Chapter 444: Cutting off Heaven Path

Speaking of Eunuch Li, Liu An’s eyes lit up.

Never would he have thought that the books from the Jingning Palace would come in handy one day.

When he read that military book back then, he thought that there would never be a use for it in this lifetime.

What special operations? What beheading operation?

And the need to specially train a strong and powerful army?

For such a matter, just sending two experts to assassinate would do.

They would obtain the same results, and there would be a lot less trouble.

Who would have thought that after the beasts wisened up, the strength of both sides would be about the same. Assassinations didn’t work.

This kind of battle tactic gradually became clear to Liu An.

After killing the opponent’s powerful experts and commanders, what was left was a group of wandering soldiers.

No matter how powerful these soldiers were, they would just gang up on them.

If the Human Clan continued fighting like this, they would be able to advance quickly and not get entangled with the Demon Clan. In the end, both sides would continuously throw in their experts’ lives.

Zhou Kun listened with admiration.

“Why are you looking for me?”

“We have already occupied Phoenix Lake Mountain. Next, we will definitely have to face the Aquatic Clan so…”

“The Aquatic Clan is a problem! Both our clans are clear that the war between us will break out sooner or later. I’m afraid it won’t be easy to pass this time.”

Liu An stared at the map and fell into deep thought.

Half a year later, the Human and Aquatic Clans had a conflict on Phoenix Lake Mountain.

Then, a great war broke out.

The war between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan entered an intense stalemate.

The Demon Clan sent their experts to ambush the Human Clan.

Unfortunately, the humans was already prepared.

After fighting for half a day, they only managed to ambush some insignificant characters.

Instead, because some experts left the front line, the war became tense. Liu An and the others took the opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

In front of the small temple, the Black Dragon King looked at it for a long time before he walked to the stone door.

“Do I really have to climb over?”

Over the years, he had searched many places and confirmed that this was the only place that fit the description of the ancestors.

In all the descriptions, they had entered through the stone door.

But he had gone around the stone door.

“Is entering through the stone door very different from going through the stone door?”

The Black Dragon King could not understand.

He decided to give it a try.

Let’s try entering through the stone door!

If he still could not find the flame-shaped mountain even if he entered through the stone door, he would have to return to the Dragon Clan.

This meant that the mission had failed.

In fact, the Black Dragon King had wanted to return a long time ago.

How many times had he been unable to find his position? He even wondered if there was a problem with the clan’s records?

But if he returned just like that, he would definitely be ridiculed by the other Dragon Kings in the clan.

And because of him, the Black Dragon Clan would also become the laughing stock of the entire Dragon Clan.

“No matter what, I have to make sure I leave no stone unturned.”

Whoosh!

The Black Dragon King climbed over from under the stone door.

Then he found a small path made of bluestone.

The path was blocked by bushes, and if one didn’t pay attention, they wouldn’t be able to see clearly.

The Black Dragon King frowned and followed the path. Then, the path led to a cave, and after passing the cave, it suddenly opened up.

A valley!

The huge valley was like a paradise.

The scenery around the valley was beautiful, and it was lush and verdant. Comparing the valley to the outside world was like the comparing heaven and earth.

“This… Am I at the right place now?”

The Black Dragon King was completely sure that this valley was not in his original surrounding.

He had a clear understanding of the surrounding mountains and rivers.

There was no such place.

Why was this so?

He had to go under the stone door to find this place.

A formation?

The Black Dragon King was filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he would have entered through the stone door and met the Phoenix Clan a few years earlier. He would have completed his mission a long time ago.

After walking around the valley, he saw a mountain peak in the shape of a flame.

There were no trees on the peak and it was completely bare.

Even the aura of the mountain looked similar, let alone the shape.

The Black Dragon King scurried up to the top of the mountain peak.

A very small stone pillar in the shape of a triangle stood on the top of the mountain.

“Found it! I’ve finally found it!”

Then, the Black Dragon King followed the instructions of his clan to walk around the small stone tablet three times, and then he pressed down on the stone tablet.

Boom!

Following that, the color of the world changed, and the surroundings became pitch black. The Black Dragon King’s divine consciousness was also suppressed into his sea of awareness.

A moment later, a bout of dizziness struck. The Black Dragon King opened his divine consciousness again and discovered that he had appeared in a plane tree forest.

The plane tree was so tall, it seemed like it was headed straight for the horizon.

“Dragon Clan?”

While the Black Dragon King was astonished, a surprised voice appeared in his sea of awareness.

Inside the Forbidden Area of the Xuantian Sect.

Li Mu let out a long breath.

After so many years, he had finally cracked the formation of the last mysterious place in the Forbidden Area of the Xuantian Sect.

After entering the mysterious place, all the secrets of the ancient times assailed Li Mu.

He scanned it with his divine consciousness.

“Heaven Path has been cut off?”

Li Mu’s divine consciousness landed in front of a cliff and stared at the words on it.

The words had a profound charm.

After so many years, the aura from these words suffocated Li Mu.

It was definitely written by an ordinary expert.

Why did the expert write such a sentence?

What did it mean?

Wasn’t Heaven Path fine?

Li Mu frowned.

He gave up temporarily.

Such a profound topic wasn’t something he could think of.

If this sentence was just casually written by an expert that had gone crazy, wouldn’t it be a waste of time he would sit here and study it for a few years?

This wasn’t the only secret of the mysterious place.

After entering the mysterious place, Li Mu quickly found the formation heirloom.

“Good!”

Very soon, Li Mu began researching the formation.

He couldn’t care about anything else.

On the plane tree, the Black Dragon King was hanging on a branch. On the top of the opposite tree, there was a huge bird whose appearance couldn’t be seen.

The Black Dragon King lowered his head, his entire body trembling.

This wasn’t just the fear of his bloodline. The bird whose appearance couldn’t be seen clearly had a vigorous aura that wasn’t inferior to the aura he felt from the ancestor’s body.

“Speak, you long black worm. Why have you entered the territory of the Phoenix Clan? We haven’t had the taste of long worms in a while. Are you here to improve our food?”

“No, no! Something big has happened outside. The Demon Clan is going to be finished. That’s why…”

“Oh? The Demon Clan is going to be finished? How is that possible! Has the Devil Clan revived?”

A distant voice rose from his heart.

The Black Dragon King’s body trembled again.

This phoenix’s strength was ability probably much stronger than the ancestor’s.

“No! It’s the humans.”

“Phew! I thought it was something big! The humans were once a part of our demons.”

“No, it’s the humans who want to exterminate all of us demons!”

The Black Dragon King cried as he spoke.

“The words of you all from the Dragon Clan cannot be trusted. Besides, we have been reclusive for many years and do not want to participate too much. Since you aren’t here to provide us with food, you can leave!”

The large bird flapped its wings.

The Black Dragon King could not help but fly out.

“If you do not believe me, you can go out and take a look!”

The Black Dragon King’s exclamation could be heard from afar.

On the tree branch, a blurry figure gradually appeared.

A large red firebird, had its entire body enveloped in flames.

“Qing Luan King ~”

The large bird within the flames spoke.

Chirp ~

With a cry, a huge green-purple figure appeared.

“Go out and take a look!”

“Yes!”

The green-purple figure disappeared.

The firebird tilted its head and thought for a long time before speaking again, “Golden Crow ~”

Whoo~

A huge black-red firebird appeared.

“The Dragon Clan has come to find us, which means that the world outside might really be changing. Although the Dragon Clan’s words cannot be completely trusted, go out and capture the most powerful expert of the Human Clan. I will have a great use for it.”

“Yes!”

The black firebird left.

The huge fiery shadow raised its head to look at the sky and muttered to itself, “Heaven Path has been cut off, and the cultivation level can only stop at the half-step emperor-level. We’ve been in hiding for so many years, there’s no point in hiding all the time.”
