In the sky, Chen Murong was fighting with dozens of cultivators. Many of them were seriously injured and had no strength to chase after him. Chen Murong summoned his Divine Martial Cave's flute and blew into it. Many of his pursuers were unable to withstand the spiritual current and were at a disadvantage.
He laughed coldly and flew towards the golden platform. Just as he was about to obtain the soul box, a red flame barrier suddenly fell in front of him. Then, a ring of fire ignited beside the platform and enveloped the entire golden platform!
Chen Murong turned around and spread his wings. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Lord Xi He … Are you also here to stop me?"
Separated by the golden red star fire, Mo Xi looked at Jun Shang's face. This man once had a thousand faces, good or evil, angry or kind. Perhaps he had lived like this his entire life. He had lived a thousand faces but had long lost his original face.
Even now, Chen Murong was glaring at him with obvious anger, but it did not seem real.
Chen Murong had always been "Jun Shang". He could never be "himself".
This person's past lies and schemes flashed through Mo Xie's mind like a merry-go-round lantern. Although Mo Xie was silent, he suppressed his anger very deeply. He did not even want to waste any more words with Jun Shang. He only moved forward, the snake whip in his hand swinging out like lightning, fiercely lashing towards Murong Chen's chest.
Chen Murong could not dodge in time and used his phoenix wings to block Mo Xi's snake whip. He gritted his teeth and said, "Meng Ze has really done a good deed. She actually removed your Puppet Pill …!"
Before he could finish speaking, another light flashed past and attacked Chen Murong's abdomen.
Mo Xi said coldly, "I have nothing to say to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, he tapped the formation in the air with the tip of his foot and leaped high into the air. Then, the red snake whip lashed down violently!
This time, Murong Lian didn't dare to be distracted. He spread his wings and dodged the storm of attacks. However, he knew very well that it was the same as Gu Mang's "Lone Wolf Unsealing". When a cultivator unsealed the spirit body of a demonic beast or immortal beast in their body, although it could greatly increase their combat strength in a short period of time, it was still a desperate move.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he would no longer be able to control the spirit of the immortal beast. Instead, his meridians would explode, and he would lose all of his spiritual power. He had to seize the soul box in the blink of an eye, and use his own soul and life to forcefully shatter the box and release the world-defying power of the Bloodsucking Scourge.
However, Mo Xi's strength was too strong. Murong Chen felt that he was unable to make ends meet. Translator: Transn Editor: Transn Seeing the flames in Flourishing Chong City, the armored cultivators rushed in from all directions. The silver light from their swords gathered in one place, like a long winding dragon. Their claws were ferocious as they swam towards him, intending to swallow him in this mutiny.
Mo Xi turned into a sword and said coldly, "This is the end."
After he finished speaking, a cold light flashed. He raised his sword and stabbed towards Murong Chen.
At this moment, the wind and clouds in the sky suddenly surged. Then, a white light appeared from the depths of the thick clouds. It was like a sharp sword. Before anyone could react, a thunderbolt struck down from the sky.
"Boom —!"
The blinding light of the thunderbolt struck down towards the golden platform. It instantly extinguished the protective enchantment around the platform that Mo Xi had set up. The blazing fire that burned half of the sky instantly turned into a piece of scorched earth. There was only a hissing sound and green smoke rising from it. At the same time, Mo Xi's face turned pale. He immediately half-knelt on the cloud of the enchantment.
Murong Chen did not expect that there would be such a sudden reversal, but after a moment, he came to his senses. He narrowed his eyes and muttered, "The oath of the heavenly tribulation …"
In the chaotic battle, they had all forgotten that Mo Xi had once sworn the oath of the heavenly tribulation to him. He had sworn that he would be loyal to Chong Hua and Junshang. Mo Xi did not violate the first half of the oath. But the second half had violated the oath when Mo Xi really wanted to kill him. Thus, the heavenly tribulation had not only broken the enchantment that Mo Xi had set up, but the oath had also backfired on Mo Xi, causing him to be seriously injured.
Mo Xi knelt down and suddenly coughed out a mouthful of blood.
"Ha …" Murong Chen stared at Mo Xi. After a while, the corners of his mouth twitched. He laughed eerily, "Haha … hahahaha …"
He landed on the golden platform. Before the reinforcements from all directions arrived, he stood in front of the soul box that was flowing with colorful lights.
Junshang's expression was so twisted by hatred and madness that he looked like a ghost.
"Fireball, it's all thanks to you wanting to protect the remnants of your brother Gu Mang's troops that you swore the oath of the heavenly tribulation." He raised his hand and hovered above the soul box. His face was as pale as a ghost under the light of the soul box. "You better remember, you originally had the ability to stop me — it was your will that helped me push this country that was unwilling to be tamed into the depths of hell!"
Mo Xi struggled to stand up. Even if he would be turned into ashes by the heavenly tribulation, he could not let Murong Chen obtain that box.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
It was already not easy to maintain one's rationality under the torture of the ancient oath. Moreover, Mo Xi wanted to go against the heavens. The heavy clouds in the Nine Heavens seemed to be enraged. There was a faint hiss of thunder circling in the sky, ready to swoop down at any time and tear this mortal who did not know what was good for him into ashes.
At this moment, Murong Chen clasped his hands together and covered them from top to bottom.
A dazzling golden light shot into the Nine Heavens and collided with the surging wind and thunder in the sky. In an instant, tigers roared and dragons roared. The mountains and rivers changed color. It was as if millions of ghosts were about to break out from the ground. The earth shook.
Mo Xi coughed and broke through the imprisonment of the oath of the heavenly tribulation. He faced the great light that could turn into thousands of sharp arrows and attack Murong Chen.
"You … you can't …"
However, Murong Chen had already flown high up in the sky. He held the box that sealed the power of the Bloodsucking Scourge and injected his soul and life force into the box. The glass box that Gu Mang condensed using his soul made a strange sound in his palm and slowly cracked open. Murong Chen raised his head and let out a terrifying laughter that sounded like a night owl.
This was the first time in his life that he had laughed so freely, without any concealment, without any planning or consideration. He let out a long laugh and looked down at the capital city that had trapped him for his entire life. Then, with a roar, he smashed down the soul box in his palm!
In an instant, the fragments scattered in all directions!
The broken soul box immediately surged out a terrifying black demonic spiritual power that was as vast as the ocean and rushed towards the four seas. It roared angrily and danced in the sky. In an instant, the galaxy in the sky disappeared, and the shadow of the moon was covered in dust. At this moment, Murong Chen had already been swallowed into an almost transparent shadow. The light of the curse was fully displayed in his eyes as he looked around at everything. His voice was vague and crazy.
"Look, this is the choice that you have made! You are not willing to listen to orders obediently. You have made my life difficult. I will also … want your peaceful days … but you can't … get it! "
As soon as he finished speaking, he was torn into pieces by the tornado formed by the Bloodsucking Scourge's spiritual power. Only his terrifying laughter was like a whirlpool in the Bloodsucking Scourge's spiritual power.
"The power of the Bloodsucking Scourge has been unsealed!"
"Not good!"
There were screams and cries in King City. The flames in the entire capital city flashed with fear at this moment. The surging power in the soul box continued to grow stronger and stronger. The place where Murong Chen was swallowed exploded with a strong white light that could make people dizzy.
Mo Xi was the person closest to the array. He could almost feel the weight of a thousand tons pressing down on his spine. The feeling of insignificance in front of a great disaster almost destroyed him.
He lost consciousness in an instant.
But in that instant, Mo Xi seemed to see a ray of golden light that was completely different from the violent black demonic power floating out from the collapsed soul box.
That golden light turned into a blurry reflection. It was a young Gu Mang, wearing armor and a hood. He had a frivolous look in his eyes. He flew out of the broken soul box towards the changing sky.
Mo Xi reached out and wanted to call out his name, but his throat was full of salty blood.
The two words were stuck in his throat.
Gu … mang …
Then he fell. He fell from the high altitude of the fierce battle. He fell …
Finally, he fell into a heavy darkness.
When Mo Xi woke up, he found himself lying on a bed. There were some blurry green figures moving back and forth around him. His long eyelashes fluttered, and he gradually saw the scene here.
It was the Healing Pavilion of Shennongtai. Those moving figures were the medicine cultivators of Shennongtai. They shuttled back and forth between the sickbeds, treating the injured cultivators. Mo Mie regained his composure. His buzzing ears were flooded with people's voices. There was the sound of crying on the medical couch beside him, the comforting voices of his relatives, and the incantations of medicine cultivators as they cast spells.
He slowly regained his consciousness in these voices. What happened before he lost consciousness flashed through his mind.
The rebellion in the Throne Room, the birth of Jingchen, the soul box, the overflowing light …
"Gu Mang!"
He suddenly sat up. His injured muscles were suddenly pulled and hurt. He suddenly frowned. Under his dark brows were tightly shut eyes and neat long eyelashes.
His awakening attracted the attention of others. Someone hurried to his sickbed, "Brother Mo."
Mo Xi supported his forehead with his hand and rubbed the side of his forehead that was hurting so much that it felt like it was going to split. When he looked up, his eyes were red. He faced the Murong Meng Ze's face.
Meng Ze looked like he hadn't taken care of himself for many days. His hair was tied up in a simple bun, and he wore a black robe with golden edges. His cheeks were covered in soot from gunpowder at some point in time.
Mo Xi opened his mouth. His throat was very dry. He swallowed with difficulty and was able to control his voice so that it was not so strange, "This … what happened? Where's Gu Mang? How's Bloodsucking Scourge, Liaoguo — "
Meng Ze looked around with wet eyes. She did not need to say too much. Mo Xi could already guess the current situation of Chong Hua. The largest healing pavilion in Shennongtai was already full of seriously injured practitioners. Some were injured by spells, swords, and some were attacked by the Black Demon. They were suppressed on the cold stone bed by the Spirit-Locking Chains.
At a glance, he saw many familiar colleagues. In the distance, Yue Chenqing was talking to a medicine cultivator. In fact, it had only been half a month, but Yue Chenqing no longer looked like a teenager. Her brows were deeply furrowed, and when she spoke, there was no smile on her face. He was teaching the medicine cultivator how to control his bamboo warrior, so that he could be of help in this chaotic situation.
"The power of Bloodsucking Scourge was broken. After Jingchen absorbed the power, he followed Murong's last wish and turned to Liaoguo." Meng Ze's expression was very bad, "Liaoguo gained the power of Bloodsucking Scourge. No one can stop their momentum. They have already reached the outside of the capital. Brother Lian led the army to resist for seven days. But I'm afraid they won't be able to hold on tomorrow. The master of Liaoguo is about to come out — he is completely refining Jingchen. It should be tomorrow. Bloodsucking Scourge will be reborn. "
Mo Xi, "… I've been in a coma for seven days?"
Meng Ze nodded. But when she saw his expression, she hurriedly said, "Don't worry. Even if things have come to this point, it may not be a dead end. Didn't Palace Master Chen Tang also stop Bloodsucking Scourge from conquering the world? Brother Lian is already reorganizing all the armored soldiers in the capital. He is preparing to command the three major armies to fight Liaoguo tomorrow. "
Mo Xi closed his eyes, "No matter how capable Murong Lian is, he can't command three major armies at the same time. He can't suppress three armies at all."
"But you're awake, aren't you?" After a pause, she continued, "You can command the Red Plume Battalion. Brother Lian will lead the group of practitioners he is familiar with. As for the Northern Frontier Army …"
She pursed her lips. Her eyes flashed with an indecipherable luster.
Mo Xi was stunned. Then, as if he had sensed something, his heart suddenly beat faster. He stared into Meng Ze's eyes, "How is the Northern Frontier Army?"
"I, I have good news." Meng Ze seemed to be afraid of making his heart tremble even more, so she lowered her voice. But what was the use? What she wanted to say was already like a drop of water or boiling oil. It was destined to cause an explosion. "Gu Mang, he …"
Mo Xi's lips parted slightly. He stared at her and his voice was almost inaudible, "What about him?"
"He has completely recovered. After experiencing this disaster, he has been rehabilitated. Three days ago, he took command of the Northern Frontier Army again. Now, he is training his soldiers in the military field for tomorrow's battle."
Mo Xi, "!!!"
