Chapter 139: Another Master In The Human Race
Li Mu chased after him.
The purple lightning in the sky hid behind the dark clouds all the way from the desert to the mainland.
From time to time, a black shadow dropped from the sky.
Wherever they went, it was followed by a pressure in the air.
But it would recede swiftly.
Many families woke up and stared at the sky.
They were witnessing a scene that they would never forget in their lives.
The Bat Clan, which was usually at the top of the food chain among, was fleeing.
And their “prey” was chasing them.
It was as if a mouse was running after a group of cats.
“Oh my G.o.d! It’s a bat. Someone is chasing after the Bat Clan.”
“Look, another bat fell from the sky.”
“Someone is chasing after the Bat Clan!”
“Who is chasing after the Bat Clan?”
…
Dark clouds pa.s.sed over a city.
Many Virtual Realm masters in the city looked up in the sky and their expression changed drastically.
Many of them were gloating.
“So the person chasing the Bat Clan is a human. My G.o.d, we’re in for a good show.”
“The Bat Clan has been fighting against the humans for so many years. Finally, there is a True Realm master from the human race that is able to defeat them.”
“Wasn’t the True Realm master of the human race killed by the Four Heavenly Kings of the Bat Clan?” someone wondered.
“This is probably the fifth True Realm master of the human race!”
“There are always many hidden masters in the human race. They will only come out as a last resort.”
“More importantly, they must appear at the critical moment. I’m afraid that the Bat Clan might do something wicked again.”
“It’s good that the Bat Clan drew them out! Now, we know not to attack them in the future.”
In the air, Li Mu slashed his sword and watched as ten bats turned into puddles of black blood.
Thunder and lightning pa.s.sed by and the blood was burned dry.
It was no exaggeration to describe the death of the Bat Clan as extremely tragic.
“Checking in!”
“Congratulations to the host for checking in at Baimuling. You are awarded with sixty years of power.”
Along the way, Li Mu didn’t forget to sign in as he killed the Bat Clan members.
Although the checking-in rewards were not significant, they started to acc.u.mulate over time.
“Sure enough, there is a problem with the Bat Clan’s brains. They all chose to escape together in a group!”
At the edge of the desert…
Zhou Tian and the others rushed back to Zhou Family’s house, and then returned to the desert to bring back the members of the Zhou Family who had fled to the desert.
Zhou Tian and the others didn’t dare to look at the damage caused to the Zhou Family’s house.
After cleaning up for many days, the Zhou Family buried those who had died.
Then, the Zhou Family members who were still in shock gathered around Zhou Tian and the others.
“Have you found the Xu Family?”
“Where is Zhou Qing? Why haven’t they come back? Are they staying at the Xu Family’s house!”
“And who is that senior? Is he from the Xu Family?”
…
Only after the elder calmed everyone down did the Zhou family members gradually back off.
The elder looked at them and frowned. “Come with me!”
Zhou Tian and the others looked at each other, then followed the elder into the cabin.
The other Zhou family members surrounded the outside of the wooden cabin.
“What happened?”
Inside the cabin, the elder slowly sat down.
Less than a third of the elders remained.
The other elders were all injured.
Zhou Tian and the others looked at the elder with strange expressions on their faces.
“Tell me!”
“Elder… I…”
“Did you not complete the task?” the elder said angrily.
Zhou Yun stood up. “Elder, please let us explain.”
Two hours later, everyone in the Zhou Family finally understood what had happened.
There was silence in the cabin.
Phew!
After a long while, everyone inside and outside the cabin let out a sigh of relief.
“If it’s really a senior from the human race, we can rest easy now!”
“Everyone can take a break. Then, we will prepare to move back!” The elder seemed to be much more relaxed now.
The tension and sorrow over the last few days disappeared and was replaced with joy.
The Zhou Family was happy that the catastrophe would soon pa.s.s.
“Elder, then we…”
“We will be depending on you to find a new place for our family. Remember, choose a place rich with prenatal qi. The human race can finally breathe a sigh of relief.” The elder instructed them.
“Elder, why is this?”
The elder smiled. “Because the senior you met is a True Realm master. Now that our human race has another True Realm master, we are much stronger than before.”
As if the True Realm master was from their Zhou Family.
An elder who was missing an arm walked up to Zhou Tian and the others and patted their shoulders lightly. “Go do your work now! You were lucky to have met such a master.”
Zhou Chen scratched his head and said, “Elder, we didn’t complete our mission. Aren’t you punis.h.i.+ng us?”
“Your mission has been completed!”
“What?”
“The Zhou family’s problem has been resolved.”
One by one, the elders left the cabin.
Zhou Tian pulled Zhou Chen away.
“Brother Tian…”
“Don’t ask any further. The elders already know it in their hearts.”
Half a month later, the Zhou Family moved back.
Many other families observed them.
But no one dared to attack them.
“Elder, I heard that the True Realm master seems to be crazy. He is chasing the Bat Clan everywhere.”
“That’s good!” The elder nodded, his smile brightening.
“Elder, there are rumors spreading that this True Realm master belongs to our Zhou Family. Should we respond?”
“There’s no need to respond yet!” The elder waved his hand confidently.
He already knew this a long time ago.
After news broke out that the Bat Clan was killed, the world was shaken.
All the masters in the mainland started investigating this matter.
They quickly found out about the Zhou Family.
As for why the Zhou Family had a True Realm master?
It didn’t matter!
The important thing was that this True Realm master was from the Zhou Family.
The Zhou Family’s status in the mainland was instantly elevated.
In a cave of the Bat Clan, lightning flashed and all bats in the cave instantly disappeared.
“How disgusting!”
Coming out of the cave, Li Mu continued to hunt them down.
Only by killing these beasts would the humans be safe.
Soon after leaving the cave, Li Mu continued to chase after the bats.
One day later, a familiar m.u.f.fled noise came from his body.
Click!
He had broken through the bottleneck and finally reached the second level of the True Realm!
The golden true liquid in his body became more viscous.
His divine consciousness could now be used in a ten mile radius.
As long as a bat was within ten miles, and they were not of the True Realm, he could strangle them in an instant.
“It’s so powerful!”
Li Mu only stopped chasing them after half a year pa.s.sed.
He returned to the edge of the desert, then flew back towards the middle of the desert.
He had been checking in for half a year, but the acc.u.mulated rewards weren’t even comparable to what he received during the three days of checking in at the ancient battlefield.
“It’s time to sort through the rewards I got in the past six months.”
…
Inside a cave, a red figure roared angrily.
“Master, the Four Heavenly Kings have become entangled with the masters of the human race. There is really no one in the Bat Clan who is a match for this True Realm master of the human race!”
“Isn’t it just a True Realm prey? Do I have to handle this myself? Useless. You are all useless.”
“Master, this True Realm master already mastered the thunder and lightning techniques when he was in the Virtual Realm and managed to suppress the Bat Clan. That was how Jun Fang and the others were killed.”
“Hmph! Now, people all over the continent are laughing at our Bat Clan.”
The red figure paced back and forth.
“Master, please calm down!”
“Calm down? Gan Yu, find him for me. I will meet with this new human master in person. How can we be suppressed by our prey?”
“Master, if you take action, what should we do if the Anaconda Clan attacks us?”
“Idiot. Don’t tell them where I am!”
…
In the center of the ancient battlefield, Li Mu was sorting out the rewards from his breakthroughs.
After two consecutive breakthroughs, Li Mu was feeling rather anxious.
He had tried to break through many times before, but had always failed.
And when he had no intentions of breaking through, he broke through continuously while he was immersed in fighting.
Of course, he had acc.u.mulated many years of power.
There must be a reason he wasn’t aware of.
He really wanted to find a place to sort through his rewards..
But after killing so many bats, there was no place for him to settle down in this unfamiliar continent.
He hadn’t just come back here to check in.
