As the last meridian point flickered, a complete hidden vein opened up, and spiritual energy flowed through it, forming a perfect cycle. Mu Hanyan knew that to persist any longer would be suffering in vain. In fact, she had already suffered in vain for quite some time. Now, it was time to break through this realm.
Spiritual power flowed through her body, and Mu Hanyan's expression no longer showed the pain she had before. She looked so calm and confident.
"Eight Wastelands, the Gods fall!" Mu Hanyan shouted again.
A fire spear shot out from the sword, and the green and red flames burned fiercely, with a faint sense of dragon soaring. The deafening whistling sound was also like the roar of a dragon.
At the moment when the fire spear pierced the field, the swirling rune light and shadow suddenly stopped, and the entire world, time and space also stopped at this moment.
But this stillness was only for a moment. Then, the runes suddenly exploded, transforming into dreamlike points of light. The domain shattered, and the entire earth trembled violently. The towering temple behind him also trembled violently, and a loud roar echoed from within. Any experienced priest would be familiar with such a sound. This was clearly the sound of the formation within the temple shattering.
However, how could the formation within the temple be damaged even though the domain had clearly been breached? They soon figured out what was happening. Clearly, even if Long Aoli's strength had reached the level of a Divine Heart Priest, he couldn't unleash this Wind and Thunder Domain. So, he was actually borrowing the power of the temple's formation. After all, he was the head priest of the Tianyang Temple, and only he had such an opportunity.
He was so arrogant that he said he would let Mu Hanyan have three moves, but he was forced to fight back after the first move. As the chief priest, he broke his promise, which was despised by everyone. In a fit of rage, he even used the temple's formation to try to kill Mu Hanyan. This despicable behavior could not be tolerated by others, even the chief priests who had shared the same hatred with him could not stand it.
Everyone looked at Long Aoli with disdain and anger, but unfortunately, this time Long Aoli still ignored their gazes, because the moment the domain was broken, he was backlashed, spitting out a mouthful of blood and fainting on the ground. Looking at his gray face, it was obvious that he was seriously injured.
Logically speaking, even if his domain was breached and backlashed, at most his spiritual consciousness would be affected, and he shouldn't have suffered such injuries. But after all, he was borrowing the power of the temple's formation, and the powerful energy released when the formation was broken was simply beyond his ability to withstand. This was what he deserved.
After a long while, the ground finally stopped shaking, and the temple in the back returned to calm. Everyone on and off the stage finally came to their senses, looking at Mu Hanyan with shock in their eyes.
When everyone wanted to understand the secret of Long Aoli's domain, they were angry at first, but then they remembered another problem. Mu Hanyan actually broke through the domain cast by the dignified Divine Heart Priest with the help of the temple formation. How powerful must her strength be?
Although no one can be sure of Mu Hanyan's cultivation level, everyone can be sure that she has definitely reached the level of a Divine Heart Priest, and is definitely not as simple as a beginner Divine Heart Priest!
No wonder she challenged Long Aoli immediately after defeating Long Wucuo. She really had the confidence to do so.
The priests from various temples who had previously automatically admitted defeat and jumped off the competition stage, hiding without a trace, also returned to the crowd again, but there was no longer any shame on their faces, but instead a sense of complacency.
See? You used to think we were cowardly and undignified, but now you know how wise and intelligent we are. Even Long Aoli, who resorted to such despicable tactics, was no match for Mu Hanyan. Wouldn't we be courting death if we went up there? That's called wisdom, understand?
To be honest, Mu Hanyan's battle had cleared their names, at least they no longer had to live in fear. Looking at Mu Hanyan standing proudly and calmly on the stage, they no longer felt any hatred, but instead were filled with gratitude.
Several high priests of the Tianyang Temple finally woke up from their dreams and went on stage to carry the unconscious Long Aoli away. From beginning to end, they all looked ashamed and did not even have the courage to look up at Mu Hanyan.
After the two matches, Long Aoli and Long Wucuo, father and son, were both utterly livid. Long Aoli's despicable behavior was despised by everyone, and even the priests of the Tianyang Temple were humiliated. Remembering Long Wucuo's initial provocations against Mu Hanyan and his humiliation of the Huayu Temple, they felt a deep sense of irony.
Just based on other people's strength, do you have the qualifications to humiliate them? You are simply overestimating yourself. You and your son deserve this fate!
Long Aoli was carried off the stage, and Chu Yanghe and others returned to their seats. Only Mu Hanyan was left on the stage.
"Is there any chief priest who wants to challenge me?" Mu Hanyan's eyes swept across the faces of the chief priests.
Since she was already so arrogant, she might as well continue to be so arrogant. With her strength advancing to the level of Divine Heart Priest, she had enough confidence to perform the Eight Desolate Divine Meteorites twice more, and she had the capital to be arrogant.
The officiants looked at each other, but no one responded.
What a joke! What kind of strength is Long Aoli? What kind of strength are they? Long Aoli can use the temple formation to cast a domain, can they? Even Long Aoli was defeated miserably by Mu Hanyan. Aren't they courting death by going up there?
By now, they also felt the helplessness in the hearts of those priests who had previously voluntarily admitted defeat. Faced with Mu Hanyan's arrogance, they did not even have the courage to look at her, let alone respond.
"No? Well, I'll choose it myself." Mu Hanyan said with a smile.
After consecutively challenging twelve powerful priests from various halls, Mu Hanyan unexpectedly challenged all the chief priests one by one! However, this time, no one was surprised, because Mu Hanyan had already proved to everyone with practical actions that she had such strength and qualifications.
No one even felt the slightest bit of disgust at Mu Hanyan's arrogance. Arrogance without strength is called arrogance, while arrogance with strength is called confidence. Far from being disgusted, many young priests actually admired Mu Hanyan even more, excited and inspired. If it weren't for the taciturn old men on the stage who were the head priests of their respective families, I'm afraid some people would have already cheered for Mu Hanyan.
"Chief Priest Fan, why don't you come first?" Mu Hanyan's gaze stayed on Qingning Chief Priest Fan Chengli.
Fan Chengli suddenly raised his head and looked at Mu Hanyan with a look of inexplicable sadness.
If the strength is similar, then just lose, it's no big deal. Even if Mu Hanyan didn't appear, he would still lose against Long Aoli. But the problem is, he has witnessed the power of Mu Hanyan's magic with his own eyes, and the end of Long Aoli and Long Wucuo is right in front of him. Fighting with Mu Hanyan is not as simple as losing, it is very likely that he will even lose his life.
