Chapter 862: Chapter 729: The Upcoming Battle of the Peak Emperors
Si Ye, mysterious and unknown, permeated with the scent of death!
This Emperor Si Ye seemed to want to bring everything in Immortal City under his jurisdiction, including the vast and boundless skies!
Chu Mu gazed into the distance, and all he saw in his field of view was endless darkness!
For the first time, the terrifying power of the ruler of the dark night made Chu Mu truly feel how chilling and formidable a dark attribute creature could be. The mere power of transforming everything into a pitch-black night was enough to make countless Emperor-level creatures submit and fear.
“Young Master, if we don’t leave now, we’ll all have to stay here!” cried Fox Elder in a sharp voice. He had truly witnessed the power of Emperor Si Ye!
Chu Mu dared not delay any longer. He recalled the Little Hiding Dragon back to his Soul Pet Space and fell from the sky, allowing the Holy Pet Delicate Immortal Bird to catch him.
...After landing on the back of the Holy Pet Delicate Immortal Bird, Chu Mu hurriedly took out a healing potion from Red Hair’s Space Ring, jumped onto the bird’s claws, and used the healing potion to help it treat the torn wound on its abdomen.
The Bloodexamining Wolf Emperor’s tearing almost tore open a third of the Holy Pet Delicate Immortal Bird’s abdomen with long, narrow wounds coupled with an extremely strong blood-splitting effect. Blood was constantly spilling out, and if it wasn’t treated promptly with healing medicine, the blood loss would surely affect Delicate Immortal Bird’s speed.
The medicines were all stolen, so Chu Mu didn’t hesitate to use all of the Emperor Healing Medicines on the Holy Pet Delicate Immortal Bird’s wound. Due to the high level of the Delicate Immortal Bird, only a large amount of these intermediate Emperor medicines could have an effect.
After applying and ingesting the medicines, the wound on the Delicate Immortal Bird gradually stopped bleeding.
Chu Mu breathed a slight sigh of relief and subconsciously looked back.
However, the sight of boundless darkness made Chu Mu’s scalp tingle. The horrifying speed of engulfing darkness by the ruler of the dark night was astonishing. It was almost pressing close, and Chu Mu’s vision was left with nothing!
“Ziiii~~~~~~”
The Holy Binding Wind Spirit Pet came onto the back of the Delicate Immortal Bird just in time and raised the golden wind force, granting it onto the holy wings of the bird!
With the enhancement of this wind type skill, the speed of the Delicate Immortal Bird noticeably increased, as it transformed into a ray of immortal light, speeding off into the distance!
“Don’t get caught in its darkness, your speed will be severely diminished!” Fox Elder reminded them at this moment.
Chu Mu’s Night Thunder Dream Beast possessed the eighth-level skill, Si Ye’s Advent. However, this terrifying dark dominion was thousands of times stronger than Si Ye’s Advent. It even had the effect of reducing the enemy’s speed!
“Binding Wind Spirit, use your wind-type skills to sweep them off!” Chu Mu, unable to see anything, was consumed by an indescribable fear of the approaching darkness. The true Si Ye Domain, Chu Mu had witnessed it today!
The Holy Binding Wind Spirit Pet chanted a mantra, and between lifting its hands, it transformed hundreds of golden Sickles of Wind!!
The range of the Holy Pet’s Sickle of Wind was quite astonishing, with each one nearly reaching a hundred meters. All of them were suspended in the air within a radius of several kilometers around the Holy Binding Wind Spirit Pet!
“Ziiiii~~~~” The Binding Wind Spirit let out a long chant, and with a pointer of both hands, hundreds of golden Sickles of Wind swept towards the dark sky!
The hundred-meter-long golden Sickles of Wind shattered the darkness, allowing Chu Mu to see the silhouette of the Catastrophe Spider Emperor and the Ghost Family Giant. Both giants had vicious and ugly faces, filled with evel energy, eager to swallow the two Holy Pets directly into their stomachs to turn them into food.
However, no matter how many thick layers of darkness were broken open by the golden Sickles of Wind, Chu Mu, who had cast his heterochromatic eyes, still could not see the real face of Emperor Si Ye!
Gradually, hundreds of Sickles of Wind disappeared into the dense darkness as they sped away. A moment later, Si Ye slowly filled the torn-apart area, as if it was an insignificant wound healing.
For some reason, as the Holy Pet Delicate Immortal Bird’s flying speed became even faster, Chu Mu still felt that the ruler of the dark night was relentlessly approaching. Was this merely an illusion brought on by the fear of darkness, or was Emperor Si Ye really accelerating the speed of devouring everything with the night?!
The Binding Wind Spirit did not stop its wind-type skill attacks. Keep consuming spiritual power to create a giant storm into the darkness, the nightmarish demonic steps of the darkness finally began to slow down a bit.
Slowly, the distance between them grew further, and when Chu Mu looked back, he no longer felt as if his gaze was trapped in the darkness.
However, even after finally escaping, Chu Mu’s entire body was still soaked with cold sweat!
Looking at Si Ye that almost shrouded half of the vast and complicated Immortal City, Chu Mu felt his own strength once again diminish. In such a battle, if he did not transform into a half-demon, Chu Mu did not know how many seconds he could even survive.
…
After escaping from Emperor Si Ye’s pursuit, the Holy Pet Delicate Immortal Bird did not stop immediately but continued to fly towards the high altitude of Immortal City. It seemed that only when it reached an altitude of ten thousand meters would the Delicate Immortal Bird truly feel safe.
Upon reaching a certain height, the entire Immortal City should have been in full view.
However, Chu Mu found that Immortal City was shrouded in a dense, decaying aura, like dark clouds covering it.
As they ventured deeper into the Immortal City, they noticed that the distant landscape was somewhat hazy. At this height, the decaying atmosphere of Immortal City was overwhelming, enveloping everything.
“Chirp~~~~~~~~”
The Delicate Immortal Bird’s wings flapped gently, as it spewed a mass of cloud gas from its mouth, which slowly spread out…
As the cloud gas took shape, the Delicate Immortal Bird landed on it, appearing somewhat weary as it stood there.
Throughout their escape, the Binding Wind Spirit had hardly stopped unleashing wind type skills, seemingly exhausting itself. It floated to one side, beginning to rest and recover.
Chu Mu also jumped onto the cloud gas exhaled by the Delicate Immortal Bird, slightly sighing in relief.
Regardless, they managed to deal with one behemoth-level creature, which was a consolation. The headache was that Emperor Si Ye was overwhelmingly powerful. If they couldn’t wake up the Dawn Palm Princess, only the Holy Pet Di Sheng Flower and the Holy Pet Wanzhao Beast would be capable of handling it.
However, the defector girl had certainly ambushed numerous experts at the Demon Suppression Tablet positions of the Wanzhao Beast and Di Sheng Flower, making it almost impossible to awaken them.
“Young Master, the longer we drag this out, the more behemoth-level creatures there will be. Judging from the current situation in Immortal City, Emperor Si Ye is the leader of the behemoths. Including the Catastrophe Spider Emperor and Ghost Emperor, there are three behemoth-level creatures present. In all likelihood, there should only be these three. Even if there are more, it shouldn’t exceed one.”
“Yeah.” Chu Mu nodded. If there were other behemoths in Immortal City, they would surely follow Emperor Si Ye to hunt down the Holy Pets. Therefore, there was a greater probability that there were only these three behemoths. Of course, a conservative estimate would be four because the power of behemoth-level creatures was also growing!
“We cannot afford to waste any more time. After awakening one or two more Holy Pets, Young Master will have to take a risk.” Master Li said.
Chu Mu knew that it would be difficult for him to awaken all the ancient Seven Diagram Sacred Beasts because not every warrior could complete their missions.
Furthermore, Chu Mu was alone and had limited strength. It was also very difficult for him to attend to every Demon Suppression Tablet scattered at different locations. Awakening two Holy Pets was already quite an achievement. Now he could only count on the other warriors.
In a few days, all the warriors should have arrived at their respective Demon Suppression Tablets. How many Holy Pets could be awakened would depend on the days that followed.
Therefore, from now on, Chu Mu and the two Holy Pets could only quietly observe the situation and recuperate while waiting for new Holy Pets to appear. They were preparing for a real battle between peak Emperors!
The Holy Pet camp would inevitably clash with the behemoth camp in a great battle. At that time, Chu Mu would have to join the fray between the Holy Pet and behemoth camps without holding back!
It would be best if they could gain a significant advantage upon joining. If Chu Mu joined and their forces were still evenly matched, it would be challenging to determine the outcome of the battle in Immortal City.
…
Holy Temple Spring Pool
At this moment, the entire spring pool resembled a pool of ink, so dark that nothing could be seen.
The young Soul Emperors didn’t know what had happened. They only saw the Bloodexamining Wolf Emperor die from the Binding Wind Spirit’s ten-meter Wind Cave, before the spring pool was engulfed in darkness.
Moreover, almost everyone could feel a chilling, terrifying dark aura seeping from the spring pool, inexplicably sending chills through their bodies.
With a puzzled expression, the young Soul Emperors didn’t have much understanding of the powerful Soul Pets in Immortal City.
However, the more established Soul Emperors’ faces turned pale at this point!
Because they knew what creature had broken free from the seal in Immortal City!
“Si Ye… Emperor Si Ye, the seal ranked in the top twenty!!!” Li’s Soul Emperor slowly uttered these words after a long time.
Immortal City had stood for thousands of years. Creatures sealed within the top ten were disasters to humans throughout millennia. Their seals were reinforced again and again, making them nearly impossible to break. As a result, most of the creatures sealed within had either aged or died under the ravages of time.
Therefore, creatures sealed within the top twenty of Immortal City were already the most powerful, reaching a realm where they were virtually unstoppable!
They could hardly imagine where the conspirator got such astounding ability that they could release creatures sealed within the top twenty!
How much hatred did this conspirator have towards the World City to try and destroy a bastion of human civilization that had lasted for thousands of years!
