"It seems those pesky bugs found me through this!"
Shen Mu pulled a wisp of faint black aura from his body.
"These demon lords, who have existed for countless years, are truly impossible to guard against!"
Back then, Shen Mu had no substantial contact with Mephisto at all, so he had no idea when he had been marked by him.
Just as Shen Mu was thinking this, a sudden violent noise came from all directions.
It turned out that Magneto, who had previously been ambushed and controlled by Apocalypse, had put his helmet back on.
After he and Mystique moved Charles away, he directly pulled the entire underground space where the Cerebro was located out of the ground.
"Apocalypse, get out here!"
Magneto angrily roared, tearing off layer after layer of the underground space's exterior.
The next moment, his angry expression froze slightly, because the figure that emerged from within was someone he did not want to face again.
"Oh! Not bad! You already have the courage to challenge your ancestor, commendable!"
Shen Mu said, looking at Magneto, who was flying in the air with a look of surprise.
"Where is Apocalypse?"
Although the shadow left by Shen Mu still lingered in his heart, Magneto still asked, steeling himself.
"Apocalypse has left.
From now on, he is My servant.
Your grievances can end here!"
Hearing Shen Mu's words, Magneto's expression changed.
He had not expected that fellow, who claimed to be a God of the Old World, would also submit to someone else.
Slowly descending from the air, the chaotic magnetic fields around him began to calm down.
"I'm a little disappointed.
I thought you wouldn't be able to resist attacking Me again!"
When Shen Mu said this, Magneto's heart trembled, and he couldn't help but inwardly lament that he was fortunate to have held back!
Otherwise, he might have been in danger again!
"So, I am leaving now.
Do you want to try to stop Me?"
Seeing the relieved expression on Magneto's face, Shen Mu couldn't help but speak again.
"…"
Magneto said nothing, silently moving his body to ensure Shen Mu didn't think he was blocking his path.
"Boring, truly boring!"
Shen Mu felt a bit bored seeing him like this.
He had originally wanted to see if Magneto had made any progress in the past half month.
Feeling the putrid-smelling auras moving towards him, Shen Mu casually found a spot, lay down, and waited for them to arrive while basking in the Sun.
The demons arrived very quickly.
The first to arrive was the Wind Demon, whose body had transformed into a wind element and flew over.
"Ding! Major event 'The Gaze of the Demon' has begun.
Treasure chest is continuously charging."
At this moment, the system's voice once again echoed in Shen Mu's mind, notifying him of the start of a new major event.
After confirming that the person lying in front of him was the target he was looking for, the Wind Demon grinned sinisterly and transformed into a giant tornado, engulfing Shen Mu.
"Hahaha! It seems this will be My chance to earn merit!"
"As long as I eliminate this guy first, I will definitely receive a reward from My Lord Blackheart."
Thinking of this, the Wind Demon became even more rampant.
He was very experienced in dealing with such mortal lives.
As long as he sucked all the air out of their surroundings, they would suffocate to Death in agony.
"Look, everyone, a tornado!"
"What's going on?
The weather station didn't predict a tornado in New York!"
"Run, if you get caught, you're finished!"
The sudden appearance of the tornado caused panic among the surrounding residents once again.
Generally speaking, if any weather anomaly is detected, the meteorological department would issue a warning in advance, but now this tornado had already formed without any prior warning.
Watching the people scattering and fleeing, the Wind Demon became even more smug, and his arrogant laughter echoed through the wind.
However, the next second, his laughter abruptly stopped, because he saw the man in the center of the whirlwind he had created sit up and stretch.
Out of instinct, the Wind Demon instantly had a bad premonition, but his demonic nature made him launch an even fiercer attack.
Because as a demon, he had no reason to fear a mortal.
He regarded Shen Mu as a mortal because the gap between him and Shen Mu was too great.
Therefore, apart from Shen Mu's somewhat unusual appearance, he could not see anything special about Shen Mu.
Countless debris from the surroundings began to be sucked into the powerful whirlwind he had created.
"Damn mortal, die!"
The Wind Demon seemed to have already envisioned Shen Mu being torn into pieces.
However, what he didn't know was that such a move had already been used against Shen Mu before, and its power was stronger than what he was creating now, but it had no effect whatsoever.
Shen Mu, in the whirlwind, simply exhaled softly.
From in front of him, the giant whirlwind began to freeze.
A huge sense of crisis gripped the Wind Demon's heart.
At this moment, he had a premonition of Death.
Seeing that the situation was not good, he wanted to escape, but the freezing speed was too fast.
In the blink of an eye, he had already turned into a giant ice tornado.
As a Cosmic God, Shen Mu's frozen breath was not just a physical attack; it also contained divine power.
So at this moment, the Wind Demon, along with his consciousness, was completely frozen!
Shen Mu lightly flicked the ice tornado with his finger, and instantly, cracks began to spread from it.
"Crash!"
The giant ice tornado transformed into a pile of shattered ice shards on the ground.
The Wind Demon had originally wanted to claim the first credit, but he died before he could even succeed.
"Killing a small demon has advanced the progress by less than one percent.
It seems the big fish of this event are still to come."
Shen Mu said thoughtfully after looking at the treasure chest charging progress displayed on the system panel.
"Strange, the Wind Demon has disappeared!"
Blackheart, who was rushing over impatiently, suddenly paused, saying with some surprise.
Although he still didn't know who Shen Mu was, the one chosen by his father to be the vessel of his descent, his usual arrogance meant he didn't take him seriously at all.
In his opinion, no matter how strong the opponent was, he couldn't be stronger than him, the son of a demon lord at full power.
"My Lord Blackheart, is something wrong?"
Seeing his boss stop, the Earth Demon poked his head out of the ground and asked.
The other two demons also stopped and looked at Blackheart.
"The Wind Demon has been expelled.
Perhaps a powerful mage intervened!"
Blackheart did not tell them the truth that the Wind Demon had perished, only saying that he had been expelled back to hell.
"Mages! Those guys are courting Death, daring to disrupt My Lord Blackheart's plan.
I will make them die in the most painful way and then devour their souls."
Shui Mo (Water Demon) also said sinisterly.
"Let's go! That guy is up ahead.
After destroying him, each of you can go out and hunt the souls of those mortals at will."
Blackheart made a promise to the remaining three demons.
