Urban Immortal Cultivation Supreme

It wasn't until the evening of the next day that A-xing groggily got up. He wasn't afraid of disturbing anyone; after all, with his skills, he could easily find an empty house to hide in for a nap and leave without making a sound, without anyone noticing. He didn't want to openly stay at a hotel, who knew whether Tang Mu had placed spies around here. In short, he needed to do everything possible to conceal his whereabouts.

Lazily jumping out the window, his figure faded into the darkness, completely disappearing.

Besides the necessary street lamps, this city retained a traditional style in all its buildings, and judging by the appearance, they seemed newly built. Even without much thought, one could tell it was Tang Mu's idea. For these old guys, modern buildings were just too ugly, the old-style houses were better.

The city could be newly built, but there weren't many people. Except for Tang Mu's own recruited men, there were basically no ordinary residents, which is why Tang Mu dared to leave the city without arranging for patrols. As night fell, the city suddenly quieted down, and even if someone came out for a stroll, it was people looking for a drink.

For these Superpower Users accustomed to modern life, living in this city was undoubtedly like living as a monk. Of course, some people would find places to open some shops or something. But compared to a bustling city, one or two scattered stores were not enough to enliven the city.

At this time, besides the bright lights, the city looked like a ghostly place. Even if A-xing didn't try to hide, no one would discover him now.

In the quiet environment, even A-xing's non-existent footsteps seemed to echo in his own ears. Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but be a little taken aback.

"What a waste. Managed such a large place, yet there's not a single soul to be seen." He cursed under his breath, but his hands didn't idle. He continually changed hand gestures, sending out a ring of subtle energy to probe the surroundings. Just like his way of hiding, the energy he released was extremely concealed, so even if someone stood nearby, they wouldn't sense any Energy Fluctuation.

The transparent ripples spread out, bit by bit feeding back the city's situation into A-xing's mind, forming a pattern. In just a short time, a map of the city was constructed in A-xing's mind. However, he couldn't find any trace of Qing He, not even Tang Mu, who he knew for sure was in the city.

"Indeed, there's some trick."

A-xing wasn't surprised at not finding any trace of Tang Mu. If Tang Mu couldn't even hide his own presence, he would have lived his years in vain. Yet he still didn't understand why Tang Mu got involved in this matter. Immortality? Even if that could be achieved, so what? They had lived long enough, almost excessively so; if they continued living, their minds might become completely twisted.

The Tang Mu in A-xing's memory was not someone who pursued immortality, unless he desired something else entirely. However, even though A-xing was very familiar with Tang Mu, he couldn't fathom what Tang Mu truly wanted. Often, Tang Mu was like the wind, elusive and impossible to predict, let alone easily guessed.

While probing the city's situation, A-xing speculated about Tang Mu's intentions. But after pondering for a long time, he couldn't make any sense of it. Not to mention that Tang Mu was a mystery even more elusive than Qi Yan, who explicitly pursued immortality. A-xing never came to understand his thinking either.

However, Qi Yan had clearly stated he would no longer meddle in such mixed-up matters. Although the credibility of this statement was low, A-xing chose to believe him. Thinking about it in a mixed-up way, A-xing still hadn't found any trace of Tang Mu, which was not a good sign. If he wanted to find Qing He, he had to first figure out where Tang Mu was.

For ordinary Superpower Users, Qing He was undoubtedly extremely dangerous. Even if Qing He had lost all his powers at this time, he wasn't someone an ordinary Superpower User could handle. Only with Tang Mu himself keeping an eye on Qing He would he feel at ease.

"Weird, where on earth is Tang Mu hiding?" A-xing felt a strange unease. If the first time he could not find Tang Mu was normal, then failing to find him after repeated probes was exceptionally odd.

While speculating, A-xing circled the city's perimeter, understanding some basic conditions. To learn more, he had to move into the city's interior. This ghostly place had no one to watch. If he could catch someone to interrogate, it might be a good choice. However, so far, he hadn't encountered a single person alone.

"Could that kid not be here?"

A-xing thought that maybe Tang Mu went out to capture someone again. Thinking about it, it was possible since the city had too few people, and with Tang Mu's scant numbers, it would indeed be troublesome to guard the city.

"Does the kid really plan to rule this planet?" A-xing looked up at the moon, its light blurred, and vaguely he seemed to see a silhouette flying by in mid-air. When he tried to see clearly again, there was nothing.

At that moment, an absurd feeling struck A-xing. He felt like a rat in a big box, every move being watched by someone outside, and he himself knowing nothing about it. This feeling was peculiar and came suddenly. However, once it appeared, it became impossible to erase.

A creepy feeling grew more pronounced as time passed. He suddenly stopped, looked around, and saw nothing amiss. The surrounding buildings were standardized. If someone suddenly found themselves in such a place, they would undoubtedly get lost. But A-xing didn't have this feeling, since he already had a model of the city.

"Strange." The doubt in A-xing's heart grew more apparent, similar to when he fell into that vast dark environment before.

Had the Five Elders trapped him again? If that were the case, it would indeed be troublesome. With the elders' methods, imprisoning him silently was not difficult. The more A-xing thought about it, the more possible it seemed because the environment here was too bizarre.

As the idea spread, A-xing considered another possibility. If the things before him were created by the Five Elders, then was the Tang Mu he saw still Tang Mu? This thought was dangerous and bold, directly denying the reality of the world he was in. Yet once this idea emerged, A-xing broke out in a cold sweat.

Could it really be like this?

At that time, talking with the Five Elders in the dark, A-xing couldn't determine their positions. Although they couldn't kill him, they were capable of imprisoning him. When those old guys let him go without any trickery, it seemed very much a plot by the Five Elders.

The purported release was just imprisonment in another place, meant to give A-xing a sense of returning to the real world. He suddenly understood why the Five Elders showed up to talk after keeping him shut for so long. Those people couldn't possibly have let him go.

The feeling of danger spread in his heart, which began to beat intensely.
