"Thank you, Brother Li, for your assistance; I am eternally grateful!"
Xiao Mu expressed his gratitude to the newcomer with a joyful expression; this person was Li Jiesheng, a subordinate of Emperor Xuanding, who had once provided information about the Spire to Xiao Mu.
"Li Jiesheng, you have quite the nerve to come here seeking death!"
The town god of Tai Cang recognized Li Jiesheng, casting an unfriendly glance over him.
"Tai Cang, don't widen your bull's eyes too much; you can't scare me."
Li Jiesheng remained unfazed by the threats from the town god of Tai Cang.
"It's my move, but even if the three of you join forces, don't think you can stop the Divine Sovereign's rebirth. Xiao Mu, Li Jiesheng, Yu Wen'en, why don't you give it a try?" The town god of Tai Cang suddenly laughed, appearing relaxed, and gestured invitingly as if to say 'just bring it on.'
"Brother Xiao, how is the situation?" Li Jiesheng suddenly spoke, looking towards Xiao Mu.
Yu Wen'en also looked at Xiao Mu with concern.
"Brother Yu, this is Brother Li Jiesheng, and Brother Li, this is Brother Yu Wen'en. The situation is not very good, gentlemen, do you see the two high platforms in the temple? They are the Life Platform and the Death Platform respectively, providing power to the Life and Death Diagram, protecting the Immortal Rebirth."
Xiao Mu briefly introduced them to each other, and then briefly described the scene inside the temple.
"Who is that girl?" Yu Wen'en looked at Li Jing in the Life and Death Diagram.
"She's a regular person that accidentally ingested the undying blood, and the Heavenly Court is currently extracting the undying blood from her body to facilitate the Immortal Rebirth," Xiao Mu explained quickly and simply.
There wasn't much time, they couldn't afford any further delay.
After observing the people of Tai Cang for a moment, Li Jiesheng turned to Xiao Mu and asked, "What's the deal with Tai Cang and his group, why aren't they coming out to battle us?"
"They are waiting for Immortal Rebirth, relying on it to obliterate us," Xiao Mu explained once again.
"Bah, these damn dogs are cunning enough, we can't let them succeed."
Li Jiesheng cursed fiercely, now focusing on the temple, his eyes flashed with divine light, "For us, the pressing matter is to rush into the temple and destroy the Life and Death Platform to eradicate the undying blood."
"But, if Tai Cang and his crew staunchly defend the temple, given our current relative power, rushing into the temple will be extremely challenging."
While talking, Li Jiesheng furrowed his brows.
Yu Wen'en worriedly said, "They have too many people, even though there are three of us, we are still outmatched in power."
Unable to refrain, Xiao Mu added, "Although there are many outsiders, the real threats are only Tai Cang, Qing Jie, Changsheng, and the lady with the Gray Beard. The rest are too weak to be considered."
"Besides, Brother Yu, Brother Li, I actually have a plan and need the support of both of you."
"Please speak, Brother Xiao," Li Jiesheng and Yu Wen'en both looked at Xiao Mu.
Xiao Mu said, "I have the Creation Axe, which can distort space and change positions; maybe we could use it to raid the temple. Catch Tai Cang off guard, break the Life and Death Platform, and destroy the undying blood."
"Though the Life and Death Platform is sturdy, a combined strike from the three of us should be enough to destroy it."
"Brother Xiao has the Creation Axe?" Yu Wen'en was stunned, gaping in disbelief.
The Creation Axe was a treasure of the Ancient Heavenly Gods, involving supreme power, and it was astonishing that Xiao Mu possessed such an artifact.
"Oh, I forgot that Brother Xiao has the Creation Axe, not a bad strategy, worth a try." Li Jiesheng nodded in agreement.
Xiao Mu nodded back at Yu Wen'en in response, then instructed the two through telepathy to prepare as a white light flashed in his right hand.
After the Creation's White Light was emitted, it suddenly curved, scattering and landing on the three men.
The space around Xiao Mu, Yu Wen'en, and Li Jiesheng suddenly distorted, and the next moment, the scene changed, and their figures appeared inside the temple.
However, before Xiao Mu and the others could rejoice, a white Fu Zhuan suddenly fell from the temple's roof, and the Light of Destiny descended from it, carrying a sacred texture.
A White Line of Destiny spontaneously formed, one end tied to Xiao Mu and his companions, and the other end tied to the position where they initially stood.
As the White Line connecting them to their starting point contracted, the Power of Destiny twisted, and the figures of Xiao Mu and his companions wobbled, the scene changed again, and they were back where they started.
"Brother Xiao, how was the Power of Destiny? Unfortunately, I was too conservative, originally anticipating using the Power of Destiny to hold you back rather than sending you back to the starting point, such a pity, truly a pity!" The town god of Tai Cang gently shook his head and sighed quietly.
"Such a cunning thief!" Yu Wen'en cursed angrily.
"Brother Yu, don't get angry; this only means that they aren't as foolish as we thought," Li Jiesheng comfortingly remarked, then looked again at Xiao Mu, "Brother Xiao, do you have any other plans?"
"We have no choice but to force our way through," Xiao Mu said gravely.
"Three against four, how about I take on Tai Cang?" Li Jiesheng pondered for a moment before speaking.
"Brother Li, you're a match for Tai Cang? Cough cough, sorry, I didn't mean that, are you confident?" Xiao Mu looked at Li Jiesheng.
He was somewhat skeptical about Li Jiesheng's confidence, knowing that although Li Jiesheng was indeed a subordinate of Emperor Xuanding, his Realm and power were somewhat inferior. While he might stand a chance fighting ordinary Divine Spirits, facing a complete authority Divine Spirit like Tai Cang was a disadvantage.
"I have a treasure gifted by the Emperor, which should allow me to fight."
Li Jiesheng pondered for a moment before responding, yet Xiao Mu could hear that his confidence was not too strong.
