"Dad, what should we do now?" Li Yunxi asked curiously.
"Haha, Dad is going to meet an old friend." Li Mu said with a smile.
"Oh~" Li Yunxi nodded thoughtfully.
Then, Li Mu collected all the black nails scattered on the ground, and disappeared in an instant holding Li Yunxi's hand. After he disappeared, the people from other sects who were immobilized also resumed their actions. After looking around in confusion, they suddenly remembered that a crazy immortal was trying to kill them, and then they screamed and fled in all directions. In the blink of an eye, the top of the mountain was empty.
When Li Mu and his companion appeared again, they were already in a huge palace, which was surrounded by stone walls on all sides. Only some luminous pearls on the walls and the top emitted a faint light. This was the interior space of Black Mountain.
In the center of the palace is a circular platform wrapped in a light curtain.
Through the light curtain, one could vaguely see a huge snake-like creature coiled in the center of the platform. Seeing this, Li Yunxi couldn't help but nervously grasp Li Mu's hand.
Li Mu smiled at Li Yunxi, indicating that everything was fine. Then he waved his hand, and the light curtain disappeared. A huge black and gold dragon appeared in front of the two. Li Mu whispered to the dragon, "Cangqiong, wake up!"
This giant dragon is the demon beast of the Dark Forest, named Wu Cangqiong, and its true form is a black dragon. Because it is attacking the Celestial Immortal with the realm of a scattered immortal, it cannot be disturbed by the outside world during this retreat. If it quits halfway, it will surely die, so it not only arranged a powerful formation around itself, but also closed all its five senses.
Logically speaking, even if the outside world collapsed and the earth broke, it would not wake him up. However, at this moment, Li Mu's calm voice seemed to have a magical power that penetrated through layers of barriers and echoed in Wu Cangqiong's sea of consciousness for a long time.
Wu Cangqiong was suddenly enlightened and woke up from his training state. He suddenly opened his eyes, looked at Li Mu in disbelief and murmured, "Master!"
Just as Wu Cangqiong was stunned, he suddenly felt a violent and ferocious energy suddenly arise in his body, trying to tear it apart.
Wu Cangqiong was shocked and thought to himself, this is not good, the backlash of having his cultivation interrupted is coming!
"Haha~ I can see my master before I die, which is a wish come true!" Wu Cangqiong smiled bitterly. Then he shouted to Li Mu: "Master, please leave quickly, the backlash in my body can no longer be suppressed!"
Li Mu smiled indifferently, then teleported in front of Wu Cangqiong and pointed a finger at his forehead. The violent energy in Wu Cangqiong's body instantly calmed down.
Wu Cangqiong, who had already prepared himself for death, was dumbfounded. Attacking the celestial immortal with the realm of a wandering immortal was an act against heaven. Even with the forbidden technique left by Li Mu, if he failed, he would only die, and even the Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Realm could not save him. This was what Li Mu had said to him in person. And now, Li Mu actually suppressed the energy in his body with just a finger!
"Master, you..." Wu Cangqiong said in surprise.
Li Mu shook his head and said, "Why are you doing this? I told you all those years ago that the fate of the demon race in Xuantian Continent has come to an end. This is destined by heaven and cannot be changed by human power. You didn't listen and insisted on staying in Tianxuan Continent. In the end, you even used the Demon Spirit Eye that I left for you to break through in this dark forest, so that no matter how much you practice, you can't break through the last barrier!"
Wu Cangqiong said bitterly: "After all, they are the descendants of my demon race. I can't just watch them perish, right?"
"Well~ Since I'm back this time, I'll fulfill your wish!" Li Mu sighed.
"Master, you...what do you mean?" Wu Cangqiong asked in surprise.
"Of course, it is to change the fate of your demon clan." Li Mu said with a smile.
"Ah~? Didn't you just say..." Wu Cangqiong's mind was a little confused. Li Mu just said that the fate of the demon clan had come to an end and it was not something that could be changed by human power. Now he actually talked about changing the fate of the demon clan in a casual manner.
Thinking of this, Wu Cangqiong could not help but release his spiritual sense and check the dark forest. It would not matter if he did not check it. As soon as he checked it, Wu Cangqiong felt a chill in his heart. The dark forest was already filled with poisonous miasma, and there was no living creature. Moreover, he found that all the 81 black nails he had set up to suppress the demon spirit eyes had been pulled out! But then he found a clue. The demon beasts in the dark forest were actually imprisoned in another palace inside the Black Mountain.
Wu Cangqiong was very anxious and said to Li Mu, "Master, I have something to deal with first." After that, he teleported to the palace where the monster was imprisoned.
"Demon Saint! The Demon Saint is here!" The demons in the palace were overjoyed when they saw Wu Cangqiong suddenly appear.
Seeing that the monsters were safe and sound, Wu Cangqiong breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
"It was the damned human race who did this!"
"My third brother has been murdered, Master Demon Saint, you have to take charge of this for me!"
"That's terrible, that person is terrible!"
…………
All the monsters immediately started talking to Wu Cangqiong.
Wu Cangqiong frowned and shouted, "Silence!"
The monsters present immediately shut their mouths when they heard this. Wu Cangqiong took a deep breath and pointed at an old red flame tiger and said, "Lin Xiao, you tell the story!"
The red flame tiger named Lin Xiao walked out of the demon group and said to Wu Cangqiong, "Master Demon Saint, a while ago a powerful human came to the Dark Forest. As you know, under your teachings, our demons and humans have always kept to themselves. We were polite to that human and tried to persuade him to leave the Dark Forest. But who knew that the human would attack us without saying a word, and when he appeared again, he was controlled in this palace."
"Where did that person come from and what was his purpose?" Wu Cangqiong asked.
Lin Xiao shook its head and said, "I don't know. We haven't seen him since he abducted us. By the way, the flying ape named Wu Dong was just captured yesterday. He must know more, but he was injured too badly and hasn't woken up yet." Lin Xiao said, pointing at Wu Dong lying in the corner.
Following the direction Lin Xiao pointed, Wu Cangqiong looked at Wu Dong, then came to Wu Dong's side in one step, and exhaled a breath of immortal energy and injected it into Wu Dong's body.
Wu Dong slowly opened his eyes and saw Wu Cangqiong in front of him with a look of disbelief. He rubbed his eyes quickly and confirmed it with his spiritual sense. Then he said happily: "Master Demon Saint, have you made a breakthrough?"
Wu Cangqiong shook his head and said, "Now is not the time to talk about this. Xiaodong, do you know what happened in the Dark Forest?"
Wu Dong calmed down his emotions and told Wu Cangqiong everything he knew.
