Severing the Golden Lotus and Stealing Its Origin
Just as Yuanshi Jieyin made preparations, so too did Cihang.
Although he was very confident in himself, he was never arrogant.
Cihang's confidence has always stemmed from her being the true form within the Glass Realm.
When the Chaos Bell rang, the entire chaos fell silent.
Yuanshi and Jieyin also changed drastically, as they remembered the existence they had deliberately ignored.
In an instant, Cihang's almost shattered physical body was restored to its original state, even more radiant and majestic than before.
He stood on the Creation Green Lotus, and no matter how turbulent the chaos was, it could not affect him in the slightest.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
Another bell rang, shaking the Pangu Banner back billions of miles.
At this moment, Cihang is no longer Faith Incarnation, but the true self.
After merging the cultivation and insights of his avatar, Cihang's cultivation level has become infinitely close to that of Primordial Daluo Golden Immortal.
His aura was surging, as if he might break through at any moment.
Although Cihang was forced to leave the Primordial World, it was not that she was unable to return, but rather that she was unwilling.
The time is now ripe.
"Cihang, you've actually returned!"
Yuanshi's voice was dry, filled with surprise and helplessness.
Although their previous attack severely damaged Cihang, they also suffered considerable backlash.
Now, facing Cihang in his prime, he no longer has the certainty of victory.
"If I don't come back, won't you be able to bully me at will!"
As they spoke, the Primordial Heaven Measuring Ruler emitted an even more dazzling light and slashed down towards the two of them.
"Boom..."
The battle, which had just begun to ease, erupted again with even greater ferocity.
"Thump, thump, thump!"
The Chaos Bell continued to toll, its invisible sealing power Jieyin the two, Yuanshi.
As the Primordial Heaven Measuring Ruler continued to fall, the Merit Golden Lotus Jieyin gradually dimmed.
"Yuanshi Daoist Yuanshi, what are you waiting for if you don't go all out now?"
The Jieyin, his face pale, let out an angry shout.
The Yuanshi summoned the Taiji Diagram for protection.
The Pangu Banner was pushed to its limit, transforming into a giant axe with the power to split the heavens and earth.
"Boom..."
The Pangu Banner and the Primordial Heaven Measuring Ruler collided in the void, and the enormous force spread throughout the entire chaos.
Even with the two supreme treasures, the Taiji Diagram and the Pangu Banner, it was still difficult to suppress Cihang's divine power.
Jieyin ceased its defensive stance and raised the Jieyin's Treasure Banner, launching an attack on Cihang.
"You will certainly be there for this battle!"
With a wave of her hand, Cihang instantly formed the Seven Sha Spirit Severing Sword, Jieyin within them, while endless sword energy eroded him.
At this moment, the thirty-six Sea-Calming Pearl were also released, manifesting as the Thirty-Six Heavens, enhancing the power of the great formation.
Although she was fighting two saints alone, Cihang was not at a disadvantage in the slightest.
After Cihang's true form and avatar merged, her strength was actually slightly above that of a saint.
At this moment, Yuanshi and Jieyin were no longer considering how to kill Cihang, but how to escape unscathed.
This battle also shocked many cultivators watching from the Primordial World, giving them a clearer understanding of Cihang's combat strength once again.
On Golden Ao Island, a look of relief flashed in Tongtian's eyes.
He was very glad that he had not clashed with Cihang again.
At this moment, Cihang is not a saint, yet she is more like one.
"I wonder what the outcome would be if I were to fight him now?"
Suddenly, Tongtian was filled with boundless fighting spirit, Four Swords of Execution appeared in front of him at the same time.
Compared to the last time, the aura of the Four Swords of Execution is even more powerful and mysterious.
Tongtian was indeed wary of Cihang's strength, but it was precisely because of this that he was even more eager to fight him.
"After this ordeal, no matter the outcome, I will once again fight you with all my might!"
Thinking of the calamity facing the Interception Sect, Tongtian suppressed his fighting spirit.
In the Wuzhuang Temple on Longevity Mountain, Taiqing was no longer as calm as before, and had no intention of discussing the Dao.
The true form of Cihang has appeared, and it is clear that Yuanshi and Jieyin are not capable of dealing with it.
Even with Taiji Diagram in hand, the chances are slim.
"Fellow Daoist Zhenyuan, shall we conclude this Dao discussion here?"
Taiqing spoke in a deep voice.
"Fellow Daoist, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Why not stay here at Wuzhuang Temple and await the outcome of this battle?"
Zhenyuanzi was calm, but his attitude was very firm.
"Very well, then I will watch the outcome of this battle with you, fellow Daoist!"
After weighing their respective strengths, Taiqing did not act rashly.
He didn't think he was weaker than Zhenyuanzi, but Zhenyuanzi was determined to stop him, so leaving wouldn't be so easy.
Taiqing quickly regained his composure, accepted the failure of his plan, and began to focus on awaiting the outcome of the battle.
Their defeat was sealed the moment Cihang appeared in person.
However, he was not worried about Yuanshi's safety.
While Yuanshi might not be able to defeat Cihang in his current state, he still possesses sufficient strength to protect himself.
With these two supreme treasures in hand, even Cihang could not defeat Yuanshi.
He also took this opportunity to see where Cihang's limits were, so that he could be fully prepared for the next time.
Seeing that Taiqing had no intention of making a move, Zhenyuanzi shifted his attention to the Chaos Battlefield.
Taiqing's prediction was correct. Although Cihang was not afraid of Yuanshi and Jieyin, he was powerless to do what he Zhunti to Zhunti before.
"Fellow Daoist Cihang, shall we stop here?"
Seeing that the plan could not be accomplished, both Yuanshi and Jieyin began to consider retreating.
Continuing the fight would be pointless; it would only serve to build up Cihang's strength.
"The battle has begun, and it won't be so easy to back down now."
Although Cihang could hardly harm Yuanshi and Jieyin, how could she not pay a price for daring to scheme against herself?
Isn't Jieyin concerned with the Merit Golden Lotus? Then this time, let him truly suffer a loss.
In an instant, Cihang's attack became even more ferocious.
At this moment, the All Beings Seal was also released, merging with the Seven Sha Spirit Severing Sword, and clashing with the Jieyin's Treasure Banner.
The Sword Formation's power surged simultaneously, attacking the defensive golden lotus that Jieyin.
"It's no use. Fellow Daoist Cihang is indeed powerful, but I am ultimately a saint."
With the Merit Golden Lotus in hand, one is invincible.
This battle is pointless; let's call it a day!
The Jieyin Buddhist Brahma Sound arose around Jieyin, and the Merit Golden Lotus radiated boundless golden light, repelling all attacks.
The scattered golden light transformed into illusory golden lotuses.
Whether it has meaning or not is not for you to decide!
Cihang's voice was icy cold, and the sound of the Chaos Bell grew louder and louder, primarily affecting Jieyin.
At the same time, the Merit Lotus Platform was once again raised by Cihang.
Two similar golden lotuses appeared simultaneously within the great formation, echoing each other from afar.
However, it is noticeable that Cihang's Merit Lotus Platform is somewhat dimmer.
"Cihang, what are you going to do?"
Jieyin had a bad feeling, and his voice became more urgent.
"Seven Sha Spirit Severing Sword, Slash!"
With a loud shout, Cihang unleashed endless sword energy towards the Merit Golden Lotus.
At the same time, the lotus platform above shone brightly, beginning to devour the essence scattered by the golden lotus.
The lotus platform, which had been dimly lit, gradually began to regain its original radiance.
