Chapter 733: Breaking the Golden Gate | Trận Vấn Trường Sinh
Trận Vấn Trường Sinh - Updated on May 16, 2025
“Little senior brother……”
The tall Cheng Mo had a hint of “filial admiration” in his clear eyes, which made Mo Hua feel uncomfortable all over.
“Can you sell me a set of this armor, no matter how many spirit stones it costs!”
Cheng Mo was so greedy that his saliva was about to flow out.
The other several people heard this and all looked at Mo Hua with burning gazes.
Especially Situ Jian and Hao Xuan.
These two had not yet worn this armor, nor experienced the feeling of amplified spirit power and sharply increased Dao method power, so their faces were full of curiosity and longing.
Situ Jian was a sword cultivator and very much wanted to know how strong his Li Huo Sword would be after amplification.
Hao Xuan was now considered a “stick” cultivator, but he had also been a sword cultivator.
Even if he liked to use sneaky sticks, no one wouldn’t want to try powerful sword arts.
Mo Hua said: “This armor has quite a few restrictions, and the arrays inside are very complex. Without my divine sense control, there’s no way to amplify spirit power……”
Several people were slightly regretful.
But Cheng Mo still hurried to say: “Little senior brother, next time you want to do something, you must bring me. My request isn’t high, as long as you let me wear this armor, I’ll chop wherever you point.”
Cheng Mo promised with a serious face.
Mo Hua was a little helpless, “Alright……”
He looked up and saw that the sky was getting late, then said: “It’s getting late, let’s skin this pig demon first and talk about it when we get back.”
“Okay.”
This was a second-grade mid-period pig demon, with a fat head and big ears, a special category. Skinning it, removing bones, and taking out materials seemed like they could be worth quite a few merits.
Cheng Mo raised two big axes and started chopping the pig’s head.
The others also divided the work and cooperated.
Far away, Elder Xun’s mood finally calmed down after a series of complex psychological struggles.
Regardless of Mo Hua’s identity or where he learned arrays, he couldn’t interfere.
This was an old ancestor’s matter.
As a mere great-grandson in the Golden Core period, he didn’t have the guts, let alone the ability, to interfere in the old ancestor’s matters.
He remembered the old ancestor’s instructions: protect this child’s safety.
Other than this, all other matters were unrelated to him.
Elder Xun nodded and silently glanced at Mo Hua and the others again.
“However, even a second-grade mid-level, thick-skinned and blood-filled pig demon, could be killed by these children……”
“Truly the younger generation is formidable ah……”
Elder Xun sighed in his heart.
Although he said it was several people together, it was still very extraordinary.
The last time he had seen a disciple who could lead a team to hunt and kill a Foundation Establishment mid-period demon beast with only Foundation Establishment mid-period cultivation, it seemed to be Senior Brother Xuan……
His face with sword-like eyebrows, long beard, and upright appearance suddenly came to mind.
Thinking of this, Elder Xun’s gaze dimmed, and he felt melancholy in his heart.
Heaven envied talent ah……
Senior Brother Xuan that year was a stunningly talented sword Dao genius, the descendant of the sword Dao supreme and Divine Transformation Tai Xu old ancestor Du Gu, on whom the entire Tai Xu Sect placed high hopes.
But later, for some unknown reason, his life spirit sword shattered, and he declined from then on, blending into the ordinary.
Now his whereabouts were lost, and he had no idea where he went.
That year, the two of them cultivated together, practiced swords together, and were punished together; their friendship was deep.
But now time flowed, the great Dao was vast, and he feared they would never meet again.
Elder Xun was lost in thought for a moment……
But before he could be sad for long, several streams of cultivator aura transmitted from afar.
Elder Xun turned his head and looked in the direction of the aura, his brows slightly furrowed.
Mo Hua and the others were just skinning and deboning the pig demon.
A moment later, Mo Hua suddenly started and also raised his head, looking towards another mountain path. His gaze focused, and he said in a deep voice:
“Someone is coming.”
Cheng Mo was a little astonished and released his divine sense, but there was no one around.
But seeing Mo Hua’s somewhat solemn expression, Cheng Mo and the others knew what was going on. They each raised their axes, gripped their knives and swords, and looked vigilant.
Not long after, several streams of cultivator aura appeared within the range of their divine sense.
Cheng Mo and the others exchanged glances and detected a trace of unease.
These cultivators obviously sensed Mo Hua and the others, and instead of avoiding them, they swaggered over and appeared at the edge of the mountain forest.
A row of eight cultivators wore golden Daoist robes, hung golden swords at their waists, had pure gold elemental spirit roots, and looked handsome and arrogant.
Mo Hua thought to himself, indeed.
It was the Duan Jin Sect……
Among these eight people, their faces were all very strange. Seven of them were in the Foundation Establishment mid-period, and the leader was unexpectedly in the Foundation Establishment late-period.
It seemed like a Senior Brother from the Duan Jin Sect was leading a group of disciples to hunt demons.
This Foundation Establishment late-period Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother had a thin and tall figure, was externally golden and internally jade-like, and looked very remarkable when he raised his head.
To his right, a Duan Jin Sect disciple stepped forward, pointed at Mo Hua and the others, and said:
“Little devils, you’ve got guts. How dare you steal our Duan Jin Sect’s demon beast?”
Cheng Mo’s gaze focused, and he said in a cold voice:
“This pig demon was only killed by us after great effort and hardship. What does it have to do with your Duan Jin Sect?”
That Duan Jin Sect disciple sneered, “You several Foundation Establishment mid-period, wet-behind-the-ears disciples, how can you kill this second-grade mid-level demon beast?”
“This pig demon was clearly killed by us!”
“That’s right,” another disciple on the side echoed: “We besieged it together before, injured this pig demon, and have been chasing it for a long time. We were about to succeed, but you little brats were quick-footed and picked the peach……”
“Considering that everyone is a disciple of sects within the Gan Xue State, if you leave the pig demon, we can let bygones be bygones.”
Cheng Mo saw them twisting facts and was a little annoyed, “You’re full of dog farts!”
The faces of several Duan Jin Sect disciples changed, and they said in stern voices:
“Boy, watch your mouth!”
“Otherwise, we’ll have to properly teach you a lesson for your Tai Xu Sect elders.”
Cheng Mo sneered, “A bunch of wastes, not daring to do it yourselves, only knowing how to rob others’ prey.”
That Duan Jin Sect disciple was slightly angry, “You won’t accept good will and prefer punishment.”
The leading Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother was already somewhat unhappy and said silently: “Why say so much?”
He pointed at Mo Hua and the others and commanded:
“Leave the demon beast, and you roll.”
Cheng Mo was furious, and the gazes of Situ Jian and the others also turned cold.
Mo Hua’s eyes, however, flashed slightly, and he said in a low voice:
“Go.”
Cheng Mo and the others were startled, looked at Mo Hua, suppressed their anger, and slowly nodded.
They had just fought a battle with the pig head demon, consuming too much spirit power. Their strength had not yet recovered, and they were fundamentally no match for these Duan Jin Sect wastes.
What’s more, there was a Foundation Establishment late-period cultivator on the other side.
Although they looked down on the people of the Duan Jin Sect and felt they were petty, despicable, and shameless, they would not look down on the Duan Jin Sect’s Duan Jin Royal Sword Art.
That Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother had a golden sword at his waist, and sword qi floated around him; he was clearly a sword cultivator with decent cultivation.
A Foundation Establishment late-period sword cultivator would be very tricky to deal with.
If it were usual, they would be young and vigorous, and regardless of whether they could win or not, they would definitely rush up and fight first.
But now that the little senior brother had spoken, they had to go along with it.
Cheng Mo and the others fiercely glared at these Duan Jin Sect disciples, then slowly retreated.
Mo Hua mingled among the others, retreating together without attracting attention, and was not even noticed by the Duan Jin Sect disciples.
When the Duan Jin Sect disciples saw Cheng Mo and the others slip away, they didn’t try to stop them, but instead couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
“Old man will teach you a lesson……”
“Pretend to be tough, but don’t you still run away with your tail between your legs?”
“Next time you meet our Duan Jin Sect again, also run away with your tail between your legs like today, and roll early.”
A sharp-eyed disciple then gave a thumbs-up and flattered the Foundation Establishment late-period Senior Brother:
“Still Senior Brother, you are majestic, one sentence, this group of little rabbits, didn’t dare even fart.”
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother sneered, “What is this counted as……”
He then coldly looked down at Mo Hua and the others who were gradually moving away, “Just a few little devils, at least they’re sensible, otherwise, I would inevitably have to teach them the rules inside this Demon Refining Mountain.”
“Senior Brother is mighty!”
“This time, thanks to Senior Brother, we also benefited.”
“What eight great sects, don’t they still have to look at our Duan Jin Sect’s face……”
A crowd of disciples started flattering again.
Elder Xun, squatting in a patch of grass, listened with itching teeth and really wanted to make a move, teach these little bastards of the Duan Jin Sect a lesson, and support the Tai Xu Sect.
But he thought about it and decided against it.
This was inside the Demon Refining Mountain, not in a family or sect.
These disciples not only had to fight with demons, but there would inevitably be friction between disciples of other sects.
This was a matter between disciples, and they had to figure out a way to solve it themselves.
He listened to the old ancestor’s instructions, only responsible for protecting Mo Hua’s safety, and would not interfere in other matters.
A great man can bend and stretch.
Since Mo Hua knew how to endure and didn’t cause a conflict, he didn’t need to force a move.
Furthermore, suffering a setback was a good thing.
Suffering losses and being bullied now, learning a lesson, was always better than going out of the sect in the future and being easily tricked to death.
Just……
Mo Hua’s calm appearance appeared in Elder Xun’s mind again.
Despite suffering the ridicule and humiliation of the Duan Jin Sect disciples, Mo Hua’s expression was like water, without ripples, not a bit abnormal.
“This child, is he a character who can endure humiliation?”
Elder Xun was somewhat unsure for a moment……
But Mo Hua clearly was not.
Leaving the divine sense range of the Duan Jin Sect disciples, Mo Hua squatted down and started rummaging through his storage bag.
He picked out some arrays and some spirit tools.
“I’ll arrange the arrays myself later……”
“These spirit tools, some are armors, some are spirit swords, all of them have the 《Ke Jin Array》 drawn inside by me……”
The Ke Jin Array, as the name suggests, can suppress the five elements gold spirit power, a five-element restraining array.
Mo Hua had learned this array early on.
He had also taken the time to have Master Gu help refine several custom spirit tools of the Ke Jin type, which he usually kept in his storage bag for backup.
Now they came in handy.
“Also, this is Cang Wood Wolf’s poison, apply it to the knives and swords……”
“There’s still Tian Qing Snake’s blood here, which is also poisonous, mix and apply it……”
Cheng Mo and the others, who were originally feeling wronged and indignant, were startled, but thinking about it, they didn’t feel unexpected.
Cheng Mo then softly asked:
“Little senior brother, are we going to get revenge?”
Mo Hua corrected him: “Not revenge, just going to take back what’s ours, and by the way, teach them a lesson……”
Mo Hua’s gaze turned cold. How dare they steal my pig?!
Mo Hua continued: “You quickly sit in meditation and take pills, recover a bit of spirit power, and we’ll fight them later!”
Cheng Mo and the others were energized and said in unison:
“Okay!”
The reason Mo Hua didn’t make a move before was one, everyone had just finished a big battle and lacked spirit power;
Another was that they were few in number and at a considerable disadvantage.
While on the other side, there was a Foundation Establishment late-period cultivator.
A direct fight was really unwise.
A gentleman’s revenge, ten years is not too late.
Escaping safely first was the priority.
But, when everyone’s spirit power had recovered, with the enemy in the open and them in the dark, having schemes and opportunities, that was another matter.
A gentleman doesn’t harbor overnight grudges.
Just a few Duan Jin Sect disciples, they didn’t deserve him waiting ten years.
They didn’t even deserve waiting overnight.
After formulating the plan, Cheng Mo and the others also recovered their spirit power. Each put on their Ke Jin armor, gripped their Ke Jin knives and swords, which were quenched with various demon poisons and blood, and started using body techniques to move quickly through the forest.
They were young and vigorous, and had been ridiculed by the Duan Jin Sect disciples, already harboring a belly full of anger.
Now that they had the opportunity to retaliate, their eyes all emitted a cold light.
Far away, Elder Xun was somewhat startled.
He had just praised Mo Hua in his heart for understanding how to “endure,” but in the blink of an eye, they were carrying axes, knives, and swords, preparing to go “fight.”
They even quenched poison on their spirit tools.
Who taught them such sinister means……
Elder Xun shook his head.
This time, it was probably going to be a real conflict, and he couldn’t ignore it.
However, he also made up his mind.
If Mo Hua and the others won, then he would just watch.
If Mo Hua and the others lost, he would then make a move to help.
He was an elder after all, and had to have the “demeanor” of an elder……
Elder Xun silently moved and followed behind Mo Hua and the others.
Mo Hua and the others then went all the way south, chasing in the direction where the Duan Jin Sect disciples had left.
Along the way, Mo Hua released his divine sense, meticulously observing and tracking the traces of the Duan Jin Sect disciples. After chasing for half an hour, they finally found the figures of that group of Duan Jin Sect disciples on a mountaintop.
The pig head demon had already been skinned for materials by them.
They were returning “fully loaded” and were now gathered at the foot of a mountain slope, sitting around drinking wine and eating meat.
What surprised Mo Hua was that it was already evening, dusk was dim, the sunset had fallen behind the mountain, and it was about to get dark.
But this group of Duan Jin Sect disciples didn’t seem to be in a hurry to leave the Demon Refining Mountain.
“They want to spend the night on this mountain?”
Mo Hua frowned.
Why would they stay on the mountain instead of leaving early?
However, staying on the mountain was also good.
The dark was good for taking action.
Mo Hua took out several pieces of black cloth and had everyone cover their faces.
Cheng Mo said: “Little senior brother, even if we cover our faces, they should still be able to recognize us, right……”
Mo Hua shook his head and said with a serious face:
“Since we’re doing a sneak attack, we have to be ‘professional.’ Since others cover their faces, we also have to cover them, otherwise, it’s not according to the rules.”
Cheng Mo seemed to understand and nodded.
After preparations were finished, several people waited until dark, the night was deep, and the mountain wind was cool.
The several Duan Jin Sect disciples were sitting around a bonfire formation, drinking a bit drunk, with only two people guarding the periphery.
Mo Hua said in a low voice: “Act according to the plan.”
Cheng Mo, in order not to make a sound, bit a tree branch and nodded honestly.
After several people had taken their positions.
Mo Hua used a concealment technique and quietly approached the bonfire formation, then stopped at the periphery, took out a bottle of spirit ink, and quietly poured it on the ground.
The spirit ink seeped into the mountain stone and soil.
Guided by Mo Hua’s divine sense, under the cover of night, the spirit ink unknowingly started to form an array around them.
Elder Xun, who was just wondering what Mo Hua wanted to do, was also startled.
He knew Mo Hua wanted to set up an array, but he didn’t know exactly how Mo Hua could set up an array right under others’ noses.
Now he saw it.
Although the night was deep, his twenty-eight pattern Golden Core divine sense could still perceive the process of Mo Hua drawing the array.
Divine sense as a pen, the earth as a medium, manifesting an array on the ground in silence.
Elder Xun slowly took a breath.
He feared the old ancestor was strict and did not walk the array path, but under ear-hearing and eye-seeing, he still had vision.
This was absolutely not a means that an ordinary array master could control when setting up an array!
Could this perhaps…… also be taught by the old ancestor?
But……
Elder Xun’s gaze trembled slightly, “The old ancestor himself wouldn’t, would he……”
After all, it seemed logical.
The Duan Jin Sect disciples were arrogant and overbearing, with empty cultivation but little cultivation experience, insufficient vigilance, happily drinking wine and chatting, becoming more and more unguarded.
Mo Hua finished drawing the array, and they were all unaware.
Mo Hua shook his head.
It was a pity he had made several plans in case the divine sense array arrangement was discovered by the Duan Jin Sect disciples, and what to do after that.
Now it seemed he had overthought it.
After Mo Hua detonated the array.
A seventeen-pattern second-grade high-level array, although only an entry-level high-level array, was more than enough to blast these second-grade mid-period disciples.
As soon as the array exploded, mud and sand rolled in the night, and firelight filled the air.
Eight Duan Jin Sect disciples instantly fell five.
That Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother was also severely injured by the explosion.
Although he was a Foundation Establishment late-period cultivator, he was a sword cultivator and didn’t cultivate his body much.
Of the remaining three, Hao Xuan used a sneaky stick to knock one unconscious.
Yang Qian Jun and Cheng Mo suddenly became violent and each dealt with one.
The last four people joined hands and surrounded and attacked the severely injured Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother.
That Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother, who was arrogant and cold during the day, looking down on others, was now covered in dirt from the explosion, completely devoid of momentum, and flustered like a lost dog.
It seemed he really didn’t think that inside the Demon Refining Mountain, there were actually disciples who dared to ambush them.
Fortunately, he quickly calmed down, while urging his Duan Jin Sword Qi, he angrily shouted:
“Who exactly are you people? How dare you offend my Duan Jin Sect?”
Mo Hua ignored him.
Cheng Mo had a tree branch in his mouth and couldn’t speak.
The others also didn’t speak, only using all their moves, all aimed at the body of this Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother.
With the defense of the Ke Jin armor, the killing power of the Ke Jin spirit tools, and the demon poison quenched on the spirit tools, dealing with a severely injured Foundation Establishment late-period cultivator was not difficult.
But as they fought, this Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother still recognized them and said in shock:
“It’s you!”
Those five little devils from the daytime?!
But how was that possible……
How could these little devils dare, and how could they ambush him, a Foundation Establishment late-period cultivator leading a full eight-person Duan Jin Sect demon hunting small team?
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother was both shocked and angry, and said with a cold laugh:
“Good! Good! A bunch of ignorant little rabbits, today I……”
Before he finished speaking, Mo Hua already saw it.
“He wants to use the Duan Jin Royal Sword Art!”
Yang Qian Jun and the others immediately sped up their offense, suppressing this Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother.
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother was very aggrieved and reached out to take out a talisman.
Mo Hua said: “He wants to use the Gold Body Talisman.”
Yang Qian Jun heard this, swung his long spear, and aimed it at this Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother’s arm.
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother was shocked. What was the origin of this little devil? How could he anticipate the enemy first and see through his every move?
He gritted his teeth, took a spear from Yang Qian Jun hard, and with the injury, exchanged for a battle opportunity, still urging the talisman.
A layer of hazy gold light covered his body.
And this Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother quickly retreated several steps, relying on the Gold Body Talisman, starting to gather strength to display his killing move, the Duan Jin Royal Sword Art.
For a time, gold light was dazzling around him.
The golden sword qi and the golden spirit sword in front of him reflected each other, and the might was majestic.
Mo Hua instantly released a Water Prison Technique, but the light blue water light was blocked by the Gold Body Talisman as soon as it approached, unable to interrupt the accumulation of force for the Duan Jin Royal Sword Art.
The Gold Body Talisman was immune to ordinary spell control.
In a flash of lightning, Mo Hua shouted in a clear voice:
“Strong attack, chop him!”
At the same time, Mo Hua started to communicate with the five elements source armor.
Cheng Mo immediately understood, his expression excited, without the slightest hesitation, in just an instant, he ran his spirit power to the extreme and displayed the Open Mountain Axe Method, chopping towards the Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother.
He was a body cultivator, and his killing moves were faster.
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother couldn’t avoid it, his expression ugly.
But he had calculated it in his heart.
This axe would arrive first, and although its power was not bad, it was not enough to stop his sword art.
As long as he condensed his sword art, these several despicable little beasts would all be finished!
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother’s eyes turned cold.
But when Cheng Mo’s big axe chopped halfway, the light on his body armor flashed, and a mysterious power descended.
Cheng Mo’s power suddenly violently increased.
His double axes were surrounded by a more blinding luster, and their might was stronger.
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother’s face changed drastically.
Not right!
The power of this axe suddenly became strong?!
The Duan Jin Sect Senior Brother’s heart turned cold, but at this instant, there was nothing he could do but stare blankly as Cheng Mo’s big axe head chopped onto his shoulder.
This axe, with heavy momentum, broke his Gold Body Talisman and shook his entire body.
The axe blade caused severe injury, and blood flowed from his body like a stream.
Because the power was too great, his Duan Jin Royal Sword Art, which was halfway through accumulating force, was also interrupted.
Spirit power backlash, he sprayed a mouthful of blood and had no more power to resist.
This Duan Jin Sect Foundation Establishment late-period Senior Brother was defeated from then on and was pressed down by Cheng Mo with his big axe, slowly kneeling in front of Mo Hua.
