" Spiritual Magnetization!"

In a panic, Chen Mu attracted the surrounding spiritual magnetic field to surround his body, and then instantly appeared hundreds of meters away.

"Trying to escape? No way!"

At Dugu He's level, martial arts techniques can lock onto a person's aura. It's impossible to evade a lock by teleporting alone. Generally, facing the opponent head-on is the best approach, as moving around can easily put you at a disadvantage.

" Five Elements War Soldiers, Eight Trigrams Dunjia Array!"

Chen Mu had many tricks up his sleeve; before the giant black finger flew over, he summoned ten Five Elements War Soldiers.

Ten Five Elements War Soldiers evolved beneath their feet into an exquisite pattern formed by the fusion of the Eight Trigrams and the Heavenly Stems. This time, the pattern was no longer just a shield, but a complete formation.

Thump~~ Sizzle!

The giant black finger slammed violently into the Eight Trigrams Dunjia Array, but the Eight Trigrams Dunjia Array was not only for defense. Soon, the giant black finger was swallowed up by the Eight Trigrams Dunjia Array and disappeared completely.

"Alas, my precious materials!"

Despite the giant finger being swallowed up, Chen Mu felt immense heartache looking at the partially shattered Five Elements War Soldiers.

The Five Elements War Soldiers were all crafted by him using a vast amount of spiritual materials, and each one was priceless. This time, in order to win the bet with Dugu He, he really went all out.

"I... lost!"

Although Dugu He was unwilling to admit it, his moves had been broken, and he had no choice but to concede defeat.

"Given your understanding of the Profound Mystery of Chaos, you should have broken through to the Saint Level long ago. Why haven't you broken through yet?"

For a typical Peak Emperor Level, comprehending even one Profound Mystery of Chaos is enough to advance them to the Saint Level.

Judging from the battle just now, Chen Mu has mastered at least four or five kinds of Profound Mystery of Chaos, and should be able to easily break through to the Saint Level.

What's even more terrifying is that Chen Mu can also fuse these Profound Mystery of Chaos, something that many Saint Level Late Stage cannot do.

"I have my own considerations; Senior Dugu need not trouble yourself."

Chen Mu didn't break through for two reasons: firstly, to solidify his foundation, and secondly, to make it easier to return to the Pan Emperor Continent. However, he was too lazy to explain to Dugu He.

"Alright, since I've lost, I'll leave now."

I only hope that King Weiyuan will treat the people of my city well, and treat my descendants well.

Zemeng City was built by his own hands, and countless generations of his descendants lived there, so he naturally had feelings for it.

As long as he lived, whoever occupied the city would give him some face, so he could leave without worry.

Chen Mu watched Dugu He leave silently until Dugu He completely disappeared before landing on the ground.

However, at that moment, a warning suddenly struck him; a terrifying force approached from afar and instantly enveloped him.

"What's this?"

Before he could react, an irresistible suction force appeared and pulled him over.

"The adult is in danger! Go after them!"

Shi Xing and the others, who were on guard below, saw Chen Mu being sucked away by a red light and immediately led their men to give chase.

Having been tempered by war, the Yin Five Elements Legion has also undergone tremendous transformation, and its combined strength is extraordinary.

They wore advanced auxiliary armor, transformed into a giant five-element wheel, and chased after Chen Mu in the direction he had left.

Soon, they caught up with them in a dense forest. In the center of the forest was a clearing, where a magic array wrapped in blood-red light was placed.

At the center of the magic circle was a blood-red bead, emitting a strong, unpleasant stench of blood.

"Who dares to set up an evil formation to ambush my master?"

The scene here was eerie, Shi Xing dared not attack rashly, so he shouted loudly.

"If you don't want to die, get out of here when the Asura Clan is doing their job!"

A stunningly beautiful woman dressed in loose-fitting sacrificial robes suddenly appeared and blocked Shi Xing and the others.

It's you, Wu Qianqiu!

As Chen Mu's capable subordinate, Shi Xing recognized the woman at a glance as Wu Qianqiu, the high priest of the Asura Clan.

Wu Qianqiu is the Number Two figure in the Asura Imperial Court. Her presence here speaks volumes; Chen Mu must be in danger.

"Where have you taken my master? Release him right now, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"

Shi Xing brandished his halberd and roared angrily.

"Ha ha..."

Wu Qianqiu couldn't help but burst into loud laughter, as if he had heard an incredibly ridiculous joke.

"A Mid Emperor Level being leading a legion whose entire members haven't even reached the Core Formation stage, and you think you can take me down? You're far too overestimating yourselves."

The elite legions of the three Imperial Court are basically all at the Core Formation Realm, and their leaders are all at the Pseudo-Saint level. Even when they fight with all their might, they can barely contend with the Mid Saint Level.

Less than half of the Yin Five Elements Legion are above the Core Formation Realm. No matter how exquisite their battle formation is, how could they possibly be a match for Wu Qianqiu?

Shi Xing understood this principle, of course, but when he joined Chen Mu's forces, he had already sworn to be loyal to Chen Mu for life, so how could he back down now?

"Captains, listen up! We need to find a way to attack that crimson magic circle. Let's move!"

Judging from Wu Qianqiu's constant blocking in front of the crimson magic circle, Chen Mu was likely trapped inside. Without further hesitation, Shi Xing activated the battle formation to launch an attack.

The five thousand men were divided into five groups, and pieces of their auxiliary armor flew off, eventually forming a huge metal cannon muzzle that was pointed at Wu Qianqiu.

"What kind of move is that? Interesting!"

Wu Qianqiu, confident in his cultivation level, did not immediately take action, but instead watched the changes in the battle formation with great interest.

Shi Xing had guessed this, which is why he chose to use this move as his starting stance. After all, few people have seen a move that combines Rune Artifacts and martial arts, and people generally wouldn't act rashly without knowing the extent of its power.

The Five Elements Rotation, Great Five Elements Cannon!

The Spiritual Power of the five groups merged into one, transforming into a giant Five Elements Ring, which converged into the metal cannon muzzle and suddenly shot towards Wu Qianqiu.

Boom!

With a deafening roar, the five-colored cannon slammed into Wu Qianqiu, but she blocked it with one hand.

"Not bad! It seems I underestimated you. The power of this move is comparable to the Mid Saint Level."

A hint of surprise flashed in Wu Qianqiu's eyes. She realized that although Chen Mu's subordinates were not very strong, they all had amazing potential.

If they are allowed to grow up unchecked, they will inevitably cause trouble in the future. It seems that His Majesty has underestimated the threat posed by Chen Mu.

Whoosh whoosh~!

After its attack, the Yin Five Elements Legion did not stop, but quickly landed on the ground and then disappeared into the forest.

"Hmph! Sneaky and underhanded, it's clearly not up to par for refined tastes."

Wu Qianqiu frowned and released his Voodoo Domain, trying to find traces of the Yin Five Elements Legion.

Sizzle~ Sizzle~~!

As soon as her domain was released, countless pillars of light shot into the sky from the forest, forming a huge Five Elements Ring pattern, which for a moment imprisoned her domain from spreading outward.
