Dead End
Chapter 223 Dead End
Qin Mu shook off Yuan Shan and immediately checked around. He saw that the treasure ship was riddled with holes from flying swords and was leaking air from all directions.
Yuan Shan from the Yuangong Sword School was agile, leaping and stabbing, and his swordsmanship was very sharp and strange, but fortunately the hull was made of black iron and was very strong, so it withstood the attack of this swordsman master.
However, the cabin was leaking, slowing down the speed of the treasure ship.
In addition, the bow of the ship hit a huge ice sword, cutting a large hole in it. When flying at full speed, wind poured into the hull, making the speed much slower than in its heyday.
"If I could stop, I could fix it in half a day, but these guys won't give me half a day. Fortunately, we are not far from the ruins."
Just as he was thinking this, Hu Ling'er's voice came: "Sir, the bronze beast on the bottom of the boat has had its head cut off. Is it serious?"
Qin Mu was stunned for a moment, then said, "It's okay, it was just a little bumpy when we landed."
"How bumpy is it?" the little fox asked, blinking as he poked his head out of the cabin.
Qin Mu was puzzled and asked: "Why are you asking this?"
"We have no more medicine."
Hu Ling'er said crisply, "Master, didn't you notice? Our ship is falling and will land soon."
Qin Mu indeed saw that although the treasure ship was still flying forward, it had begun to slowly sink into the sea of clouds.
Qin Mu said decisively: "Ling'er, wake up that pig, it's his turn to work!"
The Demon King Dutian was furious: "Who are you talking about, you little brat? I clearly contributed!"
Hu Ling'er rolled her eyes at him and said, "I wasn't talking about you, but you are capable of doing this. The young master was talking about Fatty Long. Fatty Long, get up, don't sleep any more, the ship is about to land, the young master said it will be a little bumpy!"
Long Qilin slowly stood up and slowly crawled out of the cabin, lying on his belly. He was a little dissatisfied and said in a muffled voice: "A few days ago, you called me Long Da..."
"Can this thing still fly?"
Qin Mu was a little worried. He quickly swept through the remaining New Year's goods in the cabin and put them into the Taotie bag. He then held down the Demon King Dutian and put more into the Taotie bag.
The mouth of the Taotie bag is not big, and can barely fit one leg in.
Qin Mu was about to dismantle the body of the demon god, but the Demon King Dutian said angrily, "What are you doing? Don't dismantle it. My consciousness is now scattered in this body. If you dismantle it, you will also dismantle my consciousness... Can't you use this bag? Use your vitality to light up the mouth of Taotie..."
Qin Mu's eyes lit up, and his vital energy surged out, lighting up the Taotie pattern on the Taotie bag. Suddenly, the mouth of the Taotie bag became bigger and turned into a huge Taotie mouth, six or seven feet in radius, and swallowed the Demon King Dutian in one gulp.
“This is indeed much more useful.”
Qin Mu was surprised and delighted. He tied the bag around his waist, jumped onto Long Qilin's back with Hu Ling'er, and shouted, "Abandon the ship and go!"
A cloud of fire appeared under Long Qilin's feet and rose from the ship. The ship had already fallen through the clouds and began to land.
Long Qilin said in a naive voice, "Master, Sister Ling'er, you have gained weight again, right? You are much heavier than before."
"You are the fat one!"
The little fox said angrily: "Look at how fat you are now! The adults in the young master's family are very fierce. If you get fatter, you will be killed during the New Year!"
As he was speaking, the treasure ship crashed into a mountain with a loud bang and broke into pieces. Three alchemy furnaces exploded, and three more loud noises were heard. Broken pieces of black iron and black copper flew everywhere. The violent impact destroyed large tracts of forests. A rolling mushroom cloud appeared above the forests, and it was pitch black.
Hu Ling'er was startled and looked at Qin Mu: "Master, you just said that it will be a bit bumpy when landing?"
"Um."
Qin Mu nodded and shouted, "Fatty Long, if you don't run faster, you will be eaten before the New Year!"
Long Qilin shuddered and started running quickly. The fire cloud under his feet churned and became thicker, which greatly increased his speed. However, he was panting with exhaustion after running only ten miles.
At this moment, more than ten mirrors suddenly appeared around Long Qilin.
These mirrors rose from the hills below. Each mirror had an octagonal shape. They whistled around them. The mirrors grew larger in the wind, about ten feet in diameter, and about a hundred feet away from them.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Long Qilin's body sank, but at this moment a mirror flew up from below and blocked him.
Just as the dragon unicorn was about to run upwards, there was also a mirror hanging upside down above.
A sword light flew out from the mountain, shining on a mirror with a ding sound. The mirror bounced the sword light back and shone on another mirror.
Then the mirrors reflected each other, and from the hilltop below, sword lights flew over and were bounced off by the mirrors. There were more and more sword lights, and in an instant, the sword lights formed a net, becoming denser and denser!
And on the top of the mountain, more sword lights flew over and shot towards the mirrors.
"What a weird formation!"
Qin Mu felt a chill down his spine. This was a sword formation that used mirrors to set up the formation. The mirrors bounced back the sword lights, making them more and more dense with almost no loss!
"But it's easy to break this sword formation. All we have to do is break these mirrors."
Qin Mu raised his finger and the Shao Bao Sword slashed towards one of the mirrors. Suddenly, countless sword lights shot at the Shao Bao Sword, and ding ding ding sounds were heard, knocking the Shao Bao Sword down!
The sword swayed and fell into the forest below.
"His cultivation is much higher than mine. He is probably a magical person at the Six Unity Realm or the Seven Star Realm."
Qin Mu's heart sank slightly. He took out the scabbard and prepared to take back the Shao Bao Sword. The space that Long Qilin could move was getting narrower and narrower. He suddenly shook his head and roared. The roar was like thousands of thunders exploding in unison. The mirrors in the air shattered with a loud noise!
The extremely dense sword net lost its support and disappeared instantly.
A surprised voice came from the hilltop below: "What a powerful beast, its abilities are so high!"
When Long Qilin heard the word "beast", he couldn't help but get angry. He opened his mouth and spewed out a ball of fire towards the mountain below. A sword light from the mountain flew to the side, and it turned out that the man and the sword became one to avoid Long Qilin's attack.
The top of the mountain exploded with a loud bang, and rolling clouds of fire swept in all directions, separating the man and the sword, and smashing them into the mountains and forests, tumbling and rolling.
But the man was still not dead. He flew into the air with a bright mirror in front of him. With the light from the mirror shining brightly, the sword light swept towards him like a pillar.
Long Qilin ran away, leaving the sword light behind him.
However, the sword light was still faster than the dragon unicorn. When it caught up with them, the dragon unicorn's body shook and became bigger and bigger. It revealed its true form and turned into a giant beast over forty feet long. Its extremely thick tail swept backwards, smashing the sword light into pieces.
"What a huge beast!" the swordsman was stunned and cried out.
Long Qilin was furious, turned his head and opened his mouth, a flame blazing from his mouth, and a beam of light spurted out. The swordsman knew something was wrong, and immediately flew into the clouds to avoid it, only to see the beam of light so bright and blazing that it cut through the clouds with a whoosh.
A scream was heard in the air, and no one knew whether the swordsman was dead or alive. Then the sunlight began to shine through the thick clouds.
"Long Pang is so awesome!" Hu Ling'er praised.
Qin Mu looked at the cut clouds with a worried look on his face.
Among those who were chasing them just now, the ones with the highest cultivation level were Long Jiaonan and the frosty-faced woman from Li Qing Palace, masters of the Seven-Star Realm. The next ones were the monks, scholars and others, whose realm was between the Six-Harmony and Seven-Star Realms.
These people are the vanguard, and their role is just to test whether there are any experts around Qin Mu.
After all, Qin Mu is the Demon Cult's Demon Leader, so he must have protectors or other powerful beings around him.
Now, the Dragon Qilin has been tested.
The power of Long Qilin's attack is no longer something that Long Jiaonan and others can handle, which means that a stronger existence must take action.
Qin Mu had been running for his life and did not stop to fight with Long Jiaonan and others. His purpose was to make the hidden masters unable to guess whether there were any masters accompanying him. If they could not guess, they could only let Long Jiaonan and others test him, which would give him the opportunity to enter Daxu.
That way, it would be safest.
Now that Long Qilin has taken action, this opportunity has disappeared.
He sent out masters of the Demonic Cult to provide disaster relief, but he had no protectors with him.
"We are less than a thousand miles away from Daxu. Let's run!"
Qin Mu exhaled a breath of foul air and said in a deep voice: "The closer we are to Daxu, the safer we will be."
The dragon unicorn was extremely huge, and its speed was much faster than before. Although it was still potbellied and panting heavily, it ran very fast.
Not long after, the huge beast ran over a hundred miles under the clouds without encountering any pursuers. Suddenly, Qin Mu said, "Stop, and land in the mountain below."
The dragon unicorn stopped, shrank its body, and descended into the mountains below, coming to a valley covered with ice and snow. The ice and snow here were more than ten feet deep, and the surrounding mountains were covered in white. It was very desolate, with no village in front and no shop behind.
Qin Mu was surrounded by flames that melted the snow in the valley, leaving corpses everywhere at the bottom of the valley.
This should be an ancient battlefield where a bloody massacre once took place. Just now, he looked around with his Qingxiao Sky Eye and saw the overwhelming resentment here, so he stayed here.
"Right here, we will come and hunt down the existence of me, the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect, and see how they are stronger than me!"
Qin Mu became furious and his vital energy burst out. Countless corpses flew up and piled up. In just a moment, four bone altars were formed.
He took out the four demon statues hidden in the Taotie bag, placed them on four bone altars, took out the Hongshan Sect's talismans, stood on the altar and began to perform rituals.
The Hongshan School's talismanic command to summon ghosts and gods!
These four statues are the statues of the Demon God of Dutian. The Demon King of Dutian asked him to carve five statues of the Demon God to plot against those Demon Gods who disobeyed his orders. However, Qin Mu only summoned one, and the other four Demon God statues were not used.
"Brat, if you summon my real body, I can help you kill them all!" The vicious voice of Demon King Dutian came from the Taotie bag.
Qin Mu turned a deaf ear to it. Obscure devil language rang out from his mouth. The talisman started to rotate. More and more runes lit up on the first demon statue. Gradually, Qin Mu established contact with a demon from another world. He used himself as a bridge to communicate with the demon of Dutian.
"It's really the devil's way, hiding here to summon the devil."
An old voice came: "You often say that you are not a demon sect, what is the difference between what you are doing now and the demons?"
An old Taoist priest came over with only a whisk in his hand and a sword behind his back.
