Chapter 368 - Return to the Ruins
"This... How could this be? According to the map, this should be the Corydalis, why is it in ruins! "
In many places, there were even black smoke that remained after being burnt by the flames. According to the map, this originally perfect Cultivation City was now in ruins, and this made Li Mu feel extremely uneasy, and even made him feel as if he was dreaming."Could it be that there are traces left behind by the demonic energy? This is too terrifying, to actually destroy a second rate Cultivation City. If we add this kind of city mortal to the ranks of the cultivators, I'm afraid that there would be no less than a million of them! "
Luan Tian also saw the ruins below Li Mu. His powerful spiritual sense seemed to have noticed something strange in the air, and his tone became even more gloomy.
"Residues of demonic energy? Could it be the crazy Heavenly Demon Devouring Emperor! Right! It's definitely him, the Corydalis isn't too far away from the Taixuan Valley, and also belongs within its sphere of influence. No wonder a huge city like this was destroyed, and we couldn't even see a single corpse, only that devil who devoured human flesh and blood essence was able to do such a thing! "
"This is too cruel!" "Just how many deaths must have been created? If the heavens have eyes, then they should've brought down heavenly tribulation to hack him to death!"
Li Mu clenched his fists tightly, gnashing his teeth in anger at Heavenly Demon Devouring Emperor. It was one thing to slaughter cultivators on a small scale, but to even kill mortals who don't know anything about cultivation was insane.
"I don't know why he's trapped in the Grand Mysterious Realm, but so many thousands of years have pa.s.sed, and right now he's madly devouring the essence of my human body just to recover his vitality. He's a Demon Emperor, his lifespan is long, his demonic arts are monstrous, if he were to recover to the peak, the entire Yuheng Continent would be covered in his devil might, and at that time, I'm afraid it'll be a catastrophe of destruction!" Luan Tian said worriedly.
With my current cultivation, I don't have the ability to get rid of all the harm done to the cultivation world. Even if the sky collapses, the tall one should be the one to handle it, the top ten sects of the Yuheng Continent should not ignore this kind of matter, I believe that before long, the demon will be surrounded and exterminated by the cultivation world, and as long as he doesn't go to the Qin Nation or Chu, it will be fine!"I've only heard about how terrifying the True Demons is, but I've seen it before. He slaughtered the entire city in a fit of rage, yet not a single drop of blood was left behind. It's truly beyond the capabilities of a human."
"It's a pity, I was originally planning to borrow the Corydalis's teleportation circle to go directly to the Gold Jade City, but now I see that there's no hope, the nearest city to have a teleportation circle is another Cultivation City's Star City in the Luo Yu Country, it's still three to four days away. If not for my breakthrough in cultivation to the sacred art realm, I could fly in the air, and if I were to use my movement technique, who knows how long I would have to take to reach there."
Li Mu sighed, he was prepared to leave in the direction of the nearest teleportation array star city, but just as he was about to move, he suddenly stopped. Just a moment ago, he seemed to have sensed the signs of life in the vicinity, but logically speaking, the Corydalis that was being swallowed by the Heavenly Demon Devouring Emperor had already turned into ruins, there shouldn't be any survivors.
"There's someone down there!" Three hundred meters to the right of you, you seem to have used some sort of earth-attributed Dao talisman to enter the underground. Your cultivation is not high, you are at the early Houtian realm. "Without waiting for Li Mu to search thoroughly, Luan Tian's voice sounded in Li Mu's mind first. After hearing it, Li Mu's body moved, transforming into a gold light that landed not far away from Luan Tian's location.
"Who is it!?" "Hiding here secretly, why haven't you appeared yet!"
Li Mu bellowed at the ground not far away that was covered in what seemed to be ruins. Immediately afterwards, he struck out a Golden Geng Sword Qi, turning a stone pillar into powder.
"Senior, please spare us!" Senior, spare me! "Under Li Mu's might, a somewhat fearful voice came out from the ground, followed by an earthen yellow flash of light, and a frail youth crawled out from the ruins.
This was a youth who was dressed in tattered clothes, and looked to be no more than fourteen to fifteen years old. He was anxiously grabbing onto an earthen yellow bead that had a simple design, and looked at Li Mu with fear written all over his face.
"What's your name? Why are you here?"
Seeing that his cultivation was only at the early stage of the Lesser Heaven stage, Li Mu relaxed his guard. He was just a youth with a low cultivation, obviously he would not be harmed in any way.
"I... My name is Qi Tian, in Corydalis... Three days ago, a huge devil descended upon our city and immediately began devouring the seven to eight hundred thousand people in our Corydalis. I relied on this ancestral treasure to hide in the ground and only then was I able to escape from this calamity.The youth dressed in ragged clothes who called himself Qi Tian stammered as he explained.
"Seven or eight hundred thousand people are dead? You all aren't fools, why aren't you running? I believe that no matter how strong that devil is, he can't withstand hundreds of thousands of people fleeing in different directions! " Li Mu asked with doubt in his eyes.
"That devil is really too powerful and cunning. Once he arrived, he used nine black pearls to seal the entire city. There's no way out of this world, no one can escape, so …" That's why they're all dead. Senior, I beg you to let me go, I am just a small fry who is nothing in your eyes, I don't want to die! "
As he spoke, the frail youth Qi Tian directly knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Li Mu. It was obvious that he was fearful of Li Mu, this expert whose aura was extremely strong.
"What are you doing? When did I say that I would kill you? You and I have no grievances or grievances. I don't need to do nothing to harm a Houtian realm junior like you. Hurry up and get up!"Li Mu's performance made him speechless. He thought that no matter how he looked, he didn't look like an extremely vicious person, yet the other party actually thought that he wanted to kill him.
"AHH!" Senior, you didn't kill me, sigh, that's good, I thought you were an evil cultivator, you scared me to death! "
Upon hearing that Li Mu did not have any intentions to kill him, Qi Tian immediately stood up.
"You relied on this pearl in your hand to escape into the ground? This is impossible, there are a lot of people in the Corydalis that can't think of this method, why couldn't anyone else do it, you already thought of it, and since he can seal the entire Corydalis, could it be that he can't even do a small restriction on earth escape? "
Li Mu felt that something was amiss. It was not like he had never seen the Nine Palace Gla.s.s Beads that was sent out by the heavens, but to seal an entire region was indeed extremely strong, and the underground escape was obviously impossible. He had seen the warriors that were trapped in the magic pattern light barrier back in Taixuan Valley trying to use the earth escape method to leave, but they were unable to do so as the ground was also sealed.
"It's true! This ancestral treasure is called the Pearl of Return to the Ruins. I relied on it to escape underground!"
Noticing that Li Mu was suspicious of what he had said, Qi Tian immediately explained in a loud voice."Let me see, I don't believe that this Pearl of Return has such a miraculous ability. It can block the seal of a large success Saint Weapon!"
Li Mu stretched out his hand towards Qi Tian as the orb in his hand became extremely interested.
"This... This won't do, this is a treasure pa.s.sed down from my ancestors, it's the most precious thing on my body. What if you don't give it to me after I show it to you?
Qi Tian saw Li Mu reaching out his hands towards him and immediately held the Pearl of Return tightly in his arms, looking as if he was afraid that Li Mu would s.n.a.t.c.h it away from him. This made Li Mu want to laugh, this little fellow was previously scared to death of him, but now he actually dared to go against him.
"If I really want that pearl in your hand, do you think you can keep it? "Hurry up!"
Li Mu deliberately lowered his face and walked towards Qi Tian.
"You … You said that you won't kill me. As a senior, your words cannot be spoken without thinking! "
Seeing Li Mu walking towards him, Qi Tian kept on retreating, while walking, he talked to Li Mu, hoping that Li Mu would not make things difficult for him."Oh, hahaha, you are really too naive. Let's put it this way, don't say that I don't keep my word, even if I don't kill you, beating you half to death and stealing your treasure, would you still be able to resist? Don't waste your breath, otherwise, I will kill you right now!"
Li Mu said with a sinister look, trying to scare Qi Tian.
"I only know how to bully my child. If you have the ability, go and fight against that devil!" Tch! Take it and look at it. Don't forget to return it to me! "
As if he had been frightened by Li Mu, Qi Tianzhi unwillingly threw the earthen yellow pearl in his hand to Li Mu. At the same time, he could not help but mutter a few words.
Li Mu didn't plan to argue with a little brat. He grabbed the dirt yellow bead that the other party threw to him and started observing carefully.
"Huntian, can you see what it is? To be able to ignore the restrictions unleashed by the Heavenly Devouring Demon Emperor, if it's true, then it might actually be a treasure!" However, I have tried using my Spiritual Awareness and Quintessential Essence. This is just like a dead object. I didn't see any reaction at all. "Li Mu looked at the earthen yellow pearl in his hand. After a long while, he did not find anything special, so he asked for advice.
"I've also used my Spiritual Sense to observe it. It is indeed a very ordinary thing, but it is too ordinary. The more it is like this, the more problems it will have. How about this, let this little guy try again. If he can activate this Pearl of Return, then he should know some secrets."
Even an experienced and knowledgeable old man like him was unable to see through the mysteries of this Pearl of Return to the Ruins.
Boy, you're lying to me, right? This thing is clearly a very ordinary thing, but you said that it can break through that devil's barrier, so who are you lying to? Originally, I didn't want to kill you, but I have a problem with it, and that's that I can't stand being cheated.
Li Mu's eyes turned cold, and his tone also became ice-cold. His river crossing step flashed, and he arrived in front of Qi Tian.
"You … I didn't lie to you, it's true! Only I can activate this Pearl of Return to Ruins, it's true, I didn't lie to you, this is something pa.s.sed down through my ancestors, it has been pa.s.sed down for many generations, in the last ten generations, only I can activate it! "If you don't believe me, I'll show you!"Qi Tian was shocked by Li Mu's cold words, and quickly explained.
Li Mu scoffed in his heart, this was exactly what he wanted, and he directly threw the earthen yellow Pearl of Returning Ruins to the other party.
Qi Tian gritted his teeth as he received the Pearl of Return. Afterwards, he bit open his own fingertip and dripped a drop of his blood essence onto the Pearl of Return. As soon as the blood essence dripped onto the Pearl of Return, it was immediately absorbed.The thing that caused Li Mu to frown was that after absorbing Qi Tian's blood essence, the pearl actually started to react, but the pigeon egg-sized pearl started to emit a few lines of blood red light, and shortly after, a yellow spirit light was emitted from the Pearl of Extinction, directly enveloping Qi Tian within it …
