Chapter 1297 - Chapter 1297 Chapter 1161 Light Web Calamity Approaches

Chapter 1297: Chapter 1161: Light Web, Calamity Approaches Chapter 1297: Chapter 1161: Light Web, Calamity Approaches Everyone looked at Chu Mu, their eyes occasionally flicking around the ice room warily, wishing to communicate through mental powers.

Chu Mu shook his head but winked at Ye Qingzi.

Ye Qingzi glanced around and said, “Chu Mu, are you being overly cautious?”

“Little Mo Xie indeed felt a strange presence just now, it might have been a misperception,” Chu Mu explained.

Mu Qingyi breathed a sigh of relief and said, “You really scared me just now.”

While they were talking, suddenly someone walked into the ice room from outside.

The newcomer was a woman, who walked down the ice crystal staircase and surveyed the group before speaking, “My father has sent me to inform you that this district of the city has been sealed off. It is said that the Demon Spirit has fled to this area.”

The appearance of this woman caused some surprise for Chu Mu, as she was the same woman named Xiao Tan who had previously accompanied Yong Chong.

Chu Mu indeed did not expect her to be Xiao Leng’s daughter, and it was good that he had not completely targeted her at that time; otherwise, he might have accidentally killed her.

Bai Yu also looked at her with a hint of surprise before maintaining silence.

After saying this, Xiao Tan turned and left, leaving Chu Mu and the other three in silence once again.

“Little Mo Xie?” Chu Mu turned his head and glanced at Little Mo Xie on his shoulder.

Little Mo Xie’s silver eyes scanned the surroundings of the ice room and then nodded at Chu Mu.

“It has truly left,” Chu Mu exhaled.

Mu Qingyi, Ye Qingzi, and Bai Yu looked around again but still discovered nothing. Then they spoke up, “What exactly was that thing just now?”

“It should have been that Demon Spirit Leader; it has now left,” Chu Mu said.

“Demon Spirit Leader? We couldn’t sense or see it at all, could it be a Dominator-level?” Mu Qingyi suggested.

Chu Mu nodded, agreeing that this possibility was highly likely.

He remembered Fox Elder mentioning that Dominator Level Demon Spirits were as renowned as the five legendary Undying existences; such creatures were rare in the world, and possessing one could make one invincible among the Group of Heroes.

“We couldn’t even see that guy, and if we were attacked, we would have no means to defend ourselves,” Mu Qingyi said with some worry.

If it hadn’t been for Little Mo Xie being right beside Chu Mu, no one would have realized the presence of a Dominator-level Demon Spirit near them just now.

“Chu Mu, could the people at the auction also know about the existence of a Dominator-level Demon Spirit?” Ye Qingzi inquired.

Ye Qingzi’s question jogged Chu Mu’s memory; according to General Peng’s intentions, there should be Experts guarding the Demon Spirits in the auction, ensuring their complete safety. If a theft were to happen, then it was very likely due to the awareness of an extremely powerful Demon Spirit’s emergence.

An Emperor-level Demon Spirit was already approaching the price of an Intermediate Lord Level profound artifact, so the value of a Dominator-level Demon Spirit, a creature rarely seen to the extreme, was even more indescribable.

“We’ll know if we go outside and look,” said Chu Mu.

…

This district of the city had been completely sealed off because the president had received information that a Dominator-level Demon Spirit had appeared in this area.

The fifty subordinates dressed in uniform black-brown clothes had spread out to various positions across the entire district. They placed deep blue gemstones on the ground, then stood still and began to recite Spells.

The deep blue gemstones emitted beams of light that shot straight towards the heavens, almost reaching the clouds.

Fifty Dark Brown Hunters, fifty beams of light–once these beams entered the sky, they began to parallelly branch into countless secondary light paths, linking up with the other fortynine main beams.

Each main beam branched out into fortynine secondary light paths, causing the entire city district to be enveloped in a crisscrossing web of light!

“What’s going on, why is this area being sealed off!!” shouted a Dominator Level Soul Pet Master, visibly enraged.

Having said that, the Soul Pet Master immediately controlled his Beast Soul Pet to charge towards the sky, trying to shatter the web of light.

However, the moment the Beast-System Sovereign touched the Light Web, the deep blue Light Net transformed into countless arc-like binding lights that tightly ensnared the Dominator-level creature!

Chu Mu saw the Beast-System Sovereign being effortlessly restrained from his position at the Xiao Residence, the spectacular Light Web truly horrifying and impressive.

“It seems that the Commerce Association must be aware of the existence of the Dominator Demon Spirits, otherwise they wouldn’t go to such lengths. The consumption of such a binding array is enormous; it’s unlikely that the Dominator Demon Spirit will be able to escape,” Master Li said.

“The people from the Commerce Association made preparations so quickly, as if they knew the Demon Spirits would come,” Mu Qingyi said.

At this moment, Master Li’s eyes flashed, as if he had realized something, and he said, “I think it’s very possible that the people from the Commerce Association knew about the Dominator Demon Spirit from the start. They released information to capture those Emperor-level, Monarch-level, and Commander-level Demon Spirits, gathering them in one city, luring the Dominator Demon Spirit to appear.”

“Why not just surround the Dominator Demon Spirit directly; why bother with all this trouble?” Chu Mu asked.

“In the wild, it is simply impossible to capture a Dominator Demon Spirit. If they can lure it into a human city and then prepare early to capture it, the chance of success will be much greater,” Master Li said.

“The people from the Commerce Association could have set a trap as soon as the Dominator Demon Spirit went to save the others, why let it successfully rescue the other Demon Spirits?” Mu Qingyi asked with some confusion.

“I think this is where the Commerce Association is cunning,” Ye Qingzi glanced at the Little Demon following her and said. “They deliberately let the Dominator Demon Spirit save the others, making those Little Demons a burden to it, thus making it even more difficult for the Dominator Demon Spirit to leave. After all, if a city lock-down order was issued, it would also be hard for the Little Demons to escape.”

A Light Web had been set up in the sky, and on the ground, a group of Dark Brown Hunters searched in a carpet-style operation. Most importantly, the scope of the Light Web seemed to be constantly shrinking, which meant the range of activities for the Dominator Demon Spirit would get smaller and smaller.

“These people, they’re conducting house-to-house searches,” Master Li observed, looking at a nearby courtyard.

There was a Dark Brown Hunter at that courtyard’s location, seemingly inspecting the entire courtyard, including the people in the Dominator courtyards.

Many people voiced their dissatisfaction, but the Commerce Association’s influence was not to be underestimated, especially since all fifty Hunters were Dominator-level powerhouses, making the disgruntled people hold back their anger.

“I don’t know what got into that old fox Lin Li, not only to blockade the area but also to carry out checks,” Xiao Leng said slowly as he walked out, speaking with extreme dissatisfaction. “Each of those Dark Brown Hunters is wearing a ring that can sense ghostly creatures. Bai Yu, you still have an Emperor-level Demon Spirit on you, which could be a bit of a problem.”

Chu Mu didn’t think it was a bit of trouble, but rather a big one.

The Emperor-level Demon Spirit in Bai Yu’s possession was the one from the fierce battle with the Demon Man in Wen City. If its presence was discovered, Bai Yu’s identity as a Demon Man could also possibly be revealed. Unfortunately, the Commerce Association’s people were now conducting a completely tight search, and it seemed that no one would be able to escape inspection. Chu Mu believed that the President of the Commerce Association would stop at nothing to obtain a Dominator Demon Spirit.

Chu Mu and Bai Yu had killed a large number of Wen City’s Dominator-level powerhouses, a serious crime indeed. Wanted notices and bounties had already appeared in various cities. If their identities were exposed, the experts from Wen City would surely spare no effort in eliminating them.

“We only have to release that Demon Spirit; otherwise, we won’t be able to explain ourselves,” Bai Yu said.

“Release it… and just let the Commerce Association benefit for nothing? That’s equivalent to a medium-grade Dominator,” Xiao Leng paused, then continued, “No problem, just say you captured it yourself. If worst comes to worst, put it up for auction at their auction event. I doubt they would dare to forcibly take it.”

Bai Yu glanced at Xiao Leng, hesitated for a while, and finally explained the true origin of the Emperor-level Demon Spirit through Mental Sound.

After hearing this, Xiao Leng stood there in shock, looking at Bai Yu with disbelief!

All this time, Xiao Leng had assumed Bai Yu had found the Emperor-level Demon Spirit somewhere else in the mountains. Unexpectedly, the Emperor-level Demon Spirit in Bai Yu’s possession was the very one the Demon Man fought over with the powerhouses of Wen City, and the Silver Demon that had been the talk of the town was none other than Bai Yu!

Bai Yu briefly explained how he became a demon and how Bai Jinrou lost her spirit while trying to awaken him. After listening, Xiao Leng couldn’t help but feel moved, finding it hard to imagine all the things Bai Yu had gone through after he left New Moon Land…

“That… that means we’re in big trouble now,” Xiao Leng came back to his senses, quickly realizing the Dark Brown Hunters were about to reach the Xiao Family.

Bai Yu nodded, the only solution now being to let go of the Emperor-level Demon Spirit, or they really wouldn’t be able to explain themselves.

“Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle~~~~~~~~~~~”

Suddenly, numerous arc-like lights resembling electric arcs appeared on the magnificent Light Web, emitting a sizzling noise.

Looking up, one could see those flashing arcs forming a silhouette resembling a person. The figure was slender and tall, but its body was completely transparent. If it wasn’t for those arcs outlining a shape, no one would notice a creature there!

“It’s appeared!! The President’s Demon Spirit has appeared!!!”

“There it is! It’s trying to break through the Light Web and escape!,” the Dark Brown Hunters called out.

Only then did Chu Mu and others finally get a glimpse of the general form of the Dominator Demon Spirit, their faces showing astonishment.

“Just now… just now was that thing right beside us?” Bai Yu said, transfixed.

…

From atop a high pavilion outside the city area, Lin Li watched intently the position where the arcs of light were appearing.

“It has to be mine, it must!!” Lin Li gazed at the silhouette in the distant sky, his eyes ablaze with fervor.

For this Dominator Demon Spirit, Lin Li had made ample preparations and did not hesitate to spend a vast amount of profound artefact resources to form such a colossal Light Web. Therefore, he must obtain this Dominator Demon Spirit by any means!
