Everyone was stunned, so much so that they thought their eyes were deceiving them and were hallucinating.

Not only had that terrifying attack not killed him, it barely scratched him or even left a mark on his clothes. It was as if both the cultivators and Mo Wen had not existed in the same dimensional plane—absolutely nothing happened!

“I’m not dreaming, am I? That’s not possible. How can that be possible?”

“Did that blow really land on him? It didn’t miss, did it?”

“How could it have missed? Your brain might be missing, but there’s no way such an attack could miss,” someone retorted, irked, and unable to hold back. Mo Wen had been standing there, unmoving, so how could that attack have missed? If they could miss even under those circumstances, why would they be here attacking the city? They would long have been wiped out by the Yingyun City cultivators.

Huai Hongxiu was shocked, disbelief written all over her face. How could that be? He was completely unaffected?

“What happened there, older sister?” The Huai Clan second young mistress was stunned.

“He must have cultivated some special kind of remarkable power, and that’s why he’s not afraid of such an attack,” Huai Hongxiu could only come up with that explanation.

But, in her heart, she was relieved beyond measure. It turned out that this Mo Wen was no lunatic at all. He indeed had a plan, which was why he had not been afraid of going out. The thing was that his actions were simply unexpected and indeed unprecedented, and to add to that, the outcome that was even more shocking. It was unlikely that even a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator would dare do something like this.

In the distance, the Muhong City Mayor was troubled and frowned, but did not display any anxiety outwardly. He would not have acted as recklessly as this Tide Changing Realm cultivator. A cultivator at the Supreme Profundity Realm intermediary stage would have been able to deal with a blow like that. However, for a cultivator at the Supreme Profundity Realm preliminary stage, that was not possible, and he, for one, could not pull off something like this.

However, for cultivators at the Supreme Profundity Realm preliminary stage who had cultivated special secret techniques, this was undoubtedly possible. After all, there were all sorts of people in the world. And even among cultivators of an equal level, there was always another that was stronger. Any cultivators who possessed remarkable powers were unique in their own right.

One thing was sure—this young man would be a handful to deal with!

All of the Muhong City cultivators stared at the scene in trepidation. As it sunk in, they realized that the situation had changed and would not be as easy as they had initially thought.

Mo Wen advanced, a step at a time, and the aura that emanated from his body increased with every step. After a thousand steps, his aura peaked, and even a cultivator with a great attainment of the Tide Changing Realm could not compare.

A flashing sword appeared in his hand, giving off a brilliant light and manifesting as a fierce flame. That sword was sacred, exceptional in form, and imbued with unique powers. In the hand of its bearer, it presented a dignified and overwhelming presence…

The Sacred Flame Sword! This unique sword was a Hundred Spirit Sacred Treasure. Although the seal on it had not yet been completely undone and it was still just a heaven spiritual treasure, the sword already possessed a special aura unique to sacred treasures since there was only one seal left on it.

The Sacred Flame Sword flashed fiercely, then a bolt of deadly Sword Qi shot up in the sky. The Sword Qi, a thousand feet long, swept out majestically, and hundreds of Muhong City cultivators fell instantly.

How could the average cultivator withstand the power of Mo Wen’s sword? How could they withstand even a blow from a heaven spiritual treasure?

Mo Wen killed a hundred people in a single step. After three or four more steps, hundreds more died at his hands. Among the cultivators who had died, some were at the Primordial Soul Realm, and others at the Tide Changing Realm. The casualties piled up fast, as he continued his advance, he looked in every way like a God of War.

“A heaven spiritual treasure!”

The Muhong City Mayor was awestruck. He looked in disbelief, eyeing the long fiery sword in Mo Wen’s hands—a heaven spiritual treasure in the young man’s hands!

It was not just the Muhong City Mayor who was shocked. All of the higher-level adepts in Yingyun City and Muhong City were shocked as well. They could obviously detect the aura coming off of the heaven spiritual treasure, it was just that none of them had expected that such a heaven spiritual treasure would appear on this battlefield.

How could this be? Heaven spiritual treasures had not been seen in the Ruyun Territorial Waters, and the best treasure known to exist here was a treasure at the rank of spiritual treasures in Yunhong City. Heaven spiritual treasures have been known to exist in other territorial waters, but they had never appeared in a place as small as the Ruyun Territorial Waters.

In most Immortal Cultivation Worlds, hardly one in 100 Supreme Profundity Realm cultivators would have seen one. It was different from the Peng Lai Immortal Realm, an ancient land that had existed since before time. Besides, it had a unique geographical location. Old Man Xuan You from the Sword Valley, from example, owned a heaven spiritual treasure himself. Similarly, so did the other sects in the Sword Valley, where almost all of them had their own heaven spiritual treasures.

But the Sorcerer Domain in the Ancestral Sorcerer Battlefield was different. The Sorcerer Domain was simply too vast, and there were too many immortal cultivators there. The more immortal cultivators there were, meant that competition was fiercer, and resources were more scarce. Even cultivators at the Supreme Profundity Realm later stage would find it challenging to obtain a heaven spiritual treasure, let alone those at the Supreme Profundity Realm preliminary stage.

After shaking off the initial shock of seeing Mo Wen’s abilities, the multitude of cultivators suddenly realized the significance of what he held in his hand. Their desire for such a coveted treasure had quickly overcome their fear of its power, and their countenance now changed. They looked grim and fell, possessed with a fierce determination to relieve the bearer of his treasure… it had often been said that the more difficult the competition, the more attractive the treasures. If they could obtain a heaven spiritual treasure, it meant that their powers would rise significantly and that the resources they would stand to gain in the future would also increase by leaps and bounds. This would mean that they could walk the Path of Immortal Cultivation for a much longer time.

The Muhong City Mayor felt his heart beating quickly and was overcome with the desire to possess the spiritual treasure. He was stricken with this madness and charged towards Mo Wen like a tiger after its prey.

Mo Wen stepped forward, one step after the other, corpses piled up wherever he went. Hordes of Muhong City cultivators were being slaughtered at will. Suddenly those who faced him were struck by fear, and they scattered before his advance. The space in a hundred-mile radius was instantly vacated.

Mo Wen gripped the Sacred Fire Sword, steady as he looked towards the Muhong City Mayor, who was dashing toward him. He had never faced off against a Supreme Profundity Realm cultivator before.

“Leave that blade, and I’ll let you go alive. I might even call off the invasion of Yingyun City.”

The Muhong City Mayor’s rage-filled voice called out from a distance. It was evident how desperately he coveted the sword.

In Yingyun City, everyone’s expressions changed. No one had expected that the young cultivator would actually have a treasure as unique as the heaven spiritual treasure in his hands. A heaven spiritual treasure was far more valuable than the entire Yingyun City. So highly regarded that, if news of this broke out, the strongest of the Ruyun Territorial Waters, Venerable Master Hui Hong, would probably come just to snatch it.

“Come and get it if you can. I’m only worried you’re not qualified to,” Mo Wen retorted calmly.

“Hmm, you’re really looking to die.” The Muhong City Mayor chuckled coldly. He was, after all, a cultivator at the Supreme Profundity Realm. Did Mo Wen really think the mayor could not defeat him?

“Guiluo Mystic Yin Body.”

A dark light filled the Muhong City Mayor’s eyes, determined to unleash his full fury for the first time since he had last dealt with Mo Wen. Their match earlier had been but a casual exchange of blows to test the waters. After all, a Tide Changing Realm cultivator was still not someone he should be worried about.

But now, he wished to kill this young man. That heaven spiritual treasure was going to be his.

The Guiluo Mystic Yin Body was one of the great magical power that the Muhong City Mayor had cultivated. It was a small-path fourth rank remarkable power, and he had long cultivated it. If not for the fact that he had met an opponent who was equal to his realm, he would never have triggered it.

The moment the Guiluo Mystic Yin Body was invoked, squalls of dark, sinister winds suddenly raged the entire Heaven and Earth. The Muhong City Mayor transformed into a savage beast 20 meters tall. His whole body covered in hideous bluish-black scales, and his disheveled hair cascading down to his knees. A dark ghostly fire burned engulfed him.

“Be careful, Brother Mo Wen, the Guiluo Mystic Yin Body, is a small-path fourth rank remarkable power, and it allows the Muhong City Mayor’s power to increase twofold. On top of that, the remarkable power is cultivated by collecting dark spirits, and it’s extremely resistant against Primordial Soul secret techniques. It will take you out if you’re not careful,” Huai Hongxiu shouted a warning to Mo Wen in an anxious voice.
