Weng!
While Xue Qiu was shouting furiously, the space in front of him suddenly shook, and the Golden Crow Sage and the others returned.
Previously, when the passageway was shattered, they were swept to another location by the spatial turbulence. It took them three breaths before they could return.
The Golden Crow Sage's lips twitched. "Junior, where's your arm?"
What happened?
How did it disappear in such a short period of time?
"It's Su Yin. He was hiding here to ambush me …" Xue Qianqiu gritted his teeth.
The Golden Crow Saint raised his eyebrows and spread out his Divine Sense, covering an area with a radius of ten thousand miles like mercury. Everything was reflected in his mind, from big sailing ships to small ants moving houses.
"He's not here …"
Soon, he shook his head.
There was no trace of Su Yin's aura within ten thousand li. In other words, the young man was at least ten thousand li away.
"Impossible! He just severed my arm! How could he have escaped so quickly?" Xue Qianqiu was on the verge of going insane.
"Everyone, look around!"
The Golden Crow Sage shook his head. A tree branch appeared in front of him. "This is the branch of the Fusang Ancient Tree. Let's use it to block him for a moment!"
Even though the tree branch was far inferior to the Xiezhi Horn, Xue Qianqiu had no choice but to assimilate it into his body.
"He's not here!"
"I can't find him here either. That lad seems to have disappeared …"
…
Not too long later, the group from the celestial palace returned with frowns on their faces.
"That fellow must have used some kind of secret art to escape. Let's head to the Five Elemental Lands first and persuade Rushou and the others. Once we succeed, we can wait for him to appear!"
The Golden Crow Sage said.
"Un!"
The crowd nodded.
This was the best solution they could come up with.
"Qianqiu, you'll enter the spatial passageway first!"
The Golden Crow Sage tore open the spatial passageway and allowed his junior to enter first. Seeing that nothing unexpected happened, the crowd heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly headed toward the Five Elemental Lands.
Not too long after they left, the spatial passageway jolted, and Su Yin appeared.
He had used the concealment ability of the Human Emperor Tree to conceal his aura and strength. Furthermore, he had hidden himself in the soil below.
Yet, even the Golden Crow Sage, who had reached the Realm of Laws, failed to notice him.
Thinking about it, even the heavens were unable to detect the aura of the Human Emperor Tree. As a Realm of Laws cultivators were powerful, they were still a long way from the heavens.
"There's no need to rush …"
Su Yin knew that it was impossible for him to outrun the Golden Crow Sage with his current speed. After entering the Five Elements Sacred Land, he could not be bothered to chase after the Golden Crow Sage. Instead, he tore through space and leaped several times. Only when he was more than a hundred thousand li away from the Cangqiong Sacred Land did he heave a sigh of relief.
Although the Cangqiong Saint rarely used his consciousness to explore the Immortal World, it was still better to be careful.
After finding an uninhabited mountain range, Su Yin dug out a cave and entered it. After setting up a seal around it, Su Yin flicked his wrist, and the Xiezhi horn that he had just snatched appeared before him.
Regardless of the decision Rushou and company made, he needed sufficient strength to convince them.
With a jolt of his mind, Zhang Xuan infused his Sword Intent into it and swiftly destroyed the will that Xue Qianqiu had left behind.
After snatching this fellow's treasures many times, Zhang Xuan was already familiar with how this fellow refined his treasures and where his will remained. Thus, killing them one by one was extremely easy.
"Refine!"
Grasping the hardest part of this ancient divine beast, Su Yin immersed himself in it.
In an instant, Zhang Xuan's mind was in a trance. It was as if he had entered a sinister and terrifying prison.
Two huge divine beasts were locked inside. Their fur had fallen off, and they looked haggard. With one look, one could tell that they had been severely punished. It was already good enough that they were still breathing.
One of them looked like a huge osprey. It had a white head, a red mouth, and tiger-like claws. Its aura was chaotic, and its eyes were blood-red. It gave off a murderous aura.
The other one had a human head and a dragon body. Its scales had fallen off, and its skin was cracked. It looked like it had not drunk water for many days.
"I'm a divine beast in the Rule Realm. I controlled the war and contributed greatly to the Dragon Emperor's ascension. You can't imprison us!"
"I'm the Dragon Emperor's descendant, and I have the Dragon Race's bloodline in me. Xiezhi, you're committing treason by locking me up!"
As if sensing that someone had entered, two wills rushed over.
"Gu, you started the war and killed the innocent. You violated the iron law. You'll be imprisoned for fifty thousand years!"
"Qin, you drank the water of the Yellow River, causing a drought that killed countless people. You'll be imprisoned for a hundred thousand years!"
A loud voice rang out. Every word that was spoken carried with it a special power of rules. Every word was as heavy as a mountain, causing the air to emit sonic booms as if a hurricane was sweeping through.
"Without me, how can the Dragon Emperor sit on the throne?"
"I'm thirsty. Can't I drink water?"
The two divine beasts continued to roar.
"Princes are punished the same as commoners. You might be experts, but you don't have any special privileges. You've violated the law, and you can't be imprisoned. How can you be fair?"
Along with the voice, a square mirror above the cell shone over, reflecting the silhouettes of the two divine beasts, as well as the wrongdoings they had committed.
Countless living beings had lost their lives because of their actions.
"They're just a bunch of ants. So what if they die? How can their lives be compared to ours?"
"You drowned a bunch of ants with your pee. Are you going to admit your mistakes and commit suicide?"
…
The two divine beasts were even more furious.
"Drowning ants? Of course, I won't commit suicide. However, you've committed crimes of your own accord. You'll be punished severely! If you continue to live, you'll only bring harm to more people … "
The heavy voice continued to sound, and it seemed to strike at one's soul.
"This is a mythological beast that the Dragon Monarch dealt with in the Ancient Era, and its will was left in the rules …"
Su Yin widened his eyes in realization.
He wasn't really in the cell. Instead, he was in the Xiezhi's Horn and the power of the Rule.
If he wanted to tame the Xiezhi's Horn, he had to be able to withstand it. If he couldn't withstand the clash of wills, he would die.
"In the Xiezhi's heart, as long as one is wrong, even if one is a Rule realm expert or a member of the royal bloodline, he will still be punished severely. Only by being fair and just can one live in peace!"
"But … what is fairness? What is fairness? "
Ignoring the conflicting thoughts, Su Yin began to ponder.
Humans wouldn't be punished for eating plants, but plants eating humans was a sin. The so-called fairness might not necessarily be true.
Take the Qianyuan Continent for example. There were many experts of the Giant Demon Tribe who didn't fear death and risked their lives to ambush humans. Could one say that they were wrong?
Not necessarily!
"Fairness isn't about who is right and who is wrong. It's about one's heart!"
A thought flashed through Zhang Xuan's mind.
If one's heart was righteous, everything would be righteous.
If one's heart was righteous, everything would be righteous.
There was no absolute right or wrong in the world. The sinking of a ship was a disaster to the crew, but to the seafood in the pond, it was a miracle.
The 'Gu' and 'Qin' before him had violated the rules of the Ancient Beast Court, disregarding the law. Thus, killing them was a form of justice!
If it was during a war, no matter how many they killed, it would still be a meritorious deed.
In an instant, Su Yin gained a deeper understanding of fairness. His comprehension of the Human Emperor's Path became purer, and his understanding of 'courage, benevolence, wisdom, and magnanimity' deepened.
Since he was called the Human Emperor, he had to be a human.
With this in mind, Zhang Xuan felt that the fusion of the nineteen Laws in his body had become smoother. Grabbing the Xiezhi's Horn tightly, he infused the power of the Human Emperor into it.
Boom!
The Xiezhi's Horn was reduced to dust, and the power of laws surged into Zhang Xuan's dantian to nourish his muscles and meridians.
Previously, his blood had flowed through his meridians like a small stream, producing a rustling sound. However, at this moment, it had become a raging river, and it felt as if there was no end to it.
Sage 2-dan!
Sage 3-dan!
…
Previously, he had consumed the Solar Trueflame Pill to raise his physical body to the level of a second-rank Sage. Even though his physical body had improved significantly after that, and he had tempered it with lightning, his true strength was still at second-rank pinnacle.
After comprehending the true meaning of 'fairness', the Xiezhi's Horn fused into his body and broke through his bottleneck. His physical body improved at a rate visible to the naked eye, and in less than ten breaths, he had already reached sixth-rank pinnacle.
In other words, his physical body was already comparable to a grade-6 pinnacle artifact!
If he used his full strength, he could even shatter the Origin Energy Pearl!
Hu!
Su Yin opened his eyes once more and clenched his fists tightly.
His Celestial Energy had not increased, which meant that he was still a grade-5 pinnacle Sage. However, his physical body had grown stronger, and his movements were filled with strength.
With just his physical body, even if he did not use the Human Emperor Swordsmanship, he would be able to destroy a grade-6 pinnacle Sage with a single punch!
This was the true body of a divine beast!
In other words, his physical body was already on par with the Ancient Divine Beast, Xiezhi.
"It seems like Xue Qianqiu has yet to comprehend the true meaning of 'fairness'. He can only forge it into an arm instead of fusing it with his body …"
If Xue Qianqiu had fully comprehended the rules of 'fairness', the Xiezhi's Horn would have fused perfectly with him. Putting aside the fact that the True Dragon Sword would not be able to sever it, even if it could, it would not be able to forge it and advance his cultivation.
"This can be considered as my strongest trump card!"
After concealing the strength of his physical body, it was no different from before.
The strength of his physical body was not something that experts could see through with a single glance. Since they could not see through it, he could use it as a trump card. The next time he met Xue Qianqiu, he would be able to destroy the latter with a single punch.
Of course, this was just an example. He could not kill the other party. He still needed the other party's help to search for more treasures!
At the very least, he had no idea where the Ancient Beast Hall was. Only the other party would be able to find it.
Under the heat of the Golden Crow Lifebound Flame, the Origin Energy Pearl had become more compatible with one another. However, it would still take a long time for it to fully recover.
It seemed that this Dharma treasure could not be used for the time being.
"When I go to the Five Elements Holy Land, they will test me. I will also test them. If I cannot withstand the pressure of the Golden Crow Sage and submit to the Firmament lineage, the so-called alliance will be meaningless!"
Su Yin's eyes flashed as he walked out of the cave.
He had deliberately returned later than the Golden Crow Sage and the others. He had his own plans.
The Five Elements Holy Land was indeed a target that he could rope in. However, if the alliance could not withstand the threat, the losses he would suffer would be even greater!
Therefore, he went to obtain the Golden Crow Lifebound Flame to prove his strength. As for sending the Golden Crow Sage to cause trouble, it was to make the other party submit.
He tore through space and quickly advanced. Ten minutes later, the Ruoshui River appeared in front of him.
He silently walked out of the spatial passageway and disappeared in a flash, as if he had never appeared.
…
Five Elements Holy Land, Metal Origin Palace.
Sage Rushou sat at the centermost seat. He tapped his fingers on the table, deep in thought.
"Do you think this kid can succeed?"
After some time, Water Sage Gonggong's voice broke the silence.
Zhurong shook his head. "Putting aside the Golden Crow Sage's strength, the Lifebound Flame is incomparably hot and can burn the void. Even the Masters of the Laws can't get close to it … The chances of success are close to zero!"
It was not that he did not trust the other party, but it was too difficult.
As the spirit of the Laws of Fire, he had been burned by the other party's Lifebound Flame. It would be difficult for him to recover in ten thousand years. The young man was only a peak grade-5 … The difference was too great.
"I also think that the chances are low!" Goumang nodded.
Before everyone could finish their thoughts, Rushou seemed to have noticed something. His eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly. "It seems that you all guessed wrong. He succeeded!"
Zhurong and the others glanced at Zhang Xuan doubtfully. However, before they could ask any questions, a loud voice echoed in the air.
"Golden Crow Sage of the Firmament Holy Land has brought Junior Brothers Tian Gong and Xue Qianqiu, Junior Sisters Chan Gui and Yu Luo to pay a visit to the Five Elements Holy Land!"
Zhurong and the others narrowed their eyes. They extended their consciousness and looked outside. As expected, they saw the Golden Crow Sage and the others hovering above the Ruoshui River.
"Alright, Su Yin has completed the first half of the match. It's our turn in the second half!" With a faint smile, Rushou flew out.
"First half?" Gonggong was confused.
"We sent Su Yin to steal the Lifebound Flame as a test for him. The Golden Crow Sage brought his junior brothers and sisters here as a test for us. If we can't even stop him, what right do we have to cooperate with others?"
Rushou said indifferently.
As an ancient sage who had lived for tens of thousands of years, he could see Su Yin's goal clearly.
Gonggong and the others came to a realization and followed closely behind. A moment later, they arrived above the river.
"Greetings, Five Elements Sage …" The Golden Crow Sage bowed and cupped his fists.
"As a Master of the Laws, there's no need to be so courteous!"
Rushou waved his hand and looked over with bright eyes. "Just state your intentions. There's no need to waste time!"
"Since Sage Rushou is so straightforward, please!" The Golden Crow Sage took a step forward. "No matter what it is, let's fight first."
"That's right!"
With a scoff, Rushou did not waste his breath as he punched out.
Since they were not on good terms and everyone was busy, they did not have the time to talk nonsense. In the end, strength spoke louder than words.
Countless metal auras gathered from all directions. The Ruoshui River seemed to have turned into a river of water. Even steel floated and the air became heavy.
The Golden Sage's ultimate move … Metal Elemental Space!
This space contained endless metal elemental energy. Once trapped, it was equivalent to falling into a steel swamp. It would be difficult to escape.
Su Yin, who was hiding in the distance, only needed a glance to know that it would be difficult for him to resist this punch even though his cultivation had skyrocketed.
"You've indeed improved compared to ten thousand years ago. Unfortunately, that's not enough!"
With a shout, the Golden Crow Sage spread his five fingers. Five stars floated out and scorching flames formed a red sea in the air.
The metal elemental space immediately cracked when it came into contact with the flames.
Southern fire subdued metal!
The Golden Crow held up the sun and was skilled in the Dao of Fire. Now that it attacked with all its might, the Golden Crow Sage's attack immediately showed signs of melting.
"Since he dares to fight you, he must have been prepared!"
Seeing that the metal elemental space could not withstand the pressure and would collapse at any time, Rushou did not panic and clenched his fist.
Whoosh!
The space immediately condensed and formed a huge hammer.
It weighed more than five hundred thousand kilograms and came crashing down.
There were no moves, no speed, only an unavoidable momentum. Before it could even reach Zhang Xuan, space had already been compressed and folded together, and even time seemed to have stopped.
The Golden Crow Sage's eyes turned solemn.
In the past, Rushou used the sharpness of the metal element to attack. There was nothing he could not break. Now, he abandoned this advantage and relied on brute force to crush his opponent. It looked clumsy, but in fact, it was even more difficult to resist.
He reached out with one hand and made a light stroke.
A Great Dao appeared. The sun rose and set. Spring passed and autumn came. All kinds of rules were strictly followed and would never change.
In the face of Rushou's all-out attack, he did not dare to be arrogant and used his cultivation as a Master of the Laws.
As soon as the Great Dao appeared, the space above the Ruoshui River seemed to have turned into another world. The laws of space were different from before, and it felt like the laws were about to be destroyed. The energy in his body could go out of control at any moment.
Xue Qianqiu's face paled, and he took several steps back.
He had improved by leaps and bounds recently, and he thought that he was already on par with his First Senior Brother. Only now did he realize that they could not be mentioned in the same breath.
He was not the only one. Su Yin's eyes narrowed, and he clenched his fists tightly.
Having seen a half-step Master of the Laws, he thought that the so-called Master of the Laws would only be slightly stronger at most. Now, he realized that he had been too naive.
Masters of the Laws formed a special domain. Entering it was equivalent to entering the other party's world. Without the power to break it, it did not matter how many people there were or how exquisite their moves were.
It was like a fish in the deep sea. No matter how big or strong it was, could it tear the water apart?
It was clearly impossible!
However, the fact that Sage Rushou was able to execute the Metal Elemental Space meant that he was not too far away from reaching the Master of the Laws.
With such thoughts in mind, Sage Rushou retaliated decisively. Without the slightest hesitation, he flicked his finger, and the hammer in the air exploded.
Si la!
The incomparably sharp metal burst forth, tearing a hole in the Domain that the Golden Crow Sage had just set up. With a roar, Sage Rushou grasped at the air.
Boom!
The golden mountain in the Saint Land immediately rose into the air, morphing into a massive comet that came crashing down on the Golden Crow Sage.
The mountain was made entirely out of metal, so its weight was probably more than a trillion tons. As it came crashing down, even time seemed to have warped. The closer it got to the mountain, the slower it became, and the further it got away, the faster it flowed.
The objects that were shrouded by the mountain seemed to have fallen into clear water, distorting and refracting. The ten-thousand-meter-tall mountain shrunk to a height of several hundred meters, and the hundred-meter-tall tree shrunk to a height of several meters.
"Shorter than a foot … That's already infinitely close to reaching the Master of Laws …" Xue Qianqiu narrowed his eyes.
Having comprehended a branch of the Great Path of Time, Xue Qianqiu had a deep understanding of time. Once time slowed down, objects would shrink, and when time came to a standstill, no matter how large an object was, it would shrink into a nonexistent singularity that was invisible to the naked eye and Spiritual Perception.
He had only just grasped the rudiments of the Great Path of Time, and he was still a long way from mastering it. Yet, the Golden Crow Sage was actually able to execute a portion of its effects with the help of the golden mountain.
That was too frightening!
With his cultivation, he could be considered a quasi Master of Laws. He was much stronger than Senior Chan Gui, who was a half-step Master of Laws.
"I wonder if Senior Chan Gui will be able to withstand it …"
Xue Qianqiu asked worriedly.
"With the help of my main body, I've already come into contact with the Master of Laws. However, I'm still a long way from reaching the level of a true Master of Laws. I'll show you what the Heavenly Path is!"
The Golden Crow Sage morphed into his true form, a massive three-legged black bird that spanned several hundred li long.
Sword Saint, Pill Saint, Medicine Saint … This was a Great Dao. Anyone who comprehended it could become a Saint. The Yellow Spring Great Dao, the Golden Crow Saint comprehended the laws, the Firmament Great Dao … It was not a single Great Dao.
Just like a hemp rope, it could be twisted into a single strand or split apart.
However, no matter how split it was, there would always be a limit to how many Great Paths there could be.
To be able to split one's Great Path of Time meant that one had reached the level of a Master of Laws!
Such an expert could split a Great Path into many different Great Paths or merge many Great Paths into a single Great Path. Above that was the Heavenly Path!
The Heavenly Path was the sum of all Great Paths in the world!
The Great Path gave birth to one, one gave birth to two, two gave birth to three, and three gave birth to all things … The Great Path referred to the Heavenly Path.
Thus, to put it in layman's terms, one would become a Saint after comprehending a single Great Path. One would become a Master of Laws after comprehending the Heavenly Path.
Be it the thirty-six Prime Sages, the Firmament Great Path, or the Yellow Springs Great Path, they all had this as their goal.
With a flap of its wings, several Great Paths descended. The area above the Ruoshui River seemed to have turned into chaos. Seven-colored light flowed, forming strange patterns. Countless fishes and prawns floated to the surface with a single glance and fainted.
When the golden mountain entered the chaos, it was like a lone boat that had fallen into a whirlpool. It swayed uncontrollably and could be blown away at any moment.
Pu!
Rushou spat out a mouthful of blood.
Although he was very strong, he was still lacking compared to a true Master of Laws.
"Boss!"
Water Sage Gonggong, Earth Sage Houtu, Fire Sage Zhurong, and Wood Sage Goumang rushed over at the same time.
With a violent rumble, the Five Elemental Mountains gathered together in a pentagonal arrangement. The power of mutual reinforcement and suppression stirred up the universe.
Whoosh!
The Five Elemental Mountains immediately pinned the Five Elemental Mountains in place. They were like flies that had been swatted on a wall, trapped in a rat trap, unable to move.
The Five Elemental Mountains fixed the Five Elemental Mountains!
"This …"
Su Yin's body trembled. He finally understood why Yang Xuan held the Five Elemental Sage in such high regard. He even said that he could fight Firmament!
So that's how it is!
Everything was made up of the Five Elemental Mountains. With the Five Elemental Mountains frozen, the so-called domain became empty words. Ordinary Master of Laws experts really couldn't do anything against it.
Boom!
The domain was suppressed by the Five Elemental Mountains and collapsed. The Golden Crow Sage's face paled as he spat out blood.
"I'm here to spar alone, but Sage Jin wants the other four to work together. Isn't that against the rules?"
The Golden Crow Sage took a few steps back and suppressed the power that could collapse at any moment. He narrowed his eyes.
"The five of us brothers have always advanced and retreated together. I don't care if you're alone or more. We'll take it together!"
"Aren't there five of you as well? Let's attack together. The five of us can … "
Gonggong and Zhurong shouted at the same time.
The Golden Crow Sage frowned and turned to look behind him.
Chan Gui, Tian Gong, Yu Luo, Xue Qianqiu, and himself were indeed five.
"Do you want to try?" Rushou smiled.
The Golden Crow Sage shook his head in the end.
Chan Gui and the others weren't weak either, but their teamwork wouldn't be as good as the Five Elemental Saints. If they really fought, they would lose.
"If my Natal Flame was still here, it wouldn't be that easy for the five of you to win even if you worked together …"
The Golden Crow Sage sighed.
His Natal Flame could burn the world. If it wasn't stolen, the Five Elemental Mountains that were frozen would have been burned away.
Without a change in expression, Rushou exchanged looks with the other four. Their eyes were filled with astonishment.
Although they had their guesses, they were a hundred percent certain after the other party confirmed it.
The five of them had to work together to defeat that fellow, but the young man had easily stolen his Natal Flame … How did he do it?
It was too terrifying!
"Alright, let's get down to business!"
The Golden Crow Sage put his hands behind his back and looked at them with bright eyes. "Rushou, Gonggong, Houtu, Goumang, and Zhurong, even if you brought the Five Elemental Mountains with you, you're still no match for me. Am I right?"
"Yes!"
The five of them nodded.
They didn't want to admit it, but they knew that it was the truth.
The Golden Crow Sage had reached the Precepts realm, and he had far surpassed them from ten thousand years ago.
"I'm not my teacher, so I don't have to worry about my reputation. If I really want to make a move on you, I can easily defeat you one by one.
The Golden Crow Sage said, "If that's the case, will the five of you be able to withstand it?"
Rushou frowned.
He was the strongest of the Five Elemental Saints, but he wasn't a match for the Golden Crow Sage in a one-on-one fight. If the others were to fall behind, there was a high chance that they would be killed.
"My request is simple. I hope that you can work together with my teacher. Even if you can't, you can remain neutral! As long as you don't have anything to do with the 36 Ancient Sages, we'll be fine. Otherwise, I don't mind guarding the Ruoshui Riverbank for ten thousand years! I'll make a move on anyone from the Five Elemental Mountains. "
The Golden Crow Sage's eyes gleamed.
"Are you threatening us?"
Rushou narrowed his eyes. Gonggong and the others also clenched their fists tightly.
If they allowed the Golden Crow Sage to guard them for ten thousand years, the dignity of the Five Elemental Lands would be lost.
However, there was nothing they could do in the face of such a threat. The five of them might be able to defeat the Golden Crow Sage, but if the Golden Crow Sage really wanted to escape, they wouldn't be able to catch up to him.
Thus, they weren't afraid of someone like Cang Qiong. What they were afraid of was someone who had reached the Precepts realm.
The Golden Crow Sage chuckled. "You can take it as a threat or a warning. It's up to you! Now, make your stand clear! If you agree to it, you'll sever all ties with Su Yin and hand him over to me. Otherwise, I'll be guarding this place from today onward. "
"You're good …"
Rushou gritted his teeth.
The Five Elemental Saints, a powerful figure who had lived since the Primordial Era, were actually threatened by the Golden Crow Sage.
"I'll give you an hour to make your choice. Don't exhaust my patience …" the Golden Crow Sage said with a smile.
This was the Precepts realm!
He could crush anyone who refused to submit to him. Even veteran Sages were useless against him.
"This is how a man should behave …"
Seeing this sight, Xue Qianqiu couldn't help but sigh in awe.
As expected of his senior. He was always on the losing end, but as soon as he made a move, the Five Elemental Saint would be rendered speechless.
Just as Xue Qianqiu was feeling agitated, a chuckle suddenly sounded.
"Hahaha, Golden Crow Sage, you sure are bold. However, if you're so formidable, why did I sweep clean your nest and even take away your Natal Flame?"
Following which, a figure suddenly appeared and flew over.
"Su Yin …"
Veins popped out on Xue Qianqiu's forehead.
The person who had appeared was no other than Su Yin.
He had already seen the attitude of the Five Elemental Saint. If he didn't appear now, it would be impossible for him to win the other party over.
As for whether it would be dangerous or not … Everything required risk. If he didn't even dare to take this risk, his words of standing against Cang Qiong would be nothing more than empty words.
"You sure are gutsy to appear before me …"
Not expecting Zhang Xuan to appear at this moment, the Golden Crow Sage was stunned.
"What's there to be afraid of?"
Su Yin chuckled as he walked up to Rushou and the others. "Paying respects to the Five Elemental Saints. It's fortunate that I didn't disappoint you and brought you the Undying Flame …"
With the five of them around, even if the Golden Crow Sage wanted to make a move, he wouldn't be able to kill Zhang Xuan in a single blow.
As long as he couldn't kill Zhang Xuan in a single blow, he was confident that he would be able to escape successfully.
Hu!
Right after saying those words, the Origin Energy Orb appeared. A pitch-black flame was burning on a tree, emanating a destructive might.
After revealing the Origin Energy Orb for a brief moment, Zhang Xuan returned it back to his glabella.
The Origin Energy Orb was the Golden Crow Sage's Natal Flame. Even though it was trapped, it had yet to be tamed. If the Golden Crow Sage had a way to snatch it away, they would really be in deep trouble.
"Not bad …" Rushou nodded in satisfaction.
The Golden Crow Sage's appearance meant that he was on the same side as them.
In other words, no matter what, they had to fight the Golden Crow Sage to the very end. If they were to submit, the Five Elemental Saint would cease to exist.
"Golden Crow Sage, you're too courteous!"
Su Yin clasped his fist.
Rushou raised his head. He was just about to speak of his choice to the Golden Crow Sage when he suddenly heard a voice transmission.
"Sage Jin, I beseech you to join forces with the other four to make a move on the Golden Crow Sage!"
"Make a move on the Golden Crow Sage?"
Sage Rushou was stunned.
If they were to make a move on the Golden Crow Sage now, would they … fight to the death? But if the Golden Crow Sage couldn't win, he would flee! They were carrying the sacred mountain, so they couldn't possibly move too quickly.
If they couldn't catch up to the Golden Crow Sage, everything would be for naught.
