This battle went from huge momentum to the final victory of one side, but it only took half an incense stick of effort.
After Lin Qingzhu and Nie Xiaoyu teamed up to stop the master of the Infinite Realm who controlled the blood wheel, Li Mu swept away the remaining two helmsmen of the "Blood" organization in the Infinite Realm with overwhelming force.
With his hands free, he immediately turned back, and the three of them worked together to easily end the battle between high-end combat forces.
As for the battle on the ground, there was not much suspense. After Liu Long, who had cultivated in the Infinite Realm, summoned the Martial Spirit Body, those low-level men in black robes were no match for him.
The members of the "Blood" organization were swept away by the Qinglong Yanyue sword, and were finally harvested one by one by the highly mobile Bai Jingting and the elusive Xiao Taowan.
The " trump card " that was originally intended to stop Dong Penglai's troops became a piece of cake for Li Mu and the others. Not only did they fail to complete the task, but they also lost their lives.
Since then, the six people have never encountered any decent resistance. Instead, they took the initiative to uncover several "Blood" organization scouts hiding in the shadows.
The situation was urgent, and Li Mu and the others showed no mercy when facing these demons in black robes. As long as they dared to resist at all, they would kill them all on the spot.
Just like this, they fought decisively all the way. After traversing more than a few hundred miles, a towering figure hidden under the clouds finally caught Li Mu's eyes.
"Is that Mount Fuji? I heard it is the most beautiful place in Penglai. Countless literati in the fairy world dream of sitting at the foot of Mount Fuji during the cherry blossom season, drinking a cup of fragrant tea and reciting poetry."
As the towering peaks continued to approach, Li Mu felt more and more the scenes depicted in those poems and ink paintings. Although the Mount Fuji in front of him could not be seen clearly, the majestic momentum and visual impact it displayed had completely convinced everyone.
"Mount Fuji is hailed as the 'holy mountain' by the people of Penglai. It has been a proud symbol of Penglai Island since ancient times. But in fact, it is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface. Every thousand years there will be a super event.
break out."
"Although I have not experienced it, according to the literature, every time Mount Fuji erupts, Penglai Island will be trapped in the predicament of not seeing the sun for several years, and it will become barren within a hundred miles, and it will take decades to recover.
It looks like it’s suitable for people to live in.”
"So the Penglai City you see is not what it looked like when the People's Republic of China was first founded. The old city was completely destroyed by the Mount Fuji eruption more than 700 years ago. Now this one has been rebuilt."
Xiao Taomaru was very familiar with the Penglai myth and history. After interpreting it, several others nodded. Lin Qingzhu even winked at Li Mu, meaning, "Such a good girl, hurry up and take her home."
The group of people climbed over a low hill and entered the boundary of Mount Fuji. This place is located at the southern foot of the main body of the mountain. There are dense coniferous forests everywhere. Li Mu used the Tiansheng Jue to the extreme, but still did not detect anything else.
Traces of the mythical great demon.
"It seems that the other four big monsters have either not arrived yet, or they will approach from other directions. We go straight up from this road, and in about three hours we will be able to enter the red maple cliff close to Mount Fuji, where we can
You can have a clear view of the northern and western hills."
The six-man team is already hundreds of miles ahead of the Yamata no Orochi. Even if Zuoqiu Taoist and the others fail to intercept it, it will still take at least half a day for this mythical great demon to reach Mount Fuji.
Li Mu and the others must make full use of this precious time difference and do everything possible to find out why the "blood" organization went to such great lengths to gather the five great demons in Mount Fuji.
The southern foothills were densely covered with forests, and it seemed to Li Mu that there were unlikely to be any clues. So according to Xiao Taomaru's plan, they should quickly cross the mountain road and go to the northwest foothills where there were a large number of temples and hunting grounds to investigate.
Time was tight and they had no time to formulate a more detailed plan. They followed Komomoru as their guide and dived into the depths of Mount Fuji.
The mountain road was steep, and it was quite hard for even the able-bodied people to walk. Although Li Mu could fly in the air, he still chose to use his feet to climb over the mountains because he was worried about his companions.
"Sister Qingzhu, do you feel anything?"
After walking for half a stick of incense, Nie Xiaoyu, who had been following the center of the team, suddenly approached Lin Qingzhu.
"What's wrong? Did you notice anything unusual?"
Lin Qingzhu was stunned at first, but soon grabbed Nie Xiaoyu's arm and asked softly.
Ever since he devoted himself to practicing the Holy Yuan Jue at Yi Shenghua's family, Nie Xiaoyu's perception has become very keen, and he can often detect even the smallest abnormalities.
"I can't tell what's abnormal, but every once in a while, I feel the ground beneath my feet shaking."
Nie Xiaoyu didn't seem to be very sure about her feelings. She frowned slightly and pursed her lips as soon as she finished speaking.
"It was shaken? Is Mount Fuji about to erupt? No, according to Miss Tao, a super eruption only occurs once every thousand years. It was only more than 700 years since the last eruption. The time is wrong.
"
Although Lin Qingzhu was puzzled, she still believed in Nie Xiaoyu's feelings. The two women quickly stepped forward and told the news to Li Mu and Xiao Taowan who were at the front of the team.
"Really? But if the purpose of the 'Blood' organization in gathering the five mythical monsters is really to trigger a major eruption of Mount Fuji in advance, then what are they planning?"
Xiao Momomaru was thoughtful, as if they had uncovered a small corner of the truth, but if they wanted to get a full picture, there were still many things that could not be explained.
"Here we are, here is the Red Maple Cliff."
The four of them kept exchanging their ideas, and before they knew it, they had arrived at their destination. A wide platform protruded from the mountain wall, and countless red maple leaves floated in the breeze in the mountain. It was so beautiful.
The view of harvest.
"Look, what's over there?"
As soon as he entered the Red Maple Cliff, Li Mu noticed a black figure in the north slowly moving towards Mount Fuji. When he took a closer look, he saw that it was a slug with a huge body.
"It's a rhinoceros divine beast. Legend has it that it doesn't have a single bone in its body and is immune to any physical attack. Even if its body is cut off with a heavenly weapon, it will split into countless small rhino dogs and finally reunite."
"Its attack method should be some kind of corrosive liquid secreted by the whole body. It is said that even the hardest ore in the fairy world cannot survive in this liquid."
Looking at the rhinoceros beast slowly squirming in the distance, in addition to the instinctive resistance to this soft and slimy creature, the information Xiao Momomaru said also gave Li Mu and others a headache.
"Why are the great demons in your Penglai mythology so terrifying each other?"
