Emperor of the North Chapter 1025

Chapter 1025 - Undying Demon Corpses

Because Li Mu's spirit sense was being restricted, he did not spread out his powerful spirit sense to carefully search the underground cave. Instead, he quickly searched around, but he was unable to find anything even after searching almost everywhere in the cave.

"It seems like you're right. That thing can really move on its own. It seems like we need to expand the search range. However, there are so many tunnels here. Where can it be?"

After Li Mu was unable to find the Blue Flying Sword in the cave, his gaze landed on the many tunnels of the cave.

"Then let's go one by one?" However, isn't this a bit too much of a waste of time? From what I see, this place is very gloomy, and does not seem like a good place. Furthermore, why have the Emptiness Monk and the others not come yet?

Xiao Ya said with some doubt.

"They won't be tempted? "Hehe, you think too highly of them, but it's a bit strange. Logically speaking, if we come together, they would probably be unable to control themselves and follow us. But why haven't we arrived yet? Could it be that the place we landed at is different from ours?"

Being mentioned by Xiao Ya, Li Mu also felt that something was not right. He thought for a while before sending a sound transmission to Qing Ling, "Qing Ling, why did you stop talking after entering this place?

"What nonsense are you talking about? I just feel a little strange. How could I possibly be sleeping? This place seems really demonic."

Qing Ling snappily replied Li Mu, her tone filled with doubt.

"Weirdo, how did you become a weirdo? What did you find out?"

Although Li Mu also felt that this underground cave was a little strange, when it came to the word "demon", he really did not feel anything. Other than the restrictions on spiritual consciousness, he did not find any other problems here.

"I don't know, but in short, it's a bit abnormal. Be a bit more careful, and this place has a huge restriction on my Spiritual Sense. Although I also hope that you can find that sword, I'm afraid it's a trap."

Hearing that, Li Mu immediately became serious, he knew that since Qing Ling said that, then there must be a reason.

After a moment of contemplation, Li Mu slapped the spirit beast bag on his waist and released several tens of G.o.d Slaughtering Bugs. Under his orders, all of them flew into the many tunnels of the cave.

Big Brother Li, your Spirit Insects are really good, especially when it comes to scouting out roads. I've decided that in the future, I will also cultivate a batch of Spirit Insects. That way, no matter if it's in terms of fighting against others or other aspects, they'll be of great help.

The moment she saw Li Mu release the G.o.d Slaughtering Bug, Xiao Ya immediately guessed what Li Mu wanted to do. After staying with Li Mu for the past few days, she had already developed a great interest towards spirit insects.

"Naturally, my Deicide Bugs have their own unique characteristics. However, if you want to breed Spirit Insects, it's best to choose the better ones. Otherwise, they won't be of much use in front of a true expert."

Seeing that Xiao Ya was interested in spirit insects, Li Mu smiled and reminded the other party. However, just as he finished speaking, her expression darkened and she frowned at the same time. She realized that the G.o.d Slaughtering Bugs that she released had actually stopped contacting him at the same time.

How could this be? I, the Deicide Bugs, used a Sovereign Technique to plant a Spiritual Sense Inhibition Formation. Unless I die, there's no way to break off contact with me, and the Spiritual Sense Inhibition Formation I set up by the Sovereign Technique isn't affected by any ordinary Inhibition Formation either.

Li Mu muttered in his heart. He found it unbelievable that dozens of G.o.d Slaughtering Bugs he released would simultaneously cut off contact with him.

"What's wrong, Brother Li? Did something happen?"

Xiao Ya noticed that something was amiss with Li Mu and immediately asked worriedly.

"This place is too strange. The G.o.d Slaughtering Insects that I released all at the same time had their mental connection severed from me. Even if they were all dead, it would still be impossible for them to kill so many G.o.d Slaughtering Insects in so many different places at the same time!"

Li Mu and Xiao Ya explained. At the same time, he turned around to look behind him, but what made his expression turn even uglier was, he realized that the entrance to the underground cave with Xiao Ya had actually disappeared.

"Where's the exit?!"

Seeing that it had turned into the exit of a stone wall, Li Mu immediately walked over.

"How strange, wasn't this the exit to the outside world originally? How come it has completely disappeared? Could it be that Void Monk and the others are up to no good?"

The first thing she thought of was the Void Monk and the others. This was because in the Fallen Devil Valley, there were basically no cultivators, and only the Void Monk and a few others who entered the Fallen Devil Valley with them were suspected.

Li Mu suddenly raised his hand and struck out with his palm of great sorrow, the thick True Essence in his body transformed into a Golden Buddha Palm that was a few metres long in front of him.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a loud rumbling sound, the Golden Buddha Palm smashed onto the stone wall, causing the strong zhenyuan force to shake the stone wall until it shattered, causing a large part of the stone wall to cave in. However, the collapsed part behind the stone wall was still a rock, which was clearly one with the shattered stone wall.

"It's really strange that this place wasn't intentionally blocked by someone. It was just an exit, but how did it suddenly disappear?"

Li Mu said in disbelief after he tested his palm.

"Big Brother Li, what should we do? I think there's something wrong with the situation. We don't need the broken sword, let's go back!"

Xiao Ya also clearly felt the strangeness of the situation, so she suggested with a bit of cowardice.

"Buzz!"

Without waiting for Li Mu to speak, suddenly, the entire cave started to shake violently, and on the uneven ground of the cave, a ball of black Qi emerged. When the black Qi appeared on the ground, it started to condense and did not dissipate, and very quickly, it turned into a pile of rotten corpses.

These rotting corpses were all in human forms. Their eyes flickered with a dark green light, their mouths were full of sharp fangs, and their hands were covered with sharp nails. There were at least thirty to forty of them.

Although they looked very sinister and evil, these carrion corpses were not complete. The flesh on their bodies were all rotten, and some of them even had stomachs that were leaking out, emitting a pungent smell.

"Roar!"

When they appeared in the cave, the 30-40 rotting corpses all raised their heads and roared, and then they all pounced on Xiao Ya and Li Mu.

"Spirit Demon Corpse, it's actually a demon corpse. Li Mu brat, you have to be careful, these demon corpses all contain intense corpse poison, if you get hurt by them, it's going to be troublesome!"

In fact, even without Qing Ling's reminder, Li Mu herself knew that these rotten corpses were not easy to deal with. He had fought with these demon corpses before at the Azure Cloud Mountain, and knew that these half-dead, half-alive monsters were not easy to deal with. However, the auras these demon corpses in front of him were many times more powerful than the demon corpses he met at the Green Cloud Mountain back then.

"Go to h.e.l.l!"

Although she was protected by the light s.h.i.+eld formed by the Void Talisman outside of her body, at the same time, she was surrounded by the many Spirit Demon corpses. Xiao Ya could not help but take action first, she took out her long bow and shot four to five arrows made of lightning, which all struck the three-headed Spirit Demon corpses that were rus.h.i.+ng towards them.

"How can this be!"

What happened next caused Xiao Ya's expression to change greatly. When the arrows she shot out landed on the demon corpses, they were actually all absorbed into their bodies, and ultimately melted and disintegrated.

"palm of great sorrow!"

Seeing that Xiao Ya's attack did not manage to harm the demon corpse, Li Mu raised her hand and released another palm of great sorrow, transforming into a huge Golden Buddha Palm, striking onto the body of a demon corpse.

Under the powerful impact of Li Mu's palm of great sorrow, the demon corpse that was struck by was instantly split into pieces, and burst apart, but before Li Mu could rejoice, the broken pieces of the demon corpse, actually reformed together, and pounced towards him once again.

"What kind of monster is this? It was smashed to pieces and can even be revived! This is too abnormal!"

It was the first time for Xiao Ya to see a monster that could recover instantly after being shattered. In a moment of desperation, she summoned her Wild Thunder Blade and swept her hands across the demon corpses that were rus.h.i.+ng at her from every direction.

"Rumble!"

The Wild Thunder Blade was a semisage. Under Xiao Ya's full effort to move it, dozens of blue bolts of lightning shot out, bringing with them a powerful aura of astral thunder, and landed on the corpses of the demons that had rushed to her front.

Accompanied by the sounds of exploding thunder and lightning, the dozen or so demon beasts that had rushed to Xiao Ya's side were all blown apart by the blue lightning. However, these demon corpses that had been shattered by the semisage's might, quickly rea.s.sembled together, and were resurrected under Xiao Ya's and Li Mu's shocked gazes.

In the time it took for Li Mu and Xiao Ya to make a move, many demon corpses had already rushed in front of them. They also raised their sharp fingernail like claws and fiercely grabbed onto the light s.h.i.+eld outside of Li Mu's and Xiao Ya's body.

The light s.h.i.+eld outside of Li Mu's and Xiao Ya's body was formed from Void Talisman. In terms of defensive power, it could not compare to resisting the attacks of the spatial cracks, but it was also not something that could be disintegrated by the attacks of the dozens of demon corpses.

Big Brother Li, we can't continue like this. This Void Talisman mainly has an extremely high defense against spatial energy attacks, but when facing other attacks, it's weaker. If we continue like this, it won't be long before this piece of Void Talisman is destroyed!

Xiao Ya looked at the white light s.h.i.+eld that was continuously being attacked by the demon corpses and said anxiously. Under the joint attack of the many demon corpses, the light s.h.i.+eld outside of Li Mu's body had already started to show many cracks, adding the fact that this piece of Void Talisman had been activated for a long time, its power had almost reached its limit, so it was unable to resist the attacks for long.

Li Mu knew that he was in a dangerous situation. After a moment of thought, his right hand suddenly lit up with a white light. At the same time, a terrifying cold aura burst out from his body.

"yin-finger!"

Li Mu suddenly bellowed, and immediately after, he extended his right hand out and pointed at the Spirit Demon corpses in all directions.

A bone-chilling cold zhen yuan qi shot out from Li Mu's fingertip, instantly freezing all the demon corpses and turning them into white ice sculptures …
