Chapter 601: Mu Qi's death, Dao Guo, and help
The sudden gust of wind concealed murderous intent, and the two were suspicious of each other, ready to fight at any moment. But Hong Qian was full of rage, and he rushed forward to kill first. His body turned from old to young, and when he threw a punch, the trees tilted and bent wherever his fist reached.
Mu Shu and Mu Qi knew that their deeds were exposed. They thought that Hong Qian might have great magical powers and figured out the way they communicated with each other. Or maybe Mu Qi was malicious and wanted to persecute them. Everything was possible. She had to be wary of both her teammates and her opponents. She thought and weighed everything, but it was just a passing thought. When the fist wind came at her head, she had already responded. She flicked her hand lightly, and the breeze blew. She flew up to the sky like a flying red leaf.
Mu Qi was not good at fighting, but he was not completely powerless. Seeing that the situation was difficult to resolve, he held a black chess piece and placed it on the "Heaven and Earth" chessboard. However, Hong Qian suddenly froze, and the space around him seemed to be frozen.
Hong Qian was furious, thinking: "These two are too abominable. Not only did they not save me, but they also tried to trick me into death. No one is willing to save my life, so I must die here. When I die, I must take these two people with me!"
Thinking of this, his body shook lightly, and the invisible shackles broke in an instant. He took another deep breath, and countless air waves gathered towards his mouth and nose. Mu Shu, who had just been blown up into the sky by the wind, was also sucked down and fell towards Hong Qianluo uncontrollably.
Mu Shu didn't want to face Hong Qian alone. Although she despised this reckless man, she felt a headache when facing him alone. She suppressed her nausea and said to Mu Qi, "This villain is too murderous. Let's join forces."
Mu Qi agreed on the surface but sneered in his heart. His spiritual energy surged and flowed through his fingertips, transforming into a white chess piece. He dropped the piece into the air, and the heaven and earth shook instantly. Hong Qian was again entangled and imprisoned by the invisible energy like before, and could not move at all.
Although Hong Qianren was reckless, he had fought in countless battles in his life, so how could he be unprepared? He was restrained and Mu Shu took advantage of the situation. Seeing that he was in danger, he sneered, and the air he had just inhaled into his abdomen was compressed to the size of a tooth, and then he spat it out.
This move was so lethal that it made people tremble. If it touched them even a little, there would be no trace left of the body. Mu Shu had been prepared and was about to use magic to escape, but she didn't expect that the next moment, it would be her turn to be fixed in the air, unable to move. She could only see the rapid airflow coming towards her, and blood gradually seeped out of her pores.
Even in such a critical situation, Mu Shu still remained calm, thinking: "Mu Qi has great intentions to harm me. He is the one who brought this disaster upon me. He must have guessed that I have resentment in my heart, so he would not help me wholeheartedly. He must want me to die here. How can I let him have his wish?"
The next moment, the figures changed, and Mu Shu and Mu Qi exchanged positions. The dangerous situation was reversed in an instant. Mu Qi, who had been leisurely planning, fell into a dangerous situation, facing the violent airflow exhaled by Hong Qian.
Moreover, Mu Shu's timing was perfect, not too early or too late, so Mu Qi had no time to react and had to take the blow. He was covered in blood and looked horrible, almost turning into a bloody man.
Mu Shu's expression gradually turned cold. If she had not been on guard in advance and knew the key points of Mu Qi's "World in Chess" technique and had put it into practice, she would have been covered in blood at that moment, and her life or death would have been unknown.
Mu Qi created his own magic, and the world in his chess seems to be exquisite, and he plays with the world in the palm of his hand. At first glance, it can even be compared with hundreds of unique magics.
However, it was not included in the list of the hundred unique techniques. The reason for this was that it had a fatal flaw, but Mu Qi hid it well and rarely used it against the enemy. Although outsiders did not know it, it was not that Mu Shu did not know it. As for how he knew it, we will not discuss it for now.
The world in chess regards the world as a chessboard, and Muqi is the chess player. However, since the world is regarded as a chessboard, Muqi can hold the chess pieces, and so can others. As long as they master the secret of this technique, they can play tricks and influence others.
If Mu Qi uses magic to lay out the chess game and is a chess player in the open, then Mu Shu is a chess player in the dark, using the chess game laid out by Mu Qi to place his own chess pieces secretly.
Mu Qi is slightly inferior after all. If Shu and Qi had competed fairly, perhaps they would not have suffered such a crushing defeat. Although Mu Shu is very intelligent, Mu Qi's superb strategies can make up for his shortcomings, so they should be evenly matched.
However, Mu Shu knew much more than Mu Qi, and had been exposed to the secrets of the Mu family. The information between the two was unequal, so it was not unfair for Mu Qi to lose.
But seeing Mu Qi covered in blood and severely injured, and seeing Hong Qian punching him, he felt gloomy in his heart, wondering why Mu Shu could know the secrets of the world in chess. He hurriedly controlled his spiritual energy to resist, but Hong Qian had already come to him, and everything was over. As the breath of death approached, he became more confused, wondering why Mu Shu knew the secrets of the world in chess.
Suddenly, he thought of something, his eyes widened, and he figured it out in an instant. He laughed miserably, and then he heard a "bang" and his chest was pierced by Hong Qian's punch.
Hong Qian was still furious, thinking, "You dare to plot against me? I'll make you feel the pain of having your heart pierced through." He then clenched his right fist and shook it, and Mu Qi's chest turned into a blood mist. A generation of genius died in this way. For those who practice cultivation, it is difficult to distinguish between good and bad. When Mu Qi was dying, he only felt that he had lost a move in chess, and he did not feel any hatred.
He glanced at Mu Shu and slowly closed his eyes. If possible, he would like to see how Mu Shu, known as the "witch", would deal with this situation.
After killing Mu Qi, Hong Qian's momentum did not diminish. In fact, there is a difference between physical cultivators and ordinary cultivators, and they cannot be generalized. Physical cultivators have strong bodies, and they mainly consume physical strength in battles, supplemented by spiritual energy. Although they also know magic, they rarely use it. Now that all magics are exhausted, ordinary cultivators will exhaust their spiritual energy and die of lifespan while fighting, but physical cultivators will die of exhaustion first, and perhaps they will still have some spiritual energy left when they die.
It is not easy for physical cultivators to recover their strength, or even impossible to recover, so they also seal their spirit, body, and soul like ordinary cultivators to seek perfection. In this world of no spirits and no magic, it is hard to say which one is better.
Hong Qian let go of his murderous intent, but he had actually run out of strength. However, as he risked his life and was furious, he was able to rely on his willpower to muster up a bit of strength.
Physical cultivators and ordinary cultivators each have their own characteristics, but it is undeniable that they all gradually perished and disappeared in this world where all laws and spirits were abolished.
Mu Qi died, but Mu Shu's situation did not get better. Hong Qian raised his fist and rushed forward again. The two fought for hundreds of moves. Mu Shu knew that Hong Qian did not have much strength left, but she really did not want to waste any more energy. She had already lost a lot of spiritual energy and lifespan due to the unexpected misfortune today. Even if she killed Hong Qian in the end, it would not be any good for her.
Mu Shu's mind raced, "Hong Qian was full of murderous intent, and he killed Mu Qi. I don't think the two of them worked together to kill me. There must be someone behind this."
"It must be the man in white beside Senior Sister... otherwise, given Senior Sister's personality, if Hong Qian had come to cause trouble for Senior Sister, he would have been killed on the spot."
Mu Shu used magic to push Hong Qian away and fled everywhere, thinking all kinds of things in his mind, but Hong Qian chased him relentlessly and was already bloodthirsty. He was determined to take Mu Shu with him no matter what.
Seeing this, Mu Shu was anxious. If she didn't deal with Hong Qian, she would be doomed. In a panic, she tried her best to save the situation. She raised her spiritual energy and shouted loudly, "Senior Sister, help me!"
The voice echoed, but no one responded.
Mu Shu said again: "Daoguo! I know where your Daoguo is! Senior sister, help me!"
However, there was still no response, and because of the two shouts, she slowed down a little, so Hong Qian caught up with her and grabbed her right ankle with one hand, hooking it like an iron hook.
Mu Shu's face turned pale instantly.
