Mo Wen was a little shocked. The old woman called Zhang Feng could hand over 30,000 points. That was more than the number of points he had. These criminals were not ordinarily “wealthy,” so they had probably not been collected by one person. The old woman was probably supported and backed by a powerful faction. Otherwise, she would not be able to use 30,000 points as a wager.
“That lad is very popular. That’s true. Given his abilities, I would like to go against him as well.”
Lord Merciless laughed coldly. He had fought with Mo Wen and knew how capable he was. Even though the young man had shocked him, Mo Wen’s capabilities were no match for the older third ream martial arts grandmasters in the Red Stone Forest. He would most likely lose in the challenge ring, and there was even a risk of him being killed.
Once the challenge started, both the criminal and the competitor could not admit defeat for five minutes. If they could not make it past five minutes, there was a real risk that they would die in the ring. The criminals were not nice people. They would not hesitate if there was a chance that they could kill their opponents.
“If you had not made trouble for me, would I have killed your beloved pet? It was all cause and effect,” Mo Wen said lightly, treating Zhang Feng’s hateful gaze with indifference.
“Since you killed my beloved pet, I will kill you. This is also cause and effect! Die.”
The old woman named Zhang Feng harrumphed coldly. She took a step forward and managed to travel several hundred meters. A terrifying aura was released from her, and it enveloped the entire challenge ring. Her ability to bring a suppressive aura in the area was much higher than Lord Merciless. Her cultivation levels were also higher than those of Sword Addict White Dust.
Mo Wen smiled and his figure flickered. He turned into several figures. One could not tell which figure was real and which wasn’t.
Humph!
The old woman, Zhang Feng, harrumphed again. This sort of tactic to confuse others would not trick her. She shimmered and turned into dozens of figures, each heading towards one of Mo Wen’s figures. They were too fast, causing the figures to layer against each other. It was a dazzling sight. However, no matter how many shadows there were, there was only one body that was real.
The old woman focused on one figure and hit it decisively. A terrifying force erupted like a volcano and a terrifying pressure developed immediately.
The figures around her were all destroyed after being hit by the pressure. However, the figure she thought was Mo Wen’s real body was also destroyed. It dissipated like smoke being blown away by the wind.
“Oh no!”
The old woman was shocked, and she immediately realized that something was wrong. Indeed, a gentle breeze fluttered past her. Even though it was not strong, it caused her entire body to tighten up. Victory could be decided in just an instant when experts cross paths. There was no place for any mistakes at all.
She expended all the power there was in her body. The enormous wave of inner Qi formed a protective Qi layer that protected her entire body. At the same time, she pushed out with her palms and attempted to block the threat behind her.
However, she missed. There was nothing behind her at all. The space was completely empty.
Mo Wen stood 50 meters away, his hands behind his back. He looked at the old woman, Zhang Feng, with a vague smile.
“You...”
Zhang Feng immediately understood that she had been tricked by Mo Wen. She was a powerhouse in the third Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm, but she had been tricked by a boy. She felt embarrassed and angry. They were on the challenge ring and many people were watching the fight between them. Mo Wen had the opportunity to attack her earlier but he had not. If that was not him looking down on her, what was?
“You’re seeking death.”
Zhang Feng exploded with a most terrifying power in her anger and embarrassment. She immediately disappeared from where she had been standing. The next moment, a strong and wild wind swept through the entire challenge ring. The temperature fell quickly, and a cold aura that could affect one’s spirit was released.
“Merciless Hand.”
Below the square, some of the criminals who knew Zhang Feng narrowed their eyes. Their expressions turned grave. Zhang Feng cultivated in techniques that got rid of her emotions and desires. Her Merciless Hand was infamous in the Red Stone Forest. Of the warriors in the third Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm, Zhang Feng was considered to be rather famous.
Zhang Feng’s figure suddenly appeared in front of Mo Wen. Then, an extremely cold hand reached out.
“How interesting.”
Mo Wen laughed lightly. He radiated with blinding gold light. Then, his entire body turned into a Golden Body Luohan. His arm collided with Zhang Feng.
There was a brilliant gold light. Cold wind tore through the arena.
The two of them exchanged hundreds of blows in just a breath. Zhang Feng’s Merciless Hand was terrifying but Mo Wen’s Golden Body was also impenetrable. The two of them fought, neither gaining on the other.
“How did you become so powerful?” Zhang Feng looked at Mo Wen incredulously. Right now, Mo Wen was completely different from when she first met him. She realized that his cultivation levels had risen by a large amount. Disregarding anything else, his inner Qi had also become even more powerful. Furthermore, she felt that the Fire Attribute power that he welded was even more terrifying now.
“This is all thanks to you.” Mo Wen smiled meaningfully.
He had broken through to the ninth level of the Nine Yin Divine Technique. Not only had the quality of his inner Qi changed, but the quantity had also increased by a lot too. Furthermore, since water and fire repelled each other, after he reached the pinnacle of the Qi of Nine Yin, the corresponding Qi of Nine Yang also evolved in terms of quality. Of course, this evolution only happened to a certain degree. His Qi of Nine Yang had not changed directly unlike his Qi of Nine Yin.
However, overall, Mo Wen’s grasp of the Qi of Nine Yang was much stronger than when he was at the eighth level of the Nine Yang Divine Technique. Furthermore, it would be much easier for him should he wish to break through to the ninth level in the future.
“All thanks to me?” Zhang Feng was startled. What had Mo Wen becoming so powerful anything to do with her? She even suspected whether he had been hiding his true abilities and only showed them now.
“If you had not tried to kill me and forced me into the Cold Valley, I would not have had a miraculous encounter.” Mo Wen had no intention of hiding what happened in the Cold Valley. There was no need for him to.
“What? You entered the Cold Valley and managed to get out alive? How is that possible...” Zhang Feng’s expression was one of incredulity. How could anyone manage to enter the Cold Valley and leave it alive? Anyone who dared to enter the Cold Valley would be killed by the legendary devil locked up in there. There were not more than five people who could escape the old devil in the heart of the Red Stone.
And those people were locked up in an area by Huatian Palace because their cultivation levels were too high. They would never be able to come out from there. For example, the leader of the Rot Valley would never be able to leave the Rot Valley.
Otherwise, if they were able to leave the place where they were imprisoned, the competitors who entered the heart of the Red Stone would all be killed by them. They might not be powerhouses who have become immortals but they were at the level below that of becoming immortals.
Even the competitors who were ranked in the top ten would not be able to take three blows from these infinite powerhouses should they encounter them.
What Zhang Feng could not understand was how Mo Wen had managed to escape from the Cold Valley when he was not an infinite powerhouse. And he had even managed to have a miraculous encounter...
“How powerful.”
Beneath the square, Guo Mengqiao started to pay attention to challenge ring number 49. Mo Wen was a member of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall. As such, he would naturally pay more attention to him since they were from the same organization. However, what he did not expect was that Mo Wen would be so powerful.
As one of the more famous younger members of the Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall, he was not weak in terms of ability. Even though he was only in the Second Martial Arts Grandmaster realm, he could hold up against an ordinary Third Martial Arts Grandmaster realm warrior. However, Zhang Feng was a powerful existence even amongst those in the Third Martial Arts Grandmaster realm. He was no match for her. However, Mo Wen had managed to draw with her.
“He is a genius. The Martial Arts Grandmaster Palace Hall has managed to make yet another young powerhouse. He is only in his 20s. If he manages to successfully develop his talents, he might even be able to become someone like Madman Xiao and become an Infinite Powerhouse before he turns 50.
Infinite Powerhouses were the limits of mortals. They were extremely close to becoming immortals. Once they became immortals, or if they were to become Immortal Cultivators of the Primordial Soul Realm, they would change completely and would no longer be mortals.
“I do not believe that you could have become so powerful in such a few short days.”
Zhang Feng’s expression was dark. She would not cower at a time like this. Furthermore, there was nowhere for her to back away to. She would rather believe that Mo Wen had used a secret technique to increase his cultivation levels by large amounts that to believe that he was truly that powerful.
“Merciless Petrification.”
A ring of green light erupted from Zhang Feng. It rippled outwards like a wave and then gathered in her palms. It was an extremely terrifying corrosive power. If it were to even touch a diamond slightly, the diamond would corrode and turn into smoke.
It was an attribute power! This was the first time Zhang Feng had displayed her attribute power and it was a corrosive power.
A warrior who cultivated to a certain realm would have a grasp on some attribute powers due to the techniques they cultivated in. Generally speaking, the higher the level of their techniques, or the higher their level of cultivation, the higher the chances of them having some attribute powers. Mo Wen had managed to learn the attribute powers of Yin and Yang when he was in the Sea of Qi Realm. That was because he knew the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Divine Techniques.
To a warrior, attribute powers would increase their abilities to a great extent. However, they would not use it casually when unnecessary because it requires a large amount of inner Qi to use their attribute powers.
The terrifying corrosive power approached and space seemed to twist and evaporate. Even a First Martial Arts Grandmaster realm warrior would instantly turn into a puddle of blood should they come into contact with it.
The expressions of many of those watching the fight stiffened. Zhang Feng would not use that corrosive power so casually unless she had no other choice. The young man’s abilities were such that Zhang Feng had used her corrosive power so quickly.
“So the attribute power you cultivate in is corrosion.”
Mo Wen’s lips curled. There were many types of corrosive power. For example, the Rot Valley technique was also a corrosive power. However, Zhang Feng’s corrosive power was different from that of the Rot Valley’s.
Corrosive Power was a terrible sort of power. At least to mortal cultivators, this was a power they would find difficult to defend against. That was because corrosive powers could spread and be transmitted. It would meld into space and was difficult to defend against. One would fall prey to it if they were not careful.
There were some corrosive powers that not only corroded one’s body and inner Qi. It could also corrode one’s soul. It was terrifying.
Mo Wen, however, was not affected. Instead, he smiled. A ray of golden light shone from within him. The golden light was like the sun and it lit up the entire Death Fighting Square. Not even the barrier of the challenge ring could block it. An extremely powerful aura erupted from within him. It was dignified, majestic, destructive... At that moment, everyone could feel a destructive aura approaching them.
“A pure attack Fire Attribute rite of passage martial arts!” A person who had been standing at the corner of the square all this while, hidden in a dark corner silently, suddenly looked up violently. His gaze swept past several challenge rings and focused straight at challenge ring number 49.
