At the end of the corridor was a hall, but there was no path leading to the depths of Taiji Palace.
Everyone gathered in the hall, not knowing how to continue exploring Taiji Palace, but the corridor and hall were obviously only the tip of the iceberg. If they did not continue moving forward, no one would be satisfied. After all, in order to open the side door, everyone had used up most of the divine stones they obtained in One-Line-Sky.
As for the treasures obtained in the room in the corridor, they were actually not that rare in the Three Realms.
All the powerhouses could guess that there was something wrong with the four statues, but they could only stare at them. Some of the bolder ones only dared to touch them.
Xiao Lingyu, the only one who had seen through some clues, was now immersed in comprehending the truth of Primal Chaos. The entire hall was very quiet, and the four statues did not change because of the increase in the number of powerhouses in the hall.
"I think behind these four statues is the way to go deeper into Taiji Palace!"
A powerhouse suddenly shouted, and then said, "Everyone, let's move these statues with me."
This proposal was approved by most of the cultivators, and everyone moved to the front of one of the statues, and then exerted their strength together, trying to move it.
It was unknown what the statue was made of, but it was extremely heavy. Dozens of powerhouses exerted their strength together, but they were unable to make the statue tremble in the slightest.
Except for Xiao Lingyu and a few others, almost all the powerhouses of the Three Realms exerted their strength, but the statue still did not move.
Naturally, everyone exerted more and more strength. Moreover, most of the experts had already begun to circulate their martial arts to increase their strength. When everyone's faces and ears turned red, the statue really did tremble, as if it would move away if it received any more force.
However, everyone's attention was focused on this statue, so they did not notice that the other three statues suddenly trembled at this time.
"It's already shaking, let's put in more effort!" A powerhouse reminded loudly.
All the cultivators exerted the last of their strength, and they really did move the statue a little to the other side.
Xiao Lingyu suddenly woke up from his comprehension because he felt that the power of the four symbols in the hall had changed greatly. If the power of the four symbols was only entangled to form an indistinct and stable domain before, the power of the four symbols was now a little chaotic.
However, this was something that the other powerhouses could not sense.
"What are they doing?"
Xiao Lingyu couldn't help but be surprised when she saw the experts of the Three Realms working together to move the statue.
"They said there was a way behind the statue, so they wanted to push the statue away," Anya replied.
"Nonsense, this statue can't be touched so easily! Let's get out of here! "
After recovering from her shock, Xiao Lingyu immediately used her inner power to wrap around the people around her and was about to leave the hall.
However, they didn't realize that the door leading to the corridor had disappeared. Now, all four walls of the hall were sealed.
"It's too late." Xiao Lingyu had just turned around when she stopped moving.
The statue had been moved two fingers wide, and it did look like there was a door behind it.
However, before everyone could rejoice, the statue that had been moved suddenly exploded. Following that, an extremely monstrous monster appeared before everyone's eyes. It released an extremely powerful aura that pushed all of the cultivators away.
Everyone was shocked at this moment. While they were still in shock, the other three statues exploded at the same time.
The four statues were replaced by four strange-looking monsters. These monsters were all big and round. It was impossible to tell which species they belonged to just by looking at their appearance. Moreover, it felt like their bodies were pieced together from the limbs of many wild beasts.
For example, the monster that was blown up by the moving statue had the head of a hippopotamus, the body of a crocodile, the arms of a frog-like creature, and the legs of a cow.
Although their bodies looked like they were randomly pieced together, the aura of the four monsters was very pure and not messy at all. Moreover, their auras were very powerful, giving people a feeling that they were invincible. It was obvious that the strength of these four monsters was at least a level higher than that of a Supremacy.
Through the gaps in the bodies of these four monsters, everyone could vaguely see that there was a door behind each of them. However, these four monsters were like the four statues from before. They blocked the door firmly and had no intention of letting everyone leave easily.
Sensing the strength of the four monsters, the experts of the Three Realms in the hall gathered into their own groups. They all looked at the four monsters with solemn expressions. However, they were not prepared to unite as one. In truth, it was impossible for them to unite as one. They could only try to cooperate with their own side.
The four monsters did not give everyone too much time to think of a countermeasure. After ten breaths of time after they appeared, they let out a roar together. Then, each of them released an invisible force that instantly created an extremely powerful domain in the hall.
This domain was many times stronger than the Four Symbols Domain from before. Everyone could clearly feel the enormous pressure.
Even Xiao Lingyu felt that it was a little difficult to withstand this Four Symbols Domain. His Chaotic Domain had only been released for less than two breaths before it was crushed by the Four Symbols Domain.
The other powerhouses of the Three Realms could not release their domains at all.
Under the envelopment of the Four Symbols Domain, cultivators whose cultivation had not reached the Venerable Rank were practically unable to move. Even Venerable Rank powerhouses' speed was reduced by more than half, and their strength was suppressed by more than fifty percent. This made everyone even more fearful, and they could not muster up the courage to attack.
After the Four Symbols Domain was formed, the true attacks of the four monsters began. Streaks of pure light that were either Shao Yang, Shao Yin, Yang, or Lunar Yin were shot out by them and attacked everyone at an extremely fast speed.
Moreover, the four monsters' attacks came wave after wave as if they would not stop at all.
Their attacks were supported by the Four Symbols Domain, while the powerhouses of the Three Realms were restricted by the Four Symbols Domain. The four monsters were already much stronger than everyone in terms of cultivation. Even though the powerhouses of the Three Realms had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, the situation was still extremely dangerous.
Everyone huddled together to defend, but as soon as the defensive light barrier was set up, it would be destroyed by the streaks of light, and then their defensive treasures would be sent flying.
Xiao Lingyu turned the Primordial Chaos Fire into a purplish-black fire dragon to surround the few of them, and then attacked the incoming streaks of light with the three girls.
Everyone could still resist for a while, but if the attacks continued, they would definitely not be able to hold on for long.
"This is definitely not the way to go. We have to counterattack to survive!"
At this moment, the Dragon Emperor shouted, and then a golden bead appeared above his head. The golden bead projected a golden light screen that enveloped his entire body. He no longer blocked the attacks of the light streams. Instead, he took out a golden bone spear and attacked the monster closest to him.
Surprisingly, when the powerful streaks of light hit the Dragon Emperor's golden light barrier, they could only cause the light barrier to tremble, but were unable to break it immediately. Moreover, the golden light barrier continued to protect the Dragon Emperor's body after withstanding more than ten streaks of light consecutively.
Even when the Dragon Emperor was in front of it, the monster did not move at all. It only waved its palm and slapped at the Dragon Emperor.
The golden bone spear stabbed at the monster's huge and solid palm. Surprisingly, the golden bone spear easily pierced through the monster's palm, but the monster's palm still quickly slapped down, following the bone spear and fiercely slapping the golden pearl floating above the Dragon Emperor's head.
After being slapped by the monster's palm, the golden pearl suddenly trembled, and the golden light barrier that it released to cover the Dragon Emperor's body also disappeared.
The other three monsters shot dozens of streaks of light at the Dragon Emperor, as if they wanted to take advantage of the Dragon Emperor's weak defense to kill him.
If the Dragon Emperor took these dozens of streaks of light head-on, even if he did not die, he would most likely be seriously injured.
At such a critical juncture, anyone would want to see the Dragon Emperor injured. After all, he was the main force resisting these monsters. If he was injured or killed in battle, it would not benefit anyone at all.
Therefore, the powerhouses of the Three Realms took action at the same time, using various treasures and magical abilities to intercept the streaks of light that were attacking the Dragon Emperor.
Under the efforts of the powerhouses of the Three Realms, only a few streaks of light hit the Dragon Emperor, but the Dragon Emperor's golden soft armor blocked them.
"Everyone, attack the monsters next to you. They are not immortal, nor are they undefeatable!"
The Dragon Emperor pulled out his golden bone spear and shouted to everyone as he retreated.
The first to respond to the Dragon Emperor were naturally the powerhouses of the Shifter Clan. After that, they followed the Dragon Emperor and continued to attack the monster whose palm was already injured.
Perhaps the golden bone spear piercing through the monster's palm gave everyone confidence, but without the Dragon Emperor's reminder, all the powerhouses of the Three Realms began to counterattack the monsters nearby.
Everyone was not as strong as the Dragon Emperor. Even if they could hit the immobile monsters with all their might, they could only make the monsters cry out in pain at most, and could not cause any substantial damage.
During the counterattack, their defense would naturally drop a lot. The four monsters did not defend and only attacked. Therefore, when everyone hit the four monsters, it was inevitable that they would be hit by the streaks of light. Late-stage Emperors would be seriously injured even if they did not die from the streaks of light, while Supremacies would most likely be sent flying and vomit blood.
The only weakness of these four monsters was that they couldn't move, so the attacks of the experts of the three realms could easily land on them. However, every time the experts of the three realms attacked them, they would definitely suffer great losses. But no matter what, they had no other choice. They could only continue like this.
Xiao Lingyu and the others also participated in the counterattack, but Xiao Lingyu did not give up on defense. Furthermore, he was in charge of defense, while Anya attacked with Merciless Divine Sword.
