Defeat Di Jiang, Saintly Might Descends!

Di Jiang's heart sank, his expression growing increasingly grave.

Unable to find an effective countermeasure, he could only flicker and shift, secretly searching for a gap to escape the Returning Ruins.

As long as he could break free from this Prison Realm and return to the outside world, his spatial techniques would be unimpeded.

At this moment, Di Jiang felt both a trace of relief and a hint of regret.

If not for his arrogance, stepping into the Returning Ruins with a "try it out" mindset—

With his mastery of space, Beiming could never have easily trapped him inside.

Now, though he had broadened his horizons and witnessed this divine ability, he had also cornered himself into danger.

"Di Jiang," Beiming said coldly:

"Outside, you could indeed dodge, but now that you're in the net, can you still escape? Returning Ruins, draw!"

Though equipment and spirit treasures were important, Beiming had not neglected the development of his own divine abilities.

In an instant, the abyss of the Returning Ruins rumbled violently, endless tidal waves churning, unleashing a terrifying gravitational force.

This invisible power bound Di Jiang's body tightly, even his spatial shifts being suppressed.

In Beiming's eyes, divine light blazed: "Within the Returning Ruins, everything is under my control.

Force and Qi, time and space—none are exceptions."

Di Jiang's body shook violently, the invisible force pressing in from all sides, making it impossible for him to move an inch. He could only layer spatial barriers to protect himself.

Layer upon layer of spatial walls manifested around him, only to be shattered continuously, emitting cracking sounds.

Beiming's expression remained calm as he raised the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler high:

"Ancestor Wizard Di Jiang, let this battle end here. We should also go see how the four fellow daoists outside are faring in their fight."

During the War between the Wu and Yao clans, Emperor Taiyi of the East, relying on the Chaos Bell, could suppress six Ancestor Wizards alone—this shows how terrifying the suppression of a supreme treasure can be.

Without the Chaos Bell, if he had chosen any other Top-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure from the Demon Race's Treasure Trove, Taiyi would likely only match three Ancestor Wizards at best.

The Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, carrying the momentum of Opening Heaven and Earth, slammed down heavily;

Layer after layer of spatial barriers shattered instantly, cracking sounds echoing without end.

The Ruler Shadow blasted straight into Di Jiang's chest, unleashing a roar that shook heaven and earth.

"Boom!!"

Space trembled, a violent surge of air exploded, and the entire Returning Ruins quaked in response.

Di Jiang's chest caved in sharply, his body shuddering violently as he spat out a mouthful of blood. The Blood Mist turned into a crimson cloud, churning through the void of the Returning Ruins.

His face pale, yet his expression remained open and unyielding. Clasping his fists, he declared loudly: "Fellow Daoist Beiming, in today's battle, you have won.

I can assert that among the Twelve Ancestor Wizards, any one of them, if facing you alone, would meet no different outcome!"

His words rang out with boldness and valor; though defeated, there was not a trace of fear.

Meanwhile, the battle outside remained deadlocked.

The Refining Heaven Furnace hovered in midair, its walls flowing with endless Daoist patterns, radiating a heavy might, firmly shielding Nüwa and Fuxi.

Nüwa's expression was solemn, both hands gripping her Personal Spirit Treasure, the Creation God Staff;

Magic power surged, the staff's body blazing with brilliant light, a profound mystery of creation flowing forth, reinforcing the Refining Heaven Furnace.

The Creation God Staff contained the Laws of Creation, with boundless wondrous uses.

However, this spirit treasure leaned toward functionality, lacking strong offensive or defensive capabilities on its own;

But one of its abilities was to greatly enhance the power of other spirit treasures.

Under the Creation God Staff's enhancement, the Refining Heaven Furnace's radiance swelled, forming a thick barrier that stubbornly withstood the overwhelming bombardment.

The Weather Ancestor Wizard, She Bi Shi, spread his arms wide, letting out a savage roar, instantly triggering a drastic shift in the weather atop Mount Buzhou Summit.

In an instant, gales howled, rain poured in torrents, lightning and thunder wove into a net, and hail fell like ten thousand arrows;

All manner of weather changes transformed into Heavenly Might divine abilities, hammering against the Refining Heaven Furnace's defense, causing the furnace to ring out repeatedly.

"Golden Sharpness!"

The Golden Ancestor Wizard, Ru Shou, roared, his body blazing with golden light. Countless sharp Qi converged, turning into boundless blades and sword edges, madly slicing at the Refining Heaven Furnace's defense.

Harsh scraping sounds came from the furnace walls, sparks flying.

Without the Creation God Staff's enhancement, the Refining Heaven Furnace alone would likely have already buckled under the strain.

Fuxi's expression was grave, but he showed no sign of retreat;

His ten fingers moved, plucking Fuxi's Qin. The qin's notes rang out sharply, the melody echoing through the void, carrying a murderous intent.

As the qin's sound vibrated, Sword Qi responded in kind. The newly acquired Changge Sword soared into the air;

With the qin's resonance, the sword light was fierce, slashing and cutting through the enemy formation.

Though the Changge Sword was not fully refined, it could still be used with some effort.

Two spirit treasures attuned to the Dao of melody joined forces, unleashing power far beyond the ordinary.

Under Fuxi's urging, the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler and Fuxi's Qin resonated in a wondrous harmony of "Musical Slaughter."

The two Ancestor Wizards burned with high Fighting spirit, their auras surging to the heavens as they revealed their true forms, their baleful presence exceptionally fierce.

She Bi Shi: a human face on a beast's body, ears like a dog's, green snakes dangling from those ears.

Ru Shou: a human face on a tiger's body, clad in golden scales, wings sprouting from his shoulders, a snake piercing his left ear, two dragons beneath his feet.

They not only unleashed divine abilities but also clashed head-on with their Ancestor Wizard Physical Bodies.

Massive fists and sharp claws smashed directly against the Refining Heaven Furnace, erupting in thunderous booms.

Nüwa's aura remained steady, but a hint of strain showed on her expression.

Facing the onslaught of two Ancestor Wizards, she had to focus entirely on maintaining her defense, with no chance to launch an attack.

Fuxi's Qin and sword worked in tandem; the qin's notes grew more urgent, sword light crisscrossing the void.

Though they could inflict some damage on Ru Shou and She Bi Shi, it was merely superficial, not enough to halt the two Ancestor Wizards' frenzied assault.

The musical attacks of Fuxi's Qin could harm both the Physical Body and the Primordial Spirit, with greater emphasis on the latter.

But their opponents were Ancestor Wizards!

They simply had no Primordial Spirit to speak of, so naturally, one could not strike at an empty target.

This meant a portion of Fuxi's offensive capabilities was rendered useless.

"Ha ha ha!"

Ru Shou laughed uproariously, his voice carrying a sharp, piercing edge, his eyes brimming with contempt:

"Your strength is nothing more than this!"

She Bi Shi's face was cold and stern, his gaze locked onto the Refining Heaven Furnace as he barked:

"Ru Shou, don't be careless! We haven't broken through their defense yet!

We don't know how Big Brother is faring—we must finish this quickly!"

"Tch!" Ru Shou snorted disdainfully, full of scorn: "Big Brother doesn't need your worry..."

Before Ru Shou could finish, two figures materialized in the void.

Bei Ming held the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler, his imposing aura yet to subside.

Di Jiang, pale-faced with blood staining his chest, still stood tall and unbowed at his side.

Seeing this, Nüwa and Fuxi's spirits lifted, joy flashing in their eyes: "Bei Ming!"

Any discerning observer could tell the outcome of their one-on-one duel. Now it was three against three, and the tide had turned.

"Big Brother..." Ru Shou's eyes trembled as he stared at Di Jiang in disbelief.

In his mind, his invincible elder brother had actually been defeated by someone else—this sight nearly overturned everything he believed.

Bei Ming turned his head to look at Di Jiang and said, "Ancestor Wizard Di Jiang, you don't mind if we outnumber you now, do you?"

Di Jiang replied in a deep voice, "Our confrontation began with equal numbers on both sides. There is no talk of outnumbering."

"Good!"

Bei Ming gripped the Hongmeng Measuring Ruler tightly, its body flowing with radiant light as he prepared to launch an attack.

But at that very moment—

An overwhelming, vast pressure descended from beyond the heavens, enveloping the entire Primordial Wilderness!
