(PS: Many thanks to the old Alliance Chief 'Passing Libra' for the second chapter.)
At this moment, Fu Ting was no longer merely probing and sparring as she had with Yan Zhaoge earlier. Instead, she unleashed all of her abilities, seeking only to swiftly vanquish her opponent and secure victory.
Yan Zhaoge also personally witnessed the Red Lotus Tribulation that he had long heard of.
A bag hung by Fu Ting's waist. She reached for it before waving her hand again, a streak of crimson fire flying out.
In the outside world, the crimson light transformed into a red lotus that was bright and alluring.
The next moment, however, the red lotus directly exploded, a hole being torn open amidst space.
That ferocious destructive power virtually almost caught up to a sabre strike of Yan Di's without the assistance of a Sacred Artifact.
Fortunately, this Red Lotus Tribulation required time to be born. If it was expended greatly within a short period of time, its regeneration speed would not be able to keep up.
At the same time, Yan Zhaoge could also confirm that Fu Ting possessed outstanding strength as she was not someone who relied purely on treasures.
At the same cultivation level, Lin Hanhua, Zhuang Chaohui and Kang Ping were all inferior to her.
Speaking of which, while Yue Baoqi of the North Sea Sword Pavilion was very talented, the martial arts of the North Sea Sword Pavilion could not compare to the personal disciples of Fu Ting's Ingenious Flying Peak, the Brocade Emperor.
The top-notch absolute art, in addition to Fu Ting's outstanding talent, together created a monster who could crush her peers. Her talent was astonishing.
On this basis, her entire body was filled with treasures as the Red Lotus Tribulation and Phoenix Weave Feathers complemented each other perfectly.
While she was only a late Merging Avatar Martial Saint now, she could cause many Seeing Divinity Martial Saints to suffer defeat in actual combat.
On the other hand, Gao Qing was similarly eye-catching.
She was slightly younger than Fu Ting as she was currently a mid Merging Avatar Martial Saint.
Martial practitioners of this cultivation level would virtually be unable to retaliate against Fu Ting as most might even be instakilled in a single blow.
Yet, while Gao Qing was at a disadvantage, Fu Ting was actually unable to obtain victory within a short period of time as well.
In just a few short exchanges, Gao Qing simultaneously executed the Immortal Trapping Sword and the Immortal Ending Sword.
There was no delay in switching between the two sword arts at all as they were naturally executed with ease.
Seeing this, Yan Zhaoge nodded to himself, "It is indeed the Immortal Trapping Sword. No wonder she was able to find this foreign dimension from extradimensional space so quickly."
"The Roving Jade Heavens are indeed worthy of being groomed by the direct lineage of the Prime Clear lineage. They are not inferior to Fu Ting of the World beyond Worlds in the slightest."
If the two of them were to fight at the same cultivation level, they would truly be evenly matched, and it would be difficult to determine the victor.
Right now, Gao Qing and the others were at a disadvantage, but they were extremely resilient.
Against Fu Ting, who was stronger than her, Gao Qing mainly used the Immortal Trapping Sword.
The Immortal Trapping Sword could not only sever space-time, but it could also shift space-time to a certain extent.
Making use of this convenience, Gao Qing began to tangle with Fu Ting. When she really couldn't dodge, she would use the Celestial End Sword to counterattack and defend, making it hard for Fu Ting to take her down within a short period of time.
The two sides were locked in battle, and as time passed, the elders of both sides were also fighting, breaking through the sea of violet clouds and nearing the Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace.
At this moment, the huge pill furnace was still quietly standing in the void, as if it was completely unaffected by the fierce battle outside.
Yan Zhaoge brought Feng Yunsheng and the others along as they hid within the purple qi, keeping their breaths as they calmed their hearts and focused on the situation before them.
"Young Master, is there really something wrong with that furnace?" Ah Hu was no longer smiling cheekily as his expression was solemn, "Many Immortal Bridge Martial Saints have arrived. It will be very difficult for us to reap the benefits of their battle."
Yan Zhaoge stared fixedly at the Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace, "My intuition tells me that there is something wrong with that furnace."
Actually, it was still not too late to make a move now.
The experts of Ingenious Flying Peak and the Roving Jade Heavens would still need some time before they could completely charge in.
Meanwhile, Fu Ting, Gao Qing and the others were currently locked in a fierce battle. If Yan Zhaoge made a move now, there would still be a great chance of success.
To make a move or not to make a move?
Should he believe his earlier intuition?
Yan Zhaoge was currently unceasingly asking himself this question.
If his earlier guess was wrong, it would be equivalent to him handing over a precious treasure like the Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace for nothing.
This was not as simple as a few pills or a Sacred Artifact.
While it could not be immediately converted into combat power, the value of this treasure was even higher than that of a high grade Sacred Artifact or even an Immortal Artifact!
The crux of Yan Zhaoge's judgement was actually that he himself had no actual evidence to support his guess.
Everything was completely based on his intuition.
Based on the memories deep within his heart that originated from the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace of pre-Great Calamity times.
At Yan Zhaoge's level, it was not an exaggeration to say that Sudden Inspiration and his intuition were extremely acute. Instead, they were something that truly existed.
Still, things that were too profound would often obstruct and obscure the senses of martial practitioners.
The Immortal Bridge Martial Saints outside similarly possessed acute Sudden Inspiration senses. Still, they did not discover anything unusual at all at this moment.
Yan Zhaoge asked himself if his intuition might have been a misconception.
He closed his eyes lightly, no longer gazing at that furnace that caused one's heart to waver.
After a long time, Yan Zhaoge reopened his eyes, saying in a heavy tone, "When the waters run dry, sit and watch the clouds rise."
"We, wait."
"If my intuition is wrong, there is nothing we can do about it. Having made a decision, we have to bear the consequences."
Since he had said to wait, Feng Yunsheng, Ah Hu, Xiao Ai and the others spoke no further. All of them inhaled deeply, calming their hearts as they stared at the Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace along with Yan Zhaoge, waiting patiently.
After who knew how long, the purple sea of clouds rippled more and more intensely.
Just as Gao Qing and the others were falling further and further into a disadvantageous position, gradually finding it hard to hold on, the dense purple qi mightily broke apart, a few figures shooting within.
The six of them were split into three pairs, still locked in combat. Seeing the Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace now, their eyes all lit up.
With their arrival, the battle between Fu Ting and Gao Qing's group became meaningless as they all retreated to the side.
The two ninth level Martial Saints with the highest cultivation bases on both sides simultaneously reached out and grabbed towards the Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace.
That expert of the Roving Jade Heavens who cultivated in the Immortal Trapping Sword seemed to regard space as nothing as he grabbed the side of the furnace first.
The pill furnace shook intensely, nearly jolting him out of his grasp.
He exerted force, yet was unable to move the pill furnace.
Having been tormented and delayed for a moment, his opponent was not slow as well as he rushed forward, avoiding his sword and moving to the other side, also reaching out to grab the pill furnace.
The two sides clashed in mid-air, both of them being locked in a stalemate for a time.
The other four Immortal Bridge Martial Saints entangled with each other, simultaneously moving forward and grabbing the pill furnace one after the other, also launching attacks towards their opponents.
The Profound Sky Purple Gold Furnace shook intensely, its lid opening as streams of dense mist surged unceasingly from it with a surging qi.
The next moment, the mist which had originally surrounded the pill furnace and formed a purple sea of clouds around it surged into the sky at this moment before being absorbed within the pill furnace.
Bright golden light was emitted from within the pill furnace, illuminating the surrounding area.
Fu Ting, Gao Qing and the others grit their teeth, preparing to step forward and assist as well.
Now that the purple qi had dissipated completely, Yan Zhaoge and the others appeared within their field of vision!
Both sides were startled.
At the same time, a black ring of light suddenly appeared above the pill furnace before expanding into the surroundings.
Where the black light passed, numerous illusory shadows were formed which formed a massive, illusory palace! (To be continued.)
