Chapter 397: Escape

Rumble~

Lightning struck his body.

Li Mu moaned pa.s.sionately as if he were wrapped in a comfortable blanket.

He scanned his surroundings.

Gulp

He let out a few bubbles.

However, the bubbles burst under the pressure of the seawater.

“Oh? Am I out now?”

Wasn’t I in the Demon Tower?”

While he surveyed his surroundings with his divine sense, another bolt of lightning struck.

h.e.l.l no!

I definitely am not inside the Demon Tower.

The lightning inside the Demon Tower was not that powerful, nor were there such powerful heavenly fire.

I was kicked out.

Haha ~

Here I was intending to break out of the Demon Tower after I had reached emperor-level.

Alas, he did not expect to be kicked out just like that.

Did they think that he could not withstand the lightning tribulation, or did they figure out that he would be unbeatable and reign supreme upon reaching emperor-level?

Kacha ~

Another bolt of lightning exploded within and out of Li Mu’s body.

Li Mu did not take it seriously.

What troubled him were the Fire and Wind tribulations.

Until now, most of the heavenly tribulations had been blocked by the Demon Tower. Moreover, neither did the lightning tribulation not hurt Li Mu, nor help advance his powers to another level.

He wasn’t heavily injured by the third tribulation, so it was much easier for him to resist the remaining two tribulations with his full strength.

Li Mu did not stay idle. He summoned many jade slips from thin air and sent the tribulations into these jade slips, in a bid to trap them.

Eh?

The Dragon Clan’s emperor-level experts were stunned from the moment Li Mu was ejected from the Demon Tower.

He really was a human.

A human trapped in the Demon Tower?

The Demon Tower was similarly flabbergasted/

It seemed that the Lightning Tribulation did not have any effect on Li Mu.

What surprised the Demon Tower more was what happened next.

The Lightning Tribulation flashed five times and disappeared. The remaining fire and wind tribulations were also captured and sent into the jade slips.

The remaining tribulations retreated.

The tribulation ended.

The heavens shone with affirmation, and Li Mu officially stepped into the emperor level.

The Demon Tower was anxious.

It spent nearly half a day fending off all the heavenly tribulations.

So p.i.s.sed off!

The remaining heavenly tribulation was not being taken seriously. In its anger, he started to tremble in fury.

On one hand, releasing the human placed everyone at a disadvantage. On the other hand, if he remained, the Demon Tower would have to continue s.h.i.+elding the heavenly tribulation.

It was a real s.h.i.+t mess, between a stone and a hard place.

What happened next made him even angrier

The Dragon Clan emperor-level expert stared at the human and did not show intention to attack.

It was not that he did not want to, but that he did not know how to attack.

Facing the same emperor-level expert, he had no confidence in taking him down.

If he could not take him down, what was the point of making a move?

After offending an emperor-level expert, how could the Dragon Clan survive in the future?

“It’s time to speak to the Human.”

The Dragon Clan Emperor-level expert pondered for a long time and decided to talk to Li Mu.

They had achieved a lot. If they could not talk, they would talk about other things.

Seeing the dragon emperor-level expert running toward Li Mu happily, the Demon Tower started to tremble again.

If it could talk at this moment, it would probably curse the Dragon Clan ancestors.

After Li Mu transcended the tribulation, his divine sense scanned the area.

He saw the Golden Dragon approaching him with a smile on its face. He was stunned for a moment and engaged the Heaven Ascension Steps. With one step, he traveled thousands of miles and with two steps, he was already out of the Dragon Clan’s territory.

Escape

This Dragon Clan emperor-level expert’s smile was too terrifying.

After stepping out of the core region of the Dragon Clan, Li Mu’s footsteps did not stop.

That Dragon Clan expert definitely had a plan.

If that was the case, why was he smiling so happily?

“I’m just a person who has just stepped into the emperor-level. In the eyes of the Dragon Clan emperor-level experts, I’m afraid that I’m a huge tonic!”

For many years, the Monster Clan had been eating humans for sport.

The Dragon Clan was no exception.

More importantly, I am a human.

Humans are the sworn enemies of the Monster Clan. How could this emperor-level warrior not know that?

“In their eyes, I am food delivered to their doorstep. Sigh, that d.a.m.n Demon Tower. If I had the chance, I will take care of him.”

He brought himself to the Dragon Clan.

It was obvious that he wanted to use the power of the Dragon Clan to kill me.

Fortunately, he got a piece of Dragon essence at the critical moment. Fortunately, he made the breakthrough.

Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After the breakthrough, he had scared away the other semi-G.o.d realm warriors of the Dragon Clan.

Only one overlord realm warrior wanted to catch him.

Then, Li Mu flew out of the core region as quickly as a bolt of lightning.

At the same time, the Demon Tower flew out of the Dragon clan and pounced on Li Mu.

Two beams of light chased and fled on the endless sea.

Soon, the Overlord Realm Warriors of the Dragon Clan flew out and chased after the two beams of light.

In the sky above the endless sea.

Li Mu scanned his surroundings.

The surrounding fog was thick, and at the end of his soul consciousness was still the sea. It was boundless, and he couldn’t distinguish the sky from the earth, nor could he distinguish the east, west, south, and north.

“Sigh.”

He let out a long sigh and chose a direction to continue moving.

He would leave this place first.

No matter where he was, he couldn’t stay in the Dragon Clan’s core area.

After flying for some time, his soul consciousness still had the sea.

“As expected of the endless sea, it’s boundless.”

The Endless Sea was too big.

Moreover, Li Mu didn’t have the experience of living in the sea, so he couldn’t distinguish directions in the sea.

The compa.s.s in his hand was the same as when he entered the ancient battlefield, but it all failed.

“Where exactly is this place?”

There was such a mysterious place in the sea area, but he couldn’t always find it, right?

HM?

After a moment, the compa.s.s returned to normal.

Li Mu let out a sigh of relief.

Even though he was already an emperor-level expert, he was still a little weak in the face of the heavens.

When he used his divine sense to look outside, it was still the vast sea.

Which direction was the land?

After all these years, he had finally gained some understanding of the continent. He didn’t expect that he would be thrown into the sea in the blink of an eye.

He had never known what the situation of the sea was like.

Not to mention that he did not have a map or a sea map, but he did. And now, he did not know where he was?

If he did not even know where he was, how could he know what was around him?

“Sigh, even if I have a sea map now, it is useless. There is no reference object around me. Even if there is a clear reference object, it can not prove that this position is correct.”

The sea was the same as the desert.

The mountains and islands that were exactly they all looked too similar.

Lost

Li Mu was sure that he was lost.

He circled around a few more times, but it was still the sea.

He held the compa.s.s and pointed in a direction. He rushed forward with all his might, but after an unknown amount of time, it was still the sea.

“As expected of the endless sea. It’s even bigger than the ocean of the past.”

There were no islands, so there was only water around.

“I wonder how the ROC Clan and the Dragon Clan got out?”

After thinking about it, he still felt that he could not be compared to the ROC Clan and the Dragon Clan.

Especially in the direction.

Forget it.

If he found a direction and kept flying, he would not believe that he could not get out.

Whoosh

Just as Li Mu disappeared, the shadow of the Demon Tower appeared at the same spot.

It paused for a moment before chasing after Li Mu again.

Not long after it left, the Golden Dragon appeared on the spot.

Boom

Not long after, a low rumbling started to build up.

Swoosh

Then, a fight was neigh.

The blue sky was covered by purple light and the colorful clouds in a distance started to scatter in escape.

“Demon Tower, I have not caused you any trouble and yet you are hot on my heels.”

A loud shout swept across the sky.

The waves came fiercely.

Then, the seawater was summoned into the air.

“The Demon Tower wants to fight with this human?”

The Golden Dragon was stunned.

If he had the help of the Demon Tower, he might be able to take down this human emperor-level expert.

Whoosh

The Golden Dragon changed his mind and rushed to the center of the battlefield.

Into the heart of the battle.

With his palm. Li Mu sent the Demon Tower scrambling backward, before rus.h.i.+ng away in the other direction.

It was impossible for him to shatter an emperor-level weapon that the Demon Tower was, with his current strength. If he was not careful, he might even be seriously hurt by the Demon Tower.

More importantly, the emperor-level old dragon was right behind him.

“I haven’t even consolidated my cultivation yet. If I were to fight with two long-established emperor-level experts, that would be courting death. Run.”

Waving his hand, he slashed behind him. Li Mu did not have the time to determine his position and ran away.

Demon Tower kept chase closely.
