Wu Yang is fake, just an illusion condensed by the Power of Destiny. Everything was just Retribution and the scheming of the Lord of the Nether River; Senior Zhou was deceived.
Xiao Mu's heart sank sharply, and his right hand reached into the Earth Seal Space immediately to retrieve the Creation Axe.
A grayish-white brilliance appeared above his head, forming a ring that enveloped Xiao Mu from below. The Power of Destiny flowed violently within the ring. Xiao Mu's hand, which had just reached into the Earth Seal Space, was pulled out again, as if time had reversed, back to before he had reached his hand into the Earth Seal Space.
Then, Xiao Mu reached into the Earth Seal Space again, but under the flow of the Power of Destiny, his hand was returned to the starting point once again.
Over and over again…
The Divine Monarch of Retribution and the Lord of the Nether River watched Xiao Mu calmly, no one stopping him, yet their eyes were full of mocking intent.
The Divine Monarch of Retribution sneered at Xiao Mu, "Xiao Mu, do you think, knowing that you possess the Creation Axe, I and the Nether would not take any precautions?"
"Xiao Xiao, how are you now?" Zhou Xuanmen conveyed his concerned voice to Xiao Mu through Divine Sense.
Sweat dripped from Xiao Mu's forehead due to anxiety. Using Divine Sense, he responded to Zhou Xuanmen, "Senior Zhou, I am bound by the Power of Destiny and can't use the Creation Axe."
The Lord of the Nether River, with hands clasped behind, leisurely looked at Zhou Xuanmen and Xiao Mu, "When a rabid dog bites a man, the man does not bite back, but he would use a stick to kill the dog."
"Zhou Xuanmen, we were only after you, and yet you also brought Xiao Mu, very good. Emperor Taija has been seeking Xiao Mu for a long time, and you've just delivered him to us."
The Divine Monarch of Retribution was self-satisfied and mocked Zhou Xuanmen, "Zhou Xuanmen, why aren't you cursing anymore? Aren't you usually very good at it? Unfortunately, even if a weak one curses all they want, they ultimately can't escape being stepped on by the stronger."
Zhou Xuanmen did not respond, letting the Divine Monarch of Retribution ridicule him, his gaze intense elsewhere, seemingly contemplating a way out.
The Power of Destiny revolved around Xiao Mu, and after failing to retrieve the Creation Axe more than a dozen times, he sensibly stopped.
Nevertheless, Xiao Mu did not lose heart. With a single thought, he communicated with the Seal of the Heavenly Emperor and planned to stir Emperor's Might.
The Emperor's Might is supreme, capable of overwhelming even the Power of Destiny. He planned to use the power of the Heavenly Emperor to break free from the shackles of Destiny, and escape with Zhou Xuanmen using the Power of Creation.
Supreme Intention radiated from within Xiao Mu, bright golden glow flew out of his body.
"I almost forgot, Xiao Mu, you have an artifact of the Heavenly Emperor."
The activation of the Emperor's Might caught the attention of the Divine Monarch of Retribution and the Lord of the Nether River, both of whom turned their heads towards Xiao Mu.
The Lord of the Nether River's face wore a sneer, and he simply crushed a Destiny Talisman with his hand.
A grayish-white ring fell from above Xiao Mu, fitting directly over him, instantly suppressing the just-released trace of Emperor's Might back inside Xiao Mu.
The Emperor's Might is supreme, but unfortunately, Xiao Mu's current Realm is too low, limiting the force he could exhibit, not comparing to the Power of Destiny shown by the Lord of the Nether River.
The Lord of the Nether River manipulated the Power of Destiny using the Destiny Talisman, directly suppressing the Emperor's Might back into Xiao Mu's body.
A tremendous oppressive force came forth; the powers of Reincarnation and Retribution swept up from the ground like a super tornado, and both the Lord of the Nether River and the Divine Monarch of Retribution suddenly emanated an intense murderous aura.
The two took large strides forward, advancing towards Xiao Mu and Zhou Xuanmen on a cloud mist.
The Illusions of the Reincarnation Seal and the Retribution Lamp appeared above their heads, the Divine Monarch of Retribution's voice transformed into thunder, his voice as wildly booming as thunder, seeming like it could disperse everything, "Zhou Xuanmen, your time to die has come, please proceed!"
The Lord of the Nether River pointed a finger, and a River of Netherworld descended from the sky, lying behind Zhou Xuanmen. This River of Netherworld was so vast and wide, seemingly stirring the mountains and rivers, emitting an extremely cold aura that froze nearby things, his voice filled with a deadly intent echoing the Divine Monarch of Retribution, almost as if announcing death, "Zhou Xuanmen, please proceed!"
"Senior Zhou, I don't mind if you leave me behind and escape alone."
Xiao Mu shouted loudly at Zhou Xuanmen, seemingly urging Zhou Xuanmen to escape alone, but secretly communicated with Zhou Xuanmen using Divine Sense, "Senior Zhou, in my Storage Space, I have an All-Worlds Communication Talisman given to me by Divine Monarch Miaoyi. Just retrieving the talisman, I can ask for help from Divine Monarch Miaoyi."
Currently, Divine Monarch Miaoyi is Xiao Mu's last hope. As long as he can retrieve the talisman and get in touch with Divine Monarch Miaoyi, with the capabilities of Divine Monarch Miaoyi, he would likely reach the Human World in a flash, aiding both him and Zhou Xuanmen.
The All-Worlds Communication Talisman is Xiao Mu's last hope, to be used only once, and unless facing absolute peril, he would never opt to use it.
Now was indeed a moment of absolute peril.
"Escape? None of you will escape."
The Divine Monarch of Retribution heard Xiao Mu's shout and immediately started mocking loudly.
"If it were so easy for you to escape, what would be the point of the meticulously set trap by myself and the nether?" The Lord of the Nether River said coldly, not caring at all about what Xiao Mu had said.
Zhou Xuanmen turned around, his gaze focusing anew on the Divine Monarch of Retribution and the Lord of the Nether River, first turning towards Xiao Mu and giving a slight smile, his expression still filled with calm, "Xiao Xiao, don't worry, our situation isn't as desperate as you think."
