Chapter 321: Chapter 290: Corpse_1

The reason Xu Mu chose to use a skill, rather than unleash a weapon for attack, was not that he didn’t have an attack weapon; instead, he simply didn’t need one.

He possessed the Void Pearl, granting him spiritual power tens of times that of other cultivators at the same level. All his skills and Divine Skills had reached the Transcendent level, with an attack power incomparably stronger than any weapon of the same level.

With both of these, he could easily crush other cultivators of the same level. Unless faced with powerful weapons such as the Sky-splitting Halberd or God Refining Tripod, there was no need for him to use a weapon.

Boom boom boom!

The sword of Fire-controlling Skill unleashed by Xu Mu exploded the moment it neared the Seventh Princess. A massive continuous explosion ensued, with the scorching shockwave swamping everything within hundreds of meters, including the Seventh Princess herself. The entire void trembled.

The Sword Qi released by the Seventh Princess didn’t even get near Xu Mu before it was rendered scattered by the explosion. It offered no attack power anymore, barely forming enough defensive power to protect herself.

With the continuous supply of spiritual power from the Void Pearl within his body, Xu Mu’s attack was relentless. After just a few breaths, the Seventh Princess was already on the brink of collapsing. The deafening roar rendered her mind blank.

Crack!

Her protective spiritual light and Sword Qi suddenly shattered.

Hum!

A layer of cyan light appeared over the Seventh Princess, enveloping her entirely and obstructing all of Xu Mu’s attacks.

This was a life-saving measure left in her body by a high-ranked member of the Imperial family. It would automatically activate whenever she was in mortal danger to help her resist fatal attacks.

She had not expected Xu Mu to be so powerful, forcing out her life-saving measure in an instant, which made her feel humiliated.

As a noble Seventh Princess of the Da Yuan Dynasty, admired by everyone as the proud daughter of heaven, she was forced to reveal her trump card by an old man on the brink of death. This was utterly humiliating.

“Damn servant! I’ll tear him to pieces!”

The maddened Seventh Princess once more took out a purple jade talisman that could kill a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage.

This was one of her trump cards!

Because she was the favorite of an elder, she had considerably more trump cards than the ordinary disciples of the Imperial family.

However, considering the preciousness of the jade talisman, she still felt a twinge of pain in her maddened mind.

Anyone could guess how precious a talisman that could kill a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Stage was.

Using it to kill a Golden Pill Stage cultivator was simply wasteful.

At this moment, the Seventh Princess couldn’t care less. First she was insulted by Xu Mu’s mockery, then she was beaten down. She couldn’t tolerate it any longer.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to fight back using other means, but Xu Mu’s attack was too violent, her usual means of attack couldn’t break through his offense.

Just as she was about to activate the talisman, all attacks around her suddenly stopped. When the smoke cleared, she saw Xu Mu fleeing desperately.

“What a coward!”

The Seventh Princess cursed under her breath, stowed away the talisman, and pursued him.

She was, after all, a little reluctant to use it.

“Now that I have a defensive spiritual light, I’ll deplete his spiritual power first. When the time comes, I can kill him with a single stroke!”

The Seventh Princess insisted on not letting it go.

As for why Xu Mu ran away, naturally, he sensed the huge threat of the talisman.

Due to the help of the Sin Refining Pill, his divine intent had always been maintained at an extremely high level. The moment the Seventh Princess took out the talisman, his heart pounded, and a great sense of crisis arose in him. So, he didn’t hesitate to stop his attack and escape.

On the other hand, he didn’t want to get entangled with the Seventh Princess. After all, his primary goal was not to kill the Seventh Princess, but to leave this palace.

Not to mention the numerous life-saving trump cards from the Imperial family on the Seventh Princess, he wouldn’t be able to kill her even if he wanted to. Even if he had a chance to kill her, he wouldn’t dare to do it.

The Seventh Princess wasn’t only one of the most talented people in the Imperial family, but was also extraordinarily favored by the elder of the Divinity Transformation Stage in the Imperial family. Her status was exceptional. If she was to fall here, it might lead to a personal investigation by that elder.

He was confident that he could deceive a Nascent Soul Stage practitioner, but he wasn’t sure he could fool a Divinity Transformation Stage one. If either the Sky-splitting Halberd or the God Refining Tripod were discovered, he would be inescapable doom.

Therefore, the Seventh Princess could not die, even if she had to die, she must not die in his hands.

“Are you out of your mind?!”

Sensing the relentless pursuit of the Seventh Princess, Xu Mu was almost angered to death.

If you weren’t royalty, I would have killed you a long time ago, why can’t you take a hint!!

However, he was too lazy to argue with the Seventh Princess at this moment, and his first priority was to escape and avoid being trapped by the Black YuanYing with the Formation.

“Hmm? What’s going on here?”

During his escape, Xu Mu noticed some shrunken and deformed corpses on the road. Although it was just a fleeting glance, based on his strong Divine Intent, he recognized them to be the hands of the Seventh Princess.

“No wonder she’s alone, it turns out her subordinates have been killed!”

Xu Mu couldn’t help but feel a bit smug in his heart.

Having lost so many subordinates, regardless of whether she could be the first this time, the Seventh Princess had definitely lost big time.

But who exactly started the attack?

The first person Xu Mu thought of was the Black YuanYing.

Although he despised the Seventh Princess, he had to admit that her subordinates were quite talented, and it would be challenging if they teamed up.

In this small space, aside from the ominous Black YuanYing, he couldn’t think of anyone else who could simultaneously confront so many late Golden Core Stage masters.

It wasn’t possible that there was another powerful Nascent Soul Stage practitioner hidden in the shadows, right?

The royal family would be blind then!

It was already a big pitfall to have one go unnoticed, let alone another one. How were they supposed to keep on living?

“It looks like something sucked all the life force and cultivation from their bodies! Could it be the Black YuanYing’s attack method? No wonder it chose to approach me!”

The horrific sight of the corpses solved one of the doubts in his heart.

The control of nature’s spiritual energy by the YuanYing far exceeded that of the Golden Pill Stage, so the skills deployed naturally had more power. If the two were to confront each other from a distance, he might not be able to defeat the Black YuanYing.

If coupled with a large number of corpse puppets and the assistance of many formations, he would be even more mismatched. So, there was no need for the Black YuanYing to sneak up and attack him.

It looked like it wanted to burrow into his body, absorb his cultivation, and turn him into a corpse just like the others.

If that was the case—

A glimmer of light flashed across Xu Mu’s mind, but before he could grasp it, several more similar corpses appeared. From their slightly familiar faces, it wasn’t hard to recognize that they were cultivators who had come in with them.

The Seventh Princess had also noticed these people. Her pretty face was tense, a hint of hatred mingling with shock.

The strange Black YuanYing was already strong, and now it had absorbed so many cultivators, causing an unsettling unease to take root in the Seventh Princess’s heart.

Unbeknownst to them, as they flew by, aside from corpses, they did not encounter a single corpse puppet.

The Seventh Princess now had no intention of tangling with Xu Mu and, like him, just wanted to leave this place as quickly as possible.

Unfortunately, things were not that simple!

“Hehe! All of you from the Da Yuan Royal Family deserve to die! None of you will escape!”

Buzz!

The entire hall suddenly erupted in a strong light, and the scene before Xu Mu and the Seventh Princess changed all of a sudden, landing them in a completely unfamiliar area.
