Chapter 367 The Winter is Coming
"Li Muyang, why do you seem so happy yet so unhappy at the same time?"
In the swirling mists of the Underground Mist World, the voice of the dragon lady rang out curiously.
Li Muyang came back to his senses and sighed, "I met a formidable opponent and she beat me thoroughly." Read new chapters at novelhall.Côm
Li Muyang’s lament was tinged with a complexity of emotions.
The dragon lady, surprised and curious, said, "There are actually people who can defeat you? If you are so strong, then the person who defeated you must be very powerful, right?"
Li Muyang shook his head, "Let’s not talk about her anymore, let’s continue with your matter."
After leaning against the wall and making his way back to his room, Li Muyang rested for a bit before opening the game and entering "Dragonkin’s Awakening."
Because he was being pursued by the Demon Cultivators of the Green Sheep Society, his game progress had been stalled for many days.
Now that he had finally dealt with the miscellaneous matters in reality, Li Muyang could return to the game and continue his quest.
He decided to clear the current game stage and claim his rewards before returning to the Refinement Demon Sect.
If he could clear this stage, the game rewards were enough for him to break through to the Dongxuan Realm.
Before Yan Xiaoru’s arrival, he had already stayed in the small town of Meizhou for several days, taking turns with the dragon lady to log in and kill many Heart-eating Insects.
By that time, the number of Heart-eating Insects in the gourd was densely packed and not far from one thousand.
Li Muyang took a deep breath, unceremoniously seized control of his body, and swiftly swam through the Mist World, searching for those sinister creatures controlled by the Heart-eating Insects.
Now, when it came to slaying Heart-eating Insects, Li Muyang had mastered the task.
The blue flames of the Heart-eating Insects surged towards him, but Li Muyang bravely faced the flames and captured one blue bug after another.
Finally, when the number of Heart-eating Insects in the gourd reached a thousand, Li Muyang immediately shot away, flying towards the exit of the Mist World.
This Underground Mist World was vast and enigmatic.
But the Bite-Moon Jiao had an extremely strong sense of direction and could always sense the location of the Dragon Palace.
Thus, even if he flew far in the mist, Li Muyang could still find the exit.
A quarter of an hour later, Li Muyang turned into a streak of white light and flew out of the underground pit that was tens of thousands of meters deep.
The outside was coincidentally at noon, but the sky was overcast, and the earth was shrouded in dark clouds, completely devoid of sunlight.
Li Muyang flew out of the underground pit and ascended into the sky.
Seeing Li Muyang’s look, the Buddha Mother smiled and said, "Is Muyang worried about this old lady? Don’t be, I’m quite well."
"After you left, White Second Master came to quarrel again, but I drove it away."
"Just that there have been some calamities on this land, which have affected me somewhat, but it’s nothing serious..."
With a gentle attitude, the Buddha Mother recounted her condition, like a generous and kind elder.
Li Muyang’s heart stirred, and he immediately continued the conversation on that topic.
"Senior, are you referring to the sudden change in the weather? Why has it become so cold beyond the borders?"
After Li Muyang asked, the Buddha Mother in the black kasaya smiled and shook her head, saying, "It’s not that it’s become so cold beyond the borders, but that the entire Tianyuan Continent has grown colder."
She looked at Li Muyang with a smile and said, "A seal of the heavens and earth has broken open, making the Evil God from the Ancient Resentment Well restless."
"On the days you went to the Underground Mist World to catch heart-eating bugs, an Evil God from the Ancient Resentment Well returned to the human world through special means."
"The sudden drop in temperature and the great change in weather are the phenomena brought about by that Evil God..."
Listening to the Buddha Mother’s narration, Li Muyang was taken aback.
"The Evil God from the Ancient Resentment Well has come to the human world?"
The Evil God from the Ancient Resentment Well was cunning and powerful; even Li Muyang, wielding a 50% instant death skill, along with the cheat account of a time-stopping exploit, couldn’t clear the level.
Now the Evil God from the Ancient Resentment Well had arrived in the human world?
Wouldn’t that spell disaster for all living beings?
Li Muyang was extremely alarmed.
The Buddha Mother, however, smiled and shook her head, saying, "It’s just one or two projections of the Evil God, not the true body descending, and they are also far from the North Land, so there’s no need for us to worry."
She looked towards Li Muyang with a smile, saying, "Compared to the Evil God of the Ancient Resentment Well, Muyang, have you finally caught enough heart-eating bugs this time?"
The Buddha Mother asked, her benevolent yet eager gaze fixed on the gourd in Li Muyang’s hand, as if she could hardly wait to take the heart-eating bugs inside.
Facing such an eager Buddha Mother, Li Muyang fell silent for a moment before speaking.
"I have indeed caught a thousand heart-eating bugs, according to the promise you made before. As long as I brought a thousand heart-eating bugs, Senior said you would teach me how to avoid being consumed by this land..."
Li Muyang picked up the gourd, but this time he didn’t throw it over.
Instead, he stood outside the Buddha Hall and said earnestly, "Now that I have the thousand heart-eating bugs, please enlighten me, Senior."
"Once I get the answer I seek, the thousand heart-eating bugs will be yours," said Li Muyang sincerely, waiting outside the grand hall for the Buddha Mother to fulfill her promise.
