The Northern Divine Mountain.
As the only way to reach Ye Zichen's Divine Mountain, Yin Shang and Gou Yuzhan headed to the Northern Divine Mountain to fend off the enemy.
In truth, Su Liu 'er had been there as well, but when she heard the nine-tailed foxes had been injured, she'd rushed over an hour ago. As for Su Yiyun, one of the Four Auxiliary Stars, he always appeared and disappeared mysteriously. The two of them didn't expect him to show up.
"Yin Shang? Doesn't that sound familiar?"
"Familiar?"
"The Impure Earth Reincarnation! You've been in the Modern Realm before, haven't you? Don't you think these guys are Impure Earth Reincarnations? "
After forcing back hundreds of reincarnated experts with his staff, Gou Yuzhan glared at Yin Shang and panted.
"To tell you the truth, I've been too tired lately. I really want to rest!"
"Rest? Who doesn't want to rest? It's just that this isn't the time for us to rest!"
Yin Shang's gaze was resolute. If you looked closely, you'd see his hand trembling as he gripped his sword.
Even if they were experts at the Imperial Monarch Realm, those reincarnators who didn't know pain and fought like suicide squad members were far inferior to them in terms of cultivation.
Reincarnated experts could push them back with a wave of their hands, but even so, their strength would be depleted.
Everyone needed information. Yin Shang wanted it too!
But before the chaos of war ended, before the Emperor Star awoke … As the Auxiliary Stars, they had to stand at the forefront and buy time for the Emperor Star.
He couldn't retreat!
In response, Gou Yuzhan shrugged resentfully. In truth, he'd only said that out of spite.
However, he'd forgotten that Yin Shang was a stubborn loyalist. Especially after inheriting the will of the Auxiliary Stars, he'd become even more stubborn. Yin Shang's insistence left Gou Yuzhan speechless. All he could do was sigh silently, raise his staff, and charge forward.
At that moment …..
Boom!
A deafening boom reverberated throughout the entire Northern Divine Mountain. Gou Yuzhan suddenly stopped in his tracks, staff in hand.
"Something's wrong!"
From the start of the chaos, the explosions had been endless.
However, this one was completely different. Gou Yuzhan's sharp senses instantly sensed that something was amiss. When he looked in Yin Shang's direction, he realized that Yin Shang had long since looked in that direction.
"Let's go take a look!"
Not long after, Yin Shang waved the sword in his hand and released a Sword Qi.
He sliced the enemies around him in half and ran towards the source of the explosion. Gou Yuzhan followed closely behind, but before he could even run a thousand meters …
Hum –
A heavy pressure suddenly came from the front.
"Yin Shang!"
Gou Yuzhan's staff was firmly planted in front of him. He found it difficult to breathe under this spiritual pressure. The veins in his arm were about to burst, and a faint mist of blood appeared on his arm.
At Gou Yuzhan's call, Yin Shang turned around and their eyes met.
Although the two of them did not say anything, they seemed to have reached a consensus in their hearts.
Retreat!
They didn't run towards the source of life, but ran in the opposite direction without any hesitation.
In the short span of ten seconds...
They hurried to the border of the Northern Divine Mountain.
If they retreated further, they would reach the tenth divine mountain where Chaos City was located!
"Yin Shang, do you feel it?"
Gou Yuzhan's eyes were filled with fear. His eyes flickered as he looked in front of him. His face was filled with confusion and helplessness.
The spiritual pressure just now was like a nightmare with its bloody mouth wide open.
Their instincts were screaming at them that they couldn't take even half a step forward. If they did, they would die!
It was this instinct that made them retreat without any hesitation.
"Of course I feel it!"
Yin Shang's eyes flickered with fear as he panted heavily.
However, before Gou Yuzhan could say anything else …
Hum –
It's here again!
The spiritual pressure came crashing down again. Gou Yuzhan immediately wanted to retreat, but he heard Yin Shang shout angrily.
"You're not allowed to retreat!"
This shout made Gou Yuzhan's body come to an abrupt halt. He struggled to turn around and meet up with Yin Shang. The two of them worked together to resist the spiritual pressure.
"I didn't expect there to be someone alive!"
Someone murmured in the sky. Gou Yuzhan and Yin Shang looked up at the same time.
"Zhou Wu!"
The person standing in the sky was none other than God Emperor Zhou Wu. When he heard their shouts, he looked in their direction.
"It's you two!"
Zhou Wu naturally remembered Gou Yuzhan and Yin Shang.
Everything that had happened outside the Transcendence tomb was still fresh in his mind. The four Auxiliary Stars had worked together to beat him until he had to flee in panic.
It was also those four Auxiliary Stars that had nearly destroyed his dreams of transcendence.
How could he forget such memories?
"What a coincidence. I really wanted to look for you two, but you delivered yourselves to my doorstep. Why is it just the two of you? Where are the other two Auxiliary Stars? "
"You've transcended!" Yin Shang gritted his teeth.
"Yes, I've transcended!" Zhou Wu laughed mockingly. "You must be surprised that I've transcended. Are you regretting that you didn't … Forget it, it's useless even if you regret it. There's no medicine for regret in this world!"
Unbeknownst to them, Zhou Wu's words had hit Yin Shang's heart.
They shouldn't have let him go back then!
Letting him go was akin to nurturing a tiger that would invite calamity. Furthermore, this calamity had grown to a point where they couldn't even fight back.
"It looks like you two are protecting your Emperor Stars, aren't you?"
Zhou Wu chuckled and nodded approvingly.
"To be honest, you're already pretty good. In the entire Northern Divine Mountain, you two are the only ones capable of withstanding my spiritual pressure. "
"What do you mean …."
"It's just as you think. The others died a long time ago. You can't really put it that way. They're not really dead. They're just living in a different way. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Yin Shang and Gou Yuzhan saw a dense mass of people marching towards them.
They recognized quite a few of these people. They were all former elders and retainers of the Xue Family. Not long ago, they'd fought together against enemies, but now, they'd all become corpses.
Gulp.
Gou Yuzhan couldn't help but gulp when he saw this.
The arm that was holding the rod began to tremble uncontrollably, and the fear in his eyes was magnified at this moment.
He'd practically lost the ability to think. His legs trembled, and there was only one thought in his head.
Run!
He hurtled backwards, but a blur suddenly appeared in front of him.
Gou Yuzhan immediately stopped in his tracks. Only when he stopped did he see a silver longsword pointed at his throat. His throat was only a millimeter away from the tip of the sword.
The sharpness of the blade forced him to take two steps back.
"Yin Shang!"
"What are you trying to do!?" Yin Shang pointed his sword at Gou Yuzhan. "You were trying to run just now, weren't you?"
"Why wouldn't I run? Zhou Wu has transcended. How could we possibly be his match? And those Impure Reincarnated bastards, can't you see? They could beat us to death with just their fists! "
"So what?"
