Seeing the true power of the Nine Tribulations technique, Zong Zhen and the other disciples were envious. However, they had no choice. Mu Fanjun would not easily reveal the Nine Tribulations technique. Otherwise, if her disciples harbored ill intentions, they might not be able to resolve the situation and even suffer the backlash.
In fact, the Six Sages were the same. Since ancient times, masters had always held back when teaching their disciples. As the saying goes, a cat teaches a tiger to hold back.
Although Hong Tian and Fu Qing, who were trying their best to stop Feng Beichen, attacked fiercely, they could not do anything to Feng Beichen. The Boundless Great Technique was an eye for an eye. Together with the superimposed attacks of Feng Beichen's transcendence energy, with two loud booms, the two people who were blocking Feng Beichen were forced to retreat.
The one who caused him the most trouble was Invincible Eagle. In the small world, Invincible Eagle's attack speed was as fast as his name suggested. He didn't fight with brute force, but with speed. His claws repeatedly struck at Feng Beichen's vitals and kept him occupied.
In that split second, Mu Fanjun had already arrived. Feng Beichen hastily retaliated with a palm strike.
Mu Fanjun and Feng Beichen were knocked back at the same time. Facing Mu Fanjun, Feng Beichen's Boundless Great Technique was greatly reduced. His cultivation was not yet at the level where he could neutralize the thunderbolt's attack. His expression was twitching, and he grimaced in pain as he cast his technique to withstand the seven consecutive thunderbolts.
However, the Boundless Art was unique. Although it couldn't block thunderbolt attacks, it could block attacks with real power. Naturally, Mu Fanjun wasn't much better off.
Feng Beichen took the opportunity to quickly soar into the sky and shake off Invincible Eagle's attack. Electricity crackled around his body as he quickly flew away.
He didn't continue to attack Miao Yi. He had already lost his chance. He didn't expect the Four Overlords to still be on high alert to protect Miao Yi. Their entanglement had caused him to lose his chance to kill Miao Yi. Mu Fanjun was already prepared. It was impossible to kill Miao Yi now, so he could only leave. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to fight Mu Fanjun, so there was no need to waste his energy.
Along the way, when there weren't so many people watching, Feng Beichen wanted to kill Miao Yi. However, Cui Yongzhen was in Miao Yi's hands, and she was protected by the Great Devil Realm and Subjugation Crusade. He couldn't find a chance.
In other words, when the Exquisite Refinement Sect demanded that Miao Yi hand over Cui Yongzhen, he already had the intention to kill him. In the Exquisite Refinement Sect, he had to show that he was a Dao Saint and would keep his word. However, once he left the Exquisite Refinement Sect, he would have to make a move. Who would have thought! Miao Yi actually chose to sacrifice the four Overlords instead of letting Cui Yongzhen leave his grasp. Even if he had to die, he would use Cui Yongzhen as a shield!
He couldn't wait to kill Miao Yi even if he had to sacrifice Cui Yongzhen. However, at his level, he was no longer easily swayed by his emotions. He would weigh the pros and cons more carefully. Exchanging Cui Yongzhen's life for Miao Yi's was clearly not worth it.
It wasn't easy to nurture a direct disciple to the Golden Lotus realm. It required a large amount of cultivation resources to do so, and it would take a great deal of time to nurture another direct disciple. It would take tens of thousands of years and a large amount of cultivation resources to do so.
That was why he had waited until Cui Yongzhen was back in his hands to make his move. Even though he knew he might not succeed, he would not let Miao Yi go just like that. He tried to launch a sneak attack, but he still failed.
To him, Miao Yi was a combination of old and new grudges. His desire to kill Miao Yi was no longer limited to today. In fact, he had wanted to kill Miao Yi for a long time. After Flowing Clouds Sand's Hai Fengxuan died at Miao Yi's hands, he had wanted to make his move. However, who would have thought that Yun Aotian would suddenly intervene and launch a sneak attack on him, severely injuring him and giving him a warning. That was why he was so wary of Miao Yi and didn't make a move on him for the time being. In the end, Miao Yi came knocking on his door and kidnapped his disciple as a hostage. He couldn't stand it anymore, and that was why he launched this sneak attack.
Mu Fanjun hovered in the air as she watched Feng Beichen disappear into the distance. She didn't chase after him. She knew the fight between the two of them wouldn't end well. She cast a sidelong glance at the Invincible Eagle.
The Invincible Eagle tore off a piece of his sleeve with his claws. He loosened his claws and threw it away. He had taken the opportunity to tear it off Feng Beichen's sleeve. In the end, he was still a little bit off. He didn't manage to hurt Feng Beichen.
Fu Qing and Hong Tian, who had been knocked away, invoked their arts to calm their surging blood energy, and slowly floated back.
Miao Yi, who had already donned his golden armor in an instant, heaved a sigh of relief. He slowly lowered the spear in his hand, feeling a lingering fear.
Feng Beichen's attack was simply too sudden. Fortunately, it wasn't the Four Corners Host's first time fighting Feng Beichen, so he had a good understanding of Feng Beichen's character. He had been on high alert all this time, and that was how he managed to block the sneak attack in time. Otherwise, he might really have been in deep trouble. Just now, the Four Corners Host's first thought was to use the Single Spear Ten Kills technique and use his full cultivation. He wasn't sure if he could stop Feng Beichen.
Up in the air, Cloud Leopard also heaved a sigh of relief. Feng Beichen's attack was simply too fast. Not to mention that he couldn't block it, even if he could, he wouldn't have been able to.
"Devil brat from the Great Devil Realm, what are you doing here in the Realm Beyond Heaven?" Mu Fanjun suddenly glared at Cloud Leopard and shouted.
Cloud Leopard was speechless, but he didn't try to explain himself. The Great Devil Realm had already reminded him that the Yun family members had no right to reason with this woman. They were told not to get involved in the affairs of the older generation, and to tolerate it when it was necessary. Since they had already escorted Miao Yi to his place, he sent a voice transmission to Miao Yi, then dragged the Sea of Constellations Yao beasts away with him.
The group agreed to wait outside the Realm Beyond Heaven for Miao Yi's news.
In a flash, Mu Fanjun landed outside the Nine Heavens Palace and easily dispelled the seal Feng Beichen had placed on An Ruyu. An Ruyu's energy began to circulate, and she immediately recovered at a visible rate.
"Thank you, Master!" After bowing, An Ruyu suddenly pointed at Miao Yi.
Alas, before she could say anything, Mu Fanjun had already turned around and walked into the palace, saying, "You, come with me!"
Her words stuck in her throat, An Ruyu could only follow behind her. She even turned around to glare at Miao Yi.
Miao Yi tilted his head and pretended not to see her.
However, the others weren't necessarily willing to let him go. The remaining eight Overlords slowly walked down the stairs to settle the score with him.
Ouyang Guang, in particular, immediately yelled at Miao Yi, "Little thief! I want to see how you're going to die!"
"What does my death have to do with you? You're not the Fifth Earthly Branch's Overlord. Why do you care? "Miao Yi scoffed. He looked around at the eight Overlords surrounding him and cautiously said," What do you all want? You bunch of traitors. You didn't kill me back at the Exquisite Refinement Sect, so do you want to do it here? "
The Overlords were furious. "Who are you calling traitors?"
"I'll tell whoever's trying to harm me! Excuse me! " Miao Yi immediately squeezed his way out of the encirclement. He was certain that these people wouldn't dare to make a move here, so he didn't bother with them. After all, these people really couldn't do anything to him. Miao Yi ran up the stairs and bowed to Zong Zhen, Tang Jun, Hong Chen, and Yue Yao. "Third Master, Fourth Master, Fifth Master, Sixth Master!"
The four Overlords looked at him with different expressions. Zong Zhen and Tang Jun smiled faintly and nodded. Before Mu Fanjun gave them a verdict, the two of them weren't prepared to express their stance.
Hong Chen looked at Miao Yi, speechless. Not only did he kill four Overlords, he even dared to bully the other Overlords. Did he think he would be fine just because he was Yue Yao's big brother?
Yue Yao glared at him angrily.
Miao Yi tilted his head to avoid everyone's gaze and winked at her. He then stood to the side and waited for the matter to be dealt with. He stood there calmly, his mind wandering. He wondered if Feng Beichen would be able to save Cui Yongzhen …
In a forest not too far away from the Realm Beyond Heaven, Feng Beichen descended. He didn't go far, nor did he plan to leave. He was prepared to wait here, because he knew that the other four Sages would soon rush over once they found out that Yao Ruoxian had fallen into Mu Fanjun's hands. How could he miss out on the fun?
Next, he had to find an opportunity to kill Miao Yi. When the other four Sages came over to denounce him, there would definitely be a chance. A mere piece of trash like him had offended him time and time again. If he didn't kill him, he wouldn't be able to calm the world's mouths. He had almost lost all his dignity because of Miao Yi. How could he let Miao Yi go?!
Standing under a tree, he summoned Cui Yongzhen from his beast sack and prepared to ask her about what happened that night.
However, the results shocked him. Cui Yongzhen was bleeding from all seven of her orifices. Her mouth and nose were bubbling with blood, and her body was burning hot. Her entire body was trembling, and she couldn't speak a single word. She looked at him with a pleading gaze.
Feng Beichen quickly invoked his arts to examine the condition of her body. He noticed that something was wrong with her body. For some reason, the blood in her body was boiling like water. He immediately invoked his arts to help Cui Yongzhen suppress it. However, there seemed to be something mixed in Cui Yongzhen's body. It was actually able to dissolve his transcendence energy, giving off a feeling that it was on fire.
'What is this thing?' Feng Beichen was shocked. With his cultivation, he actually couldn't help Cui Yongzhen expel that strange thing, nor could he suppress it!
Seeing that Cui Yongzhen couldn't hold on any longer, Feng Beichen quickly took out the Ice Soul and used it to suppress Cui Yongzhen's burning body. He even stuffed one into Cui Yongzhen's mouth and invoked his arts to force it into her body. He then took out the Glorious Star immortal herb and blew out an endless stream of nebulas to save her.
In short, he used all the methods he could think of.
However, it was all useless. The Ice Soul couldn't suppress the strange thing in Cui Yongzhen's body. The miraculous effects of the Glorious Star immortal herb were also useless. The nebula's medicinal effects were instead incinerated when it entered Cui Yongzhen's body.
Finally, Cui Yongzhen's eyes widened. Her body stopped convulsing, and she stopped breathing. She couldn't be more dead. However, blood continued to bubble from her mouth and nose.
By now, how could Feng Beichen not know that someone had done something to Cui Yongzhen? However, what shocked him even more was that he had never seen such a strange poison before. He didn't even have the slightest idea of how to save her.
Looking at Cui Yongzhen's bright red corpse, Feng Beichen's expression turned as dark as a storm cloud. He clenched his fists so tightly that they trembled. 'How dare this little thief. He, the Dao Sage Feng Beichen, had personally come out, and yet he still dared to do something so underhanded. I actually fell for such a petty trick. After spending so much effort, I actually brought back a dead person …'
Inside the Nine Heavens Palace, An Ruyu stood quietly below the throne. She saw Mu Fanjun sitting on the cold jade throne with her eyes closed, not saying a word. Beneath her eyelids, the eyeballs were rolling around. She didn't know what she was thinking, but An Ruyu didn't dare to make a sound and disturb her.
After a while, Mu Fanjun seemed to have made some sort of decision. She slowly opened her phoenix eyes, and with a gaze as sharp as a blade, she stared at An Ruyu and asked, "Who was it that allowed Miao Yi to go to the Exquisite Refinement Sect?"
An Ruyu's scalp tightened. She didn't expect her Master to ask this first question. She didn't dare to meet her Master's gaze, so she lowered her head and replied, "It should be Yue Tianbo."
