Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven

Chapter 1793 - 1784: Rescue

"What?!"

This unexpected scene caused Zhou Zijie’s face to change drastically.

Mo Wangchen’s attack was extremely swift, even Zhou Zijie couldn’t react in time.

Moreover, the terrifying power contained within those two Finger Lights just now made Zhou Zijie shiver.

This must be a master, and his strength far exceeds mine!

"Friend, I am Zhou Zijie, Saint Heir of the Zhou Family in the Tianxuan Universe, currently following Yunyi City Lord. I was ordered by him to hunt Monster Beasts and collect Divine Crystal this time when leaving the city."

While feeling fear in his heart, Zhou Zijie had no choice but to reveal his identity, hoping to intimidate Mo Wangchen somewhat.

After all, the disparity in strength between them is significant. If they truly fought, he had no doubt that Mo Wangchen could kill him in an instant!

"I know."

However, to Zhou Zijie’s surprise, after hearing his words, Mo Wangchen just nodded slightly, still expressionless.

Zhou Zijie immediately frowned, thinking that Mo Wangchen didn’t know the true identity of Yunyi City Lord, and couldn’t help but continue, "Today’s Yunyi City Lord is the Saint Heir of the East Flame Sect in Tianxuan Universe, named Li Xuan, one of the few Star Child Level experts in the Tianxuan Universe Divine Domain. You should have heard of him, right?"

"Never heard of him."

But what made him want to vomit blood was that Mo Wangchen shook his head straightforwardly.

"Stop saying so many useless things. I already gave you a chance earlier. Since you don’t want to hand over the Breathing Plate, then I can only take it myself."

As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Wangchen’s body flashed, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Zhou Zijie, his eyes lightly glanced at him.

"Buzz..."

An astonishing momentum erupted once more, Mo Wangchen’s fingers gathered Golden Radiance, as if transforming into a Divine Spear, sharp and unstoppable. Without any hesitation, he made a move, pointing at Zhou Zijie’s forehead.

"Wait!"

Zhou Zijie’s face changed dramatically, feeling the breath of death coming upon him, even he had to compromise, quickly saying, "Even if you kill me, you wouldn’t be able to use the Breathing Plate after obtaining it since it requires mastering a special method."

"Oh?"

Mo Wangchen’s arm shuddered, and his finger, radiating sharp energy, paused before reaching Zhou Zijie’s forehead, looking at him, "What special method?"

"I can tell you, but you must agree to let me leave. If you go back on your word, it won’t benefit you, as I’m working for Yunyi City Lord. If killed by you, he definitely won’t let it go."

Breathing heavily, Zhou Zijie truly felt the breath of death that was so close to him just now.

"Speak, I won’t kill you." Mo Wangchen said lightly.

As his voice fell, the sharp energy emanating from his finger in front of Zhou Zijie’s forehead gradually dissipated.

"Really?"

Zhou Zijie was overjoyed. As long as he could leave alive, everything would be negotiable. After reporting the matter here to Yunyi City Lord, Mo Wangchen certainly wouldn’t be able to sit by and do nothing.

After all, Mo Wangchen had obtained the usage method of the Breathing Plate, Yunyi City Lord wouldn’t let him continue to live.

Mo Wangchen remained silent, his eyes fixed on Zhou Zijie, seemingly waiting for his next words.

"Whiz!"

Zhou Zijie flipped his palm, took out the Breathing Plate, which was the size of half a palm, and handed it to Mo Wangchen, explaining the method of use.

"Can I leave now?"

Zhou Zijie’s body retreated slowly, afraid that Mo Wangchen would go back on his word.

"Although I’ve promised not to kill you, I can’t guarantee that she won’t." Mo Wangchen put away the Breathing Plate, chuckling lightly.

"What do you mean?"

Zhou Zijie frowned, his face looking somewhat unpleasant.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!"

Mo Wangchen suddenly turned his two fingers together, aiming at the marsh mud below.

A breathtaking light shone, containing endless terrifying energy, penetrating the ground directly.

"Crack crack crack crack..."

Not long after, the gigantic vines surrounding and endlessly massacring Tianqing Saintess suddenly exploded.

"This isn’t truly the Undying Demon Vine, but a type of Heavenly Dao Demon Beast; otherwise, how could you use the Breathing Plate to detect its presence? If it were truly the Undying Demon Vine, it would indeed be Undying, but unfortunately..."

Mo Wangchen laughed lightly. As soon as he arrived here, his powerful Perception detected an unusual energy fluctuation beneath the marsh. Initially, he didn’t know what it was, but now, it was clear that it was the core of this Undying Demon Vine.

Unlike a true Undying Demon Vine, this was a type of Heavenly Dao Demon Beast, a virtual creation that lacks the trait of being truly Undying. Destroying the core would eliminate the crisis.

"Die!"

Freed from her predicament, Tianqing Saintess immediately aimed her gaze at Zhou Zijie in mid-air.

This person attempted to trap her; if Mo Wangchen hadn’t intervened, she might have already died today.

"No!"

The cyan Sword Light flashed, containing towering Sword Force, and in the blink of an eye descended upon Zhou Zijie’s head. Tianqing Saintess showed no mercy, slicing Zhou Zijie into a bloody mist with one strike.

The scent of blood permeated the air, ultimately dispersed by the breeze. When everything fell silent, Tianqing Saintess finally turned her gaze to Mo Wangchen, slightly squinting her brow, she said, "I do not know you and you are not from Qiankun Universe, why did you intervene to save me?"

"For the Breathing Plate."

Mo Wangchen chuckled lightly, sizing her up for a moment. Initially, he didn’t plan to save Tianqing Saintess, but upon reflection, if he wanted to snatch the real Breathing Plate, it wouldn’t be simple. Yet, the Tianqing Saintess in front of him, though a bit simple-minded, undeniably had great strength, with Reverse Life Realm triple Cultivation.

If he could join forces with her, the chance to snatch the Breathing Plate from Yunyi City Lord would increase significantly.

Besides, Zhou Zijie was associated with Yunyi City Lord. Having almost been killed due to Zhou Zijie’s setup today, Tianqing Saintess formed a grudge with Yunyi City Lord.

The enemy’s enemy is a friend. Mo Wangchen’s intention was simple: to ally with Tianqing Saintess and together, seize the Breathing Plate from Yunyi City Lord!

"You deduced that the Undying Demon Vine is merely a type of Heavenly Dao Demon Beast, showing you’re quite capable. But I’m afraid you’ll be disappointed. Even if you join forces with me, the chance of seizing the real Breathing Plate from Yunyi City Lord is nearly zero."

Tianqing Saintess seemed to have seen through Mo Wangchen’s thoughts and shook her head, saying.

"How would we know without trying? I saved your life today, and in return, I only ask you to assist me in seizing the Breathing Plate." Mo Wangchen laughed.

Tianqing Saintess frowned once more, "Perhaps I didn’t make myself clear enough. Yunyi City Lord, Saint Heir of the East Flame Sect in Tianxuan Universe, is a Reverse Life Realm quadruple expert, with numerous protectors by his side. Do you think with the two of us, we can snatch the Breathing Plate from him?"
