Just then, Lü Shuihua launched another attack on Chen Mu.

This time, however, Chen Mu did not dodge or evade, allowing Lü Shuihua's knife to pierce his chest.

Die!

Chen Mu grabbed Lü Shuihua's weapon-wielding hand with his left hand, a red glint flashing in his eyes, and slammed his right palm hard onto Lü Shuihua's head.

puff...!

Lü Shuihua was thrown heavily like a sandbag and fell to the ground.

"Even a cornered beast will fight!"

At this moment, Lü Shuifeng's attack also came from behind Chen Mu. She was not intimidated by Chen Mu. Instead, she smiled coldly and stabbed at the back of Chen Mu's head.

Even for a cultivator at the Creation Realm, the physical body is fundamental. Lü Shuifeng believed that Chen Mu, having been pierced through the chest, would at least be severely injured, if not dead, and was currently only struggling in his death throes.

It wasn't until Lü Shuifeng's knife pierced Chen Mu's head that she realized something was wrong.

"Could it be an illusion?"

She found that the tip of her knife didn't feel like it was piercing anything, but Chen Mu's body was clearly right in front of her, not at all like a fake.

"Hehe, you can get down here too!"

Chen Mu threw a punch, and the surrounding space seemed to become unstable. The punch appeared slow, but by the time it reached Lü Shuifeng, she realized that she had no time to defend herself.

boom...!

Lü Shuifeng was punched in the abdomen, but strangely, her body did not fall backward. Instead, she was pulled by a force and fell directly to the ground.

"Elder sister!"

At this moment, Lü Shuihua, who had fallen to the ground, got up and launched another attack on Chen Mu.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Boom!

The same scene repeated itself: all of Lü Shuihua's attacks hit Chen Mu as if they were hitting a Wukong, while all of Chen Mu's counterattacks were unaffected, and their power was even increased significantly.

Both Lü Shuihua and Lü Shuifeng are at the Late Creation Realm and have already merged with most of the Spirit of Creation, making them extremely resilient. Generally, even if they cannot defeat their enemies, no one can stop them from escaping if they want to.

However, Chen Mu was currently locked in combat with the two of them, preventing them from leaving the Domain of Laws.

Because of the existence of the Domain of Laws, they were unable to use escape methods such as teleportation. As the damage Chen Mu inflicted on them increased, the two of them ultimately failed to escape and became victims of Chen Mu Mu's attacks.

"All paths merge, the body transforms into chaos! Wonderful! Haha..."

After Chen Mu's Rune Cell evolved, they actually possessed a trace of the characteristics of void chaos. With just a thought, he could make any part of his body hide in the chaos.

It was precisely because of this ability that the Lü Sisters could not attack him no matter what, while he could use his power without any hindrance.

With this ability, it would be impossible for an ordinary Emperor Level being to kill him, unless the opponent possessed the ability to shake the chaos, and such an ability is rare among Emperor Level.

After killing the Lü Sisters, Chen Mu took their storage rings and then set his sights on Wei Wencheng, whose power was sealed.

"No! Don't kill me!"

Wei Wencheng watched the entire fight between Chen Mu and the Lü Sisters, and was terrified to see how easily Chen Mu had killed Lü Sisters.

As Eighth-Grade Spirit Talisman Master, he held a prestigious position and was one of the top talisman masters in the entire Pan Emperor Continent. Even most of the Heaven Ranking experts on the Heavenly Ranking treated him with utmost respect, because no one could guarantee that they might need his help someday.

He never dreamed that his plan to ambush a rising star with two Heaven Ranking experts would lead him into such a dangerous situation.

" Chen Mu, I have no grudge against you. I am here to kill you on the orders of the sect leader."

If you release me, I can give you all my wealth— Spirit Stone, magical treasures, elixirs, I have them all...

All he cares about now is survival; nothing else matters.

Shut up!

Chen Mu was too lazy to listen to his rambling, and with a wave of his hand, he snatched the cloth bag from Wei Wencheng's waist.

This cloth bag is clearly a spatial artifact, and its size is no smaller than Chen Mu's spatial wrist, so Chen Mu naturally wouldn't let it go.

"Untie the bond of faith."

Although Wei Wencheng was heartbroken, he was now at the mercy of others and had no choice but to break the bond between the spatial magic artifact and its owner.

Chen Mu scanned Wei Wencheng's spatial pouch with his spiritual sense and was secretly amazed. Although there weren't many items in Wei Wencheng's pouch, each one was priceless. If all of them were put together, their value would be almost a third of the Chen Kingdom's national treasury.

However, the Chen Kingdom's treasury has recently suffered severe losses, and this cloth bag represents Wei Wencheng's savings accumulated over thousands of years, so this acquisition is not surprising.

The fighting among the soldiers outside had long since ended. Although many soldiers of the Chen Kingdom had died or been wounded, their core elite forces had not suffered significant losses.

When Wei Wencheng was captured, the formation sealing this space had already failed. However, the aftershocks of Chen Mu and the Lü Sisters ' battle were too terrifying, and no one else dared to approach.

Only then did Chen Xuezhen, Chen Manting, Han He, and others arrive before Chen Mu and respectfully bow.

Their eyes gleamed with barely suppressed excitement, for they too had recognized the Lü Sisters. Chen Mu's killing of a former Heaven Ranking expert had greatly boosted their morale.

" Han He, you lead the Five Elements Army to escort Wei Wencheng back to the capital and hand him over to Landuo."

Chen Mu did not intend to kill Wei Wencheng. Wei Wencheng was a traditional talisman cultivator who could fill the knowledge gaps of the Rune Research Institute and was of great value to the Rune Research Institute.

"Yes!"

Han He bowed respectfully, then personally went over, grabbed Wei Wencheng, and left.

"Xuezhen, Manting, relay my orders to the city lords on the border."

Immediately dispatch a large army to drive out the Heavenly Puppet Sect disciples and Jing Province troops from Yi Province.

If you encounter any problems, you can report them to me directly, and I will take care of them personally.

Although Chen Mu's tone was calm, both Chen Xuezhen and Chen Manting felt a chilling killing intent emanating from him.

"Yes!"

Chen Xuezhen turned around, led the army back to the city, and conveyed Chen Mu's message.

After everyone else had left, Chen Mu turned and looked towards Jing Province, a cold killing intent flashing in his eyes.

" Heavenly Shame Sect, hmph!"

The fact that the Heavenly Puppet Sect dared to send two Heaven Ranking experts and an Eighth-Grade Spirit Talisman Master to ambush him shows their malicious intent towards the Chen Kingdom. Even so, Chen Mu doesn't care about breaking ties with them.

Chen Mu wasn't afraid of even the Abyss Devil Race who could conquer planes, so why would he be afraid of such a Xiaoxiao Heavenly Puppet Sect?
