At that moment, the blood-colored fog was spreading in all directions on Mars. It covered the skies and swept through everything. Outside the main city, the blood-colored fog was extremely dense.
Such a drastic change not only caught the attention of the Martian Colony Governor, but even the Federation noticed the changes on Mars immediately. The President of the Federation, Duan Muque, was breathing heavily. He wanted to contact Mars, but communications were cut off.
However, he believed that no matter what had caused the changes on Mars, the Martian Colony Governor should be able to suppress and resolve them. At the same time, he also believed that Mars' resources were sufficient to do so.
However, neither he nor the Martian Colony Governor knew that the target of the blood-colored fog wasn't the main city, but … the new city!
This was a trap that the so-called State Preceptor, the black-robed man from underground, had set up to kill Wang Baole because he couldn't do it himself!
Every time the blood-colored fog and wind flared up, it would deplete quite a bit of his essence. That was especially so when the fog and wind covered a large area. However, his desire to kill Wang Baole was also extremely strong. He could bear it no matter how high the price he had to pay.
Therefore, the blood-colored fog and wind outside the main city was even thicker in the sky outside the new city and in all directions. It covered the sky and covered the earth, causing countless cultivators to tremble in fear. When they looked up, the sky was filled with blood-colored fog. Their vision couldn't penetrate it. They could only vaguely see the fog churning, and countless strange cries could be heard.
Just as everyone was reeling in shock, Chen Mu's voice reverberated in the minds of all the cultivators who had been parasitized. The bodies of the Five Generation Sky Clan cultivators who had been parasitized trembled violently. Their eyes were still bright and full of life, but in the next instant, they dimmed. It was as if they had lost all control of their bodies, and all of them were frozen in their previous positions.
Green veins could be clearly seen on their faces. Perhaps they weren't green veins, but they were squirming rapidly. It was as if some strange creature existed within these cultivators' bodies.
The creature had absorbed their life force, their cultivation bases, and their flesh and blood. As soon as it awoke, it erupted with power, burrowing out of their skin. Shockingly, it was possible to see numerous tendrils bursting out of it. Their bodies withered rapidly, transforming into nothing more than ash. At the same time, a blood-colored seed appeared on their heads!
After the blood-colored seed appeared, it charged into the sky. Outside the sky was a blood-colored fog that covered the sky!
Originally, the changes in this area would have attracted the attention of the other areas. However, in the instant that these blood-colored seeds soared into the sky, a series of loud explosions suddenly erupted in Fang Jing's autonomous zone.
Along with the explosion, countless blood-red rays of light shot into the sky. These blood-red rays of light were not seeds, but beams of light!
Taking a closer look, in the center of Fang Jing's autonomous zone, which was next to Chen Mu's, there was an area that was originally a public square. Amidst the loud rumbling sound, a crack appeared on the ground. The crack spread and formed a huge crater.
Amidst the rumbling sound, a huge catacomb was formed in an instant!
The blood-red rays of light were emitted from the catacomb. At the same time, countless ferocious beasts and corpses from the catacomb rushed out of the catacomb. As they spread out in all directions, they destroyed all life in their sight.
This catacomb was created by the black-robed man under Chen Mu's request. His purpose was to cover up the deaths of his own people and the origin of the puppets. At the same time, he would throw all the problems of pursuing the culprits to Fang Jing!
The reason why he chose Fang Jing and not Wen Huai was because Wen Huai was under great pressure from Liu Daobin. It was difficult for him to succeed. Only Fang Jing seemed to obey Wang Baole's orders, but she was very lazy. This gave Chen Mu a chance.
And his plan was indeed effective at this moment. With the eruption of the catacomb and the shaking of the entire new city, it perfectly covered up the abnormal changes in the bodies of the parasitized cultivators in his autonomous zone.
As for the blood-red beams of light that rose into the sky, it also confused the parasitized cultivators of the Five Generation Sky Clan. After their flesh and blood turned to ash, the beams of light rose into the air, penetrated the array formation, and entered the seeds within the blood-red fog.
All these changes happened in the blink of an eye. The eruption of the catacomb, the death of the parasitized cultivators, the blood-red seeds and beams of light rose into the sky, the array formation shook and was corroded. It seemed like someone had used their authority to cause flaws and loopholes in the array formation. In any case, under the influence of the fog, it was difficult to find out the exact cause. In fact, even if the matter was dealt with perfectly, it would be difficult to find out the truth. Therefore, with no way to stop it, the sky rumbled. Beams of blood-red light and blood-red seeds shot into the fog. The blood-red fog in the sky churned continuously, as if there was a giant within, about to attack the new city.
At the same time, the donkey was in the same situation. Its body trembled violently, and its eyes widened in disbelief. The large number of dandelions in its body erupted at the same time, sucking the donkey dry. The donkey was a little special. Perhaps it was because it had eaten the arm of the little boy in the catacomb, but its body didn't turn to ash. Instead, when the large number of seeds in its body erupted, it transformed into … a gigantic seed that surpassed all others!
Although this seed was also blood-red, its appearance was astonishing. After it was formed, it rose into the sky like a cannonball. It penetrated the array formation and flew into the blood-red fog and wind!
As all the blood-red seeds entered the fog and the array formation was broken, countless cries of surprise came from the new city. Kongdao, Lin Tianhao, Kim Do-myung, Wen Huai, and the others were all shocked. They were in different positions and immediately began to defend themselves instinctively.
Li Waner, in particular, didn't lose her composure at this critical juncture. Instead, she immediately issued a series of orders, including supporting Fang Jing's autonomous zone and sealing the catacombs.
As for Fang Jing herself, her face was as pale as a sheet. However, she was different from Li Yi. Right now, Fang Jing's eyes were bloodshot. She didn't retreat at all. Instead, as if she had gone mad, she led all her subordinates to fight against the beast tide in the catacombs with all their might. She tried to stall for time and wait for help. At the same time, she also took the initiative to send her Dao Protectors to try and seal the catacombs.
In an instant, the entire new city was operating at high efficiency. Large numbers of cultivators headed straight for Fang Jing's autonomous zone. It was also at this time that Wang Baole left his residence. He had an extremely solemn expression on his face. He felt that something was amiss from the bottom of his heart. Just as he was about to use the array formation to check for changes in the other catacombs' exits to prevent new catacombs from emerging, Wang Baole's expression suddenly changed. He raised his head abruptly and looked towards the sky. His eyes widened instantly!
At this moment, not only Wang Baole, but also countless cultivators in the entire new city sensed something. When they looked up, they were all shocked. Many of them even cried out in surprise.
"That's … that's …"
"Oh my God, what the hell is that?!"
Right before everyone's eyes, as the fog tumbled about in the sky, the shadow of a gigantic creature could be vaguely seen. That shadow seemed to be charging over swiftly from within the fog. In the end, with a loud bang, as the fog tumbled about violently in all directions, a gigantic python head charged out of the fog with an incredibly ghastly presence and crashed into the Rune of the new city.
With a loud bang, more than half of the array formation shattered, as if it would not be able to hold on for much longer. As it crashed into the array formation, the complete form of the creature could be seen clearly. It was a gigantic python that shocked the heavens!
Its entire body was blood-red, and it seemed to be able to fuse with the fog. Its eyes shone with savagery and madness, and if anyone looked closely, they would be able to see the agitation and cruelty within them.
That gaze belonged to … Chen Mu!
Chen Mu might have been in seclusion in his chamber at that moment, but when the blood-red seed flew into the fog and fused together to form the python, his consciousness seemed to have been pulled into the python's body. It was as if the python had become another body of his.
This feeling made Chen Mu incredibly excited. He was now completely certain that the black-robed man had not lied to him, and that he could indeed control the puppet.
The appearance of the fog had sealed off all communications, which gave him enough time to kill all the people he wanted to kill. If he only killed Wang Baole, it would be too obvious, and it would not be an accident. That was why he also wanted to kill Kongdao, Lin Tianhao, and Kim Do-myung. He was even prepared to kill Wen Huai and Fang Jing. There was also … Li Waner!
