Within the battle scene.
The dust and smoke have gradually dissipated.
Mu Xun's eyes were clear as he gazed at the completely collapsed rock-cracked canyon. The thunder sword in his hand hummed and flashed with blue electric light.
He knew, of course, that Linnaeus was not dead, otherwise the illusion would have vanished long ago.
"Come out, there's no point in hiding anymore."
Mu Xun said calmly, "The fact that you haven't left this battle scene means that you are still conscious. Pretending to be dead here won't work."
There was a few seconds of silence.
Then, with a "whoosh!" sound, a faint white light shot into the sky from the mountain piled with rocks!
"Silver Moon Slash!"
A huge rock was instantly cleaved in two by a white light.
Immediately, Lin Nai's figure leaped out from below with a "whoosh" and landed not far in front of Mu Xun.
"What a pity," Lin Nai said. "If this were real life, maybe I could have played dead and tricked you."
Mu Xun said, "Even in reality, I will not let my guard down, because I know that the life force of the apostles will not die so easily."
Linna: "Hmm..."
"Moreover, it's my habit to assume someone is still alive unless I see their corpse." Mu Xun paused, then slowly added, "Although I don't actually want to see your corpse."
"Oh?" Linna raised an eyebrow. "Why is that?"
“You are one of the most formidable opponents I’ve encountered in recent years,” Mu Xun said. “I don’t want you to die like this.”
Lin Nai: "...Something sounds a bit strange to me."
Mu Xun: "?"
"Forget it." Lin Nai held the white night upside down in front of him. "Although, I am in a hurry and don't have time to waste with you any longer, so let's finish this quickly."
With that, Linna pressed his hands together in a clapping motion: "Summoning of the Dead—Mist God, Gaiying!"
Soon, the shadowy figure of an old man who looked like he was about to die appeared behind him.
Mu Xun's eyes flickered: "This is..."
Lin Nai's body surged with divine power: "Mist God's Divine Power - Black Mist!"
The black mist emerged from behind Linnaeus and surged outwards in all directions, quickly engulfing everything around it!
When Mu Xun saw the black mist, his keen intuition immediately told him that something was wrong with it. The black mist seemed to be more than just gas; it also had a certain solidity.
Moreover, this feeling... is divine power... but it doesn't seem to be the power of the White Death God? It seems to be the power of other gods?
Mu Xun no longer hesitated and swung the Thunder Sword in his hand.
"Divine Art - Thunder Shadow Sky Rift Stream!"
A long blue streak of light, carrying the power of lightning, instantly ripped through the black mist, splitting it in two!
Lin Nai's eyes flickered. She hadn't expected that Mu Xun's move could even cut through the black mist of the Mist God!
But it was all for naught.
Although the black mist was instantly sliced open by the stream of light, creating a long gap, it quickly merged back together.
It's like cutting water in half; it makes absolutely no sense.
Mu Xun thought to himself, 'Even the Heavenly Rift Stream Light can't completely pierce through this black mist...'
Seeing this, Mu Xun knew that he could not withstand the black mist, so he immediately used the Ghost Valley Steps to retreat and escape the battlefield.
"Trying to leave?" Lin Nai narrowed his eyes, formed a hand seal, and controlled the black mist to surround Mu Xun from behind.
Mu Xun was quickly surrounded by the black mist, which enveloped him from all sides, leaving him nowhere to retreat.
"Divine Spell - Lightning Shield!"
The flowing high-voltage lightning formed a light shield, creating an insulating barrier around Mu Xun and completely keeping the black mist out.
This is the move Mu Xun used when dealing with Bai Liao.
The two divine forces, black mist and lightning, clashed, barely maintaining a stalemate.
Lin Nai looked at Mu Xun, who was surrounded by black mist and unable to escape: "Now you have no way out. What do you plan to do?"
Mu Xun stood in the middle of the lightning shield and said calmly, "I'm not in a hurry."
"Our stalemate is a mutual drain on divine power, but I am not at a disadvantage in this protracted war of attrition."
“My level is 6.9, while yours is 2.5. In terms of divine power points alone, I am definitely higher than you. If this continues, what tricks will you have left when your divine power is exhausted?”
Lin Nai thought to herself, "It seems that Mu Xun's thinking is quite clear."
Indeed, in this stalemate where they both deplete each other's divine power, he is not at an advantage.
Although the Black Mist uses the power of the Mist God, using the summoning of the dead to awaken the god and maintain the Mist God's power in the real world requires consuming the power of the White Death God.
Lin Nai opened the system to scan Mu Xun's attributes.
Name: Mu Xun
[Life]: 791/900
[Stamina]: 615/905
[Soul Power]: 3311/4200
[Divine Power]: 30/55
Linnaeus: "..."
There are still 30 points of divine power left...
Moreover, the values of each attribute are basically still at more than 3/4 of their peak state.
Lin Nai opened her attribute panel and took a look.
[Life]: 230/300
[Stamina]: 150/300
[Soul Power]: 909/2100
[Divine Power]: 5/15
Only 5 points of divine power remain.
The level difference is too great, and a prolonged war of attrition will make his disadvantages more and more obvious.
The remaining 5 points of divine power must be used carefully.
