Chapter 1176 Counterattack
Xiong Ao's questioning voice shook the whole field, and even the deafening roar in the sky could not suppress it.
Before Yuwen Tailuo could speak, Li Chuyi took the lead in telling the whole story. During this period, Yuwen Tailuo did not say a word and let him add fuel to the fire. He sneered after he finished speaking.
"Evil words to confuse the people!"
Looking at Li Chuyi sarcastically, Yuwen Tailuo said coldly: "Do you think your rhetoric can deceive him? Do you think that you can wash away your sins by using illusion to create the phantom of Mu Xueling? You are a wolf-hearted and vicious alien soul. Not only did you kill Ling'er, but you also let her not rest in peace after death. However, you only know the superficial and do not know the root. My beloved wife is not like this at all. Just like me, she will never draw a sword against me!"
Mu Xueling also heard this, and she said coldly without Li Chuyi refuting her: "Phantom? What a joke! Yuwen Tailuo, you Dare you look me in the eye and say it again! "
Yuwen Tailuo did not respond, but turned his head and said to General Xiong: "Xiong Ao, this thief rebelled and deceived the Heavenly Master, and he also conjured up the phantom of Queen Ying. This is disrespectful and deserves death. I order you to lead the troops to protect the emperor and kill him and his followers!"
"Bah, if you can't beat them, just call for help. Do you have any face, old man?"
Spitting blood on the ground, Li Chuyi turned his head and looked at Xiong Ao: "Do you believe him or me!"
Xiong Ao was very hesitant. He wanted to believe Li Chuyi and Mu Xueling, but Yuwen Tailuo's words made sense. If Mu Xueling came back to life, he could still barely believe it, but Li Chuyi said that Mu Xueling came through time and space. How could he believe it?
No matter how magical the Mu family's Yandao is, it is limited to the scope of humans. They are not immortals, let alone the way of heaven. Let alone the mysterious things like time and space, they may not be able to sense them. This is like fish and water. Water carries fish like time and space for fish. Fish that live in water all their lives cannot sense the existence of water. Only when they occasionally jump out of the water can they see a glimpse of it, but it is only a glimpse. After falling into the water, they are still indistinguishable as before.
Seeing Li Chuyi and Yuwen Tailuo staring at him, Xiong Ao hesitated again and again and couldn't make up his mind. He wanted to see Mu Fangli and ask the Heavenly Master to give a clear indication, but Mu Fangli's whole mind was on the big Yin-Yang hexagram in his hand and he had no time to be distracted. Xiong Ao was helpless and kept silent, and his heart was extremely tormented.
"Little Xiong Xiong, you don't have to rush to make a choice. Just stand aside and watch. The right and wrong will come out."
Mu Xueling suddenly spoke, and Xiong Ao nodded silently after a pause.
On one side is the master who has followed for many years, and on the other side is Mu Xueling who treats him like a brother. Xiong Ao has no way to distinguish the truth from the false for a while. Instead of gambling, it is better to stand aside and watch as Mu Xueling said. No matter what the truth is, there will be a result today.
"Bitch!"
Yuwen Tailuo's face turned black. Although he didn't expect General Xiong to follow his orders, he was still very angry about General Xiong's performance. After so many years, his words were not as effective as Mu Xueling's. This matter itself made him unbearable and felt that his imperial power was seriously challenged.
However, it didn't matter.
Mu Xueling was now strong on the outside but weak on the inside. Even with Mu Fangli's help, she was overwhelmed by the meteorite fire heavenly tribulation pill in Yu Yao's body, which allowed him to find a gap and break free from her restraints.
This was the first time in many years that he was so grateful to Taixu Palace. If Taixu Palace hadn't made such a powerful fusion tribulation pill, his situation today would really be very ugly, and he might even die here.
When Li Chu saw Mu Xueling speak, he stopped talking, but he couldn't help but persuade Li Sinian and the others. He frowned and said in a hurry: "Brother Fang, you guys go quickly, I can't die, I'll find you when I escape!"
"Meet up! If you don't leave, we won't leave either!"
Before Fang Junnan spoke, Li Sinian started yelling. He wanted to come in with a soft sword to help, but even a blind man could see how strange the Tongtian formation was. Mu Xueling also said that there was no way out, so he weighed it for a long time and finally did not dare to approach. He could only walk along the edge of the formation like an ant on a hot pot.
The same was true for the others, who had no intention of leaving at all, especially Hai Wufeng. When he saw Yu Yao, who looked like charcoal, he went crazy and rushed over without knowing where he got the strength. If Fang Junnan hadn't been quick to stop him, he would have entered the formation.
"Xiaoyao! Xiaoyao, wake up!"
Yu Yao still didn't make a sound after crying for a long time.
He roared a few times in grief and anger, and suddenly raised his hand and pointed at Yuwen Taihao.
"Damn Yu Hao! You let Xiaoyao become like this in front of you, I will kill you!!!"
As he said this, he used his palm as a knife to slash a few times, and the sharp knife energy broke through the air, but it was reduced layer by layer as soon as it entered the formation, and it disappeared in less than three feet, and all turned into spiritual energy and merged into the formation.
Hai Wufeng became even more angry, and he swung and slashed again and again, but the result was still the same.
The others were all secretly shocked when they saw this, and Mu Dong and Xiong Jiang frowned even more, and they couldn't help but believe Li Chuyi's words a little more.
Thinking of Li Chuyi's words, Mu Dong's face did not move, but his heart was secretly sad. If he had a glimmer of hope for Mu Fangli's survival, now he saw this formation and his heart was completely cold.
In this way, time passed bit by bit, and the punishment in the sky showed no sign of stopping. Li Chuyi on the ground also fought with Yuwen Tailuo from time to time, and the rest of the time he was secretly adjusting his breath during the confrontation.
The only one who saw a change was Yu Yao. The nine-pointed starlight in her body began to slowly brighten again. Although the speed was slow, it never stopped. However, the spirits of Mu Xueling and Mu Fangli became fainter and fainter.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the two of them were about to lose control.
Mu Xueling's face was as gloomy as water, and she secretly thought that Taixu Palace had really refined something powerful this time. The firepower in it was not entirely the fire of the human world, and there was a hint of Taoist fire and fairy flame. It completely confirmed the word "heavenly tribulation" and could even refine their spiritual bodies.
At the same time, she was very glad that she did not rashly kill Yu Yao directly. During the confrontation, she found more than one forbidden trap in the fire. These restrictions were all connected to Yu Yao's life. Once she died, these restrictions would be activated at the same time. No one knew what the fire would become under the chain reaction, but it was certain that the power would be several times or even dozens of times greater.
In addition, like Li Chuyi, the fire was also absorbing the power of the formation. Fortunately, she was sharp-minded and discovered it early, and cut off its connection with the formation in time, so that it did not explode at the speed of expansion, and it has been delayed until now.
But this is not a long-term solution.
She suppressed the fireball, but the fireball was also constantly igniting her spiritual energy and merging into a part of herself. Even if she tried to restrain herself, she couldn't stop the momentum of one growing while the other declining. Unless she withdrew her skills and stopped practicing, she would eventually be merged by the fireball. But it was impossible to stop. Without the suppression, the fireball would explode in an instant, and the result would be the same.
If she was not a spirit but an intact person, there might be a way, but now she was caught in a dilemma, and no matter what she did, it would be a dead end.
If there was another person who was similar to her to help, it would be great. In that case, she could make the Tongtian formation stagnate for a moment and take the opportunity to transfer this hot potato away from here. But there were too few such people. It was not enough to have a high level of cultivation, but one must also be proficient in the Dao of Derivation. Otherwise, suppressing it with conventional means would only become a fuel for the fireball and speed up its explosion.
Thinking of one method after another in her mind, Mu Xueling suddenly felt a chill in her heart. In her peripheral vision, Yuwen Tailuo's heavy palm was approaching her. In a hurry, she could only withdraw one hand to meet it with her backhand. Two muffled groans sounded at the same time. She shook her body and spit out a breath of spiritual light like vomiting blood, and Yuwen Tailuo also staggered and fell back, and the skin and flesh of his right hand withered at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Glancing sideways, Mu Xueling felt a little cold in her heart. I saw that the five elders of Dayan had broken free at some point, each of them pinched their fingers and pointed at this side, competing with her for the control of the Tongtian formation.
Li Chuyi, who was supposed to block Yuwen Tailuo, half-knelt on the ground, his face trembling fiercely and trying to struggle to get up, but he couldn't get up at all as if several mountains were pressing on his body. He could only look at this side with red eyes and anxiously, and his mouth kept roaring like a trapped beast.
"It's broken!"
Just as she was about to distract herself and re-imprison, Mu Xueling's face suddenly changed drastically. It was the Nine-pointed Star Cluster that suddenly expanded several times in the moment she was distracted, and the white flames reappeared.
Frightened, Mu Xueling was about to remedy the situation, but the Five Elders moved, and hundreds of invisible chains wrapped around her, vowing to imprison Mu Xueling.
"Idiot, why don't you deal with the Meteorite Fire Heavenly Tribulation Pill!"
Mu Xueling was anxious and angry, but Elder Wen smiled easily.
"Queen Ying, don't worry about this!"
After saying that, he pointed at Yu Yao, and half of the invisible rope around Mu Xueling ran over, penetrating the charred flesh without any obstruction, wrapping the Nine-pointed Star Cluster layer by layer like a cocoon, and finally tightening it hard to completely imprison it.
With a triumphant smile, Yuwen Tailuo was about to approach, but saw Mu Xueling's face became even more shocked and angry and said: "Idiot, you are doing more harm than good!"
Before he finished speaking, the abnormality increased sharply.
The nine-pointed star cluster that had disappeared along with the invisible rope reappeared. The invisible chain quickly revealed its shape under its burning, and then silently turned into a part of it. The star cluster suddenly expanded, turning Yu Yao into a dazzling light person again.
Yuwen Tailuo's smile froze on his face, and the five elders were also shocked. Mu Xueling was angry and didn't care about much. Several mantras were instantly transmitted to the minds of the five elders.
"Do as I say, don't do unnecessary things!"
With a delicate shout, Mu Xueling pinched the mantra again to suppress it. The five elders did not dare to delay and hurriedly cooperated according to the instructions of the voice transmission.
Seeing that no one paid attention to this side, Yuwen Tailuo's eyes flashed and looked at Li Chuyi gloomily. With a sneer, he flashed to the front, and the old right hand pressed on Li Chuyi's head again, and took the opportunity to refine it again.
How could Li Chuyi just sit there and wait for death? His body couldn't move, but his mind was still there. He urged the animal skin scabbard to sacrifice the moon wheel, but Yuwen Tailuo's cold voice rang in his ears.
"Help me, it's like saving your friends! I only want you, and I can promise to let your friends go, and I will never break my promise!"
The struggle stopped instantly, Li Chuyi looked up and stared at Yuwen Tailuo's cold eyes, not knowing what to choose.
