Just then, a crisp cracking sound rang out, and the next second, a huge crack began to spread from the center of the forbidden mountain gate, engulfing the entire mountain gate. Then, from that crack, strange creatures began to rush out in a hurry.
"Run! He's a madman!"
"Damn it, I knew I shouldn't have entered the forbidden area this time. What kind of monsters were those? They were absolutely insane!"
"What exactly is that thing? Has a monster escaped from the depths of the forbidden area?"
"Supreme, truly supreme!"
"But have you ever seen a Supreme Being eat her own kind? Look at the way she eats monsters, she eats everything with gusto, and she doesn't have any dietary restrictions. She even eats them in different ways. She has several ways of eating just brains. It's terrifying, so terrifying!"
As these escaped monsters ran, they shouted, and unsurprisingly, all their words were overheard by the other monsters waiting outside.
Wh...what is that?
The monster that eats strange things is that alien race that broke through to the highest level. It even studied how to eat brains and came up with several different ways.
The ghosts looked at each other, then involuntarily glanced at the mountain ghost that was now just a skeleton not far away.
In this light, the way this mountain monster died seems to have been relatively easy.
"As expected, he's not one of us; he's a freak!"
"Gentlemen, this is a monster that eats ghosts. You may be able to escape, but what about your descendants? What about your family?" Hearing this, Mu Yunli was overjoyed.
I initially thought these guys wouldn't go all out, but now it seems that with this news, all it takes is a gentle push to get their hands on me...
Um?
Just as Mu Yun was trying to persuade them with reason and emotion, and was using the moral high ground to 'force' the powerful monsters from the Nine Stars to become his henchmen, a ghostly figure screamed and flew backward through the crack in the mountain gate, crashing through a grove of trees and retreating more than ten meters before finally coming to a stop.
"Rui'er?!"
Mu Yunli's eyes widened in horror as he stared at Mu Yunrui, who had been sent flying. He was furious and rushed to Mu Yunrui's side, who was lying on the ground. Looking at his upper body, which was almost completely destroyed, he didn't know where to help him up.
Seeing this, several strange creatures from the Nine Stars also flew over. Looking at Mu Yunrui lying on the ground, who was likely on the verge of death and about to breathe his last, a hint of surprise appeared on their faces.
Given this situation, any shrewd person would know that it was most likely done by the one inside who had just broken through to the highest level, and that he was the one the Holy City ordered to kill, and that he was a person!
They thought they were in dire straits and were prepared to fight to the death, but Mu Yunrui was beaten out and seriously injured. The Mu Yun family can't just sit back and reap the benefits, can they?
"Oh my, isn't this Young Master Mu Yun? I've heard that Young Master Mu Yun is exceptionally talented, with extraordinary abilities since childhood. He's already a powerful expert in the eight-star realm at a young age. We all thought that Young Master Mu Yun would be the one to break through to the highest level when we entered the forbidden area, but we didn't expect..."
"It's a pity that such a talented person is envied by heaven. But Third Master Mu Yun, don't worry. My family has a secret method that might be able to save Young Master Mu Yun. Although his talent is gone, he'll still be alive. Being able to save his life is already a great thing!"
Several powerful figures from the Nine Stars Upper Realm were exchanging words, seemingly concerned about Young Master Mu Yun's safety. However, upon closer inspection, their words were full of sarcasm and attempts to sow discord; none of them had any good intentions!
"Enough, shut up!"
A terrifying aura swept out from Mu Yunli, silencing all the surrounding monsters.
This aura...
Nine stars to the peak?
No, that's not right, half a step to supreme power?!
When did the Third Master of Muyun also cross this threshold? Is it all because of the Holy Domain City Lord?
Remembering what Mu Yunli had said earlier, the several peak-level Nine Stars experts fell silent, took a few steps back, and dared not utter another word of provocation.
"You dare harm my nephew in this forbidden area? Get out here...!"
Before he could utter the words "die," a dark, shadowy object shot out from the crack in the mountain gate at incredible speed and crashed directly into Mu Yunli.
Mu Yunli dodged to the side, only to see a dark, hard, tofu-like object roll to the ground, spin a few times, and land right in front of the object on Mu Yunrui's neck.
This, this is... a brain that's been roasted... no, it should be called a charred brain.
"What's all the noise about? Can't I even eat in peace?!"
"So annoying."
A cold, ethereal voice came from the crack in the forbidden mountain gate. Upon hearing this, the monsters that had run out trembled. Then, as if they had thought of some terrifying being, they ignored Mu Yunli's oppressive aura and screamed as they ran away, fearing that they would suffer the same fate as the monsters inside.
As Su Luo walked out, she elegantly licked her bloodied fingertips, then frowned in disgust.
"It tastes awful."
"The aura of those invaders."
As he spoke, Su Luo looked up at Mu Yunli, who had risen into the air and was standing in mid-air, and a look of disgust appeared in his eyes.
"They really are from the same family; they smell and taste equally awful."
These words were vague and ambiguous, but it was clear that they were criticizing Mu Yunli.
"You, you!"
This person seemed to know the source of his power. Mu Yunli frowned, his eyes filled with killing intent as he looked at Su Luo. "Mere humans, nothing but ants, yet they dare to insult this power...!"
Before Mu Yunli could finish speaking, a sky full of stars appeared before him. They moved so fast that he couldn't even see what they were. Then the stars spun around, and he seemed to hear the sound of a copper bell ringing. Then a flame emerged from inside his body, spreading out and instantly burning him.
"This, this is..."
Before he could even cry out, [Ice and Fire Love Song] instantly vaporized Mu Yunli, leaving only an eyeball-like object emerging from his body, attempting to escape. Before it could even move, the sun, moon, and stars before him spun again, the copper bell shook, and the flames rapidly turned into ice lotuses, instantly freezing the eyeball.
With a flick of his wrist, Su Luo hoisted the oil-paper umbrella onto his shoulder, then reached out and pinched the frozen, terrified eyeball. After a moment's thought, he put it in his mouth with a hint of disgust and began to chew it with a crunching sound.
Ugh, this is really awful.
...
The entire room fell silent.
Dead silence!
No one dared to speak, and they even forgot to move, leaving only the sound of Su Luo eating echoing in the sky.
Instant, instant kill? !
In a single exchange, she instantly killed a peak expert who was half a step into the Supreme Realm. The opponent didn't even have the power to fight back. Even though she had broken through to the Supreme Realm, this was still too exaggerated!
Mu Yunli had at least reached the highest threshold, which was fundamentally different from the peak of the nine-star realm. They were all being sent to their deaths like this, and the other nine-star peak-level monsters were all glad that it wasn't them who had just made the move!
Is this kind of power really something a human being could possess?
