Chapter 473: Spider-mantis

Night fell. Shi Mu stood in the middle of the verdant woods, his eyes boring through the sylvan surrounding and into the farthermost distance.

It took him two days of restless journey to finally reach Mang Gu Jungle. Here, every single tree was a giant, growing up to at least a few hundred yards tall while their trunks were a few yards wide; Their lush, green leaves were inscribed with esoteric glyphs that somehow conjure a feeling of uneasiness.

He examined his surroundings for a good few minutes before he averted his gaze, looking at one of the gigantic trees at the very edge of the jungle before leaping into one of its high branches.

The battles and journeys he had gone through for these past few days had been taxing, and now Shi Mu was steadily progressing into the kernel of the entire secret territory. He planned to take one last time to rest enough for what lies ahead.
