The two talismans each had their own destination. One was heading towards the Yuxiao school, while the other was flying towards the Yaoyin Peak. < w >
Luo Canghai, who was hiding at the side, became excited. The opportunity he had been waiting for was finally here. A burning light shot out from his eyes as he shouted, "Everyone, follow me!"
Before he finished speaking, he had already activated his escape light and flew close to the ground. He turned into an arc of light and rushed towards the peak of the Yaoyin Clan.
Wu Huanchen and Qi Niangzi also flew out together. However, their goal was to stop Dragon Carp, Zhang Niangzi, and Xu Niangzi from helping Zhang Yan. Hence, they were a step behind and did not overtake the main focus.
When the skinny Daoist heard the order, he did not hesitate at all. He leaped forward from the mountain ridge and flew into the sky.
The escape technique he executed was extremely brilliant. His figure swayed slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he'd already passed Luo Canghai's group of three. Although he'd started later, he'd already appeared above the clouds. Then, he leaped up and headed straight for the decree.
No matter how confident Luo Canghai was, he did not think that he could take down Zhang Yan in a short amount of time. Hence, his plan was to stall Zhang Yan while the skinny Daoist took the talisman and left.
In the demonic clouds in the sky, the disciples of the Six Great Demon Sects were no longer preparing to make a move. However, when they saw such a situation, they could not help but look over.
When Xu Niangzi saw that the person who came to take the talisman was not a disciple of the two Daoist Daoist Daoist Daoist, she raised her eyebrows in dissatisfaction. She immediately raised her hand and drew her bow. With a buzz, the bowstring vibrated and a red light shot down.
The skinny Daoist had been warned beforehand and had been on guard against the disciples of the Demon Sects. When he saw this, he snorted and curled up his body. Not only did he dodge the flying arrow, he even leaped up a bit.
Xu Niangzi was surprised and shot a few more arrows. However, the skinny Daoist still managed to dodge them easily. After a few times, he was not far from the talisman.
The skinny Daoist's cultivation was mediocre. That was why Lu Junyang had recommended him to help Luo Canghai.
At this moment, he saw that the decree was within his reach. Just as he was about to stretch out his hand, he abruptly turned his head as if he had sensed something. A streak of starlight almost brushed past his cheek as it flew past. Just a step away from taking his life. Unconsciously, he broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly curled up his body before explosively retreating a thousand feet.
He steadied himself. When he looked carefully, he saw a ray of light coming from the south, like a meteor. When it came close, the light disappeared. A woman with a temperament like an orchid in an empty valley strolled out. He couldn't help but shiver and exclaimed in a low voice, "Yuxiao school?"
Zhou Qingyun glanced over and frowned slightly. She was here to seize the decree on the surface, but she was secretly here to deal with Zhang Yan. But now that he was here, he didn't do anything. He thought to himself, "Could it be that Zhang Yan has two talismans in his hands and has no intention of snatching them?"
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. Seeing the skinny Daoist looking at her in shock and doubt, she felt annoyed. She rolled up her sleeves and raised her slender hand, pointing in that direction. The ball of sparkling Big Dipper above her flashed slightly. Seven spots of starlight floated out and arranged themselves in order. It was like a bright chain of stars flew out.
The skinny Daoist's body shuddered, fear appearing on his face as he cried out, "Divine Might Star Thunder Bead?"
At first, the starlight was still a thousand feet away, but in the blink of an eye, it was already in front of him. He gave out a weird cry and wanted to dodge using his good escape technique.
But the seven bolts of star thunder came one after another, they were extremely fast and kept exploding in the void. Even if they didn't really touch him, just being touched by the shockwave caused his escape light to waver. He spat out blood continuously and was on the verge of collapsing.
Luo Canghai circled around the Yaoyin Clan's peak and saw Zhang Yan sitting firmly on the spell altar with no intention of getting up. He was surprised when he heard movement behind him. He turned around and couldn't help but be shocked and furious, "Why is Yuxiao school interfering?"
He had thought that there would be Demon Sect disciples coming, so he kept his guard up. He didn't expect that as a Xuanmen sect, Yuxiao school would also come to snatch the talisman.
The skinny Daoist was a crucial person, it was related to whether or not he could successfully snatch the talisman. Before he succeeded, he had to protect him.
He hurriedly released a banner. After it flew out, it fluttered in the wind and protected the skinny Daoist.
Fortunately, he acted in time and rushed forward, the skinny Daoist was not killed by the thunder bead.
Luo Canghai looked at Zhou Qingyun with an unfriendly gaze. Now that Zhang Yan couldn't hide in the formation, this woman became his biggest opponent.
He instructed Wu Huanchen and Qi Niangzi to keep an eye on the peak to prevent Zhang Yan from coming out. He then rolled up a cloud of smoke and went to the sky. He stood in front of Zhou Qingyun and stared at her.
But both of them could tell that the other party was not an ordinary person. They were also worried, so none of them wanted to make the first move.
The skinny Daoist saw that no one was going to stop him and knew that his chance had come. He came out from the banner and leaped towards the talisman.
Zhang Boyan and Priest Xu saw that Luo Canghai had left and felt that their chance had come.
Zhang Boyan looked at Wu and Qi Niangzi and said softly, "Manor Master, why don't Daoist Xu and I deal with these two first?"
However, Zhang Yan waved his hand to stop him and smiled. "No need. Watch me."
He slowly stood up. As he straightened his body, a vast and mighty gale immediately spread out from the mountain peak. The leaves rustled and the rocks and sand on the mountain peak rustled as they fell.
He raised his head to the sky and let out a long roar. The astral cloud above his head trembled, and with a boom, it shot up into the sky. When it reached the top of the sky, it stopped, and then flipped and stretched again. Before long, it turned into a cloud that was thousands of feet tall. Originally, it was surrounded by five colors, but now, it was filled with purple gas. One could faintly see lightning snakes dancing within it. Lightning bolts surged, faintly emitting rumbling sounds.
This commotion was extremely like the arrival of the heavens, causing all the cultivators in the canyon to raise their heads to look over. Many of them saw that it was Zhang Yan who was executing a technique, and they couldn't help but recall the shocking hand from before, causing their faces to turn pale.
Zhou Huang had already taken the talisman and returned to the peak. He suddenly turned around and his gaze froze. He said in surprise, "Purple Cloud Heavenly Lightning?"
Luo Canghai's expression was stern. He was the disciple of Fierce so he naturally recognized this technique. Now that such a strange phenomenon appeared, this attack must have been prepared for a long time. If it fell, it would be earth-shattering and it couldn't be easily blocked.
In a second, his heart sank. No wonder Zhang Yan was sitting on the peak. It wasn't that he didn't want to fight, but he wanted to get rid of everyone.
He wasn't a member of the Xuan Gate or the Devil Sect, so he couldn't stay here for long. If he retreated now and wanted to take back the talisman, then the chances of him seizing the talisman would be slim.
Thinking of this, a ferocious expression appeared on his face. The more it was like this, the more he couldn't let Ye Xuan use this technique as he wished. He had to stop Ye Xuan while he was distracted.
He let out a wild shout and waved his sleeve, shooting out a silvery flying shuttle. It was only halfway there when he heard a dragon roar and it transformed into a mighty green dragon. Auspicious clouds curled around its feet as it soared into the sky. Its long and slender body shook off the wind and smoke as it headed straight for the summit.
The three disciples of Qincang School were surprised when they saw this scene.
Huo Xuan turned around and said to Luo Qingyu and Zhong Muqing, "Is this our Qincang School's Four Symbols Heavenly Shuttle technique?"
Although Luo Qingyu did not usually speak much, his reaction at this moment was the most intense. His eyes suddenly became sharp and he cupped his hands together and said, "Two Senior Brothers, this person must be the disciple of that villain. Since we are disciples of the Dark Azure Sect, we must kill this villain!"
Huo Xuan pressed on his shoulder and said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother, don't be impatient. With Junior Brother Zhang's remarkable Taoist techniques, he can handle this person. We just need to prevent him from escaping. You and Junior Brother Zhong go and guard the entrance of the canyon first, then we won't have to worry about him escaping."
Luo Qingyu understood and nodded. The peaks on both sides of Chengyuan Gorge were protected by the prohibition, so they didn't have to worry about him flying over. As long as the entrance of the gorge was guarded, this person would be like a turtle in a jar.
The three of them discussed for a while more, then Luo and Zhong flew down from the peak and disappeared in a moment.
Zhang Yan saw the green dragon rushing over, but he smiled slightly. A light flashed on top of his head and the Qiankun Leaf flew out. It was soft like a floating leaf and golden light shone in all directions.
This treasure had been refined by him for a long time, and it had long become one with his mind and spirit. It was unlike when he first got it, when he could not use it as he wished.
Amidst the dragon's roar, the Azure Dragon charged down with a mountain-shattering sound. A loud bang rang out. Although the Heaven and Earth Leaf was hit so hard that stars shot out in all directions and it shook endlessly, it still stood firmly in place and did not move back even a bit.
Zhang Yan's body did not move, but the sword will in his heart rose. From under the Qiankun Leaf, a cold sword ray swept out and killed in mid-air.
Luo Canghai was about to dodge, but suddenly his body froze, as if his body was being strangled by someone. His expression changed, how could he not know that the Dragon Carp was trapped in this part of the world?
He cursed in his heart. This technique was so fast that it was not a spontaneous idea. It was obvious that Zhang Yan had prepared for it.
However, the situation was critical, and he had no time to think about it. He hurriedly took out four dazzling sky shuttles to protect himself.
The four flying shuttles had just entered the sky when the figures of four divine beasts appeared. With a flash, the sword ray that was rushing at him disappeared.
At this moment, Wu Huanchen and Qi Niangzi also felt like they were trapped in a swamp. It was difficult for them to move, and they knew that they could not escape. They could only take out their protective treasures. Both of them looked at the thunder clouds circling in the void and were anxious.
Zhou Qingyun also felt like her body was tied up. She shouted softly, and a crystal jade pearl emerged from the High Cloud above her. A bright starlight shone down and protected her body. Then, she waved her hand, and when Luo Canghai was unprepared, she took the decree into her hand.
Zhang Yan did not pay attention to her, and only focused on activating his mana. After a while, the High Cloud seemed to have accumulated to its peak.
With a loud shout, he suddenly released his magic power!
In an instant, lightning flashed between heaven and earth, and there seemed to be a flash of dazzling light. Hundreds of purple thunderbolts struck down from the High Cloud, and it was as if the world was collapsing. The mountains in the gorge trembled, and the rivers surged. Those with shallow cultivation were already shocked to the point that they covered their ears and fell to the ground.
Under the bombardment of the thunderbolts, the skinny Daoist was the first to be unable to withstand it. With a cry, he was struck into ashes along with his banner.
Wu Huanchen was shocked, and he hurriedly took out the Profound Glow Lamp and released a gray fog to cover his body.
The treasure could have protected the two of them, and he only had time to care for himself in his fear. Qi Niangzi was not far from him, and she wanted to be protected, but she was a step too late. She was blocked outside, and her face showed a shocked expression.
When Wu Huanchen realized that something was wrong, he wanted to save himself, but he saw a flash of light in front of him. He endured the pain and looked, and saw that Qi Niangzi had been struck by dozens of thunderbolts. In an instant, not even her bones were left. His heart felt like it was being grabbed, and he trembled. Only then did the sound of thunder enter his ears.
