Chapter 840: Chapter 840 - 828: Migration
White Bird Lake shore.
In the distance, Ring Mountain approaches, gradually returning to its original position.
The Vermilion Feather Sword transforms into red lines, flying out in all directions. The Truth Listening Divine Power unfolds simultaneously, using the Vermilion Feather Sword to quickly cover the entire White Bird City. But after a sweep, he still couldn't find any trace of Qin Yisheng.
"Escaped, what a pity."
"That Shrinking Thousand Mountains Divine Power is really useful."
Chen Mu felt regretful in his heart.
Being able to manipulate the universe, Ground Shrinking is naturally easy. If he wants to escape, I really can't catch him.
At this moment, Fatty Xu, dressed in rags like a beggar, finally ran to the front of the wooden cabin.
He continuously cried out for help, darting behind Chen Mu in a flash.
Chen Mu pretended to raise his hand and press down, while giving a look to the big cat with wings that followed closely, which immediately lay obediently on the ground without moving.
After waiting for a while, Fatty Xu cautiously peeked out from behind Chen Mu.
"What's going on, why is the Black Wind Demon causing trouble in the city again?" He shivered as he spoke.
"It's Qin Yisheng! He once again launched a Black Wind assault on the city!" Chen Mu said solemnly, immediately blaming General Qin.
"Isn't that wrong?"
"A big cat with a black base and gold patterns and wings, isn't this the one that was chasing me before?"
"Wasn't it already subdued by you? How did it end up with Qin Yisheng?" Fatty Xu asked suspiciously.
"Twins!"
"This must be the twin brother of the big cat from before."
"It came to seek revenge on you!" Chen Mu said with certainty.
"Is it real? Does this creature really hold a grudge?" Fatty Xu was incredulous.
"Normally, a Black Wind Demon might not, but this batch may very well be Three Paths City's trained weapons."
"You must have noticed the changes at White Bird Lake just now; those are also Qin Yisheng's handiwork. Just look at the surroundings." Chen Mu continued to bluff with a look of seriousness.
Fatty Xu turned his head dubiously and saw the flat grassland by the shore of White Bird Lake had become uneven. Some lingering aura, just a slight perception of it, made him shiver uncontrollably.
"It really is Qin Yisheng!" Fatty Xu's face turned pale.
"Where is he?"
"He's run off." Chen Mu sighed.
"Will he come back?"
"Hard to say."
"How about we run?"
Click!
Those words sound so familiar, like something I would say myself.
Chen Mu glanced at Fatty Xu.
But these words truly resonate with what I've been thinking.
Having just acquired Divine Weapons, it's easy to be seen as an easy target. There are likely others besides Qin Yisheng who may try to seize them.
Qin Yisheng's Bone Sword can break ten thousand methods; others may have weapons even stronger than the Bone Sword, and I may not be able to handle it.
This White Bird City is indeed not a place to stay.
...
In a dense forest shrouded in heavy fog.
A sturdy middle-aged man with white hair walked step by step through the forest.
Beside him hovered a massive black mist with a bright red eyeball in the center.
At this moment, the black mist trembled slightly, and a voice, overlapped like countless people speaking simultaneously, emerged: "Three Paths City is currently defenseless, why don't you attack it?"
"The old man of the Qin Family is about to die, and he might do anything; I don't want to suffer his dying counterattack." The white-haired middle-aged man, Wei Wubing, shook his head.
"Besides, I can deal with Three Paths City here as well."
"Qin Yisheng is the most ambitious general of Three Paths City; taking care of him is like cutting off Three Paths City's right arm."
"And I can also acquire White Bird City's Divine Weapons, killing two birds with one stone." He explained cheerfully.
"That new City Lord of White Bird City may be problematic." The large eyeball reminded, "The intelligence from secret agents seems off, he might have already been subverted."
"Three Paths City has been eyeing White Bird's Divine Sword for a long time, but it was snatched by that City Lord Chen, so he must have some skills." Wei Wubing nodded.
"I suppose his innate divine abilities are quite extraordinary."
"However, it's nothing, just more effort." He spoke with a calm expression.
As he spoke, a cluster of houses and pavilions emerged within the fog.
Judging by the architectural style, it should have been a bustling street, but now it was deserted.
"This should be White Bird City, right? Where's the Divine Weapons Barrier?" the large eyeball was surprised.
"It appears that the new City Lord hasn't fully mastered the Divine Weapons." Wei Wubing laughed, "It seems acquiring White Bird's Divine Weapons will be much easier than I imagined."
But as he walked, he sensed something amiss.
The straight street suddenly disappeared, replaced by a bottomless pit, standing at the end of the street was like standing at a cliff.
Wei Wubing raised his eyebrows; an invisible force surged out, pushing away the thick Mist of Confusion.
A massive sinkhole, too large to see the end of, suddenly came into view.
The original White Bird City had vanished completely, as if dug out from the ground!
"Is this really White Bird City?" The large eyeball on the smoke cluster widened in disbelief.
A complete city, disappeared into thin air?
"Heh…"
"I really underestimated that City Lord Chen." Wei Wubing laughed a bit helplessly.
...
Somewhere in Mist Ridge.
The forest was gray and dark; a massive shadow suddenly enveloped the forest, making the originally dark forest even darker.
In the sky, accompanied by rumbling sounds, a stream of air surged in. The dense Mist of Confusion was suddenly blown aside, and a massive city broke through the clouds, floating in mid-air.
It seemed like a floating, flying island, slowly progressing through the sky.
A large amount of gray wind circulated below the island, and from within, the sounds of ghostly wails and wolf howls occasionally emerged.
The three generals of White Bird City stood at the edge, staring blankly at the forest continuously receding below.
Even though it wasn't the first time seeing it, the three couldn't help but feel amazed.
Gathering the strength of everyone, carrying the entire city into the sky.
This method…
"Fatty Xu, just what kind of background does our City Lord have?" The Rear General, Wu Tong, asked curiously.
"Is Fatty Xu what you call me? Call me Deputy City Lord!" Fatty Xu puffed out his chest proudly.
The new Right General, Zhu Gui, glanced expressionlessly at Fatty Xu and slowly placed his right hand on the hilt of the Tiger Head Saber at his waist.
"Just call him Fatty Xu, calling him Deputy City Lord sounds too formal!" Fatty Xu promptly changed his tone with a serious face.
"Don't look at me, I don't know either." He shrugged helplessly.
"Being acquainted with the City Lord was merely a stroke of luck for me."
"Whatever, having such a City Lord at the helm is beneficial for White Bird City after all." The new Former General, Cheng Hu, glanced at the giant black dragon circling around White Bird City in the distance, and waved his hand to dismiss the topic.
"As for the City Lord's origins, that's not something we should concern ourselves with."
...
White Bird Lake shore.
Chen Mu sat on the porch in front of the wooden cabin, feeling the steady operation of the Mountain-Carrying Scripture through the resonance of the Heavenly Demon Spirit Seed, and couldn't help but smile.
"Carry Mountains, Carry Mountains, indeed now it's truly carrying mountains and moving."
Ten Thousand Ghosts Carrying Mountains is precisely the essence of the Mountain-Carrying Scripture. At this moment, Chen Mu gathered all the Yin Spirit Power of White Bird City, uprooting the entire city direct from the foundation.
By carrying away most of the city, there will be no need to spend effort on construction when reaching a new place; it can be settled immediately.
Then he pinched his fingers, using the Nine Cups Calculation Scripture to ascertain the direction that led them away from the central area of Mist Ridge, Chen Mu nodded in satisfaction.
The Three Paths City, Wuxiang City, and other large cities are all in the central area of Mist Ridge. The closer to there, the more disputes are likely to occur.
The previous White Bird City was remote enough but still couldn't avoid being coveted by Three Paths City.
Thus, at the initial stage of relocating White Bird City, Chen Mu decided that the new settlement point must be in a sufficiently secluded corner.
"By then, whatever Three Paths City or Wuxiang City."
"If they want to steal my Divine Weapon, let them find me first!"
"Heh heh!"
