Leaving Tushan Palace, Si Xi and the others flew fast. Before the Town Hall, a series of teleporting magic formations had been glowing brightly on a new square.
The ten-thousand dragons water-sealing magic formation included ten-thousand sub-formations. Each sub-formation served as an independent water-sealing magic formation, yet all sub-formations were connected. Every single one of these sub-formations built with the breathing earth was a core of the entire ten-thousand dragons water-sealing magic formation, and was essential. Therefore, under the order of Emperor Shun, ten-thousand teleporting magic formations were built with a great cost, each leading to a sub-formation of the ten-thousand dragons water-sealing magic formation.
Ever since Ji Hao purchased a large group of Xiu Clan masters from Black Shark Prison, the human-kind had achieved an impressive improvement in the level of technology in the sphere of magic formations. It was especially true for commonly used ones, such as teleporting magic formations, for which a whole new level had been reached.
Ji Hao followed closely behind Si Xi and stepped into a teleporting magic formation.
A jade board floated above the teleporting magic formation, with two characters sparkling on it. On the jade board, the destination of this teleporting magic formation was clearly marked — Feather Mountain.
Ji Hao’s heart sank. Feather Mountain was located on the edge of Midland, the most barren area. The mountain was steep, which made it perfect for building the water-sealing formation. The sub-formation in Feather Mountain was highly important. If it were damaged, the entire ten-thousand dragons water-sealing magic formation would be affected.
For this reason, Si Xi was heading to Feather Mountain himself, to see what was happening.
But to Ji Hao, Feather Mountain meant something else. If he didn’t misremember this, according to some books he read in his previous life, Si Xi was killed by Zhu Rong, the Fire God, in Feather Mountain, under the order of a Divine Emperor, because of the flood-controlling mission. By now, Ji Hao surely knew that the ancient heaven had fallen and the five Divine Emperors had gone missing long ago. The friendship had been spanning for generations between Zhu Rong Family and the family of Si Xi. Besides, Zhu Rong family people served the alliance of human clans as the Great Libation for generations, handling all important ceremonies for the alliance and keeping those deepest secrets, such as Chi You, who was sealed in the Devil-suppressing Palace.
Therefore, Ji Hao didn’t believe that Zhu Rong would kill Si Xi.
However, the place that Si Xi was going to was indeed Feather Mountain!
Silently, Ji Hao made a few seemingly unintentional hand motions. None of the others noticed his moves. In their eyes, Ji Hao did nothing but tidied his sleeves and touched his belt. But in the eyes of Man Man, Shaosi, Yu Mu, Feng Xing and Taisi, Ji Hao had just given an emergency warning sign.
This trip was going to be extremely dangerous, and everyone had to be extra careful.
Man Man narrowed her eyes and jumped to Yemo Shanye. Feng Xing silently took a sideway step. Normally, he never wanted to be too close to the others. But now, he subconsciously approached Yemo Shanye to keep her under his protection. Man Man curved her lips and threw a glance at Feng Xing, then quickly took two steps backward, laughed and stood side by side with Shaosi.
Yu Mu coughed slightly, then gave an honest smile. He carried his large black iron pot on his back and stood behind Taisi. Because of his enormous fat body, Yu Mu looked just like a mother bear, while Taisi looked like a newborn baby bear. Yu Mu perfectly shielded Taisi’s back with his own body. Additionally, if any attack came to Taisi from the front, Yu Mu would be able to react immediately.
More importantly, without drawing any attention, Yu Mu had quietly put a secretly concocted detoxifying magic pill in the hand of each of his teammates. Man Man, Shaosi, Taisi, Feng Xing, Yemo Shanye, they all hid the magic pill under the tongue and slowly melted it with saliva, then swallowed it. A strong coolness spread out in their bodies. Now, all Yu Mu’s teammates were protected, and he could cast his scary magics of poison as much as he liked.
