Chen Mu had thought he could stay peacefully in Thousand Lantern City until he returned to the Netherworld, but an unexpected problem arose.
By the Bottomless Pool in Thousand Lantern City, Chen Mu sensed the still vastly disparate Spiritual Mechanism reserves and could not help sighing.
"This is troublesome, isn't it?"
After more than two months of all-out hunting, the Mutant Beasts and Demon Monsters in the waters around the small island had basically been wiped out. They could no longer catch more prey.
At first, only the number of prey around the island had declined. Later, even when they ventured farther away, they still could not catch much.
Worse still, two teams had encountered powerful Demon Monsters in succession. Had they not used the Mountain Bearing Scripture to fly away, those two groups of Yinlings would already have been buried in the Blood Sea.
"We should move," Shen Yan said calmly, clearly having anticipated this.
"That's the only choice." Chen Mu sighed.
According to his plans, the best option had been to stay in one place, accumulate enough Spiritual Mechanism, and leave Nether Demon Heaven directly.
But reality was not imagination. The Demon Monsters in the Blood Sea could not be harvested without end.
Yet whenever he thought of the dangers they might encounter during the move, he felt uneasy and could not help baring his teeth.
"If only Mutant Beasts and Demon Monsters could sprout in batch after batch like chives. What a pity..."
Having decided to move, Chen Mu did not delay. He dug the entire Wooden Cabin on the island into Thousand Lantern City and set off early the next morning.
This time, he did not use Vertical Rainbow Light. It was too conspicuous, and it consumed mana.
Instead, he used the Five Elements Evasion
