551 Fatty Dragon, Black Tiger, and the Fox (1/2)
Soon, Qin Mu knocked out a devil divine arts practitioner and stripped his clothes. He changed appearance and just walked flamboyantly through the devil lands while they swarmed toward the abyss.
There had been a sudden change in that area. The activity was noticed by everyone, and the whole city was alarmed. Even though the events happened fast and stopped soon, the power that had burst forth had been extremely terrifying.
Whoosh!
Two devil gods flew toward the abyss. Numerous devils who had wings followed right after them.
Qin Mu went against the crowd, slowly squeezing forward. In time, he walked out of the crowd and moved toward the city gate.
He didn't dare to fly as he was in the city of the devils. He didn't know how many devil gods or experts of Divine Bridge Realm and Life and Death Realm were hiding around.
Even the gods of Supreme Emperor Heaven wouldn't dare to be reckless here, so he could only slowly inch forward. While doing that, he became anxious again.
When the two devil gods reached the bottom of the abyss, they would find the fainted Fu Riluo, and it wouldn't take them but a moment to bring him back to consciousness. When the devil god opened his eyes, he would definitely order a lockdown on all cities to look for Qin Mu,
If he couldn't leave before the order for the lockdown was given, he might not be able to escape at all!
The city had once been a divine city of Supreme Emperor Heaven, and it was unbelievably vast. It would take him some time to reach its outer walls.
Qin Mu hurried until he finally came to the city gate. At that moment, a shout came from the abyss. ”Respectable king has commanded to immediately lock down the whole city. Restrict all devils from going out!”
”Activate the formation, lock down the city!”
”The ground, the sky, lock down all of them so even a mosquito would have to forget about going out!”
Qin Mu's expression changed slightly as he looked at the city gate. There were numerous strong workers of the devil race pushing the huge city gate forcefully to shut it. On the towers and other tall buildings, formation markings and runes lighted up. They flowed down from the tops of the buildings like water and went toward the city walls.
Once the formation and rune markings on the city wall lighted up, beams of dazzling lights shot into the sky. Between the markings, a huge space barrier began forming in the sky.
At the base of the wall, there were quite a number of rune and formation markings flowing into the ground!
Even the capital city of Eternal Peace didn't have such defensive preparations. If the formation markings in the sky fused with the formation markings in the ground, Qin Mu would have to forget about leaving the city!
He seemed to suddenly melt, turning into a black shadow that moved quickly along the corner of the wall. It was heading straight for the city gate!
Gates were huge and heavy. Even with dozens of strong devil workers working together, they could only slowly push it closed.
The strong workers had cultivated corporeal body divine arts and had boundless strength, not spells and spirit weapons. They only cultivate their muscles, and bones, raising their physical strength!
There were similar strong workers in the army of Heavenly Saint Cult and Eternal Peace Empire. When a couple who had cultivated their strength to the extreme, they could even carry a stone statue that was the corporeal body of a god!
Yet the city gate of this divine city required dozens of strong workers to push it!
The shadow that was Qin Mu leaped through the shadows of the buildings like a phantom. He seemed akin to a spirit that was rushing to the bottom of the city gate. Before it closed, he had to leave or else he would have no way out!
With the effort of the numerous strong devil workers, the gate was about to be closed. There was only a small gap left between the two huge doors.
Suddenly, a shiny bead rolled over and got jammed right between the two doors, preventing it from being closed.
A strong worker beside the door saw this and kicked the bead out of the city. He grumbled and pushed the huge doors shut.
It just that he didn't see that when he kicked, his 'shadow' had rolled out together with the bead, fusing with the shadow of the bead.
The bead continued to roll for over thirty yards. It rolled to the side of the moat and gradually stopped there.
The oval-shaped shadow under the bead suddenly grew limbs, and its two shadow-like arms became longer and longer. They soon put force on the shiny bead, and it rolled forward and dropped into the river with a plop.
After a moment, in the shadow on the opposite the moat, a pitch-black shadow crawled out and moved close to the ground.
Soon, the city gate opened wide and countless devils rushed out of the city. ”That person is not in the city. Find him immediately; we can't let him leave our territory!”
Qin Mu hid and dodged, avoiding all the watchtowers. He utilized his Phantom Illusion Technique to its extreme for that. In time, he went up high and looked afar, but he still couldn't see Li City.
'Fu Riluo had brought me to the territory of the devils, but where exactly is this place? How far is it from the human territory?'
The land was vast and the sky was dim. The sun in the east was cold as it gradually became red, signaling the coming of night.
Qin Mu composed himself and hid his figure. 'Supreme Emperor Heaven doesn't have even one star, so it's hard to orient oneself. I can only hurry on my way in the morning.'
The scouts of the devil race searched everywhere while Qin Mu hid here and there. When he was about to be discovered, he killed the devil scout and changed into his thick black iron armor. With the helmet and a long black iron devil spear hanging on the hooks of the horse, he roamed on a Devil Fire Nightmare through the fog of the devil territory.
On the second day, the ugly broken sun lit up as usual, and Qin Mu pushed open the face cover of the black iron helmet to orient himself. He used devil language to steer the Devil Fire Nightmare toward the east.
When afternoon came, Qin Mu raised his head toward the sun, and his face changed drastically. The broken sun in the east had suddenly extinguished!
