Back in the real world, Li Muyang opened his eyes and sat silently in the cabin of the flying boat.
His brows were tightly furrowed, shocked by the scene he had seen in the game.
According to his speculation, the time dimension of the time-limited game was almost parallel to the real world.
Various clues indicated that a real Heavenly Origin Dynasty existed, likely just across the sea of mist.
After all, in that chat group, someone had offered a bounty for Master Qingye’s head, and the bounty issuer, Heart Star VI, was very likely to be in the Heavenly Origin Dynasty and related to the Blood Demon Sect.
Li Muyang guessed that there were continents on both sides of the sea of mist, but due to the barrier of the sea, contact between the two continents was lost.
This meant that Master Qingye and Fairy Liuli of the Heavenly Origin Dynasty might very well exist in the same era as Li Muyang.
But now, in the world of the Heavenly Origin Dynasty, the southwestern mountains had seen the emergence of an ancient evil god… This was somewhat explosive.
Could the place called Lijiang County in the Heavenly Origin Dynasty be the Myriad Great Mountains from thousands of years ago?
Li Muyang had personally experienced how strange and terrifying the ancient evil gods of the Black Cloud Village were in the game.He even suspected that the end of the mythological era and the turmoil of the dark age were all related to this group of ancient evil gods.
But now, thousands of years after the dark turmoil, the ancient evil gods hadn’t died out?
They still existed in the world?
This is unscientific!
If such terrifying ancient evil gods were wandering in reality, not to mention anything else, the entire Lijiang County would not possibly have any living people!
Li Muyang pondered for a moment and then re-entered the game.
This time he was more cautious.
Even without entering the illusion, Li Muyang kept his Spiritual Vision Eye active.
But until the city illusion attacked and Li Muyang and Fairy Liuli were pulled into the illusion, he saw no sign of any ancient evil gods.
However, after waiting for several minutes inside the illusion, at the same time he had seen the Candle Bone God before, he successfully used his Spiritual Vision Eye to glimpse outside the illusion.
In the mountain forest, a towering evil shadow slowly drifts by.
The at least ten-thousand-zhang-tall terrifying shadow was like a curtain stretched across the land.
Even though it was just drifting by from afar, the immense pressure of looking directly at its figure nearly suffocated Li Muyang.
“There’s no mistake…”
Li Muyang murmured to himself.
In a moment of distraction, he was ambushed by the Nine-Armed Bodhisattva again, and a pale woman’s arm burst out from his chest.
【You died. Game Over】
The bloody system failure popup appeared in his field of vision.
Li Muyang, forcibly ejected from the game and back in the cabin, opened his eyes, but this time he didn’t immediately re-enter the game for revenge.
The Nine-Armed Bodhisattva, this rural wild god, was no longer so important at the moment.
Compared to the terrifying ancient gods of those ancient times, the Nine-Armed Bodhisattva, a local deity from the countryside, is just a small shrimp, not worth mentioning.
“If Lijiang County of the Heavenly Origin Dynasty is the former Myriad Great Mountains, and the ancient gods of Black Cloud Village have not perished, then how has the Heavenly Origin Dynasty continued to exist?”
From the scene in the game just now, the terrifying existence of Candle Bone God wanders through the forests, yet the creatures and living beings in the mountains are completely unaffected.
It seems that only Li Muyang could see the evil god at that moment.
“Perhaps these ancient gods do exist, but they are temporarily unable to harm the present world?”
Li Muyang once again loads the game, following the same process, opening his Spiritual Vision Eye and looking ahead.
Then he is pulled into the illusion of a city celebrating the new year by the Nine-Armed Bodhisattva.
This time, with preparation, Li Muyang focuses intently on the direction in which the Candle Bone God appeared.
He saw with his own eyes how the void in that area seemed to twist and shake, the air rippling like water waves.
The terrifying and unpredictable Candle Bone God emerged from the void, dragging a shroud as vast as the sky across the heavens.
Birds flying through the forest passed through the tail end of the enormous shroud unharmed.
Although this terrifying evil god exists, it is merely a phantom incapable of harming the living beings in the present world.
Seeing this, Li Muyang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
“This makes sense.”
Although the ancient gods still exist, they currently do not have the ability to harm the present world, which is why the Heavenly Origin Dynasty, as well as the countless beings of Lijiang County, can still survive.
“However, this game is actually related to the ancient gods?”
“That’s a new discovery.”
Li Muyang closes his eyes and enters the game interface once again.
《The Call of the Mountains》
——the game title is very conspicuous.
“…Could the disappearance of the old general be related to the evil gods as well?”
Li Muyang clicks his tongue and enters the game world.
He does not want to see the evil gods of Black Cloud Village manifest in the present world.
Even though the Heavenly Origin Dynasty is separated from his continent by a sea of mist, if there is any sign of the ancient gods reviving, he must find a way to nip it in the bud.
In the mountains of Lijiang County, Li Muyang travels with Fairy Liuli.
The familiar illusion once again drags Li Muyang into it, but through multiple game loads, he has gradually grasped the assassination pattern of the Nine-Armed Bodhisattva.
In the city bursting with fireworks, this time Li Muyang does not pay attention to the terrifying evil god drifting in the distance.
He opens his Spiritual Vision Eye and looks directly at the illusion before him.
At the moment he deliberately exposes a flaw, a chill suddenly rises from Li Muyang’s heart.
And at the instant this chill arises, Li Muyang activates time stop.
In the city where time has stopped, Li Muyang leaps several zhang away.
At his original position, sharp claws emerge in the air.
——That evil being, it came through from the void.
Li Muyang decisively strikes.
“Hit!”
Another dazzling blue light streaks across, and the Dharma-Annihilation Wheel easily severs the arm that emerged from the air.
【Nine-Armed Bodhisattva’s Arm -1】
Amidst the wailing of resentment and pain, the illusion around Li Muyang collapses, and he and Fairy Liuli return to reality once more.
Seeing this, Fairy Liuli is surprised again.
“Lord Wuming, you…”
Does this Lord Wuming really have the ability to foresee danger?
Every time, he predicts the danger that comes just right…
Fairy Liuli frowns and says, “This Nine-Armed Bodhisattva appears and disappears unpredictably, and I don’t know how to capture it.”
Fairy Liuli, who has been traveling with him, now can’t even find a target to attack.
This feeling of having nowhere to start obviously makes her uncomfortable.
Li Muyang smiles and reassures her, “Fairy, don’t worry, there will be plenty of chances for you to take action later.”
Saying this, he glances at the immortal sword behind Fairy Liuli.
The last time in Loushan City, his knowledge was shallow, and he could not see the extraordinariness of this immortal sword.
But having seen a real immortal weapon, Li Muyang is now different from before.
Therefore, he recognizes at a glance that this Liuli immortal sword is no less than the Startling Swan Immortal Sword.
Moreover, this immortal sword fully recognizes Chu Qingxue as its master, with both the person and the sword in perfect harmony, their hearts and intentions clear as the sword itself.
Once unleashed, the full power of the immortal sword in Chu Qingxue’s hands is not to be underestimated.
This is probably why the Nine-Armed Bodhisattva keeps attacking Li Muyang but does not dare to approach Fairy Liuli.
——For such evil spirits, the oppressive feeling brought by an immortal sword that automatically senses and kills enemies is too strong.
Li Muyang is slightly envious.
Tsk… He wonders when he will be able to tame the Startling Swan Immortal Sword and make it obediently acknowledge him as its master.
Although he has the immortal sword in hand, he cannot fully unleash its true power.
Even if he can forcibly control part of its power with the immortal sword, it’s like a melon that is picked by force.
It quenches thirst, but it’s not sweet!
Li Muyang still wants both thirst-quenching and sweetness.
