None of the Nine Sons of the Dragon knew who Bai was. They weren't familiar with Liusu and hadn't had much direct contact with her, after all, she was just a junior... Liusu wouldn't bother with them even if she bullied someone, they weren't worthy of being looked down upon.

Cough.

In short, Baxia and Liusu stared at each other for a long time before they remembered this person; until they actually met him, they could only guess. But everyone could guess that if this white cyclone were at its peak, it would be stronger than Taotie.

Taotie has already reached the pinnacle of the formless realm. What is stronger than Taotie?

It's not to say that it must be Taiqing; even though they are both at the peak of the Formless Realm, there might be differences in their performance. But everyone can conclude that this is a High Antiquity powerhouse who can overpower Taotie.

Those High Antiquity powerful beings who survived but did not ascend to heaven were undoubtedly enemies of the people in heaven; there is no doubt about it.

With such a powerful figure lending a helping hand, and the fact that Taotie is quite likely on our side, Heavenly Being are unaware of these things, why not seize such a good opportunity?

Chaofeng knew full well that there were variables involving the Black and White Vortex, but it had no choice but to make this move. Otherwise, once Jianmu was revived, everything would be over.

I just don't know how it will respond.

A giant hand, seemingly from beyond the heavens, arrived in the blink of an eye. The space between the sea and the sky appeared to be completely obscured by this hand, obscuring everything else.

Qiu Niu even withdrew the spirit that was wrapped around the zither, striving to maintain its peak condition, and soared into the sky to meet that palm.

Ju Yunxiu knew that the other party was Wuxiang.

If it weren't for Qiu Niu could probably have wiped out all living beings in this vast area.

But with Qiu Niu there, she played the zither in the treetop without feeling a single gust of wind; Qiu Niu took it all.

Qiu Niu's laughter echoed from the sky, "So it's you, Tian Panzi... Oh, no, shouldn't I call you Celestial Venerable Tian Pan now?"

"With the world in turmoil, what kind of immortal is this?" the other party said indifferently. The battle in the air had already begun. Ju Yunxiu could not probe with her divine sense to see what was happening, because she needed to play the zither and could not be distracted, and she simply dared not.

In a battle without form, any attempt to probe with divine senses might result in being torn to shreds.

Soon, Qiu Niu's furious roar echoed from the heavens, "The Ancient Silent Sound is silent! This bell is indeed in your hands!"

That Tian Panzi laughed and said, "It's only natural to bring something like this to deal with Qiu Niu."

Qiu Niu fell silent.

Ju Yunxiu looked up at the sky, somewhat worried.

Logically, Qiu Niu, with its ability to utilize the Jianmu tree, should have the upper hand in battles of equal strength. However, the opponent may have unleashed something that counters Qiu Niu, making the outcome uncertain...

But worrying was useless. The clash of the formless was beyond her comprehension for the time being, and she couldn't even discern the trajectory of the clash between the Great Daos.

All she could do was help Jianmu recover quickly, so she played even faster with her slender hands.

The musical notes seemed almost tangible, seeping into the trees.

"Roar!" The wind howled furiously, like a roar.

Chaofeng made his move.

Ju Yunxiu didn't even look up.

From the foliage below, countless white feathers suddenly shot out, blades of wind, arrays of feathers, a thousand and one techniques, drawing them southward.

Chaofeng's howling wind was completely neutralized by the same wind-based Technique Method.

Yu Feiling placed her hand on the Moon Blade, protecting Ju Yunxiu. Behind her was the High Priest, and to her left and right were Yu Shang leading all the elites of the late-stage Huiyang Winged Human Race, forming a Phoenix Formation to protect her.

Chaofeng said calmly, "Winged people, how have I treated you This King these tens of thousands of years?"

Yu Feiling said, "Very good."

"If I succeed, you will still be the nobles of the sea. Why work with those who do not trust you?"

Yu Feiling sighed, "Your Majesty... why have you rebelled?"

Chaofeng's lips twitched, but she didn't continue the banter. Even without Qin Yi's influence, the Winged Human Race would never rebel; Chaofeng had never expected to persuade them. There had been a perfect opportunity to sow discord among the Feathered People and cause a rebellion, but unfortunately, their son-in-law ruined it.

Yu Feiling has reached the Qian Yuan Perfection stage, and they are in the same cultivation realm. However, Yu Feiling can utilize the power of the Jianmu tree, Yu Feiling cannot; Yu Feiling has the elite of its entire clan, while Yu Feiling also has other subordinates, so on the surface, Yu Feiling seems to have the upper hand.

But it doesn't need to fight to the death with the rigid winged people, getting injured and exhausted. It didn't rely on itself to start this rebellion.

Further away, the Suanni and Bian were surrounded by several Daoist priests, their roars like thunder. These were Heavenly Being, all of them Qian Yuan, whom Chao Feng had let in.

From the other end of the treetop, a figure with a dragon's head and a jackal's body slowly approached.

Yazi.

Judging from this situation, it's part of Chaofeng's gang.

Yu Feiling said, "Did the Fifth Great King force our clan back then for this very reason?"

"That's not it," Ya Zi said slowly. "I didn't know about the third brother's plan before. I joined later. It was precisely because I had a deep grudge against you that I was persuaded by it. You are not a tribe that will compromise easily. You won't let this go. Sooner or later you will have to fight me. So let's settle it here and be done with it."

Yu Feiling didn't say anything.

As Taotie had told Qin Yi before, don't judge the Dragon Son by ordinary people's standards of good and evil. Yazi's actions have their own unique logic, which others may not understand. They might even think he's a fool. He only does what he believes is right. Debating is pointless.

A Black Fur Ball emerged from the Yu Shang ring beside her, grinning at Ya Zi: "So you're going to take revenge on your grandpa too, right?"

Ya Zi sneered, "I came here first to fight you. Come out, Taotie."

The dog transformed into a menacing black mist. "I think the Pixiu is hiding the Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pearl, it's clearly in cahoots with you, why doesn't it come out?"

Ya Zi said calmly, "It has other things to do."

The dog chuckled and said, "If it's going to deal with Qin Yi, then we should really pray for it."

Chaofeng said, "That's not necessarily true."

After saying that, there was nothing more to say. The dog tried to find out what method they had prepared, knowing that there was a "white ball," but it couldn't get any information out of them. It was too lazy to care anymore and soon it was fighting Ya Zi, fighting all the way up into the sky, gradually approaching the location where Qiu Niu and Tian Panzi were fighting.

No one wanted to put too much burden on Jianmu, so they even fought in perfect unison.

Below, Chaofeng had already clashed with Yu Feiling, and its subordinates were clashing with the elite winged warriors led by Yu Shang.

From the outside, it appears that there is no other protection around Ju Yunxiu.

A Daoist priest bypassed the obstruction of the Suanni and Bian, formed a Law Seals with both hands, and swiftly pressed it down on Ju Yunxiu.

It wasn't that he, a dignified Qian Yuan, insisted on close combat; he simply had no other choice.

In this place, all kinds of battles raged, Law Treasure shone everywhere, heaven and earth suddenly split apart, the five elements collapsed, and the Great Dao was in a tangled mess. Those who were slightly weaker could hardly mobilize the five elements of heaven and earth with conventional Technique Method. Instead, hand-to-hand combat was the most direct way to fight.

Just as he was about to approach Ju Yunxiu, he saw a sharp glint flash in the eyes of the woman who seemed to only care about playing the zither and knew nothing else.

A painting suddenly appeared in front of him, emanating a terrifying primordial suction force. The Daoist priest, who was rushing forward, was unable to pull himself back and uncontrollably fell into the painting.

The scenes of battle raging everywhere seemed to freeze for a moment.

Amidst this chaos, which even many Qian Yuan experts struggled to maintain, this scroll-shaped Law Treasure suddenly shone brightly, seemingly unaffected by the chaos, continuing as before. Even a Qian Yuan cultivator was caught completely off guard and fell into it, disappearing without a trace.

Ju Yunxiu continued playing the zither, "If you don't know the new ways of the human world, what are the immortals and gods of heaven? They are nothing more than this."

Tian Panzi who was fighting Qiu Niu, said calmly, "How dare you."

An ancient, rustic sound arose, seemingly about to bypass Qiu Niu and teach Ju Yunxiu a lesson.

Just then, Ya Zi, who was entangled with Gou Zi, took a heavy blow from Gou Zi and crashed into Qiu Niu Tian Panzi's battle, covered in blood.

The dog was stunned. "You...?"

"Thump!"

The ancient sounds resounded loudly, and the heavens and earth roared.

While Tian Panzi was dealing with Qiu Niu and trying to distract himself from Ju Yunxiu, he finally couldn't dodge Yazi's last-minute attack. With a "thud," Yazi crashed heavily into the Ancient Silent Sound Bell, and the bell's sound, which was suppressing Qiu Niu's characteristics, suddenly shifted.

Qiu Niu would never miss this opportunity. The suppressed Spirit of Music was released without restraint, like an echo of the beginning of the universe, and exploded into the opponent's territory.

"Pfft..." Tian Panzi coughed up blood and retreated.

The scene was completely silent; even the fighting had stopped.

Unexpectedly, Wuxiang was the first to be injured in this battle!

Everyone stared blankly at the Yazi, its flesh and blood collapsing—it had crashed headlong into this supreme treasure that was powerful enough to suppress the formless, how could its mere Qian Yuan body possibly withstand it? Its physical body had already completely collapsed, leaving only a wisp of Spirit Body floating weakly.

Its furious roar still echoed in the air, "I've been playing along with you bunch of bastards for this moment! Kill my father god, die!"

Even Chaofeng was stunned.

So this is the real logic of Yazi.

Even the smallest grudge must be avenged... So, if there is a blood feud for killing one's father, then one should repay it with one's life or death.
