The Portal of Wonderland

It's August! Monthly pass, monthly pass, fellow daoists, you must vote for Xuanjie for the guaranteed monthly pass!

………………

Okay, I understand. What do you want to eat and drink, just tell me. Shi Mu smiled.

Speaking of which, he sneaked into Ling Tianfeng that day, fortunately he didn't bring Cai'er with him, not to mention the fierce battle in Ling Tianfeng's secret vault that day, even the days in the necromancer interface, Cai'er's body would definitely not be able to bear it.

However, Shi Mu escaped death in the Lingtian Secret Library, and experienced some experience in the Necromancer Interface, and his mind changed a little unconsciously. Now he can return to the human world, see the bustling crowd, and the chattering Caier again. It's like a world away.

Quack, I'm just waiting for your words. I've been hiding these days, and I'm skinny. Cai'er cheered.

Let's go there. Shi Mu looked at a restaurant not far ahead, and walked over there.

When he came to a private room on the second floor, Shi Mu ordered some snacks and a jug of local specialty wine. As soon as the table was served, Cai Er immediately jumped on it and began to eat and drink.

Cai'er, eat slowly, and no one will fight with you... By the way, I haven't asked you yet. You are near Ling Tianfeng these days, do you know how Ling Tianfeng is doing now? Is there any commotion? Shi Mu looked Seeing Cai'er's hard work, she couldn't help laughing. After taking a sip of tea, she asked.

I was afraid that I would be caught by those monsters, so I didn't dare to get too close to Ling Tianfeng, and I kept walking around outside... But it seems that nothing happened to Ling Tianfeng, and the Transformation Ceremony seems to have ended smoothly... I haven't heard of any trouble. ...Huh... Cai'er said while eating, and finally took a big gulp of wine, then she squinted her eyes in satisfaction and hiccupped.

Oh, everything is normal? Shi Mu frowned, a little in disbelief.

That day the Cang Ape King escaped successfully, but he took away the seal of the White Ape Demon King in the Lingtian Treasure Treasury. The Huanglong Taoist waited in vain for three hundred years, and finally the bamboo basket fetched water in vain. It's not right to let it go.

Could it be that something else happened later?

Thoughts turned in Shi Mu's mind, and his eyes flickered.

By the way, I haven't asked you yet, did your sneaking into Ling Tianfeng go well? Cai'er asked.

Shi Mu nodded, roughly speaking about what will happen in Ling Tianfeng's secret vault, and what will be sent to the Necromancer Interface later.

What happened in Ling Tianfeng was already a bit bizarre. When she heard what happened in the Necromancer Interface, Cai'er's expression froze, and she didn't notice when a piece of snack in her mouth fell to the ground.

I encountered so many dangers, but luckily I didn't follow. Cai'er said with some fear as she swallowed the food in her mouth.

Shi Mu smiled lightly, he had already experienced such dangerous experiences, and he was already used to it.

Shitou, since you have obtained the blood essence of the White Ape, what are you going to do next? Cai'er asked.

Naturally, we need to find a place to refine the blood essence of the white ape, but let's completely complete the first level of the Nine-Turn Mysterious Art. Shi Mu said.

Then shall we return to Scarlet Flame City? Cai'er asked.

Shi Mu's eyes flickered slightly, he was also thinking about this matter.

It is best to refine the blood of the white ape and practice the nine-turn Xuangong in a scorching fire environment. The lava pool in Chiyan City is just right, but Leng Yuetong is in Chiyan City, he subconsciously does not want to be with this Women have too much contact.

At this moment, there was a commotion under the restaurant.

Shi Mu sat by the window, his eyes looked outside, his expression changed slightly.

In the sky above Fengqi City, several huge flying boats with a length of twenty or thirty feet flew past.

Countless figures could be vaguely seen standing on the flying boat, tearing the air, sending out a huge roar, heading southwest, and quickly disappeared in the distance.

People on the street downstairs were discussing and pointing in the direction of the flying boat.

Shi Mu frowned slightly, looked away, and sat down.

Just now some flags were planted on those flying boats, and he saw the logos of the top ten barbarian tribes.

As early as when he was in Chiyan City, he had learned from Yu Yi that due to various old worries and new hatreds between the barbarians and the monster races, frequent conflicts began to occur. This huge flying boat will not be used to transport people.

Thoughts turned in his mind, he got up and called a waiter from a restaurant, and asked him about the flying boat just now.

Senior, don't you know that some time ago, the conflict between our barbarian tribe and the monster tribe intensified again. Several large-scale battles broke out at the junction of the two tribes. The flying boats just now are one of the ten closest barbarian tribes. One, the reinforcements sent by the Xuanxiong clan to the front line. Xiao Er said.

Shi Mu was startled. The friction between the barbarians and the monsters has actually evolved to the level of a large-scale war. It seems that the scale will be further expanded.

I've been practicing in closed doors for the past few days, but I didn't pay attention to the outside world. How is the situation at the front line now? It won't affect here. Shi Mu nodded and asked again.

I don't know about the small ones on the Yaozu side, but on our barbarian side, three of the top ten barbarian tribes have sent large troops to station. It is said that tens of thousands of people have gathered on the front line, and the war is about to break out. Xiaoer said.

Shi Mu asked a few more questions, then casually rewarded Xiao Er with a few low-grade spirit stones, and sent him away.

Shi Mu looked out of the window in mid-air, his eyes flickering, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Cai'er saw that Shi Mu was thinking about something, so she didn't bother, and finished the snacks on the table by herself.

Let's go.

After a while, Shi Mu stood up and walked downstairs.

Well, Shitou, where are we going next? Seeing this, Cai'er hurriedly stuffed the remaining food into the end, flew to Shi Mu's shoulder, and asked.

Go and investigate the situation of the battle between the two tribes of wild monsters. Shi Mu said.

Where are you going to investigate? Cai'er wondered.

Shi Mu smiled lightly, but did not answer. After a stick of incense, he came to an inconspicuous material shop in the city.

Shitou, what are you doing here? Cai'er asked a little puzzled.

Ask for information, don't look at this place as small, it's actually a stronghold of the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce. Shi Mu said.

He helped Zhong Xiu with many things in Cangxu City, and learned a lot about the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce from Zhong Xiu. Zhong Xiu even showed him information about the locations of the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce's strongholds in various parts of the Xihe mainland.

Cai'er suddenly realized.

You hide first. I'm probably being arrested by the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce. You are too conspicuous. It is easy for others to guess my identity from you. Shi Mu said.

Cai'er nodded, and flew into Shi Mu's sleeve.

Shi Mu stepped into the material store.

...

After half an hour, Shi Mu walked in and out with a gloomy expression.

The current battle between the barbarians and the monsters is much more serious than he expected.

On the side of the barbarians, the top ten barbarians are ready to move, and on the side of the monsters, they are even more dispatched. It is said that there are already heavenly monsters appearing on the front line.

Both sides are increasing their troops, as if a war is about to start.

Shitou, it seems that the monster and barbarian are coming for real this time. Let's try to avoid them and let them fight. Anyway, it has nothing to do with us. Cai'er flew out of Shi Mu's sleeve and landed. On Shi Mu's shoulder.

Of course, but once the battle starts, there is no guarantee that the location of Chiyan City will not be involved. It seems that there is no way to go back there. Shi Mu said.

Although the area of ​​Chiyan City is a bit special, it is at the junction of the two clans after all. When the battle situation gets out of control, it is hard to guarantee that it will not be affected.

He had just sent a message to Chiyancheng Yuyi, Hou Sailei, through the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, asking them to stay in Chiyancheng and collect various information.

At the same time, he also sent a message to Leng Yuetong, telling her about Liu An's death. Of course, he didn't tell the process.

In addition, just now at the Tianwu Chamber of Commerce, he inadvertently heard that the Mingyue Sect seems to be doing some unusual things now.

The situation in the church seems to be a little different. At this moment, the barbarians and the monsters are fighting. As an ally of the barbarians, the Mingyue Sect has not sent reinforcements until now.

Regarding the situation of the Mingyue Sect, Shi Mu had some vague guesses in his heart, and it was very likely that it had something to do with the death of Liu An, the soul of the Eastern Sect.

Then, where should we go? Caier asked.

Shi Mu pondered slightly, and took out a map with a wave.

Seeing this, Cai'er moved her furry head closer.

...

Time flies, two years passed in a blink of an eye.

A huge black island somewhere in the Xiga Continent, the area is not small, it is a hundred miles in size.

The island is basically full of mountain peaks. The largest huge black mountain peak is billowing with thick smoke and making loud roars from time to time, but it is an active volcano.

In an underground cave inside the mountain, crimson magma is everywhere in the cave, forming a scorching lake.

From time to time, heat waves and bubbles burst out of the lake surface, and the magma surged and fluctuated from time to time, just like the tide of sea water. From time to time, hot magma flew up and splashed into the air.

The magma emits a crimson light, reflecting the entire underground cave into a red world.

In the center of the magma lake, a huge black stone protruded from the magma, like a black island in the center of the lake.

The huge black boulder was much higher than the lake surface, and the splashed magma could not fall on it. At this moment, a man in green robe was sitting cross-legged on the huge black boulder.

The man was tall, with dark skin and well-defined features on his face, giving him a sense of fortitude.

The scorching hot breath that is enough to make people crazy here seems to be of no use to this person. There is a faint red light on his body, and strands of red threads in the air pour into his body.

The exposed part of the man's left arm was scorched black, as if it had been roasted in a raging fire.

This person is naturally Shi Mu.

He stayed away from the war between the barbarian and monster clans, and came here to practice in seclusion.

He chanted the mantra in a low voice, and a burst of white flames slowly appeared on his scorched left arm.

Hula!

The flame light slowly lit up, and finally a cluster of white flames suddenly ignited, burning blazingly. (To be continued.)
