As they looked on in despair, the hazy palm shadow of the black-clad swordsman had already slammed heavily on Mu Hanyan's chest.

There was no loud bang, nor any muffled scream. The palm strike was like hitting the air, without making any sound at all.

A golden light shone, and a golden cloak appeared on Mu Hanyan's body. The palm shadow quickly melted away at the chest. The powerful energy in it turned into streaks of light, rippling around like water waves, without causing any harm to Mu Hanyan.

"A protective artifact!" The black-clothed swordsman's expression froze, and the cold blade of the Hanxiao Sword had already pierced into his heart.

A powerful energy rushed out and turned into countless dancing ice and snow. In an instant, it froze his heart and internal organs into ice chips, and then shattered them into pieces.

It turned out to be a protective artifact! Hua Yue and the others breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. It seemed that Mu Hanyan had another adventure in this trial and actually obtained the legendary defensive artifact.

However, the thought of the previous scene still left them with a lingering fear. Although she had a divine weapon to protect her, hadn't she considered what would happen if the defensive artifact couldn't withstand the black-clad swordsman's palm strike? This strike was clearly a life-or-death blow.

"Boom!" The last thunder finally fell, and the last seal was completely broken.

Unfortunately, the black-clad swordsman's heart meridian was broken and he could never regain his previous strength.

"Who are you?" The black-clothed swordsman looked at Mu Hanyan unwillingly.

He sealed his strength, traveled thousands of miles, and went through countless dangers to reach the Holy Court Continent. He was about to complete the mission, restore his strength and return to the temple, but in the end he failed and even lost his life in the Holy Court Continent. He was unwilling to accept this, really unwilling to accept this.

"Mu Hanyan," Mu Hanyan said kindly. After all, he was a master comparable to a sword master. To die in such an unclear manner was indeed a bit "cruel."

"Mu Hanyan, the dissolute good-for-nothing from Black Stone City?" The man in black looked at Mu Hanyan in shock.

"I'm sorry, it really is me, genuine." Mu Hanyan grinned awkwardly, not knowing whether she should feel proud that even a master from another continent had heard of her name.

"So it's you, so it's you. I won't accept this, I won't accept this." The black-clad swordsman murmured, throwing his head back and falling. He refused to close his eyes until his death.

"I've already told you who I am. What's there to be unwilling about? Why are you so ungrateful? Damn it, do you feel unwilling to be killed by a playboy like me? Playboys also have dignity. After all, I'm the best among playboys! What's there to be unwilling about, you idiot?" Mu Hanyan curled her lips in dissatisfaction. She wanted to kick this guy, but her legs went weak and she fell to the ground.

That single strike of sword had already drained all her energy, leaving her without the strength to even stand. If she hadn't been so desperate to see the other person die, Mu Hanyan would have collapsed long ago.

"Young Master." Hua Yue rushed over quickly.

"Young Master." Zirong threw Jiang Yuzhe in her hand and ran over.

"Ouch." Jiang Yuzhe fell heavily to the ground and let out a scream.

"I'm fine, I'm just exhausted and a little weak. Let's leave here first." Mu Hanyan smiled and indicated that she was fine.

Zirong quickly picked up Mu Hanyan by the waist and was about to leave the small temple.

"Oh no!" At this moment, Yue Ji cried out in surprise.

Although the black-clad swordsman was dead, the thunder and lightning in the sky did not disappear. One after another, thunder and lightning streaked across the night sky, making a heart-shaking noise.

The sealing barrier that Yue Ji had previously torn apart with the forbidden technique was cracked again by the bombardment of lightning and thunder.

A violent force of heaven and earth filled with destructive intent surged out from the crack, completely sealing off the area within a radius of several miles with the small temple as the center.

This is the power of heaven and earth from another continent, the continent of God.

The power of heaven and earth of the Holy Court Continent also surged in from all directions, as if to devour and eliminate the power that did not belong to the Holy Land Continent.

The two forces, originally governed by the same principle but now completely different, repelled each other and collided violently, forming a series of powerful storms like tsunamis and hurricanes. The most terrifying thing was that this storm was completely concentrated in an area of ​​several miles, and its power was even more terrifying and astonishing.

Being in the center of the storm, Mu Hanyan and the others were staggering from side to side, as weak and helpless as a boat in the wind and rain.

Fresh blood oozed out of Zirong and Jiang Yuzhe's bodies again. Although they clenched their teeth and did not make a sound, the bloodshot eyes showed that they were obviously in great pain.

Hua Yue's teeth were clenched, his face pale, and his entire body trembled. His father, Hua Guanyu, was a priest of the Divine Continent. His bloodline was naturally different from Mu Hanyan and the others, allowing him to withstand the power of the Divine Continent's heaven and earth. But now, when two completely different worlds collided, even he couldn't withstand the terrifying power.

"Quickly take back the forbidden technique." Mu Hanyan shouted to Yue Ji. If this continued, not only would Hua Yue and the others not be able to bear it, even she would be unable to hold on any longer.

"Since it's a forbidden technique, how can it be taken back?" Yue Ji said helplessly with a haggard face.

"What should we do then?" Mu Hanyan said anxiously.

"There is no other way. We can only wait for the heaven and earth of the Continent of Gods to dissipate on their own. Originally, with my strength, even if I used forbidden techniques to tear open the seal barrier, the power of heaven and earth released from the Continent of Gods would be extremely limited and would soon dissipate on its own. But with the addition of that person's forbidden techniques, the situation is completely different." Yue Ji glanced at Hua Yue, who was trembling all over, and said with a desolate face.

She didn't finish her words, but Mu Hanyan could guess. Yue Ji and the black-clad swordsman simultaneously unleashed their forbidden techniques to tear open the continent's barrier. The immense power of heaven and earth pouring in from the cracks in the seal was too immense, and, drawn by their forbidden techniques, concentrated within a radius of several miles. It would be difficult for the Holy Court Continent's spiritual energy to absorb and dissipate it in a short period of time. The small temple they were in was the core of the struggle between the two forces. With Hua Yue and the others' strength, they simply couldn't hold out until that point.

Thinking of this, Mu Hanyan suddenly had an idea in her mind.

"Back then, I followed my lord and mistress, and finally came to the Holy Court Continent from the Continent of Gods after going through untold hardships. Unfortunately, my lord was seriously injured and was assassinated. I wanted to raise you to adulthood, watch you get married and have children, and live up to the master's kindness in taking you in so many years, but I didn't expect that it would end up like this. Huayue, I'm sorry for you and my lord." Yue Ji looked at Huayue with lifeless eyes, and said in despair and guilt.

"Grandma." Hua Yue was choked with sobs and couldn't speak.

"Wait, don't give up. Practice your skills and hold on a little longer. I have a way." Mu Hanyan said to Hua Yue and the others.
