Chapter 24: Who is it?
To confirm that Luo Feng was dead, the most important thing was that he had to see the remains of the Mo Yun Vine, and the red identity token also had an auxiliary proof effect.
“I would have died if I went into the Ice Mountain Stone Forest surrounded by that group of phantom beasts. Not to mention him.”
“But I have to confirm his identity.”
Realm Lord Wu Qi stood at the intersection of 817 caves, anxious.
What to do?
It was neither a good idea to break in, nor was it a good idea to leave!
“Go into the virtual universe network first and find someone else to take a look.” Realm Lord Wu Qi detached a sliver of his consciousness and quickly connected to the virtual universe network.
Unlike the Blood Luo World, the Nine Stars Sea was controlled by the Virtual Universe Company, and there were often indigenous Realm Lords and Immortals who returned home after venturing into the vastness of the universe, which caused the Nine Stars Sea to have some items such as “spaceships” and “Virtual Universe Network Consciousness Sensors”. Items.
In the virtual universe, inside an ancient mansion.
“Bayan, Bayan.”
Realm Lord Wu Qi sat on a chair, a screen floated in front of him, and soon, another man with black curved horns appeared on the screen, the strongest of the six in the Thousand Star Sect’s batch – Realm Lord 9th ranked Bayan.
“Witch Qi, what are you looking for me for?” Bayan asked in the screen.
“I think I’ve found my target.” Witch Qi’s eyes seemed to be burning ethereal cold flames.
“Oh?” Bayan revealed a hint of joy, this mission is actually a hot potato, they all know very well that the background of the target they want to kill is certainly not small, but they have to come, if Boundary Lord Witch Qi can kill the target, Bayan is of course happy beyond measure, even pursued and asked, “Are you sure?”
“Can’t be sure.” Wu Qi shook his head.
“What’s going on?” Bayan was skeptical.
“It’s like this, I found a universe level ninth rank youth earlier.” Realm Lord Witch Qi began to describe it, from beginning to end.
Bayan was silent for a moment.
“You are wrong!” Bayan said.
“Wrong, where is it wrong, I almost died, that universe level ninth rank must die. And he can escape …… in my hands is definitely not someone from my Nine Star Sea.” Realm Lord Wu Qi was confident.
“Yes, it is indeed unlikely that he is someone from the Nine Star Sea.” Bayan said, “But Witch Qi, you’ve forgotten one thing, this Demon Mountain is one that often has some noble existences from the Virtual Universe Corporation coming in to intrude. Those noble existences are all at the ninth stage of the universe level, and they all have a lot of means. The one you encountered is indeed very ordinary, however, it is not necessarily the target. It could very well be another noble existence.”
“Uh-” Wu Qi froze.
It was.
Bayan was right, there wasn’t just one extremely high-status Cosmic Rank Nine that came to the Demon Mountain to make a break for it.
“Then what should I do now?” Wu Qi frowned, “Do I stay in this cave and wait for my chance, or do I continue to look for it.”
“In this case, you will temporarily stand guard at the entrance of that cave.” Bayan Lian said, “Wait for a period of time, you quietly sneak into the cave …… until you are close to that ice mountain stone forest, you carefully converge under the breath, you should not be found. You sneak to see if there is the remains of that Mo Yun vine. I reckon that those stupid phantom beasts aren’t so bad as to destroy the remains of the Mo Yun Vine.”
Wu Qi pondered and nodded.
Inside the vast and deep passageway.
After the behemoth-like lizard phantom beast realized that its target, the Human Realm Lord, had disappeared, it chased after it for hundreds of thousands of kilometers in a single breath, but still couldn’t catch up with it, so it stopped.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
In just a few moments, the four Realm Lord level phantom beasts behind them also quickly slowed down and stopped after the lizard phantom beast.
“Roar…… “The Lizard Illusionary Beast tilted its head and let out a roar, causing the entire passageway to tremble slightly.
“Roar …… “The other four Realm Lord Illusionary Beasts also tilted their heads and roared.
With that, the Lizard Illusionary Beast turned around and started to return, and the four Realm Lord Illusionary Beasts followed behind. They ran fast when they were chasing the humans, but when they went back, they were just running casually, with a speed of about one-third of what they were just now.
“What’s going on?”
“Returned?”
A member of the vast army of Illusory Beasts, the eight-meter tall cute Ice Bear looked around, only to see that the Illusory Beasts had stopped running, and many of them were rumbling, all following the returning leader, the Lizard Illusory Beast, and had started to return.
Although the Lizard Phantom Beast and the other five Realm Master Phantom Beasts were returning, the other over a thousand Phantom Beasts were not entirely consistent.
The majority of the Illusory Beasts returned.
There was also a small portion that walked slowly and leisurely, and there were even more than a dozen phantasmal beasts that continued to walk slowly along the passageway in the direction that the human Realm Lord had escaped from.
Their thinking was simple to the extreme.
It was as if a group of chicks were running around, most of them were running together, but there were still some that were detached from the larger group.
“No wonder I had once encountered individual phantom beasts before.” Ice Bear “Luo Feng” wandered around, but quietly paid attention to the surrounding situation, “Illusory beasts are clustered and like to live in groups. But occasionally, there are still some Illusory Beasts that are foolish enough to break away from the pack.”
“I don’t know if that Realm Master is dead!”
“If it’s dead, I’ll be able to leave this passage. If it’s not dead it’s probably fled far away, and I’ll be able to go elsewhere as usual.”
Slowly, the Ice Bear and the other ten or so Mirage Beasts all advanced in the direction of the human Realm Lord’s escape.
From time to time, the Ice Bear even ran for a while, strolling at times.
The other ten or so phantom beasts would occasionally use that huge body formed from ice to gently bump down the ice bear.
On the way with more than ten phantom beasts, the ice bear “Luo Feng” ran for a while, leaving the other phantom beasts behind.
Only then did he begin to accelerate towards the entrance of the passageway.
A few moments later–
“Luo Feng, world power fluctuation detected! It’s from that world lord from before.”
The running ice bear started to slow down quite naturally, and even deliberately bumped its body against the ice of the mountain wall next to it, and after advancing slightly for a while, it turned its head and started to return.
“There are phantom beasts?” The black curved horned lean man who was guarding the intersection of the 817 caves frowned, and then let out a sigh of dark relief, “It’s a Cosmic Grade Third Stage Strength Illusory Beast.”
“What a stupid enough body to rub against the ice?”
“Stupid.”
He was also too lazy to kill a phantom beast.
Moreover, Wu Qi himself was really scared of being chased before, fearing that killing this phantom beast would attract more other phantom beasts.
“Hmm, returning.”
“That’s right, go back to your lair.” Realm Lord Wu Qi revealed a smile, the phantom beast had already returned and gone out of the range where his world power had spread out.
In the deep cave passage of the mountain rock and ice, the ice bear walked slowly, when it stepped out of the range of world power.
“Luo Feng, we’ve left the world force detection range.”
“Whew.”
Ice bear’s eyes had a hidden glow, “I didn’t realize that world lord hadn’t left yet.”
“The location just now is 10003 kilometers away from the 817 Cave Intersection. Based on the distance I presumed …… that realm lord, it is likely to hide in the 817 cave intersection. Detecting at all times.” Babata’s consciousness exchanged, “It’s very safe there, and once he realizes that there’s a lucrative phantom beast chasing him, he can immediately drill into one of the other cave passages. It’s estimated that the phantom beasts wouldn’t even be able to guess which passage he went to. But the fact that he didn’t leave makes me suspicious ……”
“Suspect what?” Luo Feng even asked.
“The terrifyingness of the phantom beast swarm, that realm lord is already well aware of it. If he stays at that cave intersection, although it’s safe, it’s still possible for him to be chased by the phantom beasts! The safest way is to leave this far away. But he didn’t!”
“In the Demon Mountain he didn’t go to collect the tokens, instead he bitterly guarded the cave entrance.”
“Combined with that desperate pursuit of you before, I have to suspect …… that his real target is you, Luo Feng.” Babata said.
“It’s me?”
Luo Feng frowned, recalling the course of events.
Indeed, this realm lord was now staying at the entrance of the cave with constant vigilance, not daring to have a hint of laxity, if it wasn’t for the purpose of killing himself, there was no need to stay at the entrance of the cave and be on tenterhooks.
“Why does he want to kill me?” Luo Feng frowned.
Native powerhouses wanted to join the virtual universe company, one was to stay in the magic mountain for a month, or collect 1000 black tokens or 1 red token. But with the ninth stage strength of a sector lord, it was easy to collect 1000 black tokens or stay for a month. There was no need to be on edge at all times in the cave.
“Even if he suspects that you, Luo Feng, are a certain highness of the Virtual Universe Corporation, there’s no need for him to have to kill you. For one, killing a certain highness wouldn’t be favorable to his future development in the Virtual Universe Company. Secondly, he doesn’t have to.”
“I speculate-”
“Someone wants you dead, Luo Feng, or wants one of the other two Highnesses dead!” Babata said.
“Want me dead?” Luo Feng’s face changed.
According to the information.
There were a total of three core members of the Virtual Universe Corporation that had entered the magic mountain at this time, including himself.
“His target should be one of your three highnesses.” Babata was certain, “And it’s hard to say if the other two highnesses are the ones who didn’t walk into the ‘magic sound mountain’. So the probability that the real target is you, Luo Feng, should reach 50%.”
“50%? Who wants to kill me? I didn’t offend anyone?” Luo Feng frowned.
“Sometimes, people you don’t know will want to kill you.
Sometimes, you offend people you don’t even know.” Babata said, “I’ve followed your teacher for over sixty million years, I’ve seen too much deception. I advise you that you must be careful. This time, breaking into the Demon Mountain is not simple.”
“Understood.” The Ice Bear lowered its head and let out a low roar as it began to return to the Ice Mountain Rock Forest.
Because the rock wall of this rocky ice passage was too thick, the surface layer of ice might be able to crack and break apart. However, the rock layer that reached several kilometers thick at the back could not be helped.
Even the realm masters strong people are just desperately fleeing, and did not go to hit the rock layer, it shows that one point …… the material of this lofty magic mountain “black rock” is actually very hard.
A few moments later.
The ice bear slowly returned to the ice mountain stone forest, the vast ice mountain stone forest, a head of fantasy beasts live quietly, the ice bear “Luo Feng” arrival did not cause other ice bears care.
“Roar ……”
A 600 meter long domain master ninth stage breath strength flying bird type fantasy beast was lying on the ice, casually lifted the ice wings, the ice wings directly will be next to the passing ice bear to lift the fall and rolled a few times, and then the ice bear only slightly clumsy to climb up.
In this phantom beast’s lair “Ice Mountain Stone Forest”, the Ice Bear shuttled between many phantom beasts and kept moving forward.
“Since we can’t get out from the passage over there, we can only see what path there is on the other side of this ice mountain stone forest.” Luo Feng secretly said.
The ice bear slowly advanced, occasionally letting out a low roar.
