Gu Xuan smiled faintly and glanced at Blazing Heaven.
Her face was also full of surprise. Although she had not seen how powerful Ming Yi's seven people's combined battle formation was, she could guess some clues just by looking at Ming Ling's ugly expression.
Elder Ming's strength actually shocked Ming Ling.
Even when she fought with Ming Ling, he looked as if he had already expected her strength.
But now, he was actually shocked by Elder Ming's strength?
My strength and Elder Ming's should be on par. If I don't use the power of law given to me by the Territorial Lord, the chance of winning is only fifty percent.
But looking at Ming Ling's appearance, could it be that Elder Ming's strength has already surpassed mine?
Blazing Heaven pondered in his heart.
"Blazing Heaven, help me keep an eye on Ming Ling. I'll accept this Sky Burying Gold Coffin.
Don't worry, I won't forget your share of this credit. "
The corners of Gu Xuan's mouth curled up. While on guard, he flew towards the Sky Burying Gold Coffin.
Killing intent flashed in Ming Ling's eyes.
"No matter how strong you are, I won't give you this Sky Burying Gold Coffin!"
He slapped out a palm. A towering giant palm descended from the sky and slapped towards Gu Xuan's head.
Gu Xuan's face changed slightly.
He never thought that Ming Ling would make a move just like that. Was the shock just now fake?
Even if you want to fight, you have to weigh your own strength. You're already injured, and there are still two cultivators of the same level as you on our side. If you attack just because you want to, aren't you just courting death?
Gu Xuan cursed in his heart. According to normal logic, Ming Ling should be afraid of him.
This was simply not playing cards according to the rules!
Was all the pretentiousness he put on before for nothing?!
Gu Xuan felt very tired. That towering giant palm was simply like a small mountain pressing down. For a martial artist at the peak of the Sage Realm, this small mountain would at most hinder the other party's movement. It was not of much use.
But to Gu Xuan, this towering giant palm was simply trying to take his life!
For a martial artist at the peak of the Sage Realm, a casual attack could kill a mid-level Sage Realm martial artist.
With Gu Xuan's current combat strength, if he went all out, he would only be comparable to a top Intermediate Saint Realm cultivator.
He couldn't even take down a high-level Saint Realm martial artist, let alone a peak Saint Realm martial artist.
Therefore, there was only one thought in Gu Xuan's mind — Hide!
But this was only a casual strike of Ming Ling's. Logically speaking, he should have blocked it with a casual strike of his palm as well. Dodging like this was too suspicious.
However, the situation was stronger than the person. It was impossible to block it. It was impossible to block it in this lifetime. Only by dodging could he preserve his life.
"So be it."
Gu Xuan was at his wit's end. He took a step into the void and prepared to dodge to the side.
Right at this moment, Blazing Heaven actually flew over.
"You go get the Sky Burying Golden Coffin. Leave Ming Ling's attack to me!"
Gu Xuan was overjoyed. This Blazing Heaven was simply sending charcoal in the snow. If it weren't for the fact that they had different standpoints, they could have become friends!
Gu Xuan took advantage of this opportunity to speed up towards the Sky Burying Golden Coffin, ignoring the giant palm that was descending.
Since Blazing Heaven said that she would help him deal with it, she would definitely be able to block it.
After all, she was still an expert who had fought to a draw with Ming Ling.
Boom!
Blazing Heaven struck out with his palm and neutralized Ming Ling's attack.
On the Middle Yuan Region warship, the three high-level Saint Stage cultivators flew towards Gu Xuan.
"Elder, we're here to help you!"
Swoosh swoosh swoosh!
The three of them surrounded the Sky Burying Golden Coffin from three different directions.
At this moment, Blazing Heaven also rapidly flew down from above Gu Xuan's head.
"Quick, keep the Sky Burying Golden Coffin! Ming Ling is not far from you! "
Blazing Heaven reminded.
"No problem!"
The corners of Gu Xuan's mouth curved into a smile. He was now less than a foot away from the Sky Burying Golden Coffin. In an instant, he would be able to keep it in the Ancient Flame Demon Mansion.
However, Gu Xuan's eyelids suddenly twitched at this moment.
A feeling of extreme danger spontaneously rose in his heart.
Right now, he had a feeling that if he dared to touch the Sky Burying Golden Coffin, his death would be imminent.
This threat didn't come from the Sky Burying Golden Coffin, but from above!
Gu Xuan's pupils suddenly shrank.
He abruptly raised his head and saw Li Tian sneering as he silently launched an attack on him.
The sword in her hand was less than ten feet away from him!
And this wasn't the only danger!
The three high-level Saint Stage cultivators who had shouted that they wanted to help Gu Xuan also revealed murderous intent in their eyes as they attacked Gu Xuan.
At this moment, Gu Xuan's heart sank to the bottom.
These four people weren't here to help him. Their real goal was to kill him!
The reason Blazing Heaven had helped him block that palm strike was because she knew that Ming Ling's palm strike wouldn't be able to kill him!
Therefore, she had deliberately blocked that palm strike for him in order to make him lose his vigilance and kill him with her own hands!
He had been too naive about everything!
The corners of Blazing Heaven's mouth curved into a cold smile as a voice transmission instantly exploded in Gu Xuan's mind.
"Did you think that your disguise as Elder was flawless?
But you were too careless. Or rather, your understanding of Elder is too little.
Elder has never asked me for help! He wouldn't even say that he wants to share the credit with me!
He can't wait for me to die. Moreover, he has never concealed it!
So, you imposter, die! "
The sword in Blazing Heaven's hand was only an inch away from Gu Xuan's head.
At the same time, the three fists of the three high-level Saint Stage cultivators were less than two feet away from Gu Xuan.
Being ambushed by these four people, even if it was a peak Saint Stage cultivator, there would only be one outcome — death.
Gu Xuan's entire body released golden light. The power of the third mystery of the Nine Mystery War Body had been fully released.
Billowing Saint Power also surged around his body, forming layers upon layers of protective barriers.
Gu Xuan's face was still hidden under the fog and couldn't be seen clearly.
However, if the fog was removed, one would discover that Gu Xuan's originally handsome face had become extremely ferocious.
These defensive measures were almost automatically executed by instinct.
Gu Xuan's mind was completely blank now.
A peak Saint Stage cultivator and three high-level Saint Stage cultivators joined forces to launch a sneak attack. No one could stop them.
Even if he wanted to hide, it was too late now!
Could it be that he was really going to die here this time?
Could it be that he really had no other way this time?
A feeling of despair shrouded Gu Xuan's heart.
He couldn't block it. No matter what, he couldn't block the attacks of Blazing Heaven and the other three.
However, he was unwilling to accept this!
How could he die?
He still had family, lovers, and friends. They were all waiting for him. How could he die?
A teardrop fell from the corner of Gu Xuan's eye.
