Both of them roared at the same time. Boundless sword energy left their hands and pointed straight at the rainbow radiance in the sky.
At the same time, both of them sprung up as well, charging over at their highest speed.
However, just as the two of them rushed up, there was another strange fluctuation coming from below. Moreover, it wasn't from one place, but from three different directions at the same time!
It was as if Supreme Cloud had gone berserk underground!
Mr. Nian and his companion were still quick to react. There was no hesitation throughout the entire process. One of them maintained the momentum of a comet as he chased after the rainbow silhouette in midair while the other turned back immediately, pouncing towards the ripples on the ground.
From rushing to higher ground to turning back, the entire process was as smooth as flowing water. There was not the slightest bit of reluctance.
Sword light flashed. With a soft cry, Mr. Nian flew out like a dragon.
Looking down from above, his sword energy was unleashed to its limit!
At this moment, Mr. Nian's sword energy and sword light were like giant axes that could split heaven and earth apart, slashing down with an earth-shattering force!
The current situation was within Mr. Nian's expectations. He had long predicted that Supreme Cloud would not wait for his death, especially when the spiritual restraining formation that was aimed at him came again. He would definitely make a last-ditch effort at the last moment, and this was Supreme Cloud's only chance to strike. Therefore, Mr. Nian had long been ready to strike. Even though everything seemed to have happened out of the blue, he was actually well-prepared. Furthermore, this was the decisive strike, so the force of his attack was several times stronger than before!
With a loud bang, the three locations were shrouded by flashes of sword light at the same time. In an instant, dust filled the sky. The strange Sword Qi with a strange attribute immediately covered the space of a thousand feet around the three locations.
Yun Yang, who was performing his mystic art, felt as if he had been struck by lightning. His heart stopped abruptly!
The moment Yun Yang's heart stopped, Emmie's unique mystical energy surged into him like a great river.
At the same time, the sky that was supposed to be as bright as day suddenly appeared amidst the snow-filled sky. Densely packed, they shot out abruptly, forming a miraculous scene of starlight illuminating the sun!
It fell like a long river!
High up in the sky, the person who was in hot pursuit slashed at the rainbow silhouette, but he was surprised to find that the falling object was indestructible. Upon closer inspection, he realized that the rainbow silhouette was actually a saber!
It was a mysterious saber with a strange shape, but it looked exceptionally beautiful. It was a saber that no one could bear to part with!
The fact that the saber light could withstand a full-force strike from a master of such a level without being destroyed was already a testament to its extraordinary quality!
Delighted, the person reached out to grab it but did not forget to remind Mr. Nian on the other end, "Complete the spiritual restraining formation immediately!"
Below, Mr. Nian's sword light shot out, but he suddenly felt the ground shake as the starlight from the horizon fell straight down.
The power of heaven and earth was so overwhelming that even a powerhouse like Mr. Nian dared not face it head-on!
Mr. Nian knew that things were not looking good, so he made a prompt decision. The few remaining pieces of rainbow crystals in his hands flew out and flew towards the designated location like a meteor chasing after the moon.
In the sky, just as that person's finger was about to touch the Blade of Heaven's Will, the Blade of Heaven's Will suddenly flashed and mysteriously disappeared.
On the ground, the entire mountain began to shake. Dust rose thousands of feet into the sky, threatening to cover the sun. For a moment, one could not even see their fingers or see anything.
The rumbling was deafening as dozens of mountains crumbled at the same time!
The power of the stars fell with a tremendous force, disintegrating all the mountains within a hundred thousand feet radius. The ground quaked as if the entire continent was enraged.
Faced with such a phenomenon, Mr. Nian could only watch in shock, his mind blank.
What – what was going on?
Supreme Cloud?
If Supreme Cloud had such capability, it would not be difficult for him to fight him head-on or even kill him. How could he have been forced into such a state?
However, if this was not Supreme Cloud's doing, what was going on?
Beneath the ground.
Not only did Yun Yang, who had been channeled by Emmie, regain his vigor, but a tremendous force surged into his body with a boom. Yun Yang felt his body tremble violently, his soul almost completely shattered at that moment.
He forcefully endured the excruciating pain, relying on the last bit of clarity in his mind to cast the Holy Water Charm once more. Driven by the boundless force, Yun Yang's Holy Water Charm cultivation base was elevated to a terrifying height in an instant. It was as if all the water in the world was under his control! He unleashed it with all his might!
Almost in the blink of an eye, the water three thousand feet below the ground suddenly surged upward with a loud boom.
Yun Yang, who was channeling the Holy Water Charm with all his might, endured the excruciating pain that felt like his soul was being torn apart, and dived with all his might, following the space where Mr. Nian's sword energy had landed.
In the blink of an eye, he had already dived at least two thousand feet deep.
Yun Yang could already faintly feel the chill of the underground river beneath his feet. He felt relieved and was about to go with the current when the spiritual restraining formation was unexpectedly activated. Yun Yang felt his body grow heavy, losing his water manifestation and returning to his human form. Following the inertia, he tumbled into the surging underground river. Without the control of the Holy Water Charm, the underground river's water that fell instantly brought rolling sand and Yun Yang's body along with it, plunging straight into the depths of the ground.
In an instant, it had returned to its original flow of the underground river, surging forward like a great river!
In the blink of an eye, he had already gone somewhere unknown.
With a boom, the mountains exploded. Gravel pierced through the air and waves filled the sky. It was a scene of the end of the world.
On the ground, the two men waved their long sleeves. Their expressions did not change in the face of the collapsing mountains and splitting earth. They waved their sleeves calmly, brushing away the shattered rocks and flying dust.
One on the left and the other on the right, the two men parted all the gravel around them before diving down like two bolts of lightning.
Rumbling sounds could be heard from time to time. It was the sound of the two men knocking the rocks that had just been shattered aside or smashing them into smithereens.
As far as the eye could see, the two thousand feet deep still had traces of the underground river gushing up; it was still damp.
Both men exerted their strength at the same time. With the flash of their swords and a loud boom, they plunged another hundred feet down, but there was no trace of Yun Yang. They repeated this for more than a dozen times. After a dozen consecutive strikes, the rumbling sound of the underground river could be faintly heard.
Just as the two men were about to continue their efforts and reach the underground river to continue their pursuit of Yun Yang, the aftermath of the landslide above them finally showed itself. With a deafening rumble, both sides of their heads caved in at the same time.
For a moment, not only was there a scene of devastation, but the landscape had also changed!
Both men cursed, unleashing their thick mystical Qi at once in an attempt to withstand the earth-shattering force with their own domineering force. Both of their cultivations were already at the pinnacle of the world. Even a landslide wouldn't be able to cause any harm to them.
In spite of this, they could not stop the inertia of the collapsing rocks and soil.
When the collapse ended, both men were shocked to find that they had returned to a position close to the surface. The thousands of feet wide hole beneath their feet that they had just created was now sealed tightly by the collapsed rocks and soil.
Supreme Cloud's aura had truly vanished this time!
There was not a single trace of him left!
"Argh!"
The person who came next howled into the sky. His hands parted and two rays of sword light shot out at the same time.
It was obvious that the person was still unwilling to give up. He did not want to give up the chance to kill Supreme Cloud just like that!
Countless rocks and soil flew out once more in response to the sword light. Mr. Nian also lent a helping hand at the right time.
An hour later.
A super deep hole that was more than three hundred zhang deep had appeared where the two of them stood. The width at the top was no less than ten thousand zhang, and it looked like a huge funnel!
In front of both men, they were already three thousand feet below the ground.
A raging underground river, only twenty to thirty feet wide and of unknown depth, surged and flowed into the other end of the pitch-black hole on the other side.
Mr. Nian's expression was ferocious. With a rub of his hands, a staff made entirely of mystical Qi appeared in his hands. He plunged it directly into the underground river and lengthened it until it was about a hundred feet long before he could confirm the bottom!
The underground river was only thirty feet wide but a hundred feet deep. The current was rapid. After such a long time, with Supreme Cloud's water manifestation ability like Supreme Water's, it was likely that … he was nowhere to be found by now!
Moreover, this was different from before. Supreme Cloud's shapeshifting ability could be put to good use here. Even though they knew that he was in this underground river, there was nothing they could do!
They could not catch him any longer!
Who would know which drop of water was Supreme Cloud in the entire river?
Even if their cultivation base was impeccable, it was impossible for them to evaporate the underground river completely!
"He's gone."
Mr. Nian sighed softly, a strange glint flashing across his eyes.
He truly did not expect that he would fail to eliminate the Nine Supremes' remnant even after he had personally come out with his overwhelming ability and planned ahead. Every move he made was highly targeted.
"Supreme Cloud is not fated to die yet! We can only look for another chance next time. " The other man said faintly, "However, the next chance is right before our eyes. We only need to look for it on the battlefield … Yutang is at a critical juncture now. As long as Supreme Cloud gets out, he'll definitely go to the battlefield."
"That's true. He has something to worry about. It's hard for him to escape death!"
Mr. Nian nodded.
Both men exchanged glances and flew up without hesitation to return to the ground. Keeping the spiritual stones used to set up the spiritual restraining formation, they soared into the sky and headed east.
On the ground, water slowly seeped out of the funnel-shaped hole dug out by the two experts.
It was like a gigantic eye glinting with sarcasm.

"This plot is driving me to death …"
