Mu Xuanheng and Gu Yuena sped through the air.
They could never be the Demon Empress's match.
Nor could the Demon Empress possibly let them leave.
They were the only ones capable of growing strong enough in a short time to kill her.
Who would easily let their only threat escape? Besides, negotiations between them had completely broken down.
A god-level being was faster than them.
Even with Ultimate Wind and countless enhancements, they could not shake off the Demon Empress.
"So we really can only fight back."
The Demon Empress pursued them relentlessly. Mu Xuanheng could see her speed; she would catch up to them in just a few breaths.
"Qiu'er!"
If they were going to counterattack, they had to use their strongest method. They could not hold anything back.
"Trinity Martial Soul Fusion Skill!"
The enormous dragon body transformed into Mu Xuanheng's form.
As they grew and recovered, their Martial Soul Fusion Skill became increasingly closer to their original size.
A nine-colored halo floated in midair, exerting absolute pressure over soul beasts.
Even the Demon Empress was forced to halt her pursuit. "So this is your Martial Soul Fusion Skill? It truly lives up to its reputation. You are indeed worthy of being my lord."
In this form, Mu Xuanheng made even the god-level Demon Empress feel a trace of danger.
"With only six rings, you can threaten a god-level being. Even with a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, you are the first to accomplish this."
The notion that ants could bite an elephant to death existed only in fantasy.
Even a slight gap in strength was worlds apart, yet they had crossed so many ranks to threaten her.
This only strengthened the Demon Empress's resolve not to let them escape.
"Dark Tide."
Endless seawater materialized in the void
