After hearing Zhang Yu's words, the various Daoists looked again at the Primordial Unity Celestial Palace encircled by sword scars. To have driven those five to such a state, their emotions surged for a moment.
The methods wielded by the five Yuan Sages had emerged one after another without end. Every move possessed the power to suppress them all, yet under the leadership of Zhang Yu and the Golden Court, they had been broken one by one. This request for inquiry and response likely could not last much longer. If they did not withdraw, they would only be suppressed unilaterally by Zhang Yu.
Thus, they would inevitably take the road of direct confrontation, precisely what they had demanded before. And in such a head-on battle, there would be no retreat. Victory or defeat would ultimately be decided in this one battle.
All of them solemnly performed a salute and said, "We are willing to join you, Fellow Daoist, in breaking the Constant Dao!"
Zhang Yu nodded in response and continued urging the High One incarnation forward, pressing the Primordial Unity Celestial Palace ever harder.
They had reached the most critical moment. He had to ensure there would be no further reversals. Just as before, the Primordial Unity Celestial Palace had nearly gathered the combined force of all Dao again. The slightest misstep in response might return them to the previous deadlock, rendering all their earlier efforts futile.
First, he had to resolve the hidden trouble within. A firm foundation did not guarantee victory, but it could at least reduce the weaknesses that might be exploited.
He said to Primordial Simplicity and Daoist Mengcan, "How are you two Fellow Daoists now?"
Daoist Primordial Simplicity said, "Though that intent has descended, it still lingers without dispersing. Our existence remains a hidden danger."
