Yuanshi Admits Defeat, Meeting Tongtian Again
The Twelve Heavens Array of All Fiends is recognized by all cultivators as a top-tier formation, capable of rivaling even saints.
However, with the fall of the Twelve Ancestor Witches, the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods also became defunct in name only.
This wasn't the first time Cihang had used this grand formation, but that was the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods, which couldn't even unleash half of its original power.
This further convinced everyone that the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods was only complete in the hands of the Ancestral Witch.
Naturally, no one paid any attention to the formation in Cihang's hands.
What they didn't know was that, in Cihang's hands, the All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banner was constantly being upgraded.
Through the Myriad Immortals Diagram, the Fiend God Banner has been continuously gathering the essence and blood of the Ancestral Witch and fragments of their true spirit.
Today, the All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banner is not only a magical treasure, but also a continuation of the Twelve Ancestor Witches.
Within it, there was already a faint hint of life.
Even so, Cihang still could not completely replicate the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods.
He lacks the Ancestral Witch Bloodline and cannot unleash their full power.
He collected the Twelve All-Heavenly Divine Fiend Banners not only to leave a glimmer of hope for the Ancestral Witch, but also to gain more assistance.
Such a powerful formation naturally made it impossible for them to give up.
In order to unleash the full power of the formation, Cihang spent a long time studying and comprehending it.
Ultimately, through the Myriad Immortals Diagram, tens of thousands of grand formations were deduced, and the power of these formations was used to activate the Pangu Bloodline.
Now, even though it still failed to summon the Pangu True Body when it was used once again, its power was no less than that of the original version of the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods.
Compared to the original version which uses bloodlines to form an array, Cihang's array is the true formation.
Looking at the overwhelming power of the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods, all the cultivators felt a chill in their hearts.
This is only Cihang's avatar; if her true form were to attack, how terrifying would it be?
Could it be that Cihang's true strength has surpassed that of a saint?
An incredible thought arose in the minds of many cultivators.
Jieyin and Zhunti smiled broadly.
Although they were a step too late this time, it allowed them to avoid conflict with Cihang.
He even witnessed Yuanshi making a fool of himself.
Both Taiqing and Tongtian, being members of the Sanqing, felt a sinking feeling in their hearts at the same time.
Although Taiqing did not care about the Investiture of the Investiture of the Gods, he did not want anyone to be above others.
At this moment, Cihang has already shown such momentum.
However, he did not make a move at that moment.
It wasn't that he wasn't worried about Yuanshi, but rather that he knew that if he intervened, he wouldn't only fail to help Yuanshi, but would also make the battle situation more complicated.
Cihang was never alone.
Compared to Taiqing's complex emotions, Tongtian's were much simpler.
He had long sensed that Cihang was not a simple person.
The last time I attacked Cihang, it was because I was forced by Taiqing and Yuanshi.
In reality, he did not want to be Cihang's enemy.
In hindsight, their hunch was correct.
At this moment, he was not concerned about the outcome of the battle, but rather focused on the Great Array of All Heavens' Fiend Gods itself.
Among all the saints, he alone possessed the highest level of array formation mastery and was in charge of the Immortal Slaying Sword.
But this time he discovered that, in terms of formations alone, Cihang was definitely no less skilled than him.
Some of his insights into formations even gave him a sudden enlightenment.
At this moment, he even considered having a discussion with Cihang.
As the endless array patterns continued to generate and combine, Tongtian's gaze grew brighter and brighter.
Trapped within the great formation, Yuanshi grew increasingly anxious, unleashing all his abilities without reservation.
At this moment, he no longer hoped to defeat Cihang; he only wanted to escape as soon as possible.
Although he was not injured by the formation, he was never able to break through it.
In reality, the Twelve Heavens Array of All Fiends Formation is weaker than the Yuanshi.
Even a different sage might not have been able to trap him so easily.
However, the illusory figure within the formation exerted immense pressure on Yuanshi and the Pangu Banner.
One can only unleash 80-90% of their full strength at most.
It can only be said that Pangu was both their Pangu and their Pangu.
"Fellow Daoist Cihang is indeed exceptionally powerful; this time, Yuanshi has lost!"
Seeing that he could not break the formation, Yuanshi finally gave up and admitted defeat.
Although he was arrogant, he wasn't a sore loser.
There's no need to continue this battle; with his current abilities, it will be difficult to break through the formation in a short time.
There's no point in delaying any longer.
This time he was careless and underestimated Cihang's strength and resources.
He won't be discouraged by this; it will only fuel his motivation.
How about we end this battle in a draw?
In terms of cultivation and combat strength, I am indeed no match for you, fellow Daoist.
"The fact that we have achieved this situation is entirely due to the power of the great formation!"
Cihang did not back down, and waved her hand to retrieve the spiritual treasure and the great formation.
Yuanshi couldn't break the great formation, and he was equally helpless against Yuanshi.
As for the outcome of this battle, everyone has their own judgment.
"No, a loss is a loss, and I, Yuanshi, can afford to lose."
Next, we'll see how the disciples compete.
What do you think, fellow Daoist?
Yuanshi didn't harbor much hatred towards Cihang; on the contrary, he recognized her achievements and strength.
There were no personal grudges between them; it was merely a struggle between the greater good and personal interests.
"Alright, but to avoid causing chaos, how about we set up a battlefield at the border of the two states and let them fight each other?"
Cihang also knew that this struggle was unavoidable.
"Alright, then I'll await your news, fellow Daoist!"
Yuanshi had no objection; as the loser, he naturally had to follow Cihang's rules.
Moreover, Cihang's arrangement was the most suitable one.
This attack originated from Karmic Debt and malevolent energy; if it can avoid causing damage to heaven and earth, that would naturally be a good thing.
As Cihang watched Yuanshi depart, a smile appeared on her face.
This bought the cultivators of the Mount Luojia lineage a considerable amount of time.
Although the great calamity has begun, it has not yet reached its full potential.
It wasn't just him Cihang; everyone else was preparing for it too.
"Fellow Daoist Cihang, it's been a long time! Your strength has improved even more!"
No sooner had Yuanshi left than Tongtian stepped into the chaos.
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Tongtian. Do you also wish to fight me this time?"
Upon seeing Tongtian appear, Cihang became more cautious.
While Tongtian's cultivation level might not be comparable to Taiqing and Yuanshi, his combat strength is subtly superior.
Those Four Swords of Execution made Cihang extremely wary.
Although Tongtian rarely used it due to its overwhelming killing aura, it served as a tremendous deterrent to others.
"Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand. Tongtian has not come here to challenge us to a duel, but rather to ask for our help!"
Tongtian was gentle and tried his best to show his goodwill.
"Fellow Daoist is too kind. With your cultivation level as a sage, what could you possibly need my help with?"
Cihang was increasingly surprised.
Although he had no blood feud with the Sanqing, they could not be considered friends.
He had never forgotten the last time the Sanqing had besieged him.
His inaction doesn't mean he's forgotten.
However, neither the timing nor the strength allows it; now is not the time to settle this Karma.
