I Want to Go Home

Chapter 228 I Want to Go Home

The scalps of Banchi Monk and others were tingling. As they ran wildly, they saw the mountain shaking violently, countless rocks flying, and black tentacles emerged from the rocks. Those were the roots of the demon in Kuji Ridge.

The Demonic Cult used black stone tablets to suppress demons and to suppress her roots. There were so many black stone tablets around the lake and the dead trees, and they were suppressing her leader.

At this moment, the black stone tablet that suppressed the demon at the head was pushed down by Monk Banchi and others. The demon was able to exert its power, which was so terrifying that even the mountains shook.

When her power was exerted, the stone tablets that suppressed her base flew up one after another and were shattered by her terrifying power!

"How can an ordinary tree demon have such powerful strength?"

The half-idiot monk cried out, "Is this tree demon deliberately suppressed by the Heavenly Demon Cult to harm people?"

Suddenly, several thick roots came towards them, and in front of the roots hung beautiful women, who giggled and said, "Want to leave? You saved me, and I haven't repaid you yet. You'd better stay and become one with me!"

Qiu Yue waved her sleeves, and countless insects flew out and pounced on the roots. These insects swelled up in the wind and became more than ten feet long. They pounced on the roots and bit them with a crunching sound, but the sharp teeth in their mouths were all broken and they could not bite at all.

Qiu Yue was shocked to see that tiny roots grew out of the navels of the women hanging on the roots, piercing the poisonous worms one by one. In an instant, only the shells of the poisonous worms were left, and the flesh and blood inside had all disappeared.

"The poisonous insects I raise can even bite off spiritual soldiers. These roots are harder than spiritual soldiers!" Qiu Yue exclaimed.

A root came behind them, Yuan Shan leaped up, holding the sword in his hand, jumped up and stabbed, piercing the woman on the root, and the sharp sword spun, cutting off the woman's head.

When the woman's head fell to the ground, it immediately withered and turned into a piece of black charcoal in the shape of a head, while the headless woman on the roots grew a new head.

Yuan Shan was also startled and wanted to cut off the roots, but suddenly another root came like lightning and pierced into his body from the back.

Yuan Shan hurriedly urged the sword to cut off the roots on his back, but suddenly his body shrank, and in an instant all his flesh and blood disappeared, leaving only a skin bag.

The other people who had been planning to rescue him hurriedly ran out of the canyon upon seeing this. Behind them, countless black tentacles were waving in the sky above Kujiji Ridge, and roots were climbing up the peaks on both sides, lifting up the real body from underground.

It was a huge creature like a ball of thread, with countless roots hanging down from the bottom. The huge creature made too much noise, which aroused the Xuanji crossbows on the peaks on both sides. The Xuanji crossbows sensed the aura of the monster and automatically wound up. Two extremely thick arrows shot out from the sky and hit the Kuji Ridge root monster that looked like a big black ball.

The monster let out a shrill scream, like countless voices overlapping each other, causing avalanches in the surrounding mountains.

Long Jiaonan and others were nearly caught up by those tentacles. Fortunately, the attack of the Xuan Ji crossbow caused the monster to feel pain, and it retracted its tentacles, allowing them to escape.

“These Xuanji crossbows can even kill celestial beings, so we will definitely be able to kill this goblin!”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly they saw the demon at the root of Kuji Mountain waving its tentacles towards the Xuan Ji crossbows on the mountain peak. With a loud bang, one of the Xuan Ji crossbows was smashed to pieces, and a huge bronze arm rolled down from the mountain.

Then, the Xuan Ji crossbow on another hill was also smashed to pieces by the monster at the root of Ku Ji Ridge.

Long Jiaonan and the others turned pale and quickly jumped onto the back of the giant red snake raised by Long Jiaonan. They fled forward madly and finally escaped from Kujiji Ridge. Looking back, they saw countless roots in the canyon climbing towards them like giant black pythons, and a heavy rolling sound was heard in the valley.

Obviously, the terrifying root monster was too big and heavy to fly, so it could only rely on its own roots to cling to the cliff and pull its huge body forward.

This monster was so huge that its body collided with the mountains on both sides when it moved, causing the peaks to shake.

"The Heavenly Demon Cult has really committed a great sin, raising such a huge monster to harm people!"

The half-idiot monk didn't know whether he was shaking with anger or fear, and angrily said: "How many people did they kill to raise this monster to this point! It's a pity that I am weak and can't defeat the demon and defend the way!"

Everyone knew that he had released the demon, and felt guilty, so they pushed the blame on the Heavenly Demon Cult. Everyone did not point it out, and said, "It is a blessing that we led the demon to Daxu and did not harm the people of Yankang."

"The people in Daxu are all abandoned people and evil demons who have been forced into a desperate situation. This evildoer has come to Daxu to stir up trouble, which can be regarded as exorcising evil and defending the way of righteousness."

The half-idiot monk's expression eased and he said, "The leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect deliberately made a noise to lure us into the valley. I'm afraid he wanted to use this monster to harm us. We are lucky people and have escaped. He must be very disappointed, right?"

He had just said this when suddenly the huge body of the Root Demon from Kujiji Ridge squeezed out of the canyon and rolled down from a great height, with countless roots dancing endlessly.

Everyone quickly took to the air, and the scholar Lan Yu said in a deep voice: "This monster can't fly, everyone can rest assured..."

At this moment, a bird's cry was heard, and a strong wind blew in his face. A large bird with golden wings flew over like lightning, grabbed Lan Yu's shoulders with its two claws, and carried him away.

The scholar Lan Yu felt pain in his shoulders, as both his shoulder blades were pierced by bird claws. He was about to use his magical powers to save himself when suddenly the giant golden-winged bird lowered its head, pecked his head with its beak, smashed his head into pieces, and carried his headless body away into the depths of the vast forest.

We’ve arrived at Daxu.

A lawless and barren land.

The strange beasts here don’t care whether you are a disciple of a famous family or not. In the eyes of the strange beasts here, there are only edible things and inedible things.

Qiu Yue said in panic: "Don't fly in the sky, walk on the ground!"

Everyone landed on the ground quickly. The monster from the Kuji Mountain was chasing them from behind. Everyone ran forward desperately. When they passed a pool of water, a big fish suddenly jumped out of the water, bit one of them and swung him around. It bit the young master to death and dragged the young master into the water.

The root monster from Kujiji Ridge attacked, and countless roots penetrated into the pool. The strange fish in the pool quickly jumped out of the water and followed Qiu Yue and the others. It ran very fast and soon surpassed everyone and ran to the front, making everyone stare in amazement.

After they ran for more than ten miles, they saw a row of trees being uprooted. They ran wildly, whistling away, trying to avoid the Kuji Ridge Root Monster that was coming from behind.

"Demon Lord, Daxu is very dangerous. Don't fly in the sky if you don't have anything to do."

In the distance, Qin Mu sat on the back of the dragon unicorn, looking very relaxed. He smiled and said, "We in Daxu have our own unique rules. You can fly in the sky if you want, but fly low and don't be too ostentatious. If you think you have enough strength, you can fly higher, but if those alien beast lords are unhappy, they will shoot you down and eat you."

The Demon King Dutian sneered and said, "Isn't it just the law of the jungle? I understand this rule. This is also the rule in Dutian."

"Also, don't go out when it's dark."

Qin Mu's face was solemn, and he said: "Unless you have the power of gods and demons, don't go into the darkness, otherwise it will be a dead end."

The Demon King Dutian laughed and said, "What's so scary about darkness? My Dutian has been destroyed to the point of complete darkness. Only a few places still have light and can still survive. In the darkness, I am more like a fish in water. At night, I will walk around for you to see."

Hu Ling'er rolled her eyes. In the eyes of the little fox, the Demon King Dutian was already dead.

Qin Mu continued, "There is no law in Daxu, so no matter who you meet, you must be polite. If you don't follow the rules, if you offend someone, you will be easily killed. The more lawless a place is, the more you must follow the rules. Also, there are some terrifying gods and demons in Daxu, some are sealed, some are suppressed, and some are living a comfortable life, so don't run around if you have nothing to do."

The Demon King Dutian was shocked: "Are there still gods and demons in this world?"

"Many. I have met several."

Qin Mu said: "As long as you master the rules of Daxu, Daxu is actually much safer than Yankang Kingdom. If you don't believe me, ask Ling'er."

The Demon King of Dutian looked at Hu Ling'er, who nodded repeatedly, agreeing deeply, and said, "Yankang is much more dangerous than Daxu. Young Master, you came out this time to gain experience in Yankang. We were not even considered to have gained experience in Daxu, which shows how dangerous Yankang is."

Suddenly, there was a loud noise like a landslide behind them. Qin Mu looked back and saw countless tentacles flying in the sky. A dark monster as big as a mountain was rushing towards them.

The naked women were hanging on the tentacles, laughing strangely.

"Why was the goblin from Kuji Mountain released? Who is so stupid?"

Qin Mu shuddered. The women hanging on the root monster of Kuji Mountain had already seen him and were rushing towards this side. Countless strange beasts were also rushing towards this side.

"This monster is really courting death. It's rampaging around in Daxu and could easily die."

Qin Mu shook his head: "Even the village chief wouldn't dare to be so reckless."

As he was speaking, the ground suddenly shook violently. A huge hand covered with golden hair stretched out from the ground. Flames were burning around the palm, and it pressed down hard towards the monster at the root of Kuji Ridge.

The root demon was slapped away like a black ball, and no one knew where it landed.

The strange beasts that were running for their lives stopped, looked back, and then returned to their own territories along the same route.

The Demon King Dutian stared with his eyes wide open, unable to speak for a long time.

Qin Mu comforted him, "It's okay, it's okay. This is how Daxu is. Some ancient sites often hide some strange things. It's okay to burn incense and worship gods in temples. I guess the goblin just now accidentally touched a certain relic and provoked the gods and monsters in the ruins."

The body of the Demon King Dutian was stiff. After a while, he exhaled a breath of foul air and said, "It's too dangerous here. I want to go back to Dutian..."

The demon king suddenly became excited, with four faces and four mouths, and several broken parts spewed out of his mouth: "This broken world of yours, how can it be called the mortal world? There are demons and monsters everywhere. I won't invade, okay? Let me go, I want to go home!"

Hu Ling'er advised: "Our Daxu is really safe, much safer than Yankang State. Follow the young master, and you will be fine."
