Chapter 251: Tying You Up

~8 min read 1,450 words

The force of the explosion lasted for a full twenty-some breaths before it began to gradually weaken, finally subsiding completely.

As the rampaging explosive force vanished, a water sphere about ten zhang in diameter appeared.

The water sphere was formed from continuously flowing water, with snakes of lightning leaping out from it from time to time; it was precisely the defensive measure Mu Lingxi had condensed using her Triple Dao Domain.

At this moment.

The originally intact water sphere was now riddled with holes, faintly revealing the four figures hidden within.

Mu Lingxi's complexion was somewhat pale at this moment.

With a wave of her palm, the water sphere dissipated.

The four figures were revealed once more between heaven and earth.

"Lingxi, are you alright?"

Wang Yu Yao, Su Yutong, and Xing Li looked at Mu Lingxi, their expressions filled with worry.

Within the Dao Domain, Mu Lingxi could shift herself in a single thought.

She could have avoided this explosive force without a scratch.

But if she had done so.

They would have been swallowed by the explosive force and likely perished within it.

In order to save them.

Mu Lingxi chose to withstand the explosive force head-on.

And because of this, she suffered injuries.

"It is nothing."

Mu Lingxi shook her head, looked up at the Great Star Envoy, her gaze filled with extreme provocation.

It was as if she were saying, you aren't much yourself.

At the same time, she calmly sent a secret voice transmission to the three of them, "This Great Star Envoy is a bit strong; hurry and slip away."

"Then what about you?"

Wang Yu Yao asked worriedly via voice transmission.

While staring provocatively at the Great Star Envoy, Mu Lingxi calmly sent a voice transmission to the three.

"I will hold her off."

"Rest assured, if it is only to hold her off for a moment, I am still capable of doing that."

"The only difficulty is that we cannot let her calculate our location again."

Hearing Mu Lingxi's voice transmission, a flash of hesitation crossed Xing Li's eyes, then she secretly gritted her teeth, "I have a way to obscure the heavenly secrets so she cannot calculate our position."

"Good, since that is the case, it is settled."

"You all escape first."

After Mu Lingxi finished her transmission, her body slowly rose into the air, reaching the same height as the Great Star Envoy.

Seeing this scene.

Wang Yu Yao and the others no longer hesitated; they turned and shot away.

Seeing this, the Great Star Envoy looked indifferently at Mu Lingxi, "You block me to let them escape—is this your plan?"

"Are you not afraid of dying here?"

Mu Lingxi curled her lip, "This lady has never been afraid when fighting others; if you have the ability, kill me."

The Great Star Envoy's expression turned cold.

She lifted a flawless jade foot, completely unadorned, and stepped into the void.

A vast amount of silver patterns spread out from her as the center along the void, turning in the blink of an eye into a massive Star Chart that shrouded an area of over a thousand zhang in diameter.

Mu Lingxi looked at the Star Chart beneath her feet, secretly on guard.

She then looked at the Great Star Envoy's feet, her red lips curling slightly, "Use whatever methods you have; if you cannot kill me today, one day I will surely tie you up and present you to Senior Brother."

"You seek death!"

Mu Lingxi's words made it impossible for the Great Star Envoy to remain indifferent any longer.

A flash of shame and anger crossed her eyes.

She lifted her jade foot and stepped down lightly once more.

The Star Chart suddenly erupted with intense light.

Illusory stars appeared from the air, filling the void.

Seeing this, Mu Lingxi's face showed caution.

At the same time, rays of light suddenly shot out from these stars.

The rays crisscrossed, enveloping Mu Lingxi like a giant net.

Seeing this.

Mu Lingxi pointed her finger forward.

An Ice Mirror instantly condensed and hovered above her head.

Within the mirror, the giant net descending from the sky was reflected.

She reached out and pointed at the mirror.

A wave of Destruction Power instantly spread out from the mirror.

The next moment, endless lightning instantly shrouded the world within the mirror.

The giant net reflected in the mirror was immediately submerged by the sea of lightning and annihilated into nothingness.

At the same time.

The giant net in the real world collapsed instantly without warning.

After annihilating the great net, Mu Lingxi pointed at the mirror's surface.

The mirror turned.

It reflected the figure of the Great Star Envoy within it.

The Great Star Envoy's gaze tightened, and she prepared to dodge.

Mu Lingxi's future self pointed a finger at the mirror.

Inside the mirror world, the power of wind condensed, transforming into a whirlwind that firmly bound the Great Star Envoy's reflection.

The Great Star Envoy felt her body tighten, and for a moment, she was unable to move.

She let out a cold snort.

The terrifying cultivation base belonging to the Nascent Soul Stage erupted in full.

Brilliant starlight flared up, directly breaking free from the invisible bindings on her body.

Mu Lingxi's future self suffered a backlash.

She let out a muffled groan, retreated several steps, and a trail of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

Mu Lingxi did not feel surprised.

Taking advantage of this moment, the mirror turned again, reflecting the Star Chart beneath her feet into the mirror.

She did not choose to raise the mirror to reflect the entire Star Chart.

The power of this Star Chart was too strong; she was not confident she could shatter it.

But if it were only a portion, her confidence was much greater.

The future self and the original body pressed their palms onto the mirror at the same time.

A single syllable was spat out from the red lips of both figures simultaneously.

"Shatter!"

The next moment.

The mirror shattered instantly.

At the same time, that portion of the Star Chart reflected in the mirror world also crumbled along with it.

The area of the Star Chart that crumbled was not large, only about three zhang in diameter, and it was being repaired at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Seeing this, Mu Lingxi rushed out of the cave entrance without hesitation, then shot away at an astonishing speed.

When the Great Star Envoy restrained her power and looked over, Mu Lingxi had already escaped.

Her gaze sank.

She waved her palm.

The Star Chart dissipated, turning into countless silver light spots, which she absorbed into her body.

She looked in the direction Mu Lingxi had fled.

Her Spirit Sense spread out, and she soon locked onto that figure over ten miles away.

She took a step, and the space beneath her feet rippled like water waves.

Then, her figure flashed and disappeared.

The next moment, when she stepped out from the void of space, she had already appeared over ten miles away.

The suddenly appearing figure did not make Mu Lingxi feel surprised.

For almost all Cultivators at the Golden Core Stage, the Instant Movement of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator is nearly unsolvable.

But she was an exception.

Her Wind Dao Domain had long since spread out in a straight line.

The instant the Great Star Envoy appeared via Instant Movement.

She first condensed her Domain Power and threw a punch, shaking the space, and then with a thought, she disappeared.

When she appeared again, she was already over ten miles away.

Within her Dao Domain, she could likewise move instantly to any position.

Wherever the Dao Domain reached, she could arrive in an instant.

The effect was no different from Instant Movement.

Moreover, there was one point where the Dao Domain was even stronger than Instant Movement.

That was that during battle, the Dao Domain's instant movement was not affected.

But Instant Movement was not.

A Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator could barely mobilize a sliver of Space Power.

Moving instantly under conditions of spatial turbulence made it very easy to get lost in the void.

Therefore, one must be in an environment where Space Power is stable to perform Instant Movement.

At this moment, the Great Star Envoy was facing this predicament.

Mu Lingxi was too cunning.

Before leaving, she had deliberately shaken the space.

Although her Spirit Sense had already locked onto Mu Lingxi's position again, she could not pursue with Instant Movement and could only watch helplessly as Mu Lingxi's figure flickered continuously, eventually escaping her range of Spiritual Power perception.
