Emperor of the North

Chapter 274 - Corpsetaker

Li Mu did not reveal himself at this time. It was not because he was afraid of the mutated Named Man, but because he did not want to cause too much trouble.

"This is a typical corpse poison invasion. You might not believe it, but there isn"t a single drop of blood left in his body. The only thing he has is an extremely rich corpse poison!"

"Corpse poison? Could it be another Corpse Monster? Available... But I also haven"t seen a demon corpse. How could he be sucked dry of his blood and become a demon corpse? "

This was not the first time he had come into contact with a demon corpse. Back when he was in Qingyun Town, he had already interacted with this kind of evil scheme.

"What do you know, this time it is not those unpopular demon corpses you met in the Qingyun Town, maybe it really is a King Corpse, maybe even a corpse!"

"But I do not understand how this place could give birth to such a terrifying monster. Just a small amount of corpse qi was able to turn a peak Xiantian realm master into such a demon!"

He muttered to himself in confusion. He couldn"t understand how strange this place was.

After settling the both of them, the Named Man s looked around in a daze. Seeing that there were no living beings around him, he was prepared to leave, but right at this moment, an unexpected situation suddenly happened. Xiao Tian Yin who was originally quietly lying in Li Mu"s arms, suddenly shouted without any warning.

When Xiao Tian screamed out, the Named Man, who was about to leave, suddenly stopped in his tracks. His pale white eyes stared straight at the tree leaves that Li Mu was hiding in, and then, he made a very crazy move.

"Crack!"

As Named Man"s palm struck the tree trunk, a black ray of true essence gushed out of his palm and instantly split the giant tree in two.

"Boom!"

The giant tree that was split into two fell. Li Mu knew that he could no longer hide, so he helplessly sighed. The river crossing step beneath his feet activated as he moved like the wind, his entire body turning into an afterimage.

As Li Mu"s body was exposed, killing intent filled Named Man"s eyes. A sharp fingernail grew out from the tip of his ten fingers, and each of these fingernails were about half a foot long, exuding a faint cold light. It was obvious at a glance that they were not easy to deal with.

At the same time, he spat out a stream of mist that was as black as ink. This black mist was incomparably nimble, as it formed into a lively and long black snake outside of his body, and rushed towards Li Mu together with him. Li Mu was extremely fast.

"Do not get infected by the black fog outside of his body, this is pure corpse poison, with your cultivation level, as long as you touch even a little bit of it, you will be instantly invaded by the corpse poison, at that time even the G.o.ds will not be able to save you!"

"I know. Please help me pay attention to the black fog that might come out from the ground. As for this guy, leave him to me!"

Li Mu spoke out, then clenched his fists and activated Great Desolate Thunder Emperor"s fist.

"Boom!"

The destructive power of thunder-attribute energy was publicly recognized in the cultivation world. Under the display of Li Mu"s Great Desolate Thunder Emperor"s fist, the black snakes outside the Named Man were all smashed into smithereens by lightning bolts, these corpse poison snakes that could not be dodged by ordinary people, didn"t have any effect on Li Mu.

"Bam!"

Claws flew everywhere, and although Named Man had become a living corpse, his reaction speed had not decreased at all. Facing Li Mu"s ferocious attack, he immediately used his claws to meet it, with his sharp 5 nails that were like 5 sharp swords, fiercely blocking Li Mu"s Thunder Fist.

"Boom!"

The might of the Great Desolate Thunder Emperor"s fist had long become completely different after Li Mu had gone into closed door cultivation and tempered it with thunder and lightning. With a single punch, he blasted the other party"s arm into pieces, revealing the eerie white bones within. However, what was strange was that not a single strand of blood had flowed out from the wound on Named Man"s body.

When Li Mu saw that his opponent"s wound actually did not bleed, he was shocked. Although he had heard of it before, he did not expect it to actually be like this.

After one of Named Man"s arms was blown off by Li Mu, he did not reveal a single trace of pain. He coldly glared at Li Mu, and then, his other hand swung out once again, straight towards Li Mu"s head.

"You"re giving me face but not taking it. Since that"s the case, I"ll let you try my Finger of Illusion!"

With a low shout, True Essence surged on Li Mu"s right hand as he pointed at Named Man"s head. Following Li Mu"s finger pointing out, a resplendent white light shot out from his finger, and directly hit Named Man"s head.

With his head frozen, Named Man"s attack on Li Mu immediately stopped.

"Break for me!"

"Mu Xiaozi, be careful! That d.a.m.ned thing is back! "

Just as he finished with the Named Man, before Li Mu could catch his breath, the voice suddenly screamed out in Li Mu"s mind.

The black skull was not big. It was only the size of a washbasin, but it gave off an extremely cold and sinister aura. It gave people a feeling of extreme danger.

As soon as the black skull revealed itself, it transformed into a ghost image, pouncing in front of Li Mu, seemingly wanting to directly rush into his body.

A clear cry of a bird sounded out from within the clothes on Li Mu"s chest. With a flash of yellow light, Xiaotian flew out at a low alt.i.tude, as if he had sensed the strange aura the black skull was emitting. He flapped his wings, and a red and white Spiritual Light rushed out from within his body.

"Xiaotian, well done!"

Seeing that Xiao Tian Long had suddenly helped him hold on to the black skull, Li Mu heaved a sigh of relief. True essence surged from his right palm, immediately activating the palm of great sorrow. The golden buddhist palm carried a resplendent swastika word imprint, and directly held onto the black skull the size of a washbasin.

As the Golden Buddha Palm closed in, the black skull quickly turned into a wisp of light smoke, and then dissipated into the air.

"That was close! d.a.m.n it! I didn"t expect him to have such a trick up his sleeve! I almost accidentally stumbled on something!"

Li Mu muttered to himself with a lingering fear in his heart. If it wasn"t for Laughing Heavens helping him in time, the current him might have become the same as the Named Man, a demon corpse that was like a living corpse.

The meaning was obvious, let Li Mu consider the safety factor more.

"Yeah, I need to hurry and find a place to attack the sacred art"s realm. It"s said that there are some unexpected benefits to a.s.sailing the sacred art"s realm in this Grand Mysterious Realm, which is only secondary. The most important thing is that only after I break through to the sacred art can I better safeguard myself."

Li Mu agreed with Luan Tian"s words. He looked around him, then activated his river crossing step and quickly ran in a certain direction, for the current him, because he knew that this place was inside the Demonic Corpse Forest, he naturally did not dare to stay in this place for a long period of time. After all, there were no rules to the black mist that came out from underground, and even Luan Tian might not be able to discover it in time and remind him.

Following the quick activation of the river crossing step, Li Mu quickly escaped from the place where he had killed Named Man. However, not long after he left, a pitch black coffin suddenly came out from underground.
