Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint

Chapter 791 - 249 Hurry up, Saint! _3

Gu Yuqing remained silent.

Seeing this, Wang Mu shook his head.

Wang Mu asked via their connection, "What’s the situation now?"

The Moon God replied, "I’m not skilled in combat, and naturally can’t defeat him. Even with Little Kun, we couldn’t beat him; we could only barely manage to exchange blows."

Wang Mu asked, "That powerful?"

The Moon God explained, "There’s no helping it. The Flame Virtue Star Palace controls the All Heavens Divine Flames. Although there are few Immortal officials within it, their combat strength is formidable. Even if they are only at the Ascension Realm, we can’t handle them if they don’t use Karmic Fire."

Wang Mu pressed, "As the Moon God, don’t you have any means at your disposal?"

"I could risk temporary injury and join forces with Little Kun to seal him for a short time, but that’s all," the Moon God said. "And we can only seal his cultivation. If he wants to use other abilities, especially that Karmic Fire, we are powerless to stop him. The Karmic Fire is useless against me, but its effect on you all is even more terrifying."

"How terrifying?" Wang Mu inquired.

The Moon God elaborated, "Once the Karmic Fire ignites, those of you with heavy Karma will be directly incinerated, your Divine Souls utterly scattered. You might fare slightly better. Your Karma isn’t as heavy, so you’ll probably only lose some Life Span. But for you, with so many debts, you hardly worry about one more. Besides, someone has locked your fate; you can only live so long anyway."

Wang Mu pondered, "If he’s sealed, then he won’t pose a threat to me anymore, right?"

"How could that be?" the Moon God retorted. "If it burns you for a while longer, and then someone else comes to claim your life, you wouldn’t live much longer, would you?"

"So the Karmic Fire directly burns up the Karma?" Wang Mu asked.

"No," the Moon God clarified. "Karmic Fire operates by directly absorbing your Karma into itself. The Karmic Fire itself possesses immense power and contains Upper Realm Principles. Therefore, the heavier your Karma, the longer the Karmic Fire will remain on your body, and the more severe the damage you’ll suffer. The principle is roughly like that... As for the specifics, it’s quite complex."

She continued, "In the Upper Realm, Karmic Fire is generally used to punish Immortal officials tainted by Lower Realm Karma. So, this Immortal official also holds some punitive responsibilities for Upper Realm Immortal officials, naturally making him very strong."

Wang Mu nodded slightly.

He then asked, "If we seal him, can we get a drop of his Immortal Blood?"

The Moon God replied, "Little Kun and I will be injured just by sealing him, and we’ll already be stained with his blood then. If you don’t have a follow-up plan, it might not bode well. Hey, what do you want his blood for? Although his Realm is suppressed, the blood in his Immortal Body is still Immortal Blood. It’s beneficial and harmless to you Lower Realm Cultivators, but you mustn’t use it to cultivate recklessly!"

"No, don’t worry," Wang Mu reassured her. "That person impersonating Dongfang Mu will be here soon."

"Can he handle this Immortal official?" the Moon God questioned.

"Of course not..." Wang Mu trailed off, "but..."

In fact, when designing this step, Wang Mu intended to use this Immortal official to eliminate Piao Miaoxu.

There was no other way; Piao Miaoxu was simply too troublesome.

Ever since hearing that Piao Miaoxu was impersonating him, Wang Mu had been contemplating this method.

In the game, Dongfang Mu was him, but he wasn’t just Dongfang Mu from the game. He was also a... laid-back youth, shaped by modern society.

As for his methods, anything was fine as long as it achieved his goal.

He didn’t share Piao Miaoxu’s stubborn conviction that Dongfang Mu *had* to die by her hand.

As long as Piao Miaoxu could be eliminated, any method was acceptable to him.

Currently, to deal with Piao Miaoxu—who was impersonating him and protected by a host of powerful allies—the Immortal Cloud Kun did have the strength, but the cost would be eliminating those experts around her first.

That was a price Wang Mu couldn’t tolerate.

Another method was to leverage a different Ascension Expert. Currently, in the Nine Provinces Cultivation World, this Immortal official was the only one Wang Mu knew of with such capability.

Of course, directly eliminating Piao Miaoxu might not be possible.

That was just the best-case scenario.

The worst-case scenario, naturally, was Piao Miaoxu not being eliminated, while he himself managed to infiltrate her side, secretly looking for an opportunity to take her down.

That was the plan.

As for whether it could be pulled off...

Wang Mu looked towards Gu Yuqing beside him.

She wore a cold expression, gazing into the turbulent void.

A moment later, a figure was blasted out of the void.

Her pupils contracted—it was Brother Wang!

Wang Mu glanced over. Heh, this Moon God’s strength isn’t much to speak of. But that suited him just fine.

Sure enough, witnessing this scene, Gu Yuqing was clearly shaken.

She indeed had a way to communicate with Piao Miaoxu.

Since a wisp of consciousness had been born from the ancient tree in her Sea of Consciousness, she could use this wisp to appear with Piao Miaoxu in the same soul domain for communication.

This mysterious method of communication truly astonished her.

Because it was clearly not a normal method of communication for Cultivators.

A normal Cultivator’s Divine Sense was simply incapable of constructing such a special soul domain, let alone communicating across vast distances.

"You see, your bosom friend is already done for, with only that spirit beast left," Wang Mu said. "Quick, have the Ancient Sage come over. This is the only chance to save him."

Gu Yuqing remained silent, closing her eyes.

「In Qianzhou, somewhere.」

The message from Gu Yuqing... It seems it’s time...

Wang Mu calmly waited.

After the Moon God was blasted away, it wasn’t long before Little Kun Kun’s massive form was smashed out from the void. He crashed into the Ruoshui Pond, and the resulting splash, like a blooming bright lotus, nearly scattered all the Cultivators around the pond.

Truly, in an Ascension Level battle, those even slightly weaker lacked the qualification to even withstand the aftershocks.

Little Kun’s strength is still a bit inferior to the Immortal official’s, Wang Mu thought.
