“Plop, plop, plop, plop~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~”
Distant, dense wings appeared in the line of sight of numerous sailors on the majestic cliff.
“That… That must be tens of thousands of them, which Demon Spirit is so fierce that it actually drew tens of thousands of cliff watchers!” Sailors walking in the jungle exclaimed in surprise.
Tens of thousands of cliff watchers, that spectacular scene right before their eyes!
“Great Leader, the atmosphere seems not very calm in this direction of the cliff,” a reconnaissance sailor said as he descended from the high altitude, riding a Fierce Falcon.
These sailors all knelt before a man who was wearing a blue sea beast coat, standing on an elevated rock, with a blade of grass in his mouth. Even though he had reached middle age, he still had a frivolous look.
“Hmph, which blind Demon Spirit dares to disturb the Demon Tomb at this time? Even if you must, don’t stir up such a commotion!” the Great Leader spat the grass out of his mouth, speaking unhappily.
“Hehe, several tens of thousands of Outer Demon Tomb Guardians, why should we even bother about them?” A young sailor laughed beside him.
“What do you know!” the No.3 Navy Great Leader glared at the young sailor, speaking, “I, Xu Kuang, might not regard this trash, but make sure you understand that there are millions of Demon Tomb Guardians along this whole cliff! If our large group tries to pass, tens of thousands? Maybe even millions might appear. I can wipe out tens of thousands in one go, but by the time I’ve done that, you bunch of rubbish will probably be gnawed down to bones. By then, you’ll just be buried alongside those Demon Spirits’ skeletons under the loose soil!!”
The young sailor shrank back after being scolded, not daring to speak again.
Xu Kuang jumped down from the rock, casually plucked and chewed another blade of grass.
As the Great Leader of the No.3 Navy Corps of the ninth division, for Xu Kuang, passing through the Demon Tomb was indeed not a problem, even his Dominator-level subordinates merely needed to be a bit cautious to pass easily.
However, besides these high-level Dominator-level navy generals, those Emperor and Monarch-level sailors would still find it quite troublesome.
This Demon Tomb cliff was very special. If it were a single Demon Spirit breaking into the cliff, then approximately a few thousand watchers would appear.
If a group of Demon Spirits attempted to break through, tens of thousands of guardians would appear.
And if the entire crew of the Navy Department attempted, it might draw millions of cliff guardians!
With such massive numbers, even with Great Leader Xu Kuang, who was a top-ranking Hai Tong himself commanding the 5,000 sailors, casualties were unavoidable, as his strength was still insufficient to handle a million cliff guardians.
“Xu… Great Leader Xu, that seems to be a Soul Pet Master…” the reconnaissance sailor reported back soon after.
“Oh? Someone else came here?” Great Leader Xu Kuang was surprised.
“This blind fool, disturbing the cliff recklessly, will definitely draw even more desperate guardians here. If we rush in now, we’ll just collide with these swarming guardians,” Deputy Leader Xing Feng said.
“Forget it, the density of cliff guardians in this place is higher than I expected. Let’s change location, we shouldn’t lose too many men on this Outer Island cliff!” Great Leader Xu Kuang spat out the grass in his mouth, tossed his sea beast coat, and walked towards another area of the cliff.
Seeing the Great Leader already leaving, others naturally gave up this spot and followed the Great Leader to scout for an easier cliff to cross.
After walking about ten kilometers, Great Leader Xu Kuang suddenly turned back to look at that densely populated, dark mass of a cliff.
“Who scouted this section of the cliff earlier?” Xu Kuang, chewing on the grass, asked.
“It was the Reconnaissance Team Leader of Squad Six, Lu Yuqi,” said the Grand Strategist.
Lu Yuqi was actually nearby. Hearing his name mentioned by both the Grand Strategist and the Great Leader, he was immediately filled with glory.
For a squad leader like him, gaining the appreciation of the Great Leader or the Grand Strategist could inadvertently elevate him to a General, which was a position that could have access to Dominator-level resources!
“Oh, kill him.” Great Leader Xu Kuang said casually. After speaking, the man swayed his coat and continued walking forward.
The Grand Strategist stood frozen for a moment: “Kill him? Are you saying to execute this Squad Leader Lu Yuqi? May I ask what his crime was…”
“Dereliction of duty.” Great Leader Xu Kuang snorted coldly, continuing to walk,” That cliff can gather 50,000 cliff watchers in ten minutes, and this fool actually told me it was the least dense area. If we had taken his advice, we’d suffer at least 500 more casualties.”
“In my corps, I do not permit such fools…”
Squad Leader Lu Yuqi stood frozen in place after hearing what the Great Leader had said.
But before Lu Yuqi could plead for Great Leader Xu Kuang’s forgiveness, he was already being dragged away by two navy soldiers.
Thousands of sailors watched in heart-palpitation as Squad Leader Lu Yuqi was dragged away like a dead dog, no one daring to speak.
“Send someone else to scout again. If we still can’t find a satisfactory entry point to Central Island, I’ll chop off your limbs, seal your Soul Sense and throw you into the sea to feed the fish.”
The Great Leader’s words echoed through the jungle ahead, and the members of the reconnaissance team had faces ashen.
…
The morning sun rose, a pale golden glow breaking through the mist, shining directly on the 5,000-meter-high cliff.
But suddenly, an alarming streak of red caught everyone’s eye!
“`
Blood red!!
The entire cliff was streaming with blood so bright it hurt to look at, even the white waterfalls washing down turned bloody red!
“Chu Mu, let’s keep moving forward,” Princess Jinrou whispered to Chu Mu. “The guardians of the cliff have already let you pass, there’s no need…”
Chu Mu listlessly lifted his eyes, gazing at the blood-stained cliff beneath his feet.
Around Chu Mu, there were still numerous scattered guardians of the cliff, too timid to come any closer.
“My intention was just to train,” Chu Mu looked at the scene dyed red with blood, at the golden sunlight shining on this cruel massacre of a cliff…
Princess Jinrou knew there was still resentment in Chu Mu’s heart, he needed to vent his emotions, but alas for these cliff guardians.
“Let’s find a place to rest for now,” Princess Jinrou suggested softly, her heart aching as she glanced at the bodies scattered everywhere.
Chu Mu nodded, already accustomed to bloodshed on his path, he didn’t feel how he used to.
He glanced at Ning, the Demon Tree Warrior, and the Ghost Dome King who were summoned later, and said, “You must be tired too, go back and rest.”
The battle had lasted a long time, the Demon Tree Warrior, Ghost Dome King, and Ning had all undergone thorough training, each reaching about fifty percent proficiency.
From here on, they would get ample training, at least so long as no higher-level guardians appeared on this cliff, continuing the slaughter would be pointless.
The vegetation on Demon Tomb Central Island had become scarce, with bare rocks, mountain peaks, and towering giant plants frequently in sight.
There was also a prohibition on Demon Tomb Central Island, and when Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou stepped into it, they distinctly felt a strong ancient spirit atmosphere.
“This is a treasure land,” the Fox Elder said. “Some soul pets with potential, if they devoutly cultivate here, might step into the Dominator level even without Xuan objects.”
Chu Mu, now uninterested in searching for Xuan objects, headed straight deeper into the island.
Noticeably, the creatures lurking and darting around became stronger!
Not all creatures on the Demon Tomb Central Island were at the Dominator level; at least when Chu Mu arrived, he saw many at the Emperor level wandering.
These emperors could only hide and survive like certain servants here, slowly seeking opportunities for advancement in this rich land.
Indeed, not long after their arrival, a Dominator-level creature fixed its eyes on Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou.
This was its territory; how could it possibly ignore intruders?
The Dominator stood on the very top of the bare mountain peak, looking down at Chu Mu and Princess Jinrou from afar.
Chu Mu raised his eyelids, facing this lord with eyes still cold from recent slaughter.
Atop the mountain peak was a Fierce Falcon Demon King, its leopard-like body, long tail, and pointed ears distinctive.
Feeling the cold gaze of Chu Mu, the Fierce Falcon Demon King, which could sense danger, gradually relaxed the claws buried in the rock.
Dangerous! Bloodthirsty!
The Fierce Falcon Demon King, one of the few demon spirits that could foresee danger, recalling the blood-drenched cliff from earlier, quickly realized that these intruders were not ones it could afford to provoke.
Initially looking down from a superior position, the Fierce Falcon Demon King, after meeting Chu Mu’s icy gaze, slowly recoiled, moving back behind the mountain peak, not daring to obstruct.
“Chu Mu, come here,” Princess Jinrou called, floating ahead to guide Chu Mu.
Chu Mu followed and discovered a clear spring.
Princess Jinrou landed at the edge of the spring, scooping up water with her pale hands.
Chu Mu squatted by the spring, glancing at Princess Jinrou.
“Just sit, I’ll help you wash,” Princess Jinrou’s eyes turned into crescents.
“I can do it myself,” Chu Mu scooped up the water and splashed it on his face.
It was very hard for Princess Jinrou, who couldn’t touch anything physically, to scoop up the water; she had to use mental control to gather the water in the palm of her hand.
And Chu Mu, his mind elsewhere, clearly had not realized this…
After splashing the cold spring water on his face, Chu Mu noticed Princess Jinrou pouting, looking like a neglected little girl, those mournful eyes making Chu Mu feel somewhat awkward.
“Alright, go ahead,” Chu Mu said.
“Hmph, there’s no chance now,” Princess Jinrou scattered the water back, drifting aside and muttering very softly, “I finally learned how to control water…”
