Ouyang Yangwen's face became extremely sunken when he heard that. Although the remaining experts of the World of Forsaken Saints could still easily sweep through this world, the appearance of the divine hall had turned the situation around. They had originally possessed the upper hand, but now, they were in such an awkward position. The Saint Emperors and all the Receival protectors had been bound by the azure streams of light from the divine hall. It was impossible for them to break free. The Returnance experts, including Ouyang Yangwen, were also bound by the streams of light. With the death of a Receival protector and Cheng Jingyun's departure, the restraints on the five of them became even more intense.
Originally, Ouyang Yangwen wanted to exhaust the power of the divine hall in Mercenary City. Once the divine hall ran out of energy, the people hiding within would be like turtles in a jar. They would not be able to escape even if they wanted to. At that time, not only would they be able to wipe out all the Origin realm experts in the world in a single stroke, but the divine hall would also belong to them.
However, Ouyang Yangwen had never thought that the situation would be the exact opposite. Not only did they fail to exhaust the power of the divine hall, but they had also become passive.
Even the extremely confident Ouyang Yangwen felt a sliver of pressure. The azure light had strengthened, making it impossible for him to break through them. He could only use his powerful origin energy to push them apart. Not only did he have to divert a portion of his energy to stop the strengthening of the azure light, but he also had to suppress the wound on his abdomen and prevent the power of the Laws of the Sword from spreading through his body. Under such circumstances and facing Jianchen's sharp attacks, Ouyang Yangwen could only barely maintain the upper hand. He was no longer able to crush Jianchen in a dominating manner like before, let alone stop Tie Ta.
At this moment, another miserable cry rang out. The second Receival expert from the World of Forsaken Saints had died at Tie Ta's hands. His head had been chopped off by Tie Ta's axe, wiping out his soul.
As soon as the protector died, the five Returnance elders from the World of Forsaken Saints immediately felt the azure light become slightly more powerful. All of their faces changed drastically, and even Ouyang Yangwen struggled to remain composed.
If all the Receival protectors were slain by Tie Ta, they would no longer be able to shoulder the burden of the divine hall. The azure streams of light would probably become so powerful that even Returnance elders would not be able to break free. At that time, only death would await them.
Moreover, if so many Origin realm experts died here, the World of Forsaken Saints would not be able to bear the loss.
"Elder Ouyang, the situation is becoming worse and worse for us. Let's retreat first," a elder said sterly. He glanced at the tunnel below from time to time. He had clearly made up his mind. If Ouyang Yangwen wanted to remain here, he would flee even if he had to risk offending Ouyang Yangwen.
Ouyang Yangwen clearly understood the situation as well. A sliver of humiliation appeared in his eyes as he clenched his teeth, "Everyone, retreat to the World of Forsaken Saints!"
The other elders did not hesitate at all. They immediately used their full strength to break free from the restraints of the azure light. However, they did not enter the tunnel immediately after breaking free. Instead, they all arrived beside the Receival protectors to save them.
The streams of light that trapped the Receival protectors were clearly much weaker. They were unable to withstand a single blow from a Returnance expert. With the assistance of a few Returnance experts, all the trapped protectors were freed in just a short while.
At the same time, Ouyang Yangwen furiously bellowed out. He forced Jianchen back with a full-powered strike. He quickly swung his sword and shot out a strand of sword Qi, cutting through the azure light that trapped the Holy Emperor. He took everyone back into the tunnel, returning to their world in horrible shape.
The divine hall did not pursue them, allowing them to flee like that. If the divine hall continued to restrain them, they could have lost half of their experts or even all of them, but at the same time, all the Origin realm experts supporting the divine hall would have used up all their origin energy to achieve such a victory. Even their origin energy would not have been enough to wipe out all the Origin realm experts from the World of Forsaken Saints.
Once they used up all their origin energy in a world without origin energy, they would not be able to recover even after several decades or centuries. Without their support, the divine hall's power would be drastically reduced. They would not be able to fend off the next attack from the World of Forsaken Saints.
After the people from the World of Forsaken Saints retreated, the supreme divine hall quickly descended from the sky. It blocked the exit of the tunnel, blocking it.
The intense battle between the two worlds finally came to an end. All the survivors of the four races on the Tian Yuan Continent let out a sigh of relief. The joy of victory appeared on many of their faces.
Many Sainthood experts poured all their Saint Force into the divine hall without holding back at all, so that the divine hall could unleash even greater power. Many of them directly collapsed to the ground as soon as the battle ended. They had used up all their energy, and some of them had even used secret techniques to burn their essence blood. They were haggard and extremely weak.
Tian Jian, who controlled the divine hall, and the surrounding Origin realm experts all let out a sigh of relief. Tian Jian's face paled. He was not the only one. Even the surrounding Origin realm experts paled slightly as well. The consumption of energy from the divine hall was just too great. Although they had only used it for a short while, all of them had used up around fifty percent of their origin energy. If the Origin realm experts from the World of Forsaken Saints had not retreated, they would not have been able to last much longer.
"I never thought that the World of Forsaken Saints would attack so quickly. Fortunately, I refined the divine hall left behind by city lord Mo Tianyun in time, or the consequences would have been unthinkable," said Tian Jian. He felt extremely fortunate. If his divine hall had arrived a little later, the situation would have been completely different.
"I never thought that the divine hall would be so powerful. Even late Returnance experts can't shake it. Mo Tianyun really is the greatest human expert after all. His true strength probably surpassed Returnance in the past," Shangguan Mu 'er sighed in amazement as she studied the divine hall.
"Hmph, my master's strength is beyond your imagination. So what if they're Returnance experts? My master can easily wipe them out with a single finger. When the war god of the Hundred Races attacked our Tian Yuan Continent in the past, he was even more powerful than that Ouyang Yangwen, but he was still easily stopped by my master. If it weren't for the fact that my master was unwilling to kill him, it would have been impossible for him to escape," Xiao Ling said proudly.
