Alchemy Sovereign Against the Heaven

Chapter 1802 - 1793: Going Alone

The people present were mostly at the second or third tier of the Reverse Life Realm, yet Mo Wangchen, who was at the first tier, stood out.

This indeed made him quite conspicuous.

In this fight for the Crystal Mine, the more people there are, the fewer Divine Crystals each individual would receive. With Mo Wangchen’s first-tier Reverse Life Realm strength, he could hardly contribute to the team, and if they did gain ownership of the mine, they would still have to give a share to him, which caused dissatisfaction among many.

"Since everyone thinks I’m not qualified to join forces with you, I’ll just leave on my own."

To everyone’s surprise, Mo Wangchen merely shrugged fearlessly.

In reality, he had already planned to leave and didn’t want to enter the Wind Devouring Forest with Li Xuan, Xiao Ran, and the others.

Having already reached this point and knowing the general location of the Crystal Mine, there was no reason to continue partnering with others.

"Why must Brother Mo leave? Your strength is not much weaker than those present here," Zhang Ziling couldn’t help but furrow his brow.

In truth, rather than teaming up with Xiao Ran and others, he preferred to be with Mo Wangchen; after all, they came together from Yunyi City, and it was better to be with people you know more about, unlike Xiao Ran and the others who he had just met.

Moreover, they had witnessed Mo Wangchen’s strength; last night in Yunyi City, he easily killed the Purple Howl Double Killers, and that kind of strength was not much weaker than most present.

"If you’re leaving, then I’ll leave with you." The Tianqing Saintess stepped forward.

In fact, she had never intended to team up with Li Xuan and the others; she was only here because of Mo Wangchen.

"No need."

Mo Wangchen shook his head, "The Wind Devouring Forest is full of dangers; it’s not wise to act alone. It’s best for the Saintess to stay with them."

Having said that, Mo Wangchen winked at the Tianqing Saintess and transmitted a secret message, "Stay with them and act as my inside contact when the time comes."

Hearing this, the Tianqing Saintess frowned slightly but eventually nodded.

Unlike the Tianqing Saintess and Zhang Ziling, Zhuge Qing was delighted to see Mo Wangchen leave the team.

After all, he had good relations with the Purple Howl Double Killers in the Divine Sword Universe, and there were some secret dealings between them. Now that they had been killed by Mo Wangchen, it cut off his business opportunities. He was still looking for a reason to deal with Mo Wangchen, and now that he had left the team, wouldn’t it be legitimate to take action when they met again in the Wind Devouring Forest?

"Since Brother Mo insists on leaving, I won’t stop you. The Wind Devouring Forest is full of calamities; you should be more cautious." Li Xuan spoke with a faint tone.

At first glance, his words seemed like a kind reminder to Mo Wangchen, but in reality, his thoughts were quite similar to Zhuge Qing’s.

Of course, he wouldn’t choose to act against Mo Wangchen at this moment. Since they came here together, if he acted just after Mo Wangchen left the team, it would seem unjustifiable and might affect his authority in the team.

"Farewell."

Mo Wangchen, not bothering to waste words with them, give a slight bow and turned to leave the place.

"It’s getting late. Before us, there were two teams that had already entered the Wind Devouring Forest. We should hurry, or else if they find the Crystal Mine first, our efforts will be for naught?" Xiao Ran had not said a word about Mo Wangchen leaving, or rather, he didn’t care about it at all.

Indeed, in his eyes, Mo Wangchen was just an unknown figure at the first-tier Reverse Life Realm; even if he left, what impact would it have on the overall strength of the team?

Before long, under the leadership of Xiao Ran and Li Xuan, their team of nearly a hundred people began heading towards the Wind Devouring Forest.

Until they completely disappeared in the thick mist deep within the forest, Mo Wangchen’s figure reappeared at a certain place outside the Wind Devouring Forest.

He hadn’t truly left but had hidden instead because Mo Wangchen knew that Li Xuan had a Breathing Plate and was most likely to find the Crystal Mine. By secretly following them, he would also be able to locate the mine.

When that time came, whether he could fight for the mine’s ownership would depend on everyone’s ability.

While walking towards the Wind Devouring Forest, the further inside he went, the thicker the fog became, and the air grew colder. The temperature in the Wind Devouring Forest was much cooler compared to the outside.

Because the fog was too dense, visibility was highly limited, and Mo Wangchen didn’t dare to follow too closely for fear of being detected, so he had to occasionally release his Perception to locate Li Xuan’s group.

He also discovered that in this Wind Devouring Forest, there were Forbidden forces that isolated his Perception. Outside, his Perception could cover an area for thousands of miles without any issue, but in this forest, it could only cover a distance of about a hundred feet.

And to avoid detection, he had to periodically release his Perception.

The entire sky above the Wind Devouring Forest was shrouded in thick poisonous fog. This was a Life Forbidden Zone, and even during Ancient Times, the Divine Spirits living here had never fully explored it.

It’s not that the area was vast, but rather the numerous dangers it contained that no one throughout history had reached its deepest parts. No one knew what was there, as those who went there never returned.

"Several teams already went in before us. Following their tracks should help us avoid many unnecessary troubles."

Around Mo Wangchen, there were also many small groups entering together, and everyone was smart enough not to choose an unexplored path but to follow the paths others had taken into the Wind Devouring Forest.

As a result, most people converged into a small area, and the dangers supposed to be encountered had already been cleared by those ahead.

"Oh? It’s a Divine Crystal!"

No one knows how long he traveled; Mo Wangchen, mingling alone among the crowd, suddenly heard a voice of astonishment coming from his right side not far away.

Looking closely, he found a peculiar flower about half the height of a person growing under an ancient tree. The flower had three colors and bore a fruit hanging beneath the tricolored petals.

"What kind of peculiar flower is this? It actually produced a Divine Crystal?"

Not only Mo Wangchen but many others were also drawn to it, gathering around the position of that peculiar flower.
