Chapter 886: Mechanized Maze City

The experience and consolidated knowledge of a warrior who had become immortal were much more useful in a short period of time than the legacy of the Star Emperor had been to Mo Wen.

The legacy of the Star Emperor and the legacy of Ji Wuya were both of very high levels. However, Mo Wen’s current realm was too low, and they were too far-fetched for him and so were of minimal help.

Even though Xiang Buwei’s memories were different, he was a warrior who had become an immortal in the Primordial Soul Realm. He had just gone over the threshold of the rite of passage martial arts. To Mo Wen, Xiang Buwei’s martial arts experience was much easier to understand and accept.

In terms of cultivation realms, it was the same for warriors who became immortals and immortal cultivators. There was the Primordial Soul Realm, the Tide Changing Realm, the Supreme Profundity Realm, the Divine Illusionary Realm... The difference was in the path taken for the two different types of cultivation. There were many paths leading to the great path and the ultimate destination of all cultivators was the same.

The experience of a warrior who was in the Primordial Soul Realm was exactly what Mo Wen needed.

Furthermore, in Xiang Buwei’s memories, there were also four rite of passage martial arts which were what he had learned in his life. Mo Wen accepted his memories and naturally had a very good grasp of the rite of passage martial arts he studied. Mo Wen could use these martial arts skills almost without cultivating in them.

What was coincidental was that the four rite of passage martial arts Xiang Buwei learned were both Cold Ice and Fire profound meaning. This was the most suitable for Mo Wen since he had learned the Nine Yin Divine Technique and the Nine Yang Divine Technique. He could easily integrate the four rite of passage martial arts into his own skills.

If it had been a Wind profound meaning of Earth profound meaning martial arts, Mo Wen would not be able to unleash their power.

Once a warrior entered the immortal realm, he would understand and cultivate the power of profound meanings. That was a power that Mo Wen could not understand or imagine at this stage.

If Xiang Buwei had not been imprisoned, based on his power in the profound meanings, he could have killed Mo Wen with a flick of his finger.

“Cold Ice Domain.”

Mo Wen was shocked. Xiang Buwei had learned a type of rite of passage martial arts called the Cold Ice Domain.

Mo Wen knew a little about this martial art technique because he had seen Wang Yinru using it some time ago. At first, Wang Yinru promised to teach him this martial arts skill but Mo Wen did not cultivate it. He could see that while the Cold Ice Domain was powerful, and was even more powerful than ordinary absolute rank martial arts, Wang Yinru did not learn the entire set of martial arts skill but just part of it.

Mo Wen was not interested in cultivating a partial martial arts technique. As such, he had left it to one side.

He did not expect that he would see the Cold Ice Domain in Xiang Buwei’s memories again. Even though it was different from Wang Yinru’s Cold Ice Domain, it was a complete set of martial arts techniques. It was much better than Wang Yinru’s imperfect Cold Ice Domain technique.

“Xiang Buwei was really a talent of his generation. He had managed to cultivate four rite of passage martial arts to this level. No wonder the Huatian Palace took more than ten years to capture him back then.”

Mo Wen was shocked. He did not leave the Cold Valley immediately but found a quiet and secluded spot in the valley to examine Xiang Buwei’s four rite of passage martial arts. Even though Xiang Buwei had cultivated the four rite of passage martial arts to an extremely high level and had passed it all to Mo Wen in one go, Mo Wen wanted to completely familiarise himself with the techniques. He also needed to get used to them.

Mo Wen stayed in the Cold Valley for another day. He started his journey again on the third day. After finding the direction the Mechanized Maze City was in, he started moving forward.

Even though there were many criminals from the Heart of the red stone who stopped him on his journey, there were not many of them who could threaten Mo Wen given his current cultivation. Even if the old woman in the third martial arts realm appeared again, Mo Wen was confident that he would be able to kill her.

One day later, a towering ancient city appeared in front of Mo Wen. The city was built on several mountain peaks and was exceptionally grand and magnificent. It looked as if it was built on the clouds.

Mo Wen climbed up on one of the mountains that was ten thousand meters high. It was high up in the clouds. Mo Wen reached the enormous doors of the ancient city.

This was the Mechanized Maze City. Legend was that a mysterious assistant palace lord of Huatian Palace built the city. The assistant palace lord was a highly-skilled gimmick master who studied the gimmick techniques of the immortal cultivation realm for his entire life. He was very experienced and learned.

Other than a grand palace lord, the Huatian Palace had four assistant palace lords. They were all very powerful people. At least, they were considered the most powerful existence at the pinnacle in the main space.

An assistant palace lord had built the Mechanized Maze City which was filled with countless secrets. It was said that the assistant palace lord resided in it and the city was the center of research in all things related to gimmicks.

“A city on top of a ten thousand feet mountain. This sort of wonder probably only exists in the immortal cultivation realm,” Mo Wen could not help but lament as he looked at the city.

There was only one city gate to the Mechanized Maze City. Right outside the Mechanized Maze City was a ten-thousand feet abyss. The city gates hung in the air like doors to heaven.

Anyone who wanted to enter the Mechanized Maze City would have to be verified and then be led inside by a rainbow.

It was doubtful that even a bunch of immortal cultivators in the Primordial Soul Realm would be able to enter without permission even if they worked together. It was because the mysterious assistant palace lord was in the Supreme Profundity Realm.

“Please pay 500 points if you wish to enter the city.”

A voice suddenly rang in the air as Mo Wen wondered how to enter the amazing city.

Mo Wen turned to see where the voice came from and realized that the voice came from an enormous mountain wall. Humanoid features appeared on the flat surface of the mountain wall. It had eyes, eyebrows, and a nose. It had all the features of a human face.

What was that!

Mo Wen had an odd thought. Was that the legendary mountain deity or a mountain demon?

He had read about such rock type demons in the classics. They could turn into large mountains. However, those types of demonic beasts were relatively rare, and there were not many of them even in the Demon Realm.

“I am the Divine Mountain that guards the city, and I am in charge of whoever enters or leaves the Mechanized Maze City. If you agree, hand over your jade pendant. I will send you into the city once 500 points are deducted.”

The enormous face on the mountain wall spoke again.

A Divine Mountain that guards the city! Mo Wen laughed bitterly to himself. The name itself inspired respect.

However, one needed to pay 500 points to enter the Mechanized Maze City. Those without 500 points would not be able to enter even if they got to the city.

Mo Wen took out a jade pendant. It indicated that he had more than 20,000 points. It did not matter if he had 500 points deducted from it.

However, what made him slightly upset was that he did not know what happened in the past few days since he was cultivating in seclusion. Many had surpassed him in terms of points and Mo Wen had fallen from the top ten. He could not even find his name among the top 20.

Did all those hidden experts come out to steal points?

Mo Wen thought of Bai Chen. He was not at all famous before this, and his name could not be seen amongst the top 100. However, his cultivation levels were terrifyingly high.

Now, Bai Chen was in sixth place. He had more than 50,000 points.

A flash of green light shone from the mountain wall. It scanned Mo Wen’s jade pendant. Then, in the next moment, the points on Mo Wen’s jade pendant fell by 500. At the same time, a rainbow flew out from the Mechanized Maze City and enveloped Mo Wen.

In an instant, Mo Wen felt a large power tugging at his body. He lost control over his own body. However, that only lasted for a mere moment. He was standing above the city gates of the Mechanized Maze City in the next moment. The pulling sensation had disappeared completely as well.

“Welcome to the Mechanized Maze City.”

A voice rang from the watchtower. A group of people appeared in front of Mo Wen. To be more exact, a group of humanoid creatures appeared in front of Mo Wen.

Robots!

Mo Wen had a weird thought. The creatures that approached him were all puppets. They were very similar to the robots in the outer worlds.

What shocked Mo Wen was that these puppets seemed to possess their own thoughts and intelligence. He could see the flicker of intelligence in their eyes.

How was this done? He had never seen puppets who had their own thoughts.

“Distinguished participant, the next round began when you arrived at the Mechanized Maze City. You can now choose between two destinations: the Death Fighting Square and the Hundred Practice Combat Tower. A friendly reminder: there will be life-threatening dangers in the Death Fighting Square but you will also gain more points there. If you wish to be the top ten in the Heaven List, the Death Fighting Square would be your choice. The Hundred Practice Combat Tower is relatively safer. The chances of participants dying are minimal. However, it would be difficult to gain high points there. Please choose based on your abilities,” a female robot who led the group approached Mo Wen said in a mechanical manner.

Mo Wen realized that while these robots had thoughts, their minds were simple. Their ability to think was similar to wild beasts.

Yet, even so, the gimmick skills of the assistant palace lord were startling.

“Then I shall go to the Death Fighting Square,” Mo Wen said lightly. Since he was participating in the Heaven List battle, then he should work hard to achieve a good result. Furthermore, being in the top ten of the Heaven List was a prize that everyone dreamt of. He was no exception.

He had already realized that the Death Fighting Square was probably the reason he was being left behind on the list.

“Then please come with me.”

The female robot smiled mechanically. Then, a flying ship stopped automatically in front of the two of them.

Mo Wen boarded the ship under the instruction of the female robot. It flew into the air with a whoosh and into the Mechanized Maze City.

Mo Wen had a bird’s eye view of the entire Mechanized Maze City from the flying ship. It was a relatively modernized ancient city. Everything in the city was automated and it was relatively large. On the flying ship, Mo Wen could not see where the city ended.

Very quickly, the flying ship stopped in front of a building that looked like a torch. The torch-like structure was large. The bottom consisted of a rounded pillar that was a thousand meters tall. It was 300 meters in diameter. On the top, was an oval square. It looked like a torch from afar.

The Death Fighting Square.

Several enormous ancient characters appeared in front of Mo Wen.

After Mo Wen alighted from the flying ship, the female robot brought him into the torch structure. Then, they took an elevator up straight to the highest floor.

The square on the highest floor was massive and magnificent. It was the size of a hundred soccer fields and perhaps outside, it would be the size of a small town. However, here, it was just a square in the air.

Mo Wen immediately noticed the auras of many people in the square in the air the moment he appeared. There were probably several thousand auras! Why were there so many people here? There were not so many competitors for sure.

“Younger brother, you’ve finally appeared. I thought you were eliminated before you got through the heart of the Red Stone. I was worried for an entire day.”

A coy voice rang in the square. Then, a lithe figure appeared in front of Mo Wen.
