Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

But unfortunately, Murong Xue thought that her tragic past was not inferior to Ru Yin's. However, comparing misery is not the key point. The key lies in whether one's mind is strong.

Indeed, Murong Xue’s only weakness is Lu Mu.

If even he wanted to kill her, she probably wouldn't want to continue living.

But that's not true.

Her brother Mu is no longer that kind of person.

Rather than saying that she was mentally strong enough, it would be better to say that she trusted Lu Mu too much.

Murong Xue's gaze fell on Ru Yin's face. There was a strange and distorted expression on her face. She looked at her as if she wanted to tear her apart, but the hatred in her heart kept dissipating and turned into an inexplicable sorrow and melancholy.

"why why?"

Ru Yin's murmurs began to sound, her face became more and more distorted, and the pain seemed to penetrate into her brain.

"You let your guard down, and this is the result."

Murong Xue was not impatient. Ru Yin was resisting her charm. Originally, the huge difference in their cultivation would make it difficult for Murong Xue to influence Ru Yin with her charm, not to mention that Ru Yin herself was also an expert in using charm.

But Ru Yin's distraction at that moment gave Murong Xue the opportunity.

If you let your guard down and allow her charm to consume you, then Ru Yin will not have the chance to resist again.

"No... Impossible, how could I lose...! How could I lose to a little girl...!"

Those eyes gradually became cloudy and filled with bloodshot, as if they were struggling desperately, but in the end, the vortex in Murong Xue's eyes still swallowed up her consciousness.

So, at that moment, Murong Xue saw everything.

"Well... that's a bit too much."

She murmured, Ru Yin's past was not small. This Eclipse Sun Demon Woman had lived for more than seven hundred years. The vast past suddenly appeared before her eyes. For a moment, Murong Xue only felt a severe headache and fatigue washing over her body.

The power of Tao is being consumed rapidly. She, who is at the Source Realm, is forcibly crossing levels to control Ru Yin, who is at the Life Wheel Realm. The consumption is not small.

But, this is enough.

Lu Mu's hand rested on her shoulder. She endured her fatigue and turned her head.

What I saw was that gentle, strong and very familiar man.

"Xiaoxue, how are you?"

Lu Mu supported her and let her fall gently into his arms. The Wanyun Plain reappeared and the created illusion completely disappeared. And Ru Yin, the enchantress who was still full of dirty talk and quite arrogant, thinking she had won, was gone.

At this moment, he was kneeling on the ground, holding his forehead with his hands, gasping in pain.

"Get out of my head!"

She screamed, her face was so distorted, but Ru Yin could do nothing except kneel on the ground and hold on.

Murong Xue controlled her.

Chapter 48: Death is not peaceful

This was something Ru Yin had never expected. Even though she had revealed her mental flaws just now, she had never thought that she would be controlled by Murong Xue.

How is this possible?

She could feel Murong Xue's voice, her power was running wild in her body and mind. People who are bewitched usually don't realize they have been bewitched until the moment they wake up from a dream and are powerless to save themselves.

But Ru Yin could feel it, but she couldn't immediately dispel the power of the white-haired girl who was a whole realm weaker than her!

This is usually not a problem.

But now, she was facing four people.

The time she was under control was the key to determining her life or death.

"Hurry up, my charm has limited effect..."

Murong Xue was breathing softly, her voice trembling noticeably, and it was obvious that she was putting in a lot of effort.

Although her natural charm was incredibly powerful, Ru Yin's cultivation was much higher than hers after all. Although her sudden control of the charm was effective, it was not much.

Luo Shuangning and Gu Yunxi reacted quickly.

With Lu Mu standing in front of them and trying their best to deal with the illusion created by Ru Yin, they have been gathering their strength and staying at their peak state, waiting for this moment!

One after the other.

Luo Shuangning condensed the evil spirit and Taoist power into one point, right on the tip of the sword. The ultimate sword force converged on that tiny point, even distorting the space.

Looking closely, Luo Shuangning had mobilized her murderous aura, and even her eyes were dyed an uncontrollable blood red.

She attacked him head-on with simple and unpretentious stabbings. After only four or five breaths, Ruyin's protective qi was pierced. After reaching the Creation Realm, his body was greatly strengthened by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. However, Ruyin could not resist now. No matter how strong his body was, it would still be pierced in the end.

The tip of her sword pierced into Ru Yin's forehead without any suspense.

Gu Yunxi attacked from behind, with the power of blood and fire solidified on the tip of her fist, and her punch hit Ru Yin's heart accurately.

For a moment, no blood splattered.

A low groan like a dying beast came from Ru Yin's throat.

She opened her eyes wide, her eyeballs bulging out, and stared at Lu Mu, as if she wanted to imprint Lu Mu's appearance on her heart.

“You, you…you guys…”

She raised her hands tremblingly, wanting to grab Lu Mu, but she couldn't move. This last struggle before death seemed to be due to some obsession, but no one present would pay attention to the witch's obsession before death.

Ru Yin opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Pfft——!"

Luo Shuangning drew the sword back into the sheath, and a dim red light faintly appeared on the tip of the sword. It was obvious that the Hanyue Sword had once again absorbed enough blood.

Even if it was the blood of an evil cultivator, she would still suck it.

At the same time, Murong Xue also lifted the charm.

It only took a dozen or so breaths, but it consumed more than 90% of her Taoist power. She leaned on Lu Mu's chest, breathing slightly.

"Xiaoxue...thank you for your hard work."

Lu Mu hugged the girl tightly in his arms.

"Brother Mu, you know what? I've wanted to tell you for a long time. I don't care what you were like in the past. From now on, all you have to do is love me."

She murmured, but Lu Mu didn't understand why she said that.

"Did that witch show you something?"

"Well... they are all unimportant."

Murong Xue closed her eyes and planned to take a short rest.

"Your spiritual platform is broken, your internal organs, meridians, and bones are all shattered, yet you are still able to hold on for half a breath. You are really tenacious."

Gu Yunxi tilted her head and looked at Ru Yin, who was not completely dead yet, lying on the ground with lifeless eyes and a pale face. She felt a little surprised and a little pity.

She wanted to give her a quick death.

But my cultivation is not enough. Being able to injure this Eclipse Demon to the point of near death is already the limit. To say that I can kill her instantly is still a bit difficult.

"Haha, it's too late for you to be shocked...haha..."

Ru Yin spoke with difficulty, his tone was intermittent, but every word he said seemed to have exhausted all his life's strength.

Luo Shuangning approached with a cold face: "Too late? To what end?"

"Our goal... has already been achieved... The Emperor has always been ours, you can't save him..."

Ru Yin's pupils shrank slightly for a moment, then returned to calm.

She is dead.

The tragic sneer on that face still bore the deep imprint of the madness of the Eclipse Sun Demon Girl... the madness of the evil cultivator.

But considering the way Ruyin died, it is hard to say whether she felt she died peacefully.

But she couldn't survive.

Luo Shuangning's sword pierced Ru Yin's forehead, destroying his spirit, and his soul naturally died.

Luo Shuangning frowned: "What do you mean?"

"literal meaning."

Murong Xue closed her eyes and whispered, "I saw from her memory... the old emperor was actually not alive from the beginning. It was just that the 'machine core' they placed in the emperor's body mutated him, and a new consciousness took over his body."

From the very beginning, the Xiexin Sect’s plan was not to “resurrect” the old emperor.

However, the mechanical core did have some miraculous effect. After all, the old Emperor Izumo really came back to life and was not a stiff zombie. But the Izumo royal family just didn't expect that it was just another consciousness "taking over the magpie's nest".

After all, the old emperor is at the peak of the Supreme Saint Realm. Even if someone really suspects that there is something wrong with him, what should he do?

He is still too strong.

He was so powerful that after his resurrection, no one questioned that something was wrong with him except for those who were half a step away from the ancient realm.

Lu Mu knew where the "mechanical core" came from, and he also knew what horrible things it could do.

Luo Shuangning was silent for a long time, and finally sighed: "It's really... becoming more and more troublesome."

"We can't deal with that old guy."

Gu Yunxi shook her head.

If it is said that Emperor Yun was possessed by a "new consciousness" and still retained his previous cultivation, even if it was not at its peak, this would be something they could not deal with.

The four of them working together could still deal with a less successful Fate Wheel Realm cultivator who was not good at frontal combat. But if it was someone from the Supreme Saint Realm, no, even just the Hanging Sea Realm, they would not be able to deal with it.

No treasure can make up for this gap.

"...Shuang Ning, Yun Xi, the two of you take Xiao Xue back to Wan Yun City to rest."

Lu Mu touched the ring and said.

The two women were startled.

"What about you?"

Luo Shuangning frowned.

She always felt that Lu Mu was going to do something dangerous.

"Don't worry, I'm just going to give it a try. Even if it doesn't work, I still have a treasure that I can escape with."

Lu Mu touched Luo Shuangning's soft and smooth black hair, turned his head and blinked at Gu Yunxi, "Yunxi, can you help them?"

Gu Yunxi rolled her eyes and said, "Help, be careful."

She turned Murong Xue onto her back, and then, together with Luo Shuangning, who was looking at her reluctantly, they rushed towards Wanyun City.

Lu Mu glanced at Wanyun Mountain, where there was no sense of darkness at all.

There, another "confrontation" that had begun almost at the same time as their confrontation with Ru Yin had ended.

Chapter 49: Erosion

On the Guantian Tower.

The top of the tower trembled, Luo Yingyun's power distorted the night, and the power of the Fierce Eagle Dharma Image was fully released. A phantom of a Fierce Eagle swam across the sky, overlooking the world.

The "bloodthirsty twin souls" had been beaten to death by the Fiery Eagle at this time, but a sharp gust of wind a hundred feet long swept over and swept the blood corpse form condensed by Soul Life and Soul Destruction into the hurricane, tearing it into several pieces.

Luo Yingyun shouted softly.

"Disperse!"

The blood corpse's image exploded into countless scarlet blood mists.

The hurricane dissipated, leaving behind only a bloody storm.

"Master Luo's strength is indeed far beyond our expectations!"

A sinister voice suddenly sounded in the blood mist.
