Chapter 499-Naga's Power
"Hmm, you think such a petty formation can stop me? No one can escape here," Muller sneered, his voice dripping with confidence as he chanted, "Chaos Strike!"
A lightning attack, infused with chaos energy, erupted from Muller's hands, consuming a fraction of his energy.
Determined to halt their havoc in his empire, Muller unleashed his power.
The five men had been confident in their defense, but their expectations were shattered when a mysterious blackish-violet energy touched their formation.
With a resounding crack, the formation crumbled, and the men coughed, injured in an instant. The formation had relied on their life force, and its destruction left them badly wounded.
Healing such internal injuries would require thousands of years unless they consumed a miraculous pill.
"What?"
Leon and the five guards were astonished, realizing the severity of the situation.
"Run! Young Master, we will give you time to escape," they urged, recognizing the urgency of retreat.
The five men exchanged looks, understanding that they had been trained by the Metal Emperor to sacrifice themselves if necessary.
Even if they were to escape now, the Metal Emperor would ensure their demise if anything happened to the prince, possibly taking out his anger on their families in the Metal Empire.
With resolve, the five men retrieved black pills and consumed them. Muller, watching with a cold smile, was suddenly overcome with anger.
"Demonic Pills! You have a death wish!" he shouted in fury.
Muller's shock stemmed from the fact that Demonic Pills were created by a demon alchemist.
While they doubled someone's power for a minute, their souls would be corrupted by demonic energies afterward, turning them into mindless killing machines.
"Naga, leave this place now!"
Muller commanded, concerned for his daughter's safety.
However, Naga shook her head confidently.
"Don't worry about me, Father. I have my ways to protect myself. Let me handle Leon so you can focus on the five."
Muller was stunned by Naga's determination but saw the unwavering resolve in her eyes.
Sighing, he realized his daughter had already made up her mind, so he agreed.
"Guards, lock the gates and evacuate the civilians and other nobles in the castle immediately," he commanded.
The soldiers, armed and prepared to fight for their lives, obeyed without hesitation.
They had unwavering faith in their emperor's power and followed his orders swiftly.
Initially at the Transcendental Being level with 20 soul flowers each, the five men?doubled their power using the Demonic Pills and rushed toward Muller, aiming to buy time for Leon to escape.
Aware of their inferiority compared to Muller, they hoped to delay him long enough for Leon to activate the treasure bestowed upon him by their emperor.
Boom!
Muller found himself struggling to suppress the enhanced power of the five men, but he restrained himself from unleashing his full strength, mindful of the presence of the Holy Son nearby.
Though he knew he could defeat them within minutes with his newfound powers, he refrained from doing so.
As the five men kept Muller occupied, Leon dashed toward the entrance, realizing that the space was sealed, preventing him from utilizing the treasure his father had provided.
Determined to escape the castle, he drew his sword from his spatial ring and struck down the guards blocking his path.
"Fvck get out of my way!"
Boom!
The strike killed five guards instantly, stunning both the remaining guards and Muller, who observed Leon's actions in disbelief.
They had underestimated Leon, believing him to be merely a Saint Sovereign known for indulging in hedonism and mistreating women.
"Haha! Surprised, aren't you? It was all just a facade, and you forced me to reveal my true powers," Leon taunted, reveling in the shock he had caused.
Leon displayed his aura, emanating the power of a Transcendental Being, although he had only comprehended one soul-flower, indicating a recent breakthrough.
His sword, infused with demonic energy, added to the ominous atmosphere surrounding him.
"You cannot stop me!"
Leon laughed, launching an attack on the guards at the gate.
However, before his strike could land, a sword light intercepted his attack, shattering it.
Boom!
"Today is the day of your death, Leon," declared Naga as she emerged in front of the gate, wielding a seemingly ordinary white sword.
Despite Naga's calm demeanor, Leon scoffed, dismissing her seemingly inferior cultivation level. He couldn't fathom how a Divine Emperor like Naga could hinder his escape.
"Heh, bitch how dare you try to stop me with your measly cultivation?"
With a glint in his eyes, Leon saw an opportunity to use Naga as a captive to facilitate his escape. "Hehe, an opportunity."
"Metal Cage!" he commanded, conjuring an earth cage from the ground in an attempt to ensnare Naga.
"Naga, dodge!" urged Muller, recognizing the imminent danger.
Muller, consumed by worry for Naga, shouted a warning, but the attack came swiftly, leaving him unable to intervene.
Despite the imminent danger, Naga remained composed, flashing a confident smile that belied any sense of peril.
"Hehe, useless tricks," she remarked casually, effortlessly slicing through the Metal Cage as if it were mere butter.
Leon, taken aback, could only watch in disbelief. The Metal Cage was renowned for its formidable defense, often employed by the royal families of the Metal Empire for capturing and fortification.
Boom!
Leon's mind raced as he attempted to comprehend the situation, but Naga's swift movements caught him off guard.
With a decisive slash, she aimed to decapitate him, prompting Leon to evade narrowly.
"Hah, that was close,"
Leon muttered, shaken by Naga's display of strength. Even his demonic sword trembled, seemingly intimidated by the power emanating from Naga's blade.
It was the first time Leon witnessed such behavior from his own weapon, sparking a newfound curiosity about Naga's sword.
"Haha, bitch, you surprise me. But if you think you can defeat me, you're courting death,"
Leon sneered, unleashing a soul attack. Transcendental Beings possessed a profound understanding of souls, a domain where they held a distinct advantage over Divine Emperors and those below them.
As long as their souls remained intact, they could endure for extended periods, even reincarnating or seizing control of others' bodies.
"Naga, be careful!" cautioned the sword spirit, alerting Naga to the impending soul attack.
Unfazed by the threat, Naga charged toward Leon, undeterred by fear or hesitation.
"Huh?"
Leon's expression shifted and surprised at Naga's unwavering resolve in the face of danger.
