Chapter 58 - The Fall of the Ancient Emperor
Being stared at by the Ancient Emperor"s corpse, Li Mu could not help but shiver.The Ancient Emperor"s corpse"s entire body trembled non-stop. It did not directly attack Li Mu, but rather rushed to the blood colored altar, wanting to approach the pitch black Yin Acupoint. However, before it could approach, a black light exploded out from the bowl-sized black hole, causing it to retreat.
The Ancient Emperor"s corpse was not willing to give up and continued to rush forward several times. However, every single time, it would be blown away by the black hole"s black light."You lowly ant, what did you do?"
The Ancient Emperor"s corpse stared at Li Mu and roared, its state extremely unstable, the Spirit Qi on its body fluctuating between strong and weak, the golden light in its body also became dimmer and dimmer.
"I really didn"t do anything. You"re so amazing, what can I do to you!"Li Mu forced himself to stand up, although he had lost his right arm and the injuries on his body were not light, he was fortunate that his body was strong enough and that the Great Brahma Art was effective on his injuries, although his fighting strength was greatly reduced, it did not affect his movements.
"You"re just a junior, you actually discovered the abnormality of my Yin Corpse Nurturing Array, and now this kind of thing is happening. If it"s not you, then who else could it be?"
In that short period of time, his face that was originally half human form had changed a lot. The other half of his face was quickly withering and corrupting, looking extremely sinister and terrifying."Even if I did something to the Yin Acupoint in the altar, it wouldn"t touch you. Who knows if you were the one who practiced the Corpse Tao technique and received retribution."
Although Li Mu was secretly anxious, on the surface, he did not reveal any of it, as if it was none of his business.
"You … "Ahhh!"
The Ancient Emperor"s corpse screamed, the Spirit Qi on its body weakened, its body started to deteriorate, and very quickly, it turned into a carrion beast, the golden dragon robe on its body also became tattered, revealing some of the rotting meat within, it was extremely disgusting.
"My cadaveric pearl … My cadaveric pearl! I will kill you! "
The Ancient Emperor"s corpse wailed in pain, in the end, it bared its fangs and brandished its claws as it charged towards Li Mu."Luan Tian!" If you don"t come out now, I"m dead for sure! "
Li Mu shouted loudly, he activated the river crossing step beneath his feet and increased the distance between him and the Ancient Emperor"s corpse. If it was in the past, he would have already run, but because the heliogram fragment was still in his Yin Meridian, he was unable to leave.
Seeing that Li Mu had not run away, the Ancient Emperor"s corpse became even more suspicious. Its claws moved together, forming a faint golden claw image, and rushed towards Li Mu from all directions.Although Li Mu was fast, it was difficult to activate them from all directions. Seeing that the claw shadow had surrounded him, Li Mu clenched his teeth, used his left hand to pull Zhan Qianqiu out, and rushed towards one of the claw marks, wanting to break through the encirclement.
"Ding!"
With an ear-piercing crunch, Li Mu"s figure rushed out from within one of the claw shadows. The golden claw shadows were slashed into two by Zhan Qianqiu, and even though he had broken through the encirclement, he had to pay a heavy price as well, with both of his shoulders bleeding profusely from the claw shadows. If not for his strong physique, it was still unknown whether he could leave two arms behind after facing the sharp claw images.
"I want to see where you can run to!"The Ancient Emperor"s corpse failed to succeed with its attack, it opened its mouth and spat out a golden Qi wave, rushing towards Li Mu to kill him. Li Mu used his river crossing step continuously, walking all around the cave and avoiding all of the fatal attacks.
"If you don"t come out soon, I"ll run!"
After being almost hit by the Ancient Emperor"s corpse"s Qi wave, Li Mu could no longer hold back and roared at the blood-colored altar.
"Boom!"Following Li Mu"s roar, the blood-colored altar suddenly exploded, and a streak of grey light rushed out, arriving in front of Li Mu, it was the heliogram fragment.
"NO!" My cadaveric pearl! "Following the explosion of the altar, the Ancient Emperor"s corpse let out a sorrowful cry and half knelt on the ground.
"Let"s go!"Li Mu did not have time to bother with the Ancient Emperor"s corpse, he rushed towards the closest pa.s.sage and was about to leave, but just as he was about to move, he heard someone shouting.
"Brat, you did well this time. This King received many benefits and gave you a big gift!"
After he finished speaking, the sky-splitting diagram in Li Mu"s hand suddenly flew out and arrived above the box containing the crystal that was taken out by the phoenix robe demon corpse. Li Mu was dumbstruck.After doing all this, the heliogram fragment flew towards Li Mu.
"Spatial storage!"
Li Mu was ecstatic, he knew what the great gift was and immediately caught the sky-splitting diagram that was flying back and threw it into his arms. After a moment of hesitation, he rushed to the unconscious Li Feng, grabbed Li Feng and rushed to the entrance of the pa.s.sage.
The Ancient Emperor"s corpse in the cave did not stop Li Mu from doing everything. It continuously roared, and the rotten aura on its body became stronger and stronger, the True Essence in its body became weaker and weaker, like a young man in his prime."AHH!" I don"t want to accept this, I"m just half a step away! "
The Ancient Emperor"s corpse howled in anger, unwilling to accept this outcome. However, Li Mu was naturally unable to hear it after everything happened in the distance. He pushed her river crossing step to its limit, and transformed into a grey shadow that swam through the pa.s.sageway.
"Move to the left, there"s a pa.s.sage to the ancient tomb!"In the beginning, Li Mu was a little worried that this place would become too complicated and it would be difficult to find an exit in a short amount of time. But after he woke up, it was different, because with the power of his spiritual consciousness, this place was like a living map.
Along the way, Li Mu did not encounter even half a demon corpse. It was unknown whether most of them died in the hands of Chu Yu and the rest, or the few remaining demon corpses all went to chase after Chu Yu.
After half an incense"s time, under the guidance of Huntian, Li Mu finally walked out of the ancient tomb, and returned to the surface of the Azure Cloud Mountain.After exiting the ancient tomb, Li Mu did not dare to stay. He quickly left this place of disaster, and after sprinting for more than five kilometers, he finally stopped under a giant tree.
Li Mu used the Flowers Blossom Point Hand to tap Li Feng"s body a few times before tossing Li Feng to the side. Then, he moved his broken right arm a bit and sat on the ground.
"Luan Tian, what exactly did you do? How did that Ancient Emperor"s corpse become like that, and how did it even mouthed "cadaveric pearl" one after another? If I"m not wrong, he already took out the cadaveric pearl before and was swallowed by him later on, there shouldn"t be any problems."Sitting on the ground, Li Mu activated his Great Brahma Art to heal his injuries and asked.
"Hehehe, that little guy thought that by hiding the real cadaveric pearl in the Yin Meridian, he would not be discovered, but he actually gave this king an advantage." Hehehehe, that little guy thought that by hiding the real cadaveric pearl in the Yin Meridian, he actually gave this king an advantage.
His words were filled with joy, and it seemed that he had indeed gained quite a bit this time.Li Mu heard and suddenly understood: "Oh, so that"s how it is, I was just wondering why it would use cadaveric pearl as an enemy so easily, previously you said that the Yuan Dan of a cultivator at the sacred art realm, the Spirit Demon Beast Core of a level 4 beast, and the cadaveric pearl of a high level demon corpse, under normal circ.u.mstances, would not be taken out easily unless it was absolutely necessary, the Ancient Emperor"s corpse would definitely use the cadaveric pearl from the beginning, it seems that it was not his own."
This time, not only did I absorb all of the Supreme Yin Qi in the Yin Point, I also absorbed all of the other party"s cadaveric pearl into the heliogram fragment and can quickly refine them all. This time, I don"t need to worry about the depletion of my vitality, the heliogram fragment will be able to unleash some of its own abilities.
Just as he finished speaking, an earth-shaking, earth-shaking explosion sounded out from not too far away. Li Mu"s and Huntian"s expressions changed at the same time, something huge must have happened to be able to cause such a huge noise."Luan Tian, what"s going on? The sound seems to be coming from the direction we left from."
Because the mist at the top of the Azure Cloud Mountain was too thick, Li Mu was unable to see anything far away, so he immediately asked Chaotic Sky with his strong Spiritual Sense.
"The tomb has collapsed, if I"m not mistaken, the Ancient Emperor"s corpse self-destructed, and only the power of its self-detonation is able to have such a huge impact, able to destroy the ancient tomb. Ahh, what a pity, it was just half a step away from taking human form and becoming a Spirit Demon corpse, that is an existence on par with Tongxuan realm." Luan Tian sighed.
"Self-destruct!" Even if he lost his cadaveric pearl, he should be able to start from scratch. From what I see, he has only lost half of his cultivation, he shouldn"t need to self-destruct to seek death! "
"In front of him is the Grand Xia Emperor, he sits on an embroidered mountain, he doesn"t love anything, and he willingly entered the path of corpses in order to pursue a great Dao. He would not even hesitate to destroy an entire country, so he can"t possibly be born lightly."Li Mu could not help but say this. Although the other party was a demon corpse, his persistence in the martial way was still worthy of respect and admiration. If it was him, who was the king of a country and yet was willing to enter the path of the dead and become a ghost?
"You think too highly of your path of cultivation. The path of martial arts, fighting against the heavens and seizing the earth, even the path of corpses cannot escape the laws of heaven and earth, it is easier said than done, the cadaveric pearl s are all destroyed by me, without any Yin Qi, it has lost its foundation."
Moreover, he has been cultivating for more than a thousand years. Even if his lifespan is longer than an ordinary person"s, if he did not break through to the Spirit Realm within a hundred years, it would be difficult for him to escape death. After a thousand years of cultivation, he would be completely destroyed.He heaved a sigh of relief, as if he was thinking of himself. He thought of the ruthlessness of the Great Dao. The elation he had felt moments ago had long since faded, replaced by confusion and loneliness.
"Luan Tian, for the rest of my life, I, Li Mu, will definitely spare no effort to help you rebuild your body, and reconstruct your former glory.
felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart as he felt the desolation that filled the sky, and he promised with a resolute expression.
"Mm, I believe in you. I believe that in the future, both of us will emit tens of thousands of rays of light in the cultivation world!"Luan Tian put away the confusion and loneliness in his heart as he smiled and said with complete confidence.
Li Mu laughed, the current genius was the one in his heart, the arrogant, prideful, arrogant and unbridled Great Devil King.
