Chapter 721
Pagoda Spirit
First floor! Lets go destroy the first floor! declared Mu Yu. We cant let these monsters escape the pagoda!
What about the death qi? Xiaoshuai inquired. Not even you can stop it once it escapes your control!
I dont bloody know, but I sure dont have any strategy to stop the freaks besides letting the ghost qi devour them.
You intend to let the death qi devour the entire pagoda?
Im all ears for any better suggestions.
What happens after it devours the flesh-winged horny monsters?
Uh I cant stop the berserk death qi, so Ill get back to you on that one.
The death qi devoured the floor for everyone to jump down. God forbid Mu Yu knew what floor he was on when he didnt take the proper exit. More pertinently, the monsters flew off in every direction throughout the gully and mountain to search for an exit. Meanwhile, Mu Yu hid behind a boulder that fell through the crevice.
We need to find an exit before the death qi rains down on us. Mu Yu soared to the highest spot for a view.
I found an exit! a lunar god yelled.
Mu Yu followed the horde of lunar gods to the passageway with the number seven written on it, which led them to the thirty-third floor.
We need to get back to the previous floor to use the other exit. We cant get to the first floor from here, Mu Yu informed. Crud. Every floors exit is a teleportation formation. Since the one on the previous floor just collapsed, this floors teleportation formation cant connect to it now. According to my calculations, itll take, at least, forty-two hours to return to the fourth floor. That means Gui Yuzi and the other monsters on the other floor can reach the first floor first. No, no. I need to stop focusing on just problems and find a solution.
The rest of the lunar gods had left the bland floor already, leaving just Mu Yu and company around.
Dithering here wont change anything for the better. Theres only one exit on this floor, isnt there? Qiao Xue pointed out.
As the two prepared to step into the exit, they saw a horde of lunar gods running back, screaming, Run! Run! The death qi is catching up!
The lunar god in the rear accidentally touched the death qi with its fingers, resulting in it slowly whittling away, turning into death qi in the atmosphere. The new death qi started to devour the barrier upon hitting the wall.
Out of nowhere, a lanky white hand grabbed Wood Spirit while it was navigating the void, pulling Mu Yu away. Mu Yu emerged from Wood Spirit, questioning, Who goes there?
On second look, Mu Yu learnt he was back at the foot of the mountain on the eighty-first floor. Standing along the path up the mountain was a woman in a veil of mist, resembling a portrait.
Who are you? Mu Yu asked, doing a double take. Feeling a foot slam his foot, he grumbled, Whyd you step on my foot?
She look pretty? Qiao Xue queried.
Everyone appreciates beauty, responded Mu Yu, touching his face.
Ho? Eh? Is that so?
Mu Yu raised his hands up as a sign of innocence.
The death qi originated from you. You need to fix the situation, conveyed the woman, speaking in an indifferent tone.
Who are you? Mu Yu asked.
Mu Yu suddenly felt puzzled as to how Qiao Xue managed to step on his foot when Contiguous Horizon Formation shouldve been in effect. When he checked for it, he discovered it was gone.
Shes the pagoda spirit, Xiaoshuai popped out to enlighten.
You know me? Pagoda Spirit inquired.
You have a certain qi similar to mine, though significantly weaker, answered Xiaoshuai.
Youre the pagoda spirit? Thank heavens. Ive been searching for you, remarked Mu Yu.
Youve almost destroyed my body with your death qi. You need to retract it.
Im more than happy to, but I need your assistance. You know as well as I do that we cant let those monsters escape, right? You need to destroy the first floor before they escae.
I wont follow your demands because I havent acknowledged you.
Its not an order; its a suggestion. Im sure youre aware Reverend Xuan Jizi incarcerated them in the pagoda for a reason, Mu Yu anxiously asserted.
Master told me not to involve myself with those who enter the pagoda, so I will not prevent their escape, either. The death qi, to the contrary, came from you. You, consequently, must take it back.
Reverend Xuan Jizis intent was to prevent people rescuing Ocean Fiend King, not to let those monsters go. Didnt he explicate that?
I cant remember if he told me that, Pagoda Spirit calmly and quietly replied.
You telling me you lost your memories?
Due to the damage the death qi has done unto me, Ive suddenly lost my memories of lots of things.
Mu Yu palmed his face. In that case, let me remind you: he said not to let those flesh-winged horny monsters leave Fiend-Sealing Pagoda! You need to seal the exit on the first floor now!
I dont recall him telling me not to let anyone leave.
Im about to give up, Mu Yu muttered, recalling to himself, Wait, Xiaoshuai is a sword spirit and lost a chunk of his memories. Thank heavens he has a better memory than her.
You must recollect the death qi. Thats my purpose in finding you.
Mu Yu quickly engaged his brain, then said, I can, but I cant do it on my own. I need your help if Im going to recollect it.
All right.
Right. First, seal all exits! Since the pagoda spirit just kept looking at him, Mu Yu urged, What are you waiting for?!
Your other requests.
Complete request number one for a start!
I already have.
Mu Yus palm met his face again and then huffed a big breath. Number two: I need control over the entire pagoda.
I cannot do that. I havent acknowledged you as my master.
