"What's the point? I came here on my master's wish, yet you guys only beat me up for no reason. You're truly despicable."
Mu Cheng faintly said this the moment the four people stepped forward.
"Nether Talisman, explode."
A voice resounded in the air, full of mockery.
"Hmph, you're hiding your head and showing your tail. If you have the ability, then come out. Do you dare to do so? If you don't dare, then of course I have no objections."
The vice-captain's face was gloomy as he looked at the surroundings. The voice from before was clearly Mu Cheng's, but now, there wasn't even a shadow of Mu Cheng in the surrounding area. This caused his heart to tremble, and an uneasy feeling spread within the vice-captain's heart.
"Since you want me to leave, then I will."
Mu Cheng's voice resounded faintly in the air, as four bolts of lightning simultaneously appeared in the air. The four lightning bolts seemed to have become much thicker.
"Hmph, look at my Netherworld Talisman." The vice-captain looked disdainfully at Mu Cheng as a talisman suddenly appeared in his hand.
"Hehe, you can try, but I don't know if you dare to use it." Mu Cheng's voice echoed in the vice-captain's ears.
As long as the vice-captain made a move, he would immediately shoot it towards the deputy captain. If the lightning charged up, then perhaps the deputy captain's talisman would not even be thrown out before he was done playing with it. The explosive power of the Netherworld Talisman was not small at all.
The scene just now suddenly echoed in the vice-captain's mind. His hand tightened and he extinguished the Netherworld Talisman.
"Hmph, you are ruthless. If you have the ability, come out and put on a false front. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
Although the vice-captain said this, he looked at his surroundings with a serious expression. As he looked at Mu Cheng, who wasn't moving at all, he didn't know why he felt a sense of fear.
"Hmph. You bunch of trash. Four people can't even deal with one person. All of you, back off. Watch me."
Suddenly, a berserk voice could be heard in the ears of the vice-captain and the others. The four of them couldn't help but shiver before slowly retreating backwards.
This captain had a famous bad temper. The four of them had been with the captain for a long time, and when the captain was in a state of rage, even if the Heavenly Emperor himself came, he would still dare to beat him.
"Kid, a mere illusion, do you think you can defeat me?" The captain said arrogantly, with an arrogant expression.
"With just you? I don't care about the four of them, much less you. "
"Today, I am not here to fight with you, but on the orders of Master to come to the morning peak."
Before Mu Cheng could finish speaking, the captain impatiently charged at Mu Cheng.
"Why are you blabbering so much? If you want to go to morning peak, you should defeat me first."
The captain's arrogant voice echoed in the air.
"That's what you said, then don't blame me for being impolite." The corner of Mu Cheng's mouth curled up into a faint smile.
Immediately after, the four Mu Cheng gathered together and a huge bolt of lightning started to roam around Mu Cheng's body.
"Haha, that's more like it. But if you want to go to morning peak, then ask my fist first."
The captain didn't waste time talking with Mu Cheng and closed in on him. This captain was considered a good fighter, but he was actually forced back by Mu Cheng in a direct confrontation. This caused him to hold his breath, and at the same time, agree with Mu Cheng's strength.
"Hmph, I've made up my mind today on this morning peak. I want to see how you're going to stop me."
Mu Cheng's face flashed with a trace of coldness. With a loud shout, he charged towards his opponent.
Below morning peak, the two cultivators were competing in the most primitive form of competition, with one side having the highest morale.
As for the other side, because they had been competing in magic power for so long, they were unable to continue and appeared to be slightly weaker.
The one with the highest morale was Mu Cheng, while the other was the captain of the morning peak's patrol.
There was no patrol in the beginning, but after the Whistling Sky Wolf led his men to ambush the Zongtian Sect, Lv Luo decided to create a patrol inside the morning peak.
The five members of the patrol squad were all part of a group, and were all formed by people from different mountain peaks. Every month, when this strategy was used, there were people who objected, because, after all, this was a matter for all the peak leaders, and every cultivator was busy training, so they could not spare any time. This was also the reason why the Whistling Sky Wolf's sneak attack was successful.
If they had the time, they might as well absorb a lot of spiritual energy. Perhaps they could shine in the next competition and not only get many rewards, they could also enter the eyes of the elders and become their next disciple.
"Stop." As the captain saw Mu Cheng's continuous charge, he suffered quite a bit.
Mu Cheng didn't seem to be able to run out of mana at all. As soon as one strand was gone, another strand was formed in his body.
For a short period of time, this would be alright, but for such a long period of time, the captain had no other options.
However, at such a close distance, it was impossible for him to retreat. If he retreated, he would immediately become defeated.
Therefore, when he saw Mu Cheng attack without hesitation, the captain immediately shouted out. Although he said it, he didn't expect Mu Cheng to actually stop because if he stood on Mu Cheng's position, he definitely wouldn't stop. Mu Cheng was stunned as he saw Mu Cheng beg for mercy, then he paused for a moment and looked at the other party with a puzzled expression.
"Hmph, why didn't you fight?" Mu Cheng questioned him loudly.
Mu Cheng had just started to get heated up, but the other side didn't want to fight. One could imagine how angry Mu Cheng was right now.
"Laozi won't fight with you anymore, you must be awesome. So strong, it seems like you can't use up all of your mana."
The captain speechlessly looked at Mu Cheng before sitting down on the ground.
Seeing the other party's current state, Mu Cheng knew that he might not be able to beat him, so he dispersed the Fa Li on his body.
Mu Cheng didn't feel like he would be unable to use up all of his mana. Instead, it felt like his mana was filled to the brim, allowing him to maintain his peak condition at any time.
Mu Cheng touched his right hand and felt the heat coming from it, he was shocked in his heart, so it turns out that during the battle, the Mysterious Heaven Jade was still continuously sending spiritual energy to Mu Cheng's body, no wonder he could not feel the depletion of his Fa Li at all. Mu Cheng calmly looked at the captain, not saying a word, as though he was waiting for the other party to speak.
"That's enough. You can go up now. I'm convinced that I'll give this spot to you."
"Mu Cheng, I, Yan Wutian, will remember your name. I look forward to the next real duel and at that time, I will not show any mercy."
After resting for a while, the captain finally stood up and spoke to Mu Cheng.
Mu Cheng was startled, but he quickly calmed down. This was just a test of both of them, and a true life and death battle was not only a competition of mana, but also a test of the overall strength of a cultivator. However, Yan Wutian did not use his full strength, and Mu Cheng also did not use his full strength.
"Bring it on, I won't lose to you." Mu Cheng looked at Yan Wutian with excitement.
"Haha, you're quite bold. Let's go up, the person up there is not as easy to talk to as me."
Yan Wutian meaningfully looked at Mu Cheng, then turned around in dejection. No one liked the feeling of being defeated, but they had no choice but to accept the fact that Yan Wutian was no match for Mu Cheng right now.
"Haha, I'll remember you. I'll go up first." Mu Cheng smiled towards Yan Wutian.
Mu Cheng felt good about this straightforward man and nodded before walking towards the morning peak.
"Hey, Mu Cheng, the next person isn't simple at all. He's a sinister person, you'd better be careful."
Not knowing why, Yan Wutian shouted towards Mu Cheng who was about to leave, as a smile appeared on his face.
"Thank you very much." Mu Cheng stopped walking and turned back to say thanks to Yan Wutian.
Mu Cheng didn't waste any more words with Yan Wutian and continued to fly up towards morning peak.
Looking at Mu Cheng's departing figure, a trace of praise flashed past Yan Wutian's eyes, before he shook his head slightly.
With regards to Mu Cheng, who was an unscheming cultivator, Yan Wutian did not have high hopes. In the next round, he would be an extremely sinister cultivator.
"Captain, are we letting him go just like that?" The vice-captain looked at Yan Wutian with unwillingness.
"Hmph, what can you do if you don't let him leave? Do you think you have the strength to make him stay?"
Yan Wutian looked at his vice-captain's displeased face and said coldly. Seeing Yan Wutian's displeased face, the other three immediately walked over and separated the vice-captain and leader. If they started fighting, they would have a good time watching.
This was just a small interlude. To Mu Cheng, it was just a warm-up at the foot of the mountain, so he didn't use his true strength.
"Test? "Then come at me."
Looking at the precipitous cliff wall, Mu Cheng's eyes suddenly lit up and he muttered to himself.
Mu Cheng's bloodthirsty eyes were like that of a hungry wolf, emitting a faint glow. It was especially cold within the forest.
