Chapter 979 - Ambush
Three days later, Li Mu and the other three turned into four streaks of light and left the temporary cave dwelling they had created. Their goal was the Poison City that was not far from the Hundred Thousand Mountains.The Poison City did not belong to any country, nor did it specify which region they belonged to. It was an independent existence of the Cultivation City, and the reason Ren Xiaoyao and the others wanted to go to the Poison City was because there was a long distance teleportation circle there.
Didn't you say that you wouldn't be going to the center of the continent in a short period of time? What if you meet that girl Xiao Ya halfway?
As a Heaven's Pride disciple of the Lothar, and an existence that was similar to her own generation as well, naturally, she had quite a few healing pellets on him, so she had only spent three days worth of time to regrow her lost arm."That's right, that little girl from the Xiao family is notoriously difficult to deal with. Moreover, she even gave you a thing like the Holy Dragon Blood Fruit. She has a deep friendship with you. If she knew that you lied to her, your days wouldn't be good."
Ren Xiaoyao teased Li Mu.
"She's already been gone for three days, how could we possibly meet again? Besides, so what if we did? I'll just say that you did your best to invite me to your Footloose Sect to have a look. I found it hard to refuse her kindness, so I changed my mind at the last minute."Li Mu knew that his two brothers were teasing him, so he didn't mind and replied with a smile.
"Ha hha, that's a good idea. I think it's fine, but you said it first. Otherwise, I'm afraid that if we were to meet again, it would be hard for me to help you."
Ren Xiaoyao could not help but laugh out loud, and gave Li Mu a thumbs up for the idea.
"Oh right, third brother, tell me the truth. You went to the central continent this time and even said that you wanted to go to Holy City. What exactly is the matter? It's not convenient for you to tell your big brother that if there's anything I can help you with, I'll do my best to help you as well."
After Ren Xiaoyao laughed, he turned serious and asked.
"Mm …" If it were anything else, of course I wouldn't dare to hide anything from my big brother. However, there's something special about this trip to the central continent. I promised a friend that I wouldn't say a single word about it, so … So it really is a bit inconvenient. "
Li Mu remembered his agreement with the empty Monk of the Yunhai Temple, and said with some difficulty.
"Oh so it's like that, then there's no harm. I understand. After all, sometimes it is not easy to break an inner demon oath, so let's change the topic. After you and I separated back then …"Just like this, Li Mu and the other three talked about their past as they walked. Three days later, the four of them arrived at their destination, Poison City.
The walls of this Poison City were completely black like ink, as if it was made of a kind of black jade or stone. Furthermore, from far away, one could see that in the sky above the city, there was a vast expanse of black clouds.
"Eh? This city looks a bit strange. Why is there a black poisonous cloud above the city? If I'm not wrong, this black poisonous cloud contains poison that would kill any cultivator at the sacred art realm."
Just as he arrived outside the Poison City, Li Mu felt that something was wrong. This was the first time he had seen such a unique Cultivation City.
"Young master, the reason why this Poison City is called Poison City is because 70% of the people living in this city are poison cultivators. Even most of the things sold in this city are related to poison."Because this city is close to the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range, and the Hundred Thousand Mountain Range doesn't have anything else, but the poisonous plants and poisons that contain the deadly poison are filled with many demon beasts and materials, and they slowly feed the people of this city. Because there are too many people who practice poison cultivation methods here, over the years, some poisonous elemental energies have fused with the clouds in the sky and turned into this poisonous cloud.
Seeing that Li Mu had raised such suspicions, the sword shadow quickly explained. As the Pavilion Master of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets, she was the one who understood the information the most.
"That's right, Enchanting Shadow is right, and it's said that this poisonous cloud has been fused into an array formation, and is one of the Poison City's methods of protection." Di Yun followed and explained.
"I never thought that there would be such a background in this Poison City. Oh right, who is in charge of this city now?"Li Mu, Enchanting Shadow and the others walked towards the city gate and asked.
"This city does not belong to any faction, because it is located at the border between the three great regions of the north and east of Yuheng Continent. It is precisely because the location of the Poison City is a little awkward that no neighboring country would dare to forcefully take it in."
"After all, in the cultivation world, if a single city separated itself from the three big regions, that would not cause too much trouble, but a country is different. If the countries in the northern part of the continent occupied it, then the powers in the eastern and central parts of the continent would not be affected."
"If it was any other place, then it would be fine. The Poison City has a long distance teleportation circle that connects to the center of the continent. However, once someone from one of the powers meddle, it will definitely arouse the displeasure of the forces from the other two regions. The sword shadow continued to explain.
Hearing the explanation given by the sword image, Li Mu immediately nodded his head, as though he understood something. This was the first time he had heard of such a city, and the four of them quickly entered the Poison City.Upon entering the Poison City, Li Mu immediately felt a pungent smell, he knew that it was a type of mixed poison aura. If one did not have the slightest bit of strength, an average person would have died on the spot upon smelling the poison aura, of course, the cultivation of Li Mu and the others would not be affected at all.
Walking on the streets of the Poison City, Li Mu saw many shops located along the two sides of the street, and there were quite a few people walking on the streets. Although the streets looked like the Poison City was quite prosperous, but very quickly Li Mu changed his mind, because he had not walked far, and he saw a b.l.o.o.d.y battle.He saw four to five black robed cultivators slaughter an old man and a young man in the street. Moreover, no one came out to stop them.
"He can actually kill people in the city, does no one care about this Poison City at all?"
Looking at the black clothed men walking away after killing the old man and the young man, Li Mu muttered to himself.
Ren Xiaoyao shook his head: "This Poison City is an independent Cultivation City, who cares, here basically follows the path of strength, whoever is strong can run amok, if not, then we can only allow ourselves to be trampled on."
Li Mu nodded his head when he heard this. Under the guidance of the sword shadows, they took many turns inside the Poison City, and in the end, they arrived at a place where there were not many people, a dilapidated Jade Square.This Jade Square area wasn't large, it was only a few hundred meters in radius, and there was only a single lone Transfer Array on the plaza. Aside from the small area where the arena was located, this plaza was filled with potholes, and it seemed like a battlefield that had experienced many battles.
"This is the teleportation plaza? This also... This is a bit too rotten, right? Furthermore, it's just a teleportation formation, and there's no one to manage it or to destroy it! "
This was the first time Li Mu had seen such a shabby teleportation plaza, and he immediately said somewhat speechlessly.
"That's not strange, because there's no one in charge here, so there are often people lying in ambush here. There are many people that get smashed into meat pieces the moment they step out of the transmission array. This is called a transmission square, rather than a battlefield where people ambush and kill their enemies." The sword shadow explained."What!?" If that's the case, then that's fine too. Since the other party was able to teleport out, then we might as well ambush them here. However, since we've experienced so many battles, why haven't this teleportation array been destroyed? " Li Mu still had some doubts.
"It's said that this teleportation circle was set up by a Saint rank expert back in the day. It's something far beyond what an ordinary teleportation circle could compare to. Without the power of a Holy-rank, it's impossible to destroy it.Ren Xiaoyao seemed to understand a lot about the teleportation circle in Poison City. After explaining the situation to Li Mu, he brought Li Mu and the others and walked towards the teleportation circle.
But just at that moment, the change occurred and over a hundred beams of light suddenly shot out from all directions. They surrounded the entire Teleportation Square.Li Mu looked around, and discovered that the Leader of these people was actually Qu Jian Xie of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and among these hundred people, there were quite a few disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Seeing that they were prepared, Li Mu knew, they had been ambushed.
