Although their escape route was suddenly blocked, Yuan Xia's side did not fall into chaos and fear as Yuan Xia had expected.
This was because although the Taoist path was cut off, the Xuanxiu disciples could still communicate with the rear through Xuntian Dao Zhang.
Before they came, Xuanting had told everyone that their escape route might be cut off. If such a thing happened, there was no need to worry. Xuanting would naturally get rid of the obstacles as soon as possible.
Tian Xia had made ample preparations before coming here. She had also made a lot of predictions, so she was prepared to deal with various situations. Chief Enforcer Chen was personally overseeing the rear to ensure that the path of retreat was smooth.
The other one, Zhang Yu, was overseeing this place at the moment. In the previous few battles, he had repeatedly defeated strong enemies. In the battle here, he had killed seven of his peers who wanted to survive. This had built an unprecedented strong confidence in everyone's hearts. All the cultivators felt that as long as he was overseeing this place, there was nothing to be afraid of.
Zhang Yu had temporarily retreated after handing over the matters at the front to Lin Tingzhi. However, he was still observing the situation. If there were any changes, he would take over or let the other court enforcers block it.
At this moment, their escape route was cut off. He tried to observe with his Eye Seal and Ear Seal. He could tell that this should be the power of a Dao Guarding Treasure. On second thought, he thought that this move might just be a deterrent from Yuan Xia.
This was because in a normal way of attacking, this move should not be done alone. It should be coordinated with other means.
Thinking about the letter sent by the Yuan Shang Hall, he could not help but ponder. This seemed more like the Yuan Shang Hall was telling them that it was not that it did not have the ability to deal with them. It was just that it was not willing to do so for the time being. However, if it was forced into a corner, it would not be certain.
His eyes moved slightly. It seemed that the Yuan Shang Hall was indeed in a difficult situation, which was why it used such a method.
After all, if the enemy was willing to sit down and negotiate with you, it must be because they could not control you, or they thought that the price of controlling you was greater than their own sacrifice. However, if they had enough power, there was no need to talk at all. They could just attack you directly.
Therefore, the more this was the case, the more it proved that the Yuan Shang Hall was in a difficult situation at the moment. After all, the one-year cycle was coming to an end. In order to fight against the Heaven's Sequence, they could not divert too much power.
However, it was wrong to underestimate the Origin Hall because of this.
He guessed that the Yuan Hall should have some powerful tricks up their sleeves. If they didn't do anything after cutting off their escape route, it would only make them look down on them even more. Therefore, they had to be careful.
After he made up his mind, he immediately ordered his subordinates to be on high alert.
At this moment, Feng Tingzhi glanced in front of him. After Lin Tingzhi left, the lightning pearls seemed to have gained a huge advantage. At this moment, he could vaguely see a nebula in front of him, and knew that it should be the location of a certain world. From the looks of it, it was still relatively close to them. If they wanted to, they could bring it into the range of their attacks.
Therefore, he lifted Xuntian Dao Zhang and asked, "Fellow Daoist Zhang, should we attack the World Dao in front of us?"
Zhang Yu disagreed, "No need. Let's not bother about it."
The World Dao had not joined the Yuan Hall's counterattack, so they did not need to take the initiative to provoke them.
From the news brought by Bei Wei Shi Dao, the World Dao was happy to see the Yuan Hall become a joke. If they were attacked, even if it was for their face, they would definitely attack.
Although the possibility of this was low because they were protecting the Heaven's Sequence, he did not need to take the initiative to find an excuse for this generation to attack.
If the enemy did not attack you together, then you could defeat them one by one. There was no need to provoke them all at once. In terms of tactics, it was not wise.
Somewhere in the Lower Hall, Minister Quan and Minister Xiang were also watching the battle ahead.
Seeing that there was no change in Tianxia's formation, Minister Xiang said, "Minister Quan, I feel that we still have to take out those inhuman objects. All the Shidao said that those objects did not belong to Yuanxia. That is a joke. Since they have fallen into Yuanxia's hands, they naturally belong to Yuanxia. Otherwise, what was the purpose of taking them back?"
Minister Quan naturally knew that Minister Xiang's suggestion was not wrong. But sometimes, due to some rules that were respected on the surface, even if one knew that it was the right thing to do, it was not good to do it.
Therefore, he only said, "Minister Xiang, the two halls have their own arrangements."
Minister Xiang did not speak. He only needed to make sure that what he said proved that his judgment was correct. He didn't care whether the Yuan Shang Hall accepted his words or not.
In any case, the Yuan Hall would not collapse because of Tianxia's attack this time. He thought that this was just Tianxia's retaliation. As long as Tianxia had not lost his mind, he would not do such a thing. Since that was the case, what was there to be anxious about?
On the other side, Minister Quan saw that Tianxia's defense did not change at all. It was as if they were not affected by the blockade of their retreat. After waiting for half a day, he did not receive any response as expected. He swung his sleeves. His figure flashed and moved to a wide platform.
Daoist Wan was waiting there. When he saw him appear, he bowed. He said, "How is it?" The latter said, "I have received the permission of the several Ministers."
Minister Quan looked past him and behind him. There was a huge crystal wall. It stood there like a sky-high ice rock. But if one looked carefully, one could see that there seemed to be many flickering figures inside.
Yuan Xia eliminated all the variables and killed all the different races.
But there were some things that were very special. Yuan Xia called them "Anomalies." They seemed to be born because of Yuan Xia's care in creating the order of heaven.
Yuan Xia had killed this thing several times, but it didn't take long for it to grow again. Moreover, creatures below the level of this thing would turn into this thing as long as they came into contact with it. Some cultivators at a higher level couldn't escape from it. It was a very troublesome thing.
After a few calculations, Yuan Xia finally gave up on killing him.
After all, Yuan Xia had a powerful figure of a higher level and a Daoist treasure. He would not be helpless against them. Instead, he calculated that after getting rid of this thing, it would bring more changes to the order of heaven. It would continue to be entangled endlessly. In other words, after getting rid of this trouble, there would be new trouble. One would not know what it would be.
Since that was the case, in order for Yuan Xia's order to be smooth, he temporarily restrained and sealed this thing.
It was like seeing some junk in the air but could not move it away. So, he simply pushed it to a dark corner. Out of sight, out of mind. He would deal with it when the time was right.
Now that Tianxia had invaded, they were ready to release it. If Tianxia could not get rid of this thing, he could only retreat. If he was killed by Tianxia, then all the burden would be taken by Tianxia. They were happy to see that.
At this moment, Councilor Guo walked into the crystal jade wall. He saw many Taoists who were like stone statues sitting here. Each of them looked exactly the same. As they walked in, they all turned their heads and looked at them. It was an extremely strange scene.
Taoist Wan took out a secret scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Councilor Guo. He said, "The Great Councilors said that this thing can be restrained for five days. If it is not taken back in five days and is not eliminated, then it will break free from the restraint and become a variable."
Councilor Guo took it and said, "Five days is enough. It will only take a few days to stop them. As long as Tianxia knows that I am not without means to deal with them, it will be enough."
As he spoke, he opened the secret scroll. Countless tadpole-like words appeared on it. He recited a few words. At this moment, the heads of all the Taoist stone statues began to shake violently.
At the same time, he faintly felt that there was some change in the mysteries of heaven. However, it was quickly suppressed by the Preface of Yuanxia and returned to its calm state.
Those Taoist stone statues suddenly stopped shaking. In the next moment, they all turned into a gust of cold wind and disappeared. In an instant, the entire crystal jade cave became empty.
Taoist Wan said, "This variable is very strange. In the past, I suspected that there might be a powerful existence behind it. However, it has not been confirmed. This time, if Tianxia can lure out the thing behind it, then it will be a good thing for me."
Councilor Guo shook his head and said, "Don't think about it. Even if there is a powerful existence, if he did not come out when facing me, Yuanxia, then he will not come out to face Tianxia now. This time, as long as we can tire Tianxia out and have no choice but to negotiate with me, it will be enough."
Taoist Wan said, "Councilor Guo's suggestion is somewhat reasonable. However, if Tianxia still does not retreat by then …"
Councilor Guo said slowly, "When the one-year cycle is over, we will be able to suppress him when we are free."
Above the void, within Tianxia's Formation. Lin Tingzhi stood in front of the intercepting formation weapon. At this moment, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. He raised his head and was slightly shocked. He did not know when, but he saw countless Taoists standing there. They looked like grey stone statues. At this moment, they were all staring at him motionlessly.
Zhang Yu also saw this scene. His eyes flashed slightly. The figures of the Taoists seemed to overlap. In the end, only one Taoist stood there. However, in his eyes, it was not clear whether it was real or not. It was like a reflection of something.
He immediately knew that this thing looked like a Taoist, but it was not a living being. It also did not seem to have the concept of life and death. However, there was no doubt that it was controlled by Yuanxia's power.
After a deep observation, he felt a strong sense in his heart. He felt a strong corrosive power from its Qi. He immediately transmitted his voice to the people below, "Tell all the disciples to stay where they are and guard their minds. Without orders, do not come out of the flying ship."
Lin Tingzhi said, "Zhang Tingzhi? This is … "
Zhang Yu said, "Lin Tingzhi, you go back first. I will deal with this thing." Lin Tingzhi did not hesitate at all. After a bow, his figure disappeared from where he was.
Zhang Yu looked at that thing again. It was just floating there. After Lin Tingzhi left, it turned to look at him. He met its gaze. He wanted to use the Six Righteous Heavenly Words to suppress and kill this thing. However, when he was about to do so, he felt that it was extremely inappropriate. He stopped.
