The seven palaces were bathed in endless divine light, as if they were the kingdoms of gods that had descended upon the mortal world.
BOOM! BOOM!
Every time the palaces sank, dazzling devilish light sputtered out of the dark-green ward created by the Heaven-Sealing Soul Transforming Formation.
Clusters of complicated, profound devilish patterns instantly appeared on the ward's surface.
Countless ancient devilish symbols and characters, which seemed to be in harmony with the magical laws of Dao, burst forth with unimaginable might.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Like heavenly dragons, cyan and black lightning bolts formed a grand spell formation on the ward's surface and swam about in a mighty manner.
Every time the palaces transformed from the Heaven Palace Seals fell with a loud rumble, they would be thrown into the air by the ward's bouncing force, as if boulders had been smashed into a net of springs.
Powerful Xuantianzong experts resided in each of the seven palaces. Some were at the Carefree realm, some were at the Yang God realm, and most of them were at the Soul Wander realm.
Xuantianzong cultivators were stationed in each of the seven palaces, but they didn't unleash their powerful spiritual tools. Instead, they simply held down the fort with the Heaven Palace Seals.
Cao Jiaze floated in the air above the palaces by himself, his face grim.
There were many powerful experts in Xuantianzong this time, including Carefree realm cultivators. Many of them had higher cultivation bases and seniority than he did. However, Cao Jiaze was the one who gave the orders.
All of the Xuantianzong disciples, elders, and guest elders were at his beck and call.
Even though he had failed in the battle in the Land of Terror, he hadn't lost the sectmaster's trust.
He had long since proven his abilities in various aspects. With his new Yang God cultivation base, he derived enlightenment from the fluctuations created by the seven Heaven Palace Seals crashing into the ward below him.
Every time a cluster of devilish patterns appeared in the dark-green ward, they would instantly become a part of his memory.
The wonders of the ancient devilish symbols resonated with the magical laws of heaven and earth. He was secretly trying to grasp their wonders.
He knew that the sectmaster still trusted him, and wouldn't doubt his abilities just because of his failure in the Land of Terror.
However, there were many factions in Xuantianzong, and many of them were dissatisfied with him, and didn't want him to succeed the position of sectmaster.
Those people had already begun to talk about the failure of the Realm of Terror. If the invasion of the forbidden land of the Falling Moons went awry again, his status in Xuantianzong would definitely be affected.
"I hope that brat Yu Yuan won't surprise me again. Tian Cang is also here. Because of the Blue Devil's Tear that I lost, I'll have to get it back. "Cao Jiaze thought to himself.
Meanwhile.
Fan Heqing and Ji Ningshuang of the Sword Sect, Feng Pu, Mo Baichuan, and Tang Zheng of the Primal Yang Sect, and the sectmaster of the Spirit Void Sect also stopped in midair and stared at the ward.
Everyone knew that the Sealing Heaven Soul Dissolving Formation could not be underestimated, and they also knew that it could not be broken so easily.
They were also pondering the mysteries of this formation, trying to see if they could comprehend some of its mysteries and find a more efficient way to break it.
On the other end, they also saw the damage that Ancient God Golden Elephant's golden mountain had done to the array.
After a while.
Seven majestic palaces floated in the air one after another and scattered around Cao Jiaze. Because of this, the turbulent greenish-black barrier also regained its calm.
"The soul of the Soul-dissolving Pool has awakened. Fan Heqing of the Sword Sect frowned. "This Heaven-Sealing Soul Dispersing Formation is very close to the seventh grade. This time, we need to destroy the Soul-dissolving Pool as much as possible. We can't leave any loose ends behind. Also, we need to find a way to destroy the inter-realm tunnel. "
Cao Jiaze nodded with a smile. "After this clash, I'm sure all of the outsider crooks in the forbidden land have realized our sincerity. What I'm curious about is whether any conflicts have broken out between the outsiders and those who have entered the forbidden land. "
Feng Pu went blank. "Are you saying...?"
"I'd like to see internal strife." Cao Jiaze paused for a moment before continuing, "I don't believe that their alliance is strong enough. If they fight among themselves in the forbidden land, our purge after breaking the ward will be much smoother. "
Many of the great cultivators nodded with approval in their eyes.
They had also thought of the same thing, and believed that the Devils in the forbidden area and the starry river might not be able to unite with humans like Yu Yuan, Luo Yue, and Xi Quan against a common enemy.
… …
At the Dragonslaying Platform.
Seeing that Ancient God Golden Elephant's golden mountain had crashed into the Heaven Sealing Soul Dissipating Formation seven times with its sharp peak, the crowd felt slightly more at ease.
"The Shenhun Sect's grand formation is quite impressive." Can Li of the Radiant Light Race had just noticed that every time the golden mountains crashed into the barrier, hundreds of Demonic Rune Arrays of various sizes would appear and nullify the golden power that was strong enough to force even Freedom Realm cultivators to use their full power.
"The humans have replaced us as the strongest race in the universe. Of course they have their own strengths." A mocking smile appeared at the corner of Tian Cang's mouth. "Those old bastards only wanted to get rid of the annoying dragons. They never thought that they would create an even stronger human instead."
The moment he mentioned this, the expressions of the rank nine bloodline warriors present turned ugly.
Clearly, they knew some ancient secrets to a certain extent...
Whoosh!
A wide, black demonic saber suddenly appeared outside the ward. Mo Yan stood on the demonic saber in the form of a middle-aged man. He swung the saber left and right in a domineering and arrogant manner.
"Who is he? I don't know why, but I felt disgusted from the first time I saw him. "Kuero of the Silver Scale Race's expression darkened.
"That's the Kyara Demonic Saber," Beirut of the Star Race snorted softly.
"The Kyara Demonic Saber? Then he must be Zhu Zhen Ying's son, Mo Yan?" Mia of the Dark Spirit Race's expression changed slightly. "Didn't I hear that he was severely injured in the Land of Terror not long ago? It didn't take long for him to recover all of his strength. He's now in the middle Soul Wander Realm! "
Tian Cang grinned. "Since you all know that he's Zhu Zhen Ying's son and cultivates the Reincarnation Demonic Art, which steals the fortunes of heaven and earth, then with Zhu Zhen Ying's own strength and the Devil's Palace's resources, it'll be a piece of cake for him to bring his only son back to life, as long as he's not completely dead."
The moment he mentioned Zhu Zhen Ying, the second-in-command of the Devil's Palace, the expressions of many of the outsider experts present turned ugly.
Zhu Zhen Ying's reputation in the outer realms was much worse than Devil Master Tan Xiaotian's. He was an expert in outnumbering others, and he was an expert in strategizing and strategizing. Many high-ranking outsider warriors had died at his hands.
Moreover, Zhu Zhen Ying was known for his ruthlessness. Many of the weaker races and realms that Zhu Zhen Ying had passed through had been wiped out.
"Since the one who came is Zhu Zhen Ying's son, then the forces the Devil's Palace has placed in the forbidden land of the Fallen Moons must be on Zhu Zhen Ying's side." Can Li of the Radiant Race looked up into the dark sky and said, "If I'm not mistaken, those close to Devil Master Tan Xiaotian and the Devil Master himself should be in the outer realms of the starry river right now."
Everyone nodded inwardly upon hearing these words.
Other than Mo Yan, all of the guests from the Devil's Palace were hidden behind layers of demonic shadows. Their true appearances couldn't be seen. However, given the outsider experts' knowledge of the Devil's Palace, they could roughly guess who they were.
Enormous dragons appeared in their true forms and surrounded the old high chieftain, Long Jie, while letting out deep roars.
"There are also people from the Juling School and the Guifu School."
Can Li's eyes suddenly blossomed with dazzling light. Not only did her gaze penetrate the ward, but it also shone on the back of the group. She recognized the two groups of cultivators that had been excluded from the main group. They were the two groups that had arranged for their elites to go to the Fiend Demon Sect's mountain range to participate in the trade fair.
"The Juling School and the Guifu School must have given in to the Devil's Palace and the Goblin Temple," Beirut said with a disdainful expression. The corner of Beirut's mouth twitched as he said disdainfully, "Perhaps, he even killed those who participated in the trade fair to cut ties with the sect."
Many outsider experts nodded slightly, as if they had guessed as much.
WHOOSH! WHOOSH!
Sitting on the Dragon Beheading Platform, Yu Yuan suddenly exhaled deeply. Every breath he exhaled was extremely turbid, as if he were clearing out the impurities that had accumulated in his body due to his rapid breakthrough. FIZZ!
FIZZ!
The pores all over his body were also overflowing with a faint light.
Tian Cang, who was in charge of the Blood Spirit Altar, narrowed his eyes and took a look. He couldn't help but let out a soft exclamation. "He's refining the drops of Blood Essence you gave him, and removing the impurities that can't fuse with his body and soul! I can't believe this kid actually managed to withstand so much ninth grade Blood Essence! "
As he spoke, the Blood Spirit Altar that had been embedded in his forehead quietly emerged.
The Turbid Demon Fetus at the bottom of the altar morphed into a blue shadow that enveloped Yu Yuan like a blue shield of light. "I can't waste the impurities he removed from his body. I have use for them!"
Tian Cang's eyes lit up as a smile blossomed on his face.
But in just a moment, his smile froze, and he cursed angrily, "Damn it!"
