Chapter 750: Uniting The Green Ancient Mystery Dimension
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the center square, ancient martial art practitioners were dumbfounded as they stared at the people kneeling on the ground. The scene was rather grand. A large number of people were now kneeling down, and they were people who had a high status in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. They were all members of the Purple Qi Pavilion and the Five Beasts Sect, the two highest-ranked sects in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Even a normal disciple from one of those sects had a higher status than an elder from a small sect.
For most ancient martial art practitioners in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, such people were not to be provoked. But right now, the ancient martial art practitioners were kneeling down like wheat blown by the wind. In an instant, a large number of them had knelt down.
Even the members of the Purple Qi Pavilion had not expected that the Five Beasts Sect would follow them in kneeling before Mo Wen.
He Xiangyu was the first to kneel, followed by all the other ancient martial art practitioners of the Five Beasts Sect, including Bu Zhangkun.
“Why are you kneeling? Are you begging me to let your Five Beasts Sect go?” Mo Wen looked indifferently at He Xiangyu, but inside he felt surprised. He Xiangyu had actually led the crowd to kneel before him. With He Xiangyu’s identity and status, he should not be so cowardly. Him kneeling was the same as the entire Five Beasts Sect having knelt to Mo Wen.
“The Five Beasts Sect is willing to follow the Purple Qi Pavilion and pledge our allegiance to you. We are yours only to command and your lead is ours to follow. Please let the Five Beasts Sect live.” He Xiangyu was down on one knee with his head lowered. In an instant, he seemed to have aged a few decades. When the Purple Qi Pavilion recognized Mo Wen as their master, knelt before the crowd and pledge their allegiance to him, He Xiangyu knew that the Five Beasts Sect had reached a key moment in its history. Their very existence was at stake.
For hundreds of years, the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension had had constant minor conflicts. Ever since after the Luofeng Sect, there had never been a faction that could unite the entire Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Even the Purple Qi Pavilion had not been able to do so. Now that Mo Wen controlled the Purple Qi Pavilion, everything was different.
With Mo Wen’s ability, leading the Purple Qi Pavilion to unite the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension was not a difficult task at all. He had the ability and the Purple Qi Pavilion had the heritage and prestige. More frighteningly, even Lord Patriarch Tan stood at Mo Wen’s side.
Even if Mo Wen did nothing to the Five Beasts Sect today, in the future, he would certainly completely annex the Five Beasts Sect to expand the Purple Qi Pavilion. After experiencing so many sect battles, He Xiangyu could see it very clearly. He could already see that the Five Beasts Sect had reached the end of the line.
Their only way out was to follow the Purple Qi Pavilion and completely submit to Mo Wen. This was the only way that they could preserve the heritage and the entirety of the Five Beasts Sect.
“Let the Five Beasts Sect live? It seems that you had no intention of letting the Intentionless Sect live earlier,” Mo Wen said coldly.
“All that was done to the Intentionless Sect was down to me. The Five Beasts Sect’s ancient martial art practitioners merely followed my commands. Please let them live. I am willing to die as an apology.” He Xiangyu took a deep breath. At this moment, he knew that he had no other choice. If he wanted to preserve the Five Beasts Sect, he had to give Mo Wen a satisfactory explanation. He had to pay the price in blood. If his death could be exchanged for the survival of the Five Beasts Sect, he was willing to do it. He was a member of the Five Beasts Sect, and his roots lay with the Sect.
He Xiangyu furiously sent a palm strike towards his forehead. If it hit his head, his head would certainly explode like a watermelon.
This move of He Xiangyu caused quite a few people to be shocked and, at the same time, caused another indescribable feeling to emerge. The Five Beasts Sect was glorious prior to this. In one day, it had actually been forced to this point that the sect grand elder needed to make amends in such a manner.
Tan Qiyue softly sighed. It wasn’t that he didn’t want to save them. He was sentimental towards the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension’s ancient martial art practitioner sects. However, he could not save them. He understood Mo Wen more than many other people did. Long before this, he had already met Mo Wen. Back then, Mo Wen was just an Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioner. Tan Qiyue knew better than anyone how frightening this youth was.
If he offended Mo Wen because of today’s incident, then in the future, he would certainly bring disaster to all the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension’s ancient martial art practitioner sects. Even he could not keep Mo Wen here.
He would rather give up the Cries of Hades Bell, the Dark Soul Pearl and the high likelihood of a chance to become immortal than dare to completely break ties with Mo Wen. Tan Qiyue could not afford to lose. If he did, the price would be too great.
At this moment, the Five Beasts Sect was truly not important at all.
“You really do want to die happy. However, it won’t be that easy.”
A chill wind swept past. He Xiangyu’s movements were frozen in mid-air. Half his body, as well as the hand he had raised, was completely frozen in a layer of ice crystals. He was unable to move at all.
He Xiangyu’s figure trembled. His lips kept squirming. After a while, he said, “I am willing to die any way you want me to. Please, spare the Five Beasts Sect.”
He thought that Mo Wen wanted him to die painfully. It was likely that the youth was planning to torture him and make his life a living hell.
“Spare the Five Beasts Sect? And let them live so they can deal with me in the future?” Mo Wen asked.
“With your ability, would you still fear the retaliation of the Five Beasts Sect? Also, since the Five Beasts Sect has pledged allegiance to you, they will not harbor any disloyalty or even have the opportunity to be disloyal.” He Xiangyu laughed bitterly. If Mo Wen accepted the Five Beasts Sect’s allegiance, he would certainly disband the Five Beasts Sect first. The existence of the Five Beasts Sect was the problem, not the question of them retaliating or being disloyal.
“A dead person has no value at all. A living one may still have their uses. Now, I ask you: do you want to live or die?” Mo Wen said plainly.
“Do I want to live or die?” He Xiangyu mumbled in a low voice. He suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Mo Wen intently. His lips squirmed for a while before he said, “I want to live!”
“Since you want to live, then I will give you a chance to redeem yourself. You will manage the Five Beasts Sect, which will be renamed the Five Beast Pavilion. In the future, all of the sect matters and scheduling will be managed by you. If there are any errors, you will die,” Mo Wen said plainly.
“Understood! Thank you, master, for sparing my life,” He Xiangyu said emotionally. He had not expected that Mo Wen would let him live and instead give him such authority. Mo Wen had even renamed the Five Beasts Sect as the Five Beast Pavilion, showing he had no intention of dividing the Five Beasts Sect up.
“You should know my intention. Whether or not your life can be preserved, lies not with me, but with you.”
“I understand.” He Xiangyu nodded his head. He knew Mo Wen’s intentions. Mo Wen hoped to use him to control the entire Five Beasts Sect. After all, the Five Beasts Sect was a large sect. Although their heritage was not as deep as the Purple Qi Pavilion, over two hundred years, they had developed rapidly. It involved too many things. If a person who was not familiar with the Five Beasts Sect wanted to manage such a large sect well in a short amount of time, it would not be an easy task. Problems would surely arise.
With his identity and status in the Five Beasts Sect, it was far easier for He Xiangyu to manage the Five Beast Pavilion well than Mo Wen, and he could guarantee that internally there would be no issues.
Right now, even He Xiangyu admired Mo Wen’s boldness. Ordinary people would certainly not dare to give him all the authority over the Five Beasts Sect or spare the Five Beasts Sect from being divided up, but Mo Wen had. It was clear that Mo Wen was not at all afraid of the Five Beasts Sect retaliating or rebelling.
“I have no use for these Five Beast Hoops. Consider them the Five Beasts Pavilion’s treasures in the future.” Mo Wen waved his hand and five bronze beast hoops flew out. They were the Five Beast Hoops. He no longer had much use for them. He might as well leave them with the Five Beast Pavilion, bolstering the Five Beast Pavilion’s ability.
“Thank you, master, for gifting us this treasure.” He Xiangyu’s eyes were full of joy. He had not expected that the Five Beast Hoops would be returned to the Five Beasts Sect. No, they were no longer the Five Beasts Sect, but the Five Beast Pavilion.
Yin Banshuang knelt in the square. Even in her dreams, she had never imagined that when she met Mo Wen again, there would be such a scene. Their identities instantly went through a world-altering change. Also, Mo Wen once again redefined her understanding of monstrous power.
Looking at the tall silhouette, Yin Banshuang’s heart was extremely complicated. Who would have thought that a person that you had considered a friend would, not long after, be able to determine whether you lived or died with a single word and that you had to follow his every command.
“The Green Ancient Mystery Dimension is most likely going to change. After six hundred years, it truly is a cycle. Maybe a united Green Ancient Mystery Dimension will be even more powerful,” Tan Qiyue said softly.
Everyone now realized that, after six hundred years, the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension would finally be united again.
“Master, what about our Purple Qi Pavilion?” Grandmother Hui Ling asked after hesitating for a bit. She had not expected that the Five Beasts Sect would decide to pledge allegiance to Mo Wen. Originally, Mo Wen had been recognized by the sacred gourd as its master and was thus the true master of the Purple Qi Pavilion. But right now, the Five Beast Pavilion had popped up. What was going to happen?
“Your Purple Qi Pavilion will still be called the Purple Qi Pavilion. The matters in the pavilion will be handled by you. I will spare you, but you must show me your value,” Mo Wen said.
“Thank you, master, for sparing my life,” Grandmother Hui Ling said with her head lowered.
On this day, the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension went through a change that turned it upside down. The Intentionless Sect that had faced eradication escaped from danger and was renamed the Intentionless Pavilion.
On this day, a monstrous youth gave the command, and the Purple Qi Pavilion and Five Beasts Sect, as well as the large sects, sent out all their ancient martial art practitioners and completely destroyed the Medical Sect and the Weapon Forging Sect. Two sects at the pinnacle of the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension were history in a few days.
After that, the youth called Mo Wen created a sect called the Ming Palace.
On the day the Ming Palace appeared, the previous Purple Qi Pavilion, Five Beasts Sect, and Intentionless Sect declared that they had joined the Ming Palace, becoming the Ming Palace’s Three Main Pavilions: the Purple Qi Pavilion, the Five Beast Pavilion, and the Intentionless Pavilion.
The next day, the Ming Palace began recruiting. Then, a miraculous scene occurred.
One by one, all the factions in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension came to seek asylum. Within a day, the sect leaders of more than a hundred sects gathered in the Intentionless Sect, all of them requesting to join the Ming Palace. After a few days, there were no other factions in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension. Everything had happened naturally and effortlessly. Once again, the united front from six hundred years ago appeared.
On the top of the Intentionless Mountain stood an elder and a youth.
“Elder Tan, is this true?”
On the mountain peak, Mo Wen stood with his hands behind his back. The mountain winds howled, blowing his robes. It was as though he was an immortal that had descended into the realm of mortals, gone with the wind.
