How powerful was Hua Xiangrong?
In his prime, he was not inferior to Li Mu at all.
An innate Daoist Body would allow one to cultivate any technique extremely quickly.
However, because he didn't like fighting and killing, he rarely took action.
However, in the Immortal Ancient arena battles, the strength she revealed could be said to be unrivalled.
At present, for some reason, Hua Xiangrong's strength had not yet recovered to the peak.
But it was still far higher than Li Mu's.
His signature killing move [Crepe Myrtle Sky Net] could imperceptibly set up an inescapable net between heaven and earth. With a single thought, he could capture and kill all living things.
Back then, Hua Xiangrong had also easily captured and killed the Saint-level killer from the Dead Mansion with this move.
Once the net was opened, the Grim Reaper would descend.
Blood mist filled the air.
"Dead?"
Fiend Mountain stood in the distance, his heart filled with horror.
That young man named Li Mu was so strong that even he couldn't see through him.
However, under Revered White's means, he was still instantly killed.
His Excellency [Revered White] was indeed a peerless genius produced by the Dao Sovereign Alliance. He was recognized as an existence comparable to the 'Three Unparalleled' of the ascenders' camp.
As he thought of this, the hair on his body suddenly stood on end.
An unprecedented sense of danger enveloped him.
"Not good."
He screamed in his heart and subconsciously left his original position. At the same time, three blood-colored shields flew out from his body and surrounded him like fluorescent lights.
The next moment, bang bang bang.
The three shields were smashed into powder at the same time.
An arc of light flashed.
Li Mu, who was supposed to die in the Empyrean Crepe Myrtle Net, appeared like a ghost. With a dark golden long broadsword in his hand, he cut through the three True Devil Shields of the Devil Mountain as if he was cutting a dough figurine, and directly aimed at the vital parts of the Devil Mountain. The speed was so fast that the Devil Mountain had no time to resist or dodge.
"How is this possible?"
Fiend Mountain's mind was completely blank.
Just as he was about to die under the saber, hundreds of strands of purple light brushed past his face.
The next moment, Li Mu's body was pierced through, and another cloud of blood mist rose.
But this time, no one was careless.
Sure enough, Li Mu didn't die.
The saber light split the gloomy sea of clouds like a golden lightning.
The young skeletal Kun Peng, which was rushing over from afar to provide support, let out a long roar.
Screech!
Billowing black Devil Qi of the Dead Spirit was generated from the Kunpeng's skeleton and swept towards Li Mu.
It was the main general of the Necromancy Path. He had driven his mount over to provide support.
Just like the Devil Mountain, the master of the Dead Spirit Path dared not let Hua Xiangrong fight with Li Mu after he sensed that something was wrong. Once something happened to Hua Xiangrong, the master of the Dead Spirit Path would be buried with this Revered White.
Li Mu made three moves in a row.
Three gigantic saber lights split the sky and earth, splitting the Dead Spirits Demonic Qi apart.
…
On the ground.
In Lover's Valley.
"Your honor, it's Brother Li Mu's signal for us to retreat."
Wang Chuxuan said anxiously as he looked at the golden saber light in the sky.
Li Qingxin said, "From the looks of it, Brother Li is in trouble. His ambush failed, and he's holding back the experts of the True Demon Dao and the Dead Spirit Dao on his own. We … should retreat."
Li Mingzhe, who had pretended to be dead, hesitated and said, "But, isn't Brother Li in danger? We …"
Li Qingxin said, "We can't intervene in a battle of this level. If we force our way in, Brother Li's efforts will be in vain. Chuxuan, didn't you say that Brother Li gave you a way to leave? It's now. Let's do it."
Wang Chuxuan did not hesitate anymore. He took out a light golden hiltless knife from his bosom.
He took out the knife according to the method taught by Li Mu.
A golden saber radiance surged out, enveloping everyone within it.
"Go!"
The knife flew ahead to lead the way.
Li Qingxin and the others followed closely behind.
Along the way, they did not encounter any obstacles and rushed out of the encirclement of the True Demon Dao and the Dead Spirit Path.
The armies of the two paths seemed to be non-existent.
In less than half an hour, the two battalions of the Ning Ping Iron Guards successfully retreated to a safe area.
"So easy?"
Li Mubai, Murong Buzhen, and the others found it a little hard to believe.
It gave off the feeling that the two armies had purposely opened up a gap to let them out.
"What should we do next?"
Li Mingzhe asked.
Li Qingxin gritted her teeth and said, "At this critical moment, we must not be afraid to fight. Let's bypass the Lovers Valley and go to support Ning Wangcheng."
Everyone's eyes lit up.
The army immediately set off.
…
High in the sky.
Li Mu's figure flashed and reappeared.
He got out of the control range of the Heavenly Net of Crape Myrtle.
"Well, that's enough."
He quickly retreated.
The Somersault Cloud, the Broadsword-commanding Skill, and the escape skill of the Annihilation of the Ten Realms made it not too difficult for him to go invisible.
Hua Xiangrong stood on the purple boat, her beautiful willowy eyebrows slightly wrinkled.
"Your honor."
The Devil Mountain and the master of the Dead Spirit Path knelt on one knee outside the purple boat, still in shock.
Today, if it weren't for Revered White, the two of them would have been killed by the young man named Li Mu hundreds of times.
Hua Xiangrong rubbed her eyebrows.
This was a habitual movement.
Whenever she encountered something she couldn't figure out, she would subconsciously make this movement.
She didn't know where this habit came from.
Now there was a question that Hua Xiangrong couldn't figure out. How on earth did Li Mu break her Heavenly Net of Crape Myrtle?
In theory, anyone trapped in the domain of the Heavenly Net of Crape Myrtle, even a top expert, couldn't escape from this inescapable net.
But Li Mu had escaped more than once, and in the end, he easily escaped from the battlefield.
Until now, Hua Xiangrong didn't know the reason.
"Your honor …" The Devil Mountain subconsciously reminded her.
Hua Xiangrong rubbed her eyebrows again and said, "Well, Li Mu has left and won't show up again. You and Youquan, personally break that tactical deployment. I'm going to slaughter the people in the Lovers Valley … Eh?"
Before she finished speaking, she suddenly froze.
Because at this moment, she noticed that the Lovers Valley below was actually empty.
The remaining soldiers of the two battalions of the Ningping Iron Guards who were trapped in it had disappeared.
When did this happen?
Hua Xiangrong suddenly stepped down from the purple boat. With a step, the space rippled, and she had already arrived in the Lovers Valley.
The Devil Mountain and Youquan didn't dare to hesitate. They hurriedly swooped down and also entered the valley.
The two of them were also puzzled.
The Ningping Iron Guards, who were already trapped, had all disappeared?
In the Lovers Valley, it didn't seem that there had been a battle, because there were no signs of forcible breakout.
The encirclement of the two armies was still intact.
"What's going on?"
Standing in the Lovers Valley, Hua Xiangrong closed her eyes and carefully sensed, as if she was thinking about something.
About half an hour later.
She suddenly opened her eyes.
"I know, it's time."
There was a trace of surprise on her face.
"In the ascenders' camp, there is a genius who has mastered the profound meaning of time?"
"Pass the order, all troops retreat."
Hua Xiangrong rose to the sky and returned to the purple boat.
The boat broke through the sea of clouds, seemingly slow but actually fast, and disappeared in the void.
The two old rivals, the Devil Mountain and Youquan, looked at each other and didn't understand why Revered White gave such an order.
Because even so far, the coalition forces of the six realms had an absolute advantage.
"Suddenly retreat?
Is he afraid of Li Mu? "
"Impossible."
"This is not Revered White's style."
But the two of them didn't have the guts to question Revered White's decision.
The orders were issued one after another.
Retreat.
…
…
"It's really dangerous to fight against Hua 'er."
Li Mu fled to the safe area, his forehead covered with cold sweat.
No one had ever brought such a great threat and pressure to Li Mu.
If he hadn't mastered the profound meaning of time and performed it continuously, Li Mu would have been crushed by the power of the Heavenly Net of Crape Myrtle.
He landed on a lonely peak and looked in the direction of the Lovers Valley.
Li Mu set the time again in the gloomy sea of clouds before he really launched the attack. That was how he managed to escape from Hua Xiangrong's merciless killing and rescue Li Qingxin and the others unknowingly.
Hua Xiangrong thought that the whole battle would only last half an hour.
In fact, the real time flow outside was two hours.
This time disorder made her lose the upper hand.
Otherwise, today, Li Mu could only escape by himself at most. It was absolutely a fool's dream to rescue Li Qingxin and the others.
"Hua 'er's current cultivation is much higher than mine. At this time, she must have understood my law of time. The next time I meet her, it will be dangerous … I didn't expect that one day I, Li Mu, would be hunted by my wife so hard."
Li Mu smiled bitterly.
"I have to hurry up and improve my cultivation as soon as possible."
Thinking about it, Li Mu made some adjustments and immediately rushed to Ning Wang City.
At this time, under the siege of the Golden Light Path, Ning Wang City didn't know whether it could hold on.
The reinforcements of Li Qingxin and the others were blocked. The fate of Ning Wang City was not very good.
Li Mu could only try his luck.
Because he had seen the map, about an hour later, Li Mu finally arrived at Ning Wang City.
Looking from a distance, he found that the flag of the ascenders was still flying on the top of the city. Li Mu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
The city was not broken.
He actually managed to hold his ground.
However, why didn't the army of the Golden Light Path outside the city disappear?
.
They had already withdrawn.
Puzzled, Li Mu swooped down.
Swoosh!
He landed on the top of the city.
Unexpectedly, he saw an acquaintance.
"Governor Li?"
Seeing Li Qingxin, Li Mu was quite surprised. Only then did he know that it was this Governor of Ning Ping City who, after escaping from the Lovers Valley, made a prompt decision to help Ning Wang City.
It was really an excellent decision.
"Little brother …" Seeing Li Mu appear, Li Qingxin was relieved.
But the expression on his face was soon replaced by anger and self-blame.
"Ning Wang City fell before our reinforcements arrived. Gold Light Dao massacred wantonly in the city. Almost all of our people died in battle …" Li Qingxin's eyes were moist as she spoke. When their reinforcements arrived, it was already too late. They were unable to reach their comrades in time, causing every Ning Ping City Iron Guard to blame themselves.
"What?"
Hearing this, Li Mu realized that the situation was far worse than he had imagined.
"Since the Golden Light Path has occupied Ning Wang City, why did they retreat?"
He asked.
While they were talking, another army scout came to report, "Your Honor, the army of the Blood Dragon Path in Ning Zhen City has also withdrawn."
"Retreat?"
Only then did everyone realize.
"The allied forces of the six realms actually retreated."
"In the situation where they have the upper hand?"
"What does that mean?"
The eyes of Li Qingxin, Wang Chuxuan, Li Mubai, and other high-level military officials all fell on Li Mu.
"Were they scared away by this young man?"
That seemed to be the only reason.
