Chapter 826 The Gate of the Hell
The old faker must have been really bored.
Having examined the “Type 81 Assault Rifle” in his hand, Li Mu gasped in admiration.
The weapon had been thoroughly modified by the old faker. And it was refined from ordinary Type 81 Assault Rifles. The sophisticated equipment even made Li Mu amazed.
The refined rifle was sharp and hard. These advantages were crude and direct!
However, such advantages were meaningless for most practitioners.
But it was the most suitable weapon for these blustering old men.
The rifle became an invincible weapon in their hands.
Li Mu couldn’t help wondering if the Zhenwu Boxing skill he got from the old faker was the simplified version, while the detailed one had been imparted to these old men.
Otherwise, how could a man’s body grow to such a degree in such a short while?
Soon, a tantalizing aroma permeated the entire camp.
“Phew, our conditions now are so good, but soldiers of the Long March in history fought in such bad conditions...” Old Wang handed Li Mu a leg of lamb coated with sauce and honey.
Li Mu was speechless when he saw that each of them carried a space equipment, which was used to store various seasonings and daily necessities. He also saw someone take out specialty beer and Bingfeng brand drinks of Baoji City.
“Were they here for leisure?”
Well... the roast lamb leg was so delicious.
As he ate the leg of lamb, Li Mu turned his head and saw that the stupid dog had already taken off his black suit and sunglasses and was wolfing down a whole roast ox.
On the other side, the demon tiger, “Rotten”, was shivering in fear.
“These group of humans are too scary, especially that wolfhound spirit, who is really the devil incarnate. All my friends are gonna be eaten by them. Ouch, mom, I wanna go back to Tiger Mountain... However, the meat of brother black bull and sister white sheep smell really good.”
The demon tiger’s nose twitched.
“No. I mustn’t eat them. They were once my former comrades. Even if I starve to death, or get beaten to death by that evil dog, I should not eat their flesh.”
Bang!
A large roasted ox leg was thrown in front of the demon tiger.
Chewing the meat, the stupid Husky said vaguely, “Eat it. You can eat well and live well if you follow me. When I become an immortal in the future, you will also have a chance to be cultivated to extraordinary level as long as you are loyal to me...”
“Yes, my master.”
The demon tiger took big bites of the roast leg in front of it.
“That was awesome.
“Brother Black bull’s leg was so savory.”
When all the soldiers finished their meat, the changes in the sky were still ongoing.
Li Mu made a detailed plan and set up more tactical deployments around the camp. And he even activated a secret Fengshui skill he learnt from the old faker to actuate the Wondrous Earthvein at the foot of Mount Tianxuan. He finally set his mind at rest after laying out the strongest tactical deployment.
Two hours passed quickly after Li Mu set up a schedule for the Husky, Ouyang Fu, Wang Menghu, and the others to guard the campsite, and emphasized the important details.
Boom!
Mount Tianxuan shook violently.
A mysterious force came out of the huge vortex in the sky and it seemed as if it was going to pull the whole Mount Tianxuan into the vortex.
Flashes of lightning and thunder came out of the huge vortex and rained down on Mount Tianxuan.
In an instant, the entire mountain resembled a doomsday scene.
Countless practitioners and capable men, who were not able to react in time, were struck by the lightning. The weaker ones were directly burnt into crisp, whereas the stronger ones could barely resist the onslaught.
The tactical deployment above the campsite was automatically activated when it was attacked.
“What’s going on?”
The Husky stood up, feeling quite nervous.
It recalled its fearful experience previously, when it returned to the Earth and was struck by lightning. Now it still felt a lingering fear.
Standing aside, the demon tiger saw the Husky’s reaction to the scene, and noted that its master was afraid of lightning.
However, Li Mu saw that among countless lightning strikes, many figures activated their cultivation methods and rushed against the thunder and lightning toward the huge vortex, like carps jumping over the dragon gate.
“The door of the immortal world is open....”
“Gate of the Ancestors has opened, behind which lay opportunities. The one who enters first can become an immortal!”
“I’m going to break the fetters in my fate! I want to become an immortal and reverse my lifespan! Ah Ah Ah Ah!”
“Dash, success or failure hinges on this one action.”
Emitting crazy shouts and roars, many practitioners with profound cultivation and capable men rushed madly toward the vortex, which gradually opened in the sky.
At that time, the huge vortex had been completely divided into six parts, which were still within the same energy turbulence. The six parts were fixed in one certain zone by the surrounding ancient runes. They seemed like six compound eyes on one huge eyeball, which looked ferocious and menacing and filled with a sense of evil.
Li Mu was not in a hurry to make any moves.
Because he saw that the current practitioners rushing to the Gate of Ancestors were indeed the outstanding ones on Mount Tianxuan, but they were definitely not the actual top ones. For example, the Cloud Light Saintess, the Athanasia Taoist Child, and the others were still waiting and did not take any action yet.
He also noticed that some foreign practitioners had set up a strange asterism deployment everywhere on the top of Mount Tianxuan. They were carrying out a cruel and bloody sacrificial ceremony. Obviously, they wanted to summon something from the huge Gate of the Ancestors.
At this moment, all the practitioners were rushing in for the sake of receiving benefits.
Countless scheming people seemed to have gone crazy.
Gradually, the lightning in the sky lessened.
The terrifying lightning strikes and rolling thunderclaps completely disappeared at last.
The huge whirlpool finally turned into a huge blue rectangular gate, as if there was a lucid lake floating in the sky above Mount Tianxuan. However, the giant gate was divided into six rectangles of the same size by horizontal and vertical structures.
The six parts made the Gate of Ancestors look like a window with six pieces of glass in the sky.
The windows were as clear as a mirror, which reflected the beautiful scenery that far exceeded the beauty of Mount Tianxuan.
When the lightning strikes and thunderclaps ceased, more figures overlapped and rushed toward the huge gate. Countless practitioners appeared like flying insects and nearly blotted out the sky and the sun.
Of course, not everyone were in a rush to enter the Gate of the Ancestors.
Some were fond of planning before taking action, who were carefully observing potential dangers and killing intent.
Watched by thousands of people, although the first person who rushed to the front was charred by the previous lightning strikes, he managed to stagger into a different Gate of the Ancestors successfully.
Then he disappeared like a sword falling into the water.
“He made it.”
Someone cried out with envy, jealousy and fervor.
After that, an increasing number of figures dived into the stabilized gate. The blue and clear gate produced ripples like water, from which wisps of Immortal Qi were emitted.
“Had he really crossed the gate and entered the Star River?”
Li Mu was also quite curious.
However, he stood still without taking any action first.
He had been to the Star River, and the most important reason was that the Athanasia Taoist Child and the others who had already grasped the secret had not taken any action, which meant that the real opportunity probably hadn’t shown up yet.
He was able to remain calm, while the others became increasingly impatient.
The onlookers also began to rush toward the Gate of the Ancestors.
10 minutes had passed.
Li Mu estimated roughly that more than 10,000 outstanding practitioners had rushed into the huge blue six mirrors and disappeared, stirring up ripples.
“Woof, Li Mu, why don’t you go and have a look?” Husky asked furtively. The stupid dog had his black suit on again and rode on the demon tiger’s back.
Li Mu glared at it and said, “You’d better stay there. Don’t try to sneak in the gate. It’s dangerous inside.”
The stupid dog thought for a while and felt that this unreliable human pet was not lying this time, so it gave up the idea of joining the rushing crowd.
Just then, a miserable scream rang out from the sky suddenly.
The sudden shrill cry stopped abruptly.
Many practitioners might not notice this abnormity.
Even Li Mu frowned. “Is it an illusion?
“No, it wasn’t.”
Li Mu saw a tiny spot appearing on the right middle mirror among the six clear and blue rectangles.
The spot was red.
It was... a drop of blood!
A mass of blood rippled across the clear surface of the gate and quickly expanded. Finally, that one segment was completely dyed red, like a huge pool of blood.
The smell of blood permeated the air.
“That is...”
“That’s blood. Someone’s dead.”
“What happened inside?”
Having noticed this occurrence, more and more practitioners had uneasy expressions on their faces.
“Ah...” Another rueful scream rang out.
A figure escaped out of the bloodstained Gate of the Ancestors. His body bled copiously and he only had half a head left. The man was in an extremely terrible state. He looked as if he had been mauled by a horrible beast.
“Help, help...”
The half face was filled with horror. He struggled desperately to fly toward the ground. But a huge beast claw reached out from the bloody gate behind him, grabbed him, and dragged him back.
His desperate and horrified screams seemed to echo across the sky.
That terrifying scene suddenly deterred the other practitioners who were rushing to the gate. Some even bumped into the people who came to a halt in front of them in the sky.
No one dared to rush into the Gate of the Ancestors now.
At the same time, many people were shocked to find that the rest of the five blue mirror-like segments of the gate had also completely turned scarlet, as if there were pools of blood hanging in the sky. Broken bones and weapons were even floating in the gates and miserable screams could be heard faintly from the inside.
The original door of this immortal sect, which initially seemed to be filled with hope and opportunities, had turned into a hellhole all of a sudden.
There was dead silence between heaven and earth in an instant.
Having witnessed the tragic sight, even a fool understood that the so-called door of immortal sects turned out to be a millstone filled with death and killing intent, rather than an opportunity to become an immortal.
All the practitioners retreated with pale faces, distancing themselves from the six large bloody pools. They tried to keep as far as possible.
Right the moment, an extremely powerful expert finally took action.
“Humph, demons, the defeated, how dare you make mischief? I’ll teach you a lesson!”
A flash of lightning tore through the air from the west of the Mount Tianxuan Range.
A slender young scholar with a square scarf was vaguely outlined amid the bolt of lightning. He plunged into one part of the Gate of the Ancestors where the bloody red spot first appeared.
“It was the future leader of the Thunder Clan, Lei Cang.”
The Immortal Taoist strode toward Li Mu’s camp and said, “Brother Li, it’s time to make a move.”
