Chapter 897 Monitoring, Slaughter

"Evolution of Heaven..."

Although Chu Mu was badly injured, he seemed unaware of it and was still staring at the small wooden sculpture.

A trace of the divine spirit of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Beast...

The sacred beast of heaven!!
After so many years on the path to immortality, he has now reached the pinnacle of the world of immortal cultivation.

He was naturally very clear that what the immortal cultivators cultivated was only the word "truth"!

If you do not cultivate the truth, it is like going to a mountain of treasures and returning empty-handed. No matter how powerful you are, sooner or later you will be devoured by the power itself.

No matter how strange or mysterious something is that is beyond our cognition, it is absolutely impossible to explain it in the true sense.

The only reason is that it is beyond cognition.

Once his cognitive understanding improves, it will be a natural progression.

Looking at the current world of immortal cultivation, what he is most curious about is the evolution of the sky.

It spans three races: humans, demons, and monsters; there are countless subdivided cultivation systems and countless bloodline differences, but it can change at will without revealing the slightest flaw.

It even blended together an unprecedented race of demons and subdivided them into countless demon bloodlines.

And this is just the mysterious extension of the evolution of heaven.

The real main body is still suppressed in the ruins of the Heavenly Palace.

It took a long time for Chu Mu to wake up from his crazy desire to explore.

"No wonder..."

He let out a long breath, seeming somewhat relieved.

The collapse of the secret realm before was completely beyond his expectations.

After all, if the leader of the Changsheng Sect had decided to collapse the secret realm from the beginning, he obviously would not have allowed so many core disciples of the Changsheng Sect below the fourth level to enter the secret realm.

The secret realm collapsed, and although the demons suffered heavy losses, the losses of the Changsheng Sect were obviously greater.

Every disciple of the Changsheng Sect who entered the secret realm was a genius picked from thousands of miles away, and the backbone of the Changsheng Sect's inheritance. However, most of them were annihilated in the horror of the world's collapse.

If it had not been for such a heavy blow, even with the demonic catastrophe sweeping across, the Changsheng Sect would not be in such a state of decline today.

The only explanation is that something must have happened along the way that he was unaware of.

If one senses the traces of the evolution of heaven, then everything will obviously make sense.

A wisp of the divine spirit of the Heavenly Evolution Holy Beast, and the method of identifying demons that determines the fate of the Changsheng Sect...

Given the situation at the time, there was no room for the Changsheng Sect Master to hesitate.

A variety of coincidences led to the collapse of the secret world, resulting in a tragic situation in which almost everyone died.

This has directly led to the current embarrassing situation of a lack of successors within the Changsheng Sect and the presence of a powerful enemy.

"With good fortune comes misfortune..."

Chu Mu sighed softly.

If there hadn't been such a catastrophe, the Changsheng Sect might have found it difficult to detect the core clues of the demon.

If we continue to allow the demons to hide in the dark, the disaster will undoubtedly be even more terrifying.

Such a situation can be regarded as the early detonation of a monstrous disaster that was supposed to continue to lurk.

The world of immortal cultivation is vast, and even though the Tiannan immortal cultivation world is boundless and vast, it is ultimately just a corner of the place.

Chu Mu calmed his mind, moved his fingertips slightly, and the floating wooden sculpture was pulled in front of him again.

This time, he did not try to be brave again.

Although it was only a trace of spiritual energy, it was obviously beyond the limit of power he could bear.

If you try to peek forcibly, you will only be met with backlash from its instincts.

There is a long time to come, it’s not too late to think about it slowly.

"Ok?"

At this moment, Chu Mu seemed to have thought of something, his expression was slightly stunned, and the next moment, Chu Mu disappeared in the cave.

In the Qiankun bag, Chu Mu stared at the demonic body of the Wang family ancestor that he had cut open, but no matter how hard he looked, he could not see the mysterious wonders of nature that were shrouded in mist on the wooden sculpture.

It was as if this was just an ordinary demon body, without any abnormality.

But if he remembered correctly, the ancestor of the Wang family back then was also a demon, and his demon body also mutated...

In other words, the body of the Wang family's ancestor must also possess some mysterious power derived from heaven.

only……

Did he ignore it, or didn't he notice it?
Or maybe, the evolution of heaven in the Wang family ancestor has transformed into other mysteries?
Thinking of this, Chu Mu's expression suddenly became gloomy.

The evolution of heaven, into humans, into monsters, into demons, into demons...

That turned into a demon in the heart... tampering with the memory...

It shouldn’t be that difficult, right?

or……

Transformed into a poisonous insect?

What does He want?
Chu Mu frowned and thought for a long time, but just like before, there was no clear answer and it was still full of mystery.

After a long time, Chu Mu came out of the Qiankun bag and stood in the cave again. He raised his hand and the Supreme Talisman floated in front of him. As his mind moved, the projection of the mountain reappeared.

As the projections flow, the Yanyun Mountains, the northern desert sea, and even the Changsheng Mountain Gate...

The terrain of most of the northern border also appeared clearly before our eyes.

On top of this projection of the terrain, two tiny sculpture shadows were visible flickering. With these two sculptures as the core, circles of ripples spread out, forming two huge circles, covering a huge area in the northern border.

These two wooden sculptures are naturally the other two strands of Tianyan’s divine soul aura, located respectively at the gate of Changsheng Mountain and the front battlefield.

And the wooden sculpture in his hand...

His gaze shifted, and finally rested on the Yanyun Mountains simulated by the projection.

Just south of the eastern side of the Yanyun Mountains are the Changsheng Mountain Gate and the front-line battlefield.

The most suitable location for this wood sculpture in the Yanyun Mountains is none other than the several spiritual cities on the east side of the Yanyun Mountains.

In this way, a situation of three points and one line can be barely formed, from the front battlefield, to the Changsheng Mountain Gate, and then to the Yanyun Mountains, a demon identification area that is millions of miles long and hundreds of thousands of miles wide.

"Forget it, let's just go to Jizhou City..."

Chu Mu shook his head and finally rejected the idea.

The grandeur of Yanyun lies in the top of Yanyun in Jizhou City. The spiritual veins of Yanyun are like a dragon, and the top of Yanyun is also the hub where the spiritual veins intersect and converge.

At the foot of Jizhou City, there is a peak spiritual vein of the fourth grade upper quality.

Although other spiritual cities in Yanyun are also located in the core of spiritual veins, they are far inferior to Jizhou.

The immortal civilization in the world of cultivating immortals is based on spiritual energy, an energy source that perfectly fits the immortal system.

Everything is built around this spiritual energy source. The importance of the spiritual vein is self-evident, not to mention that it is a top-grade fourth-order spiritual vein!

The next moment, Chu Mu moved his body and crossed the limitations of space, appearing in front of the giant coiled dragon column in the center of the city.

The Panlong Pillar is nearly a hundred feet high, flawlessly white, and surrounded by dragon shapes, displaying its majesty.

Every few breaths, this giant coiled dragon cylinder would release an invisible wave in all directions, detecting all spiritual energy fluctuations within a radius of nearly a million miles.

Corresponding to the countless reconnaissance puppets and monitoring arrays, it forms a detection and locking system that can almost be described as a dragnet.

There are three such Panlong columns in the Yanyun Mountains.

The east, the middle, and the west. Yanyun is divided into three parts. Each section of the vast mountain range has such a majestic Panlong Pillar. In the end, these three Panlong Pillars are used as the core to build that magnificent system.

"In this case, we need to make some improvements..."

Looking at this coiled dragon pillar, Chu Mu was thinking secretly.

Even with the amplification of the Panlong Pillar, the detection range of this wooden sculpture is only a few hundred thousand miles.

It is undoubtedly far from the spiritual energy detection range of the Panlong Pillar.

Furthermore, the detection methods of these two are obviously not part of a system.

If two completely different existences have no intersection, it is absolutely impossible for them to fit together and be amplified.

Perhaps it was due to the tense situation, or perhaps it was because of the previous drastic changes in the secret realm, the high-level monks of the Changsheng Sect suffered heavy losses, and the inheritance was almost cut off.

High-level weapon refiners and formation masters are scarce, and the Changsheng Sect’s improved methods for this are not sophisticated at all, and can even be said to be extremely simple and crude.

Simplicity naturally has its advantages, but for him, if he wants to continue to peek into the mystery of Tianyan in the future, he naturally cannot blend it so simply and crudely.

After a little thought, a rough plan emerged in Chu Mu's mind. After pondering for a moment, Chu Mu jumped up and was hanging in the air. With a touch of his finger, a ray of spiritual light sank into the Panlong stone pillar.

The Panlong stone pillar, which had been emitting detection waves in all directions every few breaths, trembled violently, and the white fluorescence it emitted all over its body suddenly dimmed.

Chu Mu used his fingers as a pen to outline on the stone pillar. The densely packed inscriptions on the formation also changed as he outlined.

Every change is like the finishing touch, causing the already silent stone pillars to ripple with a little fluorescence.

This sketching lasted for nearly three days before it finally stopped.

At this moment, the Panlong Stone Pillar has changed greatly in appearance.

The originally white stone pillars now have a dark and deep color, almost the same as the wood carvings.

The dragon sculptures that originally surrounded the stone pillars turned into strange-looking monsters one after another.

The aura of the immortals had undoubtedly disappeared, and a thick aura of evil and chaos rose into the sky along with the stone pillars, and had apparently caused some celestial phenomena.

The sky was filled with wind and snow, and it was even more gloomy and dark.

Chu Mu's expression was calm. He looked down and the endless mountains were all within his sight. His mind moved slightly and the Supreme Talisman on his waist vibrated slightly, connecting the entire Yanyun order.

At this moment, the vast Yanyun clouds, like a majestic system of the order of heaven and earth, were within Chu Mu's control in one thought.

It only took Chu Mu a few breaths of perception for his eyes to become determined. He raised his hand and pushed, and the floating wooden sculpture in front of him slowly moved towards the stone pillar that seemed to contain all the ominous things in the world.

There is no gap in the stone pillar, but it does not hinder its perfect integration with the wood sculpture.

When the two were completely integrated, the rolling true demonic energy that had been hidden suddenly burst out completely. Looking around, it looked like a column of demonic light rising into the sky from the center of Jizhou City.

When it reached the sky, the column of demonic light that was rising into the sky seemed to be restrained by an invisible powerful force, and its momentum suddenly stopped.

The next moment, the light column shattered with a loud bang, and the bursting demonic energy evolved into countless demon forms, which fled in all directions.

But in just a moment, the towering demon stone pillars transformed into countless densely packed tiny chains. Each chain soared into the sky, binding the countless demon phantoms that had evolved.
The stone pillar trembled, and every time a chain was retracted, a shadow of a demon sank into the demon carvings on the stone pillar.

As the shadows of demons were imprisoned one after another, every demon carved on this demon stone pillar seemed to come alive.

Struggling and roaring, as if unwilling to be restrained and suppressed...

"Humph!"

Chu Mu snorted coldly, raised his hand and pressed down with a palm. Within a radius of dozens of feet, the space of heaven and earth trembled violently. No matter whether it was the struggling and roaring demons on the stone pillars, or the phantoms of demons that were still fleeing, at this moment, they all froze suddenly.

The next moment, the chain extended, and all the fleeing demon shadows were put into the stone pillar.

The stone pillar was towering, and although the demon carvings all over it were lifelike, there was no sign of the struggle and roar from before. Apart from that hint of agility, there was nothing unusual at all.

Chu Mu let out a long sigh, feeling relieved.

Only then did he look at the Supreme Talisman floating in front of him. With his mind's perception, the order system that seemed like the authority of heaven and earth was already extremely clear.

Compared with the past, this demonic stone pillar is undoubtedly the biggest difference.

Of course, some other differences may be caused by the voice transmission decree three days ago.

With just one order, the entire Yanyun Mountains were stirred up.

All the foundation-building and golden elixir cultivators of the Changsheng Sect stationed in Yanyun gathered in the central part of the Yanyun Mountains in response to this summons.

By now, most of them have arrived at the Zhongling City camp in central Yanyun.

And these spiritual city camps are all within the detection range of this demon stone pillar.

They are all within the scope of that magnificent order...

"let's start……"

Chu Mu murmured softly, raised his hand and gently stroked the stone pillar. As his fingertips brushed over it, the demon stone pillar, which was originally dull in color, gradually lit up with some dark demonic light.

When the entire demon stone pillar was completely revived, just like the previous Panlong stone pillar, after a few breaths, an invisible detection wave spread out in all directions with this demon stone pillar as the center.

In the dark, Chu Mu seemed to have heard the roars of countless demons, but this hearing lasted only for a moment and then disappeared without a trace.

Chu Mu leapt up to the cloud and stood there, looking down. The invisible detection wave was like ripples on the water, one wave after another, passing through rocks, trees, city walls and formations. No matter whether it was an illusory or real object, it could not hinder this wave in the slightest.

After staring for a moment, Chu Mu rolled up his sleeves, and the projection of the mountain range appeared in front of him again.

At this moment, the invisible detection waves were also reflected on the projection of the mountain. If the ripples spread like ripples, densely packed tiny black dot marks would also appear on the projection of the mountain as the ripples spread.

Each symbol represents a demon.

Some of these demons have already revealed their demonic forms, while others are still lurking among humans without restraint...

But as long as they are within the range of detection fluctuations, without exception, they will all be marked on the projection of the mountain range.

Chu Mu frowned slightly, raised his hand and the projection of the mountain changed, and countless white spots of light were added.

Each spot of light represents a casual cultivator who has registered in any of the spiritual city camps in Yanyun, or is a disciple of the Changsheng Sect.

At this moment, on the projection of the mountain range, the black and white signs overlapped countless times...

What this overlap of logos means is self-evident.

"Demon slayer..."

Chu Mu murmured softly, and just two words came out, but it seemed like the arrival of a supreme will.

At this moment, this majestic system covering the entire Yanyun Mountains also began to move.

Countless arrays of different sizes all burst forth completely, and the war puppets that had been following fixed procedures all burst forth with might...

There were cultivators walking on the streets and moving forward in the mountains, but pillars of light fell from the sky and blew them into ashes in an instant. There were also war puppets forming formations, roaring coldly "Kill the demons", mechanically waving long swords, killing one "cultivator" after another who were still stunned.

Some monks panicked and fled in all directions, only to find that the sudden killing seemed to be targeting only some monks?

The roar of the war puppet that soared into the sky seemed to be... slaying demons?
At this moment, no one can explain what is right or wrong.

But as the sudden carnage continued, no explanation seemed necessary.

After all, the demons that can hide among humans also have the intelligence and desires that humans should have...

Under such a slaughter that was clearly aimed at the demons, the demons would naturally be terrified, would have a desire to survive, and would understand the situation.

Of course, they can't just sit there and wait for death.

It was as if the scene was replayed. In the camps of the spiritual cities, one demon after another shed their human bodies and transformed into hideous monsters.

But this time, things are different after all.

In this fully operational vast web of heaven and earth, even if several Nascent Soul demons were present, they would be unable to change the destined outcome.

Under this precise detection, an emotionless mechanical massacre has completely begun...
