Locked in an Evenly Matched Battle
At the same time, terrifying Sha Qi and demonic energy erupted from Tieguai Li's body, making him appear like a demon from the Nine Netherworlds Hell, sending chills down one's Tieguai Li.
"Kill!!!"
With a roar, Tieguai Li brandished the Chaos Tree in his hand and attacked the group of men in black.
Rumble...
A fierce battle suddenly broke out, producing a series of booming sounds.
A series of ear-piercing sounds exploded, causing the entire world to tremble.
Tieguai Li engaged in combat with the group of men in black.
The two sides fought fiercely for a time, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.
Each of these men in black was a powerful expert at the Half-Step Reincarnation Realm, and they were also assassins skilled in killing, making their strength even more terrifying.
Therefore, Tieguai Li was indeed suppressed for a time and was at a disadvantage.
However, these men in black did not kill Tieguai Li immediately; they were waiting for the Dragon Emperor to personally deal with Tieguai Li.
Moreover, the Star Pearl inside Tieguai Li's body was also stirring restlessly.
The men in black all had a greedy glint in their eyes when they saw the Star Pearl.
After all, the Star Pearl can enhance one's strength; it is a supreme treasure of heaven and earth, an existence that is infinitely close to Divine Artifact, and its value is extremely precious.
"How can this kid have Star Pearl inside him?!"
The Dragon Emperor and Cao Guojiu, who were standing to the side, were both startled when they saw the Star Pearl inside Tieguai Li's body, which was shining with a dazzling golden light.
"Boy, hand over that Star Pearl now, or you'll suffer a beating!!!"
The leader of the men in black looked at Tieguai Li and spoke in a very arrogant tone.
"Hand over the Star Pearl?"
Upon hearing these words, Tieguai Li's lips curled into a cold smile.
"Kid, if you know what's good for Laozi, hand over the Star Pearl right now!!!"
The group of men in black shouted, their expressions extremely arrogant.
Tieguai Li's body shot backward.
As Tieguai Li retreated, his body was suddenly attacked by the combined forces of the men in black.
Bang bang bang...
A series of muffled thuds rang out, and figures fell one after another into pools of blood.
"Such formidable attack power, but you still can't kill me!!!"
Tieguai Li looked at the group of men in black robes and coldly shouted.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and his pupils focused into needle-like beams that shot out with a terrifying aura. His body shot forward, and the Chaos Tree in his hand lashed out wildly at the men in black.
Tieguai Li was stronger than them; his strength completely overwhelmed and utterly crushed them.
Soon, all the men in black robes were blasted away by Tieguai Li.
They all lay on the ground, spitting blood, their faces pale, staring at Tieguai Li with expressions of shock in their eyes.
None of them expected that Tieguai Li would be so strong.
For a moment, a look of deep shock appeared in the eyes of the group of men in black.
"Useless trash, you're all a bunch of useless trash!!!"
Seeing that this group of people had been easily defeated by Tieguai Li, the Dragon Emperor's eyes flashed with a cold light, and he let out a cold snort.
"Dragon Emperor, stop pretending here. You still got killed by him, didn't you?!"
"You'd better hand over the Star Pearl right now, or don't blame us for taking action!!!"
The group of men in black looked at the Dragon Emperor and coldly snorted.
"You think you can kill him? That's wishful thinking!!!"
At this moment, Cao Guojiu walked out with a cold smile and shouted at the group of men in black robes.
The group of men in black robes stared at Cao Guojiu, a hint of apprehension flashing in their eyes.
They then prepared to turn and leave, not wanting to stay any longer.
But at that moment, Tieguai Li suddenly appeared in front of them, emanating a terrifying murderous intent.
He immediately unleashed the Starfall Finger, blasting a single finger towards the group of black-robed men.
They immediately sensed a deadly crisis and hurriedly activated their martial arts techniques to try and block the Starfall Finger.
As a result, Tieguai Li's move, imbued with the Power of Stars and the might of the Chaos Tree, annihilated the entire group of men in black with overwhelming force.
Corpses fell to the ground, turning into pools of blood.
"Damn it, that kid actually killed me!!!"
Seeing the group of men in black being completely wiped out, Cao Guojiu stared dumbfounded at Tieguai Li, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.
"I never expected this guy to be hiding such a terrifying trump card!!!"
The Dragon Emperor looked at Tieguai Li coldly.
"No matter what, none of you are leaving today!!!"
Tieguai Li looked at the other party and coldly spat out, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Immediately, the Star Pearl in his hand burst forth with dazzling light.
A golden ray of light shot out from the Star Pearl, transforming into a ball of golden flame that enveloped the group of men in black.
Once the golden flames ignited, they emitted intense heat, instantly engulfing and burning the group of men in black.
The group of men in black screamed repeatedly, letting out shrill and painful roars.
Then they all turned to ashes and disappeared into this space.
"Cao Guojiu, Dragon Emperor, you'd better surrender obediently, or your only fate will be death!!!"
Tieguai Li looked at Cao Guojiu and coldly snorted.
"Kid, you're too arrogant. Do you think we can't do anything to you just because you killed a few of our men?"
At this moment, the black-robed leader fixed his gaze on Tieguai Li, swayed, and stood up, staring coldly at Tieguai Li.
"Since you haven't grasped the situation, I'll give you one chance!!!"
Tieguai Li coldly retorted.
Tieguai Li took out pills one by one and threw them into his mouth, swallowing them all. Terrifying energy erupted within his body.
In an instant, he absorbed all the pills, and a surge of powerful energy erupted from his body.
With the burst of this energy, Tieguai Li's cultivation began to break through, reaching the Sage Third Stage.
A series of booming sounds rang out from within his body as incomparably powerful Saint Yuan surged into him, beginning to temper his physical body.
At the same time, streams of Spirit Vein flowed into his body, continuously tempering his physique and enhancing his physical potential.
"What happened? Did he break through to the Sage Fourth Stage?"
"What kind of skill did this guy cultivate? He broke through two levels in such a short time! This is too heaven-defying!!!"
Seeing Tieguai Li's sudden surge in strength, both the Dragon Emperor and Cao Guojiu stared at Tieguai Li with surprise.
At this moment, the Power of Stars and the Chaos Tree within Tieguai Li's body all erupted with terrifying energy.
A destructive aura emanated from the Power of Stars and the Chaos Tree.
Immediately, patches of dark clouds gathered in this space.
Streaks of lightning streaked across the void.
