Shadow Hack
chapter-448

In the western shore of Blue Moon Island's mid sea region, several hundred six-limbed enormous apes could be seen. With their aqua armor and more than ten meter long metal pikes in their hands, they were hunting down vicious beast grade monsters in small squads.

There was also a clear division of work among them. There were many patrol squads on full alert as well as a squad just for transporting goods. The enormous apes of it were entering their base of operations, a nine-layered pagoda, in a steady flow. After Li Yunmu arrived, he was soon discovered by the patrolling squads.

"Notify Ba Ape to immediately call everyone here, have them stop hunting immediately!"

Li Yunmu didn't bother wasting time on nonsense. He immediately gave his commands to the patrol squads. Only then did those the patrol squad recognize that it was their master who had come. They immediately reacted and began to howl impatiently, each one trying to spread the orders as quickly as possible.

After hearing it, Li Yunmu rushed to the pagoda. There were already many ape gods who had convened here after receiving the command.

"Master, these days we have hunted many vicious bests, and everything is going smoothly. Why are you stopping us?"

Mountain Ape excitedly rushed over while communicated using his mental connection with Li Yunmu. There was a stupid expression on his face throughout it all.

"Don't ask questions; we are facing a powerful enemy. Everyone has to return here immediately. Spread this as fast as possible," Li Yunmu said to Mountain Ape and also Ba Ape as well as Benevolent Ape who had come to him.

Instantly, the commanders of the ape gods began to howl anxiously. They blew enormous white sea snail shells which were used specifically to transfer information underwater. After they did so a few times, the entire seabed was shaken.

Within a few hours, Ba Ape quickly checked the crowd and finally concluded that all the ape gods had returned.

Li Yunmu then counted the ape gods, going up to three hundred and thirty-three. His heart sunk slightly. It seemed like in the past few months that he had been away, there had been some casualties among the ape gods. Compared to the last time when he had come here, there were eleven missing.

But Li Yunmu had been mentally prepared for it. Although he had prepared aqua combat armor for them as well as provided them with good weapons, they were in combat with the vicious grade beasts at every moment. With such a lifestyle, some casualties couldn't be avoided.

"Everyone, come as close to me as possible," Li Yunmu commanded.

After all the ape gods converged around him, he quickly pulled them into his heavenly world. He then entered the Refining Pagoda.

He quickly took the blood of the vicious beasts which had been refined during the time and placed it in his heavenly world. After that he walked out and used the special incantation to uninstall the Refining Pagoda.

With his words, the pagoda, which was more than nine floors high and had a diameter of more than ten meters, changed back into a small tower which he placed into his storage space.

After finishing this task, Li Yunmu moved to the surface and, without even turning his head back, quickly moved toward a small isle in the territory of Blue Moon Island.

His current destination was known as Blue Underworld Island. It was similar in size to Azure Dragon Island, which Li Yunmu had visited previously and which was one of the several hundred small islands under the control of Blue Moon Sect.

The difference between the two of them was that Azure Dragon Island was two thousand nautical miles away from Blue Moon Island while Blue Underworld Island was around one hundred and twenty nautical miles away.

Given Li Yunmu's physical strength of more than fifty oxen, he only needed half an hour to cover that distance if he was in a rush.

"Faster, I can move even faster!"

There was a fine line between life and death. At that time, Li Yunmu was exerting his full strength.

After erupting forth with a strength of fifty three oxen together with a flux energy strength of one hundred and thirty something points, he was like an arrow shooting above the North Blue. His speed while seeming was fast enough to match up with a three hundred meter large cruise ship.

But in the end, he had still taken a long time to gather and collect the ape gods dispersed in all directions.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from behind him. "It's him. The one in front of us is Li Yunmu. Quickly, chase after him, Elder Zhang has commanded that whoever captures this person will be greatly rewarded by him."

The loud shout echoed in the boundless North Blue like a thunderbolt. Without even turning his head, Li Yunmu could sense the excitement and bloodthirst in the voices of those chasing him.

He turned his head with difficulty and took a look. When he did so, he saw a megalodon-shaped enormous beast roughly a nautical mile away carrying around ten people.

After careful inspection, he realized that those people were adorning black clothes while possessing dark green capes with a moon painted on them. It was enough for Li Yunmu's heart to sink slightly.

At the same time, he also breathed out a sigh of relief.

The first wave of people sent to catch him had taken a few hours to leave and find him. On top of that, this group wearing black clothes and draped in dark green capes was probably made up of elite inner disciples picked from the thirty residential regions for inner disciples. They all were chosen as substitutes for the sect's core disciples.

They were only behind the core disciples by one step. The only thing they lacked was entering the great flux expert realm. With just one look, Li Yunmu was well aware of his situation. It seemed like Elder Zhang still wasn't certain about his, the culprit who had murdered his only treasured son Zhang Yuan, involvement.

Otherwise, the characters rushing after him wouldn't just be substitute candidates for core disciples, but rather the true core disciples of Blue Moon Island.

In the same vein, if that elder was certain that he had killed Zhang Yuan, the order wouldn't have been to capture him, but to take his life.

Elder Zhang should have discovered that only he had returned and was suspicious, but didn't know the true facts, which was why he was erring on caution.

But even so, Li Yunmu felt an unprecedented crisis.

It has to be known that each of the people after him was a well known figure in their residential region. None of the people chasing after him were easy to deal with; after all, they occupied one of the front ten rooms in each residential regions.

Given Li Yunmu's strength, he had good odds of success against dealing with one of them. He could barely fight against two, but it was impossible for him to fight against three at once.
