Zhang Yan did not intend to kill the enemy with a single strike. His goal was only to delay Yang Yougong and the others in the formation. It should be known that he was not the only one in the formation. As long as they unleashed their full power, it would not be difficult to deal with the remaining people.
Ao Shao transmitted his voice, "Everyone, the Heaven and Earth Gate will not be sealed for long. We can lend Fellow Zhang a helping hand. Don't let this person escape."
The few Heaven Masters understood the situation. They knew that this was the best time to eliminate the enemy. They all channeled their magic power and activated their Fixed Hold Supernatural Power. They were experienced in battle. They knew that there was no need for them to use any powerful techniques. They only needed to immobilize Yang Yougong and the others so that they could not escape.
Yang Yougong and the others felt their bodies shake, and they seemed to be enveloped by layer upon layer of pressure, causing them to be unable to move any longer. They immediately knew that they'd been struck by the Immobilizing Divine Ability. If it was earlier, they only had to circulate their magic power slightly to struggle free. But now, they had to face the enormous hand that was pressing down towards them, so they didn't have the time to do all of this. They hurriedly withdrew all their defensive magic artifacts, and numerous protective glows appeared around their Avatars.
The huge hand seemed to be descending slowly. However, it only took a moment for it to reach the top of their heads. It came crashing down mercilessly.
Boom!
A loud crash that sounded like the shattering of heaven and earth could be heard. The remaining force caused the already dilapidated land below to completely collapse.
The old Taoist of Distant Enlightenment Heaven had the lowest cultivation among these people. He had just entered the first stage of the Crossing Perception realm not long ago. It was not easy for him to be able to fight from the beginning until now. He had almost used up all the protective treasures he had brought. At this moment, he was the first to be unable to bear it. Under the irresistible force, the treasure light on his body suddenly shattered. Because he was bound by the Fixed Technique, he had nowhere to run, so he could only move his body and avoid it.
Zhang Yan, who was in the sky, immediately sensed something. He glanced over, and in an instant, he found where this person had fallen. In the next moment, countless bolts of lightning exploded on his body. The latter had no strength to resist and was instantly scattered into a huge cloud of clear air. Just as he was about to reform, the lightning swept over like a flood, repeatedly wearing away at his vitality. In just a few breaths of time, his vitality was exhausted and he died on the spot.
After killing this person, Zhang Yan did not look at him again. He activated his transcendence energy and the five fingers of the huge hand slowly closed. It was as if he wanted to crush everyone in his palm!
When Ao Shao and the others saw this, they transmitted a few words to each other and used all their strength to maintain the Fixed Hold Technique. They did not give their opponent any chance to escape.
On the other hand, Yang Yougong and the others felt a strong sense of danger. At this moment, they were under pressure from two sides. At this moment, the best thing to do was to move his body and avoid the attack. This way, they would be able to escape immediately. However, they had seen Ju Yu and Luo Shu's fates. It was not difficult for them to deduce that Zhang Yan had the ability to predict a cultivator's body in an instant. Therefore, none of them dared to do so. They could only rely on their transcendence energy to forcibly hold on.
Heavenly Lord Huo An immediately circulated his Divine Decree and disappeared. He said to the others, "Fellow Daoists, this Daoist Zhang's transcendence energy is tyrannical. He is almost on par with a fourth tribulation cultivator. Now that Ao Shao and the others are holding him back, we are completely powerless to fight back. If we are trapped here, we will definitely not be able to escape. The only thing we can do now is to split up and flee."
The moment he said this, everyone fell silent. If they did that, it would be equivalent to admitting that they had lost this battle. In reality, they had used all their techniques and lost all their external help. They indeed had no hope of winning.
Yang Yougong pondered for a long time before he said in a deep voice, "Let's do it this way. Fellow Daoists, no matter who is able to escape, I hope that you can take care of your respective sects if possible."
He paused for a moment before he said, "I am someone that the other side must eliminate. In a while, I will break through the Fixed Hold Technique and escape. I will attract this person to chase after me, and all of you can find an opportunity to escape."
Heavenly Lord Huo An immediately said, "Alright, let's do it this way. Talking here is also exhausting my Divine Decree. Fellow Daoists, let's save some energy to deal with the enemies outside."
Han Su and Heavenly Lord Huo An did not speak, but it was obvious that they had tacitly agreed to this method.
Yang Yougong did not say anything else and withdrew his Divine Decree. Although he had said all sorts of things in the Fixed Hold Technique, it only lasted for a moment outside. When he saw that the giant hand was about to close, he spun the Root Fruit and at the same time, took out a talisman and shone it in the air. His entire body turned into a stream of clear air and escaped into the sky. Even though Ao Shao and the others tried their best to stop him, none of them were able to stop him.
Zhang Yan took a glance and immediately guessed what this person was up to. However, after he figured out the origin of this person, he ignored him and continued to stare at the remaining three people.
Ao Shao, on the other hand, frowned. Yang Yougong was undoubtedly the most important person among these people. Not only was he the leader of the resistance against Green Jade Palace, but he was also a cultivator who had undergone the Fourth Tribulation of Enlightenment. There were few Heavenly Lords who could fight against him. If this person escaped, Yu Huan would not be able to live in peace in the future. Those who participated in the siege today would definitely be on the list of people who would be targeted by him.
After considering all these, he transmitted a message using his Divine Decree. "Leave Yang Yougong to me. I will leave the rest to all of you." After he finished speaking, he turned into a stream of clear air and chased after the fleeing light.
Heavenly Lord Huo An and the others saw that Yang Yougong's departure didn't draw Zhang Yan's attention, so they knew that they couldn't delay any longer. They all activated their Root Fruits in unison to evade the transcendence energy lock and fled in different directions.
As for who would be able to escape in the end and who would be left behind, it would depend on their own luck.
Zhang Yan first looked at Heavenly Lord Huo An. After a while, his eyes flashed and a sword light flew over and pierced through Heavenly Lord Huo An's body. Heavenly Lord Huo An paused for a moment. After a while, his body gradually shattered into countless pieces like broken glass. In the end, he swallowed a mysterious hole and became the second person to follow in his footsteps.
However, his delay gave Han Su and Heavenly Lord Huo An an opportunity to escape. Both of them flew with all their might and disappeared into the horizon in an instant.
When Heavenly Lord Jian and the others saw that victory was right in front of them, how could they let them go? They split up and chased after them.
Zhang Yan changed his mind. Without him interfering, Heavenly Lord Jian and the others were more than enough to deal with Heavenly Lord Jian and the others. On the other hand, there was only Ao Shao at Yang Yougong's side. He might not be able to kill Ao Shao. When he thought of this, he sensed where Ao Shao's aura was and tore through the void to arrive at Ao Shao's location.
Ao Shao had already caught up to Yang Yougong and was fighting with him. However, his main goal was to stall for time. When he saw Zhang Yan rushing over, he took a step back and said, "Heavenly Lord Yang, you have lost your momentum. Seeing that it's not easy for you to cultivate, if you surrender now, I can discuss with Elder Peng and spare your life. What do you think?"
Yang Yougong sighed. Just now, he had only revealed his true strength, but he had already discovered that his landing spot had already been predicted by someone else. At this moment, he had no chance of victory even if he faced Zhang Yan alone. Moreover, Ao Shao was also here. There was indeed no need for him to fight anymore.
He shook his head and said, "There's no need. I'm useless and have implicated my fellow Daoists behind me. I have to give them an explanation eventually. It's a pity that after this battle, the Yuhuan Heavens will fall into the hands of the Green Jade Palace. The people of the world can only follow the rules and rely on Karma to survive. I'm afraid that there will be few who can transcend in this world."
After he finished speaking, he bowed to the two of them and sat down cross-legged. Then, he pointed a finger at the space between his eyebrows and severed his own Qi activity. Traces of cracks spread from his forehead to various parts, and then they shattered piece by piece. In the end, everything was swallowed by the profound hole that had suddenly opened up.
Ao Shao looked at the scene and said, "Once this person is dead, the rest of the people will no longer be fated."
Zhang Yan nodded slightly. At this moment, he sensed that two auras had disappeared one after the other. He smiled and said, "It seems like the matter has been settled. We should go back."
In the deepest part of the Inner Calamity Cave in the Chiwang Heavens, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure was lying on a crystal bed. This was the mortal body that Han Su had shed during her cultivation journey. However, at this moment, her body emitted a bright fluorescent light. Her eyelids moved a few times and then she opened her eyes.
She looked up and her eyes gradually focused. After taking in a few deep breaths of spiritual vigor, she slowly sat up and sighed. "I still lost."
She had cultivated the Grand Innocent Heavenly Maiden Body, which was also a secret technique with a strong background. Even if her Dharma body was destroyed, as long as she still had her Dharma Power Seed and her body that had entered the path was not destroyed, she would not really die. She could still continue to exist. However, her Dharma power would be gone.
Footsteps could be heard from outside. Then, the stone door was pushed open and Han Xiaoruo hurried in. She asked anxiously, "Mother, what happened? Why did you abandon your Dharma body?"
Han Su held her forehead and said, "It seems like I have calculated wrongly. Yang Yougong and the others will definitely lose. It seems like I can't stay in the Yuhuan Heavens any longer."
Han Xiaoruo's face turned pale and she said with a trembling voice, "Heaven Master Yang and the others have lost? But that person from the Green Jade Palace … "
Han Su shook her head and said, "Don't think too much. If that person is still here, how can I come back?" At this point, she sighed. "It's that Taoist Zhang. I didn't expect him to have such supernatural power." She raised her head and her expression became serious. "Once he is done with Yang Yougong and the others, he will definitely not let Chi Wang Heaven go. Now that I have lost all my Dharma power, go pack up and prepare to leave this place quickly."
Han Xiaoruo also knew that the matter was unusually serious. She calmed herself and said, "Then, Mother, where should we go?"
Han Su pondered for a while and sighed faintly. She said, "Now, we can only go to your father's place. However, I have not been in contact with him for tens of thousands of years. I don't know if he is still in that world."
Han Xiaoruo did not know much about her father and it was not convenient for her to ask too much. She said, "I will go prepare now."
Han Su suddenly thought of something and called out to her, "Wait, there might be spies from Green Jade Palace in Chi Wang Heaven. You must remember to be careful. Other than the servant in the cave, no one can be trusted."
Han Xiaoruo said, "Yes, I understand."
