"Repel Heaven and Earth!"
The axe-light shocked the world. In that instant, all under heaven turned white, and Gu Lingxiao's figure was directly swallowed up.
"This is a world-opening divine ability, a true world-opening divine ability..."
The Five-Elements Divine Light around him shattered, and Gu Lingxiao's face turned ugly beyond measure. His Five-Elements Escape Technique allowed him to evade most killing divine abilities, including strange powers like the Slaughter Formula, but world-opening divine abilities were not among them.
To a certain extent, abilities of this kind actually restrained his escape technique. The instant that axe-light fell, he was directly forced back into his original form.
At this moment, with nowhere to evade, he could only barely protect himself with the power of five Dao artifacts.
"There's someone else. This person had been waiting outside all along. From the very beginning, this Primordial Unity Hall was a trap they set for me. The only thing worth celebrating now is that this person isn't all that strong."
Seeing everything clearly, Gu Lingxiao was both shocked and furious, yet also let out a slight sigh of relief. His opponent was troublesome, but fortunately not deadly.
He simply could not understand what background this opponent possessed, nor why they were targeting him so relentlessly. Could it truly be for the Immortal Dao inheritance in his hands? But that thing was not so easily taken. Otherwise, someone would have made a move against him long ago.
"Steady myself and find a chance to leave. The Primordial Unity Ancient Stele is already in hand; there's no meaning in dragging this out any longer."
"Besides, I've felt something was wrong these past days. My spiritual senses seem to be growing increasingly sluggish. By all reason, I shouldn't have failed to sense such a deadly trap."
Thoughts whirling,
