Daoist Skyreach couldn't help but sigh after being rejected. He said, "What I said just now was to put an end to the conflict between our two sects, to fight against the enemy together. However, even though I was sincere, Fellow Daoist didn't allow it. It looks like this matter can only be resolved through a battle between us."
Zhang Yan's eyes flickered. Daoist Skyreach's words pushed the blame of starting a war onto him. Although he didn't know why Daoist Skyreach was so calculative, he naturally wouldn't let his opponent get what he wanted. "You must be joking. I rejected your proposal not because I want to fight you, but because this place of fortune is mine to begin with. Even Fellow Daoist said that you're only borrowing it, so why would I insist on fighting?" Daoist Skyreach's eyes flickered slightly.
Daoist Skyreach sighed softly. It was hard to tell if he was sincere or not. He cupped his hands together and said, "Since I have nowhere to go, I can only fight with all my might. If I offend you later, please don't blame me."
Zhang Yan bowed in return and said indifferently, "You've been talking for a long time, so I presume you've already made your arrangements. I will have to experience your brilliance today."
He could naturally tell that Daoist Skyreach was setting up something after he entered this world, so he was using words to delay. However, he had no intention of stopping him. Daoist Skyreach was on his home ground, so even if he didn't speak to him, he could still use other methods to accomplish this. Moreover, it wasn't as if he didn't gain anything. Taking advantage of the time he had Just Now, he had thoroughly deduced and sensed this place of fortune, so he had a rough idea of what was going on here.
Daoist Skyreach didn't say anything else. He waved his sleeve, and a rumbling sound echoed throughout the land of fortune. Endless rays of light sprinkled down from the sky, accompanied by a mighty tide of magic power.
With a thought, Zhang Yan's profound energy instantly grew behind him, stirring up boundless mysteries. Thunderclaps reverberated through the worlds and stopped the rays of light.
In the past, when he fought others, it was difficult for anyone in the same generation to stop him once he used his magic power. Almost all of them would be forced back on the spot, and even if they were locked in a stalemate for a moment, they would try to avoid him and not fight him head-on.
However, this time, both of them seemed to be evenly matched.
This wasn't because Daoist Skyreach's magic power was enough to resist him, but because the two of them were currently in a place of fortune controlled by someone else.
Although Zhang Yan also had the Mighty Power of the three Lands of Creation that he could borrow, his own mana could be generated at will. However, the Mighty Power of Creation was not like this. Within the Towering Heavens Boundary, it had to come from the outside and could not be generated out of thin air. After passing through this layer of barrier, the effectiveness of the Mighty Power was greatly reduced. It was equivalent to using his own strength to fight the enemy, which was why such a situation occurred. Fortunately, he had already expected this before he came, so he was not too surprised.
Not long ago, Daoist Skyreach had transformed into an avatar to save Xuan Che and Xuan Che, so he had witnessed the entire battle between Zhang Yan and Zhang Yan. Among them, Zhang Yan's tyrannical magic power was what he was most afraid of. Now that Zhang Yan had blocked the attack, he immediately calmed down and thought that he had a chance of winning. He said, "Fellow Daoist, you have made a mistake. If you had arrived later, I would not have been able to defeat you. However, you rushed here in such a hurry and gave me a chance."
Zhang Yan simply smiled and did not argue with him. If he had not arrived at this moment, there was no way that Daoist Skyreach would have come out to fight him so easily. Moreover, even if he could not easily overwhelm his opponent with his magic power, he was still superior to him. It was just that it was not as obvious, and he could not see any advantage in this. However, for someone like him who was used to fighting, as long as they continued to fight, it would not be difficult for him to accumulate small victories into big ones, and small victories into big ones.
Both of their magic power clashed dozens of times. It looked like they were surging violently, but in reality, they did not use any real tricks because both sides were still probing each other.
Once Soul Refinement cultivators engaged in a battle of magic power, it was very difficult to conceal too many things. Through this kind of battle, one could roughly determine each other's depths. However, cultivators who had passed the Enlightenment stage could conceal certain areas, so if one wanted to truly understand their opponent's strength, they would have to continue probing and deducing during the battle.
Even though Daoist Skyreach had the right time and the right place, he was still very careful at this moment. He constantly observed Zhang Yan's movements and repeatedly pondered how he could restrain his opponent. He had no choice but to be so cautious because this was the only place he could entrust himself to. If he were to lose this battle, there would be no way out unless he escaped into the void. However, that existence might not let him go.
Zhang Yan did not know much about Daoist Skyreach either. Even though he had fought with the consciousness incarnation before, he did not think that he could determine his opponent's true strength with just that.
At first, the incarnation was merely a Weili, and did not have any traces of itself. Later, the consciousness incarnation went to search for the arcane artifact, so it could be seen that it did not want to compete with him for the land of fortune. As long as it was careful, it would definitely not reveal too much about itself. So, if he used that as a reference, he would definitely make a wrong judgment.
Against an opponent who could be said to be an unfamiliar opponent, and one who had fallen into his opponent's territory, he would naturally adopt a steady approach.
After probing for a long time, the two finally began to reveal some of their techniques. Daoist Skyreach was the first to summon an arcane artifact shaped like a star. It revolved around his body, and wherever the light passed, it could repel external magic power, allowing him to attack and defend at the same time.
Zhang Yan didn't stand on ceremony. Before he came here, he had casually refined two magic tools precisely for this moment. With a point of his finger, a strand of clear energy descended. When the golden light shone upon it, it dissipated. Everywhere the clear energy passed, it swept away all foreign forces. Moreover, it was present everywhere, making it difficult for others to see through its mysteries.
The two Venerable Ones were fighting here, and this time, they were not consciousness incarnations. Furthermore, Daoist Skyreach was repeatedly using the Weili of fortune to help him. When their magic power collided, who knew how many realms would collapse.
If this continued, it would definitely refine the myriad realms and skies here, leading to the death of countless living beings.
Most of these living beings were the cultivators of the various realms who had worshiped Daoist Skyreach in the past, and there were also the disciples he had taken in when he opened up the world here. As the ruler of this place, it was very simple for him to protect them. He only needed to divert a portion of his power to slightly protect them.
But now that he was fighting with Zhang Yan, although he looked calm on the surface, in reality, he had to calculate the usage of every bit of power. How could he bear to do such things? So he simply ignored it. Moreover, as the Grand Supreme of the Refined God Realm, even if all the realms collapsed and all the living beings died, as long as he won this battle, he could rebuild it with a single thought.
As the battle between the two gradually intensified, the entire realm finally fell into chaos. Other than the collision of the Weili, it was no longer possible to distinguish the past and the future.
Zhang Yan had experienced many battles along his path of cultivation, and it wasn't the first time he had fought against his peers in the Refined God Realm. He was very good at seizing opportunities and deducing battles, and could be said to be very experienced. Therefore, although the two sides were still fighting back and forth, inadvertently, the momentum of victory was gradually tilting towards his side.
Daoist Skyreach originally thought that he had a chance of winning this time since he could defeat his opponent with his magic power. But as the battle progressed, he discovered that there were flaws in every one of his calculations. He always felt like he was being restrained in every aspect and couldn't relax.
Although he had calculated countless times in his mind every time he attacked, and logically speaking, there shouldn't be any flaws, it was a completely different matter when it actually happened. This was especially true when he was fighting against someone of the same generation. It was even more impossible to calculate every step of his opponent's movements. The winner here depended on past battle experience and the cultivator's own skills.
Daoist Skyreach realized that if he didn't handle a certain part properly, he would most likely be forced into a disadvantageous position. Then, he would be defeated by Zhang Yan like Xuan Che and Ren Du, and this land of fortune would also be handed over to him.
When he thought of this, his heart also palpitated. Before he could actually land on that step, he shook his sleeve and threw out a stacked conch.
Zhang Yan felt his vision darken, and the world around him suddenly changed. Originally, when he looked up, it was a boundless expanse of emptiness, but now, the place he was in was divided into countless twisting boundaries, and they were constantly twisting and changing.
He didn't know what kind of artifact it was, but it actually sucked him in so quickly. Normally, there was no artifact that could trap a Refined God Realm cultivator, not even a supreme treasure of fortune. Therefore, this place must have been set up in the surroundings in advance, and it was connected to this world. As long as he entered this place, it was equivalent to entering this artifact.
He sensed for a moment, and at this moment, there were only two ways to escape. The first was to use his own magic power to break the barrier and directly charge out, and the second was to follow the rules of this place and find the exit.
Because this artifact was connected to this land of fortune Weili, it was very difficult to force his way out, so after he came to a conclusion, he calculated in his heart to find a way out.
Daoist Skyreach couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after he stopped the battle and stopped Zhang Yan from winning. However, the battle wasn't over yet, so he also calculated in his heart, trying to find a suitable artifact to use in front of him.
But no matter how he thought about it, he found that there was nothing that could help him. Immediately, he changed his mind and refined an artifact purely for calculation, wanting to use it to help him find a way to win, but after repeated calculations, he found that he didn't seem to be able to do anything to Zhang Yan, and his heart couldn't help but sink.
According to his original plan, after this battle, he would suppress Zhang Yan here, and then try to subdue the three realms, completing what Xuan Che couldn't do before.
But he also considered the possibility of failure, so he still had a backup plan.
As the master of this place, if he wanted to, he could find a way to expel outsiders, but Zhang Yan was different. He also had the land of fortune Weili behind him, and relying purely on his own magic power and the power he summoned might not succeed, so he refined a complementary artifact.
At this moment, he waved his hand and took out the artifact, then stared down below, waiting for Zhang Yan to come out so he could expel him. As for the future, as long as this land of fortune wasn't lost, he could eventually think of another way.
Zhang Yan didn't stay in the spiral palace for long, but he already calculated the way to enter and exit this place. He used his magic power, and the surrounding barriers collapsed, revealing the original world. But at this moment, he suddenly felt a powerful force coming from everywhere, as if it wanted to push him out of this land of fortune.
