The Portal of Wonderland - Chapter 206

Chapter 206
Shi Mu still wasn’t satisfied . So, he pulled out the black blade from the ground near his foot . He then connected the blade to the short stick . An eight feet long hilted blade appeared in front of his eyes as a result .




His eyes swept over the seventy or eighty feet high boulder that lay nearby . His stature flashed, and darted towards the boulder with great speed – as if an arrow had been shot from a bow .
Shi Mu was now only ten feet away from the boulder . Suddenly, he sprang-up from the ground, and pounced towards the boulder while holding the long blade in his hands in order to hack it down .
A layer of glaring flame flashed on the surface of the blade before it had reached the boulder . Then, the flame transformed into a blazing cloud of fire . Bursts of red flames scuttled from inside, and crashed onto the boulder .
‘Bang!’ A series of loud and explosive sounds continued to ring for a while .
Almost half of the boulder was blown into small smithereens within a fraction of a second . The flying crumbs of the boulder were wrapped in red flames . They quickly transformed into black gravels in mid-air .
‘Bang!’ A loud sound rang out in the air once again .
It was closely followed by the long blade that hacked at the remaining-half of the boulder . The boulder blasted into small pieces as a wisp of gigantic force plummeted down on it . A scalding airwave proliferated around in a violent manner . It filled the sky with tiny gravels and dust which started to flutter in the air .
The dust finally settled down . The seventy or eighty feet tall boulder had vanished from its place by then .
Shi Mu looked pleased and contented . He raised his hilted blade with both hands towards his shoulder . After that, he drifted away in the direction of his cave-dwelling .
Shi Mu stood in the living room of his cave-dwelling after a short while . He was gazing at the large and spacious area inside the cave . His heart became overwhelmed with emotions as he recollected every little detail of the time when he was merely a martial warrior . And now, he had become a senior disciple of the Sect .
"Mother, your son Mu will soon become a true warrior with an unbeatable spirit," he muttered to himself .
Suddenly, an elegant and beautiful silhouette of a woman floated into his mind . His heart was stirred-up . He felt an urge to blurt out everything that was on his mind in front of someone .
But then, he had a headache as he thought of the clamorous parrot Cai .
"I got it!"
Suddenly, an idea crossed his mind, and a trace of smile glittered across his face .
Then, he started to read an incantation loudly .
A mass of black smoke soon emerged in the hall out of nowhere . Yan Luo’s silhouette appeared in the hall thereafter . Two clusters of blue flames flickered in its eye sockets in an irregular manner .
Shi Mu was surprised to see a green flower on Yan Luo’s head . It was emitting a faint-green smoke .
Suddenly, the temperature inside the hall declined without any reason . Moreover, a wisp of inexplicable cold aura pervaded inside the hall .




The source of this queer cold aura was probably the beautiful green flower .
Shi Mu had an instinctive feeling that this green flower wasn’t ordinary .
"Yan Luo, we . . . can talk, right?" Shi Mu gazed at Yan Luo and asked .
The two blue flames within Yan Luo’s eye sockets throbbed as it looked at Shi Mu . A clear voice resounded in its mind after a short while .
"… Yes . "
Shi Mu’s heart fluttered with gladness . Yan Luo could only express his simplest thought . But, that thought was enough to make Shi Mu happy .
He was fired-up . He recounted how he had acquired the first place in the Sect’s annual competition in one breath . He also shared how his status in the Black Demon Sect had underwent a series of astonishing changes after he became the senior disciple of the Sect . In addition, he couldn’t refrain himself from talking about the Demon Witch of Tian Yin whom he had been missing a lot these days . He blurted out all these matters before Yan Luo .
Yan Luo kept on listening to him . It would occasionally say "Yes" or "Good" in response . But, it was still enough to fill Shi Mu’s heart with exhilaration .
Shi Mu then took Yan Luo on a stroll to show his cave-dwelling . He continued to introduce various things to Yan Luo as they walked . Shi Mu’s action looked like a host who was introducing his house to his guest; it seemed as if Shi Mu was taking pleasure in this .
They soon returned to the living room . Yan Luo tilted its head, and gazed at the black meteoric-iron blade; it was resting against the corner of the hall . The soul-flames in its eyes throbbed, and its body moved . A shadow flashed, and Yan Luo appeared in that corner .
Shi Mu was startled to see this .
Yan Luo then looked around while standing motionless . It stretched out its left hand, and stroked the black meteoric blade gently .
Shi Mu walked over to Yan Luo’s side . Suddenly, an idea crossed his mind . He asked, "Yan Luo, the flower on your head looks very beautiful . Can I take a look at it?"
"No!"
Yan Luo whirled around . The soul-flames in its eyes flickered . Then, a voice rang out .
Shi Mu was stunned . This was the first time Yan Luo had declined him for anything .
Then, a hint of a crafty and smiling expression flashed through his eyes . He took two steps forward to get closer to Yan Luo . He eventually arrived within Yan Luo’s reach . Then, his right hand moved towards the green flower on Yan Luo’s head .
The sky-blue soul-flames in Yan Luo’s eyes brightened-up . Then, its stature flashed, and it disappeared from its place .
It appeared in the middle of the hall the next moment .




Shi Mu thought of something . Then, his stature also moved . He chased after Yan Luo while mumbling something .
Yan Luo remained motionless . Its mouth opened slightly; it seemed to be making fun of Shi Mu for over-estimating his own capability .
But, Shi Mu arrived in front of Yan Luo in a flash . Then, his right hand again extended towards the green flower on Yan Luo’s head .

Yan Luo’s stature turned fuzzy once again, and it disappeared from its place . Shi Mu shot a white air mass from his right hand at the same time . It transformed into a chain of white Qi . It grasped Yan Luo, and fastened it firmly .
"Ha ha!"
Shi Mu burst into a fit of laughter . Then, his hand moved towards Yan Luo’s head to pluck the green flower off its head .
The soul-flames in Yan Luo’s eyes flared-up . A layer of white radiance floated on the surface of its body, and began to expand outwards .
‘Bang!’ A muffled thumping sound was heard .
The chain of white Qi was shattered into pieces . Yan Luo’s stature flashed at the same time, and appeared a few feet away from its original place .
However, the flower dropped from its head… probably due to its intense movements . It dispersed halfway, and transformed into a small green light . Then, the cold and gloomy aura pervading in the room almost dissipated .
Shi Mu was awestruck . He remained glued to the spot . His right hand still maintained the gesture of plucking out the flower . A green petal of the flower could be seen in his hand; a green radiance was flowing on its surface . Then, the petal in his hand dispersed in a similar manner .
Then, something unbelievable happened .
A cold and gloomy aura seeped into Shi Mu’s hand . It circulated within his body while streaming through his meridians . It eventually converged into his lower abdomen .
Suddenly, Shi Mu’s body started to shiver fiercely . But, he was pleasantly surprised to find that the magic power in his lower abdomen had increased to a great extent . He felt as if he had reached the peak of the sixth layer of the Art of Accumulating Spirit Power .
The soul-flames in Yan Luo’s eyes flickered violently . It stomped its foot . Then, its body and the black Qi disappeared .
Shi Mu scratched his head as he saw this . He felt a little apologetic in his heart . But, his heart was set on fire as he thought of the wondrous effect of that strange green petal .
Suddenly, a golden gleam appeared in his eyes . Then, a moving scene emerged in his mind .
It was the image of a green mountain . A number of high waterfalls were suspended from everywhere on the peak – like bolts of white silk .
The scene started from a waterfall . There was a twenty-feet-wide winding road in front of it; it meandered all the way to the hill-top .




It was the image of the fifth mountain peak . A disciple of the Black Demon Sect was walking along the mountain-road; he was dressed in the black uniform of the Sect . He was walking towards the peak with quick footsteps .
Shi Mu’s brows twitched . The parrot Cai was transmitting this moving scene in Shi Mu’s mind . It had used its power to share its vision with Shi Mu .
Shi Mu generally activated this vision whenever he felt the need . However, Cai could also take the initiative to trigger this .
"Shi Tou, someone is coming . It seems like he’s looking for you," the parrot’s voice resounded in Shi Mu’s mind .
Suddenly, the scene in Shi Mu’s mind moved . It then started to show the mountain-road .
The image of the disciple grew clearer in this scene . His facial features as well as his facial expression could be seen vividly now . He occasionally looked towards the cave-dwelling on the hill-top while rapidly climbing-up the mountain .
Shi Mu’s expression changed . This person had already left an impression on Shi Mu’s mind . Shi Mu had seen this person standing beside the Black Demon Sect’s Head .
Why would he show-up here? Can it be that the Head has summoned me again?
"Shi Tou, what does this man want from you? No, don’t say it first . Let this wise noble fellow make a guess . That’s right, you can also give me some green fruits if I make the right guess . I want to eat fresh food . . . " the parrot's voice resounded in his mind without stopping .
Shi Mu raised his hand, and shook his head helplessly . He then thought of something, and cut-off the connection with the parrot's mind . The scene faded away from his mind at the same time .
The visual-sharing ability of this parrot was extremely helpful . But, its boisterous personality was too much for him to endure .
In fact, Shi Mu was a little fearful of Cai’s clamorous personality since he had let it wander freely outside the cave-dwelling .
But, Shi Mu wasn’t too much worried about this parrot’s security .
The parrot was excessively boisterous . But, it possessed minimal courage . It only dared to stroll in the vicinity of the fifth peak even though it had been set free by Shi Mu to wander anywhere . It never dared to fly a little further from this point .
A knock on the door outside the cave-dwelling was heard after a short while .
Shi Mu walked to the door, and opened it .
"Big Brother Shi Mu, I’m here to convey the order of the Sect’s Head . He wants you to leave for the Sect’s main hall . He has an important matter that he wants to discuss with you . " The black-robed youth looked at Shi Mu, and bowed to greet him . Then, he said respectfully .
"Oh, may I request the young fellow to enlighten me a little about the reason behind this sudden summon?" Shi Mu asked .
"This . . . I don’t know that," the black-robed youth replied honestly .
"Well, I understand . I’ll immediately set out after I’ve wrapped-up a few things here . " Shi Mu remained silent for a moment . Then, he waved his hand and said .
The black-robed youth complied, and departed from there .
Shi Mu kept standing at the door for a while . He pondered over the reason why the Head of the Black Demon Sect had summoned him . Then, he left the cave-dwelling, and began to walk down the mountain .
"Shi Tou, where are you heading to?" The parrot Cai flew over to him as soon as he stepped out of the cave . Then, it landed on Shi Mu’s shoulder .
"I’m on my way to the main hall of the Black Demon Sect . The Sect’s Head has summoned me to discuss an important matter . You don’t have to tag along with me . " Shi Mu raised his shoulder, and shrugged Cai off from it .
Cai had been the Spirit pet of Young Master Ju for a long time . So, a lot of people in the Black Demon Sect must be familiar with it . Moreover, it would be inappropriate to let Cai’s special ability unfurl in front of the other people . Shi Mu didn’t want many people to know about the existence of this parrot .
Cai also seemed to have understood this point . Therefore, it didn’t insist . It fluttered towards other parts of the mountain-peak .
*** ***
Shi Mu arrived at the main gate of main hall after-half-an-hour . It was located on the first mountain-peak .
"Big Brother, Elders and the Sect’s Head are waiting for you inside . " One of the disciples of the Black Demon Sect was guarding the main gate . He expressed a gracious greeting to Shi Mu . After that, he said respectfully .
Shi Mu was taken aback . He hadn’t expected to see the Sect’s elders there . It seemed like an extremely crucial situation .
Shi Mu’s eyes flickered as he walked inside the hall .
A lot of people could be seen standing in the hall . A middle-aged man in a black robe was seated on the seat of honor . His skin looked smooth, and black hair was trailing over his shoulder; he seemed to be in his early forties .
The middle-aged man sat quietly on the main seat . But, his body was giving off an overwhelming force; so much so that every person had thrown a glance at him as soon as they had entered the hall .
Shi Mu gazed toward the middle-aged man . The middle-aged man heard his footsteps, and turned his vision towards him .
Shi Mu’s body trembled as soon as their eyes met . He felt a cold shiver run down his spine .
Suddenly, a fit of terror gripped his heart . He felt an ambience of unfathomable depths issued by the middle-aged man’s body . He was undoubtedly an Earth Grade Existence and the Great Elder of the Sect .
One of the Elders of the Black Demon Sect stood next to the middle-aged man; it was none other than Jin Xiao Chai .
Three more people stood in the main hall . Shi Mu was already familiar with them . They were the first-grade disciples – Qian Xiong- the second rank holder, Bai Shui Xiu- the third rank holder and Mo Ning- whom Shi Mu had defeated .
