Clearing the Field
"No Rogue Cultivator are allowed inside, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Ren Zong's voice resounded throughout the Golden Hall. Although his voice was not loud, it sounded like the words of the heavens, and no one could disobey him.
Wu Dao stood beside him, his narrow eyes sweeping over the crowd.
His expression conveyed that he shared Ren Zong's thoughts.
Too many people have broken into the Golden Palace; we must first eliminate some before making any further plans.
Therefore, unaffiliated Rogue Cultivator became the first targets of sect disciples.
The disciples of the two sects under their command took out their magical weapons and formed a large group to surround the approaching Rogue Cultivator.
Not many of those Rogue Cultivator made it this far, but there were still a dozen or so. Each of them had given their all; how could they enter this treasure mountain only to be forced to retreat?
When they saw the disciples from both sects surrounding them, they immediately released their magical weapons.
Everyone's face was filled with rage, and many of them even had blood on them.
One of them said, "Ren Tianjiao, I heard you care deeply for your fellow disciples in your sect, but I never expected you to be so cold and ruthless towards outsiders!"
Another person chimed in, "You don't understand. He's definitely faking it so he can take control of their Heavenly Chen Sect in the future."
Regardless of whether these misleading words were true or false, Ren Zong's expression immediately changed.
"So noisy!"
Ren Zong let out another low shout and slapped the two men who had just spoken.
A hazy, gigantic hand-like figure appeared, traversing space and grabbing the two of them.
The two felt as if all five senses were sealed off by the giant hand of the Dharma form, and even if they wanted to escape their Primordial Spirit, they were powerless to do so!
They could only shout wildly, "You people from various sects, just wait and see! After Ren Zong Wu Dao eliminates us Rogue Cultivator, it'll be your turn, you small sects..."
Before the man could finish speaking, he suddenly stopped breathing.
With a flick of his hand, Ren Zong instantly turned the two bodies into two wisps of ashes and vanished under his Star Annihilation Hand.
The other Rogue Cultivator were all taken aback by what they saw.
Ren Zong, a prodigy, was ruthless and would strike at the slightest provocation.
What terrified them even more was that Ren Zong easily annihilated two Rogue Cultivator were both at the Primordial Spirit Realm with a single move. Were all the geniuses of top sects this terrifying?
With a single strike annihilating the enemy, Ren Zong acted as if he had done something insignificant. He glanced at the remaining Rogue Cultivator and said coldly:
"I'll say it again, all Rogue Cultivator, leave immediately!"
Wu Dao, standing beside Ren Zong, seemed to sigh and said:
"This is not a place for you. You should know your place. You are already very fortunate to have entered this Golden Heavenly Tomb. Why must you come to the Golden Palace? There are so many palaces below, still containing many treasures. You should leave!"
Wu Dao's voice was flat, devoid of any emotion.
What he said seemed to make some sense, but it gave people a sense of condescension and superiority.
Some people were dissatisfied and dared not target Ren Zong anymore, so they turned their anger towards Wu Dao.
"Wu Dao, don't forget, you also come from a minor sect. According to your logic, you should also withdraw."
"Brother Wu is far beyond your reach!"
Ren Zong actually spoke up for Wu Dao; it's unclear when their relationship became so close.
Wu Dao's narrow eyes were fixed on the person who had defied him.
With a flick of his wrist, a black aura shot out like an arrow, piercing the man's skull with lightning speed, and the man instantly collapsed and died.
This move also shocked everyone. The Rogue Cultivator dared not say another word and all withdrew from the Golden Palace, fleeing in panic.
After all, there is no reasoning when faced with absolute power; life and death are determined by others, not by one's own will.
After they retreated, disciples from Ren Zongwu's two sects stood guard in front of the Golden Palace, blocking their way.
Just as those Rogue Cultivator had predicted, Ren Zong and Wu Dao turned their attention to the True Disciple other sects.
Suddenly, the other True Disciple from various sects within the golden palace felt a terrifying premonition of impending death.
"Those who are not from top-tier sects, nor are they among the prodigies, I don't think I need to say more. Do you really think you can obtain the treasures within the Golden Palace?"
Even if you manage to gain something by chance, do you really think you can hold onto it?
Ren Zong True Disciple the remaining disciples of other sects, but skillfully avoided looking at the Bull Demon Sect and Ning Qi, seemingly conveying two signals.
Firstly, the people he wants to force out do not include them.
Secondly, if he plays the bad guy, then the fewer people in the Golden Palace, the better. Forcing others out and reducing competitors is also beneficial to them, isn't it?
Seeing that he and Wu Dao were bullying the disciples by relying on their strength as prodigies and the power of True Disciple sects, Ning Qi had seen through the two of them completely.
The two of them used the same tactic to force away Rogue Cultivator rogue cultivators, and even resorted to making an example of them.
I'm afraid they'll pull this stunt again, targeting their Wuji Sword Sect.
However, Ning Qi was happy to see them like this, because only then would they realize they had messed with the wrong person.
Now that they're willing to be bad guys, let them be. Everyone will hold them accountable, and even if they die later, no one will speak up for them!
Unlike the previous Rogue Cultivator, those True Disciple of the sects did not act impulsively, and did not even utter a word.
Rogue Cultivator are used to their freedom, but their knowledge is limited, and they cannot see the cruelty of the true world of sects.
The top sects have powerful experts at the Integration Realm in charge. If it weren't for the checks and balances between several sects, any one of them could easily wipe out all of them...
Therefore, even though their eyes revealed resentment, they dared not say anything more and then left the Golden Palace one by one.
Thus, inside the Golden Palace, those who remained were the top sects from both the North and South regions, along with a prodigy named Ning Qi and the eight True Disciple of the Wuji Sword Sect he led.
Ren Zong and Wu Dao's gazes finally fell on Ning Qi and the others, but when they saw that there were nine of them together, the two frowned slightly.
Immediately, their gazes fell upon several True Disciple of the Northern Profound Sect.
Ren Zong said dismissively, "Hasn't your senior brother Chu Xiaotian arrived yet?"
The seven True Disciple of the Northern Profound Sect looked grim.
In order to save time, Chu Xiaotian went ahead to the Golden Heavenly Tomb and broke away from their group.
The seven of them finally arrived, but they couldn't find Chu Xiaotian anywhere!
They naturally missed Chu Xiaotian's battle with Ning Qi outside the Golden Heavenly Tomb.
Although there were many onlookers at the time, everyone rushed into the Golden Tomb after the battle ended. No one stayed behind to kindly tell them that Chu Xiaotian had died.
Moreover, if this bad news were to actually reach those people, they might be tempted to commit murder in a fit of rage.
After all, there are indeed very few truly good people among these top sects.
Even Wu Dao, standing beside Ren Zong, looked puzzled.
It was extremely strange that Chu Xiaotian had not yet shown up; he had never even considered the possibility that he might already be dead.
After all, Ren Zong had said that he might not be a match for Chu Xiaotian.
Chu Xiaotian's century-long stay at the limit of the Primordial Spirit Realm was not in vain!
These prodigies can easily kill ordinary Nascent Primordial Spirit cultivators, but killing another prodigy is almost impossible.
"Could it be that Chu Xiaotian discovered Fu Chen's whereabouts and went after him?" Wu Dao suddenly asked.
Ren Zong was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized.
That should be the case.
Hearing their conversation, the seven members of the Northern Profound Sect were also taken aback. Could it really be true?
Although they had suspected that Chu Xiaotian might have met with some misfortune, who among those present had that ability?
Could it be Ning Qi?
Ning Qi, that guy, they sent out a challenge, but he didn't even dare to show his face. It couldn't possibly be him. It's already a relief that they haven't bothered him!
However, once inside the Golden Heavenly Tomb, the group lost all connection and had no idea where their senior brother had gone.
Seeing the expressions on the faces of the seven members of the Northern Profound Sect, Ren Zongwu smiled quietly.
It would be best if Chu Xiaotian didn't come; they would have one less powerful competitor.
Moreover, if he discovers Fu Chen's whereabouts, it will be a good thing for them, as they can use this clue to find Fu Chen's location later.
As for the seven people from the Northern Profound Sect in front of us, hehe...
Ren Zonghan said with a cold face, "Since Chu Xiaotian has not arrived, you may all leave the Golden Hall."
"What?"
Among the seven, Zhao Fei, who had a good relationship with Chu Xiaotian, stepped forward.
"Ren Zong, Wu Dao, we are not like those Rogue Cultivator or members of small sects. How dare you equate us with them? Aren't you being far too arrogant!"
A divine light shone from Wu Dao's narrow eyes, making him appear unfathomable.
"Chu Xiaotian hasn't arrived yet, so how dare you speak to us?"
With a casual wave of his hand, he instantly created a protective barrier that enveloped the seven people.
Enraged, the seven men drew their weapons, attempting to break the Formation, but their attacks only created ripples when they struck Formation.
Wu Dao's eyes revealed a look of disdain; however, he seemed unwilling to kill the seven people himself, and instead turned to look at Ning Qi and the others.
"Ning Qi, I heard that your Wuji Sword Sect has a conflict with the Northern Profound Upper Sect. I've trapped them for you now, why don't you go and deal with them?"
Ning Qi and the others were watching this good show when they never expected that Wu Dao would actually try to use someone else to do his dirty work. He really had a clever plan.
Jiang Qingxue and the other eight looked at Ning Qi in unison. They respected Ning Qi and naturally let Ning Qi make the decision.
The demons, including Niu Man, also looked at Ning Qi. Niu Man even gave him a look, as if to say, "If you really want to kill him, let me do it."
Ning Qi smiled calmly at all the gazes directed at him.
"Isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Ren Zong frowned slightly, thinking that Ning Qi was too timid.
It's an insult to the name of geniuses that such a guy was brought together by everyone and these real prodigies.
"What's wrong with that? The struggle for immortality is a matter of life and death. Although our Southern True Domain and your Northern Profound Domain are located in the north and south respectively and rarely interact, we also know that the Northern Profound Sect definitely wants to kill you to prevent you from threatening them in the future."
Ren Zong advised, while glancing at the seven members of the Northern Profound Sect trapped by the Formation, and added, "Gentlemen, am I wrong?"
Upon hearing this, the seven men snorted coldly.
Zhao Fei roared from within the Formation, "Ren Zong, you'd better persuade Wu Dao to release us, otherwise when Senior Brother Chu arrives, not only will Ning Qi suffer, but you won't have an easy time either!"
A hint of murderous intent flashed in Ren Zong's eyes, but he restrained himself and turned back to Ning Qi, saying:
"See? I wasn't wrong. They did indeed have that intention. If you're worried about retaliation from the Northern Profound Sect, you can rest assured. There's no one else here, and no one knows it was you who did it."
"Aren't you human?" Ning Qi suddenly asked.
Ren Zong: "..."
Wu Dao and Ren Zong exchanged a glance, thinking that Ning Qi was pretending to be stupid.
"Forget it, Brother Ren. I wanted to help the Wuji Sword Sect, but we've already trapped them, and they're not even grateful. I think Ning Qi is not worthy of being ranked among the top talents like you and me, and he doesn't deserve to stay in this Golden Palace."
Ren Zong rubbed his forehead with one hand, "You're right, I've wasted so much time on fools!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than a scream rang out from within the Formation Wu Dao had released.
Everyone looked over and saw that all seven disciples of the Northern Profound Sect had perished.
Jiang Qingxue and the others saw the figures of Ren Zong and Wu Dao reflected in their eyes, feeling that the two were far too insidious and ruthless, yet they pretended to be dignified.
"Alright, now only the Wuji Sword Sect members are left. Do you want to leave on your own, or should I escort you out?"
Wu Dao, dressed in a blue robe, stood inside the golden palace, cooperating seamlessly with Ren Zong. The two seemed to have a confident air about them, as if they were in control of the entire situation.
Ren Zong ignored Ning Qi and the others; it was already a done deal anyway.
Instead, he asked in surprise, "Brother Wu, you even killed all seven members of the Northern Profound Sect, why did you spare them?"
Wu Dao countered, "With Brother Ren's intelligence, surely you understand my meaning?"
Ren Zong smiled and said, seemingly oblivious to those around him:
"Oh, I see. Brother Wu, you truly are a master strategist. You're using the two sects of the Northern Profound Domain as pawns, having Ning Qi and the others restrain the development of the Northern Profound Upper Sect. Am I right?"
"Brother Ren truly understands me!"
Ren Zong nodded slightly and said, "With someone like Brother Wu joining our Tianchen Sect, the Tianchen Sect will surely have another Nascent Soul Realm master in the future."
"Brother Ren, you flatter me. You will surely be the first to enter this field. I hope you will offer me more guidance in the future."
"Haha, Brother Wu, you're too kind."
Upon hearing this, everyone finally understood.
It turns out that Wu Dao and Ren Zong had already made a secret deal, and Wu Dao was going to abandon his original sect and join the Tianchen Upper Sect. No wonder the two of them were cooperating so closely.
In front of the Golden Palace.
These words naturally reached the ears of everyone in Wu Daoyuan's original sect.
They all turned their heads and looked at Wu Dao with expressions of disbelief.
Wu Dao was insightful enough to understand people's hearts; how could he not know what they were thinking?
"Fellow disciples, you should also depart. Take this opportunity to bring back as many treasures as possible to the sect. Also, remember to tell Master that if I continue to stay in the sect, my future is over, so for the sake of future development, I must do this."
Those people seemed to have lost their souls. They never expected that Senior Brother Wu Dao, whom they had nurtured with all the resources of the sect, would choose to betray the sect and leave in the Xuanzhen Secret Realm.
One of them reacted quickly.
"Senior Brother Wu, why don't we come with you to the Heavenly Chen Sect? Otherwise, if we go back alone, I'm afraid Master will reprimand us!"
Unexpectedly, Wu Dao rebuked them sternly. "Don't you know what kind of existence the Heavenly Chen Upper Sect is? Do you think you can just take in any Tom, Dick, or Harry? Don't you have any self-awareness about your own abilities?"
The man was filled with despair, realizing that Wu Dao intended to abandon them all to achieve his own ends.
They dared not say a word and descended the jade steps to heaven, utterly dejected.
If they stayed any longer, this senior brother would probably attack them mercilessly!
The entire Golden Palace was suddenly left with only four opposing forces.
Seeing that Wu Dao had driven away his former sect disciples, Ren Zong suddenly said:
"Brother Wu, isn't it a bit too early to send them away now? If they leave, only our junior brothers and sisters from the Tianchen Sect will be left to guard the gate. There will probably be many more people coming later. How can they possibly keep up?"
Upon hearing this, Wu Dao hissed.
"I forgot about that! It's a pity I don't understand how the Formation inside this golden palace works right now, otherwise, I could just close the doors and no one could enter."
Ren Zong dusted off his sleeves. "I think Brother Wu still has feelings for them and deliberately sent them away. But never mind, with Brother Wu joining us, it's alright if the other junior brothers and sisters have to work a little harder."
Wu Dao glanced at Ren Zong, a flash of displeasure crossing his eyes. Ren Zong was challenging him, revealing who was truly in charge of the Luminous Heaven Sect!
"Brother Ren, rest assured, I will definitely help you obtain as many treasures as possible."
"Hmm!" Ren Zong then glanced at Ning Qi and the others, "Why aren't you leaving yet? Do you really have to kill a few of them before you'll face reality?"
Ning Qi smiled, clapped his hands, and said calmly:
"Have you finished your performance, fellow disciples? Did you all witness this grand spectacle?"
Jiang Qingxue replied, "Senior Brother Ning, it was indeed a good show. I never expected the sect rivalry in the Southern True Domain to be so sophisticated. I've certainly broadened my horizons."
Xie Chaolu's pretty face was contorted with distress, and her bright eyes seemed to be misty.
She said, "Senior Sister, I suddenly feel that our Wuji Sword Sect is so fortunate. With Senior Brother Ning around, this kind of situation is almost unheard of."
Jiang Qingxue couldn't help but smile. This silly girl probably didn't know what Ye Qingtian and Ye Chen had done on the way here.
As a member of the Jiang family, although she couldn't be completely certain, she could guess about 70-80% of the truth.
"Brother Niu, how is your assessment?"
Niu Man smiled naively and said:
"Brother Ning, don't equate their actions with all sects in the Southern True Domain. Our Bull Demon Sect is definitely not that cunning. To be honest, I find all this scheming and convoluted stuff too exhausting. It's better to just go straight to the point and settle the score!"
Across from him, Ren Zong narrowed his eyes, revealing his murderous intent without any attempt to conceal it.
Wu Daoyi also displayed the same expression.
Are you mocking us?
"Gentlemen, let me correct you on one point: telling the truth is not the same as mockery."
Ren Zong said coldly, "Very well, Brother Wu, I'll leave the rest to you!"
Wu Dao's pupils reflected the faces of the Wuji Sword Sect members as if they were corpses.
"Let Brother Niu Man take the lead. We drove away so many people earlier, which was extremely beneficial to the Bull Demon Sect. Now it's Brother Niu Man's turn to lend a hand. We can't let us do all the bad things, can we?"
Ren Zong replied, "Indeed! Brother Niu Man, you and I are the top True Disciple of the most prestigious sects in the Southern True Domain. As fellow prodigies, you should naturally have a share of the treasures in this Golden Palace."
"That was close! Old Niu, I thought you were going to drive out our Bull Demon Sect too!" Niu Man seemed relieved.
Ren Zong's smile returned, and he said:
"Brother Niu, let's be frank. We both probably want to get rid of each other, but given the power behind us, that's not realistic."
"How about this? If you eliminate a few of them and drive the rest out, I guarantee you'll get at least a mid-grade spiritual treasure and some spiritual blood. What do you say?"
Niu Man was stunned for a moment, as were the demons behind him.
Several portions of spiritual blood?
Ning Qi helped them obtain dozens of portions of spirit blood at the Hundred Demon Palace. Ren Zong only mentions a few portions—is he joking?
As for giving him a mid-grade spiritual treasure, it sounds like a good idea.
But once they start talking, who knows if these two guys can actually keep their word?
Not to mention, they also obtained several spiritual treasures and many jades of rules from Ning Qi.
Niu Man understood the unspoken message between the two: it seemed that among the treasures inside the Golden Palace, he and his demons only deserved a mid-grade spiritual treasure and a few portions of spiritual blood.
However, this golden palace clearly contained one high-grade spiritual treasure, several mid-grade spiritual treasures, and many other treasures. Was he really going to be satisfied with just one mid-grade spiritual treasure?
When Ren Zong and Wu Dao saw the stunned expressions on the faces of the Bull Barbarian demons, they assumed that he had agreed.
Unexpectedly, after regaining his senses, Niu Man walked to Ning Qi's side and said directly:
"Brother Ning, I think cooperating with you is the most worry-free option. I wonder if you could bring us along?"
His attitude was extremely respectful, bowing down almost halfway down his ox body, making Ren Zongwu, who was opposite him, wonder if he was dreaming.
That's Niu Man, the top True Disciple of a top sect. His ranking among the prodigies is on par with Ren Zong. Although Wu Dao considers himself extraordinary, he has to admit that he ranks behind him.
Now, Niu Man is showing such respect to Ning Qi of the Boundless Sword Sect in the Northern Profound Region. What merit does Ning Qi possess to deserve this?
He was able to be ranked among the prodigies because Fu Chen avoided him, thus securing his place on the list.
But which genius like Ren Zong, from a top-tier sect, would look down on Fu Chen and Ning Qi, these guys from ordinary, unorthodox sects?
"Brother Ning, I'm willing to lend a hand. All you need to do is give me a portion of your spiritual blood!" Niu Man said again.
Ren Zong and Wu Dao were deeply shocked.
Has this guy lost his mind?
Ning Qi's mind raced, and he nodded.
"Alright, since Brother Niu insists, then so be it."
Niu Man was willing to take the lives of the two guys opposite him, which would also help him get Niu Mo on board and draw their fire.
To avoid facing retaliation from the two top sects, Beixuan Sect and Tianchen Sect, in the future.
So, Ning Qi secretly manipulated the golden key he had obtained from the Shaoyang Palace from within his sleeve.
He had barely finished speaking when suddenly, the doors of the Golden Palace behind them slammed shut.
Ning Qi had just discovered that this golden key seemed to be able to control many places inside the Golden Heavenly Tomb.
Outside the gate, the disciples of the Tianchen Sect who were guarding to stop the crowd immediately turned around and were shocked to see the gate closed.
"Wu Dao is indeed quite capable; he deciphered the Golden Palace's Formation so quickly, and even managed to close the main gate."
"Yes, I was worried before that we wouldn't be able to stop the people coming later, but now that the main hall is closed, we can relax!"
Inside the golden palace.
Everyone was startled when they saw the palace doors suddenly close.
Ren Zong looked at Wu Dao, and his face immediately lit up with joy. He transmitted his voice and said:
"As expected of Brother Wu, so you've been secretly manipulating the palace's grand formation all along. Now that the palace doors are closed, we can wipe them all out, seize all the treasures, and even pin their deaths on this Heavenly Tomb."
Ren Zong was naturally delighted, thinking that since Wu Dao could control the great formation, wouldn't he have complete control over the treasures inside?
Wu Dao was completely bewildered. When had he secretly manipulated the palace's grand formation?
If he had that ability, wouldn't he have snatched the Dao Integration Technique from Fu Chen while he was running away?
They even seized all the treasures and wiped out Ren Zong, disappearing from the world forever.
Wu Dao didn't say it outright; since Ren Zong thought that way, then so be it.
This would not only increase Ren Zong's respect for him, but also allow him to receive more attention when he enters the Tianchen Upper Sect.
He immediately transmitted his voice:
"Brother Ren, while I'm still able to activate the palace's grand formation, let's join forces to kill them first, and then take the treasure!"
"Good!"
Even with the doors closed, the light emanating from the various treasures within the hall illuminated the entire space.
Ren Zong and Wu Dao worked together seamlessly.
No sooner had they finished speaking than the two attacked simultaneously.
Wu Dao moved his hands in front of him as if playing a zither.
With each movement, several beams of light flew through the air and landed around Ning Qi and the others.
In an instant, a hazy array of shadows enveloped everyone.
Within it, there seemed to be a world of its own, where yin and yang were reversed, and the colors of heaven and earth changed.
The original up-and-down orientation has become left-and-right, and the original horizontal orientation has become vertical.
The left side became the earth beneath everyone's feet, and the right side transformed into the sky that all living beings look up to.
The earth generates Yin Qi, while the sky emanates yang energy.
The two energies, one yin and one yang, transformed into two millstones of heaven and earth, grinding towards the people in the middle.
If an ordinary Primordial Spirit cultivator were to fall into this situation, they would feel as if the entire world had collapsed, and they would be completely disoriented.
However, Ning Qi emitted a burst of five-colored divine light, instantly stabilizing the entire space.
Qin Minghao stared at the yin and yang energies that had been created by the Formation, and with a sudden realization, he unleashed a sword strike!
The two opposing forces, black and white, managed to temporarily hold up the two millstones.
"Ren Zongwu, you two have some nerve!"
The demons roared in anger, never expecting that after the palace doors closed, Ren Zong and Wu Dao would join forces and even trap them within their grasp.
It seems they had this plan from the beginning, but then they suddenly said they wanted to cooperate. Cooperation my ass!
The Bull Demons transformed into their physical forms, and within the Formation's boundary, several towering demonic figures instantly appeared, helping Qin Minghao withstand the killing force of the Heaven and Earth Millstone array.
Seeing this, Wang Ye also unleashed his three heads, six arms, and hundred-foot- Military Sha form to join the fight.
The other True Disciple also displayed their unique skills one by one, unleashing a barrage of attacks, determined to cleave through the Formation's boundaries.
Ning Qi merely stabilized the situation and did not rush to make a move.
He wanted to see just how far the demons like Niu Man were capable.
Wu Dao's mastery of Formation was indeed formidable. Without his intervention, neither the humans nor the demons could find a way to break the Formation, and could only fight against it within its Formation.
Although they have temporarily held off the enemy, there is still another person outside.
Sure enough, Ning Qi had just had this thought.
Suddenly, seven enormous stars appeared out of thin air above the Formation, forming the Big Dipper Formation. Starlight of various colors shone down, instantly plunging everyone inside the formation into danger once again.
With a roar, a faint blue divine light appeared on the surface of his massive black Ox Skin hide.
He automatically positioned himself above the crowd, and a series of colorful starlight descended like a comet's sharp sword.
Pfft! Pfft!
In the blink of an eye, blood rained down from the sky, but Niu Man remained silent.
Seeing this, the other demons crowded around and joined forces to fight against the Starlight Sword with their powerful bodies.
However, their Movement Method were far inferior to those of the bull-like demons; some were nearly cut in half at the waist, while others had their forelimbs and hind claws severed...
"Get out of the way! Only I can withstand Ren Zong's attacks!"
He roared to the sky, and a mountain seal appeared in his mouth. The mountain seal emitted chaotic mist, blocking all the starlight and wisdom swords in the sky.
The chaotic mist trembled violently!
Seemingly anticipating Niu Man's methods, Ren Zongwu Dao, standing outside the Formation, unleashed his ultimate move.
Above the realm of the Formation, several more illusory stars appeared, which were Ren Zong drawing upon the power of the stars of the heavens to suppress them.
In addition, Wu Dao seemed to have set up another killing formation within the Formation, intertwined with the previous Formation.
Within it, the millstone of heaven and earth tightened more and more, seemingly grinding away even the void itself.
Flames of various attributes enveloped the entire array, scorching everyone's physical bodies Primordial Spirit.
Seeing the intensity of the battle and fearing that the others would be unable to withstand it, Ning Qi finally made his move.
A five-colored rainbow light rose from behind Ning Qi, growing larger and larger. It was the Jade Warmth and Smoke Technique that he had used during his battle with Chu Xiaotian.
The five-colored rainbow light had taken another step forward compared to before. The five colors wove together to form a spherical defensive shield, seemingly both real and illusory. It expanded in an instant, covering everyone inside the formation.
Everyone suddenly felt a sense of lightness, as all attacks were blocked by the five-colored rainbow light shield.
The countless star-shaped swords that struck it only caused a slight ripple.
The yin and yang energies that had been combined were forcefully pushed away!
As for the various elemental flames rising from within, they were easily extinguished by a shower of five-colored rainbow light!
Upon seeing this, everyone's jaws nearly dropped to the floor. Was Senior Brother Ning really this fierce?
Without experiencing the same attack firsthand, one will never know just how strong Ning Qi truly is.
Although the members of the Wuji Sword Sect witnessed Ning Qi's battle with Chu Xiaotian, they did not actually feel Chu Xiaotian's strength.
Now, they personally experienced the power of Ren Zong and Wu Dao, and felt a profound sense of powerlessness, as if they were trapped in hell!
But Ning Qi easily pulled them back from hell.
As for the Bull Demon King and the other demons, looking at the terrible, bloody wounds on their bodies, even though they were Demon Beast with extremely formidable physical defenses, they could not withstand the combined power of the two prodigies.
However, Ning Qi merely emitted a rainbow light, which blocked the terrifying attack that was enough to kill them; it was as if it were a dream.
Before they could even process what had happened, their vision blurred for a moment, and when it cleared again, they found themselves back inside the Golden Palace.
It turned out that Ning Qi had broken through Wu Dao's two killing formations in the blink of an eye!
"How is this possible?"
"What happened? Why was my Formation dispelled?"
Ren Zong and Wu Dao were both stunned, completely unaware of what had happened.
I just heard the screams of the bull demon and the others, how come they're out in the blink of an eye?
The two men instantly scanned the crowd with their Primordial Spirit power and discovered that, apart from Ning Qi, everyone else had injuries of varying degrees.
The two immediately focused their attention on Ning Qi, for only an unharmed Ning Qi could provide an answer to the current situation.
