Yi Tian's sudden appearance had directly spoiled Gu Hui's plan. Moreover, after he took out a jade pendant with a drawing, even the expressions of Mo Wen, Tian, Daoist Scarlet Sun and the rest had a 180-degree change.
As for Lu Jinyuan and Tian Chiyangzi, who were originally on the same side as Gu Hui, they seemed to be fearful and stood on opposite sides.
Yi Tian said plainly, "I've been to the Li Huo ancestral land. The picture here is the remnant image of Luo Que and Qian Lingzi three thousand years ago when I took it in the ancestral land's Purple Cloud Palace. Of course, there's also your senior Gu's appearance when he was possessed by the devil. "
Even though his voice was not loud, Yi Tian had said it after channeling his power. All the cultivators present, including the Jin Dan cultivators on the Skyscraper Cliff's Iron Sword Sect's square, felt as though his voice was ringing in their ears. They could hear it clearly.
At this moment, Gu Hui's eyes flashed red and he shouted again, "I'm doing this for the sect. You juniors have not experienced the catastrophe back then. How can you understand my feelings? Out of the one hundred and eight Yuanying cultivators, only three survived in an instant. Who can understand this pain?"
Yi Tian shook his head after hearing this. He reached out and took out a bright mirror that was about a foot in size and played with it in his hand. The Soul-Devouring Rat King saw this and blurted out, "This is the sect leader's Clear Sky Mirror. How did it end up in your hands?"
Gu Hui's eyes turned red as he stared greedily at the Clear Sky Mirror and said, "How did the sect leader's keepsake end up in your hands?" After saying this, he seemed to be fearful and did not dare to act rashly.
Yi Tian looked at the two of them in disdain and shook his head. Then, he said to Gu Hui, "The suggestion to spar just now is still valid. Also, didn't you claim to be the new Li Huo tribe leader? I won't take advantage of you. I'll hand over the Clear Sky Mirror to you and we'll spar. Let's see if you, the abandoned disciple of the Li Huo tribe, is stronger or if I, the sect leader of the Xuanyang Sect, am stronger. "
After saying this, he gently pushed the Clear Sky Mirror in his hand into Gu Hui's hands. This action immediately caused the surrounding cultivators to be stunned. They didn't expect things to turn out like this.
Gu Hui seemed to be stunned by these words. However, when he saw the Supreme Heavenly Mirror floating towards him, he realized that this was not a dream. The Sect Master's token that he had coveted for a long time had finally fallen into his hands. His face was instantly filled with ecstasy, and he no longer cared about his identity as an abandoned disciple of Li Huo.
After going crazy for a while, he restrained the smile on his face and said, "Since you've received Junior Brother Yun's true teachings, then I'd like to see what makes you, a direct disciple, different from the rest. Take this."
Then, he put away the Clear Sky Mirror and formed a seal with one hand. A golden flame turned into a fist-sized fireball and shot towards Yi Tian.
Seeing this, Yi Tian did not show the slightest trace of fear on his face. He stretched out one hand and also summoned a ball of red true flame. He drew a Fire Tai Chi pattern in front of his chest with both hands and shouted, "Condense!"
Immediately, a Spiral Fire Shield with a diameter of two chi appeared in front of Yi Tian. With a "boom" sound, the fireball and the Spiral Fire Shield collided and produced bright sparks. After a violent tremor in the air, a strong astral wind blew in a radius of one li with Yi Tian as the center.
Suddenly, a red flame appeared in the wind and swallowed the fireball. After the wind dissipated, Yi Tian's unscathed appearance was revealed. He sized up Gu Hui with a mocking look and said, "Your strength is only so-so. You're only at the peak of the second grade. It's a pity that it's not a direct disciple's cultivation technique. This golden flame should be a type of spirit flame. If you have any moves, just use them. I'll take them all. "
Having been provoked by Yi Tian's words, Gu Hui's expression turned unfriendly. With a sneer, he conjured a golden true flame and smeared it over his body. Immediately, a True Flame Armor covered his entire body, leaving only his eyes exposed.
This was the Li Fire Sect's strongest defensive move. At the same time, it could also attack. Needless to say, Gu Hui would definitely use a combination of cautious attacks and long-range harassment.
This time, Yi Tian did not follow suit. He only extended his right hand and conjured a ball of Mystic Yang True Flame at his fingertips. Then, he wrapped the true flame around his fist.
However, the flames on his fist began to spin rapidly, forming a flaming vacuum domain around him. At the same time, the surrounding space began to distort under the effects of the vacuum domain.
Lu Jinyuan, who was watching from afar, had a twisted expression on his face. He sighed and said, "Junior Brother Yi's cultivation is superb. Just this move alone has already far exceeded mine. Furthermore, in order to safeguard the unification of the Li Fire Sect, he actually nominated me to take over the position of Sect Master. I'm really ashamed to accept it."
Mo Wen Tian smiled and did not speak further. It was not appropriate for him to interfere in this matter. Instead, it was Daoist Scarlet Sun who shouted coldly, "He is completely slacking off. If he can sit, he doesn't need to stand. If someone stands up for him, he will slack off by the side. Only when he encounters something he can't avoid will he bite the bullet and take action. I know his personality best. He is a classic example of a slippery person."
When the people behind him heard this, they held back their laughter and did not dare say a word. Only Liu Piaopao had a nervous look as she shouted, "My husband is standing up for the sect. Stop being so long-winded."
As she said that, the situation on the scene suddenly changed. Gu Hui, who had transformed into a flaming armor, suddenly moved. After teleporting, he suddenly appeared on Yi Tian's right and punched out with both his fists. Two fists the size of sandbags mixed with flames transformed into a flaming dragon that attacked Yi Tian head-on.
Yi Tian did not dodge. Instead, he turned his body sideways and conjured the Flaming Vacuum Domain in his hand to meet the attack. After the two spells collided in the air once again, a sizzling sound was heard. The red True Flames of Absolute Domain had actually assimilated and devoured the golden flames on Gu Hui's hand.
The devoured golden flames fed back to Gu Hui. Under this situation, the spell in Gu Hui's hand was weakened and instantly weakened by 30%.
After the two of them exchanged blows, the air waves that were stirred up in the air spread far and wide. Even the protective barrier on the Skyscraper Cliff below was affected and emitted a buzzing sound.
Fortunately, Yi Lingfeng and a few of his senior and junior brothers tried their best to maintain the array talisman. Only then did the array stabilize.
After the two of them exchanged blows again, Gu Hui realized that his spell seemed to be completely restrained. It did not have any effect on Yi Tian at all.
After his figure flashed to the side, he took out a jet-black spiritual sword and conjured it in his hand. Then, he muttered, "Change." The flaming armor on his body seemed to have been summoned and directly attached to the spiritual sword, forming the appearance of a flaming sword.
When Yi Tian saw this, a rare look of seriousness appeared on his face. Then, he conjured the Taiyuan Sword and conjured the True Flames in his hand into the Fire Spirit Sword. After a while, he shouted sternly, "Gu Hui, are you not afraid of the backlash from refining the Thousand Souls Sword? How many Yuanying cultivators' True Souls did you use to refine this demonic weapon? How can you be the leader of a sect if you do this? "
After being reminded by Yi Tian, everyone's gaze was also fixed on the spiritual sword in Gu Hui's hand. After a while, Mo Wen Tian said angrily, "It is indeed such a sinister spiritual weapon. I'm afraid that if we submit to him, we will be sacrificed to this sword sooner or later."
Then, he turned to look at Lu Jinyuan and Hu Yiyuan and exclaimed, "Oh no, have the two of you consumed the medicinal pills that Gu Hui took out?"
When Lu Jinyuan heard this, he revealed a bleak expression and said, "Senior brother Mo, how did you know?"
Mo Wen Tian replied bitterly, "That is the Ten Thousand Poison Soul Devouring Pill. If Yuanying cultivators consume it, they will be restrained by this Thousand Souls Sword. Over time, they will be obedient to the sword's owner and will even willingly sacrifice their True Souls. To use such a sinister medicinal pill on his own people, Gu Hui has indeed become so obsessed that he cannot extricate himself. If he does not leave the Li Fire Sect, he will never have a day of peace. "
When Lu Jinyuan heard this, he immediately sighed and his eyes lost their usual luster. Instead, it was Hu Yiyuan who hurriedly asked, "Senior brother Mo, do you know if there is an antidote for this Ten Thousand Poison Soul Devouring Pill? My senior brother's life is at stake, please enlighten him."
Mo Wen Tian glanced at the Soul Devouring Rat King in the distance before shaking his head and saying, "I've only just heard of this pill. As for Gu Hui's refining process, it is inevitable that he will need the help of the Soul Devouring Rat King. One of the main ingredients, the Soul Devouring Fragrance, is something that only the Rat King has."
With that said, Lu Jinyuan finally understood that Gu Hui in front of him had long been in cahoots with the Soul Devouring Rat King. Furthermore, they were all chess pieces that had been schemed against. However, they were still useful now. When the time came, Lu Jinyuan would probably have a share of the thousands of souls in the Thousand Souls Sword.
Daoist Scarlet Sun, who was by the side, suddenly asked, "Did the two of you consume that medicinal pill?"
Lu Jinyuan only nodded bitterly. Hu Yiyuan's expression turned slightly better as he turned around and said, "Back then, when Gu Hui came to us, he lured us with benefits and made a promise. At the same time, he gave us the Ten Thousand Poison Soul Devouring Pill. Seeing that there was no hope for me to advance, I gave the pill to Senior Brother. I never expected that I would end up harming Senior Brother. "
Lu Jinyuan waved his hand and replied, "I shouldn't have listened to Junior Brother. In the early years, Junior Brother Yi and Junior Brother Hu had an agreement to give up the position of Li Fire Sect's Sect Master. I was too anxious for success, which resulted in me falling into Gu Hui's trap. Now, I can only hope that Junior Brother Yi can subdue Gu Hui and force him to hand over the antidote. "
At this moment, Lu Jinyuan's heart was filled with the desire to live. He hoped that Yi Tian could really defeat and capture Gu Hui alive.
As the few of them were conversing, the situation in the distance suddenly changed. Two fiery beams flashed as the flaming swords in Yi Tian and Gu Hui's hands transformed into afterimages that streaked across the sky.
However, Gu Hui's moves were clearly standard. It was as though he was using the power of his True Flames to forcefully attack. As for Yi Tian, the corner of his mouth twitched. His hands formed seals once again as he pointed at the Taiyuan Sword and said, "Sword Qi Threads."
Instantly, the Taiyuan Sword's main body began to disintegrate into tens of thousands of red threads of light that enveloped the Thousand Soul Sword. Following that, there was a series of crisp "ping ping ping ping" sounds. The Thousand Soul Sword plunged into the sword net and was instantly stopped in its tracks.
Furthermore, the thin sword threads were able to weaken the Thousand Soul Sword's outer layer of flames by a tiny bit.
As the saying goes, enough ants can bite an elephant to death. Under the attack of the Sword Qi Threads, the Thousand Soul Sword was like a lone boat floating in the middle of a storm. Although it did not show any signs of sinking, its defeat was obvious. It was only a matter of time before it was defeated.
Behind them, Gu Hui, who was controlling the Thousand Soul Sword, had a dark expression as he shouted, "Yi Tian, you actually cultivated in Qian Lingzi's Intrinsic Radiant Sword Technique. You are colluding with the enemy."
Yi Tian did not deny it when he heard it. He only calmly replied, "Times have changed. You are always biased against your sect. You do not know that we are now in an era where the world is united. What's wrong with everyone learning from each other's strengths? No wonder Patriarch Li Huo passed the position of Sect Leader to the Xuan Yang Old Ancestor. He probably already knew that you were not cut out for it. "
Seeing that the golden flames around the Thousand Souls Sword were almost extinguished by his sword threads, Yi Tian changed his hand seal and said, "Summon."
The sword net formed by the tens of thousands of Sword Qi Threads instantly gathered together to form the original body. However, the spiritual Qi on the Taiyuan Sword was much more condensed than before.
The Sword Qi emitted from the flaming sword spread out indiscriminately. Mo Wen Tian, who was watching from afar, suddenly said in a low voice, "Junior Yi is indeed powerful. The Sword Qi does not have the slightest bit of hostility. Instead, it contains a gentle power. However, I feel like I have seen this power somewhere before. It should be the fusion of a famous sect's Martial Technique. "
Then, he slapped his head and said, "It is the power of Buddhism. So it turns out that stopping killing by not killing can have such an effect. It seems like Gu Hui is in trouble."
Just as he finished speaking, everyone saw that Yi Tian's Taiyuan Sword had accumulated enough power. He controlled it to attack the Thousand Soul Sword directly. "Peng!" A loud and clear sound was heard. The two spiritual swords collided in the air and then burned together.
The spiritual pressure that spread out in all directions was channeled in the air. Waves that could be seen with the naked eye spread out in all directions. Mo Wen Tian and the rest saw this and quickly retreated. When the light wave swept over the nearby mountains, it immediately caused the cliffs to explode.
Fortunately, the Skyscraping Cliff's main hall was protected by a protective barrier. However, under the attack of the light wave, it actually shook violently. The faces of the few disciples who were controlling the array were flushed red. Their hands were tightly holding onto the array plate as they desperately poured their spiritual power into it to maintain the array.
However, a few of the weaker Jin Dan disciples had already started to bleed from the corners of their mouths. It looked like they were about to be devoured by the array. Only Yi Lingfeng was still bitterly holding on.
Suddenly, a figure appeared behind him. A palm gently pressed against his back and poured a stream of pure spiritual power into it, stabilizing the array.
It was Xuan Jianxin who saw that the disciples' spiritual power was not enough. On the other hand, he was also someone who knew the inside story. The person in front of him had an unusual relationship with the person above. If something happened, it would be difficult to explain.
After Mo Wen Tian scanned with his Divine Thought, a comforted look appeared on his face. Then, he shouted, "Follow me and surround him. No matter what, we can't let him go today."
Then, he waved his hand and handed a few sword talismans to the Yuanying cultivators behind him. Then, he said, "Let's spread out and activate the sword talismans to surround the traitorous disciple."
At this time, Mo Wen Tian no longer cared about their relationship as fellow disciples. He picked up the sword talisman and poured his spiritual power into it to activate it. The surrounding people also hurriedly followed suit. After they separated, they found their positions within a hundred mile radius and activated the sword talismans.
Suddenly, dozens of sword lights flashed in the air and formed a huge sword net formation, trapping the few people inside.
After Gu Hui's repeated failures and being exposed, his face was naturally filled with anger. In a blink of an eye, he saw Mo Wen Tian and company trying to stop him. Lu Jinyuan also turned against him. He angrily said, "All of you are rebelling. Fine, I'll let you see the power of the Li Fire Sect's cornerstone treasure, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror."
After saying that, he extended his hand and activated the Supreme Heavenly Mirror. Then, he used his Life Flame to activate it and shot a golden beam at Yi Tian.
