**Chapter 5498: Proving Oneself**
Boom!
The Dead Sea boiled, erupting into towering waves that formed a terrifying tsunami, causing massive waves to crash into the sky.
In the Dead Sea, Mo Li felt dizzy at this moment, his whole body in excruciating pain, as if he had been violently hit by a primordial fierce beast. A metallic, sweet taste filled his throat, giving him the urge to spit blood on the spot.
Moreover, his right fist, which had directly collided with the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor, had its skin split open, sending tingling sensations through him as if he had lost all feeling.
Who am I?
Where am I?
What just happened?
At this moment, Mo Li's mind was in a daze, and he saw golden stars flashing before his eyes.
He felt completely dazed.
What was going on? Clearly, that Emperor of the Ten Halls of Yan had been pierced by Qin Mo's attack, then caught by the head and directly drained of his origin, yet when it came to his own battle with the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor, how did it end up like this?
In terms of cultivation, he and that Qin Mo were both in the quasi-emperor realm, and their strengths should theoretically be evenly matched.
But why...
At this moment, Mo Li's mind was in a whirl, and he couldn’t come back to his senses. No matter how he thought about it, considering the earlier results, he could only conclude one possibility.
That was, even though they were both in the quasi-emperor realm, his strength was still inferior to Qin Chen's, and there was even quite a gap.
This... is impossible!
I don’t believe it.
Mo Li shook his head wildly, a fierce expression suddenly flashing in his eyes.
How could I possibly be weaker than that Qin Mo?
In the same realm, I should not fear anyone.
It must be that my punching stance was wrong, yes, it must be that.
Boom!
Thinking of this, Mo Li suddenly shot up into the sky. Waves of terrifying demonic energy erupted from his body, forming a horrific vortex of demonic power that swirled wildly around him.
“I... Mo Li, am the most powerful peerless genius in this world. How could I possibly be inferior to others at the same realm? It was definitely an accident!”
“Kill!”
Mo Li charged out of the Dead Sea. Regarding his dignity, he must prove himself; it was not that he was weak earlier but just an accident.
Boom!
The endless waters of the Dead Sea surged, and at the same time that Mo Li rushed towards the surface of the sea, the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor had just punched Mo Li away, but for an instant, Mo Li's strike had also interrupted the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor's movement.
At that very moment of pause...
“Chuckle, chuckle, chuckle!”
A light laugh echoed through the heavens and earth, as if it were seeping out from the surrounding void, constantly infiltrating the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor's mind, disturbing his will and spiritual sense, causing the origin flowing in him to stagnate. The great emperor's power he had initially summoned also solidified for a moment.
Boom!
In the next moment, waves of terrifying enchanting power descended from the void, wrapping around his limbs and penetrating into his body.
“Ah, Emperor of Beginning Charm!”
The Five Peaks Underworld Emperor roared, directly summoning his will sea.
Boom, boom, boom!
The terrifying will surged and combined with the great emperor's origin, madly clashing against the invading enchanting power, attempting to forcefully expel it.
This was the most terrifying path of enchantment of the Emperor of Beginning Charm. If his true body were here, with his strength and cultivation as the emperor of the four extremes, he would have nothing to fear from this kind of enchanting technique and could completely ignore it.
But now, he was just a shadow clone. Once penetrated, he would inevitably sink bit by bit into the enchantment of the Emperor of Beginning Charm, ultimately becoming the other party's prey and at their mercy.
Therefore, the Five Peaks Underworld Emperor had no choice but to race against time, crazily expelling the enchanting power of the Emperor of Beginning Charm.
