In the image, Yin Tianxia's opponents were two people.
One was radiant like the sun in the sky. In the martial arts conception, it contained the power of the Solar Star and the power of the aurora.
One was like the descent of an eternal night, darkness covering the sky and covering the sun. The martial art conception was complete darkness and tranquility.
These two people were not from the same sect. Instead, they came from two different heritages.
Yan Zhaoge was able to recognise that the former was the legacy of a major power of pre-Great Calamity times, Vast Yang Palace.
In the world of Daoism of the Three Clear lineage in the World beyond Worlds, the legacies of this power were nowhere to be found. It was unknown if they existed in any of the lower worlds.
It was worth mentioning that as far as Yan Zhaoge knew, the bigwig expert who had created the Extreme Yang Scripture in pre-Great Calamity times hailed from Vast Yang Palace.
On the basis of the Vast Yang Sutra of the Vast Yang Palace, he combined what he had learned to explore the method of the Extreme Yang Divine Canon.
In the collection of the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace's library, compared to the incomplete Extreme Yang Scripture, the Vast Yang Sutra was perfectly preserved.
Meanwhile, the supreme sword art executed by the other person contained darkness and concealment which Yan Zhaoge found rather unfamiliar.
"It looks like the Heavenless Dark Sword," Yan Zhaoge thought.
The Heavenless Dark Sword was also a supreme martial art of pre-Great Calamity times, originating from a major power known as the Dark Heaven Sword Sect.
However, the Heavenly Court's Divine Palace Library did not have a collection of the Heavenless Dark Sword. There were only some simple descriptions in some ancient texts.
Instead, Yan Zhaoge was extremely familiar with the other force contained within this person's sword arts.
One of the Nine Heavenly Immortal Thunders, the Thunder of Eternal Night.
Wherever the thunder went, the world would never see the light.
Then, with a clap of thunder, the world turned white and the void shattered.
Of course, regardless of whether they cultivated the Vast Yang Scripture or the Skyless Dark Sword, the foundation of these two Almighty powerhouses was the treasured light imbued with faith power.
What Yan Zhaoge was concerned about was that whether it was Vast Yang Palace or the legacies that cultivated in the Heavenless Dark Sword, they had never produced an expert who could claim the title of Emperor.
These two people before him, however, were not like the Dim Radiant Emperor who had surpassed his predecessors.
Although the concepts of the Vast Yang Sutra and the Heavenless Dark Sword that they displayed had some changes, they had weeded through the old to bring forth the new, eliminating the impurities and retaining the essence.
However, in essence, it did not surpass the legacies of pre-Great Calamity times.
Yan Zhaoge still didn't dare to be certain about the Heavenless Dark Sword.
Yan Zhaoge could confirm that the Vast Yang Scripture was not as profound as the legacies of Vast Yang Palace of pre-Great Calamity times.
But the two people in front of him were truly powerful beings who had already pushed open the Immortal Gate and crossed the barrier between Mortal and Immortal!
An expert who could be called an Emperor!
Even if they were the experts of the Immortal Court, a Great Emperor was still a Great Emperor. With a wave of his hand, he could destroy the world.
The two of them besieged Yin Tianxia and attacked at the same time. Light and darkness intertwined and the heaven and earth were completely distorted.
Looking at the scene of light, Yan Zhaoge narrowed his eyes slightly, "Is it also because of that treasured light of the power of faith?"
Yin Tianxia looked at the two of them with a complicated expression.
It seemed to be pity, disdain, anger, and helplessness. In the end, it all turned into a sigh.
"Even though you guys pushed open the Immortal Gate, you guys weren't the ones who pushed it open."
"You all stand above countless people, but you already don't understand the inheritances of your ancestors, what principles they are talking about."
He raised his hand and pushed his palm forward. In the center of his palm, light and darkness fused together.
His palm seemed to be half covered in light and half in darkness. Yet, it also seemed to be enveloped by a layer of light that was neither dazzling nor bright, neither light nor darkness.
Where his palm passed, light vanished and darkness ceased to exist.
Everything turned dusky as light and darkness were hard to distinguish as it was like chaos.
Yin Tianxia said mildly, "In pre-Great Calamity times, the Dark Heaven Sword Sect and Vast Yang Palace often clashed with my Dim Radiant Sect. It was hard to determine who was superior."
"Today, however, victory and defeat are clear at a glance."
Yin Tianxia resembled a descending divinity as he illuminated his two opponents to the point where their light was dim, "We are all cultivators, slaying the dao to see our true selves."
With a single palm, the two opponents before him were both defeated!
The scene of light came to an abrupt end here.
Looking at the vanishing scene, Yan Zhaoge and Fu Ting both frowned and pondered.
Meanwhile, those of the Chaotic Heavenly Sect broke out in curses.
Yang Chong's expression was complex as he shook his head and sighed.
Recovering, Yan Zhaoge looked at Fu Ting. She said, "It was indeed just a simple trace left behind in the midst of a battle."
"Has the remnant aura from which you came into contact already been destroyed?" Yan Zhaoge asked Yang Chong.
Yang Chong smiled bitterly, "It should be so."
Quan Haolong said in a low tone, "After the matter with you, senior apprentice-uncle Yang, the other seniors of our sect arrived afterwards and completely razed that remnant to the ground."
Yan Zhaoge raised his head and pondered for a moment before he suddenly asked, "Do you know where other people like him appeared besides him?"
Whether it was Yang Chong or Quan Haolong and the others, they were all taken aback.
Those Chaotic Heavenly Sect martial practitioners said exasperatedly, "A traitor like him who was bewitched by you of the external dao would already be the greatest joke of the world!"
Yan Zhaoge was not concerned as he just nodded slightly, "There is only one in this Lofty Towering World?"
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, Fu Ting asked via sound transmission, "You seem to be implying something?"
Gazing around, Yan Zhaoge answered, "The Dim Radiant Emperor fought one against two, domineeringly defeating two experts of the dao tradition of the Immortal Court who could also claim the title of Emperor, demonstrating the might of our generation's direct lineage of the Three Clear lineages."
"Martial practitioners of the Immortal Court who are witnessing this for the first time will indeed be rather shocked."
Yan Zhaoge's gaze was distant, "Still, it was not just Yang Chong alone who witnessed this scene. There were others of the Chaotic Heavenly Sect present as well. Why was it that only the treasured light within Yang Chong's body was unstable, his faith in the Immeasurable Heavenly Lord completely wavering?"
"Because his cultivation base was the highest and his horizons the broadest, it was instead easier for him to accept changes that surpassed his preconceived notions? Because he was actually very intelligent? "
"While his talent and comprehension abilities are actually very high, being able to achieve much in normal martial cultivation like us without relying on the treasured light of the power of faith," Yan Zhaoge said, "I feel that that is not the reason."
Fu Ting said slowly, "You suspect that someone set up some sort of mechanism in the remnant, with Yang Chong being the one who stepped on it, thus resulting in a change?"
Yan Zhaoge nodded, "Someone who would do such a thing does not seem like a Buddhist martial practitioner. Instead, it seems more like a descendant of our orthodox Three Clear lineage."
Fu Ting pondered, "It is not impossible. Sadly, that remnant has already been destroyed, making it hard for us to verify it."
Yan Zhaoge did not reply. He had actually left the latter half of what he had just said unfinished.
Connecting this to the situation of his mother, Xue Chuqing, as well as the relationship between her lineage and the Dim Radiant Sect back then, Yan Zhaoge vaguely had a feeling.
This seemed a little like his mother's doing.
At his current cultivation base, his Sudden Inspiration senses were no longer illusory as he instead indistinctly sensed the principles of the heavens and the earth, being profound beyond compare.
While he could not completely believe it, he had to believe it as well.
Perhaps his mother being hunted down had something to do with the death of the Dim Radiant Emperor and the Immortal Court?
Yan Zhaoge had not heard any news of Xue Chuqing after having narrowly missed her by a single step at the border between the eastern Vast Heaven Territory and the northeastern Sky Heaven Territory in the World beyond Worlds.
Could it be that his mother had done the exact opposite, believing that the most dangerous place was the safest, instead leaving the world of the Three Clear lineages and hiding in the lands of the Immortal Court? (To be continued.)
