After Zhang Yu gave the order, Zhu Feng, Mei Shang, and Jin Zhixing solemnly acknowledged. According to the arrangement, they were prepared to split up and search for their respective targets.
Because they had the Yuandu Xuantu to move around at any time, once they encountered danger, they could use it to leave at any time or ask for help. They could be at ease and boldly split up. And because of this, once they found the location of You City, it would be impossible for the other party to escape from the Yuandu Xuantu's seal.
After Zhang Yu waited for the three to leave, he looked up and saw that there were formation plates floating from the void and landing in the Thousand Luminaries Formation. The formation was constantly being strengthened, and the Qi of the Clear Vault of Heaven that poured in gradually increased.
This formation was not like when they were in Shangchen, where there was a layer of barrier. Now, the formation could withstand as much Qi of the Clear Vault of Heaven as it poured in.
He looked at the void passage again. Under the impact of the formation's power, the passage was gradually expanding. Although the other side was trying to block it, they were powerless at the moment. If this continued, if the other side could not come up with any effective methods, then they could rely on the formation to launch an attack in at most a day.
After thinking about it, he withdrew his gaze and continued to think about the Dao.
He believed that people like Guan Chaosheng, Gu Yangzi, and the others should have cultivated their mana and supernatural powers to the extreme, thoroughly comprehending all kinds of changes, and then cultivated their own Dao. Of course, there was also the help of the Dao Guarding Treasure, but it was probably more of an effect on the supernatural powers, and not the Dao itself.
This was understandable as well. Treasures of the Great Path only allowed cultivators to better comprehend the power of the upper levels and improve their own cultivation. However, if one's own Way followed this, then one would probably only become a host for this ritual implement, and that would be losing oneself.
When cultivators of the same sect first started cultivating, their cultivation techniques might seem very similar. However, the further they progressed, the greater the differences would be.
Therefore, it could be seen that although Guyang and the other two were all legitimate disciples of Shangchen and similarly wielded Cymbidium Lucidum, each of their Daoist techniques were completely different. If one didn't know beforehand, it would be very difficult for outsiders to tell that they were actually from the same sect based on the abilities they displayed.
However, there was no doubt that this place required one to cultivate the transformation of mana to an extremely high level. Generally speaking, one would need to go through hundreds or even thousands of years of cultivation to achieve such an achievement. There seemed to be no shortcuts here.
However, the difference was that he possessed three seals of the Grand Dao. Moreover, he was able to move the secrets of the Dao through the Word Seal, so he wondered if he would be able to obtain some inspiration from this. He didn't hope to succeed immediately. He only hoped that he could avoid going astray on the path of pursuing the Dao. He thought to himself, "Looks like I'll have to go back and flip through the books again."
Deep in the void, on a platform in You City, Daoist Xian Ding and Daoist Wang were playing Dao Chess. As they were deep in thought, a disciple walked over and bowed in the distance. "Venerable One, Tianxia seems to have gone Xuan Zun in search of several Dao Masters."
Daoist Xian Ding didn't immediately respond. After placing down a piece, he said, "Then tell them that Tianxia already knows where they are."
He didn't really want to send these people away. Rather, he wanted to borrow Tianxia's hand to force these people to make a choice. Now that Shangchen had fallen and they realized the threat of Tianxia, just how many people were willing to be captured and imprisoned?
After Daoist Wang placed down a piece, he hesitated for a moment and then asked, "Venerable One, if fellow daoists ask how Tianxia knows where they are …"
Daoist Xian Ding said with a light expression, "If they have the heart to seek refuge, then they won't ask."
Daoist Wang thought for a moment and then fell silent.
Although doing this would cause those fellow daoists to hold grudges, Xian Ding clearly wanted to use this opportunity to consolidate the strength of You City. If he could see this, then those fellow daoists could also see it. If they were willing to come, then that meant they could accept it to a certain extent.
Daoist Xian Ding played Dao Chess with him for less than half the summer. Then, a disciple came to deliver a letter. He waved his sleeve and the game stopped. Daoist Wang tactfully excused himself.
Daoist Xian Ding left the platform and turned to a side hall. This place had already been allocated to Yu Lingbi to lay down the array formation. After he walked in, he saw that the entire array formation was more or less complete and was now being sorted out.
Yu Lingbi sensed his arrival and sent an avatar forward. He bowed and said, "Junior is guiding the array formation and cannot personally greet you. Please forgive me for my rudeness."
Daoist Xian Ding smiled and said, "Manager Yu is too polite. We have important business to attend to. How long will it take for this array formation to be completed?"
Yu Lingbi said, "If it's only the few of us, then the current array formation is enough. But if we want to transfer all the fellow daoists in You City, it will take a day or two." As she spoke to here, she revealed an apologetic expression. "It's also junior's fault. If the several High Venerables came, perhaps this matter would have already been completed."
Daoist Xian Ding said, "Manager Yu is too modest. To be able to reach this step in such a short period of time is already very fast."
Delaying it for a day or two was something he could accept. When the time came, those City Lords who felt the threat of Tianxia would rush over as long as they understood the situation.
Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly heard a faintly discernible sound. His heart trembled slightly. He ended his conversation with Yu Lingbi and walked out of the side hall. Then, with a serious expression, he transformed into a beam of rainbow light and instantly arrived in front of the ring-shaped hole in the deepest part of You City.
When he landed at the edge, he saw that tens of thousands of hectares of water-like gravel flowed up from the hole and formed an incomparably huge figure of a Daoist. It looked like it was still flowing and changing from time to time.
He hurriedly bowed respectfully and said, "Teacher, what can I do for you to call me here?"
At the same time, on the other side of the passage between the two worlds, when the cultivators of the Shenzhao and Huanyang sects saw Tianxia reinforcing the Thousand Luminaries Great Formation and trying to expand the crack in the void, they knew that Tianxia was not going to stop after destroying Shangchen. Instead, he planned to get rid of them all in one go.
Once they realized this, they began to set up formations behind the passage. In truth, this had already begun after Guan Chaosheng was killed by Zhang Yu.
Even so, the elders of the Huanyang school were still abnormally uneasy. After all, they no longer had the protection of the cultivators who had plucked the fruits of the upper-level cultivators. The power they could mobilize from the Solar Kalpa Realm was very limited. How could they have the confidence to withstand Tianxia's attacks?
In truth, if it were not for the patriarch's orders, which they did not dare to casually disobey, and Li Mizhen, the only exalted one of the two sects, who insisted on waiting for the remaining people of You City and Shangchen to come over, they would have already destroyed the Cymbidium Lucidum that was sealing the passage and retreated from this place.
Elder Shen looked outside with a solemn expression and said, "Elder Shusun, from the looks of it, Tianxia will attack us in one or two days at most. I don't know when You City will arrive. If we wait any longer, I'm afraid it will be bad."
Daoist Shusun also felt that something was wrong. Tianxia was accumulating power, and when he attacked with full force later, they could not withstand it alone. Even if Li Mizhen was there, he would not have enough time to protect the people of his sect. How could he divert his attention to protect them? He pondered for a moment and said, "Let me go and ask Exalted Li about it."
Elder Shen said, "Then you have to be quick."
As they spoke, all the elders suddenly felt a throbbing in their hearts. They subconsciously looked outside and saw that the Heavenly Balls of Raging Flames floating in the void were all sucked into the Solar Kalpa Realm as if they were attracted. They fused with each other and emitted magnificent and dazzling rays of light.
Daoist Shusun saw this and was delighted. He said, "Exalted One is about to come back."
The rest of the elders were also energized.
As the Heavenly Balls of Raging Flames were sucked into the Solar Kalpa Realm, after about fifteen minutes, the light above the Solar Kalpa Realm seemed to become brighter. Then, the bright light spun, and a scorching Qi shot down. A blurry figure condensed inside.
The elders and the Nascent Soul cultivators behind them saw this and quickly bowed.
As the light distorted, Guan Chaosheng's figure walked out. He glanced around and said, "Where are Junior Martial Brother Chen and Junior Martial Sister Yu?"
He only remembered the moment before the Divine Qi was stripped away. He did not know anything that happened after that.
It was precisely because this Divine Qi was completely separated from the main body that it could avoid all kinds of magical powers and artifacts and preserve itself.
Daoist Shusun quickly told them what happened just now. However, with their abilities, they could not see the specific details clearly. It was also difficult for them to distinguish how Guan Chaosheng was defeated. Therefore, they could only describe the whole process.
The one who saw this more clearly was Li Mizhen of the Shenzhao Sect. However, it was not good for them to let outsiders know that their Superior Martial Brother was killed by the opponent.
After hearing this, Guan Chaosheng was a little surprised. "Oh? I was defeated by a Xuanxiu? "He was very interested in the method Zhang Yu used to kill him.
He glanced outside and saw that the passage between the two worlds was being supported by a Clear Sky Qi and was still expanding. He said, "Since Shangchen has been destroyed, why don't you retreat?"
Daoist Shusun quickly said, "Just now, Superior Xian Ding of You City came and said that he was willing to join forces with us to resist Tianxia's invasion. Later, he said that this was instructed by the powerful figures of the upper class. If I don't believe it, I can ask the Grandmaster. We thought that this might be the arrangement of the Grandmaster and several powerful figures, so we dare not retreat. "
In fact, they had lost the channel to communicate with their Grandmaster after leaving Guan Chaosheng. However, they believed that Daoist Xian Ding would not dare to talk nonsense when it came to the powerful figures of the upper class.
Guan Chaosheng said with his sleeves behind his back, "You go back and guard the array. I will ask the Grandmaster to confirm this."
Daoist Shusun and the others felt as if they had been pardoned. They bowed and left.
At this time, Guan Chaosheng turned his head and looked outside along the passage between the two worlds. His eyes fell on the array on the opposite side.
Zhang Yu was originally sitting on the array core. At this moment, he once again felt the same gaze as before. He also raised his head and looked over. Although he did not see it clearly, he had a feeling that Guan Chaosheng had definitely returned.
