No hope for eternal life

Chapter 129 Final Ranking

When Mu Xun discovered Feng Li's attack, his heart immediately sank, knowing that the most dangerous moment was coming. With Feng Li's strength, he would need to use all his strength to block a single sword strike. Moreover, he did not have a body as strong as Mu Changsheng's that could withstand the attack.

So, Mu Xun used the two powerful secret techniques of Return to the Earth and Return to the Heaven at the same time, and then slashed with his sword with all his strength, barely blocking Feng Li's sword attack.

Afterwards, Feng Li continued to attack Muxun, as if he would not stop until he knocked Muxun off the mountain.

Mu Changsheng, who was below, saw the fight between Feng Li and Mu Xun, and his expression changed. He knew the difference in strength between Mu Xun and Feng Li, and said in his heart, "Not good."

Then, Mu Changsheng took out three Fire Talismans and was about to attack Feng Li, but when the Fire Talismans were about to be activated, Mu Changsheng hesitated again.

Feng Li is the apple of the eye of the King of the Shinfeng Kingdom. He has already secured his place in the top three. There is no need for him to fight with Feng Li. If he does, wouldn't that be offending others?

But after a moment's hesitation, Mu Changsheng decisively chose to take action, and three Lihuo Talismans attacked Feng Li.

At the same time, Mu Changsheng shouted: "Mu Xun, you reach the top first, I will hold her back."

If Mu Xun had not given the Sheling Fruit to him in Nansha City, Mu Changsheng would have hesitated, hesitated, and hesitated again. But now, Mu Changsheng was afraid that he would hesitate too long, causing Mu Xun to be defeated and fall off the mountain.

Outside of Mishan, all the civil and military officials who were watching the battle were dumbfounded. They obviously did not expect that Mu Changsheng would dare to attack Feng Li.

However, at this moment, an inappropriate laugh rang out from the banquet: "Hahaha..."

Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the person who was laughing was actually Xiao Jingshan from Lingshan Sect. Then, everyone saw Feng Ze's slightly blackened face. They were so scared that they turned around, sat upright, and remained silent, not daring to make a sound.

It turned out that Xiao Jingshan had long noticed the extraordinary relationship between Mu Changsheng and Mu Xun, so he anticipated that Mu Changsheng would most likely take action. Now that he saw that his wish had come true, he naturally smiled.

After laughing, Xiao Jingshan solemnly said to Feng Ze: "Lord Feng, I have a request. As the saying goes, ignorance is not blame. Those two teenagers did not know about the agreement between us. I hope that you will not blame them for this matter."

Feng Ze's expression returned to normal. He did not transmit his voice but spoke directly: "Fellow Daoist Xiao, you are too kind. I am not so narrow-minded. I will never embarrass these two juniors because of such a small matter."

Xiao Jingshan nodded slightly. Feng Ze had already made his attitude clear by saying it directly. It was impossible for him to go back on his word, otherwise it would be a slap in his face.

Afterwards, Feng Ze sighed and said: "I really underestimated these little guys."

Originally, Feng Li had a very high chance of getting first place, but Song Zhi, Mu Xun, and Mu Changsheng showed up one after another, which surprised Feng Ze. At the same time, he accepted it and decided to just accept it as fate.

"Talented people emerge in every generation." Xiao Jingshan echoed.

At the top of the mysterious mountain, Mu Xun was climbing with all his might. While he was moved by Mu Changsheng's help, he also knew that Mu Changsheng could not completely hold Feng Li back. He had to reach the top as soon as possible and end this competition.

At this time, Mu Xun was less than ten feet away from the top of the mountain. However, the higher he climbed, the more terrifying the pressure became. Even with the help of spiritual herbs and fruits, the pressure remained extremely strong, and Mu Xun could only move up little by little.

Feng Li was a little confused at the moment. She couldn't understand why Mu Changsheng would attack her and how he dared to attack her!

Seeing the distance between himself and Mu Xun widening, Feng Li became more and more anxious, and then, Feng Li said to Mu Changsheng: "Since you like to meddle in other people's business so much, I will beat you down the mountain first."

Before she finished her words, Feng Li had already made her move. Although her strength was suppressed by the rules of the Mishan Mountain, it was still terrifying. At this time, she even used some means to temporarily improve her cultivation strength.

Feng Li's whole body was filled with sword intent, and he slashed with his sword with all his might. A deep purple sword energy swept towards Mu Changsheng with great momentum.

Seeing this, Mu Changsheng did not dare to underestimate the enemy at all. If he was really beaten down the mountain, all his previous efforts would be in vain.

Therefore, Mu Changsheng made two preparations at the same time. With one hand, he scattered five Fire Talismans to block Feng Li's sword attack, and with the other hand, he used two Spirit Summoning Talismans to enhance his own foundation.

Although I don't know the exact time now, but roughly speaking, it should be almost an hour before the end of the competition, so there is no need to worry that the two summoning talismans will not last long enough.

In the air, five Lihuo Talismans transformed into white fire dragons collided with Feng Li's sword energy, but the white fire dragons were like pieces of paper and were easily torn apart by the sword energy.

Afterwards, the sword energy was reduced in size by half, but it still attacked Mu Changsheng at the same speed.

Mu Changsheng felt disheartened upon seeing this and could only throw out five Fire Talismans again to block the sword attack.

After another five Fire Talismans, the terrifying sword energy was finally offset.

Feng Li's face was stern. After she released the first sword energy, she had been brewing the second sword energy. Now it was already brewing, and another powerful sword energy was slashed out.

Mu Changsheng knew the difference in strength between the two and did not dare to confront the sword energy head-on, so he could only use the same trick again and used five Lihuo Talismans to block it.

Just when Mu Changsheng was about to take out five more Lihuo Talismans, his expression suddenly changed. The storage bag containing the Lihuo Talismans was empty. He had used up all the Lihuo Talismans. The five he had just used were the last five!

Although Mu Changsheng still had a lot of golden arrow talismans, in front of the sword energy, the golden arrow talismans were no match for it, and could not stop the sword energy at all.

Therefore, Mu Changsheng could only bite the bullet and punch to meet the remaining half of the sword energy.

After the strike, Mu Changsheng's fist was covered in blood. His fist was split by the sword energy and almost cut in half, severely injuring his bones.

Feng Li's face lit up with joy when he saw this, guessing that Mu Changsheng's talismans had finally been used up, and he took advantage of the opportunity to attack him with another sword energy.

At this time, Feng Li had almost given up the fight for the first place and vowed to beat Mu Changsheng, who she thought was meddling in other people's business, down the mountain.

The sword energy continued to expand in Mu Changsheng's pupils. At the moment when the sword energy was about to arrive, Mu Changsheng shouted in his heart: "Blood energy changes."

Then, Mu Changsheng used his shoulders to withstand the terrifying sword attack.

"Crack." The sword energy penetrated deep into Mu Changsheng's shoulder, as if it was going to cut it off directly. Fortunately, Mu Changsheng used the secret technique of blood and energy transformation at the critical moment, and he resisted the sword energy and saved his shoulder.

Afterwards, Feng Li was about to draw his sword again, but suddenly he heard the sound of a bell.

Along with the bell, there was also the resounding voice of the golden-armored general: "Mu Xun has reached the top, the competition is over."

Feng Li looked up quickly, only to see that Mu Xun had already reached the top. Seeing this, Feng Li could only put away her sword indignantly. If she attacked again, it would be against the rules and would also damage her status as a princess.

"It's finally over." Mu Changsheng completely breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this. If he continued, he would really be knocked off the mountain by Feng Li.

Afterwards, everyone on the maze mountain was sent down the mountain by an invisible force. The maze mountain in the square began to shrink rapidly and eventually turned back into the shape of a small tower, which was returned to Xiao Jingshan by the golden-armored general.

As the lost mountain disappeared, the list of the twenty-five candidates for the palace examination appeared again on the sky screen. The difference was that this time, it was a ranking list of the twenty-five candidates:

First place: Musun

Second place: Fengli

Third place: Mu Changsheng

Fourth place: Xue Shaoyang

Fifth place: Song Zhi

Sixth place: Jiang Yuheng

Seventh place: Bai Kunyu

……

No. 25: Shen Qianliu
