The five elements mutually reinforced and restrained each other. The world formed by the five energies was filled with supreme might.
The golden blades, wooden spikes, water waves, fire blades, earth awls, and all sorts of other attacks came one after another. They also relied on the principle of mutual promotion to amplify their attacks. It was as if the world had formed an independent world of the five elements.
Li Xue was struggling to cope with the five elements' world. Although her world of ice could barely protect her, if she couldn't break the world of the five elements, she would die sooner or later.
Ling Xiao looked at the world, and a certain scene kept appearing in his mind.
World of metal — Golden Dragon roars, showing the domineering aura of a ruler!
World of fire — Volcano qilins display their ferocious might!
World of wind — Yin wind wreaks havoc, leaving no corpses behind!
World of ice — Ice mountains seal thousands of miles, raging rivers!
World of wood — Vitality flourishes, and time passes in an instant!
Like a giant painting of a scene, it kept appearing in his mind, and the related profoundness within it.
There seemed to be a special relationship with the mysteries of the five elements' world, but it was hard to grasp.
"The five elements lack earth, but there's wind. How do I combine them?"
Ling Xiao's eyes glowed as he vaguely comprehended something. However, he couldn't connect the nodes one by one.
"It seems like I can only know how to integrate the world's energy by experiencing it myself!" Ling Xiao murmured excitedly. Then, a powerful aura burst out.
"What's wrong with laughing?" Bing Ruoshui sensed that Ling Xiao was acting strangely and asked.
Suddenly, she felt a terrifying aura pressing down on her chest. Looking at the dragon qi that emerged from Ling Xiao's body, she couldn't help but feel a sense of submission.
Yao Qingmin, who was at the side, was already a low-level Earthly Sovereign, but facing Ling Xiao's powerful aura, she felt suffocated. She looked at Ling Xiao with her beautiful eyes and murmured, "What … what a powerful aura. He … could he have been hiding his strength all this time?"
Swish!
Ling Xiao ignored Bing Ruoshui's words. He bounced up from the ground and flew towards the battlefield at full speed.
Bing Ruoshui shouted worriedly at Ling Xiao, "Don't laugh at me. It's a battle between Heavenly Venerables. You can't participate in it!"
"Eh, we can move out now!"
Yao Qingmin was astonished, and then said to Bing Ruoshui: "Junior Sister, don't shout anymore, let's go and help Master!"
"Oh, okay … no, we can't go. With our strength, we'll just be throwing our lives away," said Bing Ruoshui.
"Then what should we do? Could it be that we can only watch as master dies?" Yao Qingmin stamped her foot.
"Senior Sister, don't be anxious. Look …" Bing Ruoshui pointed upwards with a dull look on her face.
Yao Qingmin followed her gaze and her expression changed several times.
The energies of the several minor worlds collided with each other. Any martial artist below the Empyrean Realm would likely be turned to slag if they were to approach. However, a figure had actually managed to forcefully enter the five-colored world as if it didn't require any effort at all.
"Junior Sister … You said that he's called Ling Xiao?" Yao Qingmin asked sluggishly.
Bing Ruoshui nodded heavily. "Yes, I've already told you a thousand times."
"Then he said that he's the First Emperor, right?"
"That's right, he said that, but we didn't believe him."
"Now, do you really think that he's the First Emperor, Ling Xiao?"
"I don't know. I only know that he can save our master, and you're his maid who warms his bed."
…
Even if Ling Xiao didn't increase his combat strength by 20 times, his strength was still comparable to that of a low-level Heavenly Venerable. Although the power of the Five Elements World was very majestic and violent, he still forced his way in.
"Where did this wild kid come from? He actually dares to enter the Five Elements World. He's really courting death!" A low-level Empyrean shouted.
"Who cares about him? He's just a peak Earth Emperor. He really doesn't know what's good for him," another low-level Empyrean said.
"Hurry up and kill this kid, then capture that Li Xue. Something seems to have happened to boss," another person said.
The few of them chatted for a while, and then each of them used all their strength to attack Li Xue and Ling Xiao, who were in the Five Elements World.
Li Xue had long since switched from offense to defense. With her strength, she could still resist for a while.
Once she didn't have a plan to break through the enemy, she would be exhausted to death.
However, when she saw Ling Xiao suddenly barge in, she felt that she couldn't understand what was going on.
The young man in front of her clearly only had the aura of a peak Earth Emperor, but it was as if he could ignore the attacks of the five elements here. He brandished a golden spear in his hand rather casually, and the energy that was pressing down on him was dispersed by him one by one.
She looked at the handsome young man in front of her, who looked like an emperor, and her heart that had been frozen for a long time actually jumped a few times.
"I'll send you out first. I'll deal with them!"
Ling Xiao said indifferently to Li Xue, and the Golden Dragon Spear in his hand blasted out a terrifying dragon-shaped energy towards the energy barrier of the Five Colors World.
Rumble rumble rumble!
The five low-level Empyreans who were controlling the Five Colors World felt their respective auras become unstable, and one of the energy barriers even had a hole blasted open.
"What are you waiting for? Leave them to me!" Ling Xiao's 20x combat power erupted at the same time to block the energy attacks of the five people.
Li Xue came back to her senses and replied, "Thank you for your help. I'll deal with them together!"
"No need. They're perfect for me to practice on. You don't have to interfere. You should go take care of your two disciples who are worried about you!" Ling Xiao replied with a calm smile.
"My two disciples?"
Li Xue murmured, and then she sensed two familiar auras. She immediately cupped her hands towards Ling Xiao and said, "Thank you for saving me. Be careful. If you can't handle it, I'll definitely help you!"
After saying that, Li Xue finally flew out from the hole that Ling Xiao had blasted open.
"Oh no, that woman escaped!" One of the low-level Empyreans said.
"So what if she escaped? We can't catch up with her. Even if we do catch up, I'm afraid we'll be defeated one by one. Let's kill this brat first!" Another low-level Empyrean said angrily.
"Come on, let me have a taste of the true power of your Five Elements World. Don't let me down, or you'll all die miserably!" Ling Xiao said excitedly, holding the Golden Dragon Spear in his hand.
He faintly felt that through this battle, he would definitely gain a lot.
"You're just a peak Earthly Sovereign. How dare you be so arrogant just because you have some ability. Watch me destroy you with one finger!"
The golden-robed Empyrean said with extreme disdain. He kept waving a large number of golden saber shadows in his hand, chopping down at Ling Xiao.
This wave of golden saber shadows could completely smash a mountain into pieces.
In the eyes of the five of them, Ling Xiao was already a dead man.
But in the next moment, they were shocked.
After the young man swung his spear wildly, the golden saber shadows were all smashed into pieces.
"Second Brother, this brat is strange. Why don't we join forces to kill him and then help Boss!" Another low-level Empyrean said.
"Alright, this brat's brain is flooded with water. He actually dares to fight one against five!" Another person replied.
Ling Xiao did not take the initiative to attack. Instead, he quietly waited for the five of them to gather the Five Elements World.
When the five forces superimposed and fused in a mutually reinforcing and restraining trajectory, Ling Xiao's eyes became more and more conflicted.
"The five elements can mutually reinforce and restrain each other, but I'm not one of the five elements. How can I fuse them together?" Ling Xiao muttered as he looked up at the five-colored light curtain.
The energy attacks of the five elements were like a mountain torrent, smashing down on Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao's entire body was covered with five-colored dragon-scale armor. He let the waves of attacks hit his body.
The sharpness of the metal attribute, the toughness of the wood attribute, the continuity of the water attribute, the explosiveness of the fire attribute, and the sturdiness of the earth attribute. Five different attack energies bombarded Ling Xiao's body continuously. It seemed that with every hit, Ling Xiao could understand a little more.
The superimposed power of the five elements caused slight cracks to appear on Ling Xiao's five-colored dragon-scale armor.
Not far away, Bing Ruoshui and Yao Qingmin couldn't help but exclaim when they saw Ling Xiao being submerged by the five-colored light curtain.
"Smile!" Bing Ruoshui's beautiful eyes became misty as she exclaimed.
"I didn't expect that such a small body would actually contain such courage. If you don't die, why can't this lady warm your bed for you!" Yao Qingmin clenched her fist and muttered.
Unknowingly, Ling Xiao's handsome and imposing figure had already been deeply imprinted in her heart.
The sound of breaking wind came from a direction.
"Master!" The two girls exclaimed at the same time when they saw the newcomer.
"These two lasses really made Master worried!" Li Xue looked at her two disciples and said happily.
She originally thought that she wouldn't have the chance to see her two disciples again. Fortunately, her life wasn't fated to end!
"We made Master worried. We were also chased by the Lion's Fang Mercenary Group. They wanted to violate me and my junior sister. Fortunately, we escaped in time. Moreover, we were rescued by Ling Xiao. Only then were we able to escape!" Yao Qingmin immediately went over to support the weak Li Xue and briefly explained.
"It's the Lion's Fang Mercenary Group again. Wait until this matter is over. I'll make them disappear from this Sunset Mountain Range!" Li Xue quickly swallowed a few medicinal pills and angrily said.
"Master, are you alright? Can … can you save Ling Xiao?" Bing Ruoshui came to Li Xue's side and asked.
Her master had already consumed a lot of spiritual power. So, she felt embarrassed to make such a request. However, Ling Xiao was in a very dangerous situation. If she didn't save him, she was afraid …
"Ling Xiao?
The newly born first Emperor Level Expert? What happened to him? "Li Xue asked with a surprised look on her face.
"He was besieged by those five people in order to save Master!" Bing Ruoshui pointed at the sky and said.
"He is Ling Xiao?" Li Xue turned her head and exclaimed.
Yao Qingmin replied, "Yes, Master. He should be the first Emperor Level Expert, Ling Xiao!"
"Then, he and the Wolf King are his helpers?" Li Xue pointed at the prodigal boy and the golden Wolf King and asked.
Both of them nodded. Bing Ruoshui said, "One is his little brother, and the Wolf King is his mount."
"I didn't expect Ling Xiao to be so outstanding. The first Emperor Level Expert is indeed worthy of his name!" Li Xue's beautiful eyes revealed a complicated look as she muttered.
