"Humans, you cannot kill me, cannot kill me."

The head fell to the ground. King Daluo's eyes widened, and he bawled at Xiao Mu.

The Life Force oozed out of his severed neck, taking the form of thick white mist, gushing outward as if from a fountain.

Simultaneously, the fallen head flew up suddenly, intending to return to his neck.

Even if the heads of the Mutated Beings who have cultivated the Power of Life and Death are chopped off, they won't die. Their whole body has no weaknesses anymore.

At that moment, King Daluo intended to reattach his head and achieve rebirth.

But Xiao Mu clearly had no intentions of giving King Daluo any chance.

"Even at death's door, you dream. Let's see if I can kill you or not."

Xiao Mu took a step forward, the giant 3-D Tai Chi Yin-Yang Diagram once again spread out beneath his feet, raising Xiao Mu aloft with the flickering Yin-Yang fishes before slamming towards the ground, and the next instant, it was above King Daluo's head.

Xiao Mu stomped down heavily with his right foot.

Ka-la!

King Daluo's head was shattered like a watermelon, crushed under Xiao Mu's foot.

"Humans, you dare to shatter my skull..."

A voice from inside King Daluo's body emerged, radiating with anger and terror; he suddenly turned his headless body, ready to run again.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

The Yin Diagram, imbued with Chaos-like Power, flew from Xiao Mu's hand, slashing across King Daluo's body again and again.

Each slash caused enormous damage which greatly reduced King Daluo's vitality, diminishing the Life Force within him.

Xiao Mu's hands didn't stop; his ten fingers each grabbed hold of the lines of Five Elements on King Daluo's body, pulling them outward.

King Daluo's body slowly faded away and finally disappeared completely.

Power +60.

"Phew!"

After killing King Daluo, Xiao Mu finally heaved a deep sigh of relief.

King Daluo's power exceeded his expectations and almost capsized him.

Fortunately, he had the help of the Ghoul Servant, who had cultivated the Scripture of God Transformation. Otherwise, even though he had cultivated Chaos-like Power, the Two Forces of Life and Death, and even recently mastered the Five Elements Separation Slash and Tai Chi Steps, he might not have been able to defeat King Daluo and might even have been killed by him.

Ding!

With the death of King Daluo, and as his body disappeared, the Death-Expediting Clock he held fell to the ground with a loud thud.

Seeing the Death-Expediting Clock, Xiao Mu couldn't help but feel elated.

This strange treasure of life and death was enormously powerful. For him, who had cultivated the Two Forces of Life and Death, it was custom-made.

He went over, bent down and picked it up.

The surface of the Death-Expediting Clock was covered with the Two Forces of Life and Death. As soon as Xiao Mu touched it, he felt its impact. His body began to age slowly.

But he didn't care. The Chaotic True Seed circulated a little, and the Power of Life and Death spread all over his palm, blocking the Two Forces emanating from the surface of the Clock.

"Amazing!"

The unique ability of the Death-Expediting Clock astonished Xiao Mu.

Not only is this strange treasure powerful, but it also chooses its wielder.

The Mutated Beings who haven't cultivated the Power of Life and Death can't even touch it, let alone control it. Under the influence of life and death forces on the clock's surface, they'll soon die from exhaustion of their life force.

Xiao Mu, who had cultivated the Power of Life and Death, was an exception. After fiddling with the clock for a while, he quickly grasped its usage.

Delighted, he kept the Death-Expediting Clock and inspected the ground again.

King Daluo didn't leave any other items behind, and even his body had been transmuted into pure Five Elements Power by Xiao Mu, conspicuously obliterated.

"What a waste."

Xiao Mu shook his head regretfully.

King Daluo was a pity, too strong and too dangerous, which made him lose control. Otherwise, King Daluo would have at least one or two treasures on him, or at the very least, some energy fruits. But, everything had been turned into pure Five Elements Power along with King Daluo.

Lifting his head, Xiao Mu cautiously reexamined the Ancient Palace, in case King Daluo had any accomplices.

The kind of Chaos True Seed rotated, and the Life Force flowed out, gradually replenishing his body, and Xiao Mu's body slowly returned to normal.

King Daluo should have come alone because when Xiao Mu thoroughly inspected the Ancient Palace, he didn't find any of his companions.

Instead, the mural where King Daluo had appeared restored its original appearance.

The temple stood tall, radiating divine light.

The divine being in feather robes stood outside the temple, benignly nodding at Xiao Mu with a smile on his face.

This scene made Xiao Mu's heart tighten, and he became tense instantly.

He was well aware of the peril the divine being in the mural posed..... he hastily turned away and dared not look at the mural again.

However, he couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

How could the powerful divine being in feather robes in the mural let King Daluo come out through it?

But, for this question, Xiao Mu evidently had no answer.

He continued to stay vigilant in the Ancient Palace, patrolling and observing to avoid abnormalities.

Fortunately, there were no abnormalities in the latter half of the night, nor any appearances of beings as strange as King Daluo.

Finally, daylight came.

At around six o'clock, before the shift rotation, Jiang Mu appeared in the Ancient Palace.

Seeing that Xiao Mu was unscathed, he was shocked.

Staring at Xiao Mu in disbelief and anger, he said, "You're actually still alive!"

"Hehe! I've disappointed you!"

Xiao Mu sneered in response. For someone who plotted against him openly, he never bore good words.

If he weren't weaker than Jiang Mu and if they weren't in the Song Relics, he wouldn't engage with him at all. He would kill Jiang Mu first using his power.
