"Master, save me! I don't want to die." Mu Ziping regained consciousness and was horrified by the scene. Although he had considerable talent and strength, having lived in the capital for a long time and held in high regard by several elders, he had never experienced anything like this before. His heart nearly jumped out of his chest in fear.
"A forbidden technique to destroy the world?" Mu Hanyan shook her head secretly.
She had seen the forbidden techniques of Yue Ji and the Temple Sword Saint, and they were completely different from the current situation. At this moment, the terrifying power shrouding Black Stone City was not the power of heaven and earth, but clearly the power of the nine stars contained in the Destiny Star Disk.
Clearly, Zhao Yuanji wasn't using any forbidden technique to annihilate the world. Instead, he was using a secret method to unleash the terrifying power within his Destiny Star Disc all at once. He had only unleashed it to its fullest potential to produce such terrifying power. Furthermore, Mu Hanyan could sense that the Nine Heavens Star Power contained within Zhao Yuanji's Destiny Star Disc was completely different from Mu Tianlie's. It was filled with the aura of darkness and death, and was incredibly violent and ferocious.
Mu Hanyan tried to use the Tianxin technique to absorb and refine that power, but the power of the stars suddenly erupted, and it was so violent and ferocious that it completely exceeded the limit of her cultivation at that time. Even if she could absorb a little, it would be of no help at all.
No wonder Mu Hanyan always felt something strange when Zhao Yuanji took action before. Now she knows that his strength is mostly related to this Destiny Star Plate. Fortunately, he was unable to completely refine the power of the stars in it, otherwise, who knows how strong he would be.
But even so, the current situation is not optimistic.
Mu Ruian and Mu Hanfeng flew up at the same time, slashing towards Zhao Yuanji with their swords.
One is a fifth-level swordsman, and the other is only a first-level swordsman, but the long sword in his hand is the legendary Chixiao Divine Sword, and his actual combat power far exceeds that of masters of the same level.
The two swords came out at the same time, shining with energy, like two blue dragons soaring in the sky.
"Jie Chu Wu Fan Shi Bo Mao Lin..." Zhao Yuanji turned a blind eye and chanted the spell over and over again.
"Buzz..." The Destiny Star Plate in his hand made a buzzing sound, and was filled with murderous and bloodthirsty intent.
A dark red blood light suddenly burst out, carrying the breath of death and destruction, enveloping Mu Ruian and Mu Hanfeng, father and son.
Amidst the loud noise, the two were actually shocked and retreated repeatedly.
Without waiting to gain their balance, the two men roared like tigers and rushed forward again.
However, as Zhao Yuanji chanted, the terrifying power of the Nine Heavens Stars continued to erupt, and even the two of them could not break through the blood-red light pattern.
Mu Ruian and his son joined forces, but couldn't stop Zhao Yuanji? Everyone's face changed.
The Great Elder and others were about to step forward, but they stopped when they saw this scene. Even Mu Ruian and his son were powerless, so what could they do if they took action? It would only cause more trouble.
"Chi" a blood mist spurted out from Zhao Yuanji's chest. It seemed that he could not withstand the backlash of the powerful force of the Destiny Star Disk, and his meridians were broken.
At the same time, the cracks on the ground also expanded. A half-foot wide crack passed through the center of the city in an intermittent and winding manner. It was impossible to see the bottom at a glance. It was actually a bottomless abyss.
Countless ancient buildings were crumbling, threatened to collapse at any moment. Desperate cries echoed throughout the city, as if the end of the world had arrived.
"Zhao Yuanji, are you crazy? It doesn't matter if you die, but if Black Stone City is destroyed, all the members of your Zhao family will die. Do you really want the Zhao family to be extinct?" The head of the Xu family was shocked again and shouted loudly.
"Hmph, even if we don't regret taking over Black Stone City, won't my Zhao family be extinct? Today, my Zhao family will undoubtedly be wiped out, and you, will be buried with them, hahahaha." Zhao Yuanji roared with a crazy laugh.
"He's crazy, he's really crazy." Patriarch Xu murmured. The children from the various families who came with them to the Mu family all had expressions of regret and despair on their faces.
"Master Patriarch, please leave quickly and don't worry about us." The Great Elder shouted to Mu Ruian urgently.
With their strength, they definitely can't escape, but Mu Ruian and Mu Hanfeng should still have a chance, so there's no need to accompany them to death.
Mu Ruian and his son shook their heads firmly. The light barrier outside was indeed much weaker, and he and Mu Hanfeng did have a chance to escape, but their relatives, friends, and the Wu family members who came all the way to support the Mu family were in the city. How could he abandon them?
Mu Ruian and his son looked at each other, and once again slashed at Zhao Yuanji with their swords with all their strength.
Witnessing this scene, the Wu and Yuan families were filled with admiration. If someone else possessed such strength, they wouldn't have cared about family and friends, prioritizing their own survival. As long as a strong person like him survived, the family would have a chance to revive sooner or later. Even if others were abandoned by them, for the sake of the family's future, they would never complain.
But they stayed without hesitation and fought to the death with Zhao Yuanji.
Even outsiders felt the same way. The Great Elder and other descendants of the Mu clan's branch families were so moved that their eyes filled with tears.
No matter how long they have been away from the capital, they are descendants of the Mu family after all. Mu Ruian's family has never treated them as outsiders, but as their closest relatives and treated them equally.
Lines of blood-red light suddenly burst out from the destiny star disk, like a piece of red lightning.
The explosions were deafening, and the ground was like a tornado, with sand and rocks flying everywhere.
After a moment, the smoke dissipated, and Mu Ruian and his son were actually shocked ten feet away. Both of them were in a mess, and blood was oozing from the corners of their mouths.
Seeing such a result, even the Mu family members felt a little desperate: Is it really impossible to stop Zhao Yuanji today?
Zhao Yuanji's clothes were soaked with blood, and he was spitting blood clots from his mouth, clearly seriously injured. Yet, he continued chanting the spell, the earth still heaving and shaking, and the cracks and abysses continued to expand.
Everyone knows that unless his chanting can be stopped, Blackrock City will eventually be destroyed and fall into the endless abyss.
However, even Mu Ruian and his son couldn't stop him, so who else could do it?
"Master Zhao, I am a descendant of the Mu family in the capital. Today's incident has nothing to do with my master and me. Please be kind and let us go." Mu Yunshui, shaking with fear, cried to Zhao Yuanji. He had worked so hard to reach his current position, how could he bear to throw his life away in Black Stone City?
"Master Priest, you...you..." The Great Elder was so ashamed and angry when he saw Mu Yunshui was so cowardly and humble that he was speechless.
The other Mu family members looked at Master Mu Yunshui and his apprentice with disdain. Even the Yuan and Wu families, and even Patriarch Xu, hadn't begged for mercy yet, yet they were the first to grovel. As members of the Mu family, they were also embarrassed.
