On the white jade arena …
The tense atmosphere had already reached its peak.
Waves of aura presences that belonged only to Saints surged into the sky. One side was in groups of eight, while the other side was in groups of sixteen. Each side was in a confrontation.
When experts fought, they would first use their aura to suppress the opponent. When one side was no match, they would immediately launch an attack to seize the initiative. This was a common tactic.
Both sides' aura presences clashed with each other and were actually in a stalemate.
This situation didn't last for too long.
One of the low-level saints from the Sacred Gate moved his lips slightly as though he was transmitting a message.
Immediately after, the heavenly dao emissary and the 16 saints from the Sacred Gate actually split their aura presences into two.
The two auras turned into two giant dragons, one on the left and one on the right. They attacked the eight people from the Heaven Responding Sect from two different directions.
The eight people's expressions didn't change as they reacted. They also split their aura presences into two to deal with the enemy's attack.
Boom! Boom! Two deafening sounds echoed on the white jade arena.
The entire arena was shaking.
Within the arena, the space was shattered. The martial artists outside couldn't even see the scene inside clearly.
Many of the Profound Saint Realm martial artists had pale faces and nearly fell from the sky.
Even though they were far away from each other, the clash of auras between Saint Realm experts still made them feel a terrifying pressure.
"Is this a battle between Saint Monarchs?
Too terrifying! We are half-step saints. Just by watching from the side, we already feel a sense of suffocation. If we were to be affected, we would probably be turned into dust in an instant! "
"Just now, it was just a clash of aura presences, but it was already so powerful.
When the real fight starts later, it will probably be like the end of the world. "
The spectating martial artists of the major forces, even the martial artists of the four great forces, began to discuss animatedly.
They were extremely excited to be able to see saint level martial artists engaging in a group battle.
"Who do you think will seize the initiative in that clash of aura presences?"
"Isn't that obvious?
One side has 16 low-level saints while the other side only has eight. It is obvious that the heavenly dao emissary and the Sacred Gate will definitely suppress the Heaven Responding Sect. "
"Once they lose the initiative, they will fall behind.
This time, Ying Tianzong will definitely lose! "
The voices of discussion were in support of the Heavenly Dao Emissary and the Sacred Gate.
Gu Xuan listened for a long time, but he did not hear anyone supporting Ying Tianzong.
Even Half-saint Withered Grass, who had been lying on the ground pretending to be dead, didn't say anything good about Ying Tianzong.
This made Gu Xuan very displeased, and he glared fiercely at Half-Saint Withered Grass in the distance.
Half-saint Withered Grass quivered when he was glared at.
"I think Ying Tianzong will win!"
Half-saint Withered Grass shouted.
Unfortunately, as soon as he finished speaking, fists flew toward Half-Saint Withered Grass.
"Get lost, you unsociable thing!"
"Ying Tian Sect's lackey, die!"
Half-saint Withered Grass fled.
The corners of Gu Xuan's mouth twitched.
Those snobbish fellows, just wait for Ying Tianzong to ruthlessly slap their faces! On the white jade arena, the space that had been distorted due to the collision of auras finally returned to normal.
Seeing the situation in the arena, the cultivators who were originally clamoring all quieted down and became quiet for a moment.
Then, there was another uproar.
"How is this possible?"
Saint Shuo Yue's eyes were filled with surprise.
Saint Zhuge frowned. Obviously, this situation was out of his expectations.
In the collision of auras, the eight people from Ying Tianzong were actually evenly matched with the Heavenly Law Emissary and the 16 people from the Sacred Gate! Both sides were still in a stalemate! The auras from both sides were still contending with each other, and there was no sign of it stopping.
No one had expected this result.
The combined power of 16 Saints was actually unable to suppress the eight people from Ying Tianzong and gain any advantage.
Otherwise, the 16 Saints would have launched a real attack and firmly seized the opportunity to kill the enemy.
There was only one reason why they didn't do so. They simply didn't have the opportunity to seize the opportunity! "Humph! Don't compete with auras anymore. The auras of these fellows are purer and more perfect than ours when combined.
Let's start the battle directly. Split the eight of them into one and defeat them one by one! "
The cultivator who came up with the idea of splitting his aura into two to launch an attack spoke in a commanding tone.
The other 15 Saints obeyed and withdrew their auras.
The 16 Saints executed their killer moves one after another and attacked the eight people from Ying Tianzong.
They wanted to first separate the eight people from Ying Tianzong who were gathered together! For a moment, a total of 24 low-level saints actually started a chaotic close combat battle.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Shadows of fists and legs, as well as various short weapons and treasures, split into layers of illusions.
In an instant, figures flickered and flew in all directions.
Fists and legs collided, weapons collided, and the sound of energy clashing could be heard incessantly.
The space above the white jade platform was even more shattered. Apart from Gu Xuan, Saint Venerable Water, and a few other big shots, no one could see clearly who was fighting.
Even the four guards of Wind Sweeping Building, Swallowing Spirit, Golden Leech, and the others were dazzled and couldn't see clearly.
The stalemate of the battle was evident.
Gu Xuan's gaze landed on one of the Saints from the Sacred Gate who was participating in the battle.
That Saint was the one who had given out two consecutive orders.
Gu Xuan knew that person. It was Mister Liu, who was forcefully taken in as a spirit pet during the Saint Ranking Tournament.
There were three other people standing beside Mister Liu.
Two of them were also Gu Xuan's spirit pets, Lu Ming and the Crocodile Dragon King.
However, at this moment, the three of them were completely different from the three who had become Xuan Xuan's spiritual pets.
When they appeared, Gu Xuan purposely made eye contact with them.
Unfortunately, the three of them didn't have any respect in their eyes when they saw him. It was as if Gu Xuan was just a stranger.
It was similar to Xiong Ba Huang, who had become one of the four guards of Wind Sweeping Building but didn't participate in the battle.
This made Gu Xuan even more vigilant and curious about the so-called Sacred Gate.
Something must have happened after the Saint Ranking Tournament ended a hundred years ago. Otherwise, Xiong Ba Huang and the others, who were once his spirit pets, wouldn't have no respect for him.
The last of the three people beside Mister Liu didn't have much interaction with Gu Xuan, but he was also a transformed ferocious beast who had obtained the final ranking in the Saint Ranking Tournament. He was called the Four-headed Dragon.
The Four-headed Dragon had transformed into a human form. He only had one head, but there were three sarcomas on his forehead. One could vaguely see his eyes, ears, mouth, and nose. Obviously, they were transformed from his other three heads.
These four people were the strongest among the sixteen Saints on the side of the Heavenly Path Emissary and the Sacred Gate. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them the core.
Mister Liu was the core of the core.
Although they were all fighting the enemy, the other three were intentionally or unintentionally protecting Mister Liu.
"What secrets does Mister Liu have?"
Gu Xuan thought to himself.
It was unusual for a member of the Sacred Gate to be able to command the Heavenly Path Emissary instead of being commanded by the Heavenly Path Emissary.
Just as Gu Xuan was observing Mister Liu, Mister Liu took out a battle flag.
"The battlefield has been divided. Next, it's time for the slaughter!"
He waved the battle flag fiercely. Eight Hexagram Arrays appeared at the feet of the eight people from Ying Tianzong at the same time.
