Chapter 588: Coffin

In the great hall, many ancient martial art practitioners came with goals in mind, especially the huge factions.
Mo Wen was very curious. So many ancient martial art practitioner had come over despite the grave dangers. They had certainly not come over simply for spiritual stones and immortal cultivator resources.
“You may not know, but in the past Luofeng Sect unified the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. During its peak era, Luofeng Sect was comparable to the major factions in the Floating Mystery Dimension and other big Inner worlds. At that time, Luofeng Sect sect leader was a Martial Arts Grandmaster. He was only half a step away from becoming immortal. He had two famous treasures with him, rendering him undefeatable in the ancient martial arts world.”
Chen Wuhui’s eyes sparkled with light as he spoke about the Luofeng Sect sect leader. Six hundred years ago, Intentionless Sect had yet to exist and the Ming Cult was still around. Even though during that time Luofeng Sect paled into insignificance when compared to the Ming Cult, it was still a top faction among the Inner worlds.
“The ultimate goal of all the sects is to acquire the two ultimate treasures of the Luofeng Sect sect leader. One of them is called the Dark Soul Pearl. It’s a strange item in the immortal cultivation world. It is said that the Dark Soul Pearl increases the probability of ancient martial art practitioners becoming immortal. If the Luofeng Sect sect leader hadn’t died in battle, the probability of him becoming immortal was at least 80%.”
“The other ultimate treasure is a legendary profound level weapon called the Cries of Hades Bell. It has terrifying power. Only three profound level weapons are recorded in the history of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. However, the Cries of Hades Bell is the only profound level weapon verified to have existed. It is no doubt the number one spiritual treasure in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension.”
Chen Wuhui sighed. If it was not for these few unprecedented, rare treasures, so many ancient martial art practitioners wouldn’t have been attracted to risk their lives coming here. Along their journey, so many powerful ancient martial art practitioners had died. Even Intentionless Sect had lost an elder.
Even after making it to this palace hall, the chances of them acquiring those two ultimate treasures were slim. When compared to major factions like the Five Beasts Sect and the Purple Qi Pavilion, the other sects lacked advantages.
Mo Wen nodded as he listened to Chen Wuhui’s explanation. His facial expression was calm, but a glint of light flashed in his eyes.
Dark Soul Pearl. Such an item had actually appeared in an ancient martial art practitioner sect. Perhaps ancient martial art practitioners like Chen Wuhui didn’t understand what the Dark Soul Pearl was – they only knew that it could increase the chances of ancient martial art practitioners becoming immortal – but it was impossible for Mo Wen to not know what it was.
The origin of the Dark Soul Pearl was related to the underworld immortal cultivators. The underworld immortal cultivators were further divided into the ghost cultivators and the corpse cultivators.
There was also a Golden Elixir realm among the immortal cultivators. However, unlike the Golden Elixir realm of ancient martial art practitioners, where the ancient martial art practitioners agglomerated their Inner Qi core, the immortal cultivators at this realm agglomerated their spiritual power core.
In other words, the golden elixir refined by the immortal cultivators was the real golden elixir.
The golden elixir agglomerated by the underworld immortal cultivator was different from that by normal immortal cultivators. With the Power of Hades, the underworld immortal cultivator agglomerated the dark spiritual core.
The Dark Soul Pearl was related to the dark spiritual core. It was a special item formed when a ghost immortal cultivator combined all the Power of Hades with their own dark spirit before they died.
If the ancient martial art practitioners acquired the Dark Soul Pearl, it was indeed possible for them to become immortal. However…
Mo Wen smiled bitterly, casting his gaze on the passageway at the end of the palace hall. Nobody knew where it led to. A strange light flickered in his eyes. Becoming immortal with the help of the Dark Soul Pearl, could it be that…?
“Mo Wen, if you can acquire one of the two treasures, you will surely be able to fight against any later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. You will even be superior to them.” Seeing that Mo Wen’s eyes were flickering, Chen Wuhui thought he was interested in the treasures. It was reasonable. Who would not be interested in those two treasures? Even an immortal cultivator would be interested in them, let alone an ancient martial art practitioner. It was said that the immortal cultivators were the reason why Luofeng Sect, despite being so strong, had fallen so fast.
Chen Wuhui had concluded that the chances of him acquiring the two treasures were not high. However, Mo Wen was different. With the strength that he had demonstrated before this, and a bit of luck, Mo Wen had a good chance of getting one of the two treasures.
“I will not waste my time here with all of you. Since the two treasures are not in this palace, then surely they are to be found in more hidden places. All of the Five Beasts Sect ancient martial art practitioners and our alliance, follow me.” Bu Zhangkun took a glance at his longtime opponents; he was not interested in wasting time here. He straight away strode towards the passageway at the end of the palace hall. Now, everyone knew that the actual treasures of the Luofeng Sect were most likely located behind the passageway.
“Humph. Everyone from the Medical Sect, follow me.” Jiang Pingzhou coldly snorted. Then, with a wave of his sleeves, he rushed after Bu Zhangkun to enter the passageway. Before this, he was merely using the opportunity to find fault with Mo Wen. Naturally, he would not miss out on the two real treasures for the sake of some spiritual stones.
The Weapon Forging Sect sect leader, Jiang Jingtao and the Changming Sect sect leader, Xu Feiran exchanged a glance. Then, one by one they went into the passageway. The Weapon Forging Sect and the Changming Sect had been allies all along. Naturally, they would work hand in hand now.
On the other hand, the people from Purple Qi Pavilion didn’t rush into the passageway. Pavilion Leader Ye Rong walked towards Mo Wen gracefully, saying with a smile, “You are called Mo Wen, right? Thank you for saving the Purple Qi Pavilion elders and disciples. These are the spiritual stones which Tiantian has promised you. It is also a token of appreciation from our Purple Qi Pavilion.”
Pavilion Leader Ye Rong received a cloth bag from an elder near her, then she passed it to Mo Wen.
Mo Wen did not act overly politely. He took the cloth bag and had a glance inside the bag. There were exactly two hundred spiritual stones in the bag, not more, not less. Even though Mo Wen had taken away all the spiritual stones from the palace hall, who would not want more spiritual stones?
There was nothing like Mo Wen’s storage ring among the ancient martial art practitioners present, so the spiritual stones were carried around in cloth bags. One could only carry a limited amount of spiritual stones. Judging from the fact that the Purple Qi Pavilion could give him two hundred spiritual stones within such short notice, it could be seen that the Purple Qi Pavilion had made sufficient preparation for this trip. The number of spiritual stones carried by those Purple Qi Pavilion disciples was most likely not few.
In order for the ancient martial art practitioners to use immortal cultivator items, they needed to activate the power of the spiritual stones. For ancient martial art practitioners in the Inner worlds, as long as they had immortal cultivator treasures with them, they would surely be equipped with spiritual stones as well.
“Is little friend Mo Wen willing to travel with us?” Pavilion Leader Ye Rong asked.
“I will pass. I already have my companion.” Mo Wen shook his head with a smile.
Pavilion Leader Ye Rong glanced at Mo Wen, slightly surprised. Based on her thinking, since this youth had offended the Medical Sect and the Weapon Forging Sect one after another, by right he would not reject it when Purple Qi Pavilion held out an olive branch. To her surprise, this youth had rejected her so crisply.
Wu Feng, who was following beside Pavilion Leader Ye Rong, gave Mo Wen a strange glance. This youth was ungrateful. For Purple Qi Pavilion to be willing to travel with him, it meant that Purple Qi Pavilion was interested in forming an alliance with him, at least temporarily. With the prestige of Purple Qi Pavilion, Mo Wen could save himself from a lot of trouble. At the very least, the Weapon Forging Sect and the Medical Sect would not dare to find fault with him without thinking twice.
To his surprise, Mo Wen had actually rejected the offer. He was rather too arrogant.
“Since you say so, I will not disturb you.” Pavilion Leader Ye Rong smiled. She didn’t feel embarrassed or unsatisfied because Mo Wen rejected her. She turned around and led the Purple Qi Pavilion team into the passageway.
“You should have cooperated with Purple Qi Pavilion.” Chen Wuhui stared quizzically at Mo Wen. If Mo Wen and the Purple Qi Pavilion traveled together, he would surely reap many benefits. At least he wouldn’t have to face so many opponents at the same time.
Now, it meant that after this, during the fight for the treasures, Mo Wen would be alone. Intentionless Sect could not help him much at all.
“You might not understand sects like Five Beasts Sect and Purple Qi Pavilion. For these two sects to remain the eminent authorities in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension for so many years, they have many hidden strengths. Neither Pavilion Leader Ye Rong or Bu Zhangkun are the strongest in their sects. I suspect that there is most likely more than one later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner from their sects who are here.” A glint of worry flashed past Chen Wuhui’s eyes. Their current situation was not good.
“I, alone, am sufficient.” Staring at the passageway at the end of the palace hall, Mo Wen simply said this one line. Then, without saying another word, Mo Wen dashed into the passageway.
Staring at Mo Wen’s silhouette, a feeling welled up in Chen Wuhui’s heart. This youth was most likely even more complicated than he imagined. He was not like a youth. By rights, a youth would not have such demeanor. Instead, Mo Wen felt like an unparalleled strong practitioner who was knowledgeable and well versed in strategies.
“Zikuang, you stay back here. Try to carry as many treasures from the palace hall as possible. Even if we do not get the ultimate treasures, we can’t go back empty-handed from this trip.”
Chen Wuhui glanced at Chen Zikuang, ordering him to stay in the hall. Then, Chen Wuhui walked towards the deep passageway alone.
In reality, many ancient martial art practitioners had stayed back in the hall. The majority of them didn’t go into the passageway. It was because they knew that with their ability, even if there was any ultimate treasure in it, they would not have a chance to acquire it. They might even throw their lives away.
Even though the items in this palace hall were not the most precious treasures of Luofeng Sect, they were still considered an enormous fortune for some sects. Therefore, many ancient martial art practitioners had stayed back and used all their might to export the resources in the hall.
Chen Zikuang stared at the passageway and was eager to try it out. However, in the end, he sighed. He knew very well that he was not at all qualified to participate in the fight which would be happening inside.
The passageway was deep and the light was dim. The group traveled for a long time before they could finally see a glint of light in front of them. As they moved forward, the light became bigger. A quaint palace hall appeared before their eyes. Compared to the palace hall outside, this palace hall was bigger, with an inexplicable grandeur.
Mo Wen walked out of the passageway. He wasn’t shocked by the grand palace hall before him. It was because he had seen the palace halls of the Devil’s Heart and the Inferno Star Lord before. Compared to those two gigantic palace halls, this hall could only be referred to as child’s play.
However, it was the first time that many ancient martial art practitioners had encountered such a palace hall. All of them wore shocked expressions.
It was definitely not an easy task to build such a gigantic palace hall underground, especially not in an abyss. It would most likely be a difficult task even for Five Beasts Sect and Purple Qi Pavilion. The building was enough to demonstrate how prosperous the Luofeng Sect had been.
“That is…”
In the center of the hall was a wine colored coffin. There were eight thousand-feet-tall stone pillars around the coffin. Its manner was imposing. It attracted everyone’s attention in an instant.
