Chapter 618: Giant Crocodile Beast King

After just one day on the island, Mo Wen had already been attacked by a few waves of monstrous beasts. Fortunately, they were not all very powerful, the strongest being just an intermediate stage seventh rank one. If a pinnacle of the seventh rank monstrous beast appeared, Mo Wen would have most probably been forced to abandon the island.

“In the Fire Domain, there are actually so many human strong practitioners. My ability is still far from enough.” Mo Wen had been practicing. He opened his eyes and looked at the dark red sky above him with a serious expression. The fact that he had so casually encountered two Martial Arts Grandmasters showed how dangerous the Fire Domain was. The sects were sending their most formidable warriors. Also, in the Fire Domain, there were Seven Major Beast Kings. Each of them had high cultivation. If it was likely that even human Martial Arts Grandmasters would not be a match for them in one-on-one combat, especially if magical treasures were not used.

Mo Wen had previously been able to discover some information about the Fire Domain by talking to Jun Wulei. There were a few hidden strong practitioners from the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension present. This time though, the human ancient martial art practitioners that had come to the Fire Domain were mostly ancient martial art practitioners that had crossed over from other Inner worlds. These included Gao Clan from the Zhen Wu Inner world; the members of the Ming Temple from the Floating Mystery Dimension; the Golden Dragon Sect from the Sirius Inner world and so on.

These factions were all pinnacle existences in their respective large Inner worlds. Because of the spiritual fire, they had all gathered in the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension, a small Inner world that usually would not draw any attention at all.

For Martial Arts Grandmasters, the attractiveness of the spiritual fire could not be overstated. Hence, most of the teams that had come over this time included Martial Arts Grandmasters.

What Mo Wen had not expected was that, as well as Jun Wulei, his beautiful Vermillion Bird Palace Hall team leader Pei Fengwu had also come to the Fire Domain. Jun Wulei had also told Mo Wen that the four of them that were here were all Huatian Palace Executors.

However, that wasn’t the whole truth. In reality, the factions behind them had long known about the spiritual fire through various intelligence networks. At the same time that they were making their way over, the factions behind them had also sent out their members to infiltrate the Green Ancient Mystery Dimension.

The four young people who had been sent understood that their formation of a team was an act of deception. The purpose behind it was to prevent the people who were interested in the factions behind them from discovering news about the spiritual fire from them.

Hence, after they entered the Tan Zi Beast Lair, they had each found a reason to leave the group. All of them knew what each other was doing but no one pointed it out.

Mo Wen also now knew that the woman called Jin Ying was one of the four. No wonder she had said told him that she still had a faction behind her and that she was not alone.

She had also told Mo Wen that she had two pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioners backing her. From the looks of things now, she most likely had kept some more hidden. According to Jun Wulei, Jin Ying was from the Sirius Inner world’s Golden Dragon Sect. Also, Golden Dragon Sect was a sect at the pinnacle of the Sirius Inner world. The sect would most likely have more than one Martial Arts Grandmaster.

Thinking about these powerful adversaries made Mo Wen’s head hurt. Based on his rough calculations, there would most likely be more than five Martial Arts Grandmaster present, and that was still the most conservative estimate. There were also still the Seven Major Beast Kings of the Fire Domain who seemingly were constantly protecting the spiritual fire. Against such a line-up, it would be very difficult for Mo Wen to obtain the spiritual fire.

“Since I am already here, then there is no reason to give up.” Mo Wen sighed. Although the task ahead was extremely difficult, he was now in the Fire Domain and didn’t intend to leave without giving it a go. The spiritual fire was very important to him. If there was even a small possibility of success, he would not give up.

“With my current cultivation, it will most likely be very difficult to compete with those strong practitioners. If I can raise my cultivation to the Golden Elixir realm, then it will be fine.”

Mo Wen’s gaze flickered once. If he could cultivate a Golden Elixir, then he believed that his cultivation would not equal to that of a later stage Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. Together with various other methods, when he encountered an existence such as a Martial Arts Grandmaster, he would most likely be able to put up a fight.

After thinking about it, Mo Wen suddenly took a large number of medicines that could increase his cultivation out of the medicine spiritual ring. He placed the jade bottles in front of him. Most of these panaceas were top notch concoctions that Mo Wen had made while in Intentionless Sect. All of them were concocted from spiritual medicines. So many of these treatments would be enough to allow an ancient martial art practitioner to break through to the Golden Elixir realm in a short amount of time.

But Mo Wen was different. His immortal cultivation techniques were special, so his situation would also surely be. Whether or not these medicines would help him break through to the Golden Elixir realm was difficult to say. However, no matter what, he had to give it a try.

With a flick of his finger, a black light suddenly shot out of Mo Wen’s medicine spiritual ring. The light became larger and turned into a two meter tall black and gold metallic person. It was the puppet that Mo Wen had obtained from the underground palace hall.

The puppet’s combat ability might not be as powerful as his, but for when he was practicing, it was the best form of protection. He would absolutely be at ease.

The Black Gold Puppet’s combat ability was comparable to the later stage Golden Elixir realm. Dealing with a few ordinary monstrous beasts would not be an issue.

Only after he had adequately prepared did Mo Wen consume the panaceas one by one. He focused his entire being on breaking through to the Golden Elixir realm.

Time flew by. The number of medicines before Mo Wen gradually decreased. Consuming large amounts of these panaceas caused his body’s aura to be very unstable. Sometimes it would be strong, sometimes it would be weak. When it was strong, it almost reached the pinnacle of the Golden Elixir realm. But when it dropped, it was not even comparable to the beginning stage Golden Elixir realm.

After two days, Mo Wen opened his eyes from his reclusion. He gently sighed, the corners of his mouth curling into a bitter smile.

He had failed!

He had once been a Golden Elixir realm ancient martial art practitioner. He had some experience of breaking through to the Golden Elixir realm. But his current situation was different from his previous one. He was now practicing three martial arts methods simultaneously. If he wanted to coalesce a Golden Elixir, he needed to find an equilibrium between these three methods.

The only way for Mo Wen to break through to the Golden Elixir realm would be by testing different methods out to see what worked. There had never been a situation where someone practiced three martial arts method simultaneously. He also did not how to coalesce a Golden Elixir in such a situation.

Of course, it was not that Mo Wen had no experience at all. He naturally had confidence in doing so if he dared to practice three martial arts method simultaneously. Even with the heritage of the mysterious Jade Buddha statue, which also gave him a lot of guidance, he still had to figure things out himself, progressing bit by bit.

To put it bluntly, what Mo Wen lacked was time. He believed that, given time, he certainly could break through to the Golden Elixir realm. But right now, time was against him.

Up till now, Mo Wen’s cultivation had always broken through very rapidly, almost skyrocketing. Although he could increase his cultivation in a short amount of time this way and improve his ability, it was not without its disadvantages. The greatest disadvantage was that his martial arts method realm and the martial arts teachings realm could not keep up with his cultivation.

His martial arts teachings realm was one thing. He had enough martial arts teachings and did not need to practice each and every one of them to the standard of a high realm. This was especially the case now that he had the three Glory techniques.

But it was different for his martial arts method realm. His martial arts method realm was deeply connected with his cultivation.

For example, the Nine Yang Divine Technique and the Nine Yin Divine Technique had seven levels each. They were divided into seven realms, each realm having different mysteries.

Although Mo Wen’s current cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing realm, his martial arts method realm was only at the fourth level. If he did not increase the realm of his martial arts method, then the difficulty of breaking through to the Golden Elixir realm would be much harder than before. It may even be impossible.

That was because breaking through to the Golden Elixir realm was different from the other realms. It required coalescing a Golden Elixir inside one’s body and a very high martial arts method realm.

“Although I did not break through to the Golden Elixir realm, at least my cultivation has increased a little.” Mo Wen sighed. Although he had failed, his Inner Qi was now quite a bit denser. Compared to before, he was slightly more powerful. Consuming all those medicines had not been in vain. If it was an ordinary pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing realm ancient martial art practitioner, they most likely would have broken through to the Golden Elixir realm.

Mo Wen opened his eyes. He discovered that the monstrous beast corpses before his eyes had accumulated into a small mountain. Blood had dyed the small island red, but a three-meter radius from where Mo Wen sat cross-legged was immaculate. Not a speck of blood had stained the area.

Nearby, the Black Gold Puppet stood like a small mountain. Its black and gold metallic figure gave off a majestic look.

In the three days that had passed, the Black Gold Puppet had killed an immeasurable amount of monstrous beasts. There were probably hundreds of corpses on the ground, but the puppet’s body remained bright and clean, being unstained by any contaminants.

Mo Wen swept a glance across the ground. The monstrous beasts were mostly fifth and sixth rank. Occasionally there were a few seventh rank monstrous beasts, but their levels were not high.

“Nicely done.” Mo Wen subconsciously uttered these words. For three days, he had not been disturbed at all. The Black Gold Puppet’s contributions could not be overlooked. However, he also knew that the Black Gold Puppet could not understand him at all. It only knew how to follow orders and complete its mission.

Rumble! Just as Mo Wen was preparing to take the Black Gold Puppet and begin his journey to find the whereabouts of the spiritual fire, the magma ocean near the small island suddenly emitted a loud sound. Waves rose to the sky and magma splashed. A huge creature gradually floated up. First, a head appeared. The head was the size of the island beneath Mo Wen. It was a hundred meter square in area. It was followed by an entire body floating to the surface of the ocean.

It was a giant crocodile that was unbelievably huge. Its entire body was black and red, and it was clearly extremely ferocious and aggressive, like a prehistoric behemoth. It seemed to Mo Wen that the Giant Crocodile could swallow him and the small island whole.

“A Fire Domain’s Beast King!”

Mo Wen’s expression changed slightly. He could tell from the aura coming from the Giant Crocodile’s body that this terrifying monstrous beast was certainly an existence at the level of a Fire Domain’s Beast King. Its overwhelming and terrifying aura was far superior to that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster.

“A mere human actually dares to kill so many of my kin? Die!”

A voice came from the Giant Crocodile. It was like rumbling thunder, seemingly shaking even the sky. Its bloody mouth suddenly opened wide, furiously spraying out a dark red pillar of light.

The pillar of light was scorching hot, its temperature several tens of thousands times hotter than the magma. Everywhere the red light passed touched seemed to be burned red by it, even the sky.

Mo Wen felt a frightening suppression descend upon his body. He felt as though he was carrying a large mountain on his shoulders. Even he could not withstand shaking a little. The pressure was definitely much more frightening than a Martial Arts Grandmaster’s. It was the pressure from an ancient, ferocious beast.
