But Xiao Mu was always serious, staring intensely at the clay figure.

The clay figure emanated a vastly evil power as if equipped with some devious methods.

However, while fighting with Lei Yunzi, it merely employed ordinary techniques, with the four arms maneuvering.

This worried Xiao Mu.

What's with this clay figure? It seemingly has evil skills, but why it has not employed them?

Or did I misinterpret it?

Xiao Mu couldn't help but doubt while he was alert inside and keenly watched the battle between Lei Yunzi and the clay figure.

With the clay figure completely suppressed, Lei Yunzi laughed light-heartedly, "I thought you were so powerful, but you had only these tricks, so I won't feel sorry to break your four arms in three steps."

"Wu huh!"

Lei Yunzi opened his mouth suddenly, giving a powerful yell.

He was actually adept in the Buddha's Lion's Roar.

This Lion's Roar carries a stunning power that is particularly effective against evil absurdities.

With this roar, the clay figure was instantly affected, its swinging four arms momentarily faltered.

"Haha!"

Lei Yunzi roared with laughter. His two palms swung simultaneously, mobilizing all his inner energies and brutally slashed towards the clay figure's arms.

Whooosh!

Lei Yunzi was extremely fast and within a blink of an eye, he launched four palm strikes. Each palm was aimed at one of the clay figure's arms.

He aimed to shatter the clay figure's four arms simultaneously with his four strikes.

Given the power of his Wind and Thunder palm and his own strength, his four strikes were completely capable of destroying the clay figure.

However, at this moment...

The figure's eyes suddenly burst open, and a black light shot out from each eye.

This black light hit Lei Yunzi, instantly immobilizing him.

Lei Yunzi was as if frozen, unable to move at all.

Fear immediately emerged on Lei Yunzi's face.

He couldn't figure out why he was suddenly immobilized.

However, the clay figure seemed determined not to miss this opportunity. Its four arms swung simultaneously, aiming to strike at Lei Yunzi.

"Watch out!"

The moment the clay figure's eyes burst open, Xiao Mu sensed danger. As he yelled a warning to Lei Yunzi, he also unleashed a Divine Armor Talisman aiming to assist Lei Yunzi.

Om!

The Divine Armor Talisman transformed into a golden light that moved straight towards Lei Yunzi.

"Wu huh!"

The clay figure suddenly opened its mouth, giving out a huge roar, which they also just released as the Lion's Roar.

The clay figure seemed to have copied Lei Yunzi's Lion's Roar and used it to block Xiao Mu's Divine Armor Talisman.

"Puh!"

The Lion's Roar metamorphosed into sonic waves that hit the Divine Armor Talisman, shattering it.

Meanwhile...

Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!

The Clay figure's four arms struck Lei Yunzi's body simultaneously - chest, arms.

Crack!

Lei Yunzi's chest bones and arm bones fractured simultaneously. In an instant, he was severely injured and sent flying backwards.

Spatter!

Before he could even hit the ground, Lei Yunzi spouted a mouthful of fresh blood, heavily falling onto the ground.

Had he not been so strong, and his cultivated Thunder-attribute Inner Energy didn't have an automatic shielding effect, the Clay figure's blow certainly could have killed him.

Still, after receiving the four punches from the clay figure, Lei Yunzi was badly injured and completely lost his ability to fight.

"Lei Yunzi, how are you?"

Qing Songzi quickly stepped forward to assist Lei Yunzi back on his feet.

"This clay figurine is too strange, the black light in its eyes is especially powerful, Mr. Qing Songzi, be careful!"

Lei Yunzi forced himself to stand up, his body swaying, so severely injured that he could barely stay on his feet.

"What exactly is that black light?"

Qing Songzi's expression was grave.

He had seen it when the clay figurine's eyes emitted black light.

Lei Yunzi, who clearly overpowered the clay figurine, was immediately suppressed when the black light flashed, and froze up. At the same time, he was seriously injured by the figurine.

"I don't know either."

Lei Yunzi shook his head in shame, "That black light seems to be able to control people's minds. When it hit me, I felt dizzy, and my body was out of my control."

"Control people's minds? Lose control of the body?"

The color drained from Qing Songzi's face.

Everything else was manageable, but controlling minds was truly terrifying, especially since once hit by the black light, one loses control of their body.

How could they fight like this?

"Mr. Qing Songzi, this clay figurine is too strange and dangerous, we can't match its power."

Lei Yunzi repeated his warning, his voice filled with deep caution.

Xiao Mu stepped forward and looking at the injured Lei Yunzi, he felt somewhat guilty.

He had been careful but still underestimated the clay figurine's power.

The Divine Armor Talisman's power could have saved Lei Yunzi. It was unexpected that the clay figurine copied Lei Yunzi's Lion's Roar and took down the Divine Armor Talisman using the Lion's Roar.

Simply put, the clay figurine was too strange. Its peculiar abilities completely exceeded his expectations.

"Mr. Mu, please take care of Lei Yunzi for me. I want to test the power of this clay figurine."

As Qing Songzi spoke, he passed Lei Yunzi over to Xiao Mu to support, and was about to approach the clay figurine.

"Mr. Qing Songzi, don't!"

Lei Yunzi quickly gripped Qing Songzi, advising, "This clay figurine's abilities are incredibly strange. If you can't block the black light from its eyes, it'll be the same for everyone."

"Mr. Qing Songzi, you're the head of our Nanke City Alliance and need to keep the alliance strong, please don't take unnecessary risks."

"How can we find Li Jinyu without destroying this clay figurine?"

Qing Songzi gently shook his head, smiling, "Compared to the safety of the entire city of Nanke City, my personal safety is inconsequential. Besides, if I'm prepared ahead of time, that black light might not be able to harm me."

Despite his words, he looked fearful as he glanced at the clay figurine.

He saw earlier how the clay figurine suddenly opened its eyes, and used the black light to restrict Lei Yunzi. As for whether he could evade it himself, he truly had no confidence.

The black light is too eerie, and it shot out from the figurine's eyes too fast, without any warning, it would be incredibly hard to avoid.

"Mr. Qing Songzi, perhaps we should call for more people from the base."

Lei Yunzi continued to admonish.

"Call for reinforcements?"

Qing Songzi shook his head again, bitterly stating, "Of the five top experts in the Mid Third Realm in the alliance, other than you and me, Lei Zhenzi needs to guard our station, protecting the Iron Blood Battle Flag, and he can't leave. The Grand Chan Master and the mighty warrior are on a task, there's no one we can call for."

"This..."

Lei Yunzi was silenced on the spot, and speechless.

Subconsciously, he glanced at Xiao Mu, wanting to say something, but ultimately kept quiet.

Xiao Mu was only somebody they had asked for help, considering the dangerous situation, they couldn't really ask him to take risks.

Furthermore, Lei Yunzi had already been injured by the clay figurine.

If they let Xiao Mu take the lead and he ended up getting injured as well, how could they live with themselves?

Qing Songzi noticed Lei Yunzi's gaze and knew what he was thinking. Their thoughts were alike: they felt awkward asking Xiao Mu for help in such a risky situation.

"Ahem!"

Xiao Mu guessed their thoughts and cleared his throat, suggesting, "Mr. Qing Songzi, Mr. Lei Yunzi, if it would not bother you, may I take this battle?"
