The Divine Martial Stars

Fairy Emperor of Light's expression was perfectly normal, without any change the whole time.

He casually pointed at three men in the crowd of the extraterrestrial cultivators in a row, the three of whom were all at the early stage of the Soldier Realm. Then, he ordered, "You three, go attack him together."

"You barefaced git! How dare you turn this into a three-on-one game?" Ming Yue was irritated. She cast that image of the white lotus against a blue sky, ready to back Li Mu up, only Qing Feng and Guo Yuqing pulled her back in time.

Ming Yue's physical constitution was quite special, and her potential was infinite. However, her current strength could only allow her to get the better of the local practitioners on that planet. She was not a match for those extraterrestrial practitioners who had passed the Life and Death Bridge, let alone those in the Soldier Realm.

"Sinners are all evil and wretched, so it's useless to reason with this one."

"It's your honor to die in the hands of the three of us."

"Stop wasting time talking with this sinner. Just kill him!"

The three figures, two of whom were men and one were woman, looked exceptionally imposing. They were from the Ancient Taoist Sect, the Nether Flower Sect, and the Sword-rinsing Sect respectively. With a dark look in their eyes, they each took out their weapons and closed in on Li Mu.

Guo Yuqing stroke forward, clenching his Flying Lightning Spear.

But Li Mu waved him off and said, "Big Brother, you go back and protect Qing Feng and Ming Yue."

Guo Yuqing hesitated for a moment and then backed away.

Li Mu raised his feet and kicked the bodies of Sun Ji from the Tianyi Palace, the head of the Gold Sun Sect, and the master of Wind Sword Party to the feet of the Qing Feng and Ming Yue. In a violent rage, her eyes suddenly lit up. She took Li Mu's hint and began searching for the storage devices those people carried. Soon, she picked up all of the devices.

All of the extraterrestrial practitioners went speechless when they saw the scene.

"This moneygrubber wants to scrape more money even at the last moment of his life! What can you do even though you find a fortune? You can take them but you won't have a chance to use them!"

Li Mu's right hand was holding a long knife, his left hand holding the short broadsword backhanded. Summoning his power to his feet, he turned into a streak of shadows, taking the initiative to attack the three experts.

The battle broke out.

After about half an hour, three more heads flew up. The three top leaders of the three major sects were all killed in the battle, none of whom escaped the doom of being beheaded.

Nevertheless, Li Mu was not completely unscathed, either.

His left shoulder was sporting a cut left by a sword that reached deep to the bones and almost chopped his left arm off. The slash in his abdomen nearly dashed his chances of having children. His intestines were about to fall out, only he held them back with the front part of his robes. Also, a broken sword had sunk into the flesh of his thigh, the sword tip protruding from the opposite side… How serious his injuries were!

The extraterrestrial practitioners gasped involuntarily. Their looks at Li Mu changed as well.

Originally, they thought that, under the joint force of the top leaders of the three major sects, Li Mu was hopeless to survive that one. The best he could do was to kill one of the three top leaders before he got killed himself, leaving two other experts alive. However, to their astonishment, the battle developed into such a result.

If it were not that Li Mu was also bleeding, they would really doubt whether the young sinner was a fighting machine. He was too horrible, too tough. Aside from his strong strength, the subtleness of his broadsword arts could only be said to be average. But he boldly chose to wound the opponents at the expense of himself. With that desperate zero-sum method, he shockingly took the lives of the three top leaders.

That kind of man was a mad fighter, a lunatic.

With a cold smile playing around the corner of Fairy Emperor of Light, the immortal seemed not surprised at all. He did not speak, either, but continued to pick the next batch of combatants in the crowd of the extraterrestrial practitioners. This time, he selected six experts in succession, and remarked, "Go for him altogether. Don't let me down."

Li Mu did not protest, but simply stopped the infuriated swears of Ming Yue and the others.

Fairy Emperor of Light was obviously playing a cat's game. At that time, any cursing or reasoning would be of no good. Only by annihilating all the enemies with the broadswords in his hand could he solve the problem.

He kicked the three bodies to the feet of Ming Yue and kindly refused Guo Yuqing's help. Then, he clenched the long sword between his teeth and pulled out the broken sword with his free. Blood squirted instantly. After that, he held the long broadsword in his hand again and rushed to the six experts approaching him.

However, after waddling two steps, he stumbled and almost fell.

The broken sword was the weapon of the head of the Sword-rinsing Sect. It was an extremely remarkable Taoist instrument. The Sword Intent it contained had gone rampant in the muscles and bones of Li Mu's left thigh like maggots. If it was not for Li Mu's natural qi to suppress it, his left leg would have been lost.

"Well, he is a cripple now. Still want to fight his last fight?" Someone ridiculed.

But in the next instant, Li Mu's long broadsword struck, exposing his body to the enemy while cleaving the target in two from the waist.

The battle was incomparably fierce.

Soon, Li Mu was covered with injuries, and his forehead was almost split up by an opponent. His front chest, back, arms and legs were strewn with cuts and wounds. The skin was cut open, revealing the flesh and white bones underneath. It looked as if Li Mu was halfway through a dismembering.

Of his six adversaries, three were killed, two were disabled, and one was gravely injured and scared out of wits. Having lost his courage to fight again, when the expert saw the badly mangled Li Mu who now resembled a walking dead in the middle of coming back to life, he let out a shriek and ran away…

"No, you can't be a human being!" Growled the Supreme Elder of the Plum and Orchid Sect, whose Taoist spirit was almost completely destroyed, fighting will dispersed. In truth, he would be better off if he was killed. After the battle, he nearly lost his sanity.

The rest of the extraterrestrial experts had no idea what to say.

"Perhaps this teenage sinner just can't be killed, can he?"

They never knew a man could be so difficult to murder.

The confrontation had already cost the lives of several top leaders of major sects. In the Brilliance Immortal Galaxy, it had been ages since last time so many top leaders were finished off on the same day. Had it not been for the suppression of the tactical deployment in the air, any of the dead top leaders would have easily killed the young man. But now, all of them had become ghosts due to Li Mu's broadswords.

Fairy Emperor of Light's expression had remained the same from the beginning to the end, as though he was a god overlooking the struggle of several ants. In his eyes, the top leaders of the major sects in the Brilliance Immortal Galaxy were basically as humble as ants.

He off-handedly raised a finger and a jet of immortal qi shot out, which hit the Supreme Elder of the Plum and Orchid Sect who had been scared into a flee without putting up a fight. The terrified man was crumbled into powder at once, leaving nothing to be buried.

After that, Fairy Emperor of Light again motioned 10 experts from the crowd and commanded, "Kill him!"

The 10 people were the strongest among the remaining extraterrestrial practitioners.

Among them were the black-clothed boy carrying a sword on his back, the pair of sisters, the boy of the witch tribe, as well as Zhangsun Changkong, the Demon Broadsword.

Faced with Li Mu, who was already unrecognizable because of his severe injuries, the 10 people came to the battlefield with confidence. The result of the upcoming fight seemed to be declared in advance. No matter how fierce and frenetic Li Mu was, he had absolute zero odds to defeat the 10 experts before him in that state.

Li Mu propped himself up with the long broadsword and finally managed to stand on his feet. A broadsword mark and a sword mark crisscrossed on his face, thoroughly destroying his good look. Even so, his eyes were still calm and fearless.

Blood flowed along the long broadsword and converged into a blood pool on the ground.

The earth in the valley of the Five-finger Mountain was different from that of the outside, so there was no sign of the holy blood turning into the mortal blood. Nonetheless, the land under Li Mu's feet was already soaked in blood as if it were a bloody swamp.

Wang Shiyu had long been full of tears and sorrow, her heart filled with grief, anxiety, and desperation. But she had been magically fixed on the spot, even not able to blink. Thus, she could not do anything other than let herself be engulfed by tears and despair.

Ming Yue, Guo Yuqing, and Qing Feng were already trembling in rage. However, Li Mu had put his foot down and forbidden anyone to come forward and help him.

"Haha, you still want to play the hero even when death is just before your eyes." Zhangsun Changkong, the Demon Broadsword, leered. He had not even pulled out the long broadsword on his back. "There is no need to mobilize the others at all. I alone can send you to the netherworld."

He had long been itching to attack.

"I can't, do this." After being selected, the black-clothed young man hesitated for a few moments and shook his head. He took a step backward, clearly rejecting the assignment of Fairy Emperor of Light. Then, he explained, "Dirty win, not desired, not helpful."

Taking advantage of other people's perils to destroy them would bring no honor to the victory. And that would also contaminate his heart.

Making that decision did require courage.

Before Bu Feiyan, the elder sister, could say a word, her younger sister no longer looked torn between her options and said loudly, "I always want to become the number one broadsword master in the Ziwei Star Region when I grow up. So, how can I attack such a half-dead person who has lost the combat power? That will disgrace for my broadsword art."

Her elder sister did not strike. She just held her sister's hand with a perfectly normal expression, neither ordering her to stop talking nor silencing her with the Shutup Curse. That indirectly displayed her attitude.

In the eyes of Fairy Emperor of Light, a ray of light was whirling. As he rested his eyes on the three people, a torrent of power surged and then bore down upon them like sea waves.

"What do you mean?" Zhangsun Changkong, the Demon Broadsword, glared at the black-clothed young man carrying a sword and the pair of sisters, his eyes malicious. The words and decisions of the other three made his cheeks burning hot as if they had just slapped him in the face.

"Humph, you have no idea of the consequence. How can you pick this moment to show your lofty morals and noble character?"

"How could you sympathize with the sinner?"

"The three juniors really don't know how high the sky is. How dare they defy Fairy Emperor of Light?"

Among the 10 chosen extraterrestrial experts, the others who were ready to attack Li Mu all felt humiliated. Comparison was never good for anyone. Now, in comparison with the choice and action of the three youngsters, they were all ashamed of their inferiority and jealous of the three at the same time.

"Well, as I understand it, those three people are guilty, too. I'm afraid they have collided with the sinner. We'd better kill them all." The boy from the witch tribe with deformed legs sneered, his face overflowing with killing intent.

"Have a try then." The black-clothed young man carrying a sword laughed coldly, his eyes fixed at the boy of the witch tribe.

Zhangsun Changkong, the Demon Broadsword, pulled out the long broadsword on his back and said darkly, "Anyone who dares to go against the will of Fairy Emperor of Light shall be killed!"

Fairy Emperor of Light smiled and said, "I kill sinners, not those talented descendants. You three kids dare to disobey me. That requires some courage…" He turned to look at the others and continued, "Keep the three ignorant kids alive for the moment. Let's handle the humble sinner first."

Zhangsun Changkong and the other experts quickly took the order.

Bang!

Zhangsun Chang tentatively launched a punch. Waves of energy gushing from his palm threw Li Mu to the air, who then fell heavily on the ground dozens of meters away.

"Aargh…" Li Mu opened his mouth and spilled a mouthful of blood.

At that scene, the boy of the witch tribe cackled. "Hahaha, I thought how powerful you might be. Turns out that you are already a spent arrow, too weak to take one more blow…" He quickly raised his hand and slammed on a rock, which hit Li Mu squarely, tearing his already ragged body even further and causing more blood to ooze out.

Sure enough, Li Mu was already a spent arrow.

The young man was doomed.

Seeing that, many of the extraterrestrial cultivators finally breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that a nightmare was finally about to end.
