(PS: Happy New Year, everyone!)
The current situation caused Yan Zhaoge to recall back in the Eight Extremities World that year when his sect had tried to force the Sacred Sun Clan's Huang Guanglie out of secluded cultivation prematurely.
In order to ensure that Huang Guanglie would be able to achieve great success and sweep through all eight levels of cultivation after emerging from seclusion, the Sacred Sun Clan had indeed suffered quite a bit of losses, tolerating quite a bit.
Sadly, while Huang Guanglie had successfully emerged from seclusion, his strength having improved a step further, he had still ended up badly injured at the foot of Broad Creed Mountain in the Eight Extremities World.
Currently, Huang Guanglie and the Sacred Sun Clan had long since become history.
However, the past seemed to be repeating itself, just that this time, it was Broad Creed Mountain who stood guard over the barrier.
The human face in the sky looked at the Broad Creed Mountain and Yan Zhaoge's North Ocean Clone indifferently, "Yan Zhaoge, if you are really the descendant of the Exalted Solar Luminary, only this bigwig can save you."
"If you were not, your Broad Creed Mountain would have become the sect with the shortest history in the Royal Reed Sea today."
At this moment, the Northern Ocean Clone did not carry the avatar of the Kunpeng or the qi of a true dragon in the slightest.
His entire person was enveloped by the Taotie's light shadow, as if he had transformed into a living Taotie.
Although he was unable to unleash the full power of the high-grade Sacred Artifact, the Evil Sword Taotie, because his cultivation was not high enough, it was still extremely ferocious.
Although they were both high-grade sacred weapons, the Evil Sword Taotie was an existence above the Xuan King Spear.
However, the opponent in front of him was even more terrifying.
While he was only a mid Immortal Bridge Martial Saint, Yan Zhaoge felt that he would even be able to battle peak experts of the ninth level of the Martial Saint realm.
Possessing outstanding talent and cultivating a peerless martial art like the Aeon Light Heavenly Scripture, Shen Lingzi's strength was definitely extraordinary.
The higher one's cultivation level was, the fewer experts of the same level would be, and the smaller the gap between them.
Experts who could reach this level were all Heavenly Talents who were invincible among their peers when they were young and in the environment they grew up in. They were able to defeat most opponents who were several levels higher than them.
Having reached the Immortal Bridge Martial Saint realm, especially the eighth and ninth levels of the Martial Saint realm, it was already very rare for one to surpass levels in battle as the possibility of such a thing was practically negligible.
The difference of a single realm would result in a huge gap in average strength.
Experts of this level were all top-notch existences in terms of talent, fortuitous encounters, and martial arts.
But Shen Lingzi, at this level, was still a well-known figure.
Just like Lin Hanhua and Kang Ping.
Yan Zhaoge believed that if Lin Hanhua did not use his full strength in order to conceal the secret of his origins, he might not even be able to defeat this Shen Lingzi.
What Yan Zhaoge was more concerned about was that the other party might still have other hidden methods.
Otherwise, Gu Hong would not have been captured alive.
This old man was now displaying the Flowing Time Sword technique that Kang Ping and the others had yet to comprehend.
With a single sword strike, time and space became chaotic, splitting into countless voids with different speeds of time, tearing and twisting each other.
Not to mention opponents below the Immortal Bridge stage.
Even most experts of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm, the early Immortal Bridge stage, would only be defeated and perish before this sword!
The Northern Ocean Clone wielded the Evil Sword Taotie while Yuan Zhengfeng presided over the Clear Qi Grand Formation. Even as they joined hands, facing this supreme blow, they still felt strained.
It was no wonder that they had been able to breach Copper Men Island which was equivalent to three experts of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm.
It was no wonder that it could break through the sword domain of the Grinding Hut Region that the North Sea Sword Pavilion had accumulated for thousands of years.
The Northern Ocean Clone inhaled deeply, "Grand Master, pass the control over the grand formation to me."
With his main body in death seclusion, Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone's thoughts were not sharp enough. It would be best if he could avoid something as intricate as the control of the grand formation.
Still, he had to make a move now.
Yuan Zhengfeng did not waste time on words as runes flickered within his pupils, radiance dissipating.
Light flickered within the pupils of the Northern Ocean Clone.
The two spirit patterns circulated simultaneously, streams of clear qi from the Clear Qi Grand Formation bolstering the Northern Ocean Clone's body.
Wielded by the Northern Ocean Clone, the entire grand formation instantly shook mightily.
The sky formed of clear qi up above began descending at an accelerated rate while the great earth condensed of countless specks of yellow and black light rose at an accelerated rate down below.
Within the grand formation, a few spirit patterns began collapsing. Radiance shattered on the peaks of Broad Creed Mountain's eight mountain peaks.
Beneath Yan Zhaoge's violent control, the treasures that had established the formation shockingly began to collapse.
However, the grand formation circulated even more ferociously as it revealed a violent momentum.
The heavens and the earth seemed about to heal. Pressured by this force, the chaotic space between the heavens and the earth vaguely showed signs of being stabilised once more.
Bolstered by the power of the Clear Qi Grand Formation, the Northern Ocean Clone wielded the Evil Sword Taotie with greater might.
The black hole reappeared, devouring the sword-light of Shen Lingzi's Time Flowing Sword in great amounts.
The human face within the sky vanished, the sword-light that resembled water regaining its former calm.
Now, the light of water parted to the sides.
A figure walked out from within, his features exactly the same as the human face within the sky just now.
A young face, an old demeanor.
It was none other than Shen Lingzi who had dominated the Royal Reed Sea in the past and was even more powerful now.
"You have some skills. What a sword." He lowered his head to look at Broad Creed Mountain and the Northern Ocean Clone, saying slowly, "Sadly, you don't even have a single Immortal Bridge Martial Saint. What is the use of having a divine artifact? You are just throwing pearls before swine, wasting God's gifts. "
Shen Lingzi slowly raised his hand, "This power is what a high-grade Sacred Artifact should possess."
Accompanied by his raising his hand, a strange ancient seal appeared.
That seal was long in shape, resembling a short sword, just that it had no tip or edge.
An ancient, desolate aura emanated from the ancient seal in the form of a sword which seemed to have traversed countless ages, extending into the present.
Grasping this sword seal, Shen Lingzi casually brandished it, the sword-light that resembled water instantly enveloping the Spirit Inheritance Region.
All of Broad Creed Mountain resembled bugs that had been frozen in amber, unable to move.
Beneath the circulation of the Clear Qi Grand Formation, the heavens and earth that seemed about to close up immediately stilled.
The black hole formed of the sword-light of the Evil Sword Taotie began to suffuse and dissipate as well.
Yan Zhaoge's gaze flickered, "He indeed has a accompanying high-grade Sacred Artifact!"
The Northern Ocean Clone suddenly roared towards the heavens, streams of radiance appearing above his head which shot into the horizon, manifesting as numerous runes which came together to form a massive spirit formation.
On Heaven Rising Peak, Yuan Zhengfeng had already emerged from the great hall, spiritual light also shooting into the heavens above his head which manifested as runes.
A spirit formation was formed in the air above Yuan Zhengfeng's head as well. While it was different from the one above Yan Zhaoge's Northern Ocean Clone's head, they were closely connected.
The Northern Ocean Clone actually abandoned the Evil Sword Taotie in his hand now, throwing this powerful high-grade Sacred Artifact towards Broad Creed Mountain down below.
At the same time, a spear appeared in his hands. It was another high-grade Sacred Artifact, precisely the King Xuan Spear.
Blazing fire surged, surrounding the Northern Ocean Clone.
The silhouette of the Taotie dissipated, the influence of the Kunpeng appearing, the momentum of overturning seas and shooting into the heavens surging.
The Evil Sword Taotie landed on Fire Leaving Peak of Broad Creed Mountain's eight peaks. There, radiance condensed into runes as well, establishing a spirit formation.
On the Thunder Shocking Peak, a fourth spirit formation was established.
As the Northern Ocean Clone raised a hand, numerous weapons that flickered with spiritual light and emanated unusual auras flew out.
These weapons hovered within the air, forming a formation.
Formation artifacts forged of Grand Spirit Stone Essence!
The four great spirit formations in the air above Broad Creed Mountain rose in unison, expanding and combining as they transformed into an even more massive spirit formation!
Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation! (To be continued.)
