However, this did not mean that everyone could smash their heads against a tree. Fang Zhengzhi knew that the hardness of the head was the same as the Fourth Elder, it was not his forte.
This was awkward.
Because he could not cooperate at all.
What was even more awkward was that he could not blame Yan Qing, nor could he hope that Yan Qing would tolerate his fighting style. The reason was simple, Yan Qing did not know how to.
Yes, Yan Qing was a gifted bloodline, and his body was terrifyingly strong. However, he had not mastered the Dao of All Creation.
Of course, this kind of monster could be very effective at times.
For example, this battle with the Fourth Elder.
On the surface, this seemed like a coincidence. It felt as if the Fourth Elder had made a mistake in his decision, and Yan Qing and Fang Zhengzhi seized the opportunity.
However, the truth was not so.
As the Fourth Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, he was extremely experienced in battles. How could he make a mistake? Even when he was on the brink of insanity, he still retained his battle instincts and rationality.
To put it bluntly, even if the Fourth Elder was not enraged, and instead fought calmly, the outcome would not have changed.
The reason was simple …
The Fourth Elder's judgment was common sense.
When he charged towards Yan Qing and Fang Zhengzhi, Yan Qing used his hands to block his sword, and even kicked his crotch. Fang Zhengzhi, on the other hand, made use of the fact that they were fighting two against one, and forcefully avoided hitting his vitals, choosing to "perish together" with him.
It was obvious that Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Qing had a tacit understanding.
Because of this tacit understanding, the Fourth Elder, based on his battle experience, chose to forcefully cut in between Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Qing, so that he could forcefully separate the two of them with his sword.
As long as the two of them were separated.
Then, he could defeat them one by one.
This was common sense.
However, he did not expect that before he could even draw his sword, Yan Qing's head had already crashed into him. This was an accident.
After all, Yan Qing's fighting style could be said to be based on instinct. It felt as if he did not even have time to think.
However, in the Sacred Region, who would use their heads for no reason?
Therefore, regardless of whether the Fourth Elder was calm or not, this outcome was inevitable. This was because Yan Qing's uniqueness did not lie in his physique, nor did it lie in his ruthlessness in close combat. Instead, it lay in his completely unconventional way of fighting.
"Boom!" Another loud sound rang out.
The swaying Fourth Elder finally couldn't take it anymore. The strong dizziness and the strong impact on his head finally caused his body to tilt and fall to the ground.
From the moment the Fourth Elder angrily pulled out the Water-Fire Dual Swords, to the moment he fainted on the ground, it had to be said that the entire process was too short, so short that it felt like a drama.
But the truth was …
Even a powerhouse of the sage realm had a limit in terms of physical endurance. Especially when faced with a monstrous physique like Yan Qing's. Even a hard head wouldn't be able to withstand such an impact.
The Fourth Elder collapsed.
It could be said that the fall was very sudden.
However, the Fourth Elder's collapse caused the entire situation to change. This was because the Heaven Dao Pavilion, which originally had the absolute advantage, was now left with two Sages.
However, it was completely different for Fang Zhengzhi's side.
Although Yan Qianli was temporarily trapped and the Heavenly Oasis Saint was being suppressed by Sixth Elder, Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Qing were still alive and kicking. Together with Yan Xiu, who had become a Fallen Asura and had lost his consciousness, they were definitely enough to give Second Elder and Sixth Elder a headache.
In fact, Second Elder was indeed having a headache now.
This was because he really didn't expect the Fourth Elder to be defeated so quickly and in such a strange manner. The dignified Fourth Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion actually lost to the heavily injured Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Qing, who was in the Rebirth State?
"Rascal, come and help me, I can't hold on any longer!" Just as Second Elder was having a headache, the Heavenly Oasis Saint's voice rang out.
"We are both in the Sage State and you have dozens of disciples. Do you need my help?" Fang Zhengzhi's head was also hurting, and it was really hurting. It was so painful that he felt a little dizzy. Hence, after hearing the Heavenly Oasis Saint's words, he gave him a look of disdain.
"My strength is in alchemy, not fighting!"
"So?"
"So, come and help me!"
"I'm sorry, I'm injured!"
"…" The Heavenly Oasis Saint was speechless. In fact, he was speechless to the point of feeling wronged. This was because he was clearly in this situation because he came to help Fang Zhengzhi.
Of course, the real reason why he felt wronged was not because Fang Zhengzhi said that he was injured and did not want to help him. Instead, it was because Fang Zhengzhi had already rushed towards Second Elder's position while saying that he was injured. His speed was extremely fast, and he even brought Yan Qing along with him.
"Rascal, I've wasted two years of raising you!" When the Heavenly Oasis Saint saw Fang Zhengzhi pouncing towards Second Elder without even looking at him, he naturally could not help but scold him.
"As a Sage, even if you're not good at fighting, you still need to fight with dignity. Only then will you be able to match your state, right? Furthermore, even if you're not good at fighting, you have medicine. You've made so many great tonics. Just take a few of them and you might become stronger. "As Fang Zhengzhi slashed towards Second Elder, he replied to the Heavenly Oasis Saint.
"Rascal, you're the one who has become stronger now!" The Heavenly Oasis Saint scolded him again. However, when he saw Sixth Elder kill another Shadow Sect disciple, he gritted his teeth and took out a small green jade bottle with a pained expression. Then, he swallowed the few green pills in the jade bottle.
"Kaboom!"
The moment he swallowed the green pills, the Heavenly Oasis Saint's body sank and two footprints appeared on the ground beneath his feet.
At the same time, a violent aura came out of the Heavenly Oasis Saint's nose and mouth. It was a green air current that was filled with a chilling intent.
"Clear Fire Pill?!" When Sixth Elder saw the green air current coming out of the Heavenly Oasis Saint's nose and mouth, his expression changed slightly.
"You're wrong, this is the Heavenly Oasis Clear Fire Pill!" The Heavenly Oasis Saint denied.
"What's the difference?"
"Of course there's a difference, the name is different!"
"…" Sixth Elder's mouth moved. He really wanted to give the Heavenly Oasis Saint a look of disdain. However, in the end, he decided to use his sword to teach the Heavenly Oasis Saint a lesson. One must be honest!
"Boom!"
Just as the Sixth Elder was about to draw his sword, a loud bang came from the Second Elder's side. It was as if a huge golden bell had been struck.
In fact …
There was indeed a loud bang.
That was because when Yan Qing slashed at Second Elder, Yan Qing had already knocked into the huge golden bell that trapped Yan Qianli.
It felt as if he was a wild horse whose eyes were covered with a black cloth. He could not see what was in front of him at all.
The boom reverberated in the air.
The huge golden bell also emitted a golden radiance because of Yan Qing's knock. Within the radiance, extremely complicated golden symbols flashed continuously.
It could be seen that although the golden bell shook a little, it did not show any signs of shattering or cracking. It was as steady as a huge mountain.
Of course, Yan Qing would not give up.
After knocking into the bell and not reacting, he took three steps back as fast as he could. Then, a series of cracking sounds could be heard from his body.
It was obvious that Yan Qing was prepared to knock again.
Furthermore, one could tell from Yan Qing's expression that he was very determined. If the first time did not work, then he would knock it twice. If the second time did not work, then he would knock it three, four, five, six times. If he could not knock it open today, then he would knock it until tomorrow. It would be fine even if he knocked it for half a year or even a year, as long as he had the chance to do so. After all, this was his only option.
This was an unshakable determination.
However, this determination made Yan Qianli's eyes turn red. That was because any normal person would know that when a person was trapped in a huge bell, he definitely could not knock it open.
The reason was simple …
No one could take it.
Yan Qianli's eyes were really red from the shock. Most importantly, his ears could no longer hear the voices outside.
The only thing he could hear was a buzzing vibration.
One had to admit that Yan Qing's way of thinking was indeed very Yan Qing. Apart from being able to win by surprise, he could also make someone feel hopeless in life.
Obviously, Yan Qianli had a feeling that life was no longer worth living.
Especially when Yan Qing was about to knock it again, Yan Qianli's emotions could not be described with words. He only wanted to say, "Brat, if you have the guts, let's exchange places!"
Of course, to the former Prince Yan, who was once a tyrant of Western Liang, it was actually very difficult for him to say such words.
Therefore …
When Yan Qianli saw Yan Qing take three steps back and was about to knock it again with a determined look on his face, the only thing he could do was to wave his hand at Yan Qing. At the same time, he shouted with a hoarse voice, "My friend, my life is not worth pitying. Please think of the bigger picture and help Fang Zhengzhi!"
"Alright, please conduct yourself with dignity, senior!" Yan Qing was slightly stunned. Following which, a look of admiration flashed across his beast-like eyes. Then, he nodded his head firmly and turned around to knock Second Elder.
…
As the Second Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, he was naturally not weak. Furthermore, with the ancient bell in his hand, he would not be at a disadvantage against four or five Sages under normal circumstances.
In fact, Second Elder had indeed done it.
Although Yan Qianli had just become a Sage not long ago, he had become a Sage through the Dao of Asura of the Six Rebirth Dao Techniques. Therefore, he was much stronger than the average Sage.
However, even so, he was still trapped in the golden bell and could not move.
As for Yan Xiu …
He was indeed only in the Rebirth State. However, once he was controlled by the Power of Asura and became a Fallen Asura, his powerful fighting power was definitely comparable to that of an ordinary Sage.
The Second Elder was able to easily control the situation in a one-versus-two situation, trapping one and suppressing the other. He could definitely be said to have the demeanor of an extraordinary master.
However, he only had two fists and two legs.
When Fang Zhengzhi's extremely sharp sword slashed down, he had already started to feel a little strained. Now that he saw Yan Qing charging towards him, he really felt a little bitter in his heart.
That was because he could not retreat!
Once he retreated, the outcome of the battle would be decided.
The Heaven Dao Pavilion could not afford to lose like this. After all, if the Heaven Dao Pavilion were to lose miserably in such a situation where they had the absolute advantage, the reputation of the Heaven Dao Pavilion that had been around for thousands of years would be destroyed.
Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and endure.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he was slowly losing. Fang Zhengzhi's shoulder was indeed severely injured. However, the sword was not fatal. Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi had reached the Rebirth State and could rely on his powerful Origin Energy to recover.
On the other hand, the Heavenly Oasis Saint seemed to have changed into a different person. He raised and lowered his horsetail whisk repeatedly. All of them were "ultimate moves" that consumed a lot of his Origin Energy.
It seemed like Fang Zhengzhi was right. What if he could not win? That was not important. As long as he took some pills, even just a little, he might be able to grow stronger.
The Heavenly Oasis Saint had really grown stronger.
As he breathed out a green aura from his mouth and nose, his "ultimate moves" came one after another. Most importantly, the green aura seemed to be slowly spreading, as though it had formed a green territory around the Heavenly Oasis Saint.
"No, this isn't the Clear Fire Pill!" As an elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, the Sixth Elder was undoubtedly stronger than the Heavenly Oasis Saint in terms of combat power. If not for the Heavenly Oasis Saint's "ultimate move", the battle would have ended long ago.
However, after such a long stalemate, he still felt that something was amiss. This was because, based on what he knew, the Clear Fire Pill was derived from the words "clear" and "scorching". Clear meant to cleanse the body, while scorching meant to stimulate one's potential.
However, the Heavenly Oasis Saint's pill was slightly different. The clear aura that was emitted from his body did not dissipate. Instead, it slowly gathered, as though it was accumulating more and more.
"Of course, this is the Heavenly Oasis Clear Fire Pill!" The Heavenly Oasis Saint said proudly.
"But you just said that it's just a difference in names!" When the Sixth Elder heard this, his face darkened. After all, spending so much time on a pill refiner was a disgrace to his status.
