It Was Time We Stretched Our Limbs Too
Outside the Nine Bends Yellow River Formation, on the battlefield where the two armies faced off, the atmosphere was equally tense.
The three— Daoist Randeng, Immortal Weng of the South Pole, and Yun Zhongzi —stared solemnly at the large formation shrouded in yellow sand and teeming with killing intent.
The Twelve Golden Immortals have been in the formation for some time now, but apart from the occasional churning of yellow sand, there has been no other movement within the formation.
The deathly silence made the three of them feel their hearts sink deeper and deeper.
Just then, a tall figure slowly stepped out from in front of the Shang Army camp, breaking the suffocating silence.
Zhao Gongming, dressed in a Daoist robe, exuded a powerful aura. He looked Randeng the three people opposite him, including Ran Deng, and spoke loudly, his voice resounding throughout the surrounding area.
"Three Fellow Daoists, we cannot simply stand by and watch."
" With the Twelve Golden Immortals in formation, we outside should stretch our muscles and bones."
Zhao Gongming's voice carried a sense of pride as he looked at Randeng and the other two, issuing a challenge without any hesitation.
"Which fellow Daoist would be willing to have a duel with this humble Daoist?"
He abruptly changed the subject, his tone becoming somewhat provocative.
"Or are the three of you planning to attack together?"
His words carried an undisguised boldness and fighting spirit, as if the person standing opposite him was not a renowned Great Powers of the Clarify Sect, but an ordinary opponent.
The brows of Daoist Randeng and the Immortal Weng of the South Pole twitched almost imperceptibly at the same time.
What an arrogant Zhao Gongming!
Before Randeng and the others could respond, Three Daos more figures followed closely behind, stepping out from the crowd at the front of the Great Shang Dynasty formation.
It was Yang Jiao, Yang Jian, and Yang Chan, the three siblings.
The three men's auras merged into one, sharp and unparalleled. Their gazes, like three unsheathed swords, were fixed directly on the Immortal Weng of the South Pole.
Yang Jiao, who was in the lead, spoke loudly, his voice icy cold.
"The Immortal Weng of the South Pole!"
His voice, unlike Zhao Gongming's, was not loud, but carried a chilling coldness that went straight to the bone.
"Do you dare to have a match with my two siblings?"
The Immortal Weng of the South Pole was on high alert, guarding against Zhao Gongming, when he was suddenly locked onto by these Three Daos of energy and couldn't help but turn his head away.
When he saw the faces of Yang Jiao and the other two clearly, his usually calm face showed obvious surprise for the first time.
These three people...
"It's the three of you."
The Immortal Weng of the South Pole spoke slowly. Of course, he recognized her; she was the nephew of the Jade Emperor Haotian and the child of Fairy Yaoji.
Back then, when he and his junior brother Guangchengzi went to the Heavenly Court on their Master's orders to pressure Haotian, they had seen these three people.
I never expected that they would appear here after so many years.
Moreover, his cultivation level has actually reached such a level.
He could sense that Yang Jiao, who was in the lead, and the woman were already at the Primordial Unity Golden Immortal realm.
The young man in the middle with a vertical line between his eyebrows was only slightly less imposing than himself!
Daluo Golden Immortal!
The Immortal Weng of the South Pole felt a chill run down his spine and blurted out.
"You are disciples of the Huoyun Cave. Does your presence here mean that the Huoyun Cave also intends to interfere in the contest between my Clarify Sect and the Interception Sect?"
It's no secret that these three siblings became disciples of the Huoyun Cave for cultivation.
Now that they've appeared within the Great Shang Dynasty camp, does it mean they represent the Human Race Holy Land and are openly supporting the Great Shang Dynasty?
If that's the case, it would certainly not be a good thing for his Clarify Sect sect.
Human Clan are the protagonists of heaven and earth. Although the Huoyun Cave is inconspicuous, the power it contains is something even Saint dare not underestimate.
Upon hearing the question from the Immortal Weng of the South Pole, Yang Jiao revealed a cold smile.
"Our presence here has nothing to do with the Huoyun Cave."
He spoke slowly and deliberately, each word seeming to be squeezed out from between his teeth.
"We've come to Settle Karma with you!"
Karma?
The Immortal Weng of the South Pole understood instantly.
So they came because of what happened back then.
As long as it's not Huoyun Cave that officially intervenes, it's fine.
As for whether these three siblings wanted to Settle Karma?
A hint of disdain arose in the heart of the Immortal Weng of the South Pole.
They're just three juniors, how could they possibly cause any trouble?
The events of that year were personally decided by Master Yuanshi Tianzun; he was merely acting on orders. What wrong had he done?
These three youngsters are so ignorant and arrogant that they dare to come knocking on our door. They're really courting death.
Then, the Immortal Weng of the South Pole Fly whisk his whisk and regained his dignified and otherworldly appearance.
"Since you wish to Settle Karma, then this humble Daoist will oblige."
Having said that, he said no more, and with a flicker of his body, he transformed into a streak of light and flew straight up to the Nine Heavens Above.
This place is in front of the two armies, so it is not convenient to make a move.
"Where do you think you're going!"
Yang Jian roared, his Heavenly Eye twitching violently, his overwhelming killing intent no longer able to be suppressed, and he transformed into a Golden Light, giving chase.
Yang Jiao and Yang Chan exchanged a glance and followed without hesitation.
Soon, high in the sky, celestial light exploded, and terrifying fluctuations of Magic Power erupted, clearly indicating that a battle had begun.
On the battlefield, only Zhao Gongming remained, facing off against Randeng and Yun Zhongzi.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Gongming laughed heartily.
He looked at Randeng and Yun Zhongzi again, his bold voice now tinged with a hint of provocation.
"Now, it's our turn."
"Which of you will challenge this humble Daoist priest to a duel?"
"Or are you two going to come at me together?"
Upon hearing this, even the usually calm Daoist Randeng Deng couldn't help but feel a surge of anger.
How dare Zhao Gongming utter such arrogant words, claiming he could fight two against one?
Yun Zhongzi also looked displeased, but remained silent.
He has never liked fighting, and if it weren't for orders from his sect, he would never have come to this place of Killing Tribulation.
Randeng and Yun Zhongzi exchanged a glance.
Finally, the Daoist Randeng slowly opened his half-closed eyes and took a step forward.
He bowed respectfully to Zhao Gongming, a gentle smile on his face.
"This humble Daoist priest, though unworthy, wishes to have a contest with Fellow Daoist Zhao."
After saying this, a cloud of auspiciousness rose from beneath his feet, carrying him slowly into the sky.
Zhao Gongming snorted coldly, and also transformed into a beam of Mystic Light, soaring into the sky.
He and that old fellow Randeng had never had a good relationship.
This person, one of the Three Thousand Guests of the In Purple Sky Palace, has become a disciple of Primordial Lord and willingly served as the deputy leader; he is the most hypocritical.
Today is a good opportunity to test his abilities.
High in the sky, a fierce wind howled.
Zhao Gongming and Daoist Randeng faced each other from afar. Both were top-tier beings among the Daluo Golden Immortal. The collision of their invisible auras caused the void to tremble and the wind and clouds to change color.
"Randeng, you are the Deputy Sect Master of Chan Sect, yet you come to this Killing Tribulation today to fight with us juniors. Aren't you afraid of losing your dignity?"
Zhao Gongming spoke first, his words carrying a hint of teasing.
The Daoist Randeng Deng remained expressionless, offering only a curt reply.
"In this Tribulation, all beings are equal; what need is there for talk of status?"
"Fellow Daoist, you are shrouded in murderous intent and burdened with heavy Karma; I fear you will find it difficult to escape being listed on the Investiture of the Gods."
"Hahaha!"
Zhao Gongming burst into laughter, as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world.
"We Jie Sect Disciple have no fear of Karma Killing Tribulation!"
"Enough talk, let's see what we've got!"
Before he could finish speaking, Zhao Gongming suddenly slapped the top of his head.
A beam of purple light shot out, and a giant hammer, crackling with purple lightning, appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Purple Lightning Hammer!
This is Supreme Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, containing supreme Law of Thunder, and is an extremely powerful and yang-based weapon of destruction!
"Take this!"
Zhao Gongming roared, without any fancy probing, he swung the Purple Lightning Hammer, his figure as fast as lightning, and smashed it straight down on the head of the Daoist Randeng!
Boom!
With a single swing of the hammer, thousands of thunder dragons roared, and purple lightning tore through the sky. That pure, Destruction power made the entire heavens tremble!
A hint of solemnity finally appeared on the eternally unchanging face of the Daoist Randeng.
What an overbearing Magic Treasure! What a fierce and powerful cultivator!
He dared not be negligent and slapped the top of the door in the same manner.
An ancient jade ruler flew out from the Three Flowers on the Crown, grew in the wind, and became a hundred feet in size, lying horizontally in front of him.
It was his companion Spirit Treasure, the Universe Ruler!
"Clang--!"
A resounding clang, powerful enough to shatter the stars, Yunxiao!
The Purple Lightning Hammer and the Universe Ruler collided violently.
A terrifying energy storm, centered on the two, swept wildly outwards, tearing the clouds in the sky to shreds.
Zhao Gongming felt a vast, boundless, yet ethereal power rebound from the Purple Lightning Hammer, causing him to momentarily freeze.
That old fellow really knows his stuff!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Daoist Randeng was even more shocked.
He felt as if his Universe Ruler had struck an Primordial Divine Mountain, unleashing an incomparably violent force.
The Destruction Law of Thunder contained within it caused his blood to surge and his arms to go numb.
This Zhao Gongming possesses such Magic Power abilities that it's simply unbelievable!
"Again!"
Zhao Gongming was full of fighting spirit. When his first attack failed, he used the force of the recoil to flip in the air, and swung his Purple Lightning Hammer down again!
Each strike is faster and more powerful than the last!
For a moment, only the Nine Heavens Above was filled with purple Lightning and deafening roars.
