Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

A very long crack was torn open, and the thick dark clouds were torn open to create a hole across the sky. They could clearly see the light film of the domain guarding barrier, and the scorpion-faced monster was about to crash into it.

But in the end it didn't.

A ball of hot and dazzling flame appeared, illuminating the gloomy clouds with a pale white.

The ball of fire was actually condensed from the light film of the Domain Guarding Barrier. It seemed to have sensed that a monster was about to attack the barrier. This largest and most complex spiritual formation in the Southern Territory also had a sufficiently complete response mechanism. Now was the time for the Domain Guarding Barrier to counterattack!

"Roar!"

The scorpion-faced beast howled out from the clouds and rushed towards the huge ball of blazing white flames. However, before it made contact, its bony shell began to melt due to the burning.

Lu Mu stared at the scene of the moth flying into the flame and committing suicide.

"boom!"

The scorpion-faced monster smashed into the flames so hard that the vibration seemed to spread to the ground. Fire splashed, and the barrier seemed to be enraged. The blazing white fire spread instantly and turned into a pillar of fire, completely enveloping the scorpion-faced monster.

The flames lasted for a long time before they died down.

After the flames died down, only some debris and ashes fell from the sky.

That's it.

"I have heard my master talk about this 'Great Domain Guarding Barrier'. When our Desolate Sword Sect was still quite powerful, the Desolate Sword Sect also put a lot of effort into the construction of this formation."

This was the first time that Jinrou saw this barrier in action.

Her tone was full of emotion and pride.

The existence of the great domain-guarding barrier is well known to all the notable forces in the Southern Territory, both demons and humans.

The two tribes tried their best to seal the irreparable scars on the southern land. Even though humans are weaker now, some things will never be forgotten.

"The counterattack of this barrier is very strong..."

It was also the first time that Lu Mu saw the power of this domain-protecting barrier.

"But isn't it an overreaction just to stop these monsters?"

If the purpose was just to stop these monsters and prevent them from leaving, Jin Rou felt that the existence of this large barrier was a bit excessive. Because in her opinion, this strongest beast would not be able to withstand a single blow from a cultivator who had just entered the realm of creation. Why would it require such a huge force to defend it?

Before Lu Mu could answer, the remaining remains of the strange beast fell from the sky and shattered on the wasteland.

And from the corpse, a dark shadow slowly emerged, hovering above the corpse, squirming restlessly.

"Miss Jinrou, do you want to know what this defensive barrier is designed to protect against?"

Lu Mu pointed his finger and she looked in that direction.

"To prevent that guy from running away."

The dark shadow looked like a huge, strange and twisted spider.

Although the shadow is faint, the outline is clearly discernible. The spider's limbs are as sharp as blades, its mouth is slender, and there is a row of hideous barbs on its back. The shadow is terrifyingly tall, at least dozens of feet tall. From a distance, it looks like an extremely evil creature lying across the land, emitting a terrifying and shuddering aura.

"Ben will not be able to be locked up!"

"Sooner or later, you will all die!"

The spider shadow roared angrily, and the sound seemed to come from a long distance, shaking the sky. Every time it uttered a word, a circle of black mist spread out, forming a strong gust of wind!

Every word it spoke was like a sharp blade stabbing deeply into Jinrou's chest. Her thin lips opened slightly, her face was pale, and her eyes were wide open.

This phantom was actually shouting unwillingly at the protective barrier that trapped it.

"..."

But the barrier's response to it was simple and crude.

The crack in the cloud layer had not yet closed, and a huge force was gathered on the light film again. In an instant, a pillar of scorching fire fell from the sky. The power of the pillar of fire was so great that even Lu Mu and Jin Rou, who were watching everything on a high slope in the distance, could feel the ultimate breath of destruction. The response was so overbearing and violent that the spider phantom didn't even have time to dodge before it was smashed to pieces and disappeared.

The barrier's counterattack left a lava-like mark on the brown-purple wasteland.

At this point, all these unusual movements were truly over.

The light film gradually dimmed, the thick clouds gathered, and everything became quiet again.

"...Mr. Lu, do you know where that monster came from?"

Jinrou looked at him silently.

She had no idea what existed in this ancient battlefield, but Lu Mu, who was not a native of the Southern Region, seemed to have a thousand secrets in his heart that she didn't know about. It seemed that he had the answer to every mystery.

"know."

"That's one of the four great generals under the throne of the Outland Mother Goddess."

"He's a very difficult guy to mess with."

Lu Mu answered her easily.

Chapter 70: Meeting Chi Xin Again

The calmness and indifference revealed between Lu Mu's brows inexplicably made Jin Rou feel a little cold.

Others may not know, but Lu Mu has always known that this ancient battlefield is actually the same as the completely enclosed space under the gate of Shura Palace...

It's all a "prison".

Those imprisoned in the prison are powerful enemies from outside the domain who were defeated by the creatures of this world in the Xuantian Catastrophe ten thousand years ago. They cannot be killed, so in the end they had no choice but to seal off the town and lock them up in "prisons" that were tens of thousands of miles apart.

However, perhaps the Grand Hall Master Yue Lianhuang and the higher-ups of the Gu Yue Yulong clan still know something about the one of the four divine generals from outside the domain buried underground in this ancient battlefield.

But there is no use in understanding.

In the past, when there were ancient monks, they were completely helpless against these gods, and they are still helpless now.

"God General... and this Mother Goddess from outside the domain, who are they?"

"Mother Goddess? Haha." Lu Mu laughed softly, "She's quite a dangerous guy, but Miss Jinrou, don't think about it now, it's not the right time yet."

"When the time comes, it's not your turn to worry about it."

There was a hint of sarcasm in what he said.

This is indeed the case. The Mother Goddess from Outside the Territory is the ultimate mastermind who the Xuantian Realm needs to use all the power of all living beings in the world to deal with. It is not Jin Rou's turn to care about her, and even Lu Mu doesn't need to care about her, at least not now.

No matter when, that is the great cause that the "protagonist" carries on his shoulders.

Although Gu Yunxi is just a daily worker now, she will soon understand her responsibilities.

Jin Rou was stunned, she really couldn't understand the meaning of the changing emotions in his words.

Lu Mu had already walked away.

She hurried after him.

The unusual movement that occurred in the night was ultimately just a small episode, because the power of the domain-guarding barrier was still solid and unshakable.

If nothing else happens.

Lu Mu couldn't help but think of Murong Zun.

It feels like...if nothing unexpected happens, it seems like an unlikely thing.

……

It is difficult to tell how wide this ancient battlefield is, but after Lu Mu and Jin Rou traveled for nearly a night, he finally felt a familiar breath.

That was the aura that was closest to Lu Mu's spiritual sense. Although he didn't know which one of the four women it was, it was always a good thing to meet her. At least his goal of reuniting with the team had been achieved a quarter.

He and Jin Rou quickly crossed the desolate mountains in front of them, flew forward, and soon reached the depths of the mountains.

Then, Lu Mu saw the little Bi'an lying on the ground, motionless.

It’s that little foodie, Chi Xin.

She revealed her demon form, a four-meter-tall demon body that was exactly the same as the one in Lu Mu's memory. It seemed that its aura was much stronger than it was a few months ago. Its hair seemed to be dyed with white cold fire, and waves of burning breath were floating around.

"Finally I found one."

The first thing Lu Mu did when he saw Chi Xin was to check what food was left in his spirit ring.

In order to pamper her well, Lu Mu prepared a large amount of roast chicken and grilled meat in his spirit ring. In short, there were no rich dishes, but there was enough meat for her to satisfy her hunger.

When the two men landed, there was a thick and ordinary fog in the depths of the mountains.

There were no living creatures, nor any traces of any strange beasts. As for the abyss of demonic energy, it was as if it did not exist. Deep in this mountain range, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was slightly stronger. If a low-level strange beast dared to enter here, its flesh would quickly decay.

"She is the little princess of the Feitian Bi'an clan, right?"

Jin Rou was very cautious, keeping a distance of a hundred steps from the four-meter-tall Chi Xin, as if she was afraid of waking something.

She did have reason to be cautious.

In the martial arts arena, Chi Xin actually only attacked once. With one move of her pink fist, she knocked her opponent, who was at the fifth level of Yuan Ji, to the ground, and his life or death was unknown.

At that time, she labeled Chi Xin as someone to stay away from.

Jin Rou was also a talented woman. She knew that when exploring the ancient battlefield, she had to guard against not only the threats from the ancient battlefield itself, but also from the other eighty-seven people who had also obtained the admission qualification. Even if they were all human, they had to be careful to guard against the possibility of sneak attacks from behind. The humans and demons in the Southern Region had been hostile to each other for thousands of years, and this impression could not be changed overnight.

"It's her. She's with me."

Lu Mu walked closer, looked at her carefully for a while, and then said, "It's just that this girl wants to sleep as soon as she comes in...something's not right."

His brows furrowed even tighter, he stretched out his index finger, pressed a certain acupuncture point on her body, and slightly transferred some true energy into her body.

Then Chi Xin woke up!

She opened her hazy eyes and saw Lu Mu. She was stunned for half a second, with a flash of vigilance and confusion in her eyes. But she soon saw Lu Mu's face clearly, and the hostile expression on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by joy.

"Ah! Brother Lu Mu!"

The four-foot-tall monster body shrank in an instant, and was replaced by a smaller wheat-skinned silver-haired girl who excitedly rushed over and hung on his waist, "I knew you would come to find me! I knew it!"

Lu Mu smiled and rubbed her head: "Of course I won't abandon you."

"too slow!"

Chi Xin complained, "I thought I was going to starve to death in this place."

She actually only cares about eating.

And it has to be delicious.

Chi Xin hugged his neck and rubbed it, saying coquettishly: "Look at me, I'm not hurt at all."

Except for some blood-red marks on her cheeks and neck, there were not many injuries on her body. However, her spirit seemed to be more energetic than before.

"Let me check it out."

He lowered Chi Xin from his waist, then reached out his hand and swept his Qi over her body.

Chi Xin did not shy away and allowed him to examine her.

Lu Mu quickly withdrew his hand and frowned even more tightly: "Did someone attack you?"

He found some extremely small injuries between Chi Xin's flesh and blood, but these injuries were not originally so small. It was because Chi Xin's body was healing itself. Perhaps this was the reason why she lay down and fell asleep deep in the mountains.

She needed her body to rest and heal.

Who would attack the little princess of the Feitian Bi'an clan?

Don't you die?

Her memory is not bad. If she tells this matter after leaving this ancient battlefield, the Feitian Bi'an clan will definitely come to seek revenge.

"Well... yes, there is."

Chi Xin blinked her eyes. "I don't know what happened to them. I got separated from you guys when I came in. I don't recognize the dozen guys who were with me. There were two humans, and the rest were monsters..."

She clenched her hands into fists at the same time, looking unhappy, "They were the ones who beat me! They also beat the other monsters!"

Lu Mu and Jin Rou's brows twitched when they heard this.

Two humans attack several monsters at the same time?

"Which force do those two belong to? How dare they be so arrogant? Before I set off, my master specifically instructed me not to have too many conflicts with the demon tribe and to avoid them if possible."

Jinrou couldn't help but mutter.

But Lu Mu's expression quickly became serious. He stared at Chi Xin and asked, "Are those two humans wearing silver robes and masks?"

"One is, but how did you know?"
