Elder Zhao and Yu Yun Jun, as well as several other Elders, were silent. The Sect Leader had his own selfish motives, but at this point, he had no qualms about sacrificing himself.
"Elder Zhao, since the Sect Leader is gone, you shall be the acting Sect Leader. Please take command, and not let the Sect Leader's sacrifice go to waste." Yu Yun Jun and Zhao Ning were both Core Elders, and thus had the authority to take over the Sect Leader's position. However, she was a woman, and it wasn't appropriate for her to do so.
"I understand. I shall take over immediately. No matter what, we have to fight till we reach Paradise." Zhao Ning knew that things were getting urgent, and did not decline. He then said, "Elder Yu, you specialize in Dao arts, and are not proficient in sword arts. Let us defend. You and Chu Xia can escape."
Yu Yun Jun paused for sometime before saying, "Let Chu Xia and the second batch of people leave. I am still a Yin Master Daoist. My sect has been nurturing me, and I still have Dao arts. I want to fight."
"Then let's fight." Zhao Ning drew his sword, filled with killing intent. At this point, the wall had been completely destroyed. Dozens of people rushed into the monastery. The Free Cloud Sect disciples formed a small formation, and were either fighting or retreating.
"Boom!"
Within Paradise, the Earth Immortal's clone groaned out as he fell backwards. However, the True Sovereign was surrounded by a black aura, as though it was trying to destroy his body.
Spiritual light flashed as the Earth Immortal's clone fought against the black aura. Red blood dripped down onto Paradise. The True Sovereign looked ahead, "When did you cast a curse on me?"
When the Earth Immortal heard this, he laughed coldly, "You're just a True Sovereign. How can you understand the true meaning of being an Earth Immortal?"
The Earth Immortal's clone started to bleed as well. Although the blood was red, it was different from the blood of mortals. It looked like a red crystal as it dripped onto the ground. He then laughed, "Besides, this isn't a curse. This is an attack from Dark Altar Sect. When the sect above was destroyed, you were injured. Are you alright now?"
As soon as he said this, a loud boom could be heard as cracks appeared on Paradise once again. The True Sovereign then shouted, "Hold the formation, and hold Paradise in place."
"Profound Dao, cleanse the entire body, transform the body …" The True Sovereign then recited the words. Spots of light started to congeal around the True Sovereign's body, and the True Sovereign's body started to heal.
The Paradise was originally peaceful and serene. There were flowers and grasses everywhere. But at this point, they were all withering and turning into sand. In the blink of an eye, it was unbearable to look at. One of the Daoists suddenly said, "It's time for us to be martyred."
The Yin Masters gave up on the formation and charged forward with their swords in hand.
The leader of the Yin Deities was dressed in a black Daoist robe, and he held a three-foot-long green sword in his hand. His face was like colored glass, and it glowed with white light. Several people followed behind him.
At this point, several of the Yin Masters were muttering to themselves. One of the Patriarchs looked at his disciple and shouted out, "Chen Xi, go back. We don't need disciples like you to sacrifice yourselves."
"Master, forgive me for being unfilial. Without Paradise, what future do I have? Even a moth flies into a flame, much less a Taoist like me. "Chen Xi shouted," Master, forgive me for being unfilial. "
As soon as the Daoist finished speaking, his entire soul started burning up and transformed into a ball of light. Numerous other souls did the same and transformed into blazing flames that rushed into the clear light. They gathered together and transformed into a huge sword that pounced forward.
"How touching." The Earth Immortal's clone spoke as he stretched out a hand. "Boom!" The huge sword trembled, but didn't shatter. The Earth Immortal's clone trembled as his face fell. He then shouted out, "Just a bunch of ants and you still want to shine? Turn into ashes!"
As he spoke, he waved his hand as another pearl appeared. As soon as this pearl appeared, it brought with it the sound of thunder and wind as it slammed into the huge sword.
"Boom!" The huge sword shattered into pieces. These pieces fell to the ground and turned into sweet dew.
Not only that, the entire sky turned dark as the light disappeared. Once again, a huge amount of sweet dew fell to the ground. As the dew fell to the ground, the ground began to mend itself. The Yin Masters who were affected by the light started to recover. The Earth Immortal's clone felt his entire body tremble as blood flowed from his nose. He took several steps back, his expression was one of shock.
The True Sovereign looked at the Imperial Edict and King Lu's Imperial Qi clashing against each other. He then gritted his teeth and laughed, "Do you think that you're the only one with such abilities?" Following the True Sovereign's words, Paradise started to emit a melody as it spread out towards the Earth Immortal's clone. This caused ripples to form, as though it was trying to melt the Earth Immortal's clone.
As the sweet dew fell, the rest of the Yin Masters started to heal. However, the Earth Immortal's clone's body started to tremble as red smoke started to emit from his body. It was obvious that he was being corroded.
"You've mastered Paradise to such an extent. That sweet dew was your Incense Flame right? You really have the potential to become a True Sovereign." The Earth Immortal's clone spoke out coldly.
At the next moment, the True Sovereign shouted out as he materialized a long spear and charged towards the Earth Immortal's clone.
Seeing the True Sovereign charging towards him, the Earth Immortal's clone laughed out, "Haven't you seen my strength clearly? I've always wanted to kill you. But even if I can't, I've still managed to buy some time. "
"Small Heavenly Realm!"
As soon as the Earth Immortal's clone spoke, the space in front of him exploded. Behind the True Sovereign, a drop of blood appeared and turned into a blood man. The moment this blood man appeared, a huge chain appeared between him and the Earth Immortal's clone, forming a prison.
"How do you think the Imperial Qi should be used?" The Earth Immortal's clone waved his hand as King Lu's Imperial Qi hesitated for a moment before it turned back into a long sword.
"Go to hell!" Just as the long sword was about to land, the sky trembled as a ball of fire appeared in the sky. As soon as the fire appeared, the spiritual energy within Paradise was channeled into the fire as it flew towards the Earth Immortal's clone.
"Eh? Another person with the authority to enter Paradise? " The Earth Immortal's clone was taken aback as he looked at the incoming attack. In a flash, he disappeared and reappeared ten meters away. At this point, a female Daoist appeared behind the blood man and slashed down with her sword.
"Pu!" The blood man was decapitated. Looking at the head that fell to the ground, she was initially elated. Slowly, her expression turned to shock and anger. The prison had not been broken.
"My Small Heavenly Realm is specially used to deal with True Sovereigns from Paradise. How can you understand the thousands of years of hard work? The difference between you and me is the same as the difference between mortals! "The Earth Immortal's clone spoke out coldly, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"Boom!"
A bolt of lightning flashed through the dark clouds, illuminating the entire mountain. Branches danced in the wind as Pei Zi Yun rode on a horse. He could already see the entrance of the mountain, and could hear the sounds of battle.
All of a sudden, he felt a sense of danger as his eyebrows twitched and he jumped down.
"Pu pu!" Several arrows pierced through the sky, and the horse in front of him tripped and fell to the ground. There was a cry of pain, and the horse did not make another sound. Its neck had been broken. Seeing this, Pei Zi Yun felt a chill in his heart. Without hesitation, he dashed into the darkness.
"Pu pu!" His sword flashed, and several people screamed out in pain. Pei Zi Yun did not stop and dashed towards the entrance of the mountain. The entrance wasn't very high, and was only about a hundred meters tall. Very soon, he could see that there were corpses everywhere, and blood was everywhere.
There were also injured people lying on the ground, moaning in pain. However, no one came forward to help them. After taking a few more steps, he could hear the sounds of battle in the corner.
"There's someone there?" Pei Zi Yun thought to himself as he dashed forward.
He saw two Daoists with injuries all over their bodies. They had their backs to each other as they fought with a group of swordsmen.
"Paralysis Technique!" Pei Zi Yun did not hesitate as he cast a spell. Following which, his sword shone brightly, emitting a strange sound as it swept across the area.
Swordsmen were trained in the basics of Dao Arts, and the paralysis effect was very short. However, to Pei Zi Yun, it was more than enough.
"Pu pu pu!" Three swordsmen screamed out in pain as they fell to the ground. The remaining two swordsmen retaliated with their swords. "Clang!" Their swords were knocked off course. Pei Zi Yun's sword pierced through the throat of one of the swordsmen. Another man fell to the ground, but he did not stop breathing as he groaned in pain.
Only then did the two Daoists feel the numbness dissipate. The Yin Master Daoist's Dao Arts could now be used to attack within a certain range.
"How's the sect?" Pei Zi Yun asked loudly.
The two Daoists hurriedly replied, "Our sect has been breached. Elder Zhao is fighting back and drawing the enemy's attention. He ordered us to break out of the encirclement and save our sect. However, only the two of us managed to escape."
Pei Zi Yun paused before asking, "What do you do now?"
The injured Daoist on the left paused before saying, "Senior brother Pei, follow me."
The other Daoist grabbed him and said, "Junior brother, the sect wants us to break out of the encirclement and save our sect."
The injured Daoist then said, "Senior brother, senior brother Zeng died fighting for me. I'm still alive. Senior brother Pei needs a guide. Let me go."
"There's a swordsman in front." The swordsman stood in front, guarding the path. Pei Zi Yun stretched out a finger and pointed. A ray of light flashed, and the swordsman's body froze.
The Daoist who had led the way pounced forward to kill him.
"You're asking for death!" The swordsman's body moved, and the binding spell was stopped. The sound of metal clanging could be heard as the Daoist who had led the way retreated.
The swordsman laughed out loud. All of a sudden, Pei Zi Yun pounced on him from the side. His sword flashed, and blood spurted out. The swordsman's head rolled off the ground. The swordsman was still in midair, "Sneak attack!"
It was as if he couldn't understand why Pei Zi Yun would send someone in front to attract the enemy's attention, while sneak attacking from behind.
"Pei!" Pei Zi Yun laughed coldly. This was the way of the art of war. Besides, you have so many people attacking, is that fair?
Seeing the head flying off, the Daoist who had led the way slashed at the corpse several times, as if he was venting his anger and fear. His eyes were bloodshot, "Who asked you to kill my senior brother? Who asked you to kill my senior brother?"
Seeing the man's condition, Pei Zi Yun sighed, "Go and meet up with my senior brother. You're not fit to fight anymore. You will die."
When the Daoist heard Pei Zi Yun's words, he sat down in the pool of blood and hugged his knees as he started crying.
Pei Zi Yun looked up at the sky and sighed, "If only I could live a peaceful life. How good would that be."
As soon as he finished speaking, he killed his way up. Along the way, there were corpses everywhere. There were only a few swordsmen who he killed immediately.
Main Hall
At this point, a fire was burning outside, and black smoke rose up into the air. Within the main hall, there was still some spiritual light. Zhang Yun had retreated, and there were several wounds on his body.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! " At the entrance of the Patriarch's Hall, almost everyone was gathered there. Several swordsmen were banging on the door. Elder Liu laughed coldly, "Break open the door, and use it as a shield to kill our way in. The rest of the people follow up. Yin Master will use his Dao arts to support us. We will concentrate our attacks and reduce our losses to a minimum."
"We've already lost many people."
Just as Elder Liu spoke, a Daoist stepped forward and whispered, "Elder, the swordsmen we've arranged to guard the path down the mountain have fallen."
Elder Liu was shocked, "You guys continue to follow the rules and kill your way in. I shall go and see who's the one making life difficult for Dark Altar Sect."
With a wave of his hands, several people followed behind him.
Along the way, Pei Zi Yun could hear the sounds of fighting and killing. Pei Zi Yun continued forward and turned a corner. Ahead of him was a pile of rubble, and a half burnt house.
As he continued forward, he saw many corpses. There were swordsmen, Daoists, Free Cloud Sect, and Dark Altar Sect. As he turned another corner, he saw light in front of him. More than ten people had surrounded the Patriarch's Hall.
