An even more violent impact erupted. Almost instantly, the West Heaven Summit became an ocean of qi. Hong Yuan and the Brahma Sun Dharma King exchanged hundreds, perhaps thousands of blows within a tiny space.
Surging qi boiled like a tide. The protective wall raised by Master Yun, Wen Yuyi, and the others cracked, then abruptly burst apart. The Refiners turned deathly pale, like mortals swept into a flood beneath the scouring of that vast qi.
Pfft!
Chen Qingjian's qi fell into chaos, and blood streamed from his seven orifices. Still, he clutched the silk manuscript tightly, his eyes fixed on the heart of the battle.
Yan Tianlie, Yu Chaoshen, Immortal Zi Hengyue, and the other Xuanhuang Qi experts were also dumbstruck, their composure lost.
Lingyin felt the greatest shock. Clear light shimmered in her eyes as she tracked that figure through the ocean of qi, but even with her cultivation, she could not keep up.
She had befriended Hong Yuan merely to forge a favorable connection and give the Heavenly Sound Pavilion another trump card. Never had she imagined that Hong Yuan would grow so quickly.
So quickly that he exceeded anyone's imagination.
Though the two Demon Venerables, Blood Sea and Undying, were immobilized by the Brahma Sun Dharma King's qi, they could still see and hear. Now they laughed in delight.
"Your Buddhist Sect schemed and plotted for years. Our Limitless lineage deserved its defeat, but did you foresee this unexpected man?"
Master Water Moon ignored them. Her pupils contracted, and her expression changed drastically.
Amid thunderous tremors, the towering stone pillar of the West Heaven Summit finally gave way beneath the savage bombardment. Its body cracked sharply, enormous fissures spreading like a dense spiderweb before bursting apart like a thousand bolts of fierce lightning!
