Chapter 825 Poor Giant Demons
“Huh?” It was the first ti that Li Mu had heard of such a thing.
Then everything beca even more interesting.
“It was no wonder that those arrogant god descendants gathered on Mount Tianxuan to block the traitorous devils. Actually, they were there most likely to fight for the key to the Pantheon that might be brought back by the six major clans.”
“Back then, the key was smashed and divided into six parts, which were held by the six clans respectively. Now we are all gathered here. Although there are many people, in fact, only the top masters at Upper King Realm can control the situation. Only soone as powerful as Cloud Light Saintess can defeat the traitorous devils. The other ordinary cultivators are just assistants.”
The Immortal Taoist pointed to the sky and said, “Look carefully. Can you see what happened to the Gate of the Ancestors?”
Li Mu looked up and he was stunned.
The huge vortex begun to split into six smaller pieces at so point in ti.
Six small space channels with a diater of about 100 ters gradually appeared.
“Every space passage represents a traitorous devil. The key to the Pantheon is also the key to breaking the formation. It’s impossible to break the tactical deploynt formation of galaxy without the key. Therefore, we need six experts at the sa level as Cloud Light Saintess to guard the six passages. We should intercept and kill those invaders and get the key. Otherwise, if any fragnt is missing, we will not be able to piece them together to form a complete set. At that ti, the Pantheon will never be opened. Endless troubles will erge if traitorous devils enter the Pantheon.”
Athanasia Taoist Child said with a solemn look.
An idea flashed across Li Mu’s mind. He suddenly understood the reason why the little Taoist talked so much.
“So, did you want to guard one of the six passages and seize the fragnts when you asked to join you?” Li Mu asked, a little surprised.
The Immortal Taoist child answered, “Exactly, you’re right.”
Li Mu was confused. “You think so highly of .”
“You’re the owner of a forbidden weapon, the God-killing Broadsword. You’re the most qualified because your weapon is lethal to traitorous devils,” Athanasia Taoist child explained. “If the future leader of the Tingyu Clan ca as planned, we would not have to bother you. But for so reason, the opening of the gate is imminent, yet the Tingyu’s future leader has not shown up yet, and we can’t get in touch with him.”
Li Mu realized that he was actually a substitute.
However, it was not that bad.
He also cordially detested the six major clans.
The aim of coming here this ti was to block the six major clans.
“I have a question.” Li Mu said, “if I kill a demon and get one of the six key fragnts, who will it belong to?”
The little Taoist lowered his head and thought for a mont, then said, “Well, according to the previous agreent, whoever gets the fragnt will get to keep it. That is to say, he will get a chance to enter Pantheon to search for treasures, when the vault of gods’ treasures is opened. Therefore, in theory, it belongs to you.”
“Theoretically?” Li Mu smiled and asked, “Then who will it belong to in fact?”
“Actually...” The little Taoist looked embarrassed and finally said with a smile, “It would be good if you can hold on to the fragnt using your own strength. But if you can’t... Well, I suggest that you can exchange it for sothing of equal value.”
His words were euphemistic, but in fact, the aning was obvious.
Li Mu was already very surprised to hear such words from him.
“Deal.” Li Mu agreed without hesitation.
No matter what the result would be, it would be a win-win transaction.
“By the way, except for Cloud Light Saintess, who are the rest of the first-choice candidates who will block the traitorous devils?” What happened today was really beyond Li Mu’s expectation.
The battle with Cloud Light Saintess made Li Mu aware of her strength, which surprised him.
According to Immortal Taoist, in addition to the Tingyu’s future leader, who was late for so unknown reason, at least four god descendants at the sa level as Cloud Light Saintess had co. They ford a group and ca to Mount Tianxuan to fight against the six traitorous clans.
Li Mu was very curious about who they were.
The little Taoist child said, “They are Young Master Leizang, future leader of Thunder Clan; Fairy Shuiyue, future leader of Fog Clan; Young Master Wuxing, future leader of Wind Clan, and Yin Jiuyou, Young Master of Ghost Clan. However, none of them ca to the Sword Competition Square. So it’s a pity that I can’t introduce you to them.”
Li Mu asked, “So, is Cloud Light Saintess the future leader of Cloud Clan?”
The little Taoist child smiled and said, “You’re really smart and sharp. That’s right. That year, the Dark Yellow Deity Clan built Pantheon, the Celestial Court. Its subordinates included six clans: Wind, Rain, Thunder, Cloud, Ghost, Hidden, as well as four sects: Chunyang, Hunyuan, Shenxiu, and Shanyang. Well... Forget it. The people who ca here today are mbers of the six clans. The other Pantheon mbers will not show up for the ti being. You may see them in the future. My junior fellow apprentice, Immortal Taoist, and I are also candidates to fight against six traitorous devils.”
Li Mu morized those nas in his heart.
Dark Yellow Deity Clan established a force called the Pantheon Celestial Court. The six clans and four sects were a portion of it. As one of the six divisions, the future leader of Cloud Clan had been so formidable. It could be imagined how powerful the Pantheon used to be.
“Brother Li, since you’ve agreed, then it’s settled.”
Athanasia Taoist Child gave him so words of advice repeatedly and the matter was settled.
Most of the spectators had already dispersed from the Sword Competition Square.
At first, everyone thought today would be Li Mu’s death day.
What happened today seed like an opera show. Divine Alliance of the Five Great Mountains had set up the stage, but Elder Jian only sang two lines before the stage was smashed. Even the strong Cloud Light Saintess only sang half of her part. The stage was ruined by Li Mu in the end.
Li Mu’s performance had left a deep impression on them.
Both the God-killing Broadsword and Li Mu’s own power showed great potential, which overturned many cultivators’ impression of mortals. When they left, most of them were still talking about Li Mu’s performance.
However, since Li Mu had provoked such a “big shot” as Cloud Light Saintess, he suddenly changed from being a popular icon to a jinx. So no one dared to talk to him openly for the mont.
As they spoke, servants from Thunder Clan ca to invite Athanasia Taoist Child, and said that future leaders of the other four clans had already gathered.
“Brother Li, please go back to your camp and have a rest first. In about four or six hours, the battlefield of the six passageways will open. At that ti, I will ask my junior fellow apprentice Immortal Taoist to invite you. Please ensure that you are well prepared ... Junior brother, see Brother Li off for .”
Athanasia Taoist Child cupped his hands courteously before leaving with the attendant from Thunder Clan.
His junior fellow apprentice, Immortal Taoist, escorted Li Mu out of the square.
“Brother Li, my brother likes to focus on the overall situation. He makes many calculations and plans before each action. Sotis, he doesn’t care too much about the feelings of others, so you don’t have to pay attention to what happened before.”
The Immortal Taoist said.
“Never mind.” Li Mu said.
The immortal Taoist then said, “Cloud Light Saintess is a vengeful and wild woman, who will seek revenge for the smallest grievance. Be careful. She will definitely play dirty tricks on you.”
Li Mu glanced at him in surprise, smiled slightly, and said, “Taoist priest, your words are profound in our shallow friendship.”
The young and handso Immortal Taoist smiled and said, “To be honest, I appreciate you very much.”
Li Mu grinned and said, “Thanks a lot.”
“By the way, many people might be interested in your sword, including that woman Cloud Light Saintess. So, you should be more careful. No matter what price others might offer, never give up your sword. Its value exceeds your imagination.”
The Immortal Taoist leaned over and whispered.
Li Mu asked with great interest, “How much is it worth on earth?”
He was very curious about the origin and significance of his sword at the mont.
“You don’t know?” The Immortal Taoist said, “Well, it’s a long story. But it’s not appropriate to say too much today. You’ll know when the ti is right.” Speaking of that, he thought of sothing and said with a smile, “By the way, if you really want to sell it, I’ll be the first to buy it.”
“Okay.” Li Mu nodded.
Astonishnt crossed the Immortal Taoist’s face. He smiled and left.
Watching his leave, Li Mu was left with a much better impression of the Immortal Taoist.
“This Taoist is quite an interesting fellow.”
He ca to the campsite of Hero Country amidst the gazes of many along the way.
The battle was over.
In the camp, the stupid Husky was riding a black-striped fierce tiger and evidently enjoying the feeling of being a tiger rider.
The giant tiger was two ters tall and more than ten ters long, if you include its tail. It was surrounded by a demon aura, which made it look very majestic. At first glance, one could tell that it was a big demon with ample cultivation. But now it was being ridden by a fat and stupid Husky, which made it look like an object of disgrace all of a sudden.
What was more ridiculous was the tiger’s fawning expression. It didn’t boast the dignity as a beast king at all and could be said to be even more ignoble than a pug.
“Hey? Li Mu, you’re back? Look at my mount. It’s very obedient. And I nad it ‘Rotten’. What do you think?” As soon as the stupid dog saw Li Mu coming back, it imdiately showed off its achievents to Li Mu.
“As long as you’re happy.”
Li Mu mourned for the tiger in his heart.
“Is it called a negative encounter?”
Ouyang Fu, principal of the base, hurriedly ca to Li Mu and reported the situation of the battle. Five or six of comrades were injured but still alive. As for the demon cultivators who launched a sneak attack, except for the last few who managed to escape, the rest were killed. They owed the success of the battle to these fierce old n. They almost knocked down all the demon cultivators by using the Type 81 Assault Rifles, whose montum was hard to restrain.
“Hey hey, Little Mu, you’re back? These little goblins can’t stand being beaten.”
Old Zhang was gutting a black sheep that had been beaten to death, with a knife and its original form was revealed. It seed that he was going to roast the whole sheep.
On the other side, Li Mu saw many beast skins, including leopard skins, cowhide, mink skins... They were extrely smooth. He could tell that they were premium furs, which hung on the temporarily erected wooden stakes, and a bloody sll perated the place.
“Ha Ha, I never hunted such good ga in the mountains before.”
“We can sell these exquisite skins for a high price later.”
“You’re shortsighted. Get a leather suit for your tigress to make her happy. I promise that she’ll not restrain you from cigarettes, alcohol, or Mahjong...”
The old n were in high spirits, just like a group of hunters who returned from a successful hunt.
Big demons were stripped of their original forms one by one, hung on iron hooks and their stomachs had been slit. They were about to be cooked. There was no difference between this scenario and the slaughtering of a pig during the New Year. Seeing the scene, Li Mu was speechless for the mont.
These demonic cultivators... were truly pitiful.
Li Mu focused on the Type 81 Assault Rifles of the old n.
“Is it a magic implent?”
“It’s not a common weapon.”
