Lingyuan Immortal

Chapter 831: Millions of Black Clouds and Silver Thunder

The clouds passed by in the sky, and the darkness was completely silent.

In just a moment, Chen Mu destroyed the Nascent Soul Demon Cultivator's body with one hand.

Because this place was the virtual cave, the Demonic Sky Alliance did not put too much energy into it. So now that Huo Chen had escaped, Chen Mu looked around and saw that there were only some low-level demon cultivators acting as formation flags in the virtual cave.

When they saw Chen Mu looking at them, dozens of low-level demon cultivators turned pale and dared not move.

"This... Senior, we are waiting..."

Before he finished speaking, Chen Mu waved his sleeves, and waves rose under his feet. Suddenly, the water surged, circling around the group of demon cultivators, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The sky and earth were suddenly as clear as a mirror, with only the pitch-black devil pillar still standing. Demonic energy was spreading around it, and it looked like a bottomless abyss.

Chen Mu jumped up and walked around it, and found that although this place was a virtual cave, he could still feel a strange aura that did not belong to this world.

After concentrating and sensing for a moment, he didn't waste any more time. He stretched out his hand, took out a Jade Purity Token and threw it into the air. Then, with a burst of magic power, he was about to activate the token and break the momentum of the virtual cave.

But at this moment, a blood-red light suddenly appeared from the sky.

Chen Mu paused, looked up, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

But under the escaping light was a blood-red Nascent Soul. Who else could it be but Huo Chen who had just escaped?

He had a sudden thought, thinking that something must be wrong, so he did not act rashly.

Seeing his calm demeanor, Huo Chen was furious. He steadied himself and yelled, "Don't be so arrogant, you idiot! You dare to ruin our alliance's plans. Today is the day you die!"

His behavior now is completely different from before, even a fool can see that something is wrong.

Chen Mu ignored him, just glanced at him and looked into the distant sky with a frown.

After just a few breaths, a mysterious light flashed between the clouds and a figure emerged. His figure was tall and straight, like a pine or cypress, but his appearance was cold and gentle, with a sinister look in his eyes. He looked like a vulture that would devour people's flesh and blood at any time.

Chen Mu narrowed his eyes and sensed a powerful aura in the person in front of him. The pressure he felt was far greater than what Huo Chen had just felt.

He was sizing up the other person, and wasn't the other person also sizing up him?
Looking at the figure in front of him whom he had only heard of from others, a hint of vigilance seemed to appear in the sinister man's eyes.

He reached out to stop Huo Chen from shouting, and forced a sneer on his stiff face, saying, "I've heard of Chen Shangzhen's reputation for a long time. Seeing him today, I can see that his reputation is well-deserved."

Chen Mu remained calm and asked, "Who are you?"

The sinister man twitched his lips and replied, "My name is Sima Chenghong. I wonder if Chen Shangzhen has heard anything about this?"

As soon as the words fell, Chen Mu's eyes narrowed and he thought to himself, "It turned out to be him..."

Sima Chenghong, ranked tenth on the Taixuan list, has pushed his cultivation to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. Although it was achieved through extreme means and his foundation is unstable, he can still be considered to be at the peak after all, and is much more powerful than the average late-stage cultivator.

The reason why he became famous was because of the battle at Cuizhu Gate that year.

With his own strength, he actually managed to hold back the three direct disciples of Qingmu Xianweng.

You know, those three people are all in the middle and late stages of the Nascent Soul Realm, and because their skills come from the same source, their power increases when they join forces.

Even so, he couldn't gain any advantage over him.

Since then, Sima Chenghong's name has been spread among the Taoist tradition, and he even climbed to the eighth place on the Taixuan List.

It's just that he hasn't made any moves in recent years, and was surpassed by Tao Xianxu and Li Jianyi one after another, and his ranking dropped to the bottom of the top ten.

But in terms of real combat power, I'm afraid he is not inferior to Tao and Li at all.

For someone of such strength to come to a cave in Beiyuan at this very moment, his purpose is certainly intriguing...

Chen Mu said calmly: "It turns out to be the Sima envoy of the Demonic Heaven Alliance."

Sima Chenghong chuckled and said, "I am here on the orders of the Alliance Sect to stop Chen Shangzhen."

"Although I boast of my skills, I may not be able to defeat Shang Zhen. Shang Zhen, how about this? If you are willing to wait here for a day, I am willing to offer you a precious treasure. This way, we can avoid a fight. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

Hearing this, Chen Mu sneered.

As the Supreme Palace Master of the Black and White Taoist Palace, and the number one person under the God of Transformation in Beiyuan, why would he care about a mere treasure of the other party?
I'm afraid even the other party doesn't have much hope in this statement, it's just a way to delay time.

Right now, the top priority is to dispel this void, and everything else can be put aside.

So he didn't bother to get into any verbal arguments with Sima Chenghong. His body glowed, and he pointed his fingers, and the Jade Purity Order suddenly emitted a dazzling light.

Sima Chenghong's face darkened and he snorted coldly, "Why is Chen Shangzhen so anxious?"

He stomped his foot, and suddenly a strange blood light appeared. It flashed slightly and went above the Yuqing Order, covering the pure air it released.

He continued to move, waving his sleeves to create a gray smoke trailing behind the blood light, and his speed was not at all slower.

Chen Mu glanced back and took another look at the disturbed Yuqing Order. He felt that if he didn't get rid of the other party, it would take several times or even dozens of times more effort to dispel the magic cave.

But this was something he didn't want to see.

Thinking of this, he directed his mind and two jade-like rays of light shot out from his eyes. Suddenly, they merged into one, turning into a white rainbow that flew straight towards the opponent to kill him.

Unexpectedly, Sima Chenghong was not panicked. He shouted and a sea of ​​blood appeared under his feet. Another turbid light was released and collided with the white rainbow. In an instant, they collided dozens of times.

Chen Mu remained calm, but his mind was moved.

The white rainbow suddenly split into eight and attacked the opponent all over his body.

Sima Chenghong laughed heartily, and eight turbid rays of light flew out from the sea of ​​blood under his feet, heading towards him separately. Suddenly, bursts of clanging sounds were heard in the air.

Suddenly, the white rainbow split up again, and spread out into more than a hundred rays at once, as powerful as a flying star that could kill all life. It seemed that in the next moment, everything that stood in its way would be silently annihilated.

However, what was surprising was that the sea of ​​blood under Sima Chenghong's feet surged, and the same number of turbid rays flew out from it, blocking all the incoming white rainbows without any error.

Sima Chenghong sneered when he saw this, and the worries in his heart also subsided.

The sea of ​​blood beneath his feet was created by his fundamental magic power. As long as he has enough energy, the sea of ​​blood beneath his feet will never dry up.

That was why he was able to single-handedly hold back three mid-to-late stage cultivators in the Cuizhu Gate battle and become famous in one battle.

However, he also knew that his advantage was that he could fight a protracted war, but his disadvantage was that he was not very flexible. If the opponent ignored him and just ran away, or fought while walking, then he would be restricted because he needed to maintain the sea of ​​blood under his feet at all times, and his advantage would be lost.

Therefore, if you want to stop Chen Mu here, you still need other means to force him in the end.

Thinking of this, he pulled out a small sword about an inch long from his sleeve. There were black and purple blood stains on the sword, which smelled extremely fishy.

"go with!"

Sima Chenghong shouted softly, and the small sword suddenly flew out, flashing black light in the air. Chen Mu was so experienced in fighting that when he saw his opponent suddenly change his tactics when he was in an advantageous position, he already guessed about half of the reason.

His eyes flickered, and he decisively dodged the small sword, seemingly rushing towards the sky.

Sima Chenghong was stunned when he saw this, and then his expression changed, becoming extremely complicated in an instant.

There was both shock at Chen Mu's quick reaction and shame and anger at his own exposure.

The strong winds above the sky are so fierce that they are not comparable to those here.

If I let Chen Mu go up, even if I can keep up, the mana consumed to maintain the sea of ​​blood under my feet will be several times greater. What is the advantage then?

Sima Chenghong's mind raced, and in an instant he understood the situation on the field.

We can’t let Chen Mu move forward and backward freely!

He shouted loudly, raised his sleeve and threw out a jade seal, then made a gesture of magic.

In an instant, the area within a radius of a hundred miles was immediately enveloped by a layer of obscure demonic light. The skylight and strong wind disappeared, and it suddenly became silent, with only strange shadows trembling endlessly.

Upon seeing this, Chen Mu quickly suppressed his escape light, glanced around, and judged in his heart: "Looking at the signs here, it seems a bit like the technique of locking the heaven and earth..."

Look at the area within a hundred miles, it is all suppressed and imprisoned by the jade seal.

An idea came into his mind, and he flicked his finger, sending out a beam of light that rushed straight towards the jade seal.

But before it got close, there was a puff sound, and the strong light seemed to rush into the void and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

He looked around again, but there was no sign of the other person in his sight. He must be hiding somewhere, trying to delay time.

However, this area is not big, so we can force it out.

Chen Mu's magic power turned, and golden light rose behind him. Amidst the chirping of birds, he had the power to lock the heaven and earth. He focused his mind and observed silently for a moment, but he still could not sense Sima Chenghong's figure.

His eyes flashed. Since this method didn't work, he decided to try another one.

He suddenly stepped forward with a heavy stomp, and heard a loud boom. A huge wave arose from under his feet, and in an instant it rushed out and spread out mightily. In a short while, it had spread over a hundred miles and reached the end of the horizon.

Then the water could not overflow, and immediately rolled back, rising continuously. The waves rose higher and higher, as if they were about to submerge the entire world in one fell swoop.

Sima Chenghong was hiding in the sea of ​​clouds. When he saw the water light moving around him, he knew that Chen Mu had already made a move. If he did not stop it, he would be exposed.

His eyes rolled around, and he reached out to grab a ray of eye-catching red light from the sea of ​​blood. He squeezed it in his palm, then threw it downwards with an expressionless face.

This red light is the accumulation of foul air in the sea of ​​blood over the years. As long as it comes into contact with the pure and spiritual air, it will pollute it.

As soon as it entered the water, the overwhelming force was immediately suppressed, the waves subsided, and it looked as if it had turned into a mirror-like blood lake, which could no longer surge. Moreover, the surrounding spiritual energy was still being gradually eroded, and it was getting wider and wider.

But Chen Mu seemed to be oblivious. He stared into the distance for a moment, then suddenly turned his head to look towards a certain place.

Sima Chenghong's action of spitting out blood and energy just now was very slight, but it still revealed a trace of aura. It was easy to avoid ordinary cultivators, but it was difficult to escape his eyes.

After taking a look, he jumped up and flew towards that place.

Sima Chenghong was suddenly shocked. He had not expected that Chen Mu would not be able to find him, but he did not expect it to be so fast.

In a panic, he suddenly mobilized all his magic power, and the sea of ​​blood under his feet suddenly made a gurgling sound and splashed countless blood bubbles, as if something was about to dive out of it.

In an instant, two dull thunders were heard, and two figures rushed out from the sea of ​​blood. Each of them was seven or eight feet tall, with raised lips and collapsed noses, exposed fangs, and ferocious looks. They were actually some special demons, and had already begun to take on bloody bodies.

Chen Mu didn't know the depth of the demon in front of him, and didn't want to rush forward rashly, so he turned his escape light and tried to bypass it.

However, at this moment, Sima Chenghong suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed, and the rolling demonic energy rushed over.

At the same time, the two blood-bodied demons moved together and rushed towards Chen Mu.

Chen Mu only felt that there was demonic energy surrounding him, and there was a binding force trapping him. His escaping light couldn't help but stagnate, and his forward momentum was also stopped.

Just like that, one of the bloody demons rushed in front of him, and then swung his arms and smashed down!
Chen Mu sneered coldly, and the vital energy in his body suddenly burst out. He broke free with one hand, lifted it upwards, and actually caught the falling demon.

Then he swung his sleeves, and the demon was immediately blown away by a huge force, collided with another demon, and rolled into a ball.

After the fourth turn of strength, even if he did not use the Law of Heaven and Earth, he could still use all his strength.

If the powerful demon from the demon world came, he might be able to compete with him, but these two blood-bodied demons are still a little short of their level.

After doing this, he didn't even look at it anymore. He shook his body, broke free from the restraints of the devil's breath, and went straight to Sima Chenghong.

Sima Chenghong was shocked to see that the bloody demon he summoned was like a naughty child in Chen Mu's hands and posed no threat at all.

The difference between the two on the list was clearly only two or three digits, but why... was the gap so huge?!

The pressure that Chen Mu alone puts on him right now is far greater than that of the three direct disciples of Qingmu Xianweng!
He didn't understand, but he didn't bother to look for it anymore.

Looking at Chen Mu rushing towards him, he had no choice but to take out another magic treasure and use it to protect himself. Then he fully unleashed the sea of ​​blood under his feet, and immediately hundreds of turbid rays of light rushed out.

And this is already the limit for the Tenth Taixuan, the top demon envoy of the Demonic Heaven Alliance...

Seeing this, Chen Mu laughed out loud and calmly performed a magic trick.

In an instant, dark clouds and black fog gathered from all directions, the sun and moon were extinguished, the sky and the earth were dark, and millions of dark ink clouds separated and covered the sky. In each cloud, there was thundering silver electricity flowing and flashing continuously.

He stood in the air, raised his fluttering robe sleeves and dropped them down. The mighty thunder tore through the restraints and burst down unrestrainedly.

At this moment, it seemed as if thousands of mountains fell from the sky!

But in a moment, the layer of blood light dimmed.

After another three or four breaths, the spiritual treasure also made a crisp sound, and the protective light dissipated with a mournful sound.

Sima Chenghong was unwilling to be killed, so he took out several protective treasures to cover himself, and at the same time hoped that the two blood-bodied demons would come back to rescue him.

But under this thunderstorm, he could only hold out for a few more breaths. After his last protective magic weapon was broken, countless silver dragons blasted down, smashing him to pieces on the spot...

Huo Chen's eyes widened, his mind being distracted again and again.

It was not until a cold gaze fell on him that he suddenly shuddered, forced a smile that was uglier than crying, and wanted to plead with Chen Mu.

Chen Mu didn't wait any longer, and took advantage of the situation to draw another lightning bolt, which immediately shattered him to pieces...
