"Brother Mo Xi, now that I have gathered the Five Elements Spirit Pearls and gained the power of the Five Elements, my purification power has also been sublimated. If I face the demons in the future, I should be able to deal with them easily, right?" Mu Li asked as they walked on the bustling streets and looked at the fireworks of the world.
"Well, don't be afraid, I'm here!" Mo Xi said affirmatively.
"Yeah, I feel relieved knowing that Brother Moxi is here! Then let's go back to the sea area quickly and solve the problems in the sea area as soon as possible so that we can go home early! I miss my parents and brothers so much!" Mu Li couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, then let's go straight back to the Crystal Palace!" said Mo Xi.
"good."
The two found a body of water nearby, looked around, and after making sure there was no one nearby, they jumped directly into the water and sank to the bottom in an instant.
Mu Li took out the Star Mirror and injected spiritual power into it. The Star Mirror burst out with a bright light, covering the two of them. The next second, they appeared near the Crystal Palace.
"Huh? Weird!" Mu Li frowned, looking around the Crystal Palace. The Crystal Palace, once bustling with activity, was now eerily quiet; even the patrolling soldiers were nowhere to be seen.
"Brother Moxi, this is not right."
Mo Xi also looked alert. He held Mu Li's hand and said, "Follow me closely."
They approached the gate of the Crystal Palace cautiously, and just as they were about to push it open, the door slowly opened, and a pungent fishy smell filled the air.
Suddenly, a group of demons rushed out, led by a tall demon general. "Haha, you're finally back," the demon general laughed wildly.
It turned out that the demons took advantage of their absence to sneak into the Crystal Palace, set a trap, and captured the mermaid emperor and queen to threaten them.
Mu Li clenched her fists in anger: "What have you done to my family?"
The demon general sneered: "As long as you hand over the Five Elements Spirit Pearl obediently, perhaps you can spare their lives."
"What Five Elements Spirit Pearl? I don't have it!" Mu Li said.
"Don't deny it! We have received accurate information that you two went to look for the Five Elements Spirit Pearl. It took you more than half a year to come back. I guess you must have found it, right? Hand it over quickly!" The demon general said affirmatively.
Mo Xi stood in front of Mu Li and said, "Don't even think about it. We won't surrender to you."
The two sides are on the verge of a battle.
"If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished! If you don't hand over the Five Elements Spirit Pearl today, the mermaid tribe will no longer exist!" said the demon general angrily.
"What a big tone! Then give it a try!" Mu Li said coldly!
As Mu Li spoke, a spiritual light flashed in her hands. She quickly formed seals, gathering the power of the five elements into a powerful force to attack the demon general.
The demon general hadn't expected Mu Li's attack to be so swift and powerful, and he quickly raised his magic knife to block it. However, the power of the Five Elements was no match for him, and the demon general was knocked back several steps.
Mo Xi was also not idle. He drew the sword from his waist, and with a blue light on the sword, he attacked the demon soldiers behind the demon general. For a moment, the shouts of killing shook the sky.
After the demon general regained his composure, he became enraged and chanted an evil spell. His demonic energy surged, and he summoned a swarm of demonic figures to charge at Mu Li. Mu Li remained calm, channeling her purifying power, and the demonic figures dissipated as they approached her.
Just as the two sides were fighting fiercely, a melodious conch sound suddenly came from the Crystal Palace.
Upon hearing this voice, the demon general's face changed. It turned out that the imprisoned mermaid emperor had secretly cast a spell to awaken the guardian beast sleeping deep in the sea.
The divine beast burst out of the water, its massive body stirring up a monstrous wave. It opened its maw and spewed out a beam of white light. Wherever the beam reached, the demons were frozen in place, unable to move.
Mu Li took the opportunity to rush into the Crystal Palace and rescue her family. In the end, under the deterrence of the divine beast, the remaining demons fled in disgrace, and the Crystal Palace returned to its former vitality.
"Father, Mother, you have suffered! It's all my fault that I came back too late!" Mu Li said self-reproachfully as she looked at her parents.
"Silly child, this is not your fault. The demons are just too cunning." The Mermaid Queen gently stroked Mu Li's hair.
Mo Xi stood by and smiled, feeling relieved to see the family reunited.
However, at this moment, dark clouds gathered again on the distant sea level. Everyone in the Crystal Palace felt that the sky had suddenly darkened, and hurried out to check!
Looking around, I saw a black vortex forming.
"Oh no, the demons won't give up. They must be going back to get reinforcements." Mo Xi's face was solemn.
Mu Li clenched her fists tightly. "No matter how many people come, I will protect everyone."
"This time it's not just ordinary demons." A gloomy voice came.
A gigantic three-headed demonic dragon emerged from the whirlpool.
"This is one of the sacred beasts of our demon clan. You will all die today." The demon dragon spoke in human language.
Mu Li took a deep breath, formed seals with her hands, and the power of the five elements shone throughout her body. Mo Xi also drew his sword and prepared to fight.
The divine beast felt threatened and roared again. The two sides confronted each other, and a more brutal battle was about to break out.
Just as the two sides were at a stalemate, Mu Li suddenly felt a stirring in her heart, as if a voice was guiding her. She closed her eyes, and an ancient formation emerged in her mind.
Mu Li opened her eyes and looked at Mo Xi, "Brother Mo Xi, I have an idea." After that, she flew into the air and began to arrange the formation with herself as the center.
Mo Xi understood her intention and tried his best to resist the attack of the three-headed magic dragon to buy time for Mu Li.
Mu Li's forehead was covered with sweat, and she gritted her teeth to speed up the formation. When the formation was about to take shape, the three-headed demon dragon sensed the danger and abandoned Mo Xi to pounce on Mu Li.
At the critical moment, the divine beast leaped up and blocked the magic dragon with its huge body.
