Chapter 509: Hunting Golden Elixir Realm Practitioners

Upon hearing this, Mo Wen nodded his head. Although his soul attack technique could affect intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners, the effects were not big. Before, when he had attacked Xu Zhong’s soul, it was somewhat taxing. If it was an intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner, it would most likely be even more difficult.

Also, with his current ability, to be able to send out a soul attack and harm an intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner was already considered very good. To attack two people at the same time was an impossible feat.

“Mo Wen, I have a favor to ask,” Chen Zikuang asked with a serious expression.

“Oh, what is it?” Mo Wen smiled. In reality, he did not need to ask to know what the matter was. However, in this setting, how could he not ask? Of course, he had to pretend not to know.

“I hope you can cooperate with the Intentionless Sect elders and head forth to kill the Sacred Flame Sect’s Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners.” Chen Zikuang laughed bitterly. With Mo Wen acting like this, he already realized that there would inevitably be a huge price to pay. Many times, Chen Zikuang had experienced firsthand this brat’s ability to take advantage of every opportunity to benefit himself. However, given the situation right now, he had to ask Mo Wen for help once again, although he really did not want to have dealings with this brat.

The pressure that the Intentionless Sect currently faced was not only the Sacred Flame Sect’s two intermediate stage Golden Elixir realm sect leaders but also their number of Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners which far outnumbered that of the Intentionless Sect. The Intentionless Sect was very much lacking in top tier battle power.

If Mo Wen could cooperate with the Intentionless Sect elders and kill more Sacred Flame Sect elders, then for the Intentionless Sect, it would a timely help. It could lessen the pressure of battle greatly.

“For every Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner you kill, you will receive a reward of ten spiritual stones.” Chen Zikuang had already prepared to break the bank. So, before Mo Wen opened his mouth, he first said this. If he let Mo Wen speak first, whether or not ten spiritual stones would even be enough would be a problem.

“I’m just contributing some muscle. The Intentionless Sect will be standing in my camp in the future. How can I accept such a reward in good conscience? However, since Deputy Sect Leader Chen is being so enthusiastic, it would not be nice for me to reject such an offer. It is difficult to refuse such kindness!” Mo Wen said, laughing.

He was very satisfied at the price of ten spiritual stones offered by Chen Zikuang. It was just killing a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. After all, he was not the one who would be putting his life on the line fighting to the death, so it was very cost-effective.

Chen Zikuang rolled his eyes. Cannot accept such a reward in good conscience! For Mo Wen to say this was practically like pigs flying.

Only a ghost would believe what Mo Wen said. Chen Zikuang had already experienced firsthand Mo Wen’s shamelessness, so he naturally would not take what Mo Wen said to heart.

After all, Chen Zikuang had thought it through. In the future, if Mo Wen re-established the Ming Cult, the Intentionless Sect would most likely end up in his hands. Right now, he would just take it as though he was providing some benefits to Mo Wen beforehand.

Following this, Chen Zikuang called an elder. This elder was dressed in grey and was clearly showing signs of age. This person was the Intentionless Sect’s sect great elder. Based on seniority, he was still above Chen Zikuang. He was a figure of Chen Wuhui’s generation. His cultivation was naturally placed first among the elders. He was one of the strongest battle powers of the Intentionless Sect.

Chen Zikuang hoped that Mo Wen would cooperate with the elder to head forth and kill the Sacred Flame Sect beginning stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners. With Mo Wen’s soul attack, as well as the sect great elder’s battle power, it should not be a difficult task.

“Elder Xia, this mission is top secret. Only the three of us know. Please act cautiously,” Chen Zikuang said with a serious expression.

They could not let the members of the Sacred Flame Sect know about Mo Wen’s ability, otherwise, his effectiveness would be decreased by half.

“Deputy Sect Leader, don’t worry. I understand. I will surely cooperate well with our little friend Mo Wen,” Xia Kunqian said as he nodded his head ceremoniously. He was clearly a person who did not smile a lot.

Mo Wen glanced curiously at the elder beside him, but he did not say anything. Since this old man was the Intentionless Sect’s sect great elder, then he should be much more powerful than that Mu Liao. With his cooperation, maybe the task would be much easier.

...

In the Intentionless Sect’s outer city, in a house under the cover of night, an elder wearing a fiery red robe and a black cape stood in a large hall. On each side of the hall stood more than ten men in red robes. Their chests were adorned with the sigil of the sun. There were all Sacred Flame Sect ancient martial art practitioners, and their ranks were not low.

“There is still no news from Elder Duan Mu and Elder Diao Peng?” The old man who was the leader had a sullen expression. He glanced at the man in black robes kneeling on one knee before him.

“Reporting to the sect leader, our spies have ventured within the Snow Storm Stratagem a total of four times to search. We have not found any signs of the two elders’ whereabouts,” the man in black said with a respectful look as he lowered his head slightly.

“We don’t even know if they are alive or dead. Could it be that these two fellows have actually fled?” Zhu Lanhuo’s eyes flashed with a cold look. Yesterday, he had sent the two elders to venture into the Snow Storm Stratagem to kill an Intentionless Sect Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. But he never imagined that not only would their scheme fail, but that both of the elders who went on the mission instead went missing. Even the whereabouts of the sect’s spiritual weapon that they had taken along with them was currently unknown.

The members of the Sacred Flame Sect searched for an entire day and night, and yet they did not manage to find the two of them.

Right now, there were only two scenarios. One was that they had already died, and their corpses had been destroyed by the members of the Intentionless Sect to eliminate the evidence. The other was that the two of them coveted the sect’s spiritual weapon, and had fled with it.

But no matter which one it was, for the Sacred Flame Sect, it was still a huge loss. Not to mention losing two Golden Elixir realm elders, the cult’s most treasured spiritual weapon had gone missing. This was too high a price to pay.

“Do you think that it is possible that both Elder Duan Mu and Elder Diao Peng have died at the hands of the members of the Intentionless Sect? If that is so, then we will most likely need to thoroughly consider this.”

In the hall, right now only one person dared to speak. This was the Sacred Flame Sect deputy sect leader Li Zhuoying. He had a position that was only second to one other within the Sacred Flame Sect. On the surface, Li Zhuoying looked to be in his fifties, but in reality, he was close to two hundred years old. Rumor had it that he had eaten a spiritual fruit with rare youth retaining effects. Hence, he could never look old.

“I also feel it’s strange. Both Duan Mu and Diao Peng had a spiritual weapon to defend themselves with. In the Intentionless Sect, aside from the half-dead Chen Wuhui, only Chen Zikuang has the ability to hold them back.”

“But yesterday, both you and I pinned Chen Zikuang tightly. It was impossible for him to have the chance to do so.” Zhu Lanhuo frowned. If the two Sacred Flame Sect elders had died, then this incident was somewhat bizarre. The people who had such ability in the Intentionless Sect were so few, and it was impossible for them to have shown up.

Could it be that there was a mysterious expert hiding in the Intentionless Sect?

The possibility of this was not high, otherwise, they would have appeared long ago. They had no need to stay concealed and hidden at all. With the Intentionless Sect’s current situation, they were almost pushed to the verge of despair.

“We need to keep an eye out for this matter. If the two elders are dead, then the sect’s spiritual weapon would most likely have ended up in the hands of the Intentionless Sect.” Li Zhuoying sighed. If the spiritual weapon had ended up in the hands of the Intentionless Sect, the difficulty of them eliminating the Intentionless Sect would undoubtedly become higher.

The Sacred Flame Sect had originally wanted to sabotage the Intentionless Sect. Who would have imagined that in the end, when trying to be clever, they would end up making such a blunder?

“Since it has come to this, we can only make plans as we go along. The Intentionless Sect is not expected to continue for much longer. That brat Yu Guang doesn’t have any other abilities, but he has quite a few devious methods. That old fellow Chen Wuhui will most likely be at his last breath.”

Zhu Lanhuo coldly laughed and said, “Originally I wanted to drag it out for a few more days. But now that this incident has occurred, we can only act immediately. We will try to take down the Intentionless Sect in five days, otherwise, changes may happen if we delay.”

...

Within the Snow Storm Stratagem, Mo Wen once again entered the snow covered world. Cold winds and snow came surging forth, bearing a chill that pierced the bones. If ordinary people appeared here, they would most probably instantly end up as ice sculptures.

“Elder Xia, the Snow Storm Stratagem covers such a large area. How do we find the Sacred Flame Sect Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners?” Mo Wen glanced at their surroundings. It was white everywhere. The space in the Snow Storm Stratagem was a bit strange, seemingly able to expand to a size greater than the original space. Also, the snowstorm affected sight. With his sight, the visibility was no more than a hundred meters.

The Intentionless Sect sect great elder’s surname was Xia. He was called Xia Kunqian.

“Little friend Mo Wen, don’t worry. The Snow Storm Stratagem is a stratagem that the Intentionless Sect has mastered. Maybe the members of the Sacred Flame Sect will have a hard time finding us, but it is not difficult for us to find the Sacred Flame Sect Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners.”

Elder Xia Kunqian took out an object that looked like a compass from his clothes. On the compass was an indentation, and in it, a spiritual stone was embedded.

For the Intentionless Sect to be able to hold off the Sacred Flame Sect for such a long time was naturally not without reason. In Intentionless City, the Intentionless Sect naturally held a strategic advantage. If it wasn’t for this, the Intentionless Sect would have been long since annihilated.

Mo Wen looked curiously at the compass. It was actually a simple magical instrument, possibly something they got from the Huatian Palace that could be used together with the Snow Storm Stratagem.

While he was looking at it, Xia Kunqian touched the compass. A white light shot out and a projection appeared on the ground. On it was many moving light spots. There were blue, red, black and gold light spots. On the projection, the gold light spots were the fewest. Altogether there were no more than twenty.

“The blue light spots represent Sea of Qi realm ancient martial art practitioners. The red light spots represent Qi Nucleation realm ancient martial art practitioners. The black light spots represent Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioners. As for the gold light spots, they represent Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners.”

Xia Kunqian allowed Mo Wen a glance, then once again touched the compass. In an instant, the lights began to change. The number of light spots decreased by half, becoming sparser. Also, these light spots did not remain at their original position, instead they were moving all around.

“I turned off all of the light spots representing the Intentionless Sect ancient martial art practitioners. What are left give us the position of the Sacred Flame Sect ancient martial art practitioners.”

Xia Kunqian stroked his white beard. His stern face finally revealed a slight smile as he said, “There is a Sacred Flame Sect Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner five hundred meters away in the southwest direction.”

“Interesting.” Mo Wen nodded his head. With this object, the Intentionless Sect indeed possessed a huge strategic advantage. No wonder that although the Sacred Flame Sect was so powerful, they had never managed to take down the Intentionless Sect.
