Chapter 615
Even though Jun Wulei was now a practitioner in the intermediate stage of the Golden Elixir realm, he could not fight against his grandfather . He had just emerged from the sea of lava but was then forced straight back into it by Gao Hanshan . There was a splash and he disappeared without a trace .
"Senior Gao, why are you making things difficult for me?" Mo Wen asked coldly .
"You are the inheritor of the ancient Ming Cult yet you did not keep your skills hidden and practice cultivation . Instead, you came to such a dangerous place . I want to see what you're made of . "
Gao Hanshan ignored Mo Wen's questions . He reached out and a terrifying aura burst from his body . He did not hold back at all this time . The air within a hundred-meter radius twisted, binding Mo Wen tightly like a prison .
He took a step forward and appeared in front of Mo Wen . His palm reached out swiftly . It seemed as if the force behind it was weak yet the power behind it was great . It was sufficient to kill a practitioner at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm with a single strike .
Mo Wen would not be able to withstand such an attack without using the power of spiritual weapons . Gao Hanshan did not take any risks with his attack, unleashing all the power he had as a martial arts grandmaster .
Even though it was just a simple strike that did not make use of any martial arts techniques or treasures, it exerted a great amount of pressure on Mo Wen .
Five rays of light rose from Mo Wen . Mo Wen had been prepared when Jun Wulei told Gao Clan of his identity because he was afraid that they would act against him . He converted the spiritual stones in the medicine spiritual ring into spiritual power . The Five Beast Hoops emerged from Mo Wen's sleeves and then gathered in a corner, turning into five great monstrous beasts . Each beast released a powerful aura which caused the sea of lava to roll .
Five golden chains emerged from the five beasts . The chains bound together, forming a golden web that covered Mo Wen . The glittering gold light made them look as if they were formed from real gold .
A look of surprise flashed in Gao Hanshan's eyes . He could definitely see that the five different hoops making up the Five Beast Hoops were all top-grade spiritual weapons . When the five hoops combined, their power was equivalent to that of a profound level weapon . The youth had such a precious weapon that was rarely seen, even in great sects .

However, Gao Hanshan did not care . No matter how strong the weapon was, its power really depended on who was using it . The difference between their cultivation levels was like heaven and earth . How could a single treasure make up for it?
Indeed, when Gao Hanshan's palms landed on the golden web, the seemingly strong golden light web only held on for less than a second before disappearing . The five bronze hoops also flew into the air .
His palm paused for a while before continuing towards Mo Wen . Even though the force behind it had decreased by 30 percent, it was still insurmountable to Mo Wen .
The Gao Clan elders were close by . They glanced at each other and sighed . It was commendable of the lad to be able to hold on for so long . After all, the difference in cultivation levels between him and the martial arts grandmaster was vast . They were not even of the same caliber .
They all knew that Gao Hanshan's aim was to test the youth and he did not have any ill intentions . However, this test would determine Gao Clan's attitude towards Mo Wen, making it very important to both parties .
Even if the youth was truly the inheritor of the ancient Ming Sect but did not have much talent, he would not go far in life . The Gao Clan would not acknowledge such a person .
Even when faced with pressure asserted against him by a martial arts grandmaster, Mo Wen remained calm . He had expected that the Five Beast Hoops would be unable to stop Gao Hanshan . Almost at the same time as the Five Beast Hoops failed, a purple gas and a ray of red light emerged from Mo Wen's sleeves .
The purple gas turned into a small purple gourd . The moment it appeared, it shot a ray of purple light onto Gao Hanshan . The purple light pillar seemed to have the ability to freeze space . The entire heaven and earth quietened in one moment .
Gao Hanshan's motions paused . Then, he slowed down slightly . Even though he had the cultivation levels of a martial arts grandmaster, he could not avoid the influence of the purple colored light pillar .
There was a flash of surprise in Gao Hanshan's eyes . The young man had quite a few treasures and rare treasures at that . The purple bottle gourd was directly affecting him, seemingly able to ignore his cultivation levels . That was a little shocking . However, the power of the purple bottle gourd was not very strong . Gao Hanshan only paused for a moment . Then, his palm shook slightly and an invisible force pushed back against the light . The purple pillar of light could not withstand it and disappeared gradually .

The pause had decreased the power behind Gao Hanshan's strike by a further 20 percent .
In the next moment, a ray of red light appeared . It turned into a fire dragon that collided fiercely with Gao Hanshan's fist .
The fire dragon was a treasure that was the perfect choice for Mo Wen at this moment due to its strong attack capability . There was a loud crash and the air within a hundred-mile radius began to roll .
A jade ruler flew out . It was a top grade spiritual weapon that Mo Wen had gained from the underground hall . However, a weapon like this was not very effective against the martial arts grandmaster's simple attack . Its effect was not as good as the purple bottle gourd, only weakening the strike by 10 percent .
Mo Wen had blocked the attack three times before reducing the power behind Gao Hanshan's attack by 60 percent . However, the remaining 40 percent was still terrifying . It was almost equivalent to a full strength assault of an ancient martial arts practitioner at the peak of the Golden Elixir realm .
Gao Hanshan had already arrived before Mo Wen . He no longer had time to use any treasures to stop him . Gao Hanshan looked at Mo Wen with slight surprise . The youth had been able to quickly activate three spiritual weapons . It might seem simple, but it was difficult to seamlessly activate spiritual weapons interchangeably .
After all, warriors were not immortal cultivators . Warriors had to go through the process of turning spiritual stones into spiritual energy before they could use spiritual weapons . Also, the way warriors used spiritual weapons was not as refined as immortal cultivators .
In other words, even Gao Hanshan would have trouble using three different spiritual weapons one after another in such a short period of time . Mo Wen was also able to get the spiritual weapons to work together . That was even more difficult to achieve .
The old men from the Gao Clan did not consider the usage of spiritual weapons . They only nodded . Even though Mo Wen had not managed to fully block Gao Hanshan's attack, his performance was outstanding . He had remained calm from beginning to the end and had acted strategically without fumbling .
Mo Wen could not block Gao Hanshan's remaining power, but at least the strike which would have taken his life earlier would now only injure him severely . In light of the disparity between their cultivation levels, this was already considered a success .
Just as the elders were contemplating this, they were surprised to see Mo Wen take a step forward . He decisively interrupted Gao Hanshan's attack .

Mo Wen did not look at all afraid . In fact, one could even say he looked brave and determined as if he was not facing a martial arts grandmaster but a warrior whose cultivation levels were below his .
The old men from Gao Clan glanced at each other . The expression in their eyes was similar to each other . Was the youth mad? Or perhaps he could not bear the pressure, which was why he was acting so wildly .
If it were them, they would definitely keep on defending themselves, protecting their body to minimize the damage to themselves . Perhaps they might even make it through the attack . Rushing up and welcoming the attack was as good as seeking death .
Energy worked both ways . Rushing up to the attack meant that the force of the blow would greatly increase .
Mo Wen had indeed moved quickly and attacked with both his palms . Starlight burst forth from his body . In the end, he seemed to have turned into a cloud of stars . Those looking on were all dazed, enshrouded in the stars and clouds .
The palms met . There was no sound of forceful collisions . Instead, it was exceptionally quiet .
At this point in time, Mo Wen was like a quiet lake . Gao Hanshan's power seemed to have poured into the lake and sunk into the bottom of it .
"Absolute skill . How is that possible!" Gao Hanshan shook, clearly finding it impossible to calm down . There was shock in his eyes and he looked as if he had seen a ghost .
He had…his power had been forced down by a youth using the absolute skill! How was this possible!
The other elders from Gao Clan were also shocked . Their mouths hung wide open and they looked at Mo Wen dazedly .
They all knew about the absolute skill . They always used the skill to tease their juniors while training them . Based on their attainments of martial arts, they could even inhibit their juniors without using inner Qi .
The absolute skill was a symbol of going against martial arts attainment .
If Mo Wen was facing a Qi Nucleation realm warrior or an Embryonic Breathing realm warrior, they would not be surprised if he used the absolute skill . However, Mo Wen was facing the clan leader of Gao . He was a martial arts grandmaster! Who in the world could use the absolute skill before a martial arts grandmaster?
"Am I dreaming? What's going on?" Jun Wulei had just emerged from the sea of lava and was shocked by what he saw . He rubbed his eyes incredulously, not believing what was happening in front of him .
He had been inhibited by his grandfather's absolute skill before and the memory was still fresh in his mind . He had never considered that someone could use the absolute skill to inhibit his grandfather!
The power behind Gao Hanshan's strike faded completely . It did not affect Mo Wen at all .
Mo Wen's figure flickered and he slammed into the protective shield around them . He backed away several dozen meters . He had not been injured at all after taking Gao Hanshan's full powered strike .
"Senior from Gao Clan, you are indeed powerful . You bully a junior with your high cultivation levels . Excuse me . I hope we meet again . "
Mo Wen was not stupid enough to stay there . His figure moved swiftly and he appeared several dozen meters away . Then, he started running . He could not fly because it would be impossible for him to escape from the martial arts grandmaster if he did so . Instead, he burrowed into the sea of lava decisively, prepared to use the method he had used earlier to flee .
Gao Hanshan's cultivation levels might be higher than Bu Xingyi's . However, the Invisible Talisman did not care whether your cultivation levels were high or low . No warriors would be able to break through the effects of the talisman .
"Rascal, come back . " Gao Hanshan was still immersed in shock . By the time he regained his wits, Mo Wen had already run several hundred meters away and was about to dive into the sea of lava .
