This was a gigantic basin, with the skies of the basin curling up with dense spiritual mist, causing one to seemingly be unable to see the horizon. At this moment, extremely erratic Spiritual Energy fluctuations continuously swept out from the centre of the basin, causing the spiritual mist to be unable to approach it.
Bang!
Bang!
Within the basin, Spiritual Energy gushed out as Sword Aura howled out. Under the confrontation, the earth started to crumble apart, while gigantic fissures continued to extend out.
Looking towards the origin of the collision, one could see two figures crisscrossing at lightning speed. Every time they collided, it would cause an astonishing roar to ring out.
Taking a closer look, one of the figures was slim and graceful, with a black dress wrapping around her slender and exquisite figure. A black-coloured longsword, bringing along abnormally sharp Sword Aura, swept out.
This familiar beautiful figure was, naturally, Luo Li.
However, at this moment, her opponent wasn't the Wu Jia from before, but the skinny and weak male that looked like a bag of bones. This person was the 3rd rank on the Bounty Board, Mu Gu.
The surface of Mu Gu's body was suffused with a lustrous white brilliance, as though it was radiating from his bones. Although his skinny and shriveled body seemed to contain extremely tyrannical power.
Wielding a bone blade in his hand, he started to fight against Luo Li. Both of them were erupting with rather astonishing attacks, causing the skies to appear as though they were being torn apart by them.
On the mountain peak behind Mu Gu, there were a few figures standing tall and straight. Looking at the fight before them, shock and astonishment appeared within their eyes. Clearly, they never expected that Mu Gu would actually be obstructed by such a beautiful young girl.
"Haha. I never imagined that Hokuang Reiwon would have such an outstanding student. Being able to possess such strength at such a young age truly isn't simple." A male wielding a long spear smiled as he looked at the fight before him in astonishment.
"Tenglong, I'm afraid that you won't be able to deal with that girl," replied Wu Jia with a faint smile. Earlier, he had crossed hands with Luo Li.
The latter was indeed extremely formidable. The numerous Spiritual Arrays that he had set up were all destroyed by the latter's sword.
Although his words weren't pleasant to hear, the male by the name of Teng Long shrugged his shoulders indifferently. Although Wu Jia was only ranked 5th on the Bounty List, he was, after all, a Rank 5 Spiritual Array Master. If one were to truly compare the degree of difficulty in dealing with him, he was even more formidable than Mu Gu and Gui Xiong, the two vicious Heavenly Completion Stage Middle Phase experts.
"I heard that Mao Jiang and Chi Yu were defeated?"
Wu Jia nodded.
"He was defeated by a student called Mu Chen, and he should be on his way to save Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong."
"What's the point of saving him?
The two of them had been poisoned by the Mystic Dragon Poison and were now rescued.
Instead, he is a burden. "Another bare-chested man, whose body was covered with tiger head tattoos, curled his mouth and said.
This person was Wang Hu, who was ranked ninth on the bounty list.
"Mo Longzi isn't here yet?
Looks like dealing with the Lin Zheng trio has exhausted quite a bit of his time. "Teng Long looked at his surroundings and said.
"The Three Great Generals of the Punishment Hall aren't ordinary characters. Even if Mo Longzi wanted to take them down one by one, he wouldn't be able to do so.
It will also consume time. "
Wu Jia smiled faintly and said, "However, it doesn't matter. No matter how they resist, the result will be the same. Right now, we just need to keep an eye on those people from Hokuang Reiwon. Once Mo Longzi arrives, prepare to have all of them stay behind."
While he was speaking.
His cold and venomous snake-like gaze looked towards the mountain peak in the distance.
There were also a few figures standing there. They were He Yao, Su Xuan and the rest.
However, at this moment, their expressions were filled with seriousness. That was because they could also sense it.
In the distance, Wu Jia and the others were currently staring at them and the other party's troops.
They had already exchanged blows with each other, and all of them were ruthless characters. If Lin Zheng and the other two were present, they would not be afraid. However, now that they had gathered together, Lin Zheng and the other two had yet to appear. This caused them to feel somewhat uneasy.
In fact, their opponents had already planned to capture them. However, due to the arrival of Luo Li, who had obstructed the extremely powerful Mu Gu, they slightly restrained themselves. However, they knew that this wouldn't last for long. After all, they couldn't rely on Luo Li alone to obstruct that group of ruthless people.
"Exactly where did that fellow Mu Chen go?" Xu Huang couldn't help asking.
In the current situation, they urgently needed a person with strength comparable to a Heavenly Completion Stage middle stage to intimidate their opponents. In their group, other than Lin Zheng and the other two, only Mu Chen and Luo Li were capable of doing so.
However, Luo Li was currently being obstructed, yet Mu Chen had yet to appear.
Su Xuan and the rest helplessly shook their heads. Upon entering the Western Desolate Territory, they had been separated. Therefore, they had no idea what exactly Mu Chen had gone to do.
"Something might have happened to Senior Lin Zheng and the rest."
A Punishment Hall expert's face turned slightly dark. Clenching his teeth, he said, "That Mo Longzi has yet to appear. I suspect that he's gone to deal with Senior Lin Zheng and the rest."
Hearing that, Su Xuan and the rest turned silent. Naturally, they had also thought of this point. However, as of now, their situation was already extremely bad. The only thing they could do was to hope that Lin Zheng and the rest were able to deal with Mo Longzi. If that was the case, they would be able to completely turn the situation around.
As of now, they were clearly waiting.
Bang!
While both parties were waiting in the dark, the confrontation in the sky grew increasingly intense. Boundless Sword Aura howled out, akin to rivers of Sword Aura, causing Mu Gu to be forced back.
As the Sword Aura swept across Mu Gu's body, it brought about streaks of blood. However, Mu Gu didn't seem to care about them in the slightest. As his skin was sliced apart, dense white bones could be seen, sparkling with a lustre, appearing as hard as metal.
This Mu Gu had obviously cultivated in some kind of body tempering Deity Tier Spiritual Art, causing him to be exceedingly strong. Therefore, he was able to withstand the sweep of Luo Li's Sword Aura.
"What a troublesome girl." Mu Gu looked at the blood covering his entire body, before laughing out loud. His dry laughter sounded extremely ear-piercing.
"However, why do you need to bitterly persist? I know that you're waiting for the three Great Generals of the Punishment Hall. However, they'll definitely be dealt with by Mo Longzi. When Mo Longzi arrives, your fates will already be determined."
Faced against his noisy chatter, Luo Li didn't give the slightest bit of attention. On the contrary, his attacks grew increasingly vicious, as boundless Sword Auras hid the skies and covered the earth as they swept towards Mu Gu.
Whoosh!
Just as Luo Li was increasing the intensity of his attacks, whooshing sounds seemed to ring out from the distance.
Everyone's hearts jumped as they immediately turned their gazes towards that direction.
Over there, layers of dense spiritual mist were torn apart, before a figure shot out. Appearing akin to a demonic god, he appeared in the air above the basin.
That figure was dressed in black robes, with a black sword on his back. His expression was one of indifference, while a malevolent black dragon tattoo surfaced on his forehead, causing his entire being to radiate with a baleful aura.
It's Mo Longzi!
When Su Xuan and the rest saw the demonic god-like figure, their entire bodies turned ice-cold.
Their entire bodies turned ice-cold. Especially when they saw what was behind Mo Longzi, their faces instantly turned deathly pale.
In the air behind Mo Longzi.
Three figures floated in the air, their bodies covered in blood. Their auras were dispirited, as though they had sunk into a coma due to heavy injuries.
"It's Senior Brother Lin Zheng and the rest!"
Su Xuan and the rest felt their bodies turn ice-cold as they uncontrollably shivered. Overwhelmed with shock, they looked towards the three people floating behind Mo Longzi.
Mo Longzi was actually frightening to such a degree?
Even Lin Zheng and the other two weren't able to defeat him?!
"Haha.
You've finally dealt with them? "
On the mountain peak, Gui Xiong looked towards the three figures behind Mo Longzi. The corner of his eyes twitched, before he gave a hearty laugh.
Mo Longzi indifferently nodded his head. With a casual wave of his hand, he threw the heavily injured and unconscious Lin Zheng and the other two towards the mountain peak.
With an indifferent tone, he said, "As expected of the Punishment Hall's Three Great Generals. Even though I've defeated them one by one, it still took quite a bit of effort."
Turning his gaze towards the fight between Luo Li and Mu Gu in the air, he faintly narrowed his eyes.
Faintly narrowing his eyes, a sliver of astonishment flashed within them as he said, "I never imagined that other than Shen Cangsheng, Li Xuantong and the three Great Generals of the Punishment Hall, the Northern Heavens Spiritual Academy would produce another outstanding student."
"There's also a brat that has some ability.
Not only did he break through my obstruction, he even blocked the senses of the Spiritual Arrays I've arranged within the spiritual mist.
He should've gone to rescue Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong, "said Wu Jia with a faint smile.
"He's gone to rescue them?"
Mo Longzi's eyebrows faintly twitched, before saying with an indifferent smile, "Shen Cangsheng and Li Xuantong are about to be crippled by my Demonic Dragon Poison. Saving them would instead be a burden. Let him go first, we'll just capture him later."
As he spoke, he shot a look at Su Xuan and the rest in the distance. After determining their strength, he retracted his gaze without a care. With the current situation, everything was basically under his control.
"Gui Xiong, go and help Mu Gu deal with her. Don't waste time," said Mo Longzi as he waved his hand.
"Haha. Bullying with numbers doesn't feel too good, does it?"
Said Gui Xiong with a face brimming with smiles. However, although he said that, he had already pulled out a giant axe. Stomping on the ground, his figure explosively shot out. An incomparably overbearing axe glint, akin to a mountain being split apart, furiously roared as it chopped towards Luo Li.
Bang!
Seeing this, the bone blade in Mu Gu's hand explosively stabbed out. A hundred metre long blade glint ferociously chopped towards Luo Li.
With two Heavenly Completion Stage Middle Phase experts taking action at the same time, their might immediately rose explosively.
A grave expression appeared on Luo Li's lovable face as she tightly gripped her longsword. A river of Sword Aura swept out, protecting her body.
Bang!
As both parties collided head-on, the sky instantly seemed to be torn apart. A shiver shook through Luo Li's lovable figure as she shot backwards, landing on a mountain peak. A smear of redness flashed across her lovable face, while the blood and aura within her body started to churn.
Seeing this, the faces of Su Xuan and the rest changed. Were their opponents planning to kill them?
However, how could they contend against their opponents?
After all, even the three Great Generals of the Punishment Hall had been captured by them!
A chilling intent gushed out from Luo Li's exquisite and lovable face, while an almost perfect arc appeared on her face. Tightly gripping her Luo God Sword, the longsword faintly trembled as ripples undulated on its surface. An obscure fluctuation rippled out, as though something frightening was about to break out from its seal.
However, just as the ripples on the surface of the sword grew increasingly rapid, sharp whooshing sounds rang out from the spiritual mist in the distance.
The sudden whooshing sounds caused everyone's expressions to change.
As the spiritual mist was torn apart, three glowing figures shot out like bolts of lightning. Landing on a mountain peak, boundless Spiritual Energy rushed towards the skies. At the same time, a sneer rang out.
"Indeed, the people on the Bounty Board are all shameless maggots. Don't they feel any shame for ganging up on a girl with so many people?"
Hearing that voice, pleasant surprise instantly gushed out from the faces of Su Xuan and the rest.
Mu Chen!
That fellow had finally rushed over!
