Nuwa entered the fray, and Primordial Lord lost his composure: Didn't you agree to stay neutral?
Sishui Pass.
A killing formation stood between heaven and earth, its endless killing aura soaring into the sky, staining the clouds Nine Heavens Above with a bloody hue.
It was the number one killing formation in the Primordial Wilderness, the Immortal Execution Sword Formation.
The Tongtian Sect Master, dressed in a blue Daoist robe and holding the Qingping Sword, stood alone before the formation.
He simply stood there, yet he was like a peerless divine sword drawn from its sheath, its sharpness fully revealed, as if he could cleave the heavens and earth in two.
He was waiting for someone.
In the void, a wisp of Clear Qi rippled, and two Dao Body silently appeared.
Just then, a flash of clear light appeared in the void, and two Dao Body arrived together.
A man dressed in an apricot-yellow Daoist robe, holding Three Treasures Jade Ruyi, exuded a Surrounding Body Saintly Might Yuanshi Tianzun.
The other person was an old man, riding Green Ox, holding a Fly whisk in his hand. His aura Pure and Inactive, as if he were one with heaven and earth.
He is the head of the Three Pure Ones, the Taiqing Saint.
The Tongtian Sect Master slowly raised his head, his gaze passing over the murderous Yuanshi Tianzun and landing on the Taiqing Saint.
His face showed no anger, no questioning, only an overwhelming sense of desolation.
"Eldest Brother, you really did come after all."
The Taiqing Saint met Tongtian's complex gaze and simply sighed softly.
He didn't speak.
But his silence was the best answer he could give.
At their level, words become superfluous; stance is everything.
For that elusive Humanity Dao, for that possibility of going further.
In the end, he chose to join forces with Primordial Lord, standing on the opposite side of his Third Brother.
The Tongtian Sect Master slowly withdrew his gaze, and that last glimmer of hope vanished.
He smiled.
There was a hint of self-mockery and a touch of sorrow in that laughter.
"Since we're here, let's break the formation."
Yuanshi Tianzun felt a surge of pleasure as he looked at Tongtian's appearance.
But he didn't rush to make a move.
The Immortal Execution Sword Formation cannot be broken by anyone other than the Four Saints.
He knew this all too well. Now that it was just him and his Eldest Brother, even if they went in, it would be futile, and they wouldn't be able to break the formation at all.
But he wasn't in a hurry.
Because those two from the West will definitely come.
Yuanshi Tianzun sneered, speaking with utter sarcasm.
"Tongtian, don't be so smug."
"Today marks the beginning of the destruction of your Interception Sect!"
"I will personally send every single one of your disciples to the Investiture of the Gods of the Gods!"
The Tongtian Sect Master simply looked at him calmly without replying.
Primordial Lord was waiting for someone, but wasn't he also waiting for someone?
Fellow Daoist Zhou Ming's promise, Fellow Daoist Nuwa's assistance... this is the source of his confidence to set up the Immortal Execution Sword Formation here and become an enemy of the Four Saints!
At that very moment.
In the West sky, the sound of chanting Buddhist hymns filled the air, and golden lotuses bloomed everywhere.
Two magnificent Golden Light pierced the sky and arrived in an instant, landing in front of Sishui Pass.
The Golden Light dissipated, revealing the figures of Jieyin and Zhunti.
Zhunti a touch of perfect compassion on his suffering face, Zhunti bowed respectfully to Yuanshi Tianzun from afar.
"Fellow Daoist Primordial Lord Yuanshi, my senior brother and I have come to lend you a hand and help you break this formation."
Seeing this, Yuanshi Tianzun finally revealed a confident smile and returned the greeting.
"Thank you both for your help."
The Daoist Jieyin looked distressed and clasped his hands together.
"Fellow Daoist, there's no need to be so polite."
"Fellow Daoist Tongtian is acting perversely, attempting to reverse the will of Heaven. We are merely following the will of Heaven and restoring order."
What a wonderful way to submit to fate!
The Tongtian Sect Master sneered inwardly.
Those two shameless scoundrels!
In order to seize a share of the Interception Sect's Fortune, they actually dared to utter such a high-sounding reason!
As the Four Saints gathered, the smug smile on Yuanshi Tianzun's face grew even wider.
Taiqing, Primordial Lord, Jieyin, Zhunti.
With the four Saint joining forces, he wanted to see how Tongtian could possibly turn the tables today!
"In that case, everyone, follow me into the formation and break this fiend's killing array!" Yuanshi Tianzun shouted.
"Good!"
The three Saint, Taiqing, Jieyin, Zhunti, responded in unison.
At this moment, the four Heavenly Dao Saint reached a consensus.
Four vast and boundless auras of Saint power were released without reservation, instantly enveloping the entire Sishui Pass battlefield.
The heavens and earth changed color, and the sun and moon lost their light!
Throughout the entire Primordial Wilderness, countless Great Powers turned their gazes to this place, and when they saw the four Saint standing side by side, they were all horrified.
The Four Saints join forces to break the formation!
What an astonishing and magnificent undertaking!
As the Tongtian Sect Master looked at the four people who were about to join forces to enter the formation, his usually calm heart was finally stirred by a slight ripple.
Why aren't Nuwa and Wu... here yet?
If they don't come soon, he will face the Four Saints alone, and even with the advantage of the Immortal Execution Sword Formation, he will have no chance of winning.
Have they changed their minds?
No, impossible!
At this critical moment...
Just as the four members of the Yuanshi Tianzun were about to step into the formation.
Suddenly, two completely different, yet equally vast and terrifying auras appeared between heaven and earth.
An aura emanated from the direction of Chaoge, majestic and profound, as if carrying the will of billions of living beings, exuding an imperial and domineering aura that suppressed the universe.
The other aura came from the Empress Wa's Palace Beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens, a place of boundless Zaohua and vibrant life, yet also carrying an inviolable and supreme majesty.
Two Dao Body arrived almost simultaneously from different directions.
On the left is a young man dressed in a black royal robe. His face is ordinary, but his eyes are as deep as the sea, and a terrifying Martial Path will surrounds Surrounding Body.
It is martial arts!
On the right is a woman of unparalleled beauty, dressed in palace attire, pure and noble—none other than Nuwa!
The two appeared silently beside the Master of Tongtian Sect Master, one on the left and one on the right.
Wu looked at Tongtian and nodded slightly.
"The Saint Tongtian, Wu, has come to lend Saint a hand."
Nuwa also spoke, her voice clear and cold.
"Fellow Daoist Tongtian, I've also come to assist you."
When the Tongtian Sect Master saw that the two had arrived in time, his heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally completely relieved.
He bowed deeply to the two of them.
"Thank you both, fellow Daoists!"
The four— Yuanshi Tianzun, Taiqing Saint, Jieyin, Zhunti— froze in their tracks the moment they saw Wu and Nuwa appear, preparing to step into the formation.
On all four faces, an undisguised look of astonishment appeared.
Wu Hui's arrival was within their expectations.
After all, the Interception Sect is now connected to the Fortune the Great Shang Dynasty, and Di Xin, the reincarnation of the Martial Ancestor, cannot sit idly by and watch the Interception Sect perish.
It was only right that he offered his help.
But Nuwa...
Why is she here too?
Hasn't she always avoided the world and refused to get involved in this Tribulation?
Why did I side with Tongtian at this most crucial moment?
The confident smile on Yuanshi Tianzun's face froze completely.
He stared intently at Nuwa, his voice icy, tinged with barely suppressed rage.
"Fellow Daoist Nuwa! What is the meaning of this?"
"Why should we help Tongtian!"
