"Let's prepare for battle!"
After the crowd left, Ancient Sage Yan Qing turned to look at the master teachers behind him and nodded discreetly.
"Un."
The crowd nodded grimly.
Now that the juniors had entered the Prime Hall, they would have to take care of the rest.
Seeing that the Ancient Sages of the other three powers were gathered together, ready to fight at any moment, the Ancient Sages of the other three powers did not dare to breathe too loudly.
"Yang shi, arrange for those who have yet to reach Ancient Sage to leave the area," Zhang Hongtian instructed.
Knowing that the situation was dangerous, Yang Xuan flew over to Ren Qingyuan and instructed, "Yes!"
The rest of the matter was no longer something that Great Sages could interfere with.
Rather than being implicated here, it would be better for them to leave.
The Master Teacher Pavilion and the Sage Clans began to retreat. Those who had not reached Ancient Sage from the Hundred Schools of Philosophers, the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe, and the Beast Tribe also began to retreat. It did not take long before there were only twenty or so Ancient Sages left in the square.
The reason why the master teachers and the Otherworldly Demonic Tribe were able to stay together was not because they had resolved the conflict but because no one dared to make the first move. However, this stalemate would soon be broken with the appearance of the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn.
Twenty Ancient Sages might seem like a lot, but they were the final strength of the Master Teacher Continent. No one could say for sure how many Ancient Sages would be left after this.
"Zhang Shi, this is something that my senior secretly passed to me earlier. He told me to pass it to you!"
Yang shi walked up to Zhang Hongtian and passed a jade token over with a flick of his wrist.
"This is for me?"
Knowing that the senior that Yang shi was referring to was his junior known as Zhang Xuan, Zhang Hongtian was taken aback for a moment before he took the jade token and tapped it.
Following which, he felt a sliver of consciousness flowing into his mind.
"This … This is a flaw in Old Geezer Yu's cultivation?"
Zhang Hongtian narrowed his eyes in astonishment.
What was being transmitted into his mind was the flaws in Old Geezer Yu's cultivation and battle techniques. There were more than thirty of them, and if exploited properly, they could easily kill him.
"H-how did he know all of this?"
Zhang Hongtian had thought that it was nonsense, but after taking a look at a few of them, he realized that it was true.
He had fought more than a hundred battles with Old Geezer Yu over the course of his life, so he was well aware of the latter's trump card and the prowess it wielded. Everything that was written on the scroll was accurate!
If he were to make good use of this artifact, there was a good chance that he would be able to slay Old Geezer Yu!
Those who had reached the Blood Reincarnation realm could already be said to be invincible. Unless one were to set up an inescapable net, it would be extremely difficult to kill them. However, if one were to make use of these flaws, they would be able to kill a Blood Reincarnation realm cultivator once and for all. Just this point alone was invaluable!
"This guy is really too surprising …"
Zhang Hongtian remarked as he grew more and more curious about this junior of his.
On top of that, he had single-handedly obtained the five cruxes of the formation and the Prime Amulet in his hands. He was actually willing to auction off the slots that the other three powers could only dream of! More importantly, he did not fear an expert like Old Geezer Yu in the slightest, and he even managed to find all of the flaws in the Prime Amulet!
"Actually … Zhang Shi, twenty years ago, you were severely injured, and you needed a pure bloodline to recover. It was this Zhang Xuan who sacrificed his own bloodline to nourish you, allowing you to survive!"
Yang shi hesitated for a moment before replying.
At that time, Ancestor Hongtian was seriously injured and fell into a deep sleep. No one mentioned that he had changed his bloodline, so not many people knew about it.
As Yang shi was the one who was operating the formation personally, he had a clear understanding of it.
"You mean to say that … his blood flows through my veins?" Zhang Hongtian was taken aback.
"Indeed!" Yang shi nodded.
"It's no wonder I felt a sense of closeness to him as soon as I saw him …" Zhang Hongtian nodded in realization.
He had been wondering why Zhang Xuan felt so close to him the moment he saw him. So this was the reason.
"To be able to save me despite having my bloodline stripped away, not only did he manage to survive, he even possesses unimaginable talent … It seems like we don't have to worry about our Zhang clan anymore …"
Zhang Hongtian couldn't help but sigh as he went through all the information he had learned. He was getting more and more curious about this Zhang Xuan.
…
Hu!
Zhang Xuan couldn't care less about the changes that had occurred outside. He had no idea what kind of impact the gift he had given Zhang Hongtian would have on the world, but before he knew it, he was already standing in a spacious hall.
This hall was clearly much grander than the Subordinate Hall, and the spiritual energy in the area was much denser as well. Paintings were inscribed on the walls, and it felt as if the figures in the paintings would come to life at any moment.
"These paintings aren't comparable to the Canvas of Four Seasons, and they don't have the Aeon of Ancient Sage in them either!"
After taking a look, Zhang Xuan shook his head.
These were just ordinary paintings, and they did not seal a world. As such, they did not have the Aeon of Ancient Sage in them. As valuable as they were, they were no longer attractive to the current him.
The three Otherworldly Demons glanced at one another before reaching out to collect the paintings. However, before they could do so, a spear suddenly appeared before them, blocking their path.
"Since the three of you are already here, I would like to have a chat with you."
Zhang Xuan smiled faintly as he looked at the three Otherworldly Demons.
The reason why he had dared to sell the slots to them was because he had already made up his mind to get rid of them after entering the Prime Hall.
Otherwise, they would just be an eyesore.
No matter how powerful the three Otherworldly Demons were, it should not be too difficult for him, Zhao Ya, Lozosy, and the others to kill them.
"You …"
Not expecting Zhang Xuan to fall out with them as soon as they arrived, the faces of the three Otherworldly Demons warped in horror. They glanced at one another and said, "Let's go!"
After saying those words, he took out a jade token and crushed it.
Hula!
A streak of light shrouded the three of them, and in the blink of an eye, they were already far away.
"Seal!"
Zhang Xuan flicked his finger, and the surrounding space was immediately sealed.
Kacha!
The streak of light tore the space apart, and the three silhouettes disappeared from sight.
"It's an artifact left behind by an Ancient Sage!"
Zhang Xuan shook his head.
It was not that he was too weak, but that streak of light was simply too powerful. It seemed like Old Geezer Yu knew that he would make a move on them, so he had bestowed a powerful life-saving artifact upon them.
If he had released the Infernal Blacksaber, he might have been able to kill the other party. However, they were in the Prime Hall, and there was no telling whether there were any restrictions or not. Unless the situation was dire, he would not dare to act recklessly.
"Forget it, there's no hurry!"
Since everyone was prepared, it would not be as easy to kill as before. However, it did not matter either way. With Little Amulet in hand, even if he could not obtain the Great Codex of Spring and Autumn, no one else could dream of obtaining it!
With such thoughts in mind, Zhang Xuan turned to Yan Xue and the others.
"They have escaped. Why don't we have a chat?"
"Hu!"
Before Zhang Xuan could finish his words, Yan Xue and the others also vanished from the spot.
Zhang Xuan turned to look at the remaining two beasts, and before he could even focus his gaze on them, he heard them shouting, "Don't look at us! We'll leave on our own, alright?"
Hula!
They vanished as well.
"…" Zhang Xuan.
"…" The crowd.
