Full-Time Magister: I Had No Intention of Reaching the Dimensional Throne

Chapter 259 Paying Homage to the King, City Lord's Mansion

At this moment, the two imposing tigers were less than fifty meters apart, and with just one step, they could bite through each other's throats!

However, they did not fight, because the old rock tiger that had strolled down from the mountaintop as if to use a battle to mark the end of its life lay down directly in front of the Divine Dust Tiger!

It's just like a subject paying homage to the king in ancient times!

A respectful whimper escaped its lips!

What made their eyes widen even more was that the Divine Dust Tiger raised a paw and gently pressed it on the Beast Soul Rock Tiger's head, which was pressed against the ground, as if crowning it!

"Awooo~~!"

Shenchenhu let out a proud roar, turned his head to look at Bai Mo, his round eyes full of pride, as if to say, "Praise me!"

"Yes, the orange tabby is the best!"

Bai Mo smiled, feeling that although the little guy had grown up, he was still the same as when he was a child.

But Yelena, Jin Fei, and the others only saw its imposing and domineering presence!

This is the true monarch of the mountains!

"Take us in!"

Bai Mo said something to Da Ju, then thought for a moment and nodded to Gao Li and the others, including Jin Fei, "Have this big guy take them over there."

Bai Mo pointed to the foot of the mountain where they had come from.

Jin Fei's face turned ashen, as if his mother had died, but he dared not utter a word. The members of the Korean team also glared at him with resentment.

This guy, he offended others because he couldn't get girls, and he dragged them down with him.

Yelena's lips moved, but she didn't say anything.

"roar!"

Upon hearing this, Shenchenhu immediately roared at the numerous beast soul rock demons, watching as the rock tiger leader got up and drove the Korean team down the mountain.

Then, with a flick of its tail, the giant orange cat lifted Bai Mo up and placed him on its back, leading the way with an air of superiority, and strode into the interior of the Barrier Mountain.

The Nationalist government team followed behind him, but they didn't say they wanted to ride with him.

"Hey, Jiang Yu, what bloodline does the Divine Dust Tiger possess as its ruler?!"

"High-level monarchs are generally capable of reaching the strength of a Grand Monarch. However, Bai Mo's seems even stronger to me, perhaps because it has a purer bloodline among the Divine Dust Tigers." Jiang Yu looked at the large tiger in front of him with envy.

"No wonder, but Jiang Yu," Zhao Manyan glanced at the snoring Night Rakshasa in his arms, then pointed at Shen Chenhu,

"Look, they're all cats, but other cats get to ride, while you're only meant to be ridden. Looking at it this way, you're so pathetic!"

Jiang Yu's face darkened, and he said irritably, "Even if I pull again, I can still cut off your head without anyone noticing! Making your identity even more rare."

After saying that, he glanced at Zhao Manyan's lower body, making a clear implication.

Unlike their cheerful demeanor, the atmosphere in the Russian team was somewhat eerie, mainly because Bai Mo's contracted beast had displayed formidable strength.

They were partners before, that's true, but they came here to compete for the core hub of the secret realm.

Now that they're following the Kyushu team, they can't help but have some wild thoughts. The team members are exchanging glances, all asking Yelena what to do.

The mountain seemed to have a flat top. It took them a full half hour to finally see the path down the mountain. But once they reached the top, everything was clearly visible.

On this side of the mountain, there was still a flat plain, and the whole world, where the sky met the earth, was shrouded in a gray haze, devoid of any life.

Only in the very center of the field, where a large area of ​​tombs, resembling a city, stood out with distinct colors.

The entire tomb is black, and it is a perfect square, just like a palace in a ghostly realm.

Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this tomb was essentially a city, with ancient, dark walls standing tall and a massive, imposing gate tightly shut, cast in bronze and iron, and impossible to move.

The city wall has no visible brick joints, as if it were built from a single, massive stone. There are gates on all four sides of the wall, but none of them are open.

"Captain Bai Mo, let's part ways here."

Just as Bai Mo and the others were discussing which door to use to force their way in, Yelena spoke up.

"We're here to compete for the secret realm. Since this tomb has four sides, let's test our skills from different directions!"

"Okay, take care." Bai Mo replied casually, listening to his teammates discussing where to enter.

"Why don't we enter from here? These city gates are all pretty much the same. There's a force blocking our way from the sky, which also prevents reconnaissance and flight. It doesn't matter which direction we choose," Nan Jue said.

"This tomb complex appears to belong to the ancient people of Kyushu. According to our custom, we usually store things in the very center."

Mu Nujiao crossed her arms and said thoughtfully, "The power center of a city is undoubtedly the city lord's mansion, and the symbol of the city lord's mansion's power is undoubtedly the city lord's seal."

"It's possible, but maybe it's something like a tiger tally," Jiang Yu offered a different opinion.

"Go inside and you'll find out." Seeing that they had made a decision, Bai Mo said this and immediately directed Shen Chenhu to push open the door.

The city walls were towering; even the ten-meter-tall Divine Dust Tiger was only a third of their height. The city gate was half the height of the city walls, entirely vermilion in color, and still significantly taller than the Divine Dust Tiger.

However, this majestic and sturdy city gate, cast in bronze and iron, did not seem difficult to open. Shenchenhu arrived at the city gate and raised his paws to slap the giant steel gate.

Da-ka-ka-ka~~!

Then a series of extremely short and sharp sounds rang out, and the two city gates opened inwards, revealing a long and deep avenue leading directly into the city.

Shen Chenhu walked in front, followed by Bai Mo and his group. They soon entered the area. The road was wide enough to accommodate more than a dozen buses side by side. The ground was paved entirely with dark blue stone bricks, giving it a grand and ancient feel.

On both sides are rows of bungalows, some high and some low, and you can even see restaurants and theaters. Except for the lack of people, this place is completely an ancient city.

The group walked nervously along the main road, constantly holding magic spells in their hands. However, as they passed through the streets and alleys, apart from being startled by the terracotta figures behind the roadside stalls, they did not encounter any danger.

Bai Mo even took out some items from a fabric shop and examined them, discovering that they were woven from materials found on demons. Despite their age, their usefulness had not been lost.

The other street shops were the same; apart from having little value, everything here resembled a city.

"The City Lord's Mansion?! We've arrived! Isn't this too easy? And we haven't seen any of the good stuff our mentor mentioned?"

The group stopped in front of a rather solemn and majestic building, which resembled a city within a city.

The dark red lacquered walls stood tall, and the magnificent gate was open. On the black plaque, three ancient Chinese characters, gilded and elegant, were written in bold strokes, signifying the City Lord's Mansion.

"Is this the City Lord's Mansion?"

Ai Jiangtu looked around, admiring the elegant and exquisite eaves, the beautiful patterns on the door, and the two majestic statues at the entrance.

Or perhaps it's the high-end materials used in the entire building, making the surrounding houses a completely different level from the ones we just passed through.

Although he didn't recognize the ancient script, everything here indicated that this was the city lord's mansion.

"Yes." Nan Jue nodded, looking warily into the open gate, only to see a quiet courtyard.

"It was indeed very easy for us to get here. There were no traps or mechanisms, and this place doesn't look like a tomb at all," Jiang Shaoxu said.

"The door is open, was it always open?" Guan Yu looked at the door, and although he didn't finish his sentence, everyone understood what he meant.

"Impossible, the Russian army couldn't have reached a city gate that quickly."

"That"

Looking at the open gate, everyone hesitated, unsure whether to go in, and all turned to look at Bai Mo.

"I'll scout ahead."

As Bai Mo spoke, he didn't move, but a moon-white constellation quickly formed around him, the summoning gate opened wide, and a purple-eyed blue lion appeared.

"Let's go in and take a look!"

This was one of Bai Mo's many mercenaries, a member of a race ruled by Feng Ling. He wouldn't feel any pain if he died.

That's what a jerk is like.

The purple-eyed blue lion roared and went inside with a delighted air. Because of a high-level spell, only it had been summoned.

It's like all the money that was originally supposed to be shared with the brothers and bosses ended up in his own pocket. How could he not be happy!

All the people saw was a five-meter-tall lion enter the gate and then walk into the courtyard until it disappeared from sight.

So they all looked at Bai Mo again without prior arrangement.

"How is it?" Mu Nujiao asked.

"He's not dead."

Bai Mo raised an eyebrow and immediately made a decision, "Let's go in, at least there's nothing going on in the area near the entrance."

Everyone nodded, and seeing Bai Mo go in first, they followed suit.

Bai Mo stopped, but inexplicably felt the space tremble. He immediately realized something was wrong and turned around to look.

But behind them, the space rippled like waves, and all that could be seen were figures moving further and further away like streaks of light.

"Space Domain!"

"Certainly!"

In an instant, a galaxy bloomed in Bai Mo's eyes, and a silver ring fell down, stabilizing the space once again.

Then the ripples in the space subsided, revealing two figures: Ai Jiangtu and Mu Nujiao.

"What's wrong?" Mu Nujiao asked, puzzled, seeing that Bai Mo wasn't moving forward but instead turning around and staring at them with a frown.

"There's a spatial teleportation mechanism here. If I hadn't intervened in time, you would have been teleported away too," Bai Mo said solemnly.

"No wonder I felt something was off when I came in," Ai Jiangtu said gravely. "Let's find them first; they should all be in here."

"Bai Mo, look, this doesn't look like the city lord's mansion, it looks more like a tomb palace." Mu Nujiao pointed to the ceiling, gesturing for Bai Mo to look.

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo and Ai Jiangtu both looked up and saw a ceiling made of stone, but these stones were special because they emitted light.

This made the area bright and airy, so that when people looked at it from the outside, it seemed as if it really was a courtyard.

In reality, this is a tomb chamber, but apart from some drums and two weapon racks with ordinary weapons, there is nothing else in this tomb chamber.

There's only one entrance, let's go.

Bai Mo scanned the area and then used his sonic abilities to probe again. He finally confirmed that there was only one passage in front of the three of them, and then immediately led them inside.

From the outside, it looks like just an ordinary, slightly larger classic house.

However, when the three entered, they found that it was not a narrow and boring passageway, nor an ordinary room or tomb chamber, but a spacious tomb square.

The entire square is the size of a football field, incredibly huge, and also very tall.

The square is dark blue, with ancient patterns on the paving stones. A road at least 100 meters wide extends from the gate they entered through to a throne that looks like a small building on the opposite side.

A blond-haired man stood motionless on the throne, which was quite strange.

"That's Zhao Manyan! What's wrong with him?" Ai Jiangtu spotted Zhao Manyan at a glance, but was somewhat puzzled.

However, they still did not step forward, but looked at both sides of the road.

A row of soldiers holding axes and halberds stood on both sides of the road. Each of them was a ten-meter-tall human figure, their entire bodies covered in blue iron armor.

Only his face, magnified many times, was visible, making him look somewhat awkward.

Such soldiers were not only present in the central road and in front of Zhao Manyan's throne, but also in other parts of the square, all fully armed and ready for battle, like a mighty army about to set out for war.

"Why do I have a feeling that those two blue-armored soldiers are watching us?"

Mu Nujiao pointed to the soldiers closest to them on both sides of the road ahead and said.

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo stopped looking around and looked at the two soldiers she was pointing at.

On its enormous face, the sculpted, dull eyes did indeed seem to be facing them.

Perhaps they were gatekeepers, hence the carvings, though they look rather strange.

Bai Mo frowned. He couldn't figure it out even by looking blindly. But he was skilled and bold, so he decisively said:

"Keep moving forward, and you'll find out if there's anything fishy going on once you try."

Having made his decision, he took the lead and stepped forward, with Ai Jiangtu and Mu Nujiao following closely behind, looking around warily.

As you walk forward, a figure stands upright at the feet of the giant statue, with its eyes closed, and comes into view.

"Jiang Shaoxu! What are you doing?"

Seeing that he was as motionless as Zhao Manyan, Bai Mo couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Hearing the sound, Jiang Shaoxu opened her eyes in surprise, though a hint of anxiety could still be seen in them. She shouted:

"Captain, be careful! These statues will attack any moving creatures!"

Upon hearing this, Bai Mo and the other two were taken aback. They looked around again and saw that there were only a few stone statues that were either turned to the side or had their eyes looking in this direction.

After those words, as if a mechanism had been pulled, they all stiffened and turned their huge, twisted faces to face Bai Mo and the other two.

"clang!"

A giant axe slammed down on the side of one's foot, but Jiang Shaoxu had already dodged it and ran towards Bai Mo.

But as the faces of the entire plaza's iron statues turned towards Bai Mo and his group, the weapons that were originally just decorations began to be brandished.

Some drew their bows, others their spears, while the warrior statues closest to Bai Mo on both sides of the road immediately swung their long axes down at him.

The axes ripped through the air with a sharp, explosive sound. Bai Mo had no doubt that if a city gate tower were standing here, it would be pulverized by these heavy blows. (End of Chapter)
