Following the destruction of the Sun Hall, more than half of the Great Sun in the sky disappeared without a sound, leaving only a small piece of it.
Zhang Yu was in mid-air and felt his body suddenly become light. He saw that the ground that was tilting towards him had returned to its original state.
He looked at the empty hall. From his previous observations, Ren Yinping should have also reached the Virtual Realm. Under normal circumstances, once the body that had entered the world was destroyed, it would not be so easy for her to return. If the conditions allowed it, he could even seal it again, making it difficult for her to return in a short period of time.
But at this moment, he felt that things were not so simple.
Just as he was thinking about it, he suddenly realized that the entire Sun Hall had returned to its original state. It was as if everything had returned to the state before the Abhijna was activated.
At this moment, he seemed to have sensed something. He looked up and his gaze froze. He saw Ren Yinping standing there with his sleeves behind his back. Just like before, his aura was complete and he did not seem to be injured.
At this moment, the aura of the Immortal Chasing Bell turned back and flew into his heart. At the same time, it brought back the consciousness of Daoist Zhan Kong. After he looked at it, his eyes flashed and he thought to himself, "I see."
Ren Yinping also noticed the aura and sensed a familiar thought from it. He said indifferently, "I'm sure you've understood."
In the past, every disciple of the Yuandu Sect who held the authority of the Yuandu Xuantu would imprint their own reflection into the Daoist Instrument.
As long as they were still in the world of the Yuandu Xuantu, even if they were killed, they could be reflected again. Moreover, there was no need to expend any divine Qi or mana.
However, such a powerful ability was sealed by Xun Ji and Zhan Kong in the past.
The two of them made such a decision to prevent people from the sect from using this point to break Tianxia's agreement without paying too much of a price.
Ren Yinping had always been brooding about this. Because without this part of the technique, his strength was undoubtedly weakened. But later on, he realized that there was a way to bypass this restriction.
That was to use the Sect Leader's Talisman!
No matter how Xun Ji and Zhan Kong made the agreement back then, the Sect Master's decree still existed there. This thing existed with Yuandu Xuantu, and could not be abolished. Both of them abided by the agreement, and did not establish a sect, and did not inherit the position of Venerable. Thus, this thing naturally fell into his hands.
In reality, if the holder of this talisman did not go through the Sect Leader Imparting Ceremony, he would not be considered a true Sect Leader.
But there was one point. If the person holding the sect leader's decree was killed in the sect, it could affect the survival of the sect. For the continuation of the sect, the decree could activate the Xuan Diagram and help it break the seal. He planned to use this point.
It was just that during this process, he had to be defeated under absolute power and not be sent to his death.
However, even with that being the case, he wasn't certain if this method would really work.
If the talisman did not acknowledge this at all and went to find his fellow sect members or disciples, then not only would he not obtain anything, he might be cut off from this world by the Xuanting and never be able to return.
But if he did not do this, he did not have the confidence to fight against Tianxia. Thus, for him, this was tantamount to a huge gamble. Fortunately, he had won the gamble.
Zhang Yu looked at him standing there motionless as if his mind had wandered. He did not hold back, and with a thought, the flying sword hovering in the air suddenly descended.
Ren Yinping saw the sword light fly over. This time, he did not block it at all, and allowed the sword light to pass through his head.
Under the impact of the sword light, his body suddenly exploded. However, the pieces of his body scattered and quickly disappeared. When the lesson ended, he once again appeared there, and his body was still intact.
He said calmly, "It is useless. Does Zhang Shouzheng still not understand? With this talisman here, you will come back every time you kill me. "
Now that victory was in his hands, he was not in a hurry. He looked down and said slowly, "Zhang Shouzheng, as I said before, as long as Tianxia is willing to make an agreement with me, even if Yuandu reestablishes a sect, I am still willing to abide by the previous agreement and not offend Tianxia. If you are not assured, I can also swear that I will not let any external Daoist cultivator enter."
After Zhang Yu saw Zhan Kong's thought, he also knew why this person was unwilling to come out. It was because Ren Yinping had the talisman of the sect leader. There was a temporary authority on it that could detain fellow sect members.
The original intention was to suppress those sect members who also had the authority of the talisman of the sect, but it was used by Ren Yinping instead.
During this period of time when the talisman was restricted, if Zhan Kong took the initiative to confront the "sect leader", it was very likely that his authority would be taken away. Therefore, he could only hide for a period of time before revealing himself.
Fortunately, Zhan Kong and his teacher Xun Ji also left behind a backup plan. They couldn't come out themselves, so they used their students and disciples to reason about this matter.
Teacher Xun had taught many disciples over the years and guided them to seek refuge in Tianxia. Some of the disciples even entered Xuan Zun's sect. Of course, this was to select disciples that could be passed on to him, but it was also to give Tianxia an excuse to intervene in Yuandu's affairs at the crucial moment.
The two of them did all this not out of selfishness, but to follow Tianxia's rules and regulations. They were not willing to let Yuandu return to the old path of a sect.
At this moment, he looked at Ren Yinping and said, "Yuandu has long been incorporated into Tianxia, and the old sect system cannot be re-established in Tianxia. This is non-negotiable."
Seeing that he was still unwilling to agree, Ren Yinping shook his head and said indifferently, "You have rejected my good intentions time and time again, so don't blame Yuandu for being impolite."
Although he didn't achieve what he wanted, he didn't care about these things now. With that brand as the basis, he was already firmly in an invincible position.
He waved his hand, and a mighty vortex of mana came from the sky and pressed down on Zhang Yu.
With the brand as the basis, his connection with Yuandu Xuantu became even closer. Even if he couldn't control the Yuandu Great Hall yet, he could borrow more power than before.
In addition, any attacks from the outside were no longer a threat to him. He didn't have to dodge any attacks, and he only had to attack.
Zhang Yu stood still. Under the urging of his thoughts, the sword light flashed and slashed at the incoming vortex. The highly condensed Absolute Slash didn't move at all, and with one strike, the force was eliminated.
However, he knew that if he didn't get rid of Ren Yinping, it would be the same no matter how many times he defeated the incoming force.
In Daoist Zhan Kong's thoughts, he had actually given him a way to deal with the enemy. The first was to find a way to erase the brand. This was very difficult to do, and there was almost no chance because you didn't know where the brand was.
The second was that Zhan Kong hoped that he could persevere until he escaped. Then, he could come out and help him. At that time, he could use the authority of the artifact in his hands to help.
However, he didn't know how long it would take for Zhan Kong to come out. Moreover, it was hard to say if Ren Yinping didn't have a backup plan, so he couldn't count on others. This matter had to be done by himself!
His eyes flashed slightly, and with a wave of his sleeve, a golden talisman flew down from his Daoist robe. In an instant, it turned into a ray of light and shone on Ren Yinping's body.
Ren Yinping had a deep impression of the two supernatural powers just now. Even though he was no longer afraid, he still couldn't help but show a cautious expression.
However, this time, after waiting for a while, he realized that nothing happened. He snorted, and with a wave of his sleeve, he tried to release another vortex of mana.
However, at this time, he was surprised to find that this vortex only released a little bit before it collapsed on its own.
This time, Zhang Yu used the supernatural power that Chao Huan left on him. It was called "Perfect Pair of Tactics". When this light fell, unless there was no difference between the two times, when a cultivator used the same method, their power would be taken away.
However, no action in the world was the same, and no power was the same. Even Xuan Zun couldn't do it. This was equivalent to sealing the supernatural power.
Only now did Ren Yinping understand the change here. He said coldly, "How boring."
His body collapsed on itself, and he took the opportunity to get rid of the supernatural power. With a flash of light, he relied on the imprint to appear again.
Shortly after, he activated his spell and dark clouds appeared in the sky, blocking half of the sun. Rain began to fall from the sky, and everything that came into contact with it instantly disappeared. Every single drop of rain had the power to turn corporeal and ethereal.
He could see that Zhang Yu was able to avoid Xuan Tu's power mainly because of the Taoist robe on his body. As long as he removed the robe, he could do whatever he wanted.
Of course, Zhang Yu could also use his heart to resist, but doing so would consume a lot of energy. He couldn't last long, and he would still achieve his goal.
When Zhang Yu saw the rain, it was not difficult for him to guess the other party's motive. With a wave of his sleeve, another golden book flew out from his body. As the golden book flashed, an invisible wheel revolved around his body. All the rain that was coming at him was reflected back into the wheel. For a moment, it was a stalemate. A white line appeared where the rain collided, as if it had cut the sky in half.
This was the supernatural power that Zhangsun Qian had given him, the "Myriad Manifestations Heavenly Wheel". It could reflect all external power, and even return it to the master. However, this method consumed a lot of energy, so he only kept it on his body.
With this supernatural power, he could resist for a while. However, he knew that to defeat this person, just defending was useless. Moreover, this ability of copying was not unbreakable.
At this moment, he held a spell, and another golden talisman floated down from his robe. The supernatural power contained in this talisman was not the strongest, but it was a power he was familiar with. It could even be channeled into his heart's light to increase its power!
As the talisman shattered, there was a loud boom. An enormous green sun instantly rose into the sky, and released endless light in all directions!
