Submerged

The sky was a clear blue, without a single cloud. Suddenly, streaks of light flashed by at incredible speed; it was the Huchen Sect support Fleet led by Yun Chenzi.

On the warship, Yun Chenzi stood with his hands behind his back and instructed, "Tell the disciples below to be on high alert. Since the Wushang Hall has taken action, it's definitely not a small matter. Also, that beast hiding in the shadows may have already joined forces with the Wushang Hall to deal with my Huchen Sect."

Upon hearing this, the elders behind him nodded in agreement, their eyes filled with worry and gloom.

That mysterious cultivator had already caused chaos in their Huchen Sect, making the sect's higher-ups extremely anxious. Now, with the arrival of the Wushang Hall, if things aren't handled properly, the sect might suffer serious damage.

Yun Chenzi was also very worried, but as the leader, he had to keep his mind steady so that his subordinates wouldn't have any wild thoughts. If he couldn't even calm his mind, then there would be no morale at all.

"Don't worry, everyone. Even if that beast joins forces with the Wushang Hall, it's nothing. What troubles us most about that guy is his elusive nature; we can't find him. Once he teams up with the Wushang Hall and shows himself, he'll be easier to deal with. We just need to seize the opportunity to kill him!"

Upon hearing this, the gloom in the elders' eyes dissipated slightly. Although they were still worried, at least their minds calmed down.

Seeing this, Yun Chenzi breathed a slight sigh of relief. As long as things didn't fall into chaos internally, everything else was a minor matter. Their Huchen Sect had weathered many storms and hardships to get to where they were today, and he believed that they would definitely be able to overcome this one as well.

However, at that moment, a huge net suddenly appeared in the sky, covering the entire area. Countless golden and red Array Mark wriggled and intertwined, forming a massive Formation that covered thousands of miles.

This Formation did not belong to Yang Tianyou, but was provided by the Wushang Hall. It was a top-grade Eighth Tier array called the Heaven-Prison Star Cage Formation. It was best at binding and could also seal space to a certain extent, which made Yang Tianyou very envious. He decided to find an opportunity to exchange this Formation Disc for other resources after the cooperation ended.

"Hmph, they've come as expected. As planned, activate the attack Formation at full power and break through this Formation barrier!" Yun Chenzi ordered.

As soon as the words fell, the warship, which was already poised to strike, suddenly burst into a beam of light that shot into the sky. One after another, deadly and offensive spells and Law Technique Divine Abilities, trailing trails of light, swept across the sky and struck Yang Tianyou and the cultivators from the Wushang Hall.

"You hold them off, I'll attack!" Yang Tianyou gave the order, then transformed into a colossal giant, towering over the heavens and the earth, his eyes shining like the sun and moon.

Instead of using his signature Blade Dao techniques, he activated the White Emperor Indestructible Body. Starlight descended from the sky, showering his body and draping him in a magnificent and mysterious silver armor. Yang Tianyou's face was also shrouded in yellow mist formed by Chains of Karma and effect, making him seem like an unfathomable fog.

"I didn't expect this person to be Body Cultivator as well!" The Nascent Body Integration Cultivator leading the Wushang Hall's team had a glint in his eyes. Their Wushang Hall was famous for its Body Cultivators, and they were best at using their bare hands to resist attacks from Spirit Treasures and Divine Ability. Seeing that Yang Tianyou also had this fighting style, he couldn't help but feel a sense of goodwill towards him.

Boom!

The attack from the Huchen Sect arrived, but the Wushang Hall was already prepared. The warship's Defensive Formation formed a thick and vast iron wall, steadily blocking all the attacks.

Yang Tianyou, on the other hand, strode towards the Huchen Sect's side.

Two black vortexes condensed on his fists, emanating a desolate and chilling aura— the Power of Annihilation.

At the same time, the Origin Power the Grotto Heaven's origin was also added to his body. The Seven-Star Spirit-Raising Formation was activated, and his aura was like the rising Rising Sun, radiating endless light and heat, almost reaching the level of a Bandit Cultivator. Yun Chenzi was shocked to see this, as this person's strength was even greater than the sect had estimated.

"Activate all Defensive Formations! Elders of the Body Integration, join me in this attack!"

Yun Chenzi let out a long roar and summoned his most prized Spirit Treasure, a vast white river with icebergs floating within it, radiating an exceptionally cold aura.

The Ice River swept across the sky like a white jade belt, freezing everything in its path.

A chill swept over him, but Yang Tianyou remained unfazed. The Power of Annihilation was a peculiar force derived from the reversal of Primordial Power, capable of shattering all things in the world with extreme destructiveness. The moment the annihilation vortex collided with the Ice River, the Ice River shattered, and icebergs were sent flying. Yang Tianyou's fist, like a mountain collapsing, carried a crushing and domineering force, shattering the Formation Shield of an Eighth Tier warship with unstoppable momentum. The terrifying power contained in his fist, with just a slight tremor, directly shattered the bodies and souls of thousands of cultivators, turning them into dust that scattered and fell to the ground.

Such a terrifying punch sent shivers down Yun Chenzi's spine. He couldn't help but think about the consequences if he were hit so solidly...

After shattering an Eighth Tier warship with a single punch, Yang Tianyou's fist contained all its power. However, the Primordial Power stored in the Great White Grotto Heaven was still plentiful, and the Grotto Heaven's origin was also abundant. Yang Tianyou, with just a thought, two brand-new annihilation vortexes reappeared.

Seeing this, Yun Chenzi's face turned green. He finally understood why Longqing True Person died so quickly. Not to mention the Body Integration Middle Stage, even a Body Integration Late Stage Realm cultivator would be annihilated on the spot by such a terrifying attack. What's even more terrifying is that this kind of attack can be launched continuously, which is really unreasonable.

"What kind of Divine Ability is this?" While manipulating the Spirit Treasure Ice River to assist the Huchen Sect's Fleet in resisting the two-pronged attack from the Wushang Hall and Yang Tianyou, Yun Chenzi's mind was racing. Streams of information flowed through his mind, and countless familiar and well-known Divine Ability names flowed by, but he did not find any similar supernatural Divine Ability.

"Could it be a special Spirit Treasure?" Yun Chenzi wondered again, his heart filled with doubt and uncertainty. Where did this peculiar power come from, and why did it have such formidable destructive power? If it weren't for this energy directly disrupting and tearing the Array Mark the moment it came into contact with the Formation barrier, this Eighth Tier warship would never have been damaged so easily.

Just as Yun Chenzi was lost in thought, Yang Tianyou's attack came again.

The giant, whose size rivaled that of Heroic Peaks, trembled with every movement, a gale swirling around his waist, and his breath produced Lei Ming roar, his power utterly terrifying.

Yun Chenzi's expression was solemn. He didn't want to fight Yang Tianyou head-on, but at the moment, he was the only Great Perfection cultivator Body Integration the Huchen Sect's side. If the others went up to fight Yang Tianyou, it would be suicide. Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and block the attack from Yang Tianyou. The Power of Annihilation collided with the Ice River Spirit Treasure. In just a few moments, the Artifact Spirit of the Ice River Spirit Treasure let out miserable howls, being tormented by this destructive power.

Despite his heartache, Yun Chenzi knew that if Ice River Spirit Treasure didn't step in, he would be the one facing this strange power. So he had no choice but to continue urging Spirit Treasure to fight Yang Tianyou.

The battle between the two was the most intense on the battlefield. Wherever they passed, the sky was frozen and the Power of Annihilation swept across the universe, shattering space itself. Sometimes they fought in the depths of the void, and sometimes they returned to it, unleashing their Divine Ability as if they were free.

However, Yang Tianyou was clearly stronger, and Yun Chenzi gradually couldn't hold on any longer. He realized this and had no choice but to use his trump card.

He reached out and summoned a pale blue Talisman in his palm. The densely packed runes on it were extremely complex and profound, outlining a sky-blue vertical pupil. The gaze in the pupil was cold and chilling, making one's hair stand on end.

"Raging Wind Divine Eye Talisman!" Yun Chenzi's Law Power surged like a raging river, pouring into the Talisman. With a whoosh, the Talisman transformed into a beam of azure Azure Light, soaring into the sky, and then evolved into a gigantic divine eye that stretched across the Firmament.

Countless Wind Blades shot out from this divine eye, endless and unstoppable.

Where the Wind Blades passed, the earth cracked, and narrow black fissures appeared in the sky. Yang Tianyou's gaze turned solemn. "Ninth-Tier Talisman?"

Such terrifying power is definitely not an attack at the Body Integration Level. Even Yang Tianyou can only get infinitely close to the power of the Tribulation Transcendence level, but there is still a clearly visible crack between the two.

However, he brought the Nine-Dragon Heaven-Burning Furnace with him this time, which could completely block this attack.

But Yang Tianyou didn't do that; he did everything himself. What would be the point of the Wushang Hall then?

In a flash, Yang Tianyou found himself standing alongside the Wushang Hall's Fleet.

The leader of the Wushang Hall, a Nascent Body Integration Cultivator, turned green with rage, his eyes practically screaming, "Don't come any closer!" But Yang Tianyou didn't care. He had no connection with the Wushang Hall, only a cooperative relationship. He had already provided intelligence and combat power to hold off Yun Chenzi; he had done more than enough. Could he really withstand another attack from Tribulation Transcendence level Talisman? It was best not to expose the Nine-Dragon Heaven-Burning Furnace. A trump card is only meaningful if it's hidden, isn't it?

"Daoist Friends, quickly block this Divine Wind!" shouted the Nascent Body Integration Cultivator from the Wushang Hall.

Unexpectedly, Yang Tianyou looked solemn and said, "This Ninth-Tier Talisman truly powerful. I can't withstand it alone. Let's work together!"

Upon hearing this, a conflicted look flashed in the eyes of the Body Integration Cultivator. However, seeing Yang Tianyou's resolute attitude and the ever-approaching, overwhelming Destruction Storm, he had no choice but to reluctantly take out a palm-sized Hexagonal Shield.

Yang Tianyou's eyes flashed as he recognized the shield's true nature. It was clearly a Ninth Tier Forbidden Artifact, and it appeared to be of defensive purpose.

He knew it! The Wushang Hall sent so many disciples and elders to intercept the Huchen Sect's support Fleet with a complete stranger. How could they not have some trump cards up their sleeves? If they were really that carefree, the Wushang Hall would have been gone long ago. How could they still be fighting the Huchen Sect to a standstill, and even in recent years, with the rise of the Dragon Elephant Mountain Lord, directly overpower the Huchen Sect?

The Nascent Body Integration Cultivator from the Wushang Hall was also very decisive. Since they had decided to use their trump card, they didn't hesitate at all and directly poured their Law Power into it to activate the Ninth Tier Forbidden Artifact.

Black light cascaded down like a waterfall, and the shield Storm, transforming in an instant into a gigantic shield tens of thousands of feet tall. The surface of the shield was carved with the image of a blue-faced, fanged demon. When the Divine Wind blew, the demon suddenly opened its eyes, and its huge mouth, like Heavenly Dog swallowing the sun, unleashed an extremely terrifying suction force, sucking all the oncoming gale into the shield.

But that wasn't all. After all the gale was absorbed, the evil spirit opened its mouth and spat out a continuous Wind Blades that curved and returned along the same path. The many disciples on the Huchen Sect's warship who witnessed this scene couldn't help but be moved and unable to control themselves.

Yun Chenzi's face turned ashen. The Forbidden Artifact brought out by the Wushang Hall was clearly of better quality. It not only directly blocked the attack of the Gale Divine Eye, but also returned part of the attack back, using the opponent's own methods against them.

However, due to the repeated twists and turns, the power of the gale has been greatly weakened. With the help of the Fleet's Defensive Formations and the combined efforts of many disciples, it is not a problem to defend against it.

The worst-case scenario is that the mysterious person will attack again at this moment.

Thinking of this, Feng Chenzi's gaze shifted, and his expression changed drastically.

Just as I feared, this mysterious cultivator had an exceptional grasp of the details of the battle. As the Divine Wind was blown back by the demon's head, he launched a counterattack at the same time.

Two gigantic wheels materialized on his fists, with illusory Gods and Devils figures swirling around them, emitting enigmatic chants. They were awe-inspiring and mysterious.

"The Life-and-Death Wheel!"

Yang Tianyou said indifferently, his voice as detached as King Yama of Hell, who sits in the Underworld and holds the power of life and death over all heavens, carrying an indescribable majesty and oppressive force.

Yun Chenzi was on high alert. The already damaged Ice River Spirit Treasure coiled around his body like a hundred pythons, and illusory icebergs appeared in front of the Fleet, forming the first line of defense.

At the same time, the warship's Defensive Formation was activated, with layers of shields stacked together, creating a formidable defensive force.

Yang Tianyou did not rush to launch an attack; the longer the Life-and-Death Wheel charged, the greater its power.

Let Divine Wind weaken the opponent first, then make your move; you're sure to achieve amazing results.

Divine Wind blew, shattering the icebergs and damaging the Ice River Spirit Treasure once again. Many layers of the Formation Shield outside the warship fleet were also broken, but they managed to hold on in the end.

However, the cultivators of the Huchen Sect did not relax in the slightest. They knew that the moment of truth, life or death, was about to begin.

As expected, Yang Tianyou's attack arrived the instant the Divine Wind finished blowing.

The two Wheels of Life-and-Death Wheel shattered the space and arrived, while the Wushang Hall Fleet behind them launched an attack at the same time, with streaks of light falling like a meteor shower.

The two waves of attacks, one after the other, were perfectly coordinated and completely overwhelmed the Huchen Sect's Fleet.
