When Ying Chong saw the direction of Zhang Yu's escape light, he was startled at first, then his expression changed slightly. He also guessed Zhang Yu's real intention.
Originally, there was a lot of golden sand blocking the direction of the fierce light, but under Zhang Yu's movement back and forth, it was moved to other places, causing it to become much thinner. For Zhang Yu, who had the protection of the Clear Sky Qi, it was useless, and he could easily pass through.
In his heart, he naturally did not want to let Zhang Yu escape so easily, but he did not continue to use the Cymbidium Lucidum to block it like before. Just as Zhang Yu had expected, he had expended quite a bit of his magic power in the process of shifting and sealing.
He also thought of what Zhang Yu thought. He was afraid that if he forcefully set up a barrier, it would cause a hole in his defense, and Zhang Yu would come back to kill him. Therefore, he was very calm and did not make a move again.
Zhang Yu kept his sword ready as he flew. If Ying Chong revealed a flaw, then he would take advantage of it to attack the enemy. However, he saw that Ying Chong did not move for a long time, and knew that he was prepared.
However, this was also good. At this moment, there was no obstruction in front of him, and he could rush to the fierce light at a faster speed. When he got there, Ying Chong would not be able to maintain the advantage like before.
At this moment, the more he went forward, the more he felt the pressure on his body weaken, but the fierce light in front of him became more and more intense. This also forced him to use more Clear Sky Qi to block it.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly felt his body become lighter. When he looked around, he saw that there was no longer any golden sand around him. He understood that he had broken free from the protection of the barrier.
But at the same time, the scorching light that almost melted everything also poured onto his body without any cover. The Clear Sky Qi around him was constantly being consumed as if it was evaporating.
He knew that he had to find out where Shangchen was as soon as possible. Therefore, he made up his mind not only to protect himself, but also to prevent the pressure that was supposed to be shouldered by him from falling on others.
Ying Chong also followed at this moment, but he stopped at the edge of the golden sand. Feeling the scorching light in front of him, his expression became incomparably solemn.
After arriving here, if he were to continue moving forward, then the slightest carelessness would cause him to be affected by the blazing light. The Dao Guarding Treasures in his possession weren't as effective as the Sky of Clarity.
Moreover, under the blazing light that could burn the void, his gaze could not reach far. He did not know where Zhang Yu had landed at this moment.
If that was the case, it seemed unlikely that Zhang Yu would be able to find Shangchen under such strong Qi.
He pondered for a moment and decided that he shouldn't have such a lucky thought. Zhang Yu wouldn't have rushed here for no reason. Maybe he had a way to see the main heaven, so he had to stop him.
Thinking of this, he was about to step out, but at this moment, his heart suddenly moved, and he raised his head to look somewhere.
In Shangchen, in the Rainbow Hall, Gu Yangzi stood up from his seat and said, "The vitality attached to Huanyang's strong Qi has been moved outside. My two friends, quickly cut off the branches of heaven."
Tian Hong and Lingdu both responded. Immediately, they waved their sleeves toward the void and released a green light, which fell on the huge branch. The branch immediately broke, and the rear part quickly retreated into the depths of the void. The section that was cut off collapsed into countless pieces after a few breaths, and then disappeared in the blazing light.
Gu Yangzi had been silently sensing, and after confirming that there was nothing left of the broken branch, he nodded and said, "The branch has been broken, so we don't have to worry about the location of Shangchen in the short term. Friend Lingdu, you can call Friend Ying Chong back."
Lingdu Daoist agreed. He stretched out a finger, and the branch under his feet stretched out, opening up a space. Then, he transmitted his thoughts, "Friend Ying Chong, the branch has been cut off. You don't have to stay outside anymore, you can return."
Ying Chong had already noticed the change just now. Now that he heard the confirmation, he was relieved. However, he thought for a moment and said, "Venerable One, Zhang Yu is here now. If Venerable One is willing to help …"
Lingdu Daoist immediately rejected, "In the face of the big picture, one person's life is not important. Besides, we don't have the time to do this. Friend Ying, come back and take charge of the situation first. Although we've dealt with it this time, there are still things that you need to take charge of later. "
Although the branch had been cut off, it was only because they were afraid of the fierce light. They still needed to seize the opportunity to find the location of Huanyang school again. If they delayed for too long, they might miss this opportunity. How could he leave at this time?
Ying Chong sighed softly. He could only roll up his sleeves and step into the space. As the space closed, he also left this place and returned to Shangchen.
When Zhang Yu saw that Ying Chong did not come to disturb him, he seized the opportunity to observe with his eye seal. However, after observing for a while, he realized that the fierce energy had separated from the main branch, and the main branch had hidden back into the void. In just a few breaths, all the qi light had disappeared.
His eyes flickered slightly. When he looked back, he saw that Ying Chong was no longer there. The golden sand that had originally covered the void was also slowly disappearing. Obviously, they had been taken back.
At this time, a message came from Xuntian Dao Zhang. When he looked at it, he heard Dai Gonghan say, "Zhang Shouzheng, you and your fellow Daoists can come back now."
Zhang Yu's heart trembled slightly. He could hear that Dai Gonghan's voice did not sound disappointed or regretful. He thought for a moment, then called out the Star Boat, stepped into it, and turned back.
On the other side, Daoist Zhengqing stood there. He looked at the void that had calmed down for a while, then turned into a beam of clear light and returned to the flying boat that he had been on before.
When Wei Yi saw him return, he immediately came up and said, "Senior Martial Brother, Xuanting sent an order for us to return."
Daoist Zhengqing nodded and said, "Then let's go back."
Wei Yi nodded and said, "Senior Martial Brother, what's the situation now? Why did he suddenly ask us to retreat? But is the matter not resolved? "
Daoist Zhengqing thought for a while and said, "It's hard to say. But judging from the situation, Xuanting might have other considerations."
At this moment, Lin Huaiying, Dai Gonghan, and Zhangsun Qian were standing on top of the spiritual altar in the sea of clouds. They seemed to be waiting for something.
Not long after, the sea of clouds surged and separated into two sides. A beam of light shone on the spiritual altar. After the light shone down, Chen Tingzhi walked out from it.
The three of them bowed to him. Lin Tingzhi said, "Chen Tingzhi, thank you for your trouble."
Chen Tingzhi bowed back and said in a low voice, "I'm just following the plan."
In reality, Xuanting didn't just send out the people on the surface this time. Just as Ying Chong was obstructing Zhengqing and Zhang Yu, Chen Tingzhi rushed into the layer of golden sand barrier from the other side.
As a court administrator, he had the help of the official seal. In addition, his cultivation level was also very high. When he used the Qi of Clear Sky, he was more skilled than Zhengqing and Zhang Yu. In addition, most of the golden sand was held back by Zhang Yu, Zhengqing, and Yu Xuanzun. Therefore, not only did he avoid the layer of barrier, but he also approached the intense Qi before Zhang Yu.
At that time, Zhong Weiwu, Chong Zhao, and the others covered for him. No one in Shangchen could calculate and counteract, so this move was not sensed by anyone.
According to Xuanting's original plan, as long as he got close to the intense Qi of Clear Sky, he would be able to find Shangchen's main sky along the main branch.
Unfortunately, just as he was about to find Shangchen's whereabouts, Shangchen was still one step faster and cut off the branch before him.
However, he didn't return empty-handed because of this. Xuanting had already predicted that he might encounter a variable, so he had a backup plan, which was to search for the vitality left behind by the green branch.
When the intense Qi appeared, Xuanting predicted that if Shangchen wanted to cut off the branch, he would need to move the vitality outside. However, the intense Qi of Clear Sky could not burn away the vitality in a short period of time. Shangchen could not deal with the intense Qi, but Tianxia could. He only needed to release the Qi of Clear Sky to contain all of it.
When Gu Yangzi saw that the intense Qi had disappeared, he thought that it had disappeared on its own. In fact, a portion of it had been collected by Chen Tingzhi.
Chen Tingzhi greeted the three of them and walked to the pool in the middle of the altar. He looked at the grayish-white withered branch under the pool. The Qi of Clear Sky spread out from his body, and a burning Qi appeared above it. At the same time, there was a gush of green vitality swaying there.
However, when he reached here, the Qi of Clear Sky could be said to be endless. With just a pressure, the intense Qi was easily suppressed. Only the green Qi was left behind.
At this moment, the strands of green Qi sank down and condensed into drops of green dew. This time, it was not just one or two drops like last time. Instead, it dripped down like rain.
After falling into the pool, the grayish-white branch changed into a green color at an even faster speed than last time. The green color spread from the middle to the two sections, quickly covering the entire branch.
At this moment, the green dew was still falling. Vitality gradually blossomed from the branch and began to grow.
When Chen Tingzhi saw this, he waved his sleeve and sent a stream of Qi of Clear Sky into the branch.
The Qi of Clear Sky could accept all things and also transform into all things. Because the branch had already recovered its vitality, there was no need to continue using Cymbidium Lucidum's vitality. He only needed to send in Qi of Clear Sky to maintain its existence.
If this continued, perhaps a second Cymbidium Lucidum could be born. However, there was no need for Xuanting to do this now. He let the green branch come back to life only to use it to find Shangchen's main heaven.
Originally, the main branch of Cymbidium Lucidum was hidden in the depths of the void. What could be seen from the outside was only layers of the void. It was extremely difficult to find. However, with this item and a suitable deduction, it would be possible to reveal its location.
Lin Tingzhi looked at the green branch that was bursting with vitality. He smiled and said, "This time, it's all thanks to Chen Tingzhi."
Chen Tingzhi said in a low voice, "I only walked around once. I didn't encounter any obstacles on the way. Those fellow Daoists put in a lot of effort just now."
Lin Tingzhi nodded and said to Dai Gonghan, "Dai Tingzhi, did you call him back?"
Dai Gonghan said, "I called him back. It's just that this time, Sun Xuanzun was unexpectedly expelled. I don't know how long it will take for him to return."
Zhangsun Qian said calmly, "I will pay attention to this matter."
Lin Tingzhi looked at the green branch that was gradually growing stronger under the nourishment of the Qi of Clear Sky. He said, "Good. Now that we have this item, we can arrange for the deduction as soon as possible."
