"You madman, you deserve to die."
"Seek revenge for wrongs, repay hatred for grievances, but with an invasion from without, we should unite against the common enemy."
Fists rained down on Deans, and in moments, Deans lay still, beaten to death.
Outside, they were already surrounded by the魍魉.
Some of the魍魉 picked up swords and hacked at the leaves, attempting to break through.
The leaves rang with a clanging sound, as if struck against metal, utterly impervious to damage.
Mo Qi pointed a finger, and the Creation Divine Leaf suddenly swept outwards, wagging its tail and sending the attackers flying, scattering them in a wide area.
The ground quickly cleared, revealing an open space.
Mo Qi leaped into the air, just in time to see the Galactic Emperor supporting the Heavenly Emperor as they approached.
"Your Majesty, Heavenly Emperor, I have the antidote," Mo Qi shouted.
The Heavenly Emperor, seeing the leaves part and the crowd disperse, his vision blurred again. He was searching for Mo Qi when he heard the shout and was overjoyed, "Yes, it's him, he has the antidote."
The Emperor led the Heavenly Emperor towards Mo Qi's location.
However, at that very moment, Copper魍 flew out from the crowd, pointed a finger, and a black hole instantly appeared in the air, bottomless, with a swirling vortex at its center, generating an endless suction force that pulled Mo Qi into the abyss of the black hole.
Mo Qi flailed his hands wildly, but still could not stop his body from falling into the abyss.
As expected, he took out the Heaven-Opening Axe and brought it down with a roar, cleaving the black hole into two halves.
The black hole split and dissipated.
Mo Qi's descent halted, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Copper魍 pointed a finger again, and another black hole appeared in the air.
A vortex swirled once more, and an endless suction force struck, pulling him into the abyss. Mo Qi again used the Heaven-Opening Axe to cleave the black hole open.
This repeated, preventing him from escaping.
Meanwhile, as the Emperor and Heavenly Emperor rushed towards Mo Qi, they were blocked by Wood魍, Water魍, and Fire魍.
At this time, Moon魍 was fighting Turtle Immortal alone, so they were freed up to intercept the Heavenly Emperor, their goal being to prevent him from being cured.
There was no need to pursue the Heavenly Emperor anymore; as long as he didn't receive the antidote, he would die eventually!
Wood魍, Water魍, and Fire魍 surrounded the Emperor and Heavenly Emperor, launching attacks. The Emperor unfurled the Earth Scroll, and with a flick of its pages, the entire air trembled. The pages flew out, covering the sky and striking Wood魍, Water魍, and Fire魍.
The three raised their hands, and a triangular banner appeared in the air. Each held a corner, unfurling it in the air. Black energy surged from the banner, meeting the pages of the Earth Scroll.
The black mist swept away the radiance emanating from the pages, yet the pages remained motionless, still pressing down on the three.
The three felt the power of mountains pressing down on them.
Greatly alarmed, the three formed hand seals and channeled their full power into the banner. The black banner emitted endless black mist, roaring and surging like a tidal wave, holding back the pages and preventing them from descending.
At this moment, if the Emperor continued to exert his divine power and press his attack, the three might have been killed. But the Emperor could no longer deal with them. The Heavenly Emperor's eyes were closing fast; if he didn't take the antidote soon, he would surely die.
And at this time, Mo Qi was held back by Copper魍 and could not get through at all.
So he abandoned the three and headed towards Mo Qi with the Heavenly Emperor.
The three also did not give up. Once the pressure was gone, they immediately unleashed their divine abilities again, attacking the Emperor.
Leaving his back exposed to them was itself a dangerous act for the Emperor.
If left unchecked, he would undoubtedly be smashed to pieces.
With no other choice, the Emperor turned around and once again raised the Earth Scroll, striking its pages towards the three魍.
Thus, the Emperor was essentially held back.
Mo Qi saw the gravity of the situation. If this continued, he would not be able to deliver the antidote to the Heavenly Emperor before he died.
He had to find a solution.
He thought of spatial magic.
So, the next moment, after cleaving a black hole, he immediately made two gestures in the air. A rift appeared in the air, and he leaped into the rift, his body disappearing with it.
Copper魍 was puzzled, how did he disappear so suddenly?
He was looking around everywhere for Mo Qi's figure, while Mo Qi used spatial magic to reach the Emperor's original position.
At this time, the Emperor, overly worried about the Heavenly Emperor, repelled the three and quickly unfolded his body towards Mo Qi's original location. Suddenly, he found Mo Qi missing again, and was so anxious he almost cried.
At this moment, Mo Qi transmitted a message to him, "Emperor, don't move, I'll bring it to you immediately."
The Emperor acknowledged and once again struck the pages of the Earth Scroll towards the three魍.
The three魍 raised the black banner again. The three exerted their combined strength, each using different divine abilities. Water, fire, and wood rotated and surged in the air. This time, they actually knocked the pages of the Earth Scroll, causing them to spin and retreat.
The Emperor struggled to maintain his stance, but found himself unable to break free. At this moment, he could only place his hope on Mo Qi successfully arriving.
Don't get lost, don't get lost!
Fortunately, Mo Qi did not disappoint him. In a blink of an eye, Mo Qi squeezed out of the air and, without any hesitation, quickly fed the Heavenly Emperor an antidote.
The Heavenly Emperor took the antidote and recovered in moments. Seeing the Emperor and the three魍 in a stalemate, he waved the Creation Divine Staff in his hand. A surge of light and energy erupted, knocking the three to the ground.
Having narrowly escaped death, the Heavenly Emperor was in high spirits. He patted Mo Qi on the shoulder, "Young man, you're good, very good. Would you like to be my adopted son?"
Adopted son?
This was too sudden!
Mo Qi shook his head, "No."
"You..." The Heavenly Emperor was stunned that Mo Qi would refuse so outright.
The Emperor laughed heartily, "Always taking adopted sons, finally hit a wall, haven't you?"
To ease the awkwardness, Mo Qi immediately changed the subject, "I think it's best for us to leave here first."
The Heavenly Emperor nodded, "Indeed. Well, let's break out first. Do you have any ideas? I can't kill all these enemies."
Mo Qi's face fell. "I went to all this trouble hoping to borrow your strength, but it seems I still have to rely on myself."
The Heavenly Emperor chuckled, "Lean on mountains and they fall, lean on people and they run, rely on yourself and you'll eat your fill."
Mo Qi sighed, then glared at him, "Don't think I really have no way."
As he spoke, Mo Qi threw dozens of Thunder Pills into the air and simultaneously raised the Creation Divine Leaf, striking the Thunder Pills forcefully.
The power of the Thunder Pills was somewhat insufficient for the cultivation levels of the people in this world.
Mo Qi had improved their power through countless modifications, but it was still not enough to deal with these people. It might only injure their skin, not their core.
But after obtaining the Creation Divine Leaf, Mo Qi had a sudden thought: what would happen if he used the divine power of the Creation Divine Leaf to strike these Thunder Pills?
He waited to see.
The Heavenly Emperor and the Emperor also waited!
The next moment, the Thunder Pills fell into the crowd. With a series of booming explosions, huge mushroom clouds rose into the air. The ground was instantly enveloped in black mist, with sand and stones flying, smoke churning, and countless figures of the魍 swirling within the black mist, some intact, some not.
All combat froze at that moment. Everyone's eyes widened in astonishment as they watched the smoke. The smoke churned for a long time before slowly dissipating, revealing a large cleared area on the ground.
The previously massive魍 army had lost more than half of its numbers.
Of course, with the explosion of the Thunder Pills, some of Mo Qi's mechanical beasts were also destroyed.
He felt a pang of heartache!
The Heavenly Emperor was gratified, nodding repeatedly, "Good, good."
He still had some Thunder Pills, but if he were to use them again, he would have to consider his own people!
Mo Qi made a gesture, and the mechanical beasts were gradually recalled.
At this time, the Four Little Ones, who were locked in a fierce battle with Gold魍, began to show signs of defeat. Although they were difficult to deal with, the disparity in strength was significant.
As long as Gold魍 calmed down and found a way to break their formations, the Four Little Ones would be in great distress.
Mo Qi issued an urgent summons, and they retreated. Gold魍 did not pursue; he had been fighting the four demonic beasts for so long without winning, and felt quite bored.
He was now contemplating whom to deal with next.
Qi Ao Lai and the others were still fighting the魍 from afar, surrounded and in grave danger.
Mo Qi threw a few more Thunder Pills, simultaneously raising the Creation Divine Leaf. The Creation Divine Leaf shook, striking the Thunder Pills and sending them into the crowd. Several more mushroom clouds rose, and they did not dissipate for a long time.
In the swirling black mist, a large number of魍 fell.
Qi Ao Lai and the others were also affected, suffering minor injuries and being knocked to the ground.
However, they were at the edge of the explosion, so their injuries were relatively light, and they quickly got back up.
At this point, Mo Qi had used up all the Thunder Pills and could no longer use this tactic. He leaped forward, arriving beside Qi Ao Lai and the others, fighting alongside them.
At this moment, the Heavenly Emperor glanced at Moon魍, who was fighting Turtle Immortal, and said coldly, "It's time for me to exert myself."
He then turned to the Emperor and said, "You go deal with Gold魍, and I'll deal with Moon魍. As long as these two are killed, Sun魍 will appear. Then we kill Sun魍, and all the魍 will retreat. As for this barrier, it doesn't matter whether we get out or not."
The Emperor: "..."
After speaking, the Heavenly Emperor leaped into the air, heading towards the higher reaches of the sky, where Turtle Immortal and Moon魍 were locked in a fierce battle.
Moon魍's five-colored petals spun in the air like a windmill. With each rotation, every petal swept like a broom, and Moon Elder met them with his staff, being pushed back repeatedly. The petals, gaining momentum, continued to spin forward.
Seeing Turtle Immortal retreating steadily, seemingly on the verge of death.
At this moment, a flash of movement occurred, and the Heavenly Emperor blocked in front of Turtle Immortal. He swung the Creation Divine Staff, and a fierce wind and surging waves erupted, breaking off half the petals of the illusory flower, sending the entire flower image flying back.
The Heavenly Emperor pressed his advantage, continuing to swing the Creation Divine Staff at the remaining petals.
With another earth-shattering roar, the flower image lost another petal.
Blood trickled from Moon魍's mouth. He formed hand seals, channeling spiritual power, and continued to hold on, preventing the flower image from being destroyed.
He firmly believed that as long as he held on until Sun魍 arrived, their side would win.
Therefore, he felt that even if he sacrificed his own life, he had to hold on until Sun魍 arrived.
You are arrogant, so let you be arrogant for a while!
Soon, you will all be annihilated.
However, at this moment, he heard Sun魍's transmission in his ear, "Retreat with everyone! We cannot kill the Heavenly Emperor today."
Moon魍 was unwilling, but had no choice but to obey.
