Within the Western Desolated City, countless gazes were watching the confrontation in the sky. Although Mu Chen and the other two had occupied the advantage in numbers, anyone could see that the true upper hand was still held by Mo Longzi.
At this moment, the latter's strength had clearly grown increasingly tyrannical after displaying some kind of secret technique. Even if the Mu Chen trio joined hands, it was likely that they would not be able to stop him.
Su Xuan, He Yao and the rest had similarly thought of this point. Therefore, their expressions remained grave and solemn. The joy and joy they felt from defeating their opponents due to Luo Li and Li Xuantong had dissipated by quite a bit.
Wanting to break out of such a situation was truly too difficult.
In the sky, under the gazes of tens of thousands of people, Mu Chen tightly frowned as he looked at Mo Longzi, whose body was brimming with baleful aura, while feeling extremely troubled.
"That fellow's strength has increased again."
Li Xuantong's brows were also tightly knitted together, while his expression was somewhat ugly. He was naturally able to feel that the current Mo Longzi had become even stronger than before.
"Can he still fight?" Li Xuantong asked as he looked at Mu Chen's injuries.
With a smile, Mu Chen nodded his head. Clenching his fists, his black pupils faintly sparkled, as if he was thinking about something.
"Why don't you leave him to me?" By his side, Luo Li spoke out in a soft voice.
Mu Chen and Li Xuantong were startled. In the next instant, a faint frown appeared on Mu Chen's forehead, while a chilling glint seemed to surface within his black pupils. Fiercely clenching his fists, he faintly shook his head and said, "Let me do it."
"Can you do it?"
Li Xuantong asked in a slightly doubtful tone. He was clear about Luo Li's identity and background. Therefore, he did not find it strange that she dared to say that she could deal with Mo Longzi. However, there was, after all, some disparity between Mu Chen and Luo Li. In Li Xuantong's eyes, the fact that Mu Chen was able to force Mo Longzi to such a stage.
This was already a rather extraordinary feat.
If he took another step forward, perhaps Mu Chen would also have to pay an extremely heavy price.
Luo Li looked at Mu Chen with her big, clear eyes. As she looked at the wounds all over his body, her heart ached for him, and a little resentment rose in her. Although she knew that Mu Chen really wanted to stand in front of her to protect her, did he really like her to watch him fight until he was covered in cuts and bruises?
Didn't he know that it would make her heart ache even more?
Luo Li bit her red lips. She didn't want to refute Mu Chen in front of others, so she just turned her pretty face away and didn't say anything else.
However, this clearly revealed her feelings. She was a little angry.
Li Xuantong shrugged.
However, his heart was slightly sour. In his opinion, to be able to make Luo Li, who had always been quiet and independent, who did not feel happy or sad because of material things, to feel angry …
This was already something that made people jealous.
At the very least, she would only be angry at someone who truly caught her attention.
Mu Chen looked at Luo Li's beautiful face that was as delicate as white porcelain and couldn't help but smile. This was the first time he had seen Luo Li angry at him. He immediately reached out and grabbed the girl's slender hand.
The latter originally wanted to take it back, but after seeing the injuries all over Mu Chen's body, she couldn't bring herself to do so.
She could only allow him to hold her hand. However, her rosy lips pouted in a fit of pique.
"I know you have some hidden trump cards. Once you use them, you'll definitely be stronger than me," Mu Chen said slowly.
"But I think you should also know that after you use those trump cards, you won't be able to escape.
What kind of consequences would there be? "
Luo Li was stunned as she bit on her rosy lips. Mu Chen's intuition was extremely sharp. Although there were some things that she didn't say, the latter could still sense it. She did have some powerful trump cards, but the moment she used them, her grandfather, Luo Tianshen, might sense it.
After all, she was the next Empress of the Luo God Clan. Luo Tianshen couldn't allow her to leave the Luo God Clan without any protection. Furthermore, the moment she used those trump cards, it meant that she had encountered danger, which wasn't something that Luo Tianshen was willing to see.
Therefore, when those trump cards were used time and time again, Luo Tianshen would probably take measures to bring Luo Li back to the Luo God Clan. If that's the case, then the time when Mu Chen and Luo Li would be separated would be brought forward.
Mu Chen treasured the time that he could spend with Luo Li. He wasn't willing to see such a scene. Therefore, he would use such a method to ensure that Luo Li was safe. He was willing to bear all the so-called dangers and fights.
"I only want to be with you for a little longer. Therefore, don't blame me for being selfish in protecting you."
Mu Chen slowly tightened his grip on Luo Li's slender jade-like hand. His voice slowly seeped into Luo Li's heart, causing ripples to surface, completely suppressing the little bit of resentment.
Luo Li gently nodded her head. A faint smile surfaced on her jade-like face, appearing exceedingly soul-stirring.
"Relax, I won't force myself. If there's really no other way, then you can take action. How about it?" said Mu Chen with a faint smile.
"Okay." Luo Li obediently nodded her head.
"Do you really have a way to deal with Mo Longzi?" asked Li Xuantong with a sigh.
"I'll try my best."
Mu Chen nodded his head. Staring at Mo Longzi in the distance, a chilling intent gushed out from his black pupils. "However, I need you guys to buy some time for me."
"Okay!" replied Li Xuantong without any hesitation.
"Then I'll leave it to you."
Taking a deep breath, Mu Chen did not say anything else. Instead, he slowly closed his eyes. This caused countless people to feel shocked. Could it be that Mu Chen was preparing another powerful Spiritual Array?
However, why wasn't he able to sense any fluctuations from the Spiritual Array?
"Hmph, acting all mysterious!"
Upon seeing this scene, Mo Longzi's eyes narrowed. With regards to Mu Chen's innumerable methods, it had to be said that he had started to feel some fear. Naturally, he would not give his opponent any chance to make a comeback. After all, he was currently fighting with all his might. Even if he won, he would have to pay an extremely high price. Therefore, he would absolutely not allow any unforeseen events to occur.
Whoosh!
With a clench of his hands, boundless Spiritual Energy swept out and filled the horizon. With a move of his body, he explosively shot out.
Seeing this, Li Xuantong immediately rushed out. Circulating his Spiritual Energy to its limits, he enveloped Mo Longzi.
"Scram!"
However, faced against his obstruction, a sneer rang out from Mo Longzi's mouth as he sent a fist rumbling out. There weren't any fanciful moves in his fist, only extremely boundless and overbearing Spiritual Energy sweeping out.
Bang!
The two boundless Spiritual Energies collided, causing a loud sound to ring out.
Li Xuantong's body violently trembled as he was sent flying out in an instant. Traces of blood surfaced from the corner of his mouth. Only after personally crossing hands with Mo Longzi did he understand how powerful the latter was.
Bang!
Just as Li Xuantong was sent flying, a swift and fierce river of Sword Aura descended from the sky, heavily smashing against Mo Longzi's body.
Wielding the longsword in his hand, Luo Li swiftly shot out, unleashing a swift and fierce attack.
The two of them used all their means to delay Mo Longzi as much as possible.
This scene caused countless people to hold their breaths. The fight between the two had already become rather intense.
While Li Xuantong and Luo Li were doing their best to tie down Mo Longzi.
Within Mu Chen's aurasea, the Spirit that sat within it opened its eyes. In the next instant, with a move of its body, it flew towards the centre of the aurasea.
There was a dark purple Mandala Flower there.
Within the heart of the flower, a jet-black demonic pillar stood erect. Purple-coloured chains wrapped around the demonic pillar, sealing it.
This was the "Great Meru Demonic Pillar" that Mu Chen had obtained from the White Dragon Sovereign's Spirit Treasury. However, this item was too ferocious.
Back then, if not for the mysterious black paper suppressing Mu Chen's body, his mind might have already been corroded by the demonic energy.
Ever since he obtained it, Mu Chen did not dare to rashly use it.
However, in the current situation, he had no choice but to use it. If not, it would be extremely difficult for them to deal with Mo Longzi in his current state.
Raising his head, Mu Chen's gaze turned fierce as he stared at the "Great Meru Demonic Pillar" before him.
With a low and deep voice, he said, "If you don't want to be sealed here forever, you better cooperate with me!"
Humm!
Humm! As Mu Chen's voice rang out.
Black rays of brilliance unexpectedly erupted from the Great Meru Demonic Pillar. As the demonic energy rippled out, it appeared as though it wanted to sweep towards Mu Chen. Chi!
Chi!
However, before the demonic energy could spread out, the dark purple Mandala Flower erupted with purple rays of brilliance. Upon coming into contact with the purple rays of brilliance, the demonic energy was akin to snow that had encountered lava, rapidly melting away.
The Great Meru Demonic Pillar was indeed worthy of its name as a vicious weapon, as it was extremely hard to tame.
"If you want to corrode me, we'll have to see if you have the ability to do so!"
Mu Chen's voice was low and deep. In the next instant, his Spirit took a step forward, directly piercing into the Mandala Flower. Extending his small hand, he touched the surface of the Great Meru Demonic Pillar.
Bang!
At the instant when Mu Chen's Spirit made contact with the Great Meru Demonic Pillar, an indescribable demonic energy abruptly radiated out. Following along the arm of Mu Chen's Spirit, it crazily corroded it. In the short span of a few breaths, Mu Chen's Spirit had unexpectedly been dyed in a scarlet-red colour, appearing just like a blood-red infant, causing people to feel fear at the sight of it.
Mu Chen's eyes continuously alternated between scarlet-red and jet-black, as the incomparably overbearing demonic energy rampaged within his body, before furiously sweeping out.
This was an exceedingly powerful force!
However, it was able to corrode one's reason, turning one into a murderous wild beast!
Mu Chen tightly clenched his teeth as he resisted the corrosion. He knew that if he wanted to control this demonic energy, he would need to resist the corrosion!
Killing intent crazily battered Mu Chen's spirit, causing a tyrannical killing intent to gush out from his heart.
His eyes were nearly scarlet-red.
Buzz buzz!
However, just at this moment, the mysterious black paper beneath the mandala flower started to faintly sparkle with a peculiar lustre. In the next instant, the beautiful petals of the mandala flower extended out, wrapping around Mu Chen's Spirit.
A cooling sensation transmitted over, slowly suppressing the tyrannical killing intent in Mu Chen's heart.
Mu Chen's eyes abruptly widened. Although the periphery of his eyes was blood-red, his pupils were still pitch-black and clear!
Mu Chen slowly spread out his hands, as a torrential blood-red energy swept out like a tidal wave, covering the sky and covering the earth. In the end, it surged towards Mu Chen's limbs and bones.
In the sky above Western Desolated City, Mu Chen's tightly shut eyes abruptly opened at this moment.
Everyone could feel that the temperature of the world seemed to have dropped at this moment.
