With this slash, Zhang Yu instantly used "Absolute Slash". No matter who came before him, no matter what Dao technique he used, he only needed to slash out with this sword.
Although he could feel that the opponent's Dao technique might hurt him, he was currently in the outer body of the barrier. The one controlling the Mysterious and Absolute Slash was his main body, so even if his outer body was destroyed, it would not be a big deal.
However, without his outer body, he would not be able to coordinate with his fundamental Dao technique, and the flying sword would not have the power to guide the Dao treasure. Therefore, if the conditions allowed, he still needed to preserve his outer body.
As he moved, he felt as if nothing had happened. It was as if he had simply waved his sword, and there was no excess Mana or light aura emitted.
Daoist Xu was in the middle of his journey when he suddenly stopped. Then, he fell from the sky very abruptly. Before he even touched the ground, his entire body had already been split into two.
Duan and Sheng had been paying attention the entire time. They wanted to see the outcome of the battle between the two. However, what they saw was that before the two of them even came into contact with each other, they fell from the sky for no reason at all. Then, their bodies directly disintegrated into clumps of light.
However, in the next moment, they saw a sword mark that could almost penetrate the entire black-gold barrier. Looking at the direction it pointed, it happened to pass through Daoist Xu's body.
Minister Duan could not help but feel a chill in his heart, and said, "That's … a flying sword?"
Sheng Zheng's expression also changed, not only because of the ferocious power displayed by the flying sword, but also because they did not see anything just now, and did not even sense anything. This was because the speed of the sword light surpassed their senses, and thus they could not detect it, and such a flying sword technique could not be blocked.
Minister Duan said with lingering fear, "No wonder, Minister Duan and the other three could only be slaughtered by such a sword technique."
Moreover, what was even more frightening was that after being killed by the sword light, the main body would also be destroyed. He had never heard of such a sword technique before.
Yuan Xia did not have such a technique of "Spirit on the Sword", and currently, there were no upper realm powerhouses who achieved it through sword techniques, and the reason was very simple. Just like a certain lower level that Zhang Yu's incarnation had experienced, Yuan Xia had sword techniques in the past. However, with the appearance of various mature Dao techniques, it was no longer feasible to rely on sword techniques to seek the Dao.
If you can't even win in a fight of magical powers, how can you cultivate? There were fewer and fewer people like this. Moreover, there were no great beings who could reach the upper levels. This path proved that it was not feasible. Thus, it gradually declined, and there were no further developments.
After Zhang Yu killed Daoist Xu, he continued to move forward. He glanced at a certain spot and knew that the person in front of him was watching his every move. However, he was not afraid of being exposed. He was also not afraid of being found out about Zhan Zhujue. If there was no way, then there was no way to stop it.
Moreover, Yuan Xia's cultivator was right in front of him. How could he let go of such a good opportunity to weaken Yuan Xia? Naturally, he killed him with his sword.
As for the other people in the stronghold who wanted to complete their Dao, Wu Tingzhi would deal with them. His current target was the person in charge of the overall situation in Yuanxia.
At this moment, Sheng Zheng also regained his senses. He said loudly, "We must eliminate this person!"
However, Minister Duan's reaction was different from his. He said, "Minister Sheng, we must send this news back. If Yuan Xia encounters this person again, we can be prepared in advance."
Sheng Zheng suddenly turned his head and stared at him as if he wanted to see through his inner thoughts. Minister Duan met his gaze calmly and said seriously, "If we all die here, then no one will be able to bring the news back."
Sheng Zheng snorted and said, "Minister Duan, do you think we can't hold on?"
Minister Duan shook his head and said, "The difference is too big. You have to admit that Tianxia has the advantage now. We no longer have the ability to hold on. If we lose the opportunity again, we will all be wiped out. As the person in charge of the overall situation, we can't be reckless. We must consider this possibility."
Sometimes, both sides would make accurate judgments and choices, but when it came to actual actions, it would be different. That was because there would always be some kind of deviation when it came to specific matters.
In the past, they could rely on Yuan Xia's strength to get the entire process back on track and rhythm even if the rhythm was slightly off. But now that they had encountered Tianxia, who could compete with them, they couldn't do as they wished.
Sheng Zheng glanced at him and said, "So, you want to leave?"
Minister Duan said, "It's time to prepare for retreat."
Sheng Zheng snorted and swung his sleeve. "I said before that you can leave if you want to. I won't stop you." He revealed a trace of mockery. "But it's too late now. Minister Duan, you can't leave even if you want to."
Minister Duan was silent for a moment and sighed. "Yes, I can't leave." He looked at the escape light that was breaking through the formation, and an unknown light flashed in his eyes. "Since that's the case, we can only fight."
Hearing his words, Sheng Zheng did not look at him anymore. Instead, she focused on regulating her breathing and began to make preparations for the battle.
He dared to stay because he had some confidence. At the start, he didn't know Zhang Yu's methods. But now that he knew, it was a different matter.
This was inside the black-gold fortress. He could use the formation to evade and escape.
At their level, even a simple formation could restrain their opponents.
Moreover, he had the fundamental dao technique "Asking and Kowtowing Heaven's Heart". As long as there was something that could be done, it was very likely to be done through the activation of the dao technique.
Now, his dao technique told him that he had a chance. Zhang Yu's swordsmanship was not flawless.
As long as there was a chance, he had a chance to win.
The other was that no matter how Zhang Yu killed people, he didn't think that this swordsmanship could be used against two people at the same time. Then, if he faced the two of them, he would only attack one of them first. Then, the other would have a chance to attack. This person was the bait on the surface.
Of course, he didn't want that person to be him.
Logically speaking, Zhang Yu had fought with him a few times and was likely to choose to kill him first. But he thought that Zhang Yu would kill Minister Duan first.
Because he had once faced off against Wu Tingzhi, his fundamental dao technique was known to Tianxia, but Minister Duan's had not been exposed.
Zhang Yu didn't know what it was, but things that he didn't know were the scariest. Therefore, if he was on the scene, he would definitely kill Minister Duan first to eliminate the unstable factors.
Once this possibility appeared, he could use the foundation to push it to fruition. Just in case, he thought that he had to make a cover for himself.
Therefore, after he regulated his breathing, he stretched out his hand and pointed again. Talismans fell from the void and surrounded him. These were the life-saving talismans that he had refined. Any divine ability or Dao skill that came at him would have to go through these talismans before it could land on him. Once it came into contact with the talismans, he would constantly move around, making it impossible for others to find him.
However, he also knew that although this method seemed to be very useful, it could only hinder people like Zhang Yu slightly. However, this was enough.
When facing an opponent, under difficult circumstances, many people preferred to choose the easier to deal with first.
He didn't know what Minister Duan's protective talisman was, and he didn't know if his setup could suppress Minister Duan. Therefore, he could only take a gamble.
Minister Duan was also preparing at this moment. He simply threw out a talisman and consumed a pill. Then, his entire body was enveloped in a light screen, and his figure couldn't be seen clearly.
After a while, his aura began to fade as if it had been restrained to the extreme. If one didn't look at the layer of light surrounding him, it was almost impossible to know that he was really there.
In fact, they didn't know what the other party's fundamental dao technique was. Logically speaking, they should communicate with each other at this time so that they could work together to deal with their opponent.
However, one of them was from the Upper Hall, while the other was from the Lower Hall. Although they were working together now, neither of them truly trusted each other. If they revealed their fundamental dao technique, it would mean that the other party's strength would be known. Therefore, they couldn't explain clearly and could only fight for themselves.
At this moment, Zhang Yu finally arrived at the core of the dark gold fortress. He used his fundamental dao technique and easily pushed aside the formation and entered.
And through the Xuntian Dao Zhang, the scene inside was reflected in the eyes of many of the Tingzhi.
Everyone saw that this was a wide rooftop. There were a few small platforms scattered around. Although there were some cultivators standing on them, their cultivation levels were obviously not high. Only the two figures shrouded in light standing on the platform were the real masters!
From the aura on their bodies and the position they were standing on, there was no doubt that they were people who sought the complete dao technique. They should be the two Ministers.
Chief Minister Chen and Zhu Tingzhi simultaneously increased the activation of their Guardian Treasures. They tried their best to contain it and not allow it to interfere with the battle between the two parties.
This action also caused the aura of the Sky Diagram on Sheng Zheng and Minister Duan to fade. At the same time, because of this confrontation, the protection of You City's Golden Sand on Zhang Yu's body was also weakened. In a moment, it was almost gone.
The three of them looked at each other silently. They all knew that as long as the aura of the Guardian Treasures was still there, then it would be very difficult for ordinary methods to hurt the person behind it. But if the aura of the Guardian Treasures disappeared for a moment, then it would be the time for them to attack.
Zhang Yu looked at the two people opposite him. With the "Eye Seal" and "Knowledge Seal", he only needed to glance at them to see their appearance and current state. He recognized that one of them was Minister Sheng, but he didn't recognize the other.
He didn't say anything unnecessary. After waiting for a while, he saw that the aura of the two people on the other side suddenly weakened. His eyes flashed and he raised his sword and slashed at Sheng Zheng!
