One of the royal family's trump cards, the Nakagawa Empire's prodigy in physical skills, was killed by Mu Li. The entire process was a crushing defeat.
Looking at the blood-colored light that exploded in the sky, everyone's face froze.
No one would have thought that Mu Li, the leader of the Three Eye Alliance, who was not very eye-catching, would actually explode with such terrifying strength in this battle.
Compared to Hayashikawa's strange methods and invincible spatial abilities, Mu Li didn't have many memorable battles. But today, it was enough to let the entire Cultivation World remember how terrifying he was.
The blood-colored dragon was still soaring in the sky. The aura it emitted had reached a level that no Tribulation Stage cultivator dared to approach.
Below.
Nakagawa Yao Guang's face was extremely pale. She seemed to be stunned as she looked at the dissipating figure in the sky. Her gaze was completely fixed. Until now, she still couldn't accept the fact that Nakagawa was dead.
A Tribulation Stage expert in physical skills was killed in front of everyone just like that. This was a shocking battle for everyone.
In the sky, Mu Li clenched his fists. His face was pale and his chest was heaving up and down violently.
"Brother, come back. It's enough." Hayashikawa's voice suddenly appeared in Mu Li's ears.
Hearing the voice, Mu Li turned to look at Hayashikawa in surprise. After pondering for a moment, he nodded.
The Eight Inner Hidden Gates closed one by one. The blood-colored dragon and the soaring blood qi began to dissipate. Soon, they completely disappeared from the world.
Weng!
The space around Mu Li shattered silently. He took a step forward and disappeared in front of everyone. When he reappeared, he was already standing beside Hayashikawa.
"Actually, I can still kill Nakagawa Yao Guang." Mu Li curled his lips and said.
"You can kill her, but by then, you probably won't even have the strength to stand. You might even have to lie in bed for a year. Do you think it's worth it?" Hayashikawa said.
Although the full opening of the Eight Inner Hidden Gates wouldn't cause the user to die, it was still an explosive body technique that consumed a great deal of the body's energy. An incense stick of time wasn't too much of a problem, but if it was too long, then the weakness and damage caused by the end of the Eight Inner Hidden Gates wasn't something that the average person could withstand.
Only someone like Mu Li, who had cultivated the Buddha Scripture, was able to maintain enough strength to stand beside Hayashikawa even after a long battle. Otherwise, he would definitely have been carried down.
"Have a good rest. Leave the rest of the battle to us," Hayashikawa said.
Mu Li didn't force himself at this moment. He nodded and said, "You guys be careful. I should be able to force them to use their final trump card."
This time he erupted with his full strength, opening the Eight Inner Hidden Gates as soon as the battle began. This was all in order to force out the Royal Family's hidden cards, especially that alchemist peony.
Hayashikawa, as the strongest person on their side, couldn't expose his strength at the beginning. The stalemate situation made the people on both sides constantly wear out, so someone had to stand up and break the balance.
After seeing this point clearly, Mu Li didn't hesitate to take action, paving the way for Hayashikawa.
Killing Nakagawa and seriously injuring Nakagawa Yaoguang, he had already forced the Royal Family into a desperate situation. If the Royal Family didn't take action, then they really only had the road to destruction.
At this time, many cultivators on the continent had already seen the current situation clearly.
Although the Royal Family still had a lot of people, and there were also cultivators from the army who were constantly entering the imperial capital through the transmission array and joining the battlefield, the decline was already difficult to reverse.
Especially in terms of high-level cultivators, they had lost three of their Tribulation Realm cultivators in succession. On the other hand, all the Tribulation Realm cultivators of the Akatsuki organization were fine, and they even had Emperor Qing, who came out of nowhere.
In this way, the Akatsuki had already formed a situation where they crushed the Royal Family in terms of Transcending Tribulation cultivators. In this kind of all-round battle, the high level cultivators were the ones who could determine the direction of the battle. No matter how the people below fought, it was just a small matter, and it was difficult to affect the overall situation.
"Whoosh!"
Lin An's figure suddenly appeared beside the two of them, the Eye of Creation between his eyebrows staring in the direction of the alchemist.
"He's going to make a move!"
As soon as Lin An spoke, the Eye of Creation saw an endless amount of strange, ethereal mist drifting out from below and gathering toward the Peony Alchemist.
This mist couldn't be seen by others, and only the Eye of Creation could see it clearly. It was like wisps of water vapor, diffusing from the ground below. This strange mist spread in all directions, not only in the imperial capital, but also in all directions. As far as the eye could see, there wasn't a single place that was empty.
Hayashikawa's Tenseigan could only see the surrounding space and time fluctuating slightly, especially around the alchemist, but he couldn't see what exactly was happening.
As for the Transcending Tribulation cultivators, the most obvious thing they could feel was that something seemed to have changed in this moment.
This change was obvious, but they couldn't tell the source, nor could they sense where it was coming from. It was more like the feeling that the whole world was changing. No matter where one hid, this change was inevitable and inescapable.
As for cultivators with a lower cultivation base, they would not be able to sense this change.
The alchemist walked out from behind them, his expression cold, and said, "To be able to grasp the situation to this extent, you really are beyond my imagination."
Before, he was still considering whether or not to submit. After all, to him, it didn't matter who the Nakagawa continent fell into. What was important was that he could still maintain his status, second only to one person and above all.
But after Mu Li killed Nakagawa and severely injured Nakagawa's Yao Guang, he knew that Hayashikawa wouldn't accept his submission.
This time, even he had no way out of this battle.
"He … seems to be absorbing some kind of energy …"
Lin An's eyes narrowed slightly. With the Eye of Creation, he saw the mist from the ground gathering towards the alchemist's body, then disappearing into his body.
At the same time, an indescribable pressure began to appear on the alchemist's body.
At this point, even ordinary cultivators could sense the change in the Peony Alchemist's aura. They all looked over in surprise.
"It seems that my guess was correct," Hayashikawa said, looking at the alchemist not far away.
When everyone heard Hayashikawa's words, they couldn't help but look over. Everyone wanted to know what Hayashikawa had guessed.
"For some reason, every time I go to a continent, I form a special connection with the accompanying divine beast of that continent. But what I find strange is that I've never seen a divine beast of the Nakagawa continent!" Hayashikawa looked at the alchemist and said slowly.
