Considering Tongtian's shortcomings in defense, Laozi worried that his younger brother might suffer a loss, so he lent him the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda for protection.
Tongtian stood within the formation, the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Exquisite Pagoda above his head, while controlling all four formation gates at once.
The eight Demon Saints formed pairs, attempting to find a weakness and break the formation.
But the sword formation was merciless, killing intent filling the four directions. Even with all eight Demon Saints joining forces, they were slashed until their flesh split and blood flowed. Their cries rose one after another, yet they still did not dare speak lightly of retreat.
Without an order from the Demon Emperor, how could they dare admit defeat?
With his opponents divided up, Laozi himself became idle instead. Standing upon the Taiji Diagram and holding the Panlong Bian Guai, he looked calm, but his gaze remained fixed upon every corner of the battlefield.
The moment anyone fell into a disadvantage, he would be ready to intervene and assist.
Yuanshi wished to use the Pangu Banner against the Chaos Bell, while Tongtian wanted to test the Zhuxian Sword Formation.
In this regard, Bei Ming's thoughts were similar to theirs.
If the Zhu Shen Gourd, refined through countless painstaking efforts, did not appear in a battle such as this, would that not be a waste of a heavenly treasure?
He had to admit that as his reputation grew and his strength advanced, fewer and fewer people dared provoke him before Bei Ming. Opportunities to truly fight to his heart's content had become scarce.
He had originally planned to seek out the Ancestor Wizards someday for an exchange of ideas and test the gourd's power.
Now that the opportunity stood before him, why wait any longer?
