Everything had happened too quickly. From Luo Mantian's sneak attack to Gu Li and He Yidao's combined sneak attack, it had all happened in a split second. It had not even taken a few seconds.
The three of them had suddenly launched a sneak attack when the peak lord was caught off-guard, immediately dealing unimaginable damage to him. The damage was even enough to kill him!
After all, whether it be Luo Mantian, Gu Li, or He Yidao, they were all Grand Primes. Every single one of their attacks possessed the power of destruction. When such terrifying power struck the defenceless lord of the Heaven's Link Peak, it was possible to imagine just how terrifying of a blow the peak lord had to endure.
Immediately, the peak lord of the Heaven's Link Peak, who was known as the greatest expert on the Cloud Plane, was in great danger.
On the other side, the expressions of Tong Wuming, Lieyan Wuji, and Zhou Zhidao suddenly changed as they approached the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak. Looking at the sword that had pierced through the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak's waist and the fist that had pierced through the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak's chest, they felt the world spin around them.
At this moment, how could the three of them not understand that Luo Mantian of the Godsfallen clan, He Yidao of the Daoist Sect of Emergence, and Gu Li of the Heavshaking sect had all betrayed the Righteous Alliance?
Moreover, they had dealt a fatal blow when the peak lord was caught off-guard at such a crucial moment.
"Luo Mantian, He Yidao, Gu Li, you all deserve to die." The ancestor of the Firegod clan, Lieyan Wuji, had always been a hot-tempered person. Luo Mantian, He Yidao, and He Yidao's betrayal seemed to have completely infuriated him. The flames on his body suddenly swelled, sweeping through the entire region of outer space. It constantly twisted from the heat as the temperature of the region suddenly skyrocketed.
At this moment, the temperature emitted from Lieyan Wuji's body was thousands of times hotter than the sun. The flames that filled the sky turned into three long dragons that charged towards Luo Mantian, He Yidao, and Gu Li.
At the same time, Tong Wuming and Zhou Zhidao struck out without any hesitation. They abandoned their original opponents and attacked the three of them from afar. At the same time, they rapidly approached the peak lord of the Heaven's Link Peak.
However, the space that had become unstable due to their battle hindered their progress. As a result, they were much slower in approaching the peak lord of Heaven's Link Peak. They were nowhere near as fast as Luo Mantian and the other two.
Otherwise, they would only need a single step to arrive before the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak.
The Gentle Breeze Ancestor, Zheng Hu, and Changfeng Yun stopped as well. They were stunned by the sudden change in the Righteous Alliance. They stared at the people from the Righteous Alliance with furrowed brows, confused.
Only Wu Lu and Gong Ji, who knew the inside story, were excited. They looked at the Righteous Alliance that was killing each other and gloated.
"Gentle Breeze, what's going on?" Changfeng Yun asked the Gentle Breeze Ancestor through voice transmission. He was confused.
"Can't you tell now? Luo Mantian, He Yidao, and Gu Li of the Righteous Alliance have all joined the young star lord." Gong Ji's voice rang out. At the same time, she tossed the jade talisman with the secret technique of the Star Brilliance Mountain that the young star lord had given her to the people from the Four Symbols Alliance.
The Gentle Breeze Ancestor and the others all caught the jade talisman. They discovered that the jade talisman did not contain the so-called secret technique of the Star Brilliance Mountain at all. It was just a message from the young star lord. The rough idea was for Gong Ji to put on a show with Luo Mantian so that the peak experts of the Righteous Alliance would all take part in the battle and find an opportunity to launch a sneak attack on the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak.
The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak was a peak Third Heavenly Layer Grand Prime after all. He was more powerful than anyone on the Cloud Plane, so it was very difficult for a regular sneak attack to succeed. They could only create an opportunity in a chaotic battle.
"I see." Changfeng Yun and Zheng Hu came to a realisation. Immediately, their gazes towards the people from the Four Symbols Alliance changed. They were no longer as stern as before.
"From today onwards, the Righteous Alliance will cease to exist on the Cloud Plane," Zheng Hu sighed. Zheng Hu hissed. The Righteous Alliance originally had seven top-notch cultivators, but now, three of them had betrayed them. Only the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak, Tong Wuming, Lieyan Wuji, and Zhou Zhidao were left.
Moreover, the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak was heavily injured among the four of them. His strength had plummeted.
On the other hand, their Four Symbols Alliance had eight people in total, including the traitorous Luo Mantian and the other two. They basically possessed an absolute advantage.
"W- why are you like this …" The lord of the Heaven's Link Peak's face was rather gloomy. Large patches of his skin had already changed in colour. However, he did not care about his wounds at all. Instead, he looked at Luo Mantian, Gu Li, and He Yidao in great pain.
"The Righteous Alliance is done for. We've only chosen a path of survival," the ancestor of the Heavenly Clan said calmly. The ancestor of the Heaven Shaking Sect, Gu Li, said calmly. There was no trace of guilt in his eyes. Instead, he was calm and indifferent.
Afterwards, he and He Yidao retreated as quickly as possible, pulling away from the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak.
They understood the strength of the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak extremely well. He was a supreme expert who could fight against the Fourth Heavenly Layer Grand Prime, the Heavenless Demon Exalt. Even though he was heavily injured right now, he still posed a great threat to them.
At the same time, Lieyan Wuji's three fire dragons that were basically condensed from the Laws of Fire caught up as well, wrapping around the three of them.
"You three traitors! Old Man will turn you to dust!" Lieyan Wuji bellowed out. The Laws of Fire in the surroundings condensed, becoming more and more powerful.
Boom!
At this moment, there was a muffled sound. Luo Mantian broke free from Lieyan Wuji's fire dragons first. He used terrifying energy to shatter the fire dragons around him. Afterwards, he swung his dagger and gently slashed the fire dragons around He Yidao and Gu Li.
The fire dragon coiled around He Yidao and Gu Li immediately became like a deflated balloon. Its might weakened, and it was dispersed by the two of them.
Immediately, the three of them broke free successfully.
Aside from Luo Mantian, Gu Li and He Yidao were in horrible shape. Large patches of their skin had been charred black, and they were covered in dust.
"This Lieyan Wuji really is powerful. He really is worthy of being a Second Heavenly Layer Grand Prime," Gu Li looked at his pitch-black arm and exclaimed.
Only Luo Mantian was at the Second Heavenly Layer among the three of them. He Yidao and He Yidao were at the First Heavenly Layer, so it was naturally rather difficult for them to block Lieyan Wuji's furious strike.
"So what if he's at the Second Heavenly Layer? He'll die soon, "He Yidao said calmly before arriving with Gu Li and Luo Mantian. He stared at them coldly.
Lieyan Wuji, Tong Wuming, and Zhou Zhidao did not pursue them. Instead, they arrived beside the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak. Their faces were extremely ugly.
"This is the power of the curse. Luo Mantian, y- y- you sure are vicious," Tong Wuming stared at the green skin on the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak and said painfully. His voice was filled with fury.
He could tell with a single glance that the true fatal wound on the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak was not from He Yidao or Gu Li. Instead, it was the power of the curse on Luo Mantian's dagger.
The power of the curse was the greatest threat. It was like a venomous snake, constantly gnawing away at the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak's flesh. It basically drained away the lord of the Heaven's Link Peak's vitality at all times.
Compared to the power of the curse, the wounds from He Yidao and Gu Li were not as severe.
