655 The Rule-Breaking Bottle Gourd

A terrifying pressure descended from the sky, as though there was a Taishan Mountain pressing down on Mo Wen. He couldn't even breathe properly.

A Cyan Light Eagle! It was a pinnacle of the seventh rank monstrous beast and a mutated monstrous beast with Inherent Skills. It was far stronger than the common pinnacle of seventh rank monstrous beasts.

This terrifying monstrous beast had just rescued the ape demon from the hands of Mo Wen.

Was it one of the Four Lords of the ancient city?

Mo Wen stared at the gigantic Cyan Light Eagle from afar. He knew that it was likely to be one of the Four Lords of the ancient city which had been mentioned in the mission briefing he had received earlier.

The Beast Kings had fallen into a deep slumber. Hence, the most powerful figures in the ancient city were the Four Lords.

He had not expected that among the Four Lords, there would actually an overlord of the sky, the Cyan Light Eagle. Bird type monstrous beasts were undoubtedly harder to deal with than many of the other creatures in this place.

Once the Cyan Light Eagle appeared, it flapped its wings furiously. Two cyan tornadoes suddenly shot up to the sky. Everywhere they passed by, things were cleanly swept away by them.

A cyan tornado furiously crashed into a house, instantly grounded it to dust.

Small amounts of debris filled the sky. A figure shrouded in blue light walked pathetically out of the cyan tornado. It stumbled as it walked, clearly having suffered a depressing loss.

"Huh? Gong Zhangyan!" The figure was none other than Gong Zhangyan!

His sudden appearance filled Mo Wen with surprise. He had not expected that Gong Zhangyan would be here. He must have been hiding in the house, though Mo Wen did not know why.

The other beam of cyan light swept towards a street. The street seemed to be empty. There was not a person in sight, but the cyan tornado still headed in that direction.

Strong winds swept past. Out of nowhere, a silhouette pathetically stumbled out. Mo Wen did not know what method the person had used to hide in the air. Even he had not noticed.

It was a woman. She was dressed in white and had a tall, slender and graceful figure. On her wrist, she wore a white pearl bracelet. Seven pearls kept emanating a gentle glow.

Pei Fengwu!

Mo Wen laughed bitterly. In the blink of an eye, he had actually encountered two familiar figures.

Why were they here? Could it be that they had triggered and accepted the hidden task as he had done?

There were four people in this hidden task. That meant that, as well as Mo Wen, Pei Fengwu, and Gong Zhangyan, there must be another person.

Mo Wen quickly looked towards the northwest direction of the ancient city. The battle over there was getting more and more intense. The fourth person must be there.

Mo Wen's gaze swept towards the altar in the center of the city. The white jade box quietly floated in the air, emanating a gentle glow.

They only needed to steal the white jade box to complete the task.

The white jade box was placed so obviously. On the surface, it did not seem to be a difficult task. After all, their task was to just steal the box, not to battle the monstrous beasts in the city to the death.

After Gong Zhangyan appeared, he looked ferociously at the Cyan Light Eagle in the sky. Then, with a flash of his silhouette, he suddenly dashed towards the altar in the center, aiming to steal the white jade box.

On the other side, Pei Fengwu's gaze was also fixed on the white jade box. With a step, she nimbly flew above the street. Her goal was also the altar in the center.

Rumble!

In the northwest corner, a golden light suddenly shot out of the night sky. Everywhere it passed was a massacre. The monstrous beasts that were in the path of the light were all turned to dust, becoming specks of starlight.

The golden silhouette had just appeared, when it also turned and dashed towards the center altar.

Mo Wen actually also recognized the golden silhouette. It was Hou Jingfeng who had nearly died at Mo Wen's hands earlier on.

Right now, Hou Jingfeng's aura was very powerful. Not only was it completely unsealed, but it also seemed to be even stronger.

Mo Wen also discovered that Pei Fengwu and Gong Zhangyan's cultivation had reached the later stage of the Golden Elixir realm.

The Game of Death had only been going on for half a day, and they had already made such huge progress. It made even Mo Wen somewhat astonished.

To obtain his current cultivation, he did not know how many monstrous beasts he had killed. He had done so incessantly. From the looks of it, the other ancient martial art practitioners were not far behind him.

The four of them had seen their cultivation suppressed to the same realm and had been made to climb their way back up. Mo Wen considered the possibility that their youth gave them an advantage over the other practitioners also in the game.

The youths who had come to the Fire Domain were all geniuses among geniuses. Those senior ancient martial art practitioners were very powerful, almost all stronger than the youths. But that power had been cultivated over their entire lifetime. It naturally couldn't be directly compared with that of the youths.

If they were of the same age, the senior ancient martial art practitioners would not necessarily be more powerful than these youths.

Now that everyone was at the same starting point, the talents of the youth were limitless. This instead made it easier for them to stand out.

Caw! The next moment, the Cyan Light Eagle screeched.

Roar! Roar! Roar! Roar! All the monstrous beasts in the entire ancient city were riled up. Large packs of monstrous beasts blocked the roads, preventing the human ancient martial art practitioners from approaching the altar in the center of the city.

Mo Wen narrowed his gaze. From the looks of it, he had to achieve victory amidst this chaos. He could not really expect much help from the other members of the alliance, aside from attracting the attention of some of the monstrous beasts.

Besides, Gong Zhangyan and Hou Jingfeng both harbored a deep hatred towards him. It would be impossible for them to cooperate with him.

Mo Wen could also tell that the white jade box contained a truly powerful treasure.

Under such circumstances, no one would let others snatch it away. Not only would they not cooperate, instead they would very likely hinder each other.

Mo Wen's silhouette pounced towards the blue light ape type monstrous beast on the ground. This monstrous beast was a rare gifted mutant variant. It had talents and abilities that only demons had. Killing such a monstrous beast would most likely result in good items dropping.

After carefully studying the place for half a day, Mo Wen now understood the rules of this space quite well.

There was a chance of item drops from killing beginning stage seventh rank monstrous beasts. Killing intermediate stage seventh rank monstrous beasts meant an item drop was very likely. Killing a later stage seventh rank monstrous beast would always result in an item drop. The item drops would not necessarily be very good, but they would certainly drop something.

As for pinnacle of the seventh rank monstrous beasts, Mo Wen had not killed one before, so he did not what would happen.

A gray light flashed. The Gray Mountain Peak shook slightly, once again emanating a faint gray glow. It swept towards the blue light ape demon.

Roar!

The ape demon was very intelligent. It knew that it was not a match for Mo Wen and so did not bother with him. With a nimble leap, it evaded the gray light and then tried to flee.

Mo Wen was slightly stunned. He had not expected that an illusionary beast would actually flee. The illusionary beasts that the Tower Spirit had created were too lifelike.

However, once Mo Wen had locked onto his prey, he had no intention of letting it go.

A gentle breeze swept past Mo Wen. The next moment, his silhouette disappeared from where he had been standing a moment before. When he appeared again, he was already in front of the escaping ape demon.

Mo Wen extended his hand forward to strike. A golden light flashed and a terrifying power swept out, causing the huge ape demon to stagger.

At the same time, the Gray Mountain Peak flew over. It suddenly grew larger. It came pressing down from above, putting a huge amount of pressure on the body of the ape demon.

Howl! The ape demon roared in anger. Its face was hideously contorted. It raised both its arms and lifted up the Gray Mountain Peak. Blood vessels could be seen protruding from the skin of the ape demon. They were like angry red dragons, the amazing power of the blood and Qi tumbling around in them.

On the ground, with the ape demon's legs as the center, cracks started spreading to the surroundings.

A look of astonishment flashed in Mo Wen's eyes. As expected, this ape demon was gifted. Its strength was actually enormously powerful. Even Mo Wen would kneel when crushed under the top grade spiritual weapon, the Gray Mountain Peak.

Mo Wen shook his head and pointed his finger. A black light flashed past and the flying dagger spiritual weapon became a dark mark. With a swoosh, it sliced at the head of the ape demon.

Normally, Mo Wen would not be able to use two spiritual weapons at the same time. But in this space, he could. It was because his Inner Qi could be used as spiritual power. He was equal to half an immortal cultivator.

Against the suppression of the Gray Mountain Peak, the ape demon could only barely resist. Right now, with the flying dagger spiritual weapon also slashing down, it could only watch helplessly.

Swoosh! The light of the dagger flashed and blood flew out from the ape demon's neck. The next moment, with a loud grunt, its huge head rolled onto the ground.

The ape demon became specks of starlight. All of them were absorbed into Mo Wen's body.

A mass of faint silver light floated in midair. As Mo Wen had expected, killing a later stage seventh rank monstrous beast had resulted in an item drop. This time, he had hit the jackpot. It had actually dropped a mass of medium-grade Unsealing Light. The Unsealing Light was the rarest drop. Even low-grade Unsealing Lights were rare drops, let alone medium-grade ones.

Mo Wen had not expected that he would obtain his second mass of medium-grade Unsealing Light so quickly. This meant that he could unseal another top grade spiritual weapon. It would greatly increase his abilities.

After giving it some thought, Mo Wen decided to unseal the Purple Bottle Gourd.

The Purple Bottle Gourd was the magical treasure in his possession that was second only to a profound level weapon. Among the top grade spiritual weapons he had, almost none could compare with the Purple Bottle Gourd. It was not farfetched to consider the Purple Bottle Gourd as a profound level weapon.

However, this Purple Bottle Gourd was very odd. Every time he used the Purple Bottle Gourd, Mo Wen would always feel an eerie feeling well up. He could not describe clearly as to why this was so, but most of the time, Mo Wen did not want to use the Purple Bottle Gourd.

Mo Wen took the Purple Bottle Gourd out from the medicine spiritual ring and prepared to use the Unsealing Light to unseal it.

Then, something unexpected occurred. Just as it came out of the medicine spiritual ring, the Purple Bottle Gourd released a purple light. Then, with a flash of light, it flew up into the air and kept hovering there.

It was like a little kid, bored to death in a little dark house, had finally found the opportunity to come out to play.

Only after flying in midair on its own for a while did the Purple Bottle Gourd appear on Mo Wen's shoulder with a flash of light. It kept hopping on his shoulder in a lively manner.

"How is this possible?" Mo Wen looked at the Purple Bottle Gourd in disbelief. He had discovered that this mysterious Bottle Gourd was actually not restricted by the rules of this space.

He tried to channel some power into the Purple Bottle Gourd.

As expected, the Purple Bottle Gourd shined brightly, emanating golden light that was noble and big. A mass of purple Qi coalesced at the bottle's opening. Then, it became a purple saber. With a flash of purple light, seven to eight monstrous beasts that were encircling Mo Wen were all killed at once.

"To not be restricted by the rules of the space, what's going on?"

Mo Wen was aghast. He had not used the Unsealing Light, and yet the Purple Bottle Gourd was not affected by this space at all.
