Zhang Yan sized it up. The World of Determination was like a solid crystal. It was stagnant and lifeless.
He had seen the place where Daoist Shenchang resided, it looked like amber. Even though Shenchang was motionless, there was a bit of spirituality inside.
The two of them were both treasure spirits, but there was such a huge difference. This must be because they pursued different Daos.
He thought about it in his heart. Chao Ying was someone who sought help from outside. She was able to comprehend the Way of Truth. Logically speaking, her understanding of Dao should be far beyond her peers. However, when he fought with this person, he did not feel anything like that. Hence, there should be another reason for this.
He guessed that this might have something to do with the Twin Butterfly.
This World of Determination was not a door to outsiders. Hence, he had to force his way in.
With a thought, a golden light flashed. The Taiyi Golden Bead was already launched. Instantly, ripples appeared on the World of Determination.
Chao Ying had not recovered yet. Hence, her resistance was extremely weak. However, he could not rule out the possibility that she was pretending to be weak to lure him in. This was because in the World of Determination, one's fighting ability would be amplified to the maximum.
However, he did not feel any warning signs. This meant that the possibility was low.
If the opponent wanted to kill him, they would have paid a price. Otherwise, they would have used it a long time ago.
Moreover, the opponent was only one person left.
Moreover, he still had two allies outside. Even if he was trapped inside, he would still have help. When the time came, he could still break the World of Determination.
After summoning the Taiyi Golden Orb, he pressed down on it with his will and Dharmic powers to wear it down. As he continued to erode it, a crack finally appeared in the world.
The World of Determination was supposed to exist forever. However, after it was forcefully broken by an external force, if it was not maintained by the Master's spiritual energy, then it would flow like a river and gradually die.
Seeing that there was an opening to enter, Zhang Yan didn't wait any longer. His body didn't move, but with a thought, he turned into a shadow and entered.
This was not to guard against the enemy. He was afraid that if he went in personally, his spiritual energy would fight against the World of Determination. This would speed up the collapse of the World of Determination. If this caused the treasure to escape again, then it would be even more troublesome to find it again.
In a flash, the illusory body arrived at the Frozen World.
He looked around and saw nothing but a barren plain. There was not a speck of dust, and there was no sun, moon, or stars in the sky. There was no wind or clouds. There was only a clear sky. It was like a frozen picture. Although it seemed to be colored, it was too rigid.
He tried to use his senses to make a divination and found that the butterfly had indeed landed here. However, when his will reached the butterfly, it seemed to be frightened and hurriedly hid far away.
He looked elsewhere and saw that most of the treasures that Chao Ying had brought with her Just Now had returned to this place. At this moment, they were scattered all around and no one went to collect them. Apart from that, there were also a few scattered good fortune fragments.
But right now, the butterfly was the most important. There was no doubt that Chao Ying's consciousness was currently attached to it. Before she could reappear, he had to obtain it as soon as possible.
Although the treasure was hiding from him, it was useless. In a situation where there was no master, it couldn't even leave this World of Determination. It couldn't hide from him at all.
With a command in his heart, his figure flashed. In the next moment, he'd already appeared in front of the treasure, and he merely stretched out his hand and grabbed it with ease.
A sense of panic came from the treasure. This was the will it had entrusted to Chao Ying. It was because of this that Chao Ying was able to return to her original state Just Now. However, there must have been a price for this, or else it would have taken so long to use it during the battle.
Now, as long as he refined this treasure, the treasure spirit would never be able to return to the Void and would only be able to fall into eternal silence.
At this moment, a will of submission came from the treasure. It was mixed with a hint of pleading, as if it was begging him to show mercy.
Zhang Yan remained unmoved. There was no oath to the Spirit Refinement Realm, so he was merely making a promise to escape. If he really let it go, then he would definitely be in a completely different situation. He would absolutely not allow such a hidden danger to exist.
He pondered for a moment before he flicked his sleeve, and all the treasures and Fortune Fragments that were wandering around here were swept away. After that, he emerged from World Halt, and he swiftly fused with his main body and returned to being one.
He opened his palm and looked at the butterfly. In an instant, a ball of clear light leaped up like a flame.
Under his gaze, it slowly melted like wax. At the same time, the remnant will on it turned into many images that continuously leapt out. However, as the object slowly melted, the images also gradually dissipated, turning into nothingness in the end.
With a wave of his sleeve, Chao Ying no longer existed.
However, this didn't mean that she was dead. There was no such thing as life and death for a Spirit Refinement Realm expert. It was just that without something to entrust her to, she would be driven into eternal silence and would never be able to return to the Void.
At this moment, the World of Determination also melted like ice and headed towards destruction. In just a moment, it completely disappeared.
At this moment, he suddenly felt something and turned his gaze to a certain direction. With a faint smile, he moved his feet and returned to where he came from.
Daoist Qing Sheng stood in his World of Determination. Ever since Chao Ying came to find him, he had been watching the battle.
Previously, he had indeed received an item from Chao Ying, but he had no intention of keeping his promise.
According to his original plan, Zhang Yan would most likely not be able to defeat Chao Ying and Daoist Yi Han. Thus, he could appear at the most crucial moment and request to release Bu Tian in exchange for saving Zhang Yan. This way, he could achieve his goal ahead of time.
However, he never expected that the person who was defeated in this battle would be Chao Ying. From the looks of it, she seemed to have fallen into eternal silence.
Just Now, when he saw Zhang Yan's gaze, his heart skipped a beat. He knew that the latter had sensed his gaze.
He couldn't help but lower his head and ponder.
Originally, he had planned to use the excuse of seeking protection to conspire against Bu Tian, but now he didn't think so.
In this battle, it was not difficult to see that Zhang Yan's technique was profound and his methods were brilliant. Now that he had a few allies to help each other, it could be said that he had already gained the upper hand. There was no point in playing these petty tricks anymore. The best strategy was to form a good relationship with Zhang Yan.
He couldn't help but rejoice that he hadn't shed all pretense of cordiality with Zhang Yan. He still had a door to communicate with him.
However, there was still a problem that needed to be solved. This time, no matter what his plan was, in the end, he didn't lend a helping hand. If it wasn't for Chao Ying's words, it would have been fine. But since he was involved, he needed to go and explain himself.
Zhang Yan returned to his original position in the blink of an eye. Daoist Zhanyuan came to greet him and asked with concern, "Fellow Daoist, how is it?"
Zhang Yan replied, "Rest assured, Fellow Daoist. That person's item of entrustment has been destroyed by I, so he has fallen into eternal silence. There is no longer any worry of future troubles."
Daoist Zhanyuan heaved a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good." Just Now, he had seen that Chao Ying had a lot of magic treasures. If he came again, it would be really troublesome.
At this time, Zhang Yan looked at Boy Divine Chang. The latter was biting his finger while staring at Daoist Yi Han, who was surrounded by Bu Xutian's Weili. But because of Bu Xutian's Weili, he couldn't enter.
He changed his mind. It would have been fine if Daoist Yi Han had been swallowed by Boy Divine Chang. But if Chao Ying had also been swallowed, he didn't know how much her cultivation would have improved. Fortunately, she was already dead, so there was no need to think about it anymore.
He said to Boy Divine Chang, "I will leave this person to Fellow Daoist. You can do whatever you want. With I here, this power won't stop you."
Boy Divine Chang nodded.
When Yi Han heard this, he was terrified and shouted, "Can you let me go? Previously, I listened to Chao Ying's orders because of her power. I had no choice. If you are willing to let me go, I can be ordered around by you."
Zhang Yan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, ignoring him.
Shen Chang Boy approached him slowly. Wherever he passed, Bu Xutian's mighty force did not hinder him at all. However, Daoist Yi Han could not move at all. The fear on his face became more and more intense, but there was a hint of ferocity in the depths of his eyes, as if he had been cornered.
Boy Divine Chang quickly arrived in front of him and opened his small hand. Without seeing what he did, Daoist Yi Han turned into a ball of spiritual light and flew into his body.
After a Treasure Spirit was swallowed by its own kind, the Primordial Essence Qi it brought out from the Treasure Fetus would be lost, and its connection with the world would be completely severed. At that time, it would undoubtedly be thrown into eternal silence. If there was no great fortune, it would never be able to appear in front of many of its peers.
Boy Divine Chang swayed a little and yawned. A few lotus leaves appeared on his body, and he lay down on the surface of the leaves. His body was slightly curled up, and it seemed that he had fallen into a deep sleep.
Zhang Yan could sense that there were two Qi dynamics violently colliding in his body. Although this time it was Boy Divine Chang who took the initiative to swallow Daoist Yi Han, it was also a battle. Whether it could succeed or not, and how far it could go, all depended on its own ability.
After seeing the consciousness left by Chao Ying on the magic treasure, he also understood that every time a Treasure Spirit swallowed its own kind, it had to go through a test. This was also a kind of training for the Dao Heart. If it could pass the test perfectly, then its Dao and Dharma power would increase greatly, but if there was a flaw, the harvest would be reduced. The most dangerous situation was to be swallowed by its own kind.
Of course, such a situation was not easy to happen. Generally speaking, the one who took the initiative to swallow must be stronger than the other. If it wanted to swallow an elephant, it must be a snake that had the help of an outsider.
Although he had helped Boy Divine Chang this time, the latter's Dao was originally higher than Yi Han's, so the possibility of this was not high.
At this time, Daoist Zhanyuan said, "Fellow Daoist Shenchang, I am guarding the place. Since you have nothing to do here, I will take my leave."
Zhang Yan nodded and said, "Thank you for coming to help this time."
Daoist Zhanyuan was ashamed. He cupped his hands and bowed, then left.
Zhang Yan watched as she left. It was hard to say when the Child Divine Chang would come out with an answer, so he didn't pay much attention to her. After a moment, he flicked his sleeve, releasing all of the items Ying had left behind.
