When Wei Yi saw the three Shangchen cultivators, he knew that he couldn't fight this battle head-on.
He knew very well that unless his strength reached the level of his Senior Brother, it would be impossible for him to suppress the three of them in a head-on battle. Not to mention, there was an unknown Evil God beside them.
If he only fought using normal methods, he wouldn't be able to hold on for long, so he could only use some extreme methods.
After using one attack to drive Yuan Si out of the battle circle, layers of thick and bright clouds floated around his body, wrapping around him.
This was an arcane artifact that he had brought back from Xuan Ting that belonged to him. However, even though he could summon it quickly, because he had used most of his power to deal with Yuan Si, the amount of Fa Li that could be used on the arcane artifact was naturally less.
He estimated that this artifact would only be able to resist for a breath of time at most, but it would still be able to block a lot of attacks and buy him some time to recover his Qi. However, to his surprise, this artifact actually managed to resist for a breath of time before collapsing.
Although Lian Qiang and Cai Xun's series of attacks were fierce, in reality, they didn't use their full strength. It wasn't that they didn't want to use their strength, but they were guarding against the Evil God who had transformed into a white-clothed cultivator.
Although Gu Yangzi called them to help the Evil God, the two sides hadn't formed an alliance and hadn't made an oath. Who knew if the Evil God wouldn't make a move against them?
They weren't so naive as to think that the Evil God would keep his word. Perhaps when he dealt with Wei Zheng, he would also deal with them. However, this action allowed Wei Zheng to have a chance to catch his breath, and all the Evil God wanted was this instant. He naturally wouldn't miss this golden opportunity. His figure flashed, and he suddenly vanished from the scene.
However, he didn't immediately escape, but directly rushed towards Lian Qiang and Cai Xun.
In terms of strategy, if you want to leave, you have to go right first. If you want to go forward, you have to go first. If you want to escape, it's useless to blindly run away.
At this moment, the magic power outside his body surged, as if a burst of power was about to explode. It looked like he was going to destroy the magic power in his body and perish together with the other two.
Lian and Cai's expressions changed. Wei Yi's aura was bursting out from his body, and he didn't seem to be bluffing at all.
They also believed that this person would do so. This person had already reached the Void Manifestation Realm. If he abandoned his body in this world, he would at most return after a few decades or a hundred years.
However, they were extremely unwilling to do so. They originally had the upper hand. If they were forced to perish together, then wouldn't they have come for nothing? Therefore, they all retreated at the same time.
Wei Yi took this opportunity to rush out of the encirclement.
Hmm … four people?
As he thought about it, he suddenly realized that even though he had the impression that he was dealing with four people, he had instinctively ignored the Evil God from the start, and the Evil God didn't seem to have participated in the attack against him.
So where did the Evil God go and what was he doing? He didn't make a move just now. Was he preparing to ambush him somewhere?
At this moment, the white-robed cultivator stood alone in the distance. He didn't participate in the battle, but looked at everyone from the side. However, there was a strange light in his eyes.
On his forehead, there was an eye. It was constantly moving, and it would occasionally stop, as if it was looking for something.
Actually, it wasn't just Wei Yi. Even Cai Xun, Lian Qiang and the others knew that they were here to help the Evil God, but once the battle started, they seemed to have forgotten about it and didn't feel that anything was wrong.
At this moment, when the two saw Wei Yi break out of the battle and escape, they didn't even think about it and ordered Yuan Si to go forward to stop him, while they released their spells from behind to slow him down.
Yuan Si had almost been killed in one move earlier. He knew that he was still lacking in this kind of battle. However, he had just become a Mystique Venerable One and had yet to fully adapt to his new identity. He did not dare to disobey the two of them, so he could only chase after them.
Although Wei Yi was wary of the Evil God, facing the pressure of the Shangchen trio, he didn't have the time to think about it. He only knew that he couldn't stop now. Otherwise, he would be destroyed in a few breaths of time. Therefore, he sped up his escape.
How could Lian Qiang and Cai Xun let him go so easily? The instant he charged out, two sacred arts landed on his body one after another.
These two spells were actually the most ordinary sealing spells. They didn't use much strength and didn't have much effect. If Wei Yi ignored them, he could have broken free by increasing his escape force.
However, they were certain that Wei Zheng would definitely use the Art of Extrication to dispel it, because in such an urgent situation, he would not be able to distinguish it carefully. This was an inevitable choice. Their more brilliant method was to hide behind him and wait for him to dispel it before making a move. They would be able to stop him once again.
The reality was just as they had guessed. Wei Yi had no choice at all. He immediately made a move to break free of the two spells. When he broke free, he knew that he had fallen into a trap.
This wasn't because his battle techniques weren't good enough, nor was it because he lacked experience. It was because when facing two people of the same cultivation level, who were experienced and didn't lose to him, there was actually very little room for him to use.
At this time, he also expected that these two people would definitely have a backup plan. Sure enough, two more spells landed on him. He had no choice but to break free of them again.
However, in a hurry, he only managed to break free of one of the spells. This was already quite a good method, enough to show that he was superior to others. However, he didn't have time to break free of the other spell. His body couldn't help but stop, and his previous advantage of escaping suddenly disappeared.
However, there was still a chance. Lian Qiang and Cai Xun were still afraid that he would die together with them. They didn't want to take the risk, so they didn't rush forward. At this moment, it was still Yuan Siyong who went to the front to block him. This gave him a chance to break free.
After he realized this, he flicked his sleeve and immediately slashed out a smooth mirror-like Qi Slash.
Although Yuan Siyong was a newly ascended Mystique Venerable One, he was not a simple-minded person to have cultivated to such a level. After the previous incident, he had learned his lesson. Although he was in front, he did not block the path directly. Instead, he moved slightly to the side and did not move forward with his body. He only used the visualization diagram to block the path.
Wei Yi was very experienced. He immediately grasped the subtle psychological changes in Yuan Siyong's actions. He immediately thought of a countermeasure. He used his Fa Li and the Clear Light Slash turned from one to twelve. With him as the center, they flew out in all directions.
Lian Qiang and Cai Xun had both seen the power of this killing move. They hurriedly retreated. In their minds, since Wei Yi had used this kind of spell, it would be difficult for him to increase his speed to escape. They would wait for the spell to fade away, then go forward to deal with him.
However, they discovered that something was wrong, because Wei Zheng's breath had once again disappeared from its original position. It turned out that among the Clear Light Qi Slashes that he had released, the one that had rushed forward was actually his own magical instrument. After using his magical ability, he actually borrowed the instrument to save people, teleporting through the air, and once again leaping out of the battle circle!
When Lian Qiang and Cai Xun saw that Yuan Si didn't try to stop them and instead made way for them, they couldn't help but curse him for being stupid. He couldn't even see through such a small trick and wasted the opportunity they had created for him.
However, they didn't think about it. If Yuan Siyong really went forward, Wei Yi, who was forced into a dead end, would not hesitate to die together with him. At that time, they wouldn't be the ones who would be injured.
If they were injured and came back after a few decades, Yuan Siyong would really be defeated on the spot. Yuan Siyong was also a person with his own thoughts. Even if he saw the problem, how could he really send himself to death?
It could be said that the battle strategy of both sides was not wrong. However, when it came to the specific action, it was because the Shangchen side didn't have the same thoughts. Therefore, there was a flaw. If they were all of one mind, then Wei Yi wouldn't be able to withstand more than a few moves. He might not even have the chance to escape.
Although Wei Yi succeeded in escaping again and gained a few more breaths of time, he still had a lingering feeling in his heart. However, he couldn't tell what it was.
At this moment, the white-clothed cultivator who was watching the battle from afar suddenly raised his head. The third eye between his eyebrows flashed rapidly. He smiled slightly and said, "Found it."
In the next moment, a wisp of his Qi appeared in front of a swirling mass of green smoke. This was where Wei Yi's Divine Qi was located!
On the Qingqiong Earth Observatory, Lin Tingzhi continued to use his Dharma. The water curtain in front of him became slightly clearer, but it soon became blurry again.
However, this moment was enough for him to do what he wanted.
With a turn of his Dharma, seven spiritual lights descended to the lower realm. The seven Xuan Zun who had been waiting in the void for a long time were directly sent to where Wei Yi was.
He turned to Daoist Zhan Kong beside him and said, "That Evil God seems to have a teleportation technique. I'll have to trouble you later."
Zhan Kong nodded and said, "Lin Tingzhi, don't worry. Since this Evil God has appeared, he won't be able to escape."
This time, they had set up such a big formation not for fun, but to catch the Evil God and the cultivators who might come to Shangchen's aid in one fell swoop.
The Yuandu Mysterious Diagram had already absorbed the aura of the Evil Avatar. Even if the magic treasure needed time to rotate, as long as someone arrived in time, they would be able to stop it. Once that happened, they would not be able to escape successfully.
Lin Tingzhi thought for a moment and called Ming Zhou over. He said, "Go and invite Zhang Shouzheng here."
In the Shouzheng Palace, Zhang Yu saw that the Shangchen cultivators outside still did not move, so he did not look at them anymore. He sat in the main hall, adjusting his Qi and nourishing his two swords, ready to attack at any time.
There was a flash of light below the hall, and Ming Zhou appeared there. He cupped his hands and said, "Zhang Shouzheng, Lin Tingzhi, please invite Shouzheng to the observatory to watch the battle."
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "Got it."
With a thought, he put away his two swords and flew into the light of heart. Then, he shook his sleeves and stood up from his seat. He walked out of the Shouzheng Palace and appeared on the observatory after passing through a crack of light.
