Chapter 814: Two Roads

"Shi Mu, although your cultivation base has reached the middle stage of the holy rank, but now that there are frequent wars in the river star field, and the journey is far away, it is really dangerous to leave the clan rashly. You...you should think about it again. After all, you I have a special status..." Baizang said with a worried look on his face.

"Elder Baizang doesn't need to persuade you anymore. Shi Mu has made up his mind. This matter is the best way to solve the current predicament. No matter what, I will try it. As for safety, I am sure." Shi Mu said to Bai Zang smiled and said.

"You've already decided, you must go?" Grand Elder Bai Pu raised his brows and asked.

"Yes, I wonder if the Great Elder has any information about this celebration?" Shi Mu nodded solemnly, and asked, changing the subject.

"In that case, okay! The Tianfeng clan mainly lives on Suzaku, a main star in the southern part of the Milky Way. Three months later, the celebration will be held in Fengming Valley, the sacred place of the clan." Bai Pu pondered for a while. , nodded.

"Thank you." Shi Mu said with a bow.

Bai Zang's lips moved slightly, and he wanted to persuade Shi Mu a few words, but when he saw Shi Mu shaking his head at him with a smile, he had no choice but to give up, bowed his hands to the two of them, and walked out of the hall on his own.

Shi Muben also wanted to leave, but before he reached the gate of the hall, he heard Bai Pu's voice behind him:

"Shi Mu, leave slowly."

"Elder, what else is there?" Shi Mu turned around, walked back to the center of the hall, and asked in surprise.

"I don't understand something." Bai Pu said, looking at Shi Mu.

"The Great Elder wants to ask, why do I have to go to the Tianfeng Clan?" Shi Mu smiled slightly and said:

Bai Pu is silent.

"Don't worry, Great Elder. I went to the Tianfeng Clan this time to seek a way out for the entire Mitian Giant Ape Clan. However, apart from what I said before, there are indeed some other factors, but I can't say it clearly at this moment. Please forgive me." Shi Mu said after pondering for a while.

"Since that great battle, the vitality of the clan has been severely injured, and it has not recovered after thousands of years. Many clansmen have lost their fighting spirit and do not want to increase casualties. Although I am the Great Elder, I cannot forcibly disobey the clansmen I hope you can understand." Bai Pu said in a deep voice, somewhat helpless in his words.

"Shi Mu understands, it's hard to embarrass the Great Elder." Shi Mu nodded slightly.

Bai Pu raised one hand, and lightly tapped the purple red wooden stick in the void in front of him, a ball of light immediately lit up on the top of the wooden stick, and a blood-red crystal jade hairpin emerged from it, and flew down to Shi Mu's body forward.

Shi Mu was startled, raised his hand to take Yuchai in his hand, and looked at it carefully.

The head of this jade hairpin is like a phoenix, and the carving is lifelike. The body of the hairpin is as transparent as crystal and warm as jade, with strands of red filaments distributed inside, which looks like bloodstains, very strange.

"What's the meaning of the Great Elder?" Shi Mu looked up at Bai Pu and asked a little puzzled.

"This phoenix blood jade hairpin is named 'Nirvana'. According to legend, it was formed by the blood essence of the first Tianfeng clan leader when he was reborn in Nirvana. It contains a strand of pure Tianfeng blood. It is one of the several sacred artifacts of the Tianfeng clan. , is very important to the Tianfeng Clan." Bai Pu said.

"How can the sacred artifact of the Tianfeng clan be in the giant ape clan?" Shi Mu asked a little puzzled.

"This is the token sent by the Tianfeng Clan and the Giant Ape Clan when they formed an alliance back then. You should take this with you when you go this time." Bai Pu pondered for a moment, with a look of nostalgia on his face, and said.

"This thing is so valuable, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to carry it." Shi Mu quickly waved his hand and declined.

"Our giant ape clan is closed here, and we have not been alive for a long time. We have not even received an invitation for the Tianfeng clan to hold the saint's succession ceremony. If you don't have this phoenix hairpin, how can you enter Tianfeng?" A clan?" Bai Pu said, looking down at Shi Mu.

"Thank you, Elder." Upon hearing this, Shi Mu didn't say anything else. After carefully putting away the Nirvana jade hairpin, he bowed his hands to Bai Pu to thank him.

"Hehe, why bother to say thank you. Since you are the fourth elder of my clan, you represent our giant ape clan. Remember, although our clan has fallen and is far from what it used to be, in front of other clans, But it must not destroy the prestige." Bai Pu suddenly raised his voice and said loudly.

"Elder, don't worry. Elder Lao will continue to worry about the matters in the clan. Although the spies in the court have temporarily withdrawn, I'm afraid they won't let it go, and there are some undercurrents in the clan, and they are not in the same mind," Shi Mu solemnly said. Said.

"I will pay attention to this matter. You can leave with peace of mind. If those heavenly spies dare to show up, the old man will not let you go lightly. Don't blame the people in the clan. Some of them want to stay in a corner, and some want You have to hide your strength and bide your time, so that you are so delusional that you can't see the situation that our giant ape family is facing now." Bai Pu said.

"Shi Mu understands." Shi Mu nodded and said.

"It's a long way to go, and the situation in the star field is turbulent. I don't know how many disturbances there will be. Do you have any requests or needs? I will try my best to satisfy you." Bai Pu said.

"By the way, I don't know if the Great Elder knows how to get to Suzaku Star from us?" Shi Mu thought of something and asked quickly.

"As far as I know, if you want to go to Suzaku Star, you must first pass through Bitter Forest Star." Bai Pu said after a little thought.

"Bitter Forest Star?" Shi Mu pondered.

"That's right. The Milky Way Starfield is long and slender. Kulin Star is located at the key point of this starfield, and it is a must pass. You can also inquire about more information there." Bai Pu said.

"Bitter Forest Star? The name seems familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere." Shi Mu frowned slightly.

He seemed to have seen this star somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"Hehe, this bitter forest star is indeed a place with a long history in the Tianhe star field. It was originally one of the ancient tribes of the Eight Desolations, the main star of the flying mouse tribe." Bai Pu said with a smile.

"Haven't the Flying Rat Clan disappeared long ago?" Shi Mu asked.

"It's hard to say. You know, the Flying Mouse clan was the richest clan among the ancient clans of the Eight Desolation, and it can be regarded as a different kind. Most of its clan members are as elite as ghosts, and maybe like our giant ape clan, they lived in seclusion. Yes, maybe." Bai Pu said noncommittally.

"What about after reaching Kulin Star?" Shi Mu nodded slightly and continued to ask.

"After you get there, you have two routes to choose from. One of them is relatively short, and it only takes about half a month. It's just that many planetary teleportation formations on this route may be damaged due to years of war. , so it may be necessary to take a battleship to cross in the middle. And because of the impact of the war, there are often chaotic storms raging in this star sea, so it is not safe." Bai Pu said.

"Then there is another one?" Shi Mu asked.

"The other one needs to take a detour, and you can't go through the sea of ​​stars in the first route, so the route is longer and takes about a month, but it is relatively safe. There are still three months left before the celebration of the Tianfeng Clan Time, so if you go here, you have plenty of time. These two roads are here, you can see for yourself." Bai Pu said, taking out a jade slip from his bosom with one hand, sticking it on his forehead, and then throwing it away. Gave it to Shi Mu.

"Thank you, First Elder, for your guidance." Shi Mu put away the jade slips, bowed and said.

"Be careful when you go, no matter what happens, you must return safely." Bai Pu's old face showed a little dignified color, and he urged again:

Shi Mu nodded in response, then took his leave and left.

As soon as he came out of the hall, he saw Cai'er flying over with fluttering wings.

"Shitou, what are you doing in there? Why did you stay there for so long? I think the other monkeys have already come out." Cai'er asked.

"Let's go back and talk about it." Shi Mu said.

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and summoned the Dragon Feather Speeding Vehicle, and flew towards the cave with Cai'er.

The original cave has been destroyed, and the newly opened cave is just a large grotto. Since then, Bai Yao and Bai Feng have also been transferred away for some reason, and no longer serve as Shi Mu's attendants.

After entering the grotto, Shi Mu said to Cai'er: "We have to pack up and leave here."

"Leave? Where are you going?" Cai'er asked in surprise.

"Suzaku Star, Tianfeng Clan." Shi Mu replied.

"Great, Shitou, we are going to find your wife..."

Before Cai'er finished speaking, a ray of light lit up in the grotto, the void fluctuated, and a graceful figure appeared beside Shi Mu.

"Yanluo?" Shi Mu exclaimed in surprise.

The person who came was Yan Luo, who was wearing a set of silver armor, which set off her exquisite figure perfectly, and glanced at Cai'er with a pair of beautiful eyes, but seemed to have no emotion at all.

Cai'er was a little nervous when she saw her, and quickly flew to Shi Mu's shoulder, muttering in a low voice: "Shitou, you summoned her before, but she didn't come, but now she suddenly appeared. Could it be that I heard..."

"Don't talk too much, go out and watch the door." Shi Mu raised his hand and flicked Cai'er off his shoulder, and ordered.

There seemed to be something wrong with Yan Luo's expression. He appeared suddenly at this moment, afraid that he had something to tell him.

Although Cai'er has a poisonous tongue, she has great eyesight. Seeing that the situation is not right, she immediately slipped out.

After chasing Cai'er away, Shi Mu took a closer look at Yan Luo, but found that her complexion was a little pale, and her breath seemed to be a little unstable.

"Yan Luo, what's wrong with you, why do you look like you've been seriously injured? Did something happen?" Shi Mu asked with concern with a flash of his eyes.

"You don't have to worry about my affairs. I came this time just to tell you that the Milky Way Starfield is far more dangerous than you imagined. Besides, I may not be able to help you these days, you yourself Take care." Yan Luo waved his hand casually and said.

Shi Mu opened his mouth, wanting to ask something, but in the end he didn't ask.

He knew that, with Yan Luo's character, if he told him not to worry, it would be futile for him to ask any more.

"What did Cai'er just say...?" Yan Luo asked after hesitating for a moment.

"I'm going to go to Suzaku Star where the Tianfeng Clan is located. Zhong Xiu may be there." Shi Mu was stunned for a moment, then he reacted and replied hastily.

After hearing this, Yan Luo nodded slightly, without any change in expression, just said "Take care" lightly, and his body turned into a ray of light and disappeared in place.
