The Great Ruler - Chapter490

Humm!

The translucent Sword Lotus slowly rose before Luo Li. Hovering in the air, its penetrating brilliance radiated out to every corner of the giant hall.

However, this brilliance did not give people a feeling of warmth. On the contrary, it caused people to feel a dense chill run down their spines. That's because everyone could feel an extremely frightening and sharp Sword Intent contained within the brilliance. That Sword Intent appeared to be able to tear apart the heavens and earth.

Mu Chen's expression turned slightly cold as he watched this spectacle unfold before him. The Sword Intent contained within the Sword Lotus caused even him to feel a chill run down his spine.

At this moment, the faces of Zhen Qing and the rest had turned exceedingly solemn, with a sliver of astonishment present within the depths of their eyes. That's because they could feel a dense aura of death beneath the beautiful Sword Lotus.

Luo Li did not have any intention of warming up with them. Taking action immediately, she had unleashed her true killing move!

Facing the drastic changes in their expressions, Luo Li's beautiful face still remained as cold as frost. Extending her slender jade-like finger, she gave a light tap in the air.

Humm!

The Sword Lotus trembled once again. In the next instant, the petals of the Sword Lotus started to bloom bit by bit. In the next instant, Sword Qi that blotted the skies swept out. In the next instant, the ten petals of the Sword Lotus suddenly shot out. The petals were extremely beautiful. However, under that beauty, there was an irresistible sharpness.

Buzz!

As the lotus petals streaked across the void, even the space was torn apart, leaving shallow cracks.

The Sword Aura instantly seeped out from the petals, leaving behind jet-black, bottomless sword scars on the ground below.

Akin to ten divine swords, the ten beautiful Sword Lotus petals shot straight towards Zhen Qing and the other nine.

Upon seeing the incoming Sword Lotus petals, the pupils of Zhen Qing and the rest violently contracted. Even before the attack arrived, a faint piercing pain could already be felt on their skin. It was hard to imagine exactly how frightening the Sword Intent contained within the petals was.

"Use your full strength!" Zhen Qing furiously roared.

Bang!

As his roar rang out, boundless Spiritual Energy gushed out from his body like a tidal wave. Shock and horror appeared on the faces of the other nine as they circulated all of their Spiritual Energy. Without the slightest hesitation, they unleashed their strongest moves. At this moment, if they still held back, they would undoubtedly die. That's because the Sword Lotus petals were too frightening!

"Divine Wood Spear!"

"Holy Light Palm!"

A series of roars resounded, followed by billowing Spiritual Energy, along with a shocking and majestic attack.

A solemn expression had also appeared on Zhen Qing's face as he abruptly patted his palm out. Boundless Spiritual Energy swept out as rays of brilliance sparkled, transforming into a giant hand akin to a pine tree. Glowing runes covered the surface of the giant hand, while the Spiritual Energy present on it was akin to an ocean, giving off an exceedingly tyrannical feeling of oppression. Clearly, he had also unleashed his true strength.

"Azure Pine God Hand!"

Boom!

Under the attentive gazes of the crowd, the boundless attack swept out. In the next instant, it had already collided with the lotus petals.

Luo Li's clear and beautiful eyes remained calm. However, a cold glint surfaced within them. Soon after, her slender finger gently drew a line, and the space before her seemed to split apart.

Chi chi!

The attacks from both sides intersected, but unexpectedly, there was no earth-shattering collision. The beautiful lotus petals seemed weak, but they were like the edge of a divine sword, indescribably sharp. Wherever the petals passed, the majestic Spiritual Energy attacks were instantly torn apart!

Their attacks were simply unable to obstruct the Sword Lotus petals in the slightest.

At this moment, the eyes of the people from the two groups were filled with complete astonishment, while indescribable fear gushed out from their hearts. They never imagined that this killing move of Luo Li would actually be so powerful. Even with their full strength, they were still unable to obstruct it in the slightest.

Whoosh!

While they were overwhelmed with shock, the lotus petals had already streaked across the sky. With a whoosh, they arrived right before them.

A chilling aura enveloped them, causing their faces to turn deathly pale. Hastily wanting to flee, however, it was clearly too late. As the petals shot past at lightning speed, they brought along a chilling sensation akin to the edge of a blade.

Fresh blood splattered out.

The nine figures had unexpectedly turned stiff in an instant. Fresh blood spurted out from their arms as the nine arms shot towards the sky, their severed parts appearing as smooth as a mirror.

Ah!

Mournful shrieks rang out as the nine figures miserably fell down, clutching their severed arms as they howled in pain. Their originally tyrannical Spiritual Energies rapidly withered, while blood flowed endlessly from their severed arms. Clearly, the swift and fierce Sword Intent had seeped into their bodies. Regardless of how much they circulated their Spiritual Energies, they were unable to erase it.

Hearing those miserable shrieks, Luo Li did not move a single inch. Her pair of beautiful eyes looked towards the front, where the Sword Lotus petals were unable to achieve an irresistible breakthrough. Instead, they were temporarily obstructed by Zhen Qing's attacks. After all, no matter what, Zhen Qing was someone who had passed his Spiritual Energy Disaster. Compared to the other nine people, he was indeed much more tyrannical.

However, although Zhen Qing had temporarily obstructed the Sword Lotus petals, he had clearly used all of his strength. In fact, there were even beads of cold sweat appearing on his forehead. The frightening Sword Intent had stimulated the Spiritual Energy within his body to the point of showing signs of instability.

"Damn it!"

Zhen Qing clenched his teeth. Hearing those miserable shrieks, his heart trembled. He never imagined that Luo Li's attacks would actually reach such a terrifying degree. That attack might not be any weaker than the one unleashed by Mu Chen. However, Mu Chen's attack was more of a single-target attack!

Luo Li's attack, on the other hand, was able to deal with multiple people.

"Indeed worthy of the strength of someone who has passed his Spiritual Energy Disaster."

Looking at Zhen Qing, who had persevered, Luo Li said in an indifferent tone. In the next instant, her jade-like hand grasped the Luo God Sword, causing the body of the sword to faintly tremble.

Humm Humm!

Sword cries rang out as the Sword Lotus petals that had sliced apart the other nine people had unexpectedly shot back. Forming an encirclement, they shot towards Zhen Qing at lightning speed.

This spectacle caused Zhen Qing to be frightened out of his wits. Just defending against a single Sword Lotus petal was already so strenuous for him. If nine more came, although the nine Sword Lotus petals had consumed quite a bit of energy from clashing against the other nine people, it would be more than enough to kill him!

"Bastard!"

Clenching his teeth, Zhen Qing furiously slammed his palm down on the ground. Dark-green Spiritual Energy swept out, pouring into the giant hall.

Bang!

The surrounding giant pillars squirmed and wiggled as vines that hid the skies and covered the earth shot out, transforming into layers of vine shields around Zhen Qing's body.

Bang!

Bang!

The Sword Lotus petals violently shot over, shattering the layers of vines as wood splinters shot out in all directions.

"Don't even think about obtaining the things that I can't obtain! I won't leave the treasures here for you!"

Zhen Qing's face contorted. In the current situation, he had already lost all of his cards. With Luo Li's tyrannical methods, he might not be able to obtain the treasures within the ruins.

Bang!

Zhen Qing's expression turned malevolent as his hand seal furiously changed. In the next instant, numerous dark-green rays of light shot out, shooting towards the giant pillars within the giant hall.

Humm.

All of a sudden, ancient tree patterns surfaced on the surface of the giant pillars. Those tree patterns turned exceedingly bright, as if something had been activated. Incomparably erratic Spiritual Energy fluctuations crazily swept out, while cracks rapidly extended across the surface of the giant pillars.

Bang!

As the tree patterns grew increasingly bright, in the next instant, the giant pillars supporting the giant hall finally exploded apart.

Frightening Spiritual Energy shockwaves wreaked havoc like a storm. Within the giant hall, the vines surrounding the bodies of Tang Mei 'er and the rest were instantly turned into dust. In the next instant, their bodies, which had just managed to break free, were shaken by the frightening shock waves, causing them to spurt mouthfuls of blood, while their bodies were swept up by the storm.

At this moment, the giant hall appeared to be on the verge of collapse. As space distorted, cracks appeared, before devouring the bodies of Tang Mei 'er and the rest.

This Zhen Qing seemed to have activated the self-destruct mechanism of the giant hall.

"Haha! All of you will soon be expelled from this place!

Remember this! This matter isn't over yet! The next time, I'll make all of you pay with your blood! "

A malevolent expression appeared on Zhen Qing's face. The situation that seemed to be under his control had, in the end, turned into such a state because of Mu Chen and Luo Li. How could he not be enraged by this?

With a fierce laugh, with a shake of his sleeve, vines shot out, wrapping around his four group members. As he explosively retreated, he retreated into a spatial crack. As for Xia Hou and the rest, he clearly didn't have the mood to care about them.

Mu Chen was also slightly startled by the unforeseen event happening before his eyes. Shooting out, he arrived by Luo Li's side. At this moment, Xu Huang, Zhao Qingshan and Mu Fengyang had also escaped from their predicament, rushing over at the same time.

"What should we do?

This place seems to be on the verge of collapse, "asked Xu Huang anxiously.

Hearing that, a frown appeared on Mu Chen's forehead. In the next instant, his gaze turned towards the Divine Wood Guard that he had sealed within the giant hall. Clearly, only this Divine Wood Guard was the genuine treasure.

They had exhausted quite a bit of their energy here, so he absolutely didn't want to return empty-handed!

"Take it away!"

Making a prompt decision, Mu Chen gave a low roar as his figure explosively shot out. Appearing before the Eugenia, he grabbed it, wanting to store it into his Sumeru Bracelet. However, he discovered that he was simply unable to succeed.

"Damn it!"

Cursed Mu Chen. Looking at the spatial cracks that were rapidly extending towards him, he stomped his foot, immediately activating his Lightning God's Physique. In the next instant, he grabbed onto the giant arm of the Eugenia. From the looks of it, he was actually planning to directly carry it away!

Creak.

The weight of the Eugenia was sufficient to be akin to a mountain peak. Therefore, even after activating his Lightning God's Physique, Mu Chen was still fiercely pressed down, causing cold sweat to appear on his forehead.

Whoosh!

Seeing this, Luo Li, Xu Huang and the rest rapidly rushed over. Extending their hands to grab onto the Eugenia, they circulated their Spiritual Energies, lifting up the gigantic Eugenia together with Mu Chen.

"Let's go, be careful!"

Firmly grabbing onto the Eugenia, Mu Chen and the other four grinned towards the four of them, before taking the initiative to rush towards a spatial crack.

Whoosh!

Carrying the Eugenia, the five of them rushed out. Staring at the rampant Spiritual Energy fluctuations wreaking havoc, they rushed into the spatial crack, before rapidly disappearing from sight.

Bang!

Bang!

As Mu Chen and the rest disappeared into the spatial crack, the giant hall finally couldn't endure it any longer, and completely collapsed. As the Spiritual Energy storm wreaked havoc, the giant hall completely disappeared.
