Chapter 1317 Palace Complex at the Center of the Ancient City
Seeing the golem that landed right in front of her, Mui froze on the spot together with the demon beasts not too far away from where she was standing. Everyone present was taken aback by the golem that had landed in front of Mui. Especially considering that the golem that had landed in front of Mui showed no sign of moving and upon closer inspection had clearly broken apart on impact with the ground.
Roar...
Feeling a bit uneasy with the appearance of the golem, one of the demon beasts that had frozen as it was about to leave, let out a low roar to remind everyone that this was no time for them to dawdle around wasting their time.
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
Whoosh-!
And so, along with the reminder from the demon beast, Mui and the rest of the demon beasts who had momentarily frozen on the spot following the appearance of one of the golems, all came back to their senses before they all began moving deeper into the ancient city ruins.
However, maybe because everyone had the same goal in mind or at least wanted to escape in the same direction, Mui found herself grouping up with the dozen or so demon beasts as they moved deeper into the ancient city together.
Of course, this also included the fluffy wolf demon beast that had similarly been planning to move deeper into the ancient city.
Although... There was one major difference between the fluffy wolf demon beast when compared to the rest of the demon beast and that was the fact that the fluffy wolf demon beast was the only demon beast below the Seventh Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.
Compared to the fluffy wolf demon beast, the rest of the still alive demon beasts were clearly among the strongest that had entered the ancient city back then, while at the same time also looking far smarter compared to the rest of the demon beasts she had encountered so far. Even being close to reaching a level of intelligence no less than that of a human cultivator.
In this sense, the fluffy wolf demon beast clearly stood out, as it should have long since died under normal circumstances. Especially so considering that it was clearly not the brightest one around and just seemed to be running in the opposite direction of where it perceived danger to present.

At least that was what Mui managed to understand about it from the little interaction she enjoyed with it so far. Different from the other demon beasts who clearly seemed to have a goal in mind as they moved deeper into the ancient city.
Rumble~!
However, unexpectedly, nothing happened for the next few minutes, as she kept her full attention on the fog for any signs of movements that might indicate that the fluffy wolf demon beast had been discovered.
"Wha... How is this possible!?"
In the end, Mui was left speechless as she soon saw the fluffy wolf demon beast emerge unharmed on the other side of the dense fog, as it soon began moving deeper into the palace complex without any signs of having been injured, let alone attacked inside the dense fog.
Roar!
Witnessing this scene as well, one of the stronger demon beasts at the Eighth Stage of the Nascent Soul Realm let out a low roar before it decided to follow in the steps of the fluffy wolf demon beast and try to make its way through the dense part of the fog that the fluffy wolf demon beast had managed to safely pass through without any problems.
Clearly thinking that there might be something wrong with the area that the fluffy wolf demon beast had managed to pass through without any problems.
Rooar!?
Crack-!
Unfortunately, the panicked and terrified roar that soon echoed out from inside the fog. Followed by the sound of something being cracked in half, proved that the dense fog covered area wasn't safe at all. Making both Mui and the remaining demon beasts wonder how the fluffy wolf demon beast had managed to safely pass through the place.
Was it luck? Or was it something different? Perhaps the fluffy wolf demon beast had even managed to find a way to make the ancient golems ignore it...!
No matter what it was, Mui and the rest of the demon beasts all understood that they wouldn't be able to repeat what the fluffy wolf demon beast had done.
If they wanted to pass through the fog-covered barrier separating the palace complex from the rest of the ancient city, they would have to do it by sneaking their way past the ancient golems guarding the place, a task that would be difficult to accomplish. Even if they didn't go anywhere near the areas where the fog was dense and only kept to the areas where the fog was thin and easy to see through.
Rustle~
As the demon beasts around her all began to move forward one by one, Mui didn't sit around on her own, as she followed them and chose a moderately safe location to start making her way through the fog...
