Tai Cang sneered as he raised the Sky-Opening Sword. "Zhunti, Golden Turtle Island does not welcome you. Please leave!"
As he spoke, the battle intent in his eyes blazed ever brighter.
Tai Cang had entered the Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal realm some time ago, yet he had never been able to determine the limits of his own strength. Zhunti's arrival provided him with the perfect opportunity to test it.
"Are you truly determined to do this?" Zhunti's expression turned cold. He had not expected Tai Cang to dare challenge him. Though he knew that a Primordial Grand Unity Golden Immortal could stand shoulder to shoulder with a saint, one was not a true saint in the end. Zhunti believed victory was already assured. His pressure surged, crashing toward Tai Cang like a tidal wave.
Yet such pressure had no effect on Tai Cang. Calmly stroking the Sky-Opening Sword, he said, "Zhunti, such methods may work against ordinary cultivators, but they are useless against me. Since you refuse to leave, then fight!"
"Zhunti, do you dare battle me?"
The moment those words fell, heaven and earth fell silent. Kong Xuan and the others looked at Tai Cang with reverence in their eyes. To dare directly challenge a saint—such courage was deeply admirable.
"Courting death!" Murderous intent flashed in Zhunti's eyes. Tai Cang had repeatedly offended the dignity of a saint and thoroughly enraged him. He withdrew his pressure and said coldly, "Fine. I shall grant your wish."
Before his words had faded, a million-zhang-tall Thousand-Armed Buddha appeared behind Zhunti. Under its golden radiance, Duobao and the others lowered their heads one after another. Even the members of the Jie Sect gradually fell under the bewitchment of the Buddhist light, their expressions turning dazed.
"Despicable!" Tai Cang flew into a rage
