Jian stood up.
Dai Nan Jian looked at Mo Wuji in shock. Because she had been burned for countless years, her strength had reached the God Fusion realm. This was much higher than her cultivation before she was nailed and killed. In addition, her soul had been burned by soul fire for many years, and her sea of consciousness and divine mind were even more stable. She had only been in the mid-stage God King realm before she was nailed and killed.
With her current strength, Mo Wuji raised his hand and she involuntarily stood up. What kind of ability was this?
"The reason I'm taking out these cultivation resources for you, hoping you can quickly enter the Quasi-Sage realm, is because the dark wood fragment you gave to Ku Zhu back then ended up in my hands. It's also something your brother retrieved. I have no way to give you that dark wood fragment now, I can only give you some compensation, and it can be considered a connection," Mo Wuji said.
With his current strength, there was no need to hide such a thing.
The dark wood fragment was originally retrieved by Dai Nan Jian's brother, Dai Fang.
"Ah..." Dai Nan Jian exclaimed, and then quickly said, "It's the best possible outcome that the dark wood fragment ended up with Senior, but that has nothing to do with my brother and me. So this resource, I still can't..."
Mo Wuji smiled slightly. "Your cultivation is too low, and I feel that the Dark World doesn't have any good resources. You should still accept these resources. Perhaps it won't be long before some calamities occur in the universe. If your strength is low, you won't even have the ability to protect yourself."
"Thank you, Senior. Then Junior will shamelessly accept it." Dai Nan Jian put away the ring that Mo Wuji gave her, feeling fortunate that the dark wood fragment had fallen into Mo Wuji's hands.
Mo Wuji nodded. "I'm leaving. The Dark World is a bit strange, and it seems to have undergone some changes. Be careful. And the Ku family, I suggest you don't go for revenge until your strength is high enough. The Ku family is very extraordinary."
The Ku family had a Ku Xinren, and this guy was one of the Four Dao Lords. How could they be simple?
"Yes, Senior, Junior has one more thing to tell Senior. When my brother obtained the dark wood fragment, he also obtained a piece of Chaos Iron Matrix. The Ku family led the ambush against my brother, and that Iron Matrix must have been taken by the Ku family." Dai Nan Jian originally wanted to wait until she destroyed the Ku family and find the Iron Matrix to give to Mo Wuji. But Mo Wuji was leaving, and she might not be able to find Mo Wuji in the future, so she took the initiative to say it.
"Chaos Iron Matrix?" Mo Wuji repeated in surprise.
His Half-Moon Heavy Halberd had been shattered. Although he could repair the Half-Moon Heavy Halberd, Mo Wuji didn't plan to repair it.
The Half-Moon Heavy Halberd was refined using the Rootless Divine Iron, one of the five major acquired materials, plus Ping Shui. Not only could it be upgraded, but it could also suppress the opponent's divine mind.
This kind of magical treasure was definitely a first-class treasure in the God Realm. After the Half-Moon Heavy Halberd was shattered by the silver-clad man with a hammer, Mo Wuji knew that his Half-Moon Heavy Halberd was still lacking in dealing with the Saints.
Perhaps after countless years, the Half-Moon Heavy Halberd could be upgraded into a top-grade magical treasure. Could he wait until countless years later? The Extinction Calamity was approaching, and even before the calamity arrived, he would have to face the Saints.
Mo Wuji hadn't carefully examined the purple Dao Rune that he had received into the Mortal World, and he also had a premonition that the origin of that Dao Rune was probably very unusual. He even suspected that the Dao Rune was one of the nine Cosmic Dao Runes that the skeleton man in the Sword Prison had mentioned, but he hadn't seen the nine Cosmic Dao Runes, so he wasn't sure.
Once what he obtained was truly one of the nine Cosmic Dao Runes, then he was likely to encounter the Saints in advance.
Encountering the Saints in advance, a good attack magical treasure was too important to Mo Wuji, even half a life.
The Half-Moon Heavy Halberd refined from Rootless Divine Iron had been destroyed. If Mo Wuji wanted to find materials to refine the Half-Moon Heavy Halberd again, he had to find materials that were better than Rootless Divine Iron.
Rootless Divine Iron was one of the five major acquired materials. What was better than the five major acquired materials was only innate materials.
The Chaos Iron Matrix was a Chaos material, and its value was even better than innate materials. Now that Mo Wuji had obtained the news of the Chaos Iron Matrix, how could he miss it?
"This Chaos Iron Matrix is very important to me. Can you take me to the Ku family to take a look?" Mo Wuji said without hesitation.
"Yes." Dai Nan Jian immediately responded. She had originally intended to take Mo Wuji to see it when she mentioned the Rootless Divine Iron.
Mo Wuji sacrificed the Years Plate. "Get on, and then point the way."
After Dai Nan Jian stepped onto the Years Plate, Mo Wuji activated the Years Plate. Dai Nan Jian only pointed in one direction, and she felt that her divine mind could no longer peek at anything outside. It wasn't that Mo Wuji had arranged a magic array to shield the divine mind, but that the speed of the Years Plate was too fast, and her divine mind couldn't stay at all.
"Senior, Junior has one more thing to ask Senior," Dai Nan Jian said respectfully, withdrawing her divine mind.
Mo Wuji laughed. "My name is Mo Wuji. Call me by my name or call me Senior Brother in the future. I'm younger than you. Feel free to ask any questions you have."
Dai Nan Jian had long sensed that Mo Wuji was not very old. Now that she heard Mo Wuji's words, she immediately said, "Yes, Senior Brother Mo. Before I was nailed here, my strength was in the mid-stage God King realm. Because Senior arranged a top-grade spiritual gathering array, and there were many top-grade divine spiritual veins around, plus a wisp of Primal Hongmeng Aura and clear dark rules, my cultivation not only didn't decrease after I recovered, but it also increased, from God King to the initial stage of God Fusion. What Junior is puzzled about is, why didn't Junior experience the God Fusion Thunder Tribulation?"
