Chapter 217 Discovering the Demon King's Traces
The next day.
Zhao Mu stood on the top of the Demon King's Palace, looking at the crowds of demon people in the streets and alleys of Wan Yao City, who were constantly rushing towards the teleportation array.
The portal has been opened.
Xiong Yourong arrived in the Southern Region through the teleportation array yesterday.
She had to go to the Zhao family first, bring Zhao Mu's letter, communicate with the Zhao family, and prepare to welcome the incoming demon tribe.
The process was very smooth. Although the Zhao family didn't quite understand why Zhao Mu brought so many monsters into the Zhao family's territory, everyone in the Zhao family had completely deified Zhao Mu and believed in his orders completely.
Hundreds of millions of demons may seem like a lot, but the Zhao family's territory is huge, and simply marking out an uninhabited area is enough to settle down hundreds of millions of demons.
Even in an uninhabited area, the resource conditions are countless times better than those in the abyss.
"Master, we estimate that we can relocate 50 million demon people today, including those from Black Wind Mountain. The entire relocation project will take about ten days."
Xiong Yourong spoke to Zhao Mu with great respect.
During her trip to the Zhao family yesterday, she met her father and gained a deep understanding of Zhao Mu's strength.
Under the influence of her father, Xiong Yourong's loyalty to Zhao Mu has increased significantly, and now she even calls him "master".
"I leave it to you. Keep an eye on these demon tribes for me. After the migration is complete, I will hand over all the demon tribes to you for management and make you the new Great Demon King."
Zhao Mu patted Xiong Yourong's shoulder, and couldn't help but stare into the abyss for a few more seconds.
"Thank you for your trust, Master. I will definitely not let you down!"
Xiong Yourong held his head high and chest out, looking excited.
So sensible.
Zhao Mu nodded with satisfaction.
After watching Xiong Yourong leave, Zhao Mu recalled Xingtuan and rode it to circle around Wan Yao City.
He has been on high alert these days, guarding against Xitfan's real body coming to kill him.
But until now, there has been no sign.
Zhao Mu didn't expect Xitefan to be so patient.
His demon kingdom is about to be hollowed out by Zhao Mu, but he still doesn't take any action. Does he really intend to stay alone in the abyss?
Or maybe he had self-awareness and knew that even if he took action he would not be a match for Zhao Mu, so he simply slipped away.
"Zhao Mu."
A purple light suddenly flew closer. Ji Zi called Zhao Mu and said, "I found some clues about the Dark Phoenix in the database of the Demon Country. Based on these clues, I speculated that some descendants of the Dark Phoenix may still be living in the center of the Abyss Continent."
"Okay, I'll go with you."
"I haven't said it yet."
"Your business is my business. Whether you ask me or not, I will definitely help you."
Ji Zi felt warm in her heart, and her eyes softened when she looked at Zhao Mu.
"Okay, let's go now."
Zhao Mu nodded and patted Xingtuan: "You stay here and monitor the demon tribe for me. If there is any unrest, you will directly take action to resolve it."
"Kuya!"
Xingtuan roared and watched Zhao Mu and Ji Zi leave.
Ji Zi took the initiative to grab Zhao Mu's arm, and a spindle-shaped purple crystal similar to a skateboard condensed under her feet, flying towards the center of the Abyss Continent at an extremely fast speed.
Zhao Mu also wanted to be alone with Ji Zi along the way, so that he could chat with her more and improve his favorability towards her.
As a result, Ji Zi's speed was too fast, and he didn't even have the chance to open his mouth. As long as he opened his mouth slightly, a strong gust of wind would rush into his lungs, and even if he condensed a spiritual power shield, it would be useless.
This is the full strength of a powerful Divine Emperor.
Ji Zi's solo flying speed at this moment is estimated to be more than ten times faster than Xing Qun.
At such a fast speed, in less than a day, the two of them crossed a distance of tens of millions of kilometers and arrived at the center of the abyss.
The air here has become thick.
Countless ashes and dust were floating in the air.
A strong breath of the abyss permeated the air.
Ji Zi had to slow down and condense a purple fire shield to isolate the poisonous abyss ashes.
A huge volcano gradually appeared in the field of vision.
"That's right there. It's the volcano at the center of the abyss. The demons call it the Ghost Spring. It's said to be the entrance to the underworld and the final destination of the soul after death."
The Netherworld...
Zhao Mu knew in the ghost nest that the underworld really existed.
It is reasonable that there is an entrance to the underworld in the abyss.
"Um……"
Zhao Mu suddenly frowned.
He pulled Ji Zi down quickly, using his spiritual power to cover up the breath of the two.
"What's wrong?" Ji Zi asked puzzledly.
"There's a remnant of demonic aura nearby, and it's a large demon with very ancient and pure demonic power. If I'm not mistaken, it's most likely the true form of the Demon King Xitfan."
"That's a coincidence. You must be uneasy if you don't get rid of the demon king. We have run into him by accident this time. We will definitely be able to take him down in one fell swoop." Ji Zi said with a smile.
Zhao Mu was also quite surprised.
"The other party's aura is motionless, it seems that he is practicing in seclusion here. As long as we approach carefully, he will have no chance to escape."
"You want me to cooperate with you?"
Zhao Mu pondered for a moment and said, "The only thing we have to be wary of is that the other party has the means of instant teleportation, which makes it very difficult to catch him."
"give it to me."
Ji Zi took out a magic weapon similar to a Rubik's Cube and said, "This thing can disrupt the structure of space and hinder space transmission. Once activated, any transmission array will be unable to function."
And this good stuff?
I'll have to study it carefully later.
"Okay, with this treasure, Xi Tefan will have no way to escape, and he will definitely die today."
Zhao Mu and Ji Zi looked at each other and ran towards the volcano.
After getting closer, Zhao Mu discovered that the volcano was extremely huge, at least over 30,000 meters high, and surrounded by flat land. The existence of only this volcano made it appear even larger.
Black smoke continued to spew out of the crater, and the ashes in the sky came from this.
The ground was covered with a thick layer of volcanic ash, containing strong fluctuations of the power of the abyss.
With the help of the power of the abyss, the arrival of Zhao Mu and Ji Zi did not cause any disturbance.
"There's a cave leading to the interior of the volcano. Xi Tefan should be inside. Please wait for a moment. I will set up a large formation near the volcano to prevent Xi Tefan from escaping through other passages."
Facing an extremely cautious enemy like Xitfan, Zhao Mu felt that he should be more prepared.
This is a rare opportunity. If he escapes, it will be difficult to find him again.
"Go ahead. I'll keep an eye on him for you. If Xi Tefan shows up, I'll take action myself."
Ji Zi had not had any chance to take action since arriving at the abyss. Although she was not a warlike person, she was also a little itchy.
Zhao Mu nodded and left immediately.
He circled around the volcano and indeed found several hidden cave entrances.
The terrain inside the volcano must be very complicated. If we don't prepare in advance, it is really possible that Xitfan will escape.
"I'll set up a net to catch the turtle in the jar!"
