Mu Xi felt as if he faced a formidable enemy.
Hua Liu Ye's appearance made him realize the gravity of the situation.
"Zhenyue Wang, I have always cherished talented individuals. Young people like you, who possess great potential, are scarce within the Da Zhou dynasty. If you are willing to submit and join the Yinsha Sect, I can show mercy in today's matter," Hua Liu Ye spoke with a smile, his gray-haired figure not far away.
He continued, "Furthermore, I don't mind relinquishing my position as Vice Sect Master."
Mu Xi sneered, "Old man, you have quite an imagination!"
Clang!
He raised the golden spear in his hand, pointing it at Hua Liu Ye from a distance. "When Hong Shen Shang couldn't kill you back then, it doesn't mean that I, Mu Xi, can't sever your head!"
As his icy voice echoed, Mu Xi launched his attack fearlessly.
His figure resembled an illusory and dazzling rainbow, carrying an overwhelming killing intent as he charged towards Hua Liu Ye.
Hua Liu Ye couldn't help but shake his head slightly and sighed, "Zhenyue Wang, I have seized every advantage of timing and location. How could I possibly fight to the death with you?"
Quietly, a jet-black wooden sword, neither jade nor iron-like in appearance, appeared in his hand. He lightly thrust it into the void.
"Suppress!"
With just one word, it felt as if thunder suddenly erupted on level ground.
108 mysterious altars roared, giving rise to a myriad of obscure symbols that swiftly outlined a majestic divine mountain in the void, radiating immeasurable divine brilliance.
In front of this massive and towering divine mountain, Mu Xi's figure seemed as insignificant as a grain of sand in the ocean.
Boom!
The void became chaotic as the divine mountain pressed down.
Mu Xi's figure froze, hovering in mid-air. He was enveloped by a terrifying oppressive force, and every bone and muscle in his body emitted creaking sounds under the unbearable pressure.
His face changed dramatically.
"Rise!"
Gritting his teeth, Mu Xi frantically activated the crimson jade pendant in his left hand. His aura surged and soared like a raging river.
Above his head, a faintly discernible blood qilin took shape, treading on mountains and rivers, holding the sun and moon in its mouth, with eyes like a blood abyss, exuding boundless divine might.
Amidst the deafening roar, Mu Xi managed to withstand the suppression of the divine mountain through sheer force!
One person and one mountain reached a stalemate!
This scene caused even Hua Liu Ye to be moved. His gaze was firmly attracted by the crimson jade pendant in Mu Xi's left hand.
"Zhenyue Wang, is this the reliance that allows you to dominate the world? Indeed, it is an extraordinary treasure!" Hua Liu Ye exclaimed, a trace of fiery admiration appearing between his eyebrows.
As a Precelestial Martial Ancestor, how could he not recognize the extraordinary and mystical nature of the crimson jade pendant?
Soon after, Hua Liu Ye lowered his head and looked at the black wooden sword in his hand. His eyes revealed a hint of tenderness as he murmured, "Of course, you're not bad either..."
"Damn it!"
Mu Xi's face darkened. The pressure on him multiplied, filling him with worry and anxiety.
Even Mu Xi hadn't expected that Hua Liu Ye, this old cunning fellow, would be so treacherous. He didn't engage in direct confrontation but instead used the power of the forbidden formation in this place to suppress Mu Xi.
What made him even more disheartened was that even with the Blood Qilin Jade Pendant in his hand, he could only barely contend with it. He couldn't truly break through the power of the divine mountain formed by the forbidden formation.
"It's all because I sought to achieve the perfect state of the Grandmaster realm. As a result, with my current cultivation, I am unable to fully unleash the true power of the Blood Qilin Jade Pendant. Otherwise, how could I be suppressed to such an extent..."
"What should I do?" Mu Xi felt anxious in his heart.
At this moment, the Necromancer controlling the "Nine Palaces Locking Yin Formation" was still operating, and the eerie whispers spread like tides.
Pu Yi, Shen Jiu Song, Jiang Tan Yun, and Lu Chang Feng were all in unbearable pain, their bodies soaked in cold sweat, and their qi on the verge of chaos.
At this moment, they were no different from losing their combat effectiveness.
Ning Xi Hua seemed to be in a relatively better condition, but her slightly pained expression indicated that her spiritual soul had clearly suffered an impact.
"Hmm?"
When Mu Xi noticed Su Yi's situation from a distance, he couldn't help but be stunned.
He saw Su Yi standing leisurely with his hands behind his back, his gaze full of interest as he surveyed the 108 altars. He seemed completely unaffected, calm and unruffled by any influence.
What is this guy doing?
Mu Xi was a bit confused, and a strange sense of frustration suddenly arose within him.
What's he doing, at a time like this, without any reaction at all?
No.
He only has Qi Gathering stage cultivation. I shouldn't have placed my hopes on him...
But still, his indifferent and detached manner really infuriated Mu Xi!
As if sensing Mu Xi's gaze, Su Yi slightly raised his head and asked, "Can you still hold on?"
"Of course!" Mu Xi replied without hesitation.
Su Yi nodded and shifted his gaze, looking again at a nearby altar.
It was as if that altar held an extremely extraordinary secret, attracting his attention.
Meanwhile, Mu Xi was infuriated by Su Yi's nonchalant appearance, almost causing him to burst a blood vessel in his forehead.
He had thought that although Su Yi was young, since he could walk side by side with Ning Xi Hua and Shen Jiu Song and gain their respect, he should be a hidden character.
Who would have thought that when faced with such a terrifying danger, this guy would show absolutely no reaction!
"Huh?"
At this moment, Hua Liu Ye also noticed this scene and heard the conversation between Su Yi and Mu Xi.
Seeing that Su Yi was unaffected by the power of the "Nine Palaces Locking Yin Formation," Hua Liu Ye couldn't help but be surprised.
"You two, go and bring that little guy over here. I suspect he has a treasure on him that can help him withstand the impact of the forbidden formation," Hua Liu Ye's gaze turned towards the black-robed woman and Tu Hong as he casually gave the command.
Seeing this, Mu Xi inexplicably felt relieved. This guy is finally going to face retribution!
But when he saw the black-robed woman and Tu Hong rushing towards Su Yi, Mu Xi couldn't help but feel worried again.
He couldn't help but shout, "Su Yi, why are you still standing there? Run away!"
Only then did Su Yi reluctantly retract his gaze from the altars and look up at Mu Xi with a faint smile. He said, "Hold on, I'll come to save you."
His words were casual.
Mu Xi was dumbfounded. This guy can't even save himself, yet he's threatening to save me?!
"Little guy, come along obediently with Big Brother Tu!" In the thunderous laughter, the red-haired giant Tu Hong charged forward, his mountain-like figure exuding a menacing aura.
As a peak figure at the Grandmaster Fourth Layer, even though he had been injured in his confrontation with Mu Xi earlier, his terrifying power was still formidable.
However, seemingly afraid of hurting Su Yi, he specifically freed up his right hand and made a grab towards Su Yi like an eagle swooping down on a rabbit.
Su Yi's gaze remained calm as he watched Tu Hong approach, a hint of coldness appearing at the corner of his lips.
Until Tu Hong's fan-like hand reached him, Su Yi casually extended his right hand, gripping, swinging, and smashing.
Then, Tu Hong's right hand was suddenly grasped, and in the next moment, his colossal figure was swung into the air.
With Su Yi exerting force from his wrist, Tu Hong's figure was ruthlessly slammed onto the ground like a wooden stake.
Bang!
The earth trembled, debris flew, and a human-shaped large pit was formed on the ground.
Looking at Tu Hong again, his head was shattered, blood streaming down his face, his cheeks sunken, covered in dirt, and his bones seemed to have been shattered countless times.
He was paralyzed like mud, his entire body collapsing and convulsing, spitting out blood from his mouth as if he had gone insane.
Mu Xi: "?"
Hua Liu Ye: "?"
The Necromancer: "?"
The black-robed woman: "?"
A bizarre and silent atmosphere descended, everyone shocked by this scene.
"Although I'm only seventeen this year, I hate it when people call me a little guy, you know?" Su Yi said seriously, then lightly kicked his toe.
Bang!
Tu Hong's head exploded like a watermelon, splattering red and white juice.
"Seeking death!" The black-robed woman let out a piercing scream from her lips and made a slashing gesture with her fingers.
Boom!
Countless blood-colored wind blades surged out, raging and fierce.
Su Yi waved his sleeve.
The wind blades that filled the sky instantly shattered into dust.
The black-robed woman's pupils suddenly contracted. Before she could react, Su Yi's figure had abruptly appeared in front of her.
"You said that I, Su, was seeking death, but now you're no longer in this world either. Naturally, you're no exception," he said casually and indifferently. He raised his right hand, lightly tapping the smooth forehead of the black-robed woman with his index finger.
Tapping the forehead is generally an affectionate gesture.
Men to women, elders to children, they often like to tap the forehead to show affection or reproach.
But when Su Yi tapped her forehead, the Grandmaster Fourth Layer existence of the black-robed woman felt her head explode, her spirit instantly shattered, and in an instant, her consciousness was gone.
Then, her delicate figure silently collapsed to the ground.
Mu Xi took in a sharp breath, stunned. This guy...
The Necromancer, who was currently using the "Nine Palaces Locking Spirit Formation," stiffened all over, his heart filled with a chilling sensation as his face changed drastically.
"You bastard!" Hua Liu Ye trembled with anger, his eyes flickering with a cold and terrifying look as he gazed at Su Yi.
His sleeves fluttered as he raised the ink-black wooden sword in his hand and thrust it towards Su Yi through the air.
Boom!
The 108 altars rumbled once again, and a tidal wave of talismanic clouds condensed in the void, forming a majestic divine mountain that appeared out of thin air above Su Yi's head, pressing down with immense power.
The radiance was dazzling, and the suppressive might emanating from the divine mountain caused the void to burst, producing a rumbling sound.
Mu Xi's heart tightened as he said, "Quick, dodge!"
He had been resisting this forbidden formation-turned divine mountain all this time, thanks to the power of the Qilin Blood Jade Pendant, which had enabled him to hold on until now.
Otherwise, he would have long been a goner.
Now seeing Hua Liu Ye resorting to the same method to deal with Su Yi, how could he not be nervous?
Su Yi smiled and didn't say anything.
He watched as the brilliant divine mountain pressed down, and then he flicked his finger.
Swoosh!
A sword-like force shot out from his fingertip and struck a nearby ancient altar. The surface of the altar was adorned with intricate and complex talismanic cloud patterns, resembling a pile of overlapping whirlpools.
And Su Yi's finger force happened to hit the center of the overlapping whirlpools.
Boom!
Instantly, the towering divine mountain that was pressing down shattered, resembling a massive fireworks display bursting open above Su Yi's head, filled with colorful splendor.
Mu Xi, who was already nervous and worried, was caught off guard by this scene, and his jaw almost dropped.
Hua Liu Ye also couldn't help but pause for a moment, his mind going blank: "???"
