"Retreat!"
The twenty or so peak Heavenly Kings were all shocked, their companions seemed to have been killed by this kind of power. In an instant, almost everyone had the same thought flash through their minds, and before the sucking could even touch their bodies, they had already started to retreat explosively.
However, as they retreated, their attacks were also launched. However, their target was no longer the cultivator who had suddenly appeared, but the rapidly moving mountain range.
Sandalwood and Tao You's goal was also to snatch the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul".
In their minds, Tan Zhong and Tao You would never allow that guy to take away the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul" just like that. Once they retreated, the two of them would definitely attack that guy. Therefore, their attacks were not to attack Tan Zhong and Tao You, but to stop the power of the sucking from spreading towards them.
"Boom —"
In a split-second, the attacks of the twenty Peak Heavenly Kings exploded in the air, transforming into an incomparably ferocious Strength Qi that rolled out in all directions layer by layer. For a time, space trembled intensely, and a terrifying ripple that could be seen with the naked eye wantonly extended between heaven and earth.
This wave of attacks had indeed isolated the spread of the sucking's power, allowing them to instantly widen the distance between the two sides to a relatively safe distance. However, the Strength Qi that was derived from the attack did not affect the mountain peaks in the slightest. When the Strength Qi touched the mountain range, it actually disappeared without a trace.
Although this situation shocked everyone, it was also within their expectations.
After avoiding the threat of the sucking, everyone's attention was focused on the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul". They were forced to retreat by Tan Zhong and Tao You, and no one stopped the man in black who suddenly appeared. Everyone could only watch helplessly as the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul" was sucked into the pebble-like object.
Upon seeing this scene, everyone's hearts were filled with anxiety and anger.
After attacking for so long, they had finally worn down the terrifyingly strong defensive power of the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul". Originally, when they were fighting for the final ownership, they could only watch as this rare treasure fell into the hands of someone else … This feeling was terrible to the extreme, and it made them want to go crazy.
However, at this time, everyone was surprised. They finally felt something extraordinary, and that was the power of primal chaos. When absorbing the "Spiritual Dao Heavenly Soul", the pebble-like object actually emitted an extremely strong sense of primal chaos.
Just what sort of treasure is it to be able to emit such an aura?
Although everyone was rather puzzled, they quickly tossed their doubts to the back of their minds as they focused on the rare treasure.
They still had hope!
How could Tan Zhong and Tao You sit back and watch the rare treasure be taken away under their noses? Moreover, in order to take away the "Spiritual Dao Heavenly Soul", the black clothed man had delayed for a short while, and was completely unable to dodge in time. Now, he had completely entered the range of the sucking.
There should be some fun to watch next.
However, in the blink of an eye, everyone was so shocked that their eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets. Their faces were filled with disbelief.
"This … this … how is this possible?"
"He's not affected at all. What's going on?"
"Where did that guy come from?"
"..."
Everyone couldn't hold it in and cried out in alarm.
In their line of sight, the body of the man in black who was enveloped by the power of the sucking was like a boulder, unmoving from beginning to end. Not to mention being sucked in, even his clothes did not flutter in the slightest. This kind of scene could be said to have completely exceeded their imagination.
If the black clothed man had used some kind of powerful method to resist the power of the sucking, they could more or less accept this fact. However, the black clothed man did not even move a single finger … Moreover, from start to finish, they did not feel any aura of power from his body.
Not long ago, the power of the sucking that was produced by the group of peaks had only devoured more than twenty Peak Heavenly Kings!
The black clothed man actually completely ignored it. What kind of terrifying strength was this?
Could it be that he was a Heavenly Emperor?
This thought uncontrollably surfaced in everyone's mind. Everyone was incomparably shocked. If that was really the case, why were they still fighting so hard? If that person was really the Heavenly Emperor, then no matter how many peak-level Heavenly Kings there were, it would still be impossible for them to obtain the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul".
As for Tan Zhong and Tao You, the Dao Artifact they had activated was indeed a huge threat to the peak of the Upper Sky Realm, but it was obviously unable to shake a Heavenly Emperor.
The current situation was proof!
However, with a quick thought, everyone quickly calmed down. To the Heavenly King, this "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul" was a rare treasure, but to the Heavenly Emperor, it was not that useful. Refining it would only increase the number of Dao Crystals, and it was not worth it to spend so much time here.
Of course, it was also possible that a certain Heavenly Emperor was seeking benefits for his descendants.
However, as far as they knew, not a single one of the eighteen Heavenly Emperors had come. As for the Heavenly Emperors of the nine heavens, it was impossible for them to come. Firstly, they were too far away, and the experts there were simply unable to deduce that the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul" would appear in the Crimson Radiance Sect. As for the next thirty-six days, it was impossible for the Heavenly Emperor to exist.
Most importantly, if that person was the Heavenly Emperor, he could completely ignore the defensive power of the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul" and directly snatch it away at the peak of the snowy mountain. There was no need for him to hide his body at all, and wait until the defensive power of the "Spiritual Dao of Heaven's Soul" was almost exhausted before he suddenly made his move.
From this, it could be seen that the black clothed man should also be a peak Heavenly King, and at most, he was just a little stronger than them. It was just that they did not know where he came from, how he was able to conceal his own aura to such an extent, and how he was able to prevent the power of the sucking from affecting him in the slightest?
Everyone's hearts were filled with doubt, but they once again felt a strong sense of hope.
However, in the blink of an eye, an even more inconceivable scene appeared in their line of sight, causing all of them to be flabbergasted and dumbstruck.
Unable to shake the black clothed man, the group of peaks did not continue to circulate, activating an even stronger power of sucking. Instead, they quickly converged and once again turned into a painting of mountains and rivers. Then, they closed up into a small scroll and floated down into the hands of the sandalwood bell that had just revealed itself.
In the next moment, Tan Zhong and Tao You's bodies shot towards the black clothed man like flowing light.
