Chapter 777 Accident
Late at night.

At the summit of Weizhi Peak, at the entrance of a thatched hut.

Several hours passed unnoticed, and Chen Mu awoke from his meditation.

He stared blankly into the empty space, where a faint glow seemed to flicker. It took him a while to refocus and regain his senses.

He habitually summoned the gray stone door and looked at one of the columns.

Lingbao Cardinal Chapter: 1476/10000/Ninth Rank;

"Just one attempt, and I gained over two hundred experience points?"

"Isn't this speed... a bit too fast?" Chen Mu couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

"Are Thousand Lantern City and the Lingbao Cardinal Method such a good match?"

"Hmm... Could it be that the Lingbao Pivot Chapter was originally a secret technique prepared for this kind of grotto-heaven?" Chen Mu's heart stirred, and he suddenly had some guesses.

The Lingbao Cardinal Chapter comes from the Divine Image Cave Heaven of the City God Temple in Luandu County. That cave heaven is inside the divine image and is the dwelling place of the spirits of the gods in the world.

Perhaps the existence of the Lingbao Cardinal Chapter was originally intended to assist living gods in mastering the Divine Image Cave Heaven.

And Thousand Lantern City is also a hidden paradise!
"We discovered it too late!" Chen Mu slapped his thigh and sighed in frustration.

A single cultivation session increased the experience of a ninth-tier spiritual treasure by more than two hundred points. If this were placed in the earlier stages, the speed would only be faster.

If I had done this earlier, I might have already mastered the Lingbao Cardinal Chapter to its limit.

With the assistance of the Perfect Lingbao Cardinal Method, the Yellow Spring Gourd will surely make even greater progress.

After sighing and groaning for a while, Chen Mu finally composed himself.

"There's no point in thinking too much, let's just grind experience first."

Now that the Yellow Springs Gourd is becoming increasingly difficult to refine, he decided to first improve his Spirit Treasure Pivot Technique to accelerate the condensation of the Spirit Treasure Yuan Talisman.

……

The next morning.

Tang Zhimu suddenly went up the mountain.

Upon seeing Chen Mu, he hesitated before speaking, "Someone from Zhaixing Peak came to inform us that we need to pack up the warehouse supplies. I have a feeling..."

It feels like they're about to run away.

What do you mean, "running away"?
This is called a strategic shift!

"I know about this, just do as I say," Chen Mu said irritably.

"Is it because of Luoding Luoduyuan?" Tang Zhimu asked tentatively.

"Not entirely, but more or less," Chen Mu nodded.

After thinking it over, Chen Mu decided to reveal some information. After all, they had known each other for a while, and being mentally prepared would allow him to react promptly if something unexpected happened.

"Luo Ding's previous attack on Chaoyang Peak Forest Map was related to the Mysterious Demon."

"Although they were driven away by Yuandu Academy, the matter is probably not over yet. They have most likely set their sights on Jiufeng Mountain."

"I don't know how the Mysterious Heavenly Demon cultivates, but I guess it also needs a spiritual mountain where the innate earth veins converge."

"Yuandu Academy is making preparations in advance so that they can evacuate quickly if things go wrong."

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhimu's expression changed.

He was surprised, yet not entirely surprised.

The reason I left Tangshan Temple was to escape the chaos caused by demons.

I never expected that even after running to the remote southwest of Yizhou, I would still be affected.

"I'll go arrange manpower and supplies right away." Tang Zhimu no longer hesitated.

"I trust you to handle things." Chen Mu nodded in satisfaction.

Thanks to Tang Zhimu's help, otherwise he would have had to do it himself.

As a Dao soldier of the Yellow Springs Sect, having borrowed the spiritual veins of another's mountain for cultivation, I cannot refrain from doing anything.

He would never abandon his disciples and flee unless absolutely necessary.

If it really comes to the point of no return...

Cough cough, why bring it up when nothing happened?

With these random thoughts in mind, Chen Mu waved Tang Zhimu away and turned back to continue pondering the Lingbao Pivot.

……

Yuan Zhen, the chief of the capital, had made preparations in advance, and Chen Mu thought he would be able to leave Jiufeng Mountain soon.

But the change came so suddenly.

Two nights later, a series of loud noises came from the horizon, and the earth trembled violently.

Suddenly, a protective aura appeared above and below Weizhi Peak.

Inside the thatched hut atop the mountain, Chen Mu scrambled out of bed. With a flash of golden light, he soared into the air and ascended to the mountain peak.

Looking around, I suddenly saw a beam of light shooting into the sky on the northern horizon. Star-Picking Peak?
Chen Mu immediately had a bad feeling.

The two crimson swords transformed into red streaks, hurtling straight north.

With the power of listening, the scenes along the way immediately appeared in his mind.

He discovered that not only Weizhi Peak, but all nine peaks of Jiufeng Mountain were automatically enveloped in protective spiritual light. It was as if nine luminous beads were strung together by an invisible force.

Chen Mu felt increasingly uneasy.

Before long, the Zhu Yu magic sword flew to the core area of ​​Jiufeng Mountain.

From afar, one could see the three peaks of Zhaixing, Wangyue, and Chaoyang flashing with spiritual light, like light bulbs, standing out conspicuously in the darkness.

That was precisely the manifestation of the mountain-protecting laws being fully activated.

Above Zhaixing Peak, a white crane that blots out the sky is circling continuously.

Accompanied by the sharp cry of the crane, streaks of golden lightning shot out from its mouth, continuously bombarding the protective barriers of Zhaixing Peak.

Meanwhile, not far away, outside the Moon Gazing and Sun Rising Peaks, a large number of strangely shaped demons were attacking the mountain's protective spiritual light.

"The Mysterious Demon King?"

"It came so fast!"

"How could it appear so suddenly without warning? What kind of teleportation technique was used?"

Yes.

If someone can break through the limitations between the two realms and descend from the Mysterious Heaven, how could they not know similar methods?

He was frowning as he observed the situation.

A pale blue streak of light flew to the mountaintop, where Tang Zhimu appeared, looking surprised and uncertain: "The Imperial Academy?! This..."

"There are demons attacking the mountain," Chen Mu interrupted the other person's question and told them the truth directly.

"So suddenly?!" Tang Zhimu looked north in alarm, and even from a hundred miles away, he could vaguely see a light flashing there.

"Then what do we do here..."

"We haven't found any trace of demons yet," Chen Mu said, shaking his head.

"Thank goodness..." Tang Zhimu breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"It seems these demons are selective about their locations, knowing that the innate ley lines on Zhaixing Peak are more perfect."

"Otherwise, Wei Zhifeng would probably be doomed right now as well," he said, feigning nonchalance.

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a black dot suddenly appeared on the bright moon in the sky.

The black dot expanded and deformed, transforming into a black-haired ape with three heads, six arms, and as tall as a ten-story building.

Then, he leaped out of the round moonlight and landed with a whoosh, stomping his feet hard on the protective mountain light.

Crack... The protective aura suddenly developed numerous cracks, as if tempered glass had been shattered.

"No way! Is this monkey stupid?!"

"Why come to Weizhi Peak instead of those spiritually rich mountains like Wangyue and Chaoyang?!" Tang Zhimu couldn't help but exclaim in exasperation.

vitality?

Chen Mu, equally puzzled, twitched at the corner of his mouth.

He suddenly thought of the twenty-four pearls he had buried underground.

It was because the pearl attracted the celestial stars that the energy of Weizhi Peak became unusually abundant, which attracted the black ape's attack.
So, is this still my own fault?
Chen Mu turned his head and glared fiercely at Tang Zhimu.

"It's all your fault for jinxing me!"

Tang Zhimu: "..."

Why does it feel like there's a black pot stuck on my head all of a sudden?
"Never mind, I don't blame you." Chen Mu waved his hand magnanimously.

With a thought, the Five Ghosts Moving Mountains were activated, releasing the vengeful spirits. The overwhelming black clouds swirled and condensed, and a gate to hell, more than ten meters high, appeared on the mountainside in the blink of an eye.

"Hurry down the mountain and get your people out of here. This is no place to stay." He began waving his hands to shoo people away.

Tang Zhimu scratched his head, looking at the increasingly fragmented protective mountain spirit light. Without thinking too much, he clasped his hands in gratitude and turned to call for people to escape.

……

Watching Tang Zhimu leave, Chen Mu couldn't help but smile happily.

Compared to the panic of his many disciples, he was quite calm.

He had seen too many similar grand scenes, and even a strange monkey, despite its enormous size, could hardly stir his emotions.

Moreover, his current level of cultivation is far beyond what it used to be, and he is now able to stand firm amidst such chaos.

Chen Mu stood with his hands behind his back, observing the black ape that was silently hammering at the protective mountain spirit light with a relaxed expression.

"Clang clang clang, how come it's making a rhythm?"

"It looks strange, with three heads and six arms. Is it some kind of musical monkey?"
