Longevity starts with learning

Chapter 408: Startling Step by Step

The demonic clouds were rolling, covering the sky and the sun. The towering giant city was like an ancient beast hidden in the heavy clouds, majestic and terrifying.

The cold wind was like a knife, howling like ghosts and wolves. Several people walked slowly forward, with different thoughts.

Boom!

There was a roar, and in this desolate and dark world, light emerged. The sky and the earth suddenly brightened, and the bright moonlight appeared from the direction of the city. In just a moment, it was like a meteor shower, and it came in an instant!

"Get up!"

The real demon shouted, raised his hand and pointed, and the umbrella-shaped magic weapon suddenly appeared. Among the flowing lights, the size was as desired, and the umbrella was like a sky curtain, protecting everyone in it.

Boom boom boom!

One after another, the bright light bombarded the supporting flowing light and color, ripples surged, the qi was annihilated, the blooming light exploded and swept, and outside the blocking of the flowing light and color, there were waves of surging demonic energy fluctuations.

"Roar!"

The True Demon roared, his gray-white robe shattered, and his body twisted and changed dramatically. It took only a few breaths for him to change from being as gentle as jade to a body of several feet long.

The stream of light became more and more brilliant, and the True Demon stood tall, like an ancient giant demon, resisting the punishment of heaven and earth.

Buzz buzz buzz...

It seemed that the True Demon's resistance had triggered some chain formations. The buzzing sound in the city was faintly heard, and the demonic energy above the city surged, pouring into the city like a river pouring back into the city. An unspeakable terror seemed to be brewing.

The True Demon's face changed drastically, and he rolled up the people behind him and retreated at a high speed.

It was not until everyone withdrew from the sensing range and retreated nearly a hundred miles that the great terror seemed to slowly dissipate.

When everyone landed, the True Demon looked towards the direction of the giant city, his face was uncertain, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Chu Mu stood in the corner of the edge, looking indifferent, as if it had nothing to do with him.

The true demon was blocked outside the city, which should be a good thing for him.

The secret realm has a master. He entered the secret realm and conducted many experiments, causing the secret realm to fall into a heavenly calamity. Later, he broke the demon-sealing formation and destroyed the divine shadow pill taken by the true demon, causing the heavenly calamity to come.

Such a big commotion would definitely alarm the master of the secret realm.

If he noticed, would the mysterious master of the secret realm... turn a blind eye to this demon?

Chu Mu felt that the possibility of turning a blind eye should not be great.

In particular, if it is true as the true demon said, this demon realm is part of the secret realm and has the same origin as the secret realm, then it is even more impossible to turn a blind eye.

If the master of the secret realm wants to destroy the true demon's plan, there will inevitably be a conflict. Once the conflict occurs, the true demon will definitely not be able to take care of him...

Chu Mu thought a little, and one idea after another has been swirling and taking root in his mind.

It was still unclear what the True Demon was planning, but under the threat of the remaining forbidden formations in the city, the journey into the city was obviously blocked.

But the broken forbidden formations could not stop the pace of a fourth-level True Demon after all.

It took several days, and right in front of Chu Mu, the True Demon bit by bit tested the forbidden formations in the city, breaking the remaining forbidden formations on the city walls and outside the city.

Chu Mu followed the True Demon, and took advantage of the opportunity of the True Demon breaking the formations to gain a deeper understanding of the forbidden formations inscriptions in the Demon Realm.

On the sixth day, several people set off again.

And this time, from the outside of the city to the crack in the city wall, the distance of a hundred miles was unobstructed.

The crack in the city wall was a hundred feet wide, just like a giant axe falling from the sky, tearing the city wall apart. There was still a hideous crack on the ground between the ruins.

Everyone walked forward in the ruins, and when they completely passed through this crack, the scenery in the city was completely revealed to everyone's vision.

Compared to the height of everyone, which is only seven or eight feet, entering this city is like entering... a city of giants.

The houses and streets in the city are all hundreds of feet high and wide. Under the erosion of demonic energy for many years, the streets and houses are all inky black.

Just like the sea of ​​blood and corpses, the city is full of demon corpses, which stretch along with the houses and pavilions. Under the lingering demonic energy, it is difficult to see the end.

Tap tap tap tap...

Just as everyone was observing the scenery in the city, a neat and orderly sound of footsteps suddenly came from far to near on the streets shrouded in inky black in the distance.

Soon, amid the lingering demonic fog, a demon army with cold armor came into everyone's sight.

The demons are all in human form, wrapped in inky black armor, holding long spears and sharp blades, and under the evil ghost masks, a series of scarlet eyes have locked on Chu Mu and others at the cracks in the city wall.

"Demons? Puppets?"

Chu Mu was surprised. The demons had long been defeated. After tens of thousands of years, it was impossible for the demons to still exist in this demon city.

But the demon army in front of him...

Very strange!

It has the breath of flesh and blood of living beings, but it is similar to dead things...

Like puppets, but not puppets...

"Those who trespass into the Demon City will be killed without mercy!"

At this moment, Chu Mu could not think too much. With a hoarse and harsh voice, the cold weapons were swung, and the tragic killing momentum swept towards everyone!

"Hmph!"

The real demon snorted coldly, rolled up his sleeves, and the tragic killing momentum stopped abruptly as the demonic energy surged. Dozens of demon puppets flew backwards.

He raised his hand and waved it again. Points of light flashed, and the flying demon puppets were torn into pieces and completely annihilated.

The streets not far away seemed to be awakened by the noise, and there were waves of hurried footsteps.

Buzz...

Just as the true demon was pursuing the victory, a buzzing sound suddenly appeared, and then the surging demonic energy seen outside the city appeared again above the demon city.

The demonic energy surged, first gathering like a tornado, for about ten breaths, and then pouring like a river pouring back into a palace not far from the crowd.

As the demonic energy poured in, bright fluorescent lights flickered and emerged, and strands of terrifying aura also overflowed.

"Follow me!"

Seeing this scene, the real demon's face changed drastically. He did not want to fight. He raised his hand and rolled up everyone, took a step, and rushed out.

But this time, being in the city, it seemed that there was nowhere to escape.

I saw that the surging demonic energy suddenly froze, and a bright moon rose slowly in the palace. The moonlight was bright and beautiful, and the soft light fell on the city. The dark demon city seemed to finally usher in the light.

When the light shone on Chu Mu and his party, the moonlight gently dissipated, and the coldness like ice suddenly emerged in everyone's heart.

The light gathered, and in just a moment, it condensed into a pillar of light that reached the sky, falling from the sky and attacking the fleeing people!

"Get up!"

The true demon felt something was wrong and wanted to dodge, but the light pillar seemed to lock everyone, and there was no escape!

As the light pillar approached, the true demon shouted, and the umbrella-shaped magic weapon reappeared. The giant umbrella that was enough to resist the thunder tribulation of the secret realm was as fragile as white paper in front of the light pillar. In an instant, it was completely pierced by the light pillar.

The light was dim, and the giant umbrella was broken.

"Roar! Roar! Roar!"

The pupils of the true demon shrank suddenly, and he roared fiercely. His body twisted and changed. When the demon body appeared, his claws waved, evolving into a giant claw phantom blocking the light pillar.

Boom!

The light pillar collided with the giant claw, and there was a shocking roar!

Demon blood fell like rain, the real demon fell to the ground, and the people who were pulled by the real demon also fell from the sky to the street like falling sandbags.

The demon puppets roared, the army charged, the killing momentum gathered, and the city was noisy!

"Cough cough cough..."

Chu Mu climbed up from a demon corpse in a mess. At this moment, he didn't care about anything else. He glanced at the real demon in the bloody sky. Without any hesitation, the art of man and sword integration appeared, the sword light flashed, and he quickly fled to the outside of the city.

"Forbidden!"

After flying for only a hundred feet, accompanied by the low shout of the real demon, the sword light disappeared, and Chu Mu, who was flying, lost control again and fell from the sky.

The next moment, a pulling force emerged, and the falling Chu Mu was pulled to the side of the real demon.

The moon was bright in the sky, and as the light column reappeared, the True Demon moved and pulled up the fallen people. Then, the True Demon raised his hand and a flag appeared. The demonic energy surged at his fingertips, and the flag changed, covering everyone.

At this time, the light column condensed in the sky seemed to have lost its target and slowly dissipated. The rising moon also dimmed and dissipated visibly.

After losing the target, the many demon puppets that were still murderous fell silent one after another, like statues, standing neatly in various places on the street.

"Go!"

The True Demon didn't care about being embarrassed, and rolled up everyone and jumped.

Tall and majestic houses passed by everyone's vision quickly, and among the demon corpses, some intact, some broken, some organized, or three or two silent demon puppets were all revealed in everyone's vision.

The real demon was obviously worried. He flew only a few dozen miles and stopped immediately after avoiding the range of the bright moon.

"Grandpa, are you okay?"

The boy asked eagerly as soon as he landed.

"It's okay. This is just a small injury. It's nothing."

The real demon shook his head and said it lightly, but his pale face and blood-stained body seemed to prove that the sudden change just now was not as easy as he said.

"Senior, are these demons puppets?"

At this time, Xu Ning on the side suddenly asked.

"It is a special puppet."

The True Demon's face was solemn: "In front of these puppets, they were all demon cultivators. They were branded since childhood and practiced a special magic soldier method. The magic seal was engraved on their bodies. When this method was practiced to a high level, they sealed their souls in their bodies and turned into demon puppets with only killing instincts."

"These demon puppets should be the remnants of the invasion of the demon world. The demon energy in this world is rich. The demon puppets live on demon energy and have no life limit... They should still be following the mission of the year, guarding this demon city and killing foreign invaders."

The True Demon explained slowly. Chu Mu looked at the pile of demon corpses not far away and couldn't help but understand a little.

There was only a wall separating them. There were countless evil spirits in the mountains of corpses and blood in the outside world. There were also mountains of corpses and blood in this city, but there were no evil spirits.

He thought that these evil spirits were hidden. Now it seems that this city, under the protection of these demon puppets, may have long been a forbidden place for those evil spirits.

"These demon puppets are only of the second and third levels, so there is nothing to fear."

"What you need to pay attention to are the remaining formations in the city. You have also seen the power of the bright moon just now."

"Follow me later, restrain your breath, and never leave the coverage of this flag..."

After giving some instructions, the real demon suddenly looked at Chu Mu, who was wandering in the sky.

"My friend, you should know something about formations."

"The inscriptions of these demon formations are different from what I have learned..."

The real demon didn't care about Chu Mu's escape just now, and his tone was still gentle.

Chu Mu suppressed his fear, tried to organize his words, and said it tactfully.

"This city was an important place for the demons in the past. Even if it encountered a disaster and the formations were broken, it must be full of dangers."

"My friend, you are familiar with the formations and prohibitions, which can be regarded as a guarantee. Observe carefully and tell me if there is anything wrong. After this matter is over, I will never treat you unfairly..."

The True Demon ignored Chu Mu's "humility" and directly ordered to make arrangements.

After some arrangements, under the cover of the banners, everyone continued to walk along the street under the leadership of the True Demon.

The True Demon's target direction was very clear.

But the road to the target in front was not smooth.

A demon city was the core place where the demon world invaded the immortal world. In those days, it must have been heavily guarded and full of large formations.

If it was intact, several people approached, even if the True Demon had the cultivation level of the Nascent Soul, he would probably not be able to escape the fate of being bombarded on the spot.

And with the damage of the demon city, it has been tens of thousands of years since it was once broken. Tens of thousands of years have passed. Under the influence of the power of time, how the countless broken formations and prohibitions will evolve is also uncertain.

The bright moon when we first entered the city was a clear proof.

For the True Demons, it was a deadly terror. For Chu Mu and his party, they were only at the Foundation Establishment stage. Even with the True Demons' protection, they were still scared every step of the way in this city.

No one would know whether an inconspicuous corpse on the roadside, a pile of ruins, or even a house, might hide some deadly traps.

For nearly a month, the people who had been groping forward in the city experienced many dangers. Only under the leadership of the True Demon did they stop in front of a ruined hall in the center of the city.

After a month of step-by-step scares, everyone was exhausted, but only the True Demon, standing in front of this hall, could not hide the heat in his eyes.

Chu Mu glanced at the True Demon without leaving a trace. This expression seemed to prove that the hall in front of him was the ultimate goal of the True Demon?

Chu Mu guessed that his eyes moved and also fixed on the hall in front of him.

The hall was majestic and towering into the clouds. Under the cover of the demonic energy, it was difficult to see its true height.

But in the middle of the hall, there was a crack several feet wide...

Following the crack, Chu Mu seemed to have thought of something, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

If he remembered correctly, this crack...

From the city wall to this hall?

Gululuo!

Chu Mu swallowed his saliva, his eyes were full of shock.

The crack stretched from the city wall to this hall, and it was extending deeper, with no end in sight.

In other words, with a powerful person, the crack stretched for at least thousands of miles?
