No hope for eternal life

Chapter 195 Despair

Yang Wuque looked around and found that except Mu Xun and Ji Leyao, no one dared to look him in the eye, and no one came out to support him. Under the threat of death, almost everyone in the palace agreed with Hutiandu's approach.

"Okay!" Yang Wuque laughed angrily and shouted, "I don't care what you do. Let me out. I want to go outside."

Hu Tiandu narrowed his eyes, revealing a dangerous look, and threatened: "I have already said that the formation has been activated and no one is allowed to enter or leave. If you continue to talk nonsense here, don't blame me for being rude."

Yang Wuque wanted to say something else, but Mu Xun grabbed his sleeve.

"Sir, when you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head." Mu Xun advised in a low voice.

Yang Wuque looked at Mu Xun and Ji Leyao beside him, waved his sleeves angrily, but had to give up without saying a word.

On the other side, Mu Changsheng finally arrived at the palace city, but was blocked outside the palace city formation. He was not the only cultivator who was blocked outside the formation.

Even An Xiangnan of the Shenhu Kingdom was blocked outside the formation along with Mu Changsheng.

"Let us in." An Xiangnan roared. He couldn't believe that he was also blocked outside.

In the palace formation, Hu Tiandu responded indifferently: "The formation has been locked and cannot be opened. The only thing you can do is to resist the monsters outside. Maybe there is still a glimmer of hope."

If An Xiangnan's father had not died in the battle just now, Hutian City might have considered letting An Xiangnan and others in. As for now, no one outside was qualified to make him expend the power of the formation to open it.

"You want to use us as cannon fodder? Dream on." An Xiangnan was shaking with anger. He had just received the news that his father had died in battle, and now he was abandoned.

An Xiangnan could see the evil intentions of the Tiandu Guards, so he immediately called out to everyone around him and said, "Follow me, attack the formation, and force the people inside to let us in."

"Looking for death!" Hutiandu's eyes became fierce, and before An Xiangnan could attack the formation, his attack had already landed on An Xiangnan.

"Bang!" An Xiangnan was blown into a bloody mist by Hu Tiandu's casual attack, which frightened everyone. Many people who originally wanted to attack with An Xiangnan immediately became obedient. Hu Tiandu's attack perfectly played a deterrent role.

Afterwards, the people outside the formation did not dare to attack, and could only turn to begging loudly, hoping that Hu Tiandu would be relentless. But Hu Tiandu responded to everyone with only his cold and ruthless eyes.

Mu Changsheng did not beg out loud because he knew it was useless. He began to wander around the outer edge of the formation, trying to find Yang Wuque.

Soon, Mu Changsheng found Yang Wuque as he wished. Yang Wuque was standing at the inner edge of the formation, also looking at Mu Changsheng, his eyes revealing strong apology and regret. He regretted bringing Mu Changsheng to this divine city, and felt deeply guilty for not protecting Mu Changsheng well.

Mu Xun beside Yang Wuque was also looking at Mu Changsheng. At this moment, there was only a formation between the two of them, but it was as if there was a world of difference between them.

Mu Xun opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but didn't know what to say, and finally chose to remain silent.

Ji Leyao beside Mu Xun turned her head away, unable to bear to look directly into Mu Changsheng's eyes. This kind of thing was too cruel for them who were still young.

At the same time, the protective formation of the Divine Guardian City was completely broken. Countless transformed demon cultivators and monster beasts poured into the city and rushed towards the palace city, as if they were determined to slaughter all human cultivators.

Mu Changsheng was exceptionally calm at this time. He bowed solemnly to Yang Wuque and said, "I bid farewell to you, sir, and would like to thank you for your teaching in the past. I feel extremely happy and have no regrets in my journey to this day."

Looking back, Mu Changsheng's fate seemed to have changed since he discovered the gold and silver stone mother mine. But Mu Changsheng always believed that what really changed his fate was the Nine Transformations of the Flesh Body Secret Technique given by Yang Wuque, which ignited his desire to reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao.

It was also because of the secret art of the nine transformations of the physical body that Mu Changsheng was able to stand out in the county examinations, prefecture examinations, and palace examinations, and that led to the subsequent Six Kingdoms Trial and the Gathering of Prodigies.

Yang Wuque was even more grief-stricken when he heard Mu Changsheng's words. He placed his hands tightly on the shield of the formation and said in a deep voice: "Changsheng, don't give up. We humans will surely support you. You must persevere with all your strength."

"Student understands." Mu Changsheng said respectfully. He had never thought of giving up. He said those things to Yang Wuque because he didn't want Yang Wuque to feel too guilty, and it was also to say goodbye in advance for possible death.

"I'm leaving now. I hope you can take care of my parents in the future." Mu Changsheng bowed for the last time and turned to leave. He wanted to escape as much as possible before the demons arrived and delay time.

However, before Mu Changsheng could escape far, he ran into an old enemy, the wolf demon monk who had just been seriously injured by him.

At this time, the wolf demon monk had fully reacted. If Mu Changsheng's talisman could launch a second attack, he would not have been able to escape and would have died long ago.

Therefore, the wolf demon monk had been keeping a close eye on Mu Changsheng, but he learned to be cautious this time. He did not dare to attack Mu Changsheng until the demon army broke through the city defense formation and entered the city.

"Boom boom boom!" The wolf demon monk's attack once again violently smashed into the green light shield on Mu Changsheng's body. Although he was seriously injured, since he was able to withstand the attack of the Shenxiao Talisman, his cultivation must have reached the Spirit Transformation Realm. With the huge gap in cultivation, Mu Changsheng had no power to resist at all and could only rely on the Green God Talisman to resist the attack of the wolf demon monk.

Mu Changsheng did not continue to run away, because there was no point in running away at this moment, but he did not give up either. He used two elixir-summoning talismans and the blood and qi transformation secret technique, and then punched continuously to fight against the attacks of the wolf demon monk.

Even though he knew that there was a huge gap in cultivation level, Mu Changsheng kept punching, trying to consume some of the wolf demon cultivator's attack power in order to help Qing Shen Fu last longer.

Inside the palace formation, Yang Wuque could clearly see Mu Changsheng being attacked by the wolf demon monk. He wished he was the one outside. If Mu Xun hadn't held his sleeve tightly, he probably wouldn't have been able to resist punching directly and attacking the palace formation in front of him.

Soon, Mu Changsheng's magic power was exhausted, and the essence and blood in his body had burned to a very dangerous amount. He was no longer able to fight against the wolf demon monk. He could only watch as the wolf demon monk continued to attack Qingshen Fu.

"Crack, crack, crack!" Cracks began to appear on the light shield of the Green God Talisman on Mu Changsheng's body. Needless to say, it was known that the Green God Talisman could not last much longer.

Yang Wuque closed his eyes in despair, then opened them wide again and roared to the sky: "Why hasn't anyone come to support us yet?"

Yang Wuque's roar seemed to be responded to. Three comet-like figures fell from the sky and smashed heavily into the vanguard of the demon army, raising countless smoke and dust. It was unknown how many demon beasts and demon cultivators were killed.

Immediately afterwards, endless sword lights appeared out of nowhere, accurately striking every demon that was attacking the human cultivators.

The wolf demon monk who was attacking Mu Changsheng was not spared either. With just a flash of sword light, the wolf demon monk in the Spirit Transformation Realm was split in half from head to toe. Without any struggle, he died instantly!

"Saved!" Mu Changsheng collapsed to the ground exhausted. He understood that it must be the support from the powerful human beings who had arrived.
