Inside the cavern, the dense demonic aura almost congealed into black clouds, and the oppressive atmosphere was suffocating.
Chu Mo's gaze locked onto the [Baleful Yin Treasure Jade], his heart pounding uncontrollably.
Not far away, the demon known as the [White Emperor] drew a thread of pure yin qi from the Precious Jade with every long, slow breath.
His thunderous snores exploded against Chu Mo's heart.
Chu Mo held his breath, withdrew his gaze, and carefully surveyed his surroundings.
Strange. Why haven't I seen any sign of "Law"? Could it be somewhere else?
Chu Mo was puzzled. He could clearly "smell" its intense presence, yet he could find no trace of it.
Afraid of disturbing the demon emperor, he dared not release his divine thought to investigate. He could only search inch by inch with his naked eyes. After a while, his gaze fell on the spot where the White Tiger lay.
He faintly sensed that the presence of "Law" was seeping out from there, little by little.
This is trouble, Chu Mo lamented inwardly. He could hardly move the White Tiger out of the way. If the tiger so much as breathed on him, he would be done for.
Ming He, the Grand Array... His thoughts raced, and the beginnings of a plan took shape.
Before that, however, he had to secure the Baleful Yin Treasure Jade, lest his plan fail and leave him empty-handed on both fronts.
Chu Mo glanced at the soundly sleeping White Tiger, took a deep breath, and suppressed his presence to the utmost.
He lifted his feet lightly and set them down without a sound, inching toward the Baleful Yin Treasure Jade. Every step was exceedingly cautious, and he kept the White Tiger firmly in the corner of his eye, terrified of waking him.
