Yan Changsheng's sword came. Even though the two of them were a hundred miles apart, Zhang Yan felt a slight pain between his eyebrows, as if he was being pricked by a needle. He suddenly realized that this slash of his opponent's wasn't for any other reason, and it was definitely coming straight for his soul!
Even though the dharma was formed by essence, it still needed the soul to control it. If it was destroyed by an external force, it would be the same as losing its head. Even if it didn't die from the injury, it would be hard for it to fight against the enemy.
When people in the Grotto-heaven fought, there were many ways to attack the soul. In the Demon Doctrine, there were many people who were good at this.
But usually, the soul was protected by layers of dharma essence, like a human body. It was considered the most tightly guarded place. It was extremely difficult to break through from the front.
But at this moment, Yan Changsheng used the help of the treasure to stabilize the spiritual opportunity. If he used some powerful techniques, he might be able to do it.
In the blink of an eye, he was already within ten miles. To the cultivators in the Grotto-heaven, this distance was just inches away.
There was a loud shout and a strong sword light flashed. Like a bolt of lightning, it tore apart the Xuan Qi clouds and attacked from afar.
Zhang Yan raised his head and looked at the sky. He didn't panic at all. The Xuan Qi behind him shook and a divine light flashed. It looked like it was displaying five colors.
One of the water-colored lights was like a dragon that raised its head and swept across the sky. Before the beast-footed lantern could react, it fell into the lantern's body involuntarily. For a moment, it became muddle-headed. It was like its consciousness had returned to the time when it was about to be opened.
But it was, after all, a true weapon. It immediately came back to its senses and wanted to fly away. But no matter how hard it tried, it was suppressed by a strong force and couldn't escape.
At this moment, the situation on the battlefield had been turned around.
The five-colored rainbow behind Zhang Yan flashed again. Another golden light shot out. It was like a thin thread and was extremely fast. It instantly collided with the sword light!
It was like two long swords clashing in the air. There was the sound of metal clashing and sparks were created.
With this touch. Not only did the flying golden light force the sword light back, but it also pushed forward. He charged all the way to Yan Changsheng.
He didn't dodge or evade. He raised the sword in his hand and blocked, but he heard a soft sound. When he looked again, the sword had already been broken. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Good move!"
Looking up, he saw that the boundless Xuan Qi in the sky was evolving into the Connate form. For a moment, it filled the sky and earth, rolling over as if it wanted to devour him in one go. With a loud laugh, he casually tossed the broken sword aside and shook the magic pagoda behind him, releasing countless thunder and fire astral winds. Unexpectedly, he didn't try to retreat, but instead took the initiative to face the attack head-on!
Zhang Yan nodded inwardly and praised. His opponent's attack had failed. He was already deep in the formation. If he retreated hastily, it would only give him a chance to chase after him. He might as well throw away all his worries and fight with his life on the line!
Without any hesitation, he gathered his magical power and brought his hand down. The Xuan Qi behind him came crashing down. As long as he could trap the Dharma Form, no matter how it changed, as long as the soul within it did not escape, he would have a chance of winning!
But Just Now, he was pressing forward. However, he realized that the opponent's defense was unexpectedly weak, like a hot knife through butter. In just a few breaths, he broke through the layers of wind, thunder, fire, and lightning. Encircling it tightly in their arms.
He frowned slightly and felt that something was wrong. The opponent was so weak, it didn't seem like the Dharma Form was there, but more like an Essence Qi clone.
Right at this moment, he suddenly sensed something. It was a warning sign from the location of the Vital Qi doppelganger. His ears also heard the sound of thunder and lightning a thousand miles away. It seemed that the aura of Yan Changsheng's Vital Qi doppelganger had increased, and it was several times stronger than before.
He couldn't help but think, "Could it be that the main target is there?"
His eyes narrowed. Judging from the situation in front of him, it was highly likely that Yan Changsheng had used a technique to change between real and fake, creating the illusion that his real body was here. In reality, he had only left behind a doppelganger formed from a small amount of Essence Qi to distract him. His true target was the Essence Qi doppelganger on the other side.
He knew that the clone had less than thirty percent of the Essence Qi. If it really encountered Yan Changsheng's Dharma Form, it would not be a match.
Should he save or not?
He thought for a moment. Yan Changsheng's Essence Qi clone was also in his hands. It was like prey in a net. Right now, he only needed to put in a bit more effort to destroy it. If he was fast enough and rushed over in time, he would be able to attack the opponent from both sides. His chances of winning would be much higher.
By the same logic, if Yan Changsheng took care of his clone first and rushed over, then he would be in a disadvantageous situation.
At this moment, his gaze became a little deeper. Let's see who is faster.
With that thought in mind, he ignored the chaos a thousand miles away and acted as if he didn't hear it. Instead, he increased the intensity of his attacks.
The Heavenly Thunder of Heavy Water came crashing down with the momentum of the sky.
Under the attack, the ninety-nine floors of the pagoda continued to explode. Although it returned to its original state in the blink of an eye and looked unharmed, the Essence Qi that was worn out could not be replenished.
After ten breaths, a Jade Snow Pill suddenly appeared on the top of the pagoda. It was faintly discernible, like an illusion. Within it, there was a streak of red blood. It looked bright and eye-catching.
Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Three-treasure Phase Bead?"
Before he came out, he knew that there would be a battle. Therefore, he specially asked around about the real treasures that Yan Changsheng had taken away from the sect. This Three-treasure Phase Bead was one of them.
This treasure was not a weapon for killing, and it had no defensive ability. However, if a person from the Heavenly Abode used his Essence Qi to inject it, he could transform it into its original form for a short period of time. When he fought, it could be used to confuse the enemy and also as a surprise weapon.
If he was really dealing with a pearl from the start, it meant that Yan Changsheng's Essence Qi clone was not here. Yan Changsheng was personally dealing with his clone.
As if responding to his thoughts, at the same time, he also sensed that his avatar was in imminent danger. If he didn't go to save it, he feared that he wouldn't be able to gain the slightest advantage and would lose thirty percent of his Essence Qi for nothing.
To completely destroy this pagoda, he would need at least an hour. Should he let it go and save it, or should he not change his original intention and fight to the end?
In an instant, he made a decision. He sneered and continued to ignore the changes happening outside his body. He only used his mana layer by layer.
After another two hours, there was a rumble. It was as if the sky was splitting and the earth was collapsing. The pagoda completely collapsed.
Zhang Yan waved his hand and split the Stellar Energy Flow Xuan Mist. He looked at a tall figure and smiled. "Zhenren Yan, as expected, you are here."
Yan Changsheng looked over. He scoffed and said, "If you are shaken Just Now, then you will definitely lose this battle. If your mind is unsteady, then you will definitely lose this battle. However, your mind is as firm as a mountain, difficult to shake. I have lost this battle. "
Zhang Yan cupped his hands and said, "I know that Zhenren hasn't used up all his tricks. You can hide in the Heavenly Abode, but I can't find you. "
When a person from the Heavenly Abode was in danger, he could hide in his own Heavenly Abode at all costs. Once he did that, even if you knew where he was, you wouldn't be able to do anything.
Yan Changsheng's brow rose up and he shook his sleeves. "A loss is a loss. Hiding in the Heavenly Abode is just a struggle at death's door. I don't want to do that. "
Zhang Yan sighed and felt slightly regretful. The other wasn't hiding it at all. He could sense that the other's essence energy was exhausted and he was like a lamp on the verge of death. It was obvious that the battle Just Now was to squeeze out the last bit of energy. If he was at his peak, who knew what it would be like. Unfortunately, he wouldn't have the chance to experience it.
Yan Changsheng raised his head and said with a burning gaze, "However, I have to ask. How did you see the flaw Just Now? "
Zhang Yan smiled. "Zhenren's transformation has reached a wondrous level. I can't see through it, but I don't believe that someone can tangle with me for a long time. It's just one pill. "
At this point, his tone was filled with unparalleled confidence.
Yan Changsheng was startled for a moment before bursting into laughter. After a long while, he finally stopped and nodded his head, his eyes filled with praise. Then, he changed the topic and asked, "If your judgment was wrong, what would happen?"
Zhang Yan replied honestly, "If that's the case, Zhenren shouldn't blame me for only using the sword to fight. Even if I can't win, I won't lose."
Normal treasures were useless against people from the Heavenly Abode, but the sword pill was different. Essence energy could be stored in it, and it could fly around and attack from the side.
If Zhang Yan had used the guerilla fighting method right from the start, Yan Changsheng would indeed only be able to respond passively. However, in the end, he would only be forcing his opponent to focus on defense. Who knew how long it would take to resolve this matter, so he did not use it.
Yan Changsheng thought for a moment and sighed. "This is the truth."
He waved his hand and four Daoist apparitions appeared in mid-air. There were men and women, old and young.
He looked around and said, "That day, I forced all of you to follow me. Now that Hall Master Du Zhen is here, follow him back to the mountain gate."
The five of them bowed to him and bowed to Zhang Yan before turning into divine light and entering his sleeve.
With a wave of his hand, Yan Changsheng tossed a jade talisman over and said, "With this, you can enter the cave I created. There are quite a few pill jades inside, and they were given to me by Junior Sister Qin years ago. I originally wanted to leave them for my disciple to comprehend, but now it looks like there's no need for them, so Hall Master Du Zhen can take them back."
Zhang Yan was surprised, but after thinking about it, he understood.
The previous Hall Master of Du Zhen Hall, Zhuo Yuming, gave Qin Yu quite a lot of elixir jade. Normally, even if she didn't use it, her disciples could enjoy it. However, the strange thing was that there were not many talented disciples. He thought it was strange and suspected that she didn't have the ability to teach disciples. Now, it seemed like the elixir jade was sent here.
He took the Jade Talisman and put it in his sleeve. He bowed and said, "Then I will keep it first. Tomorrow, when Zhenren's successor has the ability to protect himself, I will return it."
Yan Changsheng took a deep look and said, "There is a technique stored in my grotto-heaven. I secretly figured it out after I broke out of the door. Even if the cultivators in the sect don't cultivate the nerve of sensing, after understanding it, they will be able to sense Qi movement during fights. I will leave it to Hall Master Du Zhen to bring back to the mountain gate."
When Zhang Yan heard this, his expression turned serious and he said, "I will bring it back to the mountain gate. I will not let down Zhenren Yan's efforts."
Yan Changsheng turned around and looked at the boundless mountains and rivers under his feet. He laughed and sang, "A young man with a sword on his back, Xuan Ya's Immortal Seeking Tower, once he heard the Dao, he roamed freely between heaven and earth. Life is comfortable and happy, I write wildly about spring and autumn. Longevity is not my wish, I only want to relieve the worries in my heart!
When he finished singing, his breath disappeared. His voice echoed in the mountains for a long time. In the distant sky, only a row of startled geese flew past.
