Haha... Chen Mu, now you know how powerful I am!
Once you're hit by my Necromantic Orb, all your Spiritual Power will be gradually corroded. Just wait to suffer endless torment and die! Hahaha..."
Xilade was very confident. The Necromantic Orb was his signature move, and he had used it to kill several Peak Emperor Level human cultivators. Therefore, he believed that Chen Mu was doomed.
However, he soon realized he was wrong, and Chen Mu's expression quickly changed from astonishment to mockery.
The three Necromantic Orb that had passed through Chen Mu's body tried to escape, but Chen Mu opened his mouth and sucked them all in, swallowing them whole.
"You..."
Tie Feng was startled. Xilade's Necromantic Orb was quite famous, and even he had to be cautious when facing this move. However, he did not expect Chen Mu to dare to swallow the Necromantic Orb directly, which made him have to re-evaluate Chen Mu's strength.
"Hmm... rich in magical energy, a good nutritional supplement."
After swallowing the Necromantic Orb, Chen Mu smacked his lips, looking relaxed.
However, in reality, a tremendous battle was taking place within Chen Mu's body. A large number of golden runes formed an orderly chain, decomposing, eliminating, and annihilating the black corrosive energy that had entered his body.
Those that cannot be eliminated are banished into the chaos of the universe through the space within the dantian.
" Xilade, is this all your attack is? Heh, it seems the rumors from the outside world are exaggerated."
Chen Mu suppressed the strange sensations within his body and spoke loudly.
The reputations of the six Demon Emperor were too illustrious. Chen Mu knew that in order to win this battle, he could not afford to be weak in terms of morale. Therefore, no matter how powerful the Necromantic Orb was, he had to withstand it.
The Abyss Devil Race are generally selfish, cunning, and suspicious, and their teamwork ability is far worse than that of humans.
If even one person can hold off the Black Demon Emperor, the morale of the Devil Race race will plummet, making it much easier for the Chen Kingdom to defeat them.
Tie Feng, who was originally ranked seventeenth on the Heaven Ranking, was a very suitable candidate to block the Black Demon Emperor.
However, the War Emperor Palace is, after all, an outsider, and it's even possible that they are observing the strength of the Chen Kingdom War Emperor Palace. If such an important matter is entrusted to them, it could lead to them underestimating us, which would undoubtedly be detrimental to future cooperation.
"What a powerful physical body!"
Xilade watched Chen Mu from afar, his eyes flickering with uncertainty.
The Necromantic Orb was a magical technique he created himself, and he knew better than anyone how powerful it was. He wouldn't have been so surprised if Chen Mu had merely dodged or blocked it; what was terrifying was that Chen Mu had actually swallowed the Necromantic Orb whole.
This alone makes Chen Mu's physical body comparable to the top twenty on the Heaven Ranking.
"Alright! With your current strength, you are indeed qualified to negotiate with me."
"Regarding the Devil Race below, I can only take the Black Demon Army and 100,000 elite troops. As for the remaining 300,000, you can kill them if you have the ability; I can leave them alone."
Xilade for a long time, Hillary surprisingly came up with this condition.
Chen Mu, Mingye, and the others were stunned when they heard these conditions, because according to their understanding, they simply could not comprehend what Xilade had done.
However, the Devil Race experts on Xilade's side showed no change in expression, instead appearing to take it all for granted.
Only the Devil Race soldiers below showed fear, but none of them dared to beg for mercy; they could only remain silent.
Among the Abyss Devil Race, those in power completely suppress those in lower ranks. If those in power order them to die, they can only die; they have no dignity whatsoever. If they dare to resist, their entire clan in the Devil Realm will be implicated.
" Chen Mu, this is something we can consider!"
Mingye flew to Chen Mu's side and reminded him.
Chen Mu was also very tempted. His most important purpose in coming here was to cripple the Black Demon Emperor's elite forces. If he could annihilate them all, the Abyss Devil Race would have a hard time turning the tide in Yi Province and West Ge Province for the next three to five years. This would give Chen Kingdom another long period of development.
However, after thinking about it for a while, Chen Mu still refused.
" Xilade, you've got a good plan. Half of your soldiers are wounded, and they can't escape anyway."
The 100,000 elite troops you are taking with you must include all the King Level, Emperor Level, and potential Devil Realm nobles; these are the pillars of your future.
"If I let you go now, you'll definitely be able to build an even stronger army within a year. Do you think I'm stupid?"
Xilade was not angered by this remark; instead, he gave a cold laugh.
"You need to think this through! Given the current disparity in strength, you'll likely leave behind the same number of your own men as well, no matter how many we want to leave behind. It's not wise to fight us head-on now."
Xilade seemed confident and fearless. Even with Chen Mu's mastery of the Runic Body and Tie Feng's help, he felt it would still be difficult for Chen Mu to stop him.
He currently commands far more Emperor Level experts Chen Kingdom, and although they are slightly inferior in quality, they would not be at a disadvantage in a real fight.
"Hehe, that's not necessarily true."
Have you ever heard that, for us talisman masters, as long as we have enough money, the quantity doesn't matter?
Chen Mu chuckled, clasped his hands together, and ten Five Elements Ring patterns lit up beneath him. Immediately afterwards Five Elements War Soldiers crawled out from within the Five Elements Ring, roaring angrily to the sky.
"Born to fight!!"
Xilade's pupils contracted slightly, because he sensed an unusual aura emanating from these Five Elements War Soldiers. This power did not belong to this world, but rather to the void of the universe.
"Elemental fusion, perfect unity? Has Chen Mu begun to comprehend the Profound Mystery of Chaos? No, how is that possible?"
Xilade's expression suddenly changed drastically, and for the first time, a strong killing intent appeared in his eyes. This killing intent was directed at none other than Chen Mu, who had summoned the Five Elements War Soldiers.
Chen Mu was unaware that for cultivators at the Emperor Level, there was an extremely difficult barrier to overcome in order to advance to the Saint Level: comprehend the Profound Mystery of Chaos.
Chaos is the primordial force that is omnipresent in the vast universe. Every cultivator who steps into the Emperor Level will naturally generate this force within them.
This power is called ' World Power ' by the Creation Realm experts who possess an inner world, while it is generally called ' World Power ' by those of other cultivation systems.
Although ordinary Emperor Level cultivators possess World Power, they do not know how to use it and simply enhance the power of weapons and living beings.
Only by reaching the Saint Level can one truly utilize the World Power, thereby achieving the ability to roam the universe freely and without restraint.
It is evident that the most important thing for Emperor Level to advance to the Saint Level is to comprehend chaos and master the method of utilizing the World Power. However, this step has trapped countless geniuses.
