Ren Xiaoyao is surging all over Golden Spiritual Energy, like raging magma, hot and violent, standing proudly in front of the Lingxiao Sacred Sect Protection Array.

His eyes were tightly locked on the spiritual power matrix shrouded in light, and the burning desire for battle in his eyes ignited the air around him. The pressure of spiritual power emanating from his body made the surrounding space overwhelmed, and he let out a dull wail.

Grand Elder's hands could not stop trembling, and he held the ancient jade pendant that activated Sect Protection Array solemnly and devoutly, muttering something in his mouth.

The spell seemed to be wrapped in ancient mysterious power, and every syllable carried a chilling intimidation. As the spell was uttered, the runes on the jade pendant lit up one by one, and dazzling rays of light shot out to all directions of the Lingxiao Holy Sect like meteors chasing the moon.

Wherever the light passes, the air seems to be purified, filled with an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, and the surrounding space trembles slightly, as if responding to this ancient power in awe.

Watching the formation start up, Grand Elder felt as if a condiment bottle had been knocked over, with mixed feelings.

He fully expected that the powerful power of Sect Protection Array could turn the tide, but the anxiety about the unknown outcome of the battle weighed heavily on his heart like a huge boulder.

He knows better than anyone else that Sect Protection Array is Lingxiao Sacred Sect's last support, carrying the ardent expectations of the ancestors of all generations. Once it fails, Lingxiao Sacred Sect will be doomed.

"You must block it, this is our only chance..." He prayed silently in his heart countless times, and his forehead was already covered with dense beads of sweat, each drop reflecting his inner anxiety.

In an instant, Lingxiao Sacred Sect was tightly wrapped by a layer of Dazzling Light. In the light, Ancient Runes and the formation pattern were looming, intertwined with each other to form a huge spiritual power matrix.

In the matrix, the runes jumped and flickered, releasing powerful and heart-stopping energy fluctuations, like an insurmountable solid barrier.

The light continued to flash, and the runes kept flowing, seeming to whisper about the past glorious years of the Lingxiao Sacred Sect. Each ray of light embodies the hard work and expectations of the ancestors. These runes seemed to be alive, jumping smartly in the light, interpreting the glory of the Holy Sect.

The moment Sect Protection Array started, a powerful gravitational field suddenly formed, wildly involving the nearby airflow, sand, stones and power fragments, turning into a huge power vortex, just like Ancient Ferocious Beasts slowly rotating around the Lingxiao Sacred Sect.

The power in the vortex continues to compress and condense, emitting a dull roar, just like the angry roar of an ancient giant beast.

The surrounding space was arbitrarily distorted by this force, and ripples appeared clearly visible to the naked eye. It was as if a huge boulder was thrown into the calm lake, creating layers of waves. The scenery became blurry and illusory, and the light was distorted into strange light and shadow, as if it had entered a chaotic time and space.

Ren Xiaoyao keenly felt the powerful power of Sect Protection Array, and could not help but frown slightly.

He knew in his heart that this formation embodies the countless efforts and extraordinary wisdom of the Lingxiao Sacred Sect's ancestors, and it would not be easy to break through. However, there was no intention of shrinking in his eyes. Instead, his desire to fight became more intense, and his burning fighting spirit seemed to set the world on fire.

"Interesting, this battle has just entered the main point, let's see what this Sect Protection Array can do to me!"

The corners of Ren Xiaoyao's mouth raised slightly, revealing a confident and calm smile. Golden Spiritual Energy's whole body boiled again, and the light was like a raging flame, making his figure taller and taller, as if Invincible War God had descended into the world, exuding a frightening aura.

The boiling of spiritual power made the surrounding air extremely hot, as if we were in a blazing sea of fire. The ground was parched and cracked, and the sound of "cracking" could be heard endlessly, playing an exciting prelude to this battle.

Ren Xiaoyao took a deep breath and mobilized the spiritual power in his body with all his strength. Every ounce of spiritual power rushed happily through the meridians, like a warrior eager to fight.

He abandoned the fancy seal movements and did not need complicated spells, but simply and crudely gathered the spiritual power in the palm of his hand.

Following his movements, the spiritual power in his palm quickly condensed, forming a spiritual power ball that exuded dazzling light. The runes in the ball flashed and jumped, containing terrifying power that could destroy the world and destroy the world. It seemed that it would explode at any time and turn everything into powder.

Ren Xiaoyao did not hesitate and threw the spiritual power ball directly towards Sect Protection Array.

The spiritual power ball streaked across the sky like a meteor, and the space where it passed vibrated and made a "buzzing" sound, as if the space was groaning in pain.

The moment it collided with the large array of light, a deafening loud noise erupted, and powerful energy fluctuations raged. The surrounding space was shaken by the impact, as if the fragile glass would break at any time, and tiny Space Cracks loomed.

However, Sect Protection Array's light only flickered a few times, and then quickly returned to stability. The spiritual power ball was bounced away, turning into bits of spiritual power and dissipating in the air, as if it had never appeared before, making Ren Xiaoyao more and more aware of the difficulty of this battle.

"Huh, you do have some skills."

Ren Xiaoyao snorted coldly, and the fighting spirit in his eyes became more intense. His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate Sect Protection Array and look directly into its core.

He gathered his spiritual power again. This time, the speed of the gathering was faster and the power was stronger. In the blink of an eye, a spiritual power ball was formed in the palm of his hand that was several times larger than before. The runes on the surface of the ball flickered even more violently. The released spiritual power fluctuations distorted the surrounding air, and even the light seemed to be stretched and deformed by this force.

Ren Xiaoyao shouted loudly and pushed the spiritual ball towards Sect Protection Array with all his strength.

The spiritual power ball hit the formation with an indomitable momentum, and there was a loud "boom", like the sky and the earth falling apart. The light of the formation flashed violently, the runes became dim, and the entire formation trembled violently, like a lonely boat in a violent storm, teetering on the edge of the turbulent waves.

But it still resisted tenaciously without any sign of collapse, showing the strong resilience and defense of Sect Protection Array.

Just when Ren Xiaoyao was about to attack again, a low roar came from Sect Protection Array.

Immediately afterwards, a huge figure slowly emerged, exuding a powerful aura, like the God of War returning from Ancient Battlefield.

"This is..."

Ren Xiaoyao Pupils shrank, a strong sense of crisis surged in his heart, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, as if it was about to burst through his chest, but there was no fear in his eyes, the battle flames burned more fiercely, and the raging fire seemed to burn away all obstacles in front of him.

"Junior, how dare you challenge me Lingxiao Sacred Sect, today is the day you die!"

The figure roared, and the sound echoed like a rolling Heavenly Thunder between the heaven and the earth, causing the surrounding mountains to tremble, and the rocks on the mountain to roll down one after another, as if they were afraid of this powerful force.

Ren Xiaoyao took a closer look and saw that it was actually the will of the Lingxiao Sacred Sect's ancestor Lingxiao Heavenly King.

Lingxiao Heavenly King's will is suspended in the air, exuding an ancient mysterious aura, and his eyes are filled with endless majesty and murderous intent. He is holding a huge halberd in his hand. The body of the halberd is flashing with an icy cold light, as if it can tear apart anything that blocks it. The runes on the halberd flash, telling the story of the glorious achievements of the past. Each rune carries a thrilling battle story.

"It turns out that Sect Protection Array has this secret. Today's battle will be exciting."

Ren Xiaoyao took a deep breath to calm down the shock in his heart. He knew that the opponent in front of him was powerful and he must go all out, otherwise he would be doomed.

"So what if Lingxiao Heavenly King, I will smash this Sect Protection Array to pieces today!"

Ren Xiaoyao shouted loudly, and the Golden Spiritual Energy around his body skyrocketed wildly. The light was more dazzling than the sun, illuminating the entire world, and even the distant sky was dyed with a layer of golden brilliance.

He made no unnecessary movements, but simply and roughly gathered his spiritual power crazily throughout his body. His whole body seemed to turn into a huge source of spiritual power, exuding a frightening aura, and the surrounding space was distorted and deformed by his spiritual power.

Seeing this, Lingxiao Heavenly King snorted coldly, waved his halberd, and the tip of the halberd passed through the void. A half-moon-shaped black Sword Qi roared towards Ren Xiaoyao. The space it passed was torn as easily as paper, and the black cracks were like hideous scars, which was shocking.

Ren Xiaoyao did not dare to be careless, and instantly poured out his spiritual power like a tide, building a dense layer of Spiritual Energy Shield in front of him. Every trace of spiritual power was tightly arranged, like a solid barrier, exuding a faint golden light.

Sword Qi hit the shield, making a harsh friction sound. The shield trembled violently, and the spiritual power on the surface rippled due to the impact, but it still resisted tenaciously. The golden light flickered slightly under the impact of the black Sword Qi, but it never went out.

However, the impact made Ren Xiaoyao's arms numb, and his feet unconsciously took a few steps back on the ground. The soles of his shoes rubbed against the ground, leaving deep marks.

Immediately afterwards, Lingxiao Heavenly King threw the halberd into the air, and the halberd instantly turned into countless halberd shadows. Each halberd shadow carried a fierce wind and stabbed Ren Xiaoyao from all directions.

Ren Xiaoyao's whole body's spiritual energy surged, vibrating at a strange frequency, forming a powerful repulsive force field. Under the influence of this repulsive force, the halberd shadows deviated from the trajectory when they approached him, and their directions were chaotic, as if they were being fiddled with by invisible hands.

At the same time, Ren Xiaoyao's spiritual power gathered in the palm of his hand to form a spiritual power ball again. With precise control of the spiritual power, he shot the spiritual power ball in a strange arc towards the place where the halberd shadows were densest.

The spiritual power ball collided with the halberd shadow, triggering a series of explosions, with flashes of light and smoke filling the air.

The aftermath of the explosion impacted the surrounding space, setting off bursts of spiritual storms, rolling up the sand and rocks on the ground to high altitudes, and then slamming them down again. Countless potholes instantly appeared on the ground, as if they had been bombarded by artillery shells.

But even so, several halberd shadows still broke through the defense, leaving several blood marks on Ren Xiaoyao's shoulders and legs. The blood flowed out and dyed his clothes red.

Seeing this scene, Grand Elder's heart tightened, his hands clenched into fists unconsciously, his nails dug deeply into his palms, and blood overflowed from between his fingers, but he was completely unaware of it.

"Lingxiao Heavenly King, we must win, he is our last hope..." His eyes were fixed on the battlefield, full of anxiety and tension, and his body was shaking slightly, as if he was under tremendous pressure.

Lingxiao Heavenly King Seeing this, he quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered words.

Suddenly, nine huge fire dragons appeared in the sky. Each fire dragon was dozens of feet long, with blazing fire burning all over its body. They roared and rushed towards Ren Xiaoyao.

Wherever the fire dragon went, the air was ignited, making a "crackling" sound, and the ground was scorched, with deep ravines appearing, and thick smoke billowing from the gullies.

Ren Xiaoyao immediately purifies and compresses the spiritual power in the body to form a stream of extremely cold spiritual power. Using the spiritual power as a medium, it instantly condenses the surrounding water vapor into a thick layer of Ice Crystals shield.

At the same time, Ren Xiaoyao guides the spiritual power in the Ice Crystals shield to form a powerful Devouring Power. When the fire dragon approaches, the Ice Crystals shield swallows up the high temperature and flame energy emitted by the fire dragon, weakening the power of the fire dragon.

Unwilling to be swallowed, the fire dragon twisted its body crazily, trying to break through the shackles of the Ice Crystals shield. The blazing flames collided with the cold Ice Crystals, making a "sizzling" sound. With the sound, a large amount of water vapor rose up, covering the entire battlefield in a white mist. The mist was also mixed with flames and Ice Crystals fragments, like a fantasy and dangerous dream.

But in this fierce confrontation, cracks began to appear in Ice Crystals's shield. Ren Xiaoyao had to continue to inject spiritual power to maintain its stability. His face became paler and his breathing became rapid.

But Lingxiao Heavenly King did not stop there. He used Martial Dao again, and his hands were dancing rapidly in the air. Countless ice picks shot out from his palms. These ice picks flashed with cold light and were extremely fast. They arrived in front of Ren Xiaoyao in an instant.

Ren Xiaoyao injects spiritual energy into the ground beneath his feet in a spiral shape, triggering a chain reaction of spiritual energy on the ground. The ground quickly rises, forming a spiritual earth wall.

There are strange spiritual patterns flowing on the surface of the earth wall. These lines contain powerful adsorption power. After the ice pick hits the earth wall, it is adsorbed on it and cannot move forward anymore. It breaks into pieces and turns into ice particles and splashes everywhere.

Ice ballast splashed in the air, reflecting colorful light, like a strange ice rain. Under the sunlight, it looked like a dream, but this beautiful scene hid a fatal danger.

However, some of the ice picks still bypassed the earthen wall and stabbed Ren Xiaoyao. He was unable to avoid it, and several wounds were made on his arms and back. The coldness instantly invaded his body, making him shiver.

In the fierce confrontation, Lingxiao Heavenly King displayed a strange Martial Dao.

He pressed his hands on the ground, and the earth began to tremble instantly. Sharp rocks protruded from the ground, like sharp blades, stabbing towards Ren Xiaoyao.

Ren Xiaoyao sensed the abnormal fluctuations in the spiritual power on the ground, and immediately injected the spiritual power into his legs, resonating with the spiritual power on the ground at a special spiritual frequency.

Under the influence of resonance, Ren Xiaoyao's figure becomes illusory, as if it has blended into the surrounding space.

Sharp rocks passed through his illusory figure, but could not cause any harm to him.

At the same time, Ren Xiaoyao took advantage of the gap between Lingxiao Heavenly King and Martial Dao to compress the spiritual power of his body to the limit, forming a spiritual core containing terrifying energy.

He shot the spiritual power core towards where Lingxiao Heavenly King was. The spiritual power core was like a small sun, dragging a long golden tail flame and galloping towards Lingxiao Heavenly King. Wherever it passed, the space seemed to be burned, leaving a golden trace.

Lingxiao Heavenly King waved his halberd to resist. The halberd collided with the spiritual core, erupting with a dazzling light and a huge impact. Lingxiao Heavenly King was shocked to the point of numbness in his arms and his figure shook a few times. This was the first time since the battle that he was at a clear disadvantage.

Lingxiao Heavenly King sensed the danger, and his spiritual power exploded instantly, trying to resist the fatal blow with his powerful spiritual power.

When the spiritual power core collided with the spiritual power of Lingxiao Heavenly King, in an instant, it seemed as if time had stopped and the whole world fell into deathly silence.

Immediately afterwards, a deafening loud noise exploded between the sky and the earth, and powerful energy fluctuations swept away in all directions like a raging tide.

Centered on the collision point, black cracks were torn out in the surrounding space, as if End of the World was coming, and a terrifying Energy Turbulence sound was faintly heard from the cracks.

Wherever this wave of Energy Storm went, the mountains were flattened, the ground was plowed into strips of Bottomless Ravines, and the originally clear rivers dried up instantly, leaving only the bare riverbed.

Spiritual Energy Vortex, which originally revolved around the Lingxiao Sacred Sect, was also disrupted by this force. The spiritual power in the vortex was like a wild horse running wild, scurrying around and constantly impacting Sect Protection Array. The light of the array flickered on and off under the impact, as if it would go out at any time.

Ren Xiaoyao and Lingxiao Heavenly King were both knocked away by the counter-shock force.

Ren Xiaoyao rolled dozens of times in the air before barely regaining his balance. At this time, he was bleeding from the corner of his mouth and his face was as pale as paper. The clothes on his body were torn to pieces by Energy Storm, revealing shocking wounds. The blood continued to flow along the wounds and dripped on the ground below, dyeing the land dark red.

But the fighting spirit in his eyes was still burning brightly, and that unyielding spirit seemed to declare to the world that he would never fall down easily, even if he was bruised and bruised, he would fight to the end. Lingxiao Heavenly King's will was also severely damaged, and his figure became more illusory, like a candle that could be extinguished at any time in the wind.

There were also cracks on the halberd in his hand, and it seemed that it would break at any time. The runes on the halberd dimmed, as if telling the tragedy of this battle.

"I didn't expect you to be so powerful. However, you are not qualified to defeat me Sect Protection Array!"

Lingxiao Heavenly King Although his breath was weak, he still gritted his teeth and roared unwillingly.

He inserted the halberd into the ground again, mobilizing Sect Protection Array's last strength.

In an instant, Sect Protection Array glowed brightly, with runes and patterns flashing crazily, releasing an unprecedentedly powerful energy.

This energy was like a raging tsunami, rushing toward Ren Xiaoyao. Wherever it went, the space was compressed and distorted, making a "crunching" sound.

Ren Xiaoyao Knowing that this was a critical moment of life and death, he took a deep breath, endured the severe pain in his body, and mobilized all the spiritual power in his body.

He closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and guided the flow of spiritual power in a mysterious way.

Following his guidance, the spiritual power around Ren Xiaoyao began to undergo strange changes. The originally golden spiritual power gradually became transparent, as if it had turned into the purest form of energy in the world.

These transparent spiritual powers intertwined and merged with each other to form a huge sphere of spiritual power, enveloping Ren Xiaoyao in it.

Countless mysterious runes flashed on the surface of the ball. These runes were like living creatures, constantly swimming and changing, exuding an ancient and mysterious atmosphere, as if telling the mystery of the birth of the universe, and seemed to be calling for the most primitive power in the world.

When Sect Protection Array and Energy Impact landed on the spiritual power ball, a thrilling contest began.

The spiritual sphere relies on its powerful rotation and defense to resist the energy of Sect Protection Array one by one.

Every collision of energy caused violent vibrations, and the whole world trembled, as if suffering great pain.

The energy ripples generated by the collision are like the waves stirred up by a huge stone thrown into a calm lake. Wave after wave spreads into the distance. Wherever it goes, space is distorted, time seems to be affected and becomes slow, and everything around seems to be trapped in a strange time and space chaos.

Under the impact of the spiritual power ball, the rune light on the surface began to flicker, and the rotation speed of the ball gradually slowed down. Ren Xiaoyao felt that his power was being consumed little by little. He knew that he must find a way to break through as soon as possible.

Ren Xiaoyao is in the spiritual power sphere, concentrating on controlling the operation of spiritual power.

He constantly adjusted the frequency and intensity of his spiritual power, looking for flaws in Sect Protection Array's energy.

His consciousness was immersed in the ocean of spiritual power, integrated with the spiritual power, and felt every change of energy.

At this time, he seemed to have entered an ethereal realm. All interference from the outside world was eliminated by him, leaving only the control of spiritual power and the desire for victory. There was only one belief in his mind: break through this Sect Protection Array and win this battle.

Finally, in a fierce collision, Ren Xiaoyao discovered the weak point of Sect Protection Array's energy.

He did not hesitate to concentrate the energy of the spiritual sphere on one point, and rushed towards this weak point with thunderous momentum.

This energy seemed to have gathered all the power in the world, and with the momentum of World Creation, it hit Sect Protection Array hard.

"Boom!" There was a loud noise, and the light of Sect Protection Array dimmed instantly, and the runes and patterns were shattered.

The power of the formation quickly dissipated like a flood that broke a bank. Where the light dissipated, the ruined mountain gate of the Lingxiao Sacred Sect and the horrified people were revealed.

Lingxiao Heavenly King's will completely dissipated in the air as Sect Protection Array collapsed.

Only a messy battlefield was left, and the Lingxiao Sacred Sect people were stunned and full of despair.

They looked at the scene in front of them, their hearts filled with fear and despair. The once glorious Lingxiao Sacred Sect was now crumbling under the aftermath of this battle.

Those once majestic buildings have now become ruins, and the ruins tremble in the wind, as if crying out about this disaster.

Grand Elder looked at the collapsed Sect Protection Array, his legs went weak and he almost collapsed to the ground.

His eyes were empty, full of despair and unwillingness. "How could... how could it have failed like this? Is the inheritance of the Holy Sect going to be destroyed today..." He murmured to himself, tears pouring out uncontrollably, and his heart was full of worries about the Lingxiao Sacred Sect's future and self-blame for his own inability to make a difference.

He slowly raised his head and looked at the sky that was no longer shining, as if he could see the glory of the Lingxiao Sacred Sect fading away before his eyes. The pain in his heart was like a sharp blade, piercing his soul fiercely.

"Successful!" Ren Xiaoyao breathed a long sigh of relief, with a happy smile on his face.

He slowly opened his eyes, looked at the scene in front of him, and was filled with emotions. In this battle, he paid a heavy price, but he also gained extremely precious combat experience and growth.

At this moment, he was exhausted, scarred, and in ragged clothes, but his eyes were still firm and confident, like a hero who had gone through hardships, exuding an awe-inspiring light.

He knows that this victory is just a milestone on his path of cultivation, and there are more challenges waiting for him in the future, but he is not afraid, because he is Ren Xiaoyao, a figure destined to leave a legend in the Immortal Realm.

He took a deep breath of the smoke-smelling air, feeling the joy of victory, while silently looking forward to the next challenge in his heart.

Ren Xiaoyao slowly squatted down and gently touched the cracked land under his feet with his hands. Dried blood stains spread on his fingertips. This was the mark left by this cruel battle.

He knew very well that he could barely win not only with his powerful spiritual power, but also with his tenacious will.
