Chapter 875
Chapter 875 A Sky Gate
Upon hearing that, Li Mu got angry. “What? Did you let him escape? Why didn’t you eat him? You like eating immortal practitioners very much, don’t you?”
The stupid dog said, “Yeah, I do like eating immortal practitioners, but I don’t like the one who came out of the giant’s asshole and smelt like shit.”
“Huh?”
Li Mu froze for a moment.
Then, he understood what the stupid dog meant.
“It seems that the lord of the Wind Clan chose the wrong path to escape. Did he actually run along the demonic giant’s intestines and come out of its ass in the end? As a high-level master in the Deity Realm, he escaped from the giant’s anus. That’s…
“If the news spread, it would be a great shame on the Wind Clan.
“Unfortunately, he’d managed to escape.”
“People say that dogs love eating shit and can’t change their nature. The lord of the Wind Clan reeked of shit, so you should have pounced on him while drooling, right?” Li Mu said discontentedly.
The stupid dog said angrily, “Why don’t you show me by taking a big bite of shit?”
Li Mu burst out laughing. “Let me tell you something. You’d better be more respectful to me from today on. Didn’t you see that? I’m more powerful now. I’ve beaten the lord of the Wind Clan half to death. Do you believe I can throw you into a hot pot and eat you at any time?”
On hearing that, the stupid dog chuckled. “You took the words right out of my mouth! I want to tell you that I’ve become smarter and stronger too.”
Li Mu was surprised.
He observed the stupid dog carefully and found that the latter really seemed a little different than before.
However, he couldn’t tell what the difference was.
He thought for a moment and then started laughing. Pointing to the 10,000-meter-tall demonic giant behind him, he said, “You probably don’t know that this ancient god is my puppet now.”
He controlled the ancient god with his mind, and the ancient god reached out and grabbed the dog with its hand.
“Human pet, are you trying to make trouble?”
The stupid dog growled and swung his paw through the air, producing some strange runic lines and various strange patterns, leaving numerous marks in the air that looked like those on a beach.
As his paw ripped through the air, a beam of milky white divine light suddenly appeared out of thin air, and he directly escaped from the palm of the ancient god.
“What?”
Li Mu was really surprised this time.
“The palm of the ancient god is not only huge, but it also contains the ancient god’s physical strength and the power of runes and laws. It is like a huge cage that can imprison anyone who gets caught by it. However, the stupid dog has managed to escape by swinging his paw and creating a Transmitting Array that teleports himself out of the huge palm.
“What’s this skill?
“I’ve never seen him use it before.”
“Woof!” The stupid dog broke free and roared. “Human pet, how dare you use this big toy to catch me? Watch me devour heaven and earth!”
He shook his head and wagged his tail wildly.
Strange runes began to flicker around his head.
His head swelled up to a size of about 10,000 meters. He opened his mouth which looked like a huge black hole in the sky and attempted to swallow the ancient god.
Li Mu was taken aback.
“What kind of magic skill is this?”
“Huh? Stop… It’s stuck… My throat hurts so much.”
When the stupid dog swallowed half of the ancient god, the ancient god stretched out its arms to stop the dog from closing his mouth and devouring it. The stupid dog started screaming with tears spilling out of his eyes.
Li Mu said, “Let go.”
The stupid dog said, “Let go of me.”
“Let’s do it at the same time on the count of three,” Li Mu said.
The stupid dog said, “Okay.”
“One, two, three…”
Under Li Mu’s control, the ancient god loosened its grip. However, as a dark light flashed, the stupid dog swallowed the entire body of the ancient god.
“Woof! Ha-ha-ha, human pet, I got you.” The stupid dog laughed wildly.
Li Mu’s face suddenly darkened.
“I feel like I’ve been fooled by this stupid dog!”
“It’s not too late to spit it out now,” Li Mu said.
The stupid dog was still laughing with his teeth exposed. “What can you do to me if I don’t spit it out…”
Li Mu burst out laughing.
He activated the ancient god that had been swallowed by the stupid dog.
“Hmm? Ouch, ouch, ouch… My stomach hurts…” The stupid dog’s face suddenly changed. “Human pet, stop it! Stop… My stomach is going to break. Ouch. It hurts so badly! I’m going to spit it out, okay?”
As soon as he opened his mouth, a ball of dark light came out of his mouth.
He spat out the giant ancient god that was about ten thousand meters tall.
“What the hell is it? I just can’t digest it. Ouch! This is the first time I’ve spat out what I’ve eaten,” the stupid dog said in disbelief.
Li Mu carefully checked the ancient god and found that it remained unscathed. Obviously, the stupid dog couldn’t digest or hurt it. After all, even the Four-Blade God Killing Broadsword couldn’t cause damage to its body.
“Well, you can devour it now,” said Li Mu.
“What?” The stupid dog was confused. “What do you mean?”
Li Mu said, “This thing is too big. I don’t have any storage space that can hold it. You can swallow it and hide it in your belly.”
The stupid dog glanced at Li Mu suspiciously and said, “You’re not going to kill me, are you? Human pet, I was just kidding. What you’re thinking now is a little vicious.”
Li Mu directly kicked the dog and said, “What are you thinking about? I want to tell you the secret method for controlling the Sky-propping Pillar so that you can control it yourself in the future. In case you encounter any opponent that you can’t defeat, you can spit out the Sky-propping Pillar to help you fight. With its help, you can conquer any opponent.”
“Really? I can consider that.” The stupid dog immediately beamed with joy and said, “However, you have named it too casually. Do you think I don’t know that Sky-propping Pillar is the leader of the transformer cars? I don’t like this name. I’ll call it Big Wasp.”
“It’s up to you.” Li Mu didn’t bother to argue with a dog.
The stupid dog performed a magic skill and swallowed the ancient god directly.
The battle was temporarily over.
It was a pity that Li Mu failed to kill the lord of the Wind Clan. The culprit escaped.
Li Mu felt a little regretful.
However, on second thought, he decided not to care too much about that. After all, the lord of the Wind Clan was severely injured and was just like a stray dog or a bird startled by the mere twang of a bowstring. He guessed that the lord of the Wind Clan would probably hide himself somewhere to recover from injury.
“Bro, how are your injuries?”
Li Mu walked over to the Immortal Taoist and asked the latter with concern.
“I’ve managed to stay alive.”
The Immortal Taoist had lost one eye, one ear, one arm, one hand, and one leg, and his face was covered in scars. He had lost those parts because of the secret skill he performed. It was difficult for him to recover. He would be a disabled person from now on.
He was obviously down in the dumps.
“Mr. Li, thank you for saving my life today. I didn’t expect that in just a few months, you would become powerful enough to defeat the Divine Clans.” The Immortal Taoist sighed and said, “I’ve thought about it carefully and realized that we are just too immersed in the glory of the Celestial Court and have been trying to seek fame and success. Unlike us, you’re wholly dedicated to the pursuit of the Great Way.”
Upon hearing that, Li Mu felt quite sorry for the Immortal Taoist, so he tried to comfort the latter. “You shouldn’t say that…” However, for a moment, he didn’t know what to say to comfort the latter.
The Immortal Taoist smiled faintly. The wounds on his face were a bit distorted as he smiled, but that didn’t make him look ferocious.
He said, “I know what you mean, so please rest assured. I’m not going to give up on myself. After all, I’ve been practicing Taoism for decades. My cultivation level is ordinary, but I have a strong and firm mindset to follow the Tao. The hundreds of elites of Chunyang Clan have all died, and I’m the only one left. All the ancient books and mental cultivation methods of the clan are in my possession. I’ll go back and study them hard. From now on, there will be no Chunyang Clan in the Celestial Court, and there will be a group of people who work hard to follow the Tao.”
With that, he turned around and waved goodbye.
Li Mu wanted to ask him to stay. After all, he was seriously injured, and there were too many dangers in the immortal palace.
However, the Immortal Taoist just waved his hand at Li Mu and left resolutely.
Li Mu hoped that after experiencing this battle, the Immortal Taoist had truly gained enlightenment and would break away from the Celestial Court and wholeheartedly pursue the Tao. Perhaps this might instead be a good thing.
He noticed that various clans of the Celestial Court acted in a domineering and condescending manner and tended to kill at will. He was sure that there was definitely more than one cruel and ruthless clan like the Wind Clan, and those clans might not be able to escape the disaster in the future.
“This little Taoist monk has seen it through, so he has escaped death.”
The voice of the fairy in yellow came to Li Mu’s ears again.
Li Mu was taken aback. He asked, “Sister, have you been here all the time?”
The voice of the fairy in yellow answered, “No.”
“Oh…” Li Mu didn’t know what to say next.
The fairy in yellow said, “As long as I pay attention, I can see everything in this immortal palace. Since you have taken revenge, you can leave now.”
Li Mu rubbed his nose and said with a smile, “Sister, there are still a few sworn enemies that I haven’t found yet, and there is one more thing that I haven’t finished. Can you let me stay here for a few more days?”
“I know you have other plans,” the fairy in yellow said in a tone tinged with a touch of compromise. “Just watch out for your own safety. This place is more dangerous than you can imagine. I won’t be available to take care of you from now on.”
Li Mu was surprised to hear that. He asked, “Sister, are you in trouble?”
The fairy in yellow said, “It’s just a little trouble. No big deal.”
Li Mu became anxious. He said, “Sister, as you can see, I’m not powerful enough, but I can be of help if I have your advice. Why don’t we join forces? I can help you with…”
“Stop dreaming. Boy, you’re far from strong enough to help me. You’d better hide far away and avoid making trouble for me.” The voice of the fairy in yellow was full of undisguised contempt for Li Mu.
“But I…” Li Mu still wanted to defend himself.
The fairy in yellow stopped him and said, “Alright, I have something to do. Be careful. If I have not contacted you in three days, you should leave the immortal palace right away and never come back again.”
As her voice faded away…
Li Mu couldn’t get in touch with her no matter how hard he tried.
“Why does that woman always call you boy?” The stupid dog came over to Li Mu and asked with a wretched smile.
Li Mu said, “Because I’m young.”
“Oh, I thought it was because you’ve got a small wiener.” The stupid dog glanced at Li Mu’s crotch out of the corner of his eye.
“What the fuck!”
Li Mu exploded with rage at once. “You stupid dog, what are you looking at? What do you mean?”
“Nothing, haha, nothing.” The Husky backed off with a sly smile.
Li Mu was so angry that his teeth hurt.
He recalled the safe route indicated by the map that the chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe gave him. Then, he found the coordinates of his destination and continued on his way.
About half a day passed.
Li Mu came to the place of the Myriad Beasts Ring marked on the map.
“This place seems to be… Is it a Sky Gate?”
He looked up at the huge white gate that stood several hundred meters high in front of him.
It looked like the gate of an ancient city and was more than 600 meters high. It had an arched passage and two white panels with rivets in the shape of the heads of some ferocious mythological animal. Each of the rivets was as big as a human being, and the ferocious mythological animals were lifelike, as if they were going to break free from the panels and fly into the sky at any minute.
“What’s behind the gate?”
Li Mu felt nervous for no reason.
“There seems to be some terrifying secret hidden behind this gate.
“According to the chief of the Yellow Dragon Tribe, the place for returning the Myriad Beasts Ring is right behind this gate.”
