Above Buzhou Mountain.
Xuandu stood alone amidst the Chaos Halo, his green robes fluttering slightly, his black hair flowing like ink.
He ignored the telepathic conversation between Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi, as well as the changes in the starlight of the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array.
His gaze remained fixed on the figure shrouded in Jade Purity Immortal Light opposite him.
Yuanshi Tianzun.
The Sage Yuqing, one of the Three Pure Ones, is in charge of the Chan Sect, enjoys the Heaven-Opening Merit, and is at the peak of the Fifth Heaven Heavenly Dao Sage.
At this moment, a hint of... solemnity finally appeared on the face of this Sage who had always been aloof and regarded all living beings as pawns.
" The Zenith Heaven Second Heaven..."
Yuanshi spoke slowly, his voice still indifferent, but deep within that indifference lay a barely perceptible hint of apprehension:
" Xuandu, you truly... have surprised me."
Upon hearing this, Xuandu's lips slowly curved into a smile.
The curve was faint, yet it exuded a domineering aura that transcended all laws and embodied an unparalleled sense of superiority.
"Accident?"
He slowly shook his head:
" Yuanshi, what you didn't expect... is yet to come."
The words had barely left his mouth.
Xuandu took a step forward!
"Buzz!"
A silent, ten-thousand-foot-wide rift opened up in the void!
He moved like lightning, traversing thousands of miles in an instant, and arrived right in front of Yuanshi!
There are no fancy Divine Ability, no mysterious Daoist methods.
It was just a simple punch.
A punch was thrown!
"Boom!!!"
The Chaos Color, Martial Dao True Meaning erupted from his fist!
That was neither ordinary magical power nor the Heavenly Dao Laws.
Rather, it is a power originating from the deepest, purest, and most domineering Life Origin...
Wherever the power passed, the void crumbled inch by inch, revealing the endless Chaos Turbulence behind it!
Amidst the turbulent currents, the River and Mountain Illusions evolved wildly, while Earth Fire Water Wind surged and roared. Furthermore, fragments of the primordial laws from the very beginning of World Creation scattered like exploding stars!
This punch seems simple.
However, the Martial Dao True Meaning contained within it has already touched upon the fundamental nature of the Hunyuan Great Dao!
Prove Dao With Strength, and I am the only one worthy of respect!
"Arrogant!"
A cold light flashed in Yuanshi's eyes, and he flicked his sleeve!
The Three Treasures Jade Ruyi shone brightly, and the Jade Purity Immortal Light descended as if it were real, evolving into an endless barrier of laws that stood in front of him!
Above the barrier, the patterns of the Heavenly Dao are densely packed, evolving all the order and rules since the World Creation of Great Wilderness!
This is a manifestation of the Heavenly Dao Authority!
It symbolizes Sage Act on Behalf of Heaven!
"Bang!!!"
The fist clashed violently with the barrier!
A deafening explosion, like billions of thunderbolts exploding simultaneously, instantly reverberated throughout the entire Great Wilderness!
Wherever the sound waves passed, Buzhou Mountain trembled violently, rocks crumbled, and the earth's veins surged!
The starlight of the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array swayed!
The Du Tian Divine Fiend Great Array also fluctuated violently!
Only in the center of the battlefield.
The point where the fist collides with the barrier.
The void was completely annihilated, transforming into a deep and boundless black hole!
Within the black hole, Chaos Turbulence roared wildly, and fragments of laws scattered like sharp blades, tearing apart and devouring everything around them!
"Click... click..."
A subtle yet distinct cracking sound came from above the barrier.
Yuanshi's pupils suddenly contracted!
He stared intently at the Heavenly Dao Barrier his way, his face revealing disbelief and horror for the first time!
Above the barrier, at the point where Xuandu's fist collided...
It was already covered with fine cracks!
Although the cracks have not yet spread, the barrier has not completely collapsed.
But this... how is this possible?!
The Heavenly Dao Barrier is an evolution of the Sage using the Heavenly Dao Authority, containing the Great Wilderness Order Law, and cannot be broken by anyone but Sage!
Xuandu was only at the Zenith Heaven Second Heaven. Even though his martial arts were powerful, he ultimately did not gain the approval of the Heavenly Dao and did not hold the Sage Authority!
What makes him... capable of shaking the Heavenly Dao Barrier?!
At that very moment.
"Click..."
The cracks on the Heavenly Dao Barrier spread rapidly.
Although it did not completely shatter, the fine, piercing cracking sound reverberated like thunder in the hearts of every living being!
"This... this is impossible!"
Di Jiang stared intently at the center of the battlefield, his eyes filled with shock that seemed almost tangible.
That's the Heavenly Dao Barrier!
Sage evolve with the Heavenly Dao Authority, containing the Great Wilderness Order Law, Absolute Defense that cannot be broken by anyone but Sage!
But Xuandu...
With just one punch!
With only the Martial Dao True Meaning at the second level of the Zenith Heaven Second Heaven!
It almost broke?!
"Just how powerful is the Vice Sect Master?!"
The clash of Xing Tian's axe and shield produced a piercing metallic sound, yet the sound carried a barely suppressed tremor.
It was excitement, but even more so, it was awe!
Jiu Feng stood in the center of the Du Tian Divine Fiend Great Array, their aura of fire and earth slightly disordered due to excitement.
The faint Primordial Spirit power deep within her Purple Mansion surged wildly, trying to discern the Supreme Dao Charm contained in that punch.
But what she saw...
There is only a vast, star-studded, and domineering Chaos Martial Dao True Meaning, as powerful as the creation of the world!
"Martial arts... can they really be this powerful?"
Jiu Feng murmured softly, her eyes a mixture of clarity and fervor.
Deep within the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array.
Di Jun and Eastern Emperor Taiyi stood side by side, their faces ashen.
"Big brother..."
Eastern Emperor Taiyi's voice was hoarse:
"If that punch... were to land on me..."
The Chaos Bell in his palm hummed softly, and the speed at which the Sun Moon Stars Illusions rotated on the bell's surface seemed to slow down slightly.
Xuandu's punch just now seemed simple.
However, the Martial Dao True Meaning contained within it has already touched upon the fundamental nature of the Hunyuan Great Dao!
That was pure power!
Prove Dao With Strength; the power that is uniquely mine!
Eastern Emperor Taiyi thought to himself, even with the Chaos Bell protecting him, even with the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array's support...
Even taking that punch head-on would result in serious injury!
Even... death!
" Yuanshi... cannot be stopped."
Di Jun spoke slowly, the Solar True Fire flickering in his eyes.
He saw it more clearly.
Xuandu's punch did not completely shatter the Heavenly Dao Barrier.
However, the Martial Dao True Meaning contained within the fist had already penetrated the barrier and shaken the foundation of the Sage from the Yuanshi!
The originally flawless and perfect Jade Purity Immortal Light surrounding Yuanshi was now slightly disordered.
Although the degree of disorder was extremely slight.
But for Sage... this is already a flaw!
"Gentlemen..."
In the center of the battlefield, Yuanshi slowly spoke.
His voice remained indifferent, but beneath that indifference lay a barely perceptible hint of... urgency.
He stared intently at Xuandu, his eyes swirling with Jade Purity Immortal Light, trying to deduce a way to break the deadlock.
The deducible result...
It terrified him!
The martial arts of Xuandu have become a unique system, with the Hunyuan Dao Rhyme and the Chaos Bead Origin blending together, further enhanced by the Vast Destiny of the Human Race and the Interception Sect.
Its foundation is so solid, its combat power so formidable...
It has far surpassed the ordinary Zenith Heaven Second Heaven!
He alone, in a short time... simply cannot take it down!
"We can't delay any longer..."
The Yuanshi murmured to himself.
He slowly raised his eyes and looked up at the dark, high place.
Beyond the Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array, deep within the void.
Four faint, almost imperceptible Sage Aura were quietly lurking within.
Laozi, Nuwa, Jieyin, Zhunti!
The Four Sages have arrived!
He only needs to give the order to strike swiftly and decisively, setting up the Five Saints Killing Game to completely wipe out Xuandu!
Can...
Yuanshi's gaze narrowed slightly.
Only by joining forces, concealing the Heavenly Secret, and isolating the inside from the outside, could the Five Saints United deceive the perception of the Tongtian.
But this kind of cover-up can't last long.
Although Tongtian was on Golden Ao Island at the moment, the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation was fully activated, intimidating all directions.
However, his protectiveness towards Xuandu was known throughout the Great Wilderness.
If the commotion here is too great, if the deadly situation lasts too long...
The Tongtian will surely sense this and come across the sea!
When the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation descends, the Five Saints Killing Game... will be thwarted!
"We must finish this quickly!"
A cold glint flashed in Yuanshi's eyes, and he no longer hesitated.
He suddenly looked up, gazing into the depths of the void, and said:
"Gentlemen... why aren't you making a move?!"
