Yan Ruohan stood at the center of the Ten Thousand Luminaries Formation and stared at the other side. The space was silent, and the tunnel between the two worlds had not moved for a long time.
Following Zhang Yu's instructions, the Ten Thousand Luminaries Formation had already activated its power and gradually approached the entrance of the tunnel between the two worlds.
Before this, even with the suppression of the Clear Sky Aura, the tunnel was still expanding. But now, perhaps because the four High Paragons were gone, the power of the Dao Guarding Treasure had clearly weakened. The Clear Sky Aura activated by the formation's power was already showing signs of closing the tunnel.
If the tunnel could be completely closed, then it could be completely blocked. However, the two sects were seeking to enter the world together this time, and there might even be the intentions of the Almighties above them. That was why this person might not leave so easily.
The two sects might have suffered a great setback, but they should still have some strength left. The situation in Huanyang school was hard to say. She remembered that when the Divine Bright Sect left, a High Paragon named Li was in charge. This person had never appeared, and might be waiting for an opportunity.
If this person came here, then there might be a battle to be fought.
On the other side of the space, above the Yang Kalpa Qi. The thirty-something Daoists were channeling their Fierce Aura into the Green Spirit Branch to maintain its existence.
However, they did not have the authority to control the Yang Kalpa Qi. They could only activate the Dao Guarding Treasure slightly because Guan Chaosheng and the others were not here. The power they could activate was insignificant compared to the three High Paragons, so it was natural that they could not fight against the Clear Sky Aura surging in from outside.
An Elder named Shen said, "The tunnel between the two worlds is closing. If we don't think of a way to stop it, we might not be able to complete the ancestral master's instructions."
Another Elder named Fang said, "The person guarding Tianxia outside is strong. Even the three High Paragons are no match for him. It's impossible for us to win against him. We need Divine Bright Sect's High Paragon Li to come out. Only then will we have a chance to deal with him. High Paragon Li cares about himself and is not moving. What can we do?"
Daoist Shusun said, "I'm afraid Li Shangzun has no intention of making progress. He's still here because of the patriarch's care. He doesn't dare to disobey. We can't count on him."
Elder Shen said, "I don't know when High Venerable One will return. I think …" He looked at the others. "I think, we can only wait for High Venerable One to return before we make a decision."
Although he said so, everyone understood the meaning behind his words. If Guan Chaosheng did not turn back, then they might as well maintain the status quo.
The other elders did not say anything.
At this point, Huanyang school had suffered heavy losses, which shocked them greatly. Therefore, in their hearts, they didn't really want to enter the human world, because if things went wrong, they might even lose their lives.
However, this was the arrangement of the Ancestral Master. As long as this order was not rescinded, they would not dare to make the decision to retreat. Therefore, they could only hold on half-dead.
It would be best if Guan Chaosheng could come back in time, but if he couldn't, they couldn't be blamed. They had already done their best.
At this moment, there were actually some people who couldn't wait for Shangchen to fall. Then, they wouldn't have to hold on any longer.
On the rainbow in the distance, the old Daoist with disheveled hair was also silently looking at the passage between the two worlds.
Although the Sky-Swallowing Insect was still gnawing at the wall of the void, when the Clear Sky Qi arrived, it took the initiative to avoid it. It seemed that it had no intention of winning.
In fact, he had the same plan. It was better not to disobey the Ancestral Master's order. However, when it came to specific actions, he could come up with some strategies.
If Shangchen didn't exist anymore, they wouldn't be able to fight against Tianxia alone. There was no point in going back, so they could just retreat.
Driven by such thoughts, a strange scene appeared in the battlefield. Both sides, whether it was the enemy or the allies, hoped that Shangchen would fall sooner.
Shangchen, on the Sky Raising Tianyuan, Zhang Yu saw that Gu Yangzi had taken out a magic weapon to defend himself. He knew that the time was about right.
At this time, this person had undoubtedly reached a state where he had to use external objects to make up for his shortcomings. At this moment, he couldn't give him a chance to breathe. Otherwise, he would have to start looking for an opportunity from the beginning.
With a change of thought, he created a divine Qi doppelganger beside him. He continued to attack, constantly urging the Clear Sky Qi to suppress Gu Yangzi. The doppelganger pointed at Gu Yangzi. In an instant, the "Light Capturing" technique, "Illusionary Divine Slash", "Zhu Heng Chang Yi", and other supernatural powers fell together.
After the battle with Guan Chaosheng, he was very clear that when one cultivated to Gu Yangzi's level, the Taoist techniques in one's body were the foundation. As long as this Taoist technique wasn't broken, then one wouldn't be harmed by external supernatural powers.
However, even if a person could shift their vitality and eliminate external forces, it was not without limits. Once they received too many supernatural powers and Dao techniques at a certain time, they would definitely not be able to withstand it.
This person was now fighting against the two of them alone. Even if they could only force him to slow down for a moment, it would still be an extremely fatal loophole.
He could see the opportunity, so could Chen Tingzhi. When he attacked, he also stirred up his mana and urged the Clear Sky Qi to force forward.
This time, the two of them attacked at the same time. Gu Yangzi also felt unprecedented pressure. At this moment, the best choice was not to fight the two of them head-on, but to try to avoid it.
However, the people he was facing at this moment, or rather, his opponents at this moment, were not only Chen Tingzhi and Zhang Yu. There was also the entire Tianxia behind the two of them. As early as the battle just now, Xuanting had already set up a formation plate instrument around him. At this moment, he couldn't avoid it at all, nor could he escape. Even if he retreated a little further, there was a possibility that he would be trapped in the formation.
Even if his Taoist techniques were profound and he wasn't afraid of the formation, this would undoubtedly give Zhang Yu and Chen Tingzhi more opportunities. Therefore, he could only face them head-on.
At this moment, he also displayed the methods of a sect leader. Even if he was in an extremely difficult situation, there was still no sign of panic in his response.
He held up the long branch in his hand and pulled it out. It collided directly with the Clear Sky Qi that Zhang Yu pushed over. After a slight obstruction at the strongest point, he stretched out his hand and pressed down. Only then did he press down on the Clear Sky Qi that he was holding. Both of them disintegrated together.
However, even if he could block one side, he couldn't block the other. At this moment, Chen Tingzhi's attacks were already pressing down on him. He had no choice but to use the technique of "Pursuing the Truth, Borrowing the Succession". This was a technique that extracted the life force that he should have accumulated.
At this time, he naturally couldn't care about the resources for his future cultivation. He would use as much as he had.
However, this was still not enough. Because with the life force, he still needed the power to utilize the life force. Thus, he used another Divine Ability, "Extension". This was overdrafting his own origin life force, and from there, excavating an even stronger power to utilize the green spirit life force.
He completed these changes in an instant, but Chen Tingzhi's attack was even faster. At this moment, it had already broken through the outer layer of his Dao technique barrier and was about to reach his body. At this moment, he spat out a mouthful of Green Qi and life force, which barely blocked this round of attacks from the two people.
However, he knew in his heart that the crisis had yet to be resolved. As expected, the two of them would still choose to use this method of attack. Regardless of whether it was the accumulation of cultivation or one's own origin, there was always a limit. As long as he couldn't change the situation on the battlefield, once these things were exhausted, it would be the time of his defeat.
Chen Tingzhi and Zhang Yu weren't in a hurry at this moment. Now that they had grasped the rhythm and general trend of the battle, they only needed to maintain their attacks and peel off layer by layer the methods that Gu Yangzi could use. Then, when he no longer had any protection, that would be the turning point.
Therefore, after the first round of attacks, the two of them immediately launched a second round of attacks. Gu Yangzi had no choice but to use all of his skills to fight head-on again.
Under the pressure of the two people, because he kept excavating his own origin and continuously extracting resources, he couldn't get a chance to recover. His aura was also weakening.
Just as he was about to collapse, he promptly used the "Positive Yang Meridian Returning" technique. In an instant, his aura was restored to its peak.
This wasn't a simple complete recovery. Instead, he used the ability of Cymbidium Lucidum to turn his own origin to the moment before the battle. For the current him, he hadn't used any of his mystical abilities, supernatural powers, or even his origin.
Zhang Yu saw that he had completely recovered. His eyes flashed slightly, and he continued to attack. Chen Tingzhi's expression didn't change at all. His attacks were as steady as before. This was because they knew very well that it wasn't easy to kill someone like Gu Yangzi before they completely eliminated all of his methods.
However, these actions didn't have much meaning. This was because they were only delaying the battle for a while. Now that the two factions of Shenzhao and Huanyang were gone, it was no longer possible for the Shangchen family to fight alone.
At this time, Tianxia and the other Xuan Zun also unconsciously cast their gazes towards them. This was because they could all feel that the battle was about to end soon.
After the battle between the two sides continued for a while, Gu Yangzi's aura once again sank.
This time, he still couldn't find any opportunity to break through the joint attack of the two people. In the next confrontation, he used up all of his mana. Due to the lack of mana, the green branch in his hand was the first to break under the impact. It turned into broken branches and fell to the ground.
Immediately after, the thousands of shadows of the green wooden hairpin were also broken through by the twelve sword rays. One of the sword rays slashed directly on the body of the wooden hairpin. This instrument couldn't withstand it and was split into two. For a moment, its spiritual aura dissipated.
All of this happened in an instant. Gu Yangzi lost two of his protective treasures. His original defense was suddenly messed up. At the same time, he felt that the heavens and earth darkened. Everything seemed to be separated from him. His own senses were cut off again.
This supernatural power was very clever. It was formed by condensing the Qi of the Clear Sky. Even he couldn't completely resolve it with the method of stabilizing his origin.
And because he had used all of his mystical abilities repeatedly, he could only use a dissolving supernatural power. Although he recovered in an instant, he saw that an extremely sharp sword ray had already pressed down on the space between his eyebrows.
