Xin Li's face was extremely ugly. That slash just now was actually blocked by this sinister girl.
This was impossible!
His strength had clearly reached the Saint Lord level, so how could this woman in front of him have blocked that move?
Suddenly, Xin Li's eyes narrowed.
He discovered that Mu Qingqing was somewhat different from before. Not only had her aura strengthened considerably, but her flowing, smooth cyan hair had even turned a deep crimson, as if stained by blood.
Although she didn't exude the same bloody malevolent energy as before, she emanated a dangerous aura that made one's heart palpitate.
This was the change brought about by the ninth level of the Asura Battle Technique.
Mu Qingqing knew that before, her strength could at most allow her to defeat a Three-star Great Emperor realm cultivator by a level, but defeating a Four-star Great Emperor was still not very realistic.
The only way was to further increase her combat power.
Therefore, Mu Qingqing, utilizing the powerful comprehension brought about by her Star Wheel Eyes, tried her utmost to break through to the ninth level of the Asura Battle Technique.
Although she had used chains to forcefully block several of Xin Li's attacks, fortunately, at the last moment, she successfully cultivated the Asura Battle Technique to its perfected state.
Xin Li's face was grim.
Why was it that despite using all sorts of methods, he couldn't eliminate this damned woman in front of him!
In a fit of rage, Xin Li attacked again. The demonic blade, Cold Night, was continuously swung, and streaks of blood-red blade energy cut through space, heading straight for Mu Qingqing.
Facing Xin Li's storm-like onslaught, Mu Qingqing fully activated the Asura Battle Technique.
The perfected Asura Battle Technique rapidly increased Mu Qingqing's true essence realm to Three-star Great Emperor.
Combined with the Golden Scale Art, Mu Qingqing finally had the strength to contend with a Saint Lord head-on.
Mu Qingqing formed a hand seal with her left hand, and a technique called the Eternal Samsara Diagram erupted from her palm, charging towards Xin Li.
The Eternal Samsara Diagram gradually expanded, and the blood-red blade energy that struck it could only cause slight ripples.
It was then completely absorbed by the Eternal Samsara Diagram.
Upon seeing the Eternal Samsara Diagram, Xin Li's expression changed drastically.
This peculiar move again.
Xin Li had suffered a loss from this move at the hands of Xin Ci before, and he would not make the same mistake again.
Thus, Xin Li's eyes glowed red, and the entire Xin Family Fortress was enveloped in a blood-red world, with countless blades swirling and dancing around.
This was the minor world created by Xin Li.
Blood Slaughter Blade Prison!
But strangely, the Eternal Samsara Diagram did not stop. Xin Li was extremely shocked and immediately generated countless Blood Slaughter Swords to block the Eternal Samsara Diagram.
At the same time, he stared at Mu Qingqing, his face filled with horror, and said, "How is this possible?! My Blood Slaughter Blade Prison clearly isolates your moves from the outside world. How can your peculiar Samsara Diagram still appear here?!"
Xin Li looked incredulous.
Mu Qingqing, on the other hand, curled her lips into a cold smile and said indifferently, "Nothing is impossible, because you were already in my Mind Realm."
Upon hearing this, Xin Li's eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
He then realized that outside his Blood Slaughter Blade Prison, there was another small world nested within.
This small world must belong to Mu Qingqing.
This made it even more difficult for him to accept.
A minor world created by a Two-star Great Emperor was actually more powerful than his Blood Slaughter Blade Prison!
"It's time to end this," Mu Qingqing said coldly.
Following that, Mu Qingqing formed hand seals with both hands, her Star Wheel Eyes
shining with dazzling brilliance.
Mind Realm, Great Transformation of Myriad Forms!
As long as they were within her Mind Realm, Mu Qingqing was the master.
Xin Li's Blood Slaughter Blade Prison turned to dust and dissipated at this moment, and the countless Blood Slaughter Blades vanished with it.
Immediately after, the Eternal Samsara Diagram transformed into thousands upon thousands of dazzling stars.
They surrounded Xin Li from all directions with no dead angles.
Xin Li knew the situation was dire and tried to forcefully tear open the spatial barrier of the minor world to escape.
But several chains shot out from the void, striking directly at him and binding him tightly.
"Stop! Stop!"
Xin Li completely panicked and roared, trying to stop Mu Qingqing.
But Mu Qingqing ignored him. As her palms met, the thousands upon thousands of brilliant stars lit up simultaneously and smashed towards Xin Li.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Each star inflicted terrifying damage on Xin Li.
His body began to crack under the continuous bombardment, nearing collapse, and blood flowed profusely.
"Ah!"
Xin Li let out a heart-wrenching scream.
After all the stars had fallen, Mu Qingqing, due to excessive consumption of true essence, had her Mind Realm forcibly dispelled.
She and Xin Li both returned to Xin Family Fortress.
Everyone present looked surprised when they saw Mu Qingqing and Xin Li reappear.
Xin Li, who was at the Saint Lord level, had actually been defeated by Mu Qingqing.
After the shock, their expressions soon turned to joy.
Xin Li's defeat meant they were completely saved!
Ming Huang, Han Jue, and Dao Yuanming expressed their amazement at the outcome of the battle.
"That little girl is truly a monster, defeating even a Four-star Great Emperor!"
"It seems we three were saved by that little girl."
Dao Yuanming then laughed proudly, "Of course, how could a disciple from my Four Symbols Academy be ordinary! Cough cough!"
In his excitement, Dao Yuanming forgot that his injuries had not yet healed, and he coughed a few times in pain.
Ming Huang Shen Wei rolled his eyes at him and said calmly, "Don't get too carried away when your injuries haven't recovered."
Mu Qingqing, who had dispelled her Mind Realm, landed on the ground, looking somewhat weak.
Saint Lord level cultivators were truly difficult to deal with. She had to fight with all her might just to barely defeat Xin Li.
Xin Li, on the other hand, fell heavily to the ground, covered in blood. Under the continuous bombardment of countless stars, he had lost an arm and his right foot, his face was a bloody mess, and he looked utterly miserable.
However, Xin Li was not completely dead. His demonized body was truly difficult to destroy, and a final blow was needed.
A ball of deep crimson flame appeared in Mu Qingqing's palm and shot towards Xin Li.
She was currently too exhausted to use any other techniques and could only use the Undying Phoenix Flame to burn away Xin Li's demonized body.
Just then, Xin Li, who had been lying on the ground like a corpse, suddenly got up. He looked at Mu Qingqing, who was approaching him, and a sinister, sneering smile appeared on his face.
Mu Qingqing was somewhat surprised, but she did not stop. This was the best opportunity to finish off Xin Li.
Who knew that Xin Li's next words made her abruptly stop.
"If you kill me, you'll never see Xin Yun again in this lifetime!"
Upon hearing Xin Li's words, Mu Qingqing was suddenly startled. In her consciousness space, Xin Ci's heart skipped a beat.
Xin Yun! Xin Ci's paternal aunt!
She was supposed to be with the Su family in Dongzhou, wasn't she?
Could it be that this old bastard Xin Li had brought Xin Yun back to the Xin family!
Seeing Mu Qingqing stop, Xin Li coughed up a few mouthfuls of thick blood and then laughed maniacally, "Hahaha! Xin Ci, that brat should be able to hear me. I've already imprisoned Xin Yun in a place you would never expect! If I die, Xin Yun will be buried with me! Hahahaha..."
Even though he had lost, Xin Li still wanted to make Xin Ci pay. The thought of Xin Ci and Mu Qingqing being unable to kill him made Xin Li laugh even more wildly.
