"Okay, okay, then I'll see how long you can hold on!" Guan Xiu Jin didn't expect Mu Hanyan to be so stubborn and still refused to give in, so he said angrily.
Divine arts attacked again and again. Mu Hanyan used her spiritual power to condense into a shield again and again, and vomited "blood" again and again. Her whole body was shaky, but she always insisted on not falling down.
Jiang Ruchu and the others, using their spiritual sense to monitor Mu Hanyan's movements, were deeply moved. Call it stubbornness or obstinacy, Mu Hanyan's determination to fight to the death was something not commonplace. It was no wonder she had become the head priestess of a hall at such a young age. If they had lived in the same era, even they couldn't compare.
Little did they know that Mu Hanyan's condition wasn't as dire as they'd imagined. Without even noticing, she'd already broken through several spells, leaving only the final death spell. While the spells bombarded her relentlessly, their power was in fact pitifully small.
Mu Hanyan believed that as long as she could crack this final law of death, she would pass the second level of the test, and all her divine arts would disappear. However, when it came to acting, of course, the more complete the performance, the better. She absolutely could not put any pressure on Guan Xiujin and the others, otherwise how could they honestly help her break the restriction?
Besides, taking this opportunity to comprehend the laws more carefully will only benefit her in integrating the laws in the future. Such a good opportunity is not always available.
"Mu Hanyan..." Guan Xiujin couldn't help but yell again.
Counting the time, another five or six hours had passed. Even he was secretly frightened by the endless divine arts. If it were him, he would have died countless times. Mu Hanyan was probably at her limit as well. He didn't want this girl to die in the Palace of Spirits like this - if she had to die, she had to hand over the five-colored soul beads and elixirs before dying.
"You...you don't have to say anything. I'm still holding on...I can hold on." Unfortunately, he was disappointed again. He only heard Mu Hanyan spit out a mouthful of blood and spoke with uneven breathing.
"You..." Guan Xiujin was furious and anxious. When faced with such a stubborn person, he didn't know what to say.
At this moment, divine arts fell again.
Shouldn't I have played enough of the show? Mu Hanyan pondered secretly. At this point, even she felt it was a bit fake. If she continued, she might be exposed.
"Eight Desolations, the God Falls!" Mu Hanyan stood up with difficulty and slashed out with a sword.
His mind, however, followed the Hanxiao Sword and spread towards the death magic among the many magic arts.
"Not good!" Jiang Ruchu and the others had no idea what was going on and were all shocked.
Obviously, Mu Hanyan had been forced into a desperate situation and chose to fight desperately.
I didn't expect her to be so stubborn, still refusing to give in. In her current state, even standing up was a struggle, so how could she possibly break through so many divine arts?
"Sir, why don't we rescue her first?" Jiang Ruchu said anxiously.
"It's too late." Guan Xiu Jin said with a wry smile.
He hadn't expected Mu Hanyan to be so stubborn. If she died in the Spirit Hall, and she didn't have the Five-Colored Soul Orbs with her, all their efforts would be in vain. But breaking the restriction wasn't easy; even if they took action now, it would be too late.
Everyone had a gloomy look on their faces. Mu Hanyan was most likely to die, and they, the high priests, could only take the blame for her.
Suddenly, a strange light and color flashed in the Soul Hall. All the divine arts exploded at this moment, and then slowly disappeared. The ancient hall returned to peace again.
It was over, just like that. There were only two possibilities for this situation: one was that Mu Hanyan had passed the second level of the trial, and the other was that she had died on the spot. Obviously, the first possibility was impossible, so the second was the only one left.
"Hahahaha, it turns out that this second level trial is just... nothing more than that, cough cough..." At this moment, Mu Hanyan's loud laughter rang out, followed by a violent cough.
"You, you are not dead!" Guan Xiu Jin was surprised and happy.
"Just a few spells, they won't kill me. How many layers of restrictions does this Soul Palace have? Open them all, cough cough." Mu Hanyan finished, coughing up a few mouthfuls of blood berries. She portrayed that stubborn arrogance to the fullest. It must be said that Miss Mu's role as a sorcerer was well-deserved, and her acting skills were no less than Gao Weihu's.
"How did you pass this trial?" Guan Xiu Jin was not angry, but couldn't help asking curiously.
"Cough cough...Puff!" Unfortunately, the answer she got was the sound of Mu Hanyan vomiting blood while seriously injured.
"Master Priest, do you want to continue?" Jiang Ruchu asked.
"I didn't expect that Mu Hanyan could pass the second level of the trial. I don't know how much benefit she has gained. If I let her pass the next level..." Guan Xiu Jin hesitated.
They had brought Mu Hanyan to the Soul Palace originally to control her, but who knew that they were all exhausted and Mu Hanyan took advantage of them. If this continues, they may regret it.
"Mu Hanyan is already at the end of her strength. It would be a pity if we gave up halfway." This time, Jiang Ruchu took the initiative to speak without waiting for Gao Weilong and Kong Renhe, the two "good guys".
"That's true..." Guan Xiu Jin nodded, but still found it difficult to make the final decision.
"It seems that Mu Hanyan is seriously injured. Let's let her out first. In her current condition, she is definitely not our opponent. It will be easy to deal with her." Guan Qingyun said with some confusion.
They were wary of Mu Hanyan mainly because of her strength, but she was obviously seriously injured and could only exert a fraction of her strength. They could just let her out and deal with her properly. There was no need to bother with her.
"Xian, you don't know that once we open the barrier, Mu Hanyan will be teleported directly back to the Hall of Life, and we will have no chance to take action." Jiang Ruchu explained.
"So that's how it is." Guan Qingyun suddenly realized it, but he couldn't think of any solution.
"Chief Priest Guan, do you want me to continue? If you refuse to open the third level of restriction, please open the door of the hall and let me out." At this moment, Mu Hanyan's voice sounded sarcastic but obviously lacked confidence.
It has to be said that Mu Hanyan spoke at the right time. Guan Xiujing was still hesitant at first, but when he heard this, he immediately had an idea.
Obviously, Mu Hanyan was seriously injured and was frightened. She could not hold on any longer, otherwise she would not have asked them to open the palace door and let her out.
Guan Xiu Jin thought he saw through her thoughts, so how could he possibly let her get what she wanted?
