"This … this … this …" After saying the word 'no' three times in a row, Fourth Palace Master Buze rubbed his eyes like a fool. When he looked again, he realized that the Vermillion Bird was still standing on the shoulder of the young man in front. "How is this possible, Big Brother? Is he touching the Vermillion Bird? How can he touch the Vermilion Bird? "
Fourth Hallmaster Bu Ze, the furious Second Hallmaster Xiu Hong, and the twelve half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods were all dumbfounded at this moment. Even Lord Hallmaster Xi Hao was dumbfounded.
They had imagined countless scenarios where they would fight with the martial artists in Long An Star Palace. They would either directly attack, fight as soon as they arrived, or have both sides curse at each other. However, they had never thought that the other party would appear in such a way that would leave them dumbfounded.
That's right, they were all dumbfounded.
Whether it was the three Hallmasters of the Star Gauze Temple or the twelve half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods, regardless of their cultivation base, they were all knowledgeable at their level.
All of them had more or less heard of the Vermilion Bird. The concept of the Vermilion Bird being noble and otherworldly was deeply ingrained in their minds.
Now that they suddenly saw the legendary Vermilion Bird standing on the shoulder of a person, and the worst part was that it allowed the person to touch it, their eyeballs were about to pop out.
"Yes … how is this possible?" Lord Hallmaster Xi Hao replied subconsciously before he suddenly realized. He raised his eyebrows and shouted, "What do you mean how is this possible? Maybe that fire bird isn't the Vermilion Bird and we mistook it for the wrong person?"
Although Lord Hallmaster Xi Hao realized it quickly, it was too late. The half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods were already shocked and were in a daze. When they saw that the three Hallmasters were also shocked, fear rose in their hearts and they began to retreat.
This was the legendary Vermilion Bird. Originally, everyone thought that the Vermilion Bird was going to leave and was neutral. However, now that it had suddenly become a member of the other party's camp, it immediately became hostile. How could they not be afraid?
This was the story of a martial artist who had idolized a legendary existence since he was young. Then, one day, when he was fighting, he discovered that the idol he had idolized since he was young had suddenly become his enemy, and he was even right in front of him.
Not to mention the strength of this idol, that kind of shocking feeling, that kind of psychological blow, that kind of psychological pressure, was absolutely huge to the extreme.
For example, the Vermilion Bird in front of them had suddenly become a member of the enemy camp. For a moment, some of the half-step Zhou Tian Gods even had the vague idea of taking advantage of the chaos to escape. They really didn't have the confidence to fight against this legendary divine bird.
Even if most people didn't have the thought of running away, their morale was greatly affected. Their eyes were filled with uncertainty. As a result, the warriors from the Star Gauze Divine Palace were thrown into disarray. More than half of the aura that they had gathered had dissipated.
Weakening before the battle!
The First Palace Master, Xi Hao, had only realized something when he saw the terrified expressions on the warriors' faces. He suddenly spoke up, but it was already too late.
"Damn it!" The First Palace Master, Xi Hao, clenched his fists tightly. He forced himself to reveal a calm expression and said loudly, "Everyone, there's no need to be afraid. Even if this Fire Bird is a real Vermilion Bird, this Vermilion Bird only has the cultivation of an intermediate Zhou Tianshen Envoy. Regardless of whether it's me or my second brother, Xiu Hong, our cultivation has already reached the intermediate Zhou Tianshen Envoy or above. There's no problem for us to take on this Vermilion Bird's attack.
Everyone, don't worry. Just fight with all your might. One of us three brothers will take on this Vermilion Bird. "
The First Palace Master, Xi Hao's mind was very sharp. He knew that if he didn't do something, the twelve half-step Zhou Tian Gods would only think about guarding against the Vermilion Bird or how to save their lives. They wouldn't even have the heart to fight. They would already be defeated before the battle even started.
That was why the First Palace Master, Xi Hao, promised that they would take on the Vermilion Bird's attack.
Of course, there was another reason for this. When all the warriors in the Long An Star Palace appeared, the First Palace Master, Xi Hao sensed a little. Other than the Vermilion Bird and the Fire God Physique, there was another warrior whose aura was like an unsheathed sword. He felt a sense of dread.
Furthermore, according to the First Palace Master, Xi Hao sensed that the warrior's cultivation seemed to have broken through the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous God Physique and was faintly stepping into the Zhou Tian Righteous God Physique. However, it wasn't very clear.
Even so, the other party's peak strength was already able to contend against them. To be honest, the three brothers of the Star Gauze Palace were the peak battle strength of their side. The three Zhou Tianshen Envoys.
However, the other party's strength was needless to say. The Vermilion Bird was the brother that made the three brothers feel dread. The Zhou Tian Fire God Physique that was snatched away right under their noses had now become someone else's clone. Even if the soul and flesh fusion was uncertain, their battle strength was not to be underestimated. One of the three brothers had to deal with them carefully.
Now, there was another warrior that they sensed was extremely dangerous. One of the three brothers had to deal with them with all their strength. As a result, the peak battle strength was considered to be tied. Under the situation where the peak battle strength was undecided, the outcome of this battle would depend on the battle strength of the half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods.
Fortunately, there were a total of twelve half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods from the Star Gauze Palace. Including the two juniors from the Ying Family, there were a total of fourteen warriors.
As for the warriors that came out of the Star Gauze Palace, other than the three peak battle strength, there were still eleven warriors. Among them, there were only nine half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods. Their side could be considered to have the upper hand.
If one or two half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods from their side fought hard, they might be able to take down the Long An Star Palace quickly. However, under the current situation where everyone was at ease, it was too difficult. Furthermore, they might even lose.
Thinking about this, Head Palace Master Xi Hao turned around and said, "The three of us will take on the peak battle strength of the other side. The rest of the remaining enemies will depend on you guys. Everyone, don't worry. From the looks of it, they have six or seven or even eight God Sealing Stones.
As long as you help me take down the Long An Star Palace, and in the future, all of you can join the Star Gauze Palace as Guardians. Then, I can apply for a few more God Sealing Stones from the higher-ups. Not only will I guarantee that everyone participating in today's battle will have a God Sealing Stone, you can also enter the Heavenly Shrine of the Star Gauze Palace to comprehend and become a True God! "
With a quick thought, Head Palace Master Xi Hao suddenly made a big offer. As the saying goes, when there's a great reward, there will be brave men. This logic was applicable everywhere.
However, when he said this, Head Palace Master Xi Hao, Second Palace Master Xiu Hong, and Fourth Palace Master Bu Ze's eyes flashed with a strange light. This was because they understood that although they said it nicely, it was hard to say how many of them would die in the end.
Moreover, even if there were more cultivators who survived, there would still be some who would be injured. At that time, it wouldn't be strange for a few who were seriously injured to die. Otherwise, if more than a dozen real Zhou Tian Righteous Gods appeared out of thin air in the Long An Boundary without any restrictions, how could they dominate the world?
Of course, this was just their usual style of doing things. Everything would have to wait until they got to the Long An Star Palace.
"Head Palace Master, is this true?" However, the 12 half-step Heavenly Cycle Righteous Gods were all convinced. This was especially so when the two cultivators of the same status as them were sent into the Dragon's Peace Star Palace. As for Zhangsun Tong, he was the only one left, so he was even more convinced.
Zhangsun Tong already felt that he was being looked down upon. After looking at the other seven, why didn't they look for him? This made Zhangsun Tong hold back a breath of resentment. This was also the reason why he stayed behind after being persuaded by Fourth Palace Master Bu Ze.
"Zhangsun Tong, do you think this old man is joking?" Head Palace Master Xi Hao replied with a cold expression.
"Alright, with Head Palace Master's promise, I, Zhangsun Tong, will do my best today." After shouting, Zhangsun Tong coldly glanced at the people behind him and shouted, "The God Sealing Stone that everyone has been waiting for is right in front of you. If we don't fight now, when will we?"
"Yes, if we don't fight now, when will we?" Head Palace Master Xi Hao's promise, with Zhangsun Tong's amplification and Lord Ying Kun's shouting, suddenly made the twelve half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods happy and fierce.
After waiting for a few hundred years, wasn't it all for today?
If they don't fight now, when will they?
Miraculously, with just a few words from the First Palace Master, Xi Hao, the hearts of these people, which had originally scattered, suddenly gathered together. Their killing intent soared into the sky once again, causing Ling Dong, who had just revealed a happy expression, to frown.
"These people from the Star Luo Temple are not simple!" Ling Dong murmured softly.
To be honest, it was Ling Dong who arranged for the Vermillion Bird to stand on his shoulder and for him to stroke this legendary divine bird. Ling Dong wanted to gain the upper hand by a show of strength.
Ling Dong wanted to gain the upper hand by a show of strength and then take drastic measures to make these people from the Star Luo Temple become light mark commanders. Now it seemed that he had to put in some effort.
"Ling Dong greets the seniors!" Ling Dong first greeted them from afar.
"Ling? You're the one with the surname Ling who stole our Zhou Tian Fire God Physique? " Ling Dong's greeting instantly made Second Palace Master Xiu Hong furious. If Head Palace Master Xi Hao had not stopped him, Second Palace Master Xiu Hong would have had the impulse to pounce on Ling Dong and kill him.
"Steal? Does the Fire God Physique in the belly of the mountain belong to your family? " Ling Dong glanced sideways at Second Palace Master Xiu Hong. With a glance, a light flashed in his hand and a green wooden box appeared in his hand.
In the next instant, Ling Dong took the initiative to open the green wooden box. A boundless and ancient aura rapidly spread out, startling the half-step Heavenly Cycle Dao Gods opposite him into revealing a strange light in their eyes.
"God Sealing Stone!"
"It's the God Sealing Stone!"
"God, this is the legendary God Sealing Stone!" The eyes of the twelve half-step Zhou Tian Righteous Gods on the opposite side all gathered on the God Sealing Stone in an instant.
The faces of the three Palace Masters of the Star Luo Temple suddenly became abnormally ugly. Head Palace Master Xi Hao seemed to have thought of something and his face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He moved his eyes and gently signaled to Second Palace Master Xiu Hong. The latter's eyes immediately flashed with a fierce light.
"To tell you the truth, I still have this God Sealing Stone. As long as you are willing to come to me and make a Divine Soul Oath to help me do a few things, this God Sealing Stone will be …"
"This bastard is indeed playing this game, Second Brother!" Head Palace Master Xi Hao shouted softly. Almost at the same time, a sinister smile appeared on Second Palace Master Xiu Hong's face.
At the same time, Ling Dong, who was playing this game of bribery, suddenly felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart. It was as if he was being stared at by a poisonous snake.
