“Open the barrier,” Chu Mu told Dragon Maiden at his side.
“No! If they harm Heaven Palace......” said Dragon Maiden.
“Have you forgotten what Human Mother told you??” said Chu Mu.
Dragon Maiden gritted her teeth. She walked to the edge of the wheel platform and started chanting an incantation.
Unlocking the barrier was actually very complicated. Dragon Maiden took a long time to completely remove the barrier.
After the barrier was gone, Dragon Maiden still stared at Yellow Spring Emperor and Hades Fox G.o.d cautiously.
Meanwhile, Hades Fox G.o.d and Yellow Spring Emperor simply ignored Dragon Maiden and looked towards the other execution ground.
Heaven Palace was still trembling and shaking violently. It could be seen that Underworld Demon Lord’s rage had reached a peak.
Underworld Demon Lord had a short fuse in the first place, and there was also Inferno Ghost Lord which had a similar temper next to it. Once they struggled free, they would definitely attack Heaven Palace.
Meanwhile, the other three Undying rank were probably provoked in the same way. Soon, these Undying rank would be attacking Heaven Palace.
“Leave those two lunatics alone. Let’s do what we need to do,” said Hades Fox G.o.d.
Chu Mu nodded and spoke, “We need to confirm one matter at Heaven Demon’s nest.”
“Oh, that big demon, I also want to meet it,” Yellow Spring Emperor seemed rather interested.
Dragon Maiden’s expression changed slightly. Only she knew how terrifying Heaven Demon Ancestor’s strength was. Even a few Undying rank working together might not be able to take it on.
Furthermore, there were countless demons in Heaven Demon’s nest. Barging into there was suicidal.
Heaven Palace organized subjugations, but ended up in total defeat.
......
Below the wheel platform, w.a.n.g Jiang coldly watched Chu Mu and the other Undying rank leave.
Currently, a tightly wrapped man walked over and took a glance at w.a.n.g Jiang, “What happened?”
“They escaped!” said w.a.n.g Jiang with his head lowered.
“Towards which direction?” asked the man.
“It seems to be......” w.a.n.g Jiang pointed outside the city.
The man pondered for a moment and sneered, “Acting independently like this is no good. Since they won’t comply, then finish them off.”
After saying so, the man took another glance at w.a.n.g Jiang, “Continue to provoke other Undying rank. You don’t need me to teach you how, right?”
“No...... No,” answered w.a.n.g Jiang hurriedly.
......
Heaven Demon’s nest was inside this wheel-shaped continent. They disliked light and heat, only the dark cold cave was their favorite.
Chu Mu clearly remembered that beneath the bottomless abyss was actually a demon nest. There were various plants growing inside and countless unknown creatures resided there.
Chu Mu brought the three Undying rank towards this abyss.
Meandering cliff wall and endless darkness, there would always be some unknown existence wriggling at the bottom of the darkness.
Waves of chills surged out from the abyss, blowing past their bodies. They could only smell death and rot.
Chu Mu took the lead and flew down from the cliff. A crimson flame ray shot straight downwards, diving deeper and deeper into the abyss.
Yellow Spring Emperor followed right behind Chu Mu. Its enormous body exuded an intimidating aura.
Meanwhile, Hades Fox G.o.d still stood on Yellow Spring Emperor’s back. It had completely treated Yellow Spring Emperor as its mount and seemed like it was natural.
Dragon Maiden was at the last. She trembled when she smelled that stench. Every time she fought in Heaven Demon’s nest, she would smell this stench. It was the smell of her companions" blood mixed with demons’ fluid. The scenes of her companions dying would keep replaying in her mind.
......
The cliff was very deep, like a blackhole connecting to another world.
When Chu Mu landed, his flame was unable to brighten the surroundings, as the air was filled with darkness and toxin.
Chu Mu slightly frowned.
When Yu Suo jumped into here, only Evil Good Flower family and those Flower Demons were here.
However, the surroundings vines had rotted now. Heaven Demon’s excretions could be seen everywhere. This stench was suffocating.
As Chu Mu turned his gaze towards the cliff wall, he noticed many big holes on the wall.
Stench and chills surged out from those caves. The Heaven Demons probably hid inside there. Especially when Crimson Sol was s.h.i.+ning above the sky, they did not dare to come out for the moment.
“Why is here also......” Dragon Maiden looked at the surroundings in shock.
“If not, how did Yu Qie get surrounded by those Heaven Demons back then?” said Chu Mu.
There was a plain of black soil land behind Heaven Palace. Beyond the black soil was this abyss.
In the past, countless Heaven Demons swarmed out from here, surrounding Yu Qie and Yu Suo. Even Heaven Demon Ancestor appeared and heavily wounded Totem Divine Maiden Yu Qie.
Although no more Heaven Demon appeared on this land afterwards, it was clear that those Heaven Demons used a certain method to connect their nest and this cliff.
The black soil and rock around Heaven Palace had always been meteors and were extremely solid. Normally speaking, it would be impossible to drill through. Hence, when Dragon Maiden saw so many underground pa.s.sage, she was astonished.
“Where do these lead to?” asked Yellow Spring Emperor.
“Should be towards Heaven Demon’s nest...... Of course, pa.s.sing through a place along the way,” said Chu Mu.
After they ventured into the cave, the direction the cave extended towards was also the direction they came from.
As they continued walking forward, Dragon Maiden realized that these caves did not curve or turn much, they seemed to be pointing towards one direction.
The more she walked, the more shocked she was. She already noticed that if they walked a bit further, they would be directly under Heaven City!
“Ssssss~!” Suddenly, a strange sound rang out in the area in front, as if something was rapidly hissing.
Dragon Maiden could not be any more familiar with this sound. It was the noise Heaven Demons made after a full meal!
The sounds overlapped and became clearer. They could tell that a large number of Heaven Demons gathered in the cave opening ahead!
However......
However, if they head forward a little more, it would be Heaven City above them!
Dragon Maiden had never imagined so many Heaven Demons gathered below Heaven City and Heaven Palace! Furthermore, they might be eating Heaven City’s citizens right now!
As the group continued walking forward, a large clearing appeared in front of the cave.
Vile stench made even the air feel viscous. Pairs of eyes glowed in the dark cave.
Chu Mu lit up a cl.u.s.ter of crimson flame and casually threw towards the center of the clearing!
Huhuhuhu~! The light from the flame spread out and revealed countless horrifying creatures in the darkness!
Green and ugly faces, exposed fangs, lumpy membrane wings and sharp claws. Countless of these things were revealed by the flame’s light!
The flame only lit up a small area. It was easy to imagine what the rest of the area was filled with!
The countless glittering eyes focused on Chu Mu’s group in an instant. They stretched out their tongues and saliva dripped down like rain.
Dragon Maiden drew a sharp breath behind Chu Mu, her face immediately paled!
There were at least over 30,000 Heaven Demons in this clearing!
Furthermore, this place was below Heaven City. In other words, if they drilled through the soil directly, these 30,000 man-eating monsters would appear inside Heaven City!
“So the bugs have already filled the stomach. The glamorous Heaven Palace on the surface is really beyond cure,” said Hades Fox G.o.d slowly.
Yellow Spring Emperor nodded.
There was a nest of the natural predator right below one’s own city. What else could be more horrifying?
If not for personally witnessing this, Dragon Maiden would never believe such a horrifying fact.
What were those guardians on patrol doing? Why had they not discovered Heaven Demons gathering here?
What were the decision makers doing? Why were they allowing Heaven Demons to reproduce such a large population?
At first, Dragon Maiden was unable to believe that Heaven Palace would really fall into destruction, because there were too many experts in Heaven Palace.
However, after seeing such an astonis.h.i.+ng scene, she had no choice but to believe.
This could only happen if the patrols in Heaven Palace slacked off. These Heaven Demons could only reproduce to such a horrifying number if those decision makers kept compromising.
It was their offerings that fed so many Heaven Demons!
The funny thing was that they even forced Yu Suo and Yu Qie who tried to change everything to death......
Could such a Heaven Palace really be saved?
Right now, Dragon Maiden even started to suspect whether the Heaven Palace she saw was still the same Heaven Palace in the past. Whether those decision makers wearing human skin were still real people. Perhaps, beneath the human skin, they had the greedy face of a Heaven Demon!
“They seem to be trying to block us?” Yellow Spring Emperor slowly walked into this clearing.
Facing so many Heaven Demons, this Undying Legend never showed any fear.
“Don’t waste too much time here, we need to go deeper,” said Chu Mu in a serious tone.
“Leave these things to me. I haven’t exercised for a long time,” said Yellow Spring Emperor.
After that, Yellow Spring Emperor enlarged its body again. It flew at the front and furious water dragons cl.u.s.tered around its body.
Those Heaven Demons were blasted away into meat jam on the solid stone walls wherever those water dragons glided past!
