Chapter 183 - Picking up food from the tiger"s mouthLi Mu stopped in his tracks when he heard what Huntian said. He looked towards the sky and saw a blue thunderstorm flying towards them at a lightning fast speed.
The blue colored thunderstorm was several kilometers wide and had a might that could swallow mountains and rivers. Everywhere it pa.s.sed, everything below, regardless of whether it was gra.s.s, trees, or rocks, were completely destroyed by the blue colored storm and the power of lightning.
"Oh my G.o.d! If I did not personally see it, I definitely would not have believed that this world would have such power. Are they trying to destroy this world? "
Looking at the blue colored lightning storm that was no more than five kilometers away from him, Li Mu was stunned. To the current Li Mu, this kind of frightening power was beyond what a human could handle."Roar!"
In the distance, Hei Lie and the fire spirit had not finished entangling themselves yet, as they were still in the air together. Hei Lie used both hands to grab onto the two heads of the fire spirit, while the other seven heads of the fire spirit were still tightly biting onto Hei Lie without letting go."Luan Tian!" What should we do? I think we should quickly escape! I don"t want to be sucked in by that blue lightning, when the time comes, there won"t even be any ashes left! "
Looking at the astonishing aura of the blue lightning tornado, Li Mu trembled all over.
"Mu Xiaozi! Do you believe me! "
Just then, the imposing voice of Huntian suddenly resounded in Li Mu"s mind. Li Mu felt the heaviness in Huntian"s words, and forgot to escape for a moment.
"I naturally believe in you. Without you, I would have died countless times already!" Li Mu replied subconsciously. To him, Luan Tian was naturally the person he trusted the most. After all, if there wasn"t the other party, he definitely wouldn"t be able to stand here.
"Good!" Since you believe me, then don"t run. Take advantage of the time when the two demon beasts have no time to take care of themselves, and go and s.n.a.t.c.h the Spirit Nurturing Fruit! "
He roared loudly, urging Li Mu to s.n.a.t.c.h the Spirit Cultivating Fruit."No way!" Aren"t you asking me to die? Even if I get the Spirit Nurturing Fruit, I won"t be able to escape the thunderstorm! " Li Mu hesitated, he did not know if he should listen to what was said or immediately run for his life.
"Stop hesitating! Since you believe me, then listen to me! The path of cultivation is to compete with the heavens and seize the earth. Since you are so hesitant, when will you be able to master your cultivation? When will you be able to rescue your mother and go chase after your father? When will you be able to help me recreate my true body?! " He was no longer as carefree as he used to be, and instead became abnormally serious.
Li Mu was startled by Huntian"s words, but after that, his face turned cold. He activated his river crossing step and rushed towards the Fireplume Nine Spirits Viper"s broken claws, his speed shockingly fast.
"Roar!"
The fire spirit and Hei Lie were still tightly entangled in midair, and both of them could feel the lightning storm that was sweeping towards them. However, neither of them wanted to withdraw their hands.
"Hei Lie! "Why must you continue pestering me? With the arrival of the thunderstorm, could it be that you want to die with me in the midst of the thunderstorm?!" Sensing the terrifying power of the thunderstorm, roars came from the nine heads of the fire spirit."Humph!" Fire Spirit, stop threatening me here, if you take away my Spirit Nurturing Fruit, how can I, Hei Lie, rest in peace? I do not know you, the moment I let go of you, the Spirit Nurturing Fruit will run away, unless you swear on your heart demon that you will not leave my Spirit Nurturing Fruit, or else don"t think of leaving here alive today! Even though Lei Bao is terrifying, it is not a big problem for me to rely on this body to escape. Hei Lie laughed coldly, refusing to let go no matter what.
"If you can withstand it, do you think I won"t be able to hold on? I just think that we two would be lucky enough to get the Spirit Enhancing Fruit if we keep sticking to it. Why don"t we go somewhere else and have another fight? " Huo Ling anxiously suggested, but these words were obviously lacking in confidence.
"Hahaha, physical body is not a domain that your fire spirit is good at. You dare say that you can withstand Lei Bao"s attack? Do you think that I, Hei Lie, am a three year old child! I"ll be wasting my time with you today! "
Hei Lie laughed out loud. Not only was he not afraid of Lei Bao, he even seemed to be looking forward to it. In just a short moment of time, the distant Lei Bao was already less than a kilometer away from them.
"Hei Lie! You are ruthless! However, don"t be too happy too early. I will risk two heads for today, but after you have endured the thunderstorm, let"s see how I will deal with you! "Humph!"
She gritted her teeth, and the two heads that were held tightly by Hei Lie exploded with a loud bang. With only seven heads remaining, she gave Hei Lie a fierce glare, and then, with a flap of her wings, she transformed into a fiery red stream of light that quickly flew towards the horizon. Before she left, she did not forget to take a look at her severed claws and Spirit Nurturing Fruit.
As the Fire Spirit withdrew his hand, Hei Lie quickly grabbed at the Spirit Nurturing Fruit, his face filled with excitement.
However, just as Hei Lie extended his hand out to grab the Spirit Nurturing Fruit, a strange scene appeared. Beside the gigantic claw with the nine spirits, a yellow light flashed and a person appeared out of nowhere.
This scene was witnessed by the nine spirits and Hei Lie. Without waiting for the two of them to react, the person who suddenly appeared once again used the Earth Escape Technique to escape into the ground, this person was naturally Li Mu who was hiding next to the Pei-Ling Fruit while being cut off by the Great Heaven Spiritual Awareness. All of this happened extremely slowly, but in just a few breaths of time, it was all completed so quickly that even Hei Lie, who was closer to him, could not react at all.
"Get the h.e.l.l out here!"
Hei Lie was furious to the extreme. The gigantic rod in his hand smashed down fiercely towards the ground where Li Mu had disappeared, immediately producing a loud explosion sound. A crack several kilometers long appeared on the ground, toppling all of the soil and soil in the area where Li Mu had disappeared.
He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, his entire body feeling extremely uncomfortable, but he knew that he could not stop, if he did, he would have to stay here forever, and he endured his own injuries, releasing her river crossing step to its limit, transforming into a ray of light and rushing behind him."Human junior!" "How dare you scheme against me!"
The Black Wind Ape let out a loud roar, and a ring of black origin energy sound wave rushed in the direction Li Mu had escaped in, causing all the rocks and trees on the mountain to fly backwards. Li Mu revolved his Heavenly Demon Nine Transformations at full speed, and even used his battle demon body.
"Buzz!"
The void shook, and circles of substantial origin energy sound waves struck Li Mu"s body. The golden buddha silhouette outside Li Mu"s body instantly shattered, and countless cracks also appeared on the broken armor on his body. He was sent flying by the strong sound waves of origin energy, and his body uncontrollably swayed in the air.Li Mu"s body released an unbearable pain, which made both of his eyes bulge out of pain. He felt that his body was about to shatter and he was shrouded in the shadow of death.
Just when the Black Wind Ape and the fire spirit both thought that Li Mu, this low level human pract.i.tioner, would die without a trace or sound on the spot, a gray light flashed on Li Mu"s body and at the same time, accompanied by a faint spatial fluctuation, Li Mu"s figure disappeared into thin air, as if he had never appeared.
"Spatial fluctuations … this is impossible!" "Roar!"
But at this moment, Lei Bao had already arrived in front of Hei Lie. Under the pull of a gust of wind, Hei Lie"s enormous figure was swept away by the blue colored lightning storm that shrouded a few kilometers away.
Lei Bao"s movement speed was extremely fast, more than several times faster than Li Mu"s river crossing step. Under the crazy baptism of wind and lightning, the mountain rocks and earth on the ground were all swept up by the thunderstorm, a destructive aura filled the world.
The fire spirit was indeed worthy of being a bird type demon beast. She continuously flapped her wings, turning into a fiery red stream of light and disappearing in the blink of an eye, leaving Lei Bao far behind …"What is this place?"
Li Mu opened his eyes once again. Five days had already pa.s.sed, his entire body was powerless as he looked around at the gloomy scene, he felt as though he had entered the underworld.
"You are currently in the sky-splitting diagram."
Luan Tian"s voice came out from all over the s.p.a.ce around Li Mu. He seemed to be somewhat weak, and even the essence energy and spirit he spoke with was much weaker.
"sky-splitting diagram? I entered the sky-splitting diagram? How was this possible? I remember that day when I was struck by the sound wave coming from the Black Wind Ape, I should have died, right? Why did we enter the sky-splitting diagram again? "
Li Mu forced himself to stand up. Looking around, he realized that he was currently in a grey-colored s.p.a.ce, and the grey-colored s.p.a.ce was extremely wide, to the point where he didn"t even know how much width it was. The s.p.a.ce was completely dark and unpredictable, yet, Li Mu wasn"t able to feel the slightest bit of vitality within it.
"Originally, you should have died, but I said that I would help you at the critical moment, how could I break my promise? At the critical time, I brought you into this heliogram fragment, which could save your life, otherwise, even if you were to die under the Black Wind Ape"s attack, you wouldn"t be able to escape from Lei Bao"s demonic claws." Luan Tian explained."I thought I was dead for sure this time. Luckily you were here, and this is the inside of the sky-splitting diagram. I didn"t think that there would be such an independent s.p.a.ce. But why can"t I feel the existence of Essence?"
Li Mu used his own Spiritual Sense to scan his surroundings, and asked with some confusion."The sky-splitting diagram is a supreme treasure. Although this is just a fragment of mine, it isn"t strange for it to exist in a separate s.p.a.ce. As for why there isn"t any vitality, it"s because the sky-splitting diagram has shattered, and even the powerful artifact spirit within has disappeared.
With a long sigh, Luan Tian helplessly explained to Li Mu.
