Chapter 1126: Chapter 1117: Safe Haven
Mo Wangchen briefly explained the incident with Monk Gudeng to everyone in Mo Pavilion.
Nobody thought too much of it; since Mo Wangchen had the courage to protect the opposite party, he surely had a way to deal with the Purple Flame Sect.
In the following few days, Monk Gudeng quickly bonded with the disciples of Mo Pavilion.
Not only did he partake in the construction of the mountain gate, but the interactions were extremely harmonious between both sides.
After all, Monk Gudeng was a master at the peak of the Void Immortal Realm, regarded as an absolute great power by everyone.
No one expected that, having just arrived at the Daluo Heaven Realm, Mo Wangchen could quickly attract such a figure. How could Mo Pavilion not rise?
During this time, Monk Gudeng learned the true origins of Mo Wangchen and the others, feeling even more surprised.
He hadn’t imagined that the youth who severely injured three elders of the Purple Flame Sect had just come up from the Lower Realm plane.
"Daoist Fellow, are you also from the Lower Realm plane?"
Xue Qinglin’s cultivation was similar to Monk Gudeng, and they got along best, often gathering at night after a busy day.
Monk Gudeng nodded, "My ancestors were once royal members of the Lower Realm plane, coming here ten thousand years ago, fighting in all directions and earning a great reputation; yet this also invited many enemies, leading to the destruction of our family. Though some tribesmen escaped, in this generation, I am the only one left."
Hearing this, Xue Qinglin was somewhat emotional. In the Daluo Heaven Realm, strong individuals were as common as trees, and not just anyone could leave a reputation.
Even he, once the top master of the Qingling Continent, was now just an ordinary figure among many cultivators here.
Monk Gudeng’s ancestors could make a name here and establish a family, showing what an extraordinary presence they had in days past.
"In these past few days, I heard that Brother Xue was once the top master of Qingling. Then Mo Venerable is..."
Before he could finish, Xue Qinglin smiled, "I do not know the origins of Mo Venerable, but now that Mo Pavilion is established, he has provided us with a sanctuary. We should respect him together and refrain from idle speculations."
Monk Gudeng nodded but felt some concern in his heart, "I am grateful for Mo Venerable’s assistance, but the Purple Flame Sect has stood in the south for many years, with deep foundations rumored to have a Sect Master who has entered the Half-Step Heavenly Immortal stage. Once he crosses that threshold, the Purple Flame Sect will surely proclaim itself a Sacred Land, holding dominion. If I cause trouble for Mo Pavilion because of this..."
"Brother Gu need not worry; since Mo Venerable has acted in this way, he has his reasons. Just stay assured."
Three days later, with the efforts of everyone, the Mo Pavilion mountain gate was finally completed.
Due to the incidents in Quan City, over the past few days, some cultivators have come, evidently learning that Mo Pavilion is establishing its mountain gate here.
At this moment, the mountain gate reached Great Success, perched atop a solitary peak, shrouded in immortal mist, indeed presenting a semblance of a major sect.
"Who exactly is the Master of Mo Pavilion, Mo Venerable?"
"Back then, he injured three elders of the Purple Flame Sect, protecting Monk Gudeng. I thought he would be a Saint Heir from a Sacred Land, yet unexpectedly, he founded a sect here."
"Those disciples of Mo Pavilion seem unimpressive in strength; what might this Mo Venerable’s cultivation be?"
"Being able to take on three elders of the Purple Flame Sect, he must indeed be a person who has stepped into the True Immortal Realm, counted as a famed master of the region."
In this godless era, the Heavenly Immortal Realm has already reached the peak of Dao, and looking over heaven and earth, a True Immortal is regarded as a notable figure.
"Heh, if he’s only at the True Immortal Realm, then he is too overconfident; the Purple Flame Sect has stood in the south for many years and dares to rival Sacred Lands. There are no fewer than five True Immortal masters within the sect, each a famed figure, and if they mobilize, Mo Pavilion could be annihilated in an instant."
"I am more curious about the origins of this Mo Venerable and his so-called Mo Pavilion. Why have we never heard of them before?"
Outside Mo Pavilion’s mountain gate, many figures gathered, hearing about the incident in Quan City, then coming to watch the scene.
"Mo Pavilion is newly established, under the command of Mo Venerable, with the mountain gate open to all cultivators from today. But one thing, within Mo Pavilion, any visitor must not act rashly or harm others,"
At this moment, Xue Qinglin soared out from Mo Pavilion, facing the crowd and speaking aloud.
"This is a master with True Immortal Realm cultivation!"
Someone’s heart trembled, revealing surprise in their eyes.
"Considering it thus, Mo Pavilion seems to have two True Immortal Realm great powers presiding; such strength is indeed considerable."
The crowd nodded, for in this godless era, while True Immortal Realm individuals are not rare, it cannot be said they are everywhere.
A force with two True Immortal Realm masters presiding is enough to intimidate a region.
"What arrogance, hearing your words, is Mo Pavilion intending to become a peaceful safe haven?"
Suddenly, from afar, a powerful aura appeared, accompanied by a divine voice echoing everywhere.
Behold, dozens of figures flew swiftly into the sky; these were dozens of masters now standing side by side. Their auras assailed and caused the Heavenly vault to boom, seemingly twisting.
"It’s the people from the Purple Flame Sect!"
"My heavens, these dozens are all masters at the Void Immortal Realm level, numerous are at the peak, and the leading one has even stepped into True Immortal Realm cultivation; it’s Wu Chongtian, the Outer Sect Great Elder of the Purple Flame Sect!"
All around, the gathered cultivators outside Mo Pavilion’s mountain gate gasped in surprise.
They recognized this group who suddenly descended; they were all experts from the Purple Flame Sect, each with formidable auras, evidently stepping into the Void Immortal Realm.
"If you encounter trouble, you may enter Mo Pavilion to seek refuge; anybody can do so. According to Mo Venerable’s words, Mo Pavilion indeed aims to become a peaceful safe haven."
Xue Qinglin furrowed his brows slightly, his gaze sweeping across the dozens of Purple Flame Sect masters, finally stopping on Wu Chongtian as he spoke softly.
"Arrogant."
"Anyone may enter, seeking refuge here? Does it mean Mo Pavilion has become invincible, daring to boast so?"
"Even all Holy Lands dare not make such claims; you are merely a newly founded sect, yet you wish to become the safe haven for all the world, simply ignorant!"
Many from the Purple Flame Sect sneered, with expressions of disdain on their faces.
With a wave of Wu Chongtian’s big hand, he quieted them down, looking directly at Xue Qinglin, "Recently, Monk Gudeng stole the Purple Flame Sect’s treasure and is now in Mo Pavilion. Quickly hand him over, and we must also have an explanation for injuring three elders of our Purple Flame Sect."
