While Shen Lingzi and Kang Ping had left at the same time, those of the Grand Xuan Dynasty had no objections.
Because King Xuancheng was still here.
While he was inferior to Shen Lingzi, King Xuancheng was still an expert of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm, the mid Immortal Bridge stage.
Broad Creed Mountain had previously used the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation to block Shen Lingzi, but it might not be so convenient this time.
"Daoist Shi" was the answer.
While he was only an early Immortal Bridge Martial Saint, let alone the Royal Reed Sea, let alone the southeastern Yang Heaven Territory.
Even amongst the Immortal Bridge Martial Practitioners of the entire World beyond Worlds, Daoist Shi was one of the top existences in terms of attainments in formations.
Without the Taiyi Imperial Breaking Formation, how would Broad Creed Mountain block King Xuancheng and the other experts of the Grand Xuan Dynasty with?
Martial practitioners who were able to walk to the Immortal Bridge stage were all supreme geniuses who could fight one against many when they were at a lower cultivation level. All of them cultivated in supreme martial arts that were hard to come by.
The higher the level, the smaller the gap between martial artists of the same realm, and the greater the gap between martial artists of different realms.
It had become extremely difficult to fight someone of a higher cultivation level.
Of course, there were no absolutes in this world. There were always a few people who could create miracles.
Shen Lingzi would be able to surpass the gap between the Immortal Bridge and Seeing Divinity, resisting experts of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm as a sixth level Martial Saint.
Still, against an opponent of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm, even with the protection of a high-grade Sacred Artifact, he would only be able to escape unscathed. If he did not have a Sacred Artifact, he would definitely be defeated, his life in danger.
This was already a miracle that countless people could only dream of.
Miracles were miracles because they were rare.
Daoist Shi waved his hands casually. Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng first bowed in greeting before descending towards Broad Creed Mountain.
Two sword-lights that resembled long rivers of time descended, instantly transforming into a barrier of sword-light that enveloped Broad Creed Mountain.
Where the radiance passed, the flow of time in the heavens and earth surrounding Broad Creed Mountain instantly slowed.
At this moment, it was as if time had been frozen.
While they were not as powerful as Shen Lingzi, the combined attacks of two Immortal Bridge Martial Saints still resembled the pressure of Mount Tai.
But at this moment, the entire world shook.
A bright sabre-light shot into the skies from Broad Creed Mountain's Heaven Rising Peak with the momentum of breaking through the sky.
Wherever the saber light passed, Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng's Time Flowing Sword's Long River of Sword Light was forcibly split apart!
The saber light was like the momentum of the world, the tide of the era advancing. It was unstoppable and unrivaled. Even the flow of time seemed to be subdued before this vast will.
A figure rose from the Heaven Rising Peak. He looked to be in his thirties or forties. He had a handsome face with greying sideburns.
On the purple saber in his hand, the silhouettes of True Dragons coiled and let out deafening roars.
It was precisely Broad Creed Mountain's current Chief, Yan Di!
At this moment, Yan Di's entire body flickered with light, his saber qi piercingly cold.
Daoist Shi frowned, "The sixth level of the Martial Saint realm, late Seeing Divinity stage? According to the words of the younger generation, this person should have ascended to the World beyond Worlds less than five years ago … "
Before he could finish his thoughts, he saw a shocking scene.
After cleaving apart the long river of sword-light from the Time Flowing Sword, that terrifying sabre-light of Yan Di's did not cease in its momentum as it hacked straight towards Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng!
Two experts of the seventh level of the Martial Saint realm who had already ascended the Immortal Bridge had actually been unable to stand against an opponent who was still a Seeing Divinity Martial Saint!
The young opponent in front of them not only had an unimaginably fast cultivation speed, his strength was also extremely tyrannical!
Beside Daoist Shi, King Xuancheng did not speak as he gazed coldly at Yan Di.
Ever since Yan Di had ascended to the World beyond Worlds, there had actually only been one battle in which he had truly clashed with someone.
It was also that battle that had caused Yan Di's name to spread throughout the four seas when he had just arrived in the Higher Worlds, truly making a name for himself with a single battle.
In that battle, Yan Di had domineeringly slain the third Monarch of the Grand Xuan Dynasty, King Xuanmu.
In other words, King Xuancheng's son of the first wife!
The reason why Shen Lingzi had left so readily and gone to investigate the situation in the South Sea was because he knew that there was someone here who wanted to take down Broad Creed Mountain even more than he did, wanting to slaughter Broad Creed Mountain completely.
Raging flames surged soundlessly, instantly covering the skies of the Virtuous Spirit Region.
In the sea below, the seawater evaporated rapidly and the sea level plummeted.
Because of the change in climate, the surrounding sea also stirred up storms, tsunamis, and the sky collapsed.
King Xuancheng strode forward, shocking the heavens with a momentum that was even more terrifying than the combined forces of Gu Zhang and He Dongcheng.
Fire in the air, fire in stone, fire in wood, Samadhi fire, fire of the human realm, the Five Fires Incinerating Heavens.
Phoenix, Blue Luan, Great Roc, Peacock, White Crane, Swan, Owl, Seven Fowl filled the sky.
A storm of flames that incinerated the heavens and extinguished the earth converged at a single point, the tip of the storm transforming into a violent spear that stabbed towards Yan Di!
As a mid Immortal Bridge Martial Saint executed the Five Fire True Art and the Seven Fowl Treasured Spear, the momentum far surpassed that of King Xuanmu, Yao Hai and Yang Zhaozhen.
Having personally slain King Xuanmu, Yan Di could feel this extremely clearly.
Faced with the storm of flames before him, the Flame Devil World of the past was like an insignificant, insignificant ember.
Beneath King Xuancheng's spear, the roiling waves of heat caused everyone else on Broad Creed Mountain to feel suffocated despite being protected by the Clear Qi Grand Formation.
While it was not as miraculous and unfathomable as Shen Lingzi's attacks, this spear of King Xuancheng's was even more direct and ferocious.
Even the spectators were like this, let alone Yan Di who was facing it head-on.
However, faced with such a ferocious attack, Yan Di's expression did not change as his response was the same as usual.
Who cares how miraculous you are, how ferocious you are, I will strike down with a sabre!
The majestic sabre-light shot into the skies, mightily colliding with the spear formed of the storm of flames up above!
"Huh?!" The expressions of Daoist Shi and the other Grand Xuan Dynasty martial practitioners changed drastically.
Before their eyes, it was actually Yan Di's sabre-light that was gradually breaking through King Xuancheng's spear at a speed that could be clearly seen with the naked eye!
This sabre opened the heavens and split the earth apart, also destroying the heavens and extinguishing the earth!
It was as though the process of creation of the heavens and earth was being played out, unstoppable and undefiable.
This concept had been integrated into every single one of Yan Di's moves ever since he had attained major accomplishment in his martial true intent.
Looking coldly at this scene, King Xuancheng said in an indifferent tone, "This King does not believe that you can keep on attacking like this."
His hands did not cease as he substituted spears with fists, resembling a tempestuous storm as thousands of spears instantly descended!
Violent flames rampaged throughout the entire sky, sweeping through space.
Raising his head to look at King Xuancheng up above, Yan Di's gaze seemed like he was looking down on him.
The next moment, sabre-light similarly erupted consecutively, not giving way in the slightest as it broke through all of King Xuancheng's spear moves without any hesitation, even unceasingly counterattacking!
King Xuancheng's gaze turned cold, "How is this possible?"
Even if Yan Di possessed supreme techniques that far surpassed martial practitioners of the same cultivation level and strength, such attacks should have been extremely taxing on him as he should not be able to withstand a protracted battle.
How could such attacks that surpassed the limits of a Seeing Divinity Martial Saint be able to be so unceasing and endless?
Yet, reality was just this cruel, cruel to the point that King Xuancheng of the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm found it hard to believe!
Yan Di's gaze was clear as he inhaled and exhaled through his nose. Two streams of qi, one white and one black, surrounded his entire body, circulating unceasingly.
Such powerful attacks that surpassed one's limits were indeed unable to be sustained for long.
However, Yan Di was currently cultivating in the Yin Yang Heavenly Scripture that Yan Zhaoge had provided. Possessing the laws of the heavens and the earth as yin and yang circulated, the rate of his true essence recovery similarly far surpassed that of ordinary people.
The sabre-light hacked through the all-encompassing flames with the momentum of splitting the heavens!
Yan Di strode atop space, rising all the way as he directly arrived before King Xuancheng, chopping out with a sabre!
Amidst the disbelieving gazes of those of the Grand Xuan Dynasty, it was shockingly King Xuancheng who stumbled backwards! (To be continued.)
