Master Xuan Hong immediately led the rest of the people back to take charge of the formation. The destruction of Mount Luo Monastery was almost certain. All he could do now was to try his best to delay.
The monastery had been in operation for millions of years, so the formation was very sturdy. It was just that Zhenren Gong and the others could not use it due to their lack of mana. As the Sect Master, he did not have such limitations. With his full effort, the formation was finally stabilized.
Zhang Yan's doppelganger noticed that the formation was much more stable than before. It could not be broken at the moment, so he stopped using his mana and waited for the real body to arrive.
On the other side, Elder Peng saw that the Xuanshui had retreated. He was afraid of the treasure mentioned by Master Xuan Hong, so he arranged for some weaker cultivators to retreat to the outside of the ring. He planned to call them back when the situation was stabilized.
At this moment, a spiritual treasure leaped out and turned into a fourteen or fifteen-year-old girl. She blinked her bright eyes and said, "Elder, Just now, someone broke through the void and left this world."
Elder Peng sneered, "Let them be."
If someone went to other worlds through the ring, Green Jade Palace would know immediately, so there was nothing to be afraid of. However, if they went to the Void Primordial Sea, they could not be stopped and there was no need to stop them because it was not a good place to go. Without external medicine, even a Third Degree Realm cultivator would die when their Primordial Qi was exhausted. Moreover, there was a high chance that they would run into the void creatures. If they did not find a world to hide in, their chances of survival were not high.
But at this moment, he thought of something and sent a message to Zhang Yan, "Zhenren Zhang, it seems that someone from Luo Mountain Monastery has escaped through the void. If he leaves with the divine item, it will be difficult to catch up."
Zhang Yan was still in the middle of his journey. After hearing this, he smiled and said, "Thank you, Elder Peng, for telling me this. However, the treasures passed down by the ancestor, if this person could control them, they wouldn't be in this world anymore."
The patriarch ordered the monastery to be guarded here. If he could take it away at will, then it would be meaningless for him to come here.
He rode on the Black Tortoise and flew forward. After about a quarter of an hour, the clouds in front of him parted and he was already in front of the Luo Mountain Monastery. The avatar swayed and turned into a ray of light that merged into his body.
Not long after, Elder Peng's spiritual boat arrived as well, bringing Daoist Tongguang and Guo Ju to meet up with him. At the same time, a long dragon roar came from the sky.
Following that, four beams of light descended from the sky and revealed themselves. The four Heavenly Masters had once again sent their avatars to this world. Compared to their enormous strength, this was almost no loss at all.
Elder Peng inquired with Zhang Yan, then turned around and said, "Fellow Daoists, Master Xuan Hong has already returned to the sect to hide. Why don't we work together to destroy this formation?"
The others naturally had no objections to this.
Zhang Yan said, "Just Now, when I attack this formation, I see that it is turning and closing as I please. It is like flowing water flowing through a courtyard. The Qi is scattered but not gathered, so I can't stop it. In order to destroy it, I need all of you to work together."
This formation was revolving and closing at every moment. The continuous attacks were almost useless against it. After the last attack, the formation would return to its original state in the next moment. In other words, no matter how many people there were or how fierce the attacks were, as long as they could not completely destroy the formation in one go, there would be no results.
However, since they knew the profoundness of this place, it was much easier to deal with it. After a short discussion, everyone split up and went to different places. Then, they connected their spiritual wills and activated their mana at the same time to attack the formation in front of them.
In fact, no matter what, because everyone's power did not come from the same place, there would always be a sequence. However, the circulation of the formation could not be completely without gaps, which depended on the ability of the attacker and the defender.
Guru Xuan Hong only managed to hold on for a moment before he felt a little overwhelmed. The faster the formation changed, the more his mana and divine will would be consumed. However, he could not stop at this moment. Otherwise, it would only take a few breaths for the people outside to break into the formation. He was slightly anxious, "I hope Zhenren Gong can convince Zhenren Kun, otherwise, I can only retreat to the Cave of Divine Treasures early."
At this time, outside Xuan Hong Heaven, Gong Er and Guan Er En quickly found the place where Yun Kun landed. After seeing the void creature, they hurriedly went forward and bowed to him.
Zhenren Gong said, "Zhenren Kun, our Luo Mountain Monastery is in danger. There are people from the outside attacking us, and now we can't resist anymore. I hope Zhenren can save us for the sake of our past relationship!"
Yu Kun's voice came and asked, "I know about this. Why do you want to occupy the Black Stone and not give it to the person chosen by the patriarch?"
In the face of such a question, Zhenren Gong was suddenly speechless.
Zhenren Guan also came forward and bowed, and pleaded, "It's our fault for being greedy and doing something wrong. But now, even if I'm willing to take out the Black Stone, I'm afraid I won't be able to exchange it for peace. Zhenren Kun, Luo Mountain Monastery's million years of inheritance is still passed down by the patriarch. Can you bear to see it end here?"
Yu Kun thought for a moment and said puzzledly, "Since it's born from things, it should also end because of things. Why can't I bear to?"
Zhenren Guan suddenly felt a chill in his heart.
Zhenren Gong knew that he could not persuade Yu Kun. In fact, he did not have any hope before he came here. If Yu Kun was willing to help them, he would not have let them in. He bowed and said, "Sorry to disturb you."
After that, he left with Zhenren Guan.
Zhenren Guan said, "Where should I go now?"
If they returned to the realm now, it would take several years. Even if the war situation was not settled by then, they might not be able to return to the mountain gate smoothly, so it was not a good choice.
Zhenren Gong said, "Before we came out, the Sect Master had secretly instructed us to go to Chiwang Heaven and pass a message to Heavenly Lord Han when we get there."
Zhenren Guan said, "I'm willing to follow the Sect Master's arrangement."
At this time, in the Hidden God Cave, Zhenren Wan and Zhenren Bai had worked together to evacuate all the disciples in the monastery. But they all knew that if the mountain gate formation was broken, the result would be the same sooner or later.
Zhenren Bai looked around and said, "I've been cultivating in the monastery for many years, but this is the first time I've come here."
Zhenren Wan sighed, "I hope this is not the last time."
Zhenren Bai looked at him and advised, "Zhenren Wan, why are you so sad? Since the Sect Master told me to wait here, there must be a way."
Zhenren Wan shook his head. He quietly sat on the main seat and turned the formation here.
Guru Xuan Hong had said that the restrictions here were stronger, and he was not lying. Strictly speaking, this place was connected to the array in the Outer Realm, and Luo Mountain Monastery had used this as a foundation to make many arrangements here. However, he understood that since the array outside could not stop anyone, it was hard to say how long this place would last.
Another hour passed, and there was a loud noise that sounded like a mountain collapsing outside. Even the God Trove Cave shook a few times, and the spiritual vigor became scattered.
Zhenren Bai was startled, and said bitterly, "The mountain gate formation has been broken."
Even though he spoke calmly, when the matter was right in front of him, he still felt a sense of impending disaster. He stood up and took a look outside. He saw several rays of clear light flying towards them. He hurriedly turned around and said, "It's the sect leader and a few spiritual masters. Quickly open the formation door."
Daoist Master Wan hurriedly let them in. After the clear lights entered the cave, they landed on the ground and each of them gathered and revealed themselves.
Master Xuan Hong gave the order, and everyone went to their respective positions. Then, his gaze fell on Zhenren Wan and he said, "Take me to the place where the divine item is placed."
Zhenren Wan bowed and led the way.
Master Xuan Hong followed behind with Zhenren Bai.
Not long after, the three arrived at the deepest part of the cave.
Master Xuan Hong looked at the black stone floating in the air and said, "Zhenren Wan, go take this divine item down."
Zhenren Wan said yes and bowed. Then, he walked forward and took out a glass jade box. He used his magic power to take the black stone from the air and placed it inside. Then, he carefully walked down.
Guru Xuan Hong's gaze was unblinkingly fixed. Seeing that there were no hiccups, he let out a sigh of relief. The Profound Water had retreated for no reason, and he was afraid that something had happened to the Profound Stone. If that was really the case, then all his plans would be for naught.
Zhenren Wan asked carefully, "What do you want to do with this divine item, Sect Master? Are you going to hand it over? "
Master Xuan Hong snorted and said coldly, "Although I can't take it, I don't want to hand it over just like that. I can share it with others."
Zhenren Wan was startled. "Share it with others?"
Master Xuan Hong said with his hands behind his back, "I know that a few heavens are also coveting this item. They aren't on good terms with the Green Jade Palace. If I agree to take out the black stone and study it with them, I should be able to get them to come and save me."
Zhenren Bai said hesitantly, "Now that the Green Jade Palace and the Five Realms Sky Master are here, even if Sect Master is willing to share it with them, will they really come?
Master Xuan Hong said with certainty, "Of course they will. The Green Jade Palace isn't what it used to be. It's rumored that the almighty is long gone, and the secret of achieving True Yang is something everyone in the heavens desires. It's just that they couldn't pass through the Outer Sky Restriction Formation in the past. But now, if I give them a chance to interfere, they definitely won't be able to hold themselves back."
Zhenren Wan was shocked. He couldn't help but say, "If that's really the case, then I'm afraid an unprecedented war will be stirred up in the heavens. Many living beings will be implicated, and at that time, even the demons and monsters from beyond the heavens will take the opportunity to enter."
Master Xuan Hong said with an indifferent expression, "Since I've been forced to this step, then no one will be safe. And if I don't do this, how can we protect our sect?"
At that moment, there was a rumbling sound coming from outside. He sensed it and found that if this continued, this place could only last for half a day at most. Knowing that it was too late, he ordered, "Zhenren Bai, go and bring a Dual Realms Dial here. Now that Zhenren Song is outside, I can have him send a message to those heavens." At the same time, he said to Zhenren Wan, "Zhenren Wan, it's not good to leave the divine item here. Quickly take it to the outside world. Without my order, don't come back."
Zhenren Wan hesitated for a while, then silently bowed and put away the glazed jade box that contained the profound stone. He then used his technique to break through space and escape to the outside world, only to find that he had fallen into the Outer Sky Restriction Formation. He tried to find a way out, but after searching for a long time, he couldn't get out at all. It was as if the restriction formation was targeting him.
At this time, he seemed to understand something. Looking at the jade box in his hand, he sighed. "Since you don't want to leave this place, why should I force you? Today, I'll fulfill your wish and send you to the place you should go. " He turned around and walked toward the Ten Thousand Empty Ring. This time, there were no more obstructions. Soon, he reached the door and stepped through, instantly returning to Xuan Hong Heaven.
