Buzz! Buzz!
The unique hum of the Spirit Devouring Bees echoed through the valley, sending a slight chill down everyone’s spine, especially when amidst the overwhelming black flood, three high-level Spirit Beasts were struggling fiercely.
Due to the resistance of these three high-level Spirit Beasts, the valley floor was almost entirely covered with the corpses of Spirit Devouring Bees. However, they showed no signs of retreating, their bloodshot eyes staring madly at the three high-level Spirit Beasts as they charged forward wave after wave.
The black flood seemed to form an enormous storm, and wherever this storm passed, any living creature would be left as nothing but white bones.
The two groups of people hidden in the valley felt their scalps tingle as they watched the scene before them. At this moment, if either side were to be caught up in it, they would surely be completely annihilated.
Muchen’s figure was also concealed in a crack in the mountain, his eyes peering through the gap at the valley. The Spirit Insect Flute and the strange-smelling black liquid had already been stored in his Jiezi Bracelet, not daring to reveal even the slightest bit. At this moment, if the Spirit Devouring Bees were to be attracted over, there would be no way out.
The black storm in the valley lasted for about ten minutes, during which the originally violent spiritual energy fluctuations gradually weakened until they finally disappeared completely.
When the three spiritual energy fluctuations disappeared, everyone knew that the three high-level Spirit Beasts had been completely wiped out by the Spirit Devouring Bees. This made Muchen and the others involuntarily smack their lips. The individual strength of these Spirit Devouring Bees was extremely weak, but when they gathered together, they became one of the most lethal creatures in the Black Abyss.
After dealing with the three high-level Spirit Beasts, the massive swarm of Spirit Devouring Bees circled the valley once more, then quickly flew away with a buzzing sound.
As the swarm of Spirit Devouring Bees flew away, Muchen and the others also emerged from the crack, their eyes looking towards the center of the valley. There, the three once mighty high-level Spirit Beasts were now nothing but white bones, with some sinister blood threads clinging to the bones, giving them a particularly chilling appearance.
Muchen walked forward quite leisurely, extracting three exceptionally bright Spirit Beast Essences from the craniums of the three high-level Spirit Beasts, then unceremoniously storing them in his Jiezi Bracelet.
These were the Spirit Beast Essences of high-level Spirit Beasts, far more valuable than those they had obtained in the Northern Spirit Plain. Essences of this level would even make some Divine Soul Realm experts covetous.
After putting away the Spirit Beast Essences, Muchen raised his head with a smile and stared at the mountain wall, saying, "Do you have any other tricks? Want to continue to lure high-level Spirit Beasts over? I wouldn’t mind bringing the swarm of Spirit Devouring Bees back a second time."
On the mountain wall, the faces of Liuyu and the others were particularly grim. Liu Qingtian’s pupils also constricted as he stared at Muchen, his expression filled with disbelief: "Those Spirit Devouring Bees, did you lure them here?"
"Could it be that you did it?" Muchen’s smile gradually turned cold, saying, "I think you’d better get out of the Black Abyss quickly. Otherwise, the next time the swarm of Spirit Devouring Bees appears, your fate will be the same as theirs."
Liuyu and his group were slightly disordered, and the faces of Liu Zong, Liu Ming, and the others changed. They had personally witnessed the power of the swarm of Spirit Devouring Bees, and if they were caught up in it, they would surely not escape death.
"You brat, trying to scare me? You’re still too young!" Liu Qingtian, regaining his composure, sneered, saying, "Perhaps the swarm of Spirit Devouring Bees was indeed lured by you, but it’s clear you don’t have the ability to control them. The black mist you sprayed earlier was probably the reason the swarm of Spirit Devouring Bees attacked those three high-level Spirit Beasts, right?"
Muchen smiled, but he was inwardly surprised by Liu Qingtian’s sharp eyes, as he had seen through his earlier actions clearly.
"Muchen, you have a good son!"
Liu Qingtian glared coldly at Mu Feng. Today, they had originally planned to severely damage the Mu Domain, but it was ruined by a young boy, which made him extremely angry.
"Hehe, thank you for the compliment." Mu Feng also laughed, saying, "Liu Qingtian, what other tricks do you have now? Are you going to take action yourself? It’s been a while since I’ve had a good fight. How about we have a go at it?"
Liu Qingtian’s eyes turned dark. Although he was extremely angry, he also understood that now was not the time to engage in a major battle with the Mu Domain. Otherwise, the losses would be too great, and they would have no chance of obtaining the Nine Nether Sparrow.
"I want to see how long you can remain smug!"
Liu Qingtian said coldly, then without further ado, he waved his hand and led his group quickly towards the deepest part of the Black Abyss. They no longer wanted to waste time blocking Mu Feng and his group, knowing that it would be futile.
"Move, follow them closely!"
Seeing this, Mu Feng also gave a cold command, his figure darting out first, leading the Mu Domain’s group to trail far behind Liu Qingtian and his group. The failure of the Liuyu’s previous plan made it impossible for them to shake off the Mu Domain’s group.
The two groups, one in front and one behind, quickly traversed the Black Abyss. This time, Liu Qingtian and his group became much more cautious, not daring to cause any more trouble, for fear of being caught up in it themselves.
As the two groups cautiously advanced, about half an hour later, the black valley began to fade, and the view gradually became wider and flatter.
"Whoosh!"
Mu Feng’s group emerged from the valley and appeared on a high slope, their eyes looking forward, then their expressions suddenly turned serious.
What appeared before them was a vast black basin. The ground here, as if scorched by flames, was a charred black color. However, what shocked Mu Feng and the others the most was not this, but the countless white bones scattered throughout the basin.
These bones, by their size, seemed to belong to Spirit Beasts. They were in a posture of madly running forward, as if something was attracting them, making them unable to stop.
Muchen stared at the ground covered with bones and drew in a sharp breath. What had happened here? Why were so many Spirit Beasts dead...
His gaze slowly lifted, looking forward, and he saw a huge black volcano protruding from the center of the basin. At the top of the volcano, there was a sunken dark area, like the mouth of a demon, devouring everything.
"Here..."
Muchen’s expression was solemn. The scene before him seemed familiar. He suddenly remembered that the scene described on the copper plate was exactly the same!
Muchen turned his head and exchanged a glance with Mu Feng, both seeing a trace of surprise and joy in each other’s eyes.
Clearly, this was the place where the Nine Nether Sparrow resided!
And their destination!
