Xiao Mu's gaze fell on that clock.
It was clearly a treasured possession of life and death. When used against enemies, the clock would time their fate. Once the clock stopped ticking, so would the enemy's life.
This clock-treasure was undoubtedly extraordinary. Even though Xiao Mu had cultivated the Two Forces of Life and Death, once he was targeted by this clock, he was unable to stop the ebbing away of the life force within his body.
The being facing him was apparently more surprised than Xiao Mu. Staring at Xiao Mu, it exclaimed in astonishment, "Human, you are exceptional, having cultivated the Two Forces of Life and Death. But, in front of me, King Daluo, there is still no chance of survival."
"My strength is beyond your imagination."
"Is that so?"
No matter what Xiao Mu replies, he is also secretly using Life Force to restore his body while observing this creature claiming to be King Daluo, "I have encountered many creatures of your kind, yet none of them have managed to escape from me."
"Blatantly boasting. Who do you think you are? Under my Death-Expediting Clock, you have absolutely no chance of escape."
A strange smile spread across King Daluo's face. His voice sounded extremely peculiar and piercing, as if a sharp cone was harshly thrust against a steel plate.
Glancing around, he commented, "I really don't understand it. Usually, there are only a few guards in this Grand Hall. This time, knowing that the king will appear, why did they send everyone else away, leaving only you to guard?"
"Do they really think you can contend with this king?"
King Daluo sneered, not believing that Xiao Mu could contend with him, and was equally feeling puzzled.
"That's because I alone am enough."
Xiao Mu responded.
Focused on King Daluo.
With the operation of Life force, the effect brought by the Death-Expediting Clock could still be temporarily resisted and it would not cause his death within a short period of time.
Having cultivated the Five Elements Separation Slash, what he perceived was now completely different from others.
At this moment, in his vision, under the power of the Five Elements Separation Slash, all things were decomposed into the purest Five Elements Power, including the King Daluo in front of him.
"Human, you are really ignorant. But, it is also true because you have no idea about the power of this king."
King Daluo looked at Xiao Mu with amusement, shook his head lightly, then suddenly his gaze sharpened, "Enough! Dragging this out is not beneficial to me. Since it is so, you might as well die in advance!"
Then, he made a move, stepping forward and appeared in front of Xiao Mu in an instant, stretching out his hands and then pulling.
A grayish-black line appeared out of thin air and extended from both sides, each end was held by his hands as he slashed towards Xiao Mu.
This grayish-black line separates life and death, permeated with a deep Death Force, slicing through all life traces. As soon as it was pulled open, Xiao Mu's life and death were immediately split apart. Half was life, half was death.
Half of Xiao Mu's body plunged into death, while the other half was brimming with vitality.
However, the half that was dying started to decay rapidly, looking like an ancient corpse that had been buried for many years, completely separating it from his other half.
"No one has ever escaped from this king's Life and Death Line!"
King Daluo's expression was solemn as he arrogantly strode back. In his view, Xiao Mu was effectively a dead man.
Half of his body was already dead, and the other half, even if it was still alive, was meaningless as it would soon die.
Not to mention, he had already pre-emptively locked onto Xiao Mu with the Death-Expediting Clock, continually eroding Xiao Mu's vitality, and destroying the Life Force in Xiao Mu's body.
"That's because you've been facing opponents that are too weak."
Life Force burst forth from Xiao Mu, shielding his body. At the same time, he moved his feet. The Tai Chi Diagram under his feet began to rotate, and the huge black and white Yin Yang Fish emitted a strange brilliance. The next moment, Xiao Mu reappeared on the other side.
With the vibrant life force on him, half of his body experiencing death was temporarily suppressed. Meanwhile, his other half, still filled with vitality, stretching out a palm with all five fingers extended.
These five fingers made five different movements and turned into different colours.
The Five Elements Power interweaved on the five fingers, as though an invisible line connected to King Daluo's body.
"What's going on?"
King Daluo was shocked, as he felt that with the movement of Xiao Mu's five fingers, the Five Elements Power within his body was rapidly draining.
It wasn't just the Five Elements Power draining, but his body was slowly decomposing into the primal Five Elements Power.
However, this decomposition was irreversible. Once decomposed into the Five Elements Power, it could never be restored.
To deal with ordinary Mutated Beings, Xiao Mu could kill them with a single strike, using the Five Elements Separation Slash to convert the opponent into pure Five Elements.
But King Daluo's power was apparently extraordinary, so directly transforming him into the primal Five Elements with one attack wouldn't work. The only option was to disassemble him bit by bit, gradually transforming him into the Five Elements Power.
Fortunately, Xiao Mu, who had cultivated the Five Elements Separation Slash, could clearly observe the flow of the Five Elements Power in King Daluo's body, and the various changes in his body that was composed of the basic Five Elements.
So much so, that he pulled out five lines corresponding to the Five Elements from the opponent's body, using his five fingers to gradually drag out the Five Elements Power from the opponent's body.
The significant loss of the Five Elements Power caused a change in King Daluo's complexion.
As the Five Elements Power drained away, he distinctly felt that his body was becoming ethereal, as if it was gradually disappearing.
This threw him into panic and confusion.
