The silver-armored man thrust both hands forward. A pair of Yin-Yang Mother-and-Child Blades spun, forming a Taiji vortex. After realizing how formidable Lu Xiaotian was, he had not thought of counterattacking at the first opportunity. Instead, he merely did everything he could to stall for time, hoping to let the immortal army under his command recover, or to wait for reinforcements from another immortal army. So long as he could keep Lu Xiaotian here, the losses before him would be entirely worthwhile, and he would have rendered a service rather than committed a fault. The Heavenly Punishment Palace would certainly reward him handsomely afterward.
The Taiji vortex formed by the Yin-Yang Mother-and-Child Blades contained both yin and yang. Under their desperate defense, it indeed possessed considerable defensive power. Unfortunately, the disparity between their strengths was not something ordinary methods could easily erase. The immortal army under his command had already suffered heavy losses beneath the Demon-Suppressing Tower's sonic killing art. The sound waves formed blades, and those at the level of immortals were directly sliced into pieces beneath them, their blood scattering across the void. Even some of the weaker True Immortals were shaken until they vomited blood.
After all, these were immortal soldiers dispatched by the Heavenly Punishment Palace. Several Profound Immortals brought out a few immortal artifacts and, by joining forces, barely managed to withstand the Demon-Suppressing Tower's edge.
However, before the Profound Immortals among the immortal army could catch their breath, the shockwaves generated by Lu Xiaotian's battle with the silver-armored man came crashing over. The united defensive formation of these Profound Immortals, who had only just steadied themselves, broke apart. Some were injured by the clash between Heavenly Immortal powerhouses, while others were wounded by the sound waves of the Demon-Suppressing Tower.
Boom! The Demon-Suppressing Tower
