"Hmph, everyone retreat a thousand miles," Lu Ya exchanged glances with the other great Holy Lords before giving the order.
The remaining fifty billion-plus army dared not delay and quickly retreated. On the Six Great Sacred Dynasties' side, only Old Ancestor Lu Ya, Old Ancestor Yin Yang, Old Ancestor Qian Kun, and the other six titans remained.
The Eastern Alliance's Old Ancestor Black Mountain, Old Ancestor Tian Yin, Old Ancestor Xuan Yang, and the Western Alliance's Old Ancestor Sky Sword, Old Ancestor Primordial Beginning, Old Ancestor Purple Thunder, and other top combatants from both alliances nodded slightly to each other, understanding implicitly. They knew Lu Ya and the others feared they would activate the formation again and intended to resolve the issue through high-level combat.
Old Ancestor Black Mountain and the others were naturally not to be trifled with. The fact that they established two great alliances under the watchful eyes of various powers was not due to luck, but was fought for. Even if they were slightly weaker than Lu Ya and the others, the difference was very limited. Otherwise, they would have been annexed by the Six Great Sacred Dynasties long ago and wouldn't have waited until now.
"Black Mountain, you are truly ruthless to have sacrificed ten billion cultivators alive," Lu Ya said coldly, his surging magical power causing the surrounding airflow to churn backward.
"Heh heh, we're all the same, no need to pretend to be a good person," Old Ancestor Black Mountain was unfazed by Lu Ya's sarcastic remarks. In any case, at this point, nothing they said mattered.
"Lu Ya, let's do it. No need to waste more words on them," Ancestor Tun Tian's eyes flashed with cold light. This war had nearly wiped out half of his accumulated forces, and he was already filled with murderous intent.
"Alright, let's do it," Lu Ya did not object.
Old Ancestor Black Mountain and the other six also moved out in unison, each finding their opponent.
Finally, Old Ancestor Lu Ya faced Old Ancestor Black Mountain, Old Ancestor Yin Yang faced Old Ancestor Tian Yin, Old Ancestor Qian Kun faced Old Ancestor Xuan Yang, Ancestor Tun Tian faced Old Ancestor Sky Sword, Old Ancestor Golden Body faced Old Ancestor Primordial Beginning, and Old Ancestor Destruction faced Old Ancestor Purple Thunder.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The twelve individuals began fighting simultaneously. The immense combat fluctuations caused the ground below to crack continuously. The released energy was like giant swords, sweeping across the void with the sound of "clang, clang, clang..." – terrifying to the extreme.
Each of these twelve individuals possessed extraordinary talent. After awakening their innate abilities, they had continuously accumulated Spiritual Power. It could be said that each of them had Spiritual Power as profound as later Saints.
Of course, this was only in terms of Spiritual Power. In terms of realm, they were far from Saints. Moreover, Saints could mobilize the power of a region of heaven and earth to assist them. Lu Ya and the others were still far from being their match.
At this moment, these twelve individuals were like twelve ancient beasts. Their immense Spiritual Power continuously collided in the void, causing the entire space to tremble. The earth undulated like waves, constantly rolling.
"Old Ancestor Black Mountain, die!" Old Ancestor Lu Ya roared. Boundless flames surged from the void towards Lu Ya, forming a scorching sea of fire around him.
The heat continued to surge towards Lu Ya. Lu Ya sat cross-legged in the center of the sea of fire, constantly forming hand seals. Circles of flames wrapped around his body, and his scattered hair flew upwards against the wind.
Gradually, the entire sea of fire began to spin rapidly, forming a massive vortex of flames that continuously devoured and condensed the flames. In the end, an incredibly huge fireball appeared in the sky.
This fireball was like another sun, hanging high in the sky. The scorching airflow baked the Hong Huang land. Rivers within a radius of a hundred thousand miles dried up, and plants appeared listless.
Old Ancestor Black Mountain looked at the giant fireball with an extremely solemn expression. He no longer dared to hide anything, forming hand seals frantically, as fast as illusions.
Everything in the world has a shadow, and mountains naturally have shadows. But at this moment, the shadows of countless towering mountains within a radius of hundreds of millions of miles centered on the battlefield suddenly detached from their bodies, transforming into black, illusory square shadows that shot towards Old Ancestor Black Mountain.
Soon, a ten-thousand-zhang mountain phantom appeared behind Old Ancestor Black Mountain. As the black square shadows continuously merged into it, the phantom gradually solidified. An ancient will emerged, a will that was incredibly ancient and powerful, as if the wills of countless mountains had gathered together.
"Rumble..."
The giant scorching fireball collided with the ten-thousand-zhang mountain phantom. The entire sky was half red and half black, appearing incredibly bizarre.
The powerful shockwaves mercilessly destroyed everything around them in a short period. Even Old Ancestor Yin Yang and the others, who were fighting, paused to watch this terrifying scene.
As the smoke and dust dissipated, the battered figures of Lu Ya and Black Mountain were revealed. Both were not lightly injured. Old Ancestor Lu Ya had several corrosive blood holes on his body, while Old Ancestor Black Mountain was worse off, with half his body burned by flames and bleeding profusely. Clearly, Old Ancestor Lu Ya had the upper hand.
The two glared at each other, gritting their teeth, wishing they could tear each other apart, but they had no intention of fighting further. Both knew that continuing would only result in a mutually destructive outcome.
Thus, they both looked almost simultaneously at the people on their respective sides who were still fighting, the meaning clear: the rest would be left to them.
The expressions of Old Ancestor Yin Yang and the others became somewhat solemn. Originally, they all thought that although Old Ancestor Black Mountain and the others were powerful, with their own skill, it wouldn't be difficult to deal with them, even if it cost something. Now, seeing the outcome of the battle between Old Ancestor Lu Ya and Old Ancestor Black Mountain, they realized they had underestimated Old Ancestor Black Mountain and the others.
With this realization, Old Ancestor Yin Yang and the others no longer held back, unleashing their ultimate moves. Faced with this situation, Old Ancestor Tian Yin and the others also revealed their trump cards.
"Ha!" Old Ancestor Yin Yang shouted. Two streams of Yin and Yang primordial energies appeared in the void behind him. As soon as these two energies appeared, countless surrounding spiritual energies seemed to flock towards the Yang energy as if it were a king.
The Yin and Yang primordial energies continuously intertwined, finally forming an ancient Taiji diagram in the void. The Taiji diagram spun continuously, and the Yin Yang eyes ceaselessly absorbed the surrounding spiritual energy, emitting an aura that seemed capable of annihilating all existence, making one's heart palpitate immensely.
Ancestor Tun Tian did not lag behind. He cupped his hands in front of him, and the void actually began to twist. With a "hiss," the space shattered before everyone's horrified eyes, forming a mysterious bottomless black hole.
As soon as the black hole appeared, broken mountain fragments, broken spears and swords from the battlefield, and even the surrounding light were swallowed into it. It was terrifying.
Old Ancestor Purple Thunder also unleashed his ultimate move. He clenched his right hand, forming a ten-thousand-zhang lightning bolt. The azure lightning illuminated a region of heaven and earth, like a supreme ruler looking down from above.
Old Ancestor Sky Sword unleashed his supreme sword Dao divine ability. The phantom of a sky-reaching giant sword appeared in the sky, emitting a stern aura that judged all and annihilated all.
The great titans continuously unleashed various supreme divine abilities, completely disrupting this region of heaven and earth. Mountains and rivers were overturned, the sky was flooded, the sun and moon lost their light, and the entire world seemed on the verge of returning to Chaos.
"Bang, bang, bang..."
Nine massive impact sounds suddenly rang out on the battlefield. Old Ancestor Lu Ya and Old Ancestor Black Mountain looked in surprise at the nine black giant coffins descending from the sky. Even Ancestor Tun Tian and the others, who were in fierce combat, stopped fighting.
Who was courting death? Didn't they know this was the battlefield of the Six Great Sacred Dynasties and the two great alliances?
