Drove Zixu Away

"Junior brother, it's getting dark, what are you doing out here all alone?"

Zixu looked at Qingxu with great confusion, finding Qingxu rather strange.

Qingxu suddenly disappeared for many days, and no one could find out where he went.

Then suddenly he came back.

After returning, I helped everyone refine several Law Treasure, and then I had to go out again.

"We've collected a lot of materials now, and we need to refine the Law Treasure as soon as possible," Zixu advised Qingxu. "Your weapon-refining skills are the best. We're counting on you to use those high-grade materials to refine a few Treasure Artifact!"

Qingxu frowned, pointed to the mountain in front of him, and said, "I have to go up that mountain."

In fact, he wanted to come out two days ago.

However, it was too conspicuous for him to leave with those high-grade materials.

Therefore, Qingxu had to disguise himself and spend two days refining those high-grade materials into ordinary Law Treasure to carry with him.

However, when it was time to leave, Zixu actually followed them out.

This made him a little nervous, unsure of what to do next.

If Zixu knew his true situation, he wouldn't be able to defeat Zixu.

"Is there anything on that mountain?" Zixu looked at the mountain, his brows furrowing slightly. "Did you discover some heavenly materials and earthly treasures?"

"Yes, I noticed the unusual presence of heavenly materials and earthly treasures earlier, but I only remembered it now," Qingxu replied.

His lie doesn't hold up to scrutiny at all.

After all, this is the territory of One-Guard Monastery, and the disciples of One-Guard Monastery must have visited that mountain.

Of course, as a weapon refiner, Qingxu might discover something. Therefore, Zixu had no doubts.

"Let's hurry and check if the heavenly materials and earthly treasures are still there. Once we get them, we'll head back as soon as possible." Zixu didn't care.

Anyway, the distance isn't far, and she's strong enough, so what's there to be afraid of?

Suddenly, Zixu felt a sense of fear rise from the bottom of his heart. With a thought, a Law Treasure was activated.

"When--"

With a loud bang, a bright yellow bullet struck a mirror, sparks flying everywhere.

"Someone's there! Junior brother, be careful!"

Zixu shouted, and a shimmering robe appeared around her, enveloping her body.

"Bang--"

Another muffled thud, the shield swayed, and Zixu finally saw the bright yellow bullet clearly.

Her expression turned serious, and she shouted at Qingxu, "Junior brother, don't go to that mountain! Go back to Thousand Mechanism Lake! I'll go see who dares to cause trouble within my One-Guard Monastery Temple's territory!"

With her Nascent Soul Peak power, combined with defensive Law Treasure, and several other Law Treasure in hand, she chased after the incoming projectiles.

Seeing that two consecutive bullets had no effect, Zhang Yang's expression became serious.

He finally witnessed the strength of these top disciples from major sects, which was almost on par with the strength of those in the outside world.

With so many Law Treasure and the power of a peak Nascent Soul, he would be a formidable opponent even outside, let alone on the Prodigy Battlefield.

Zhang Yang remained calm and fired bullets one after another towards Zixu.

However, Nascent Soul Peak combined with Treasure Artifact- level defensive Law Treasure is something that ordinary mortal iron simply cannot break through.

At a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, he had only fired five bullets when Zixu was already within a hundred meters.

Zhang Yang snorted coldly, put down the Barrett, and picked up the Compound Bow.

He drew his bow, nocked an arrow, and poured his spiritual energy into it wildly. The arrowhead crackled with lightning as he shot towards Zixu.

However, this arrow was still ineffective against Zixu's defenses.

"This kind of Law Treasure can't do anything to me!" Zixu shouted. "Which sect are you from? Seeing that you are quite strong, you can stay and One-Guard Monastery me at Shouyi Temple. I'll let you leave after we leave the Prodigy Battlefield!"

Zhang Yang had only fired three arrows when Zixu was already within a 20-meter radius.

This was only because Zixu was cautiously on guard against arrows and those inexplicable projectiles; otherwise, they would have been close long ago.

As Zixu drew ever closer, Zhang Yang put away his bow and arrows.

Then, he silently poured in his spiritual power and mobilized the Laws of Heaven and Earth.

When no arrows or projectiles were being fired, Zixu actually slowed down his pace.

Judging from the two methods mentioned above, this opponent lurking in the shadows is by no means simple.

If she hadn't obtained the Law Treasure left behind by a senior from the previous Prodigy Battlefield, she might have died from the first blow.

So, while gathering her forces and preparing for battle, she slowly approached, saying, "I am Zixu of Zixu One-Guard Monastery, one of the leaders of One-Guard Monastery in this Prodigy Battlefield. I guarantee with my reputation that all the conditions I promised you will stand. We of One-Guard Monastery do not like fighting; you can completely trust us."

Zhang Yang looked at Zixu with some surprise. Was this female Daoist priest out of her mind?

At a time like this, are you still so naive?

It's better to be naive; he can use more spiritual power to manipulate more of the Laws of Heaven and Earth.

Finally, Zixu stepped into the bushes where Zhang Yang was, only seven or eight meters away.

Zhang Yang sneered, "Is Zixu of One-Guard Monastery so great? Are we Cloud Firmament Palace inferior to your One-Guard Monastery? Foolish woman, how dare you get so close to me, prepare to die!"

He unleashed all the power of the Laws of Heaven and Earth that he had been mobilizing for so long.

"Boom!"

A deafening roar erupted, and the world instantly changed color.

Bolts of lightning, each as thick as a bowl, rained down from the sky, indiscriminately covering all space within a radius of thirty meters.

Zixu was shocked and couldn't believe what he was seeing.

This scene of transforming into a sea of the Thunder Sea... could it be that it has reached the Primordial Spirit Realm?

Everyone here has only recently entered the Prodigy Battlefield, and it's impossible for anyone to be at the Nascent Soul Realm. This means the opposing side possesses an extremely powerful Primordial Spirit Realm Law Treasure! It also implies that the person hiding here is very likely one of the most important figures in the Cloud Firmament Palace. How could there be only one of the Cloud Firmament Palace's core geniuses lying in ambush here?

Zixu grew increasingly frightened, and in a panic, he turned and ran!

She activated her defensive Law Treasure with all her might and retreated rapidly. Bolts of lightning as thick as bowls continuously struck the defensive shield, and the light from the mirror in her hand, along with the magic robe she wore, gradually dimmed.

Finally, she escaped the minefield.

Just as she breathed a sigh of relief, a burning rocket struck her defensive shield, sending sparks flying.

Immediately afterwards, arrow after arrow was fired.

Just as Zixu breathed a sigh of relief, she noticed that the light emanating from her defensive robe and the mirror in her hand was growing weaker and weaker, which startled her greatly.

If the Law Treasure is destroyed, wouldn't she be doomed?

She had already suspected that Cloud Firmament Palace was lying in ambush here, and now that this situation had arisen, Zixu dared not linger any longer and flew away towards Thousand Mechanism Lake.

Zhang Yang lowered his bow and arrow, and by the time he fired the second bullet, Zixu had already disappeared from sight.

Watching Zixu fly away, Zhang Yang then slung his Barrett over his shoulder, picked up his Compound Bow, and went to find Qingxu.

Qingxu knew Zhang Yang had made his move the moment he saw the bright yellow bullet.

He was just wondering how to escape when Zhang Yang appeared and lured Zixu away, so he immediately hid himself.

While concealing himself, he was also somewhat worried. Zixu was so powerful; could Zhang Yang handle him?

But what happened next truly terrified him.

The lightning that filled the sky fell like rain... Could this be a technique that a Golden Core Realm could unleash?

He was especially dumbfounded when he saw that Zixu, despite having Law Treasure, had been driven away by Zhang Yang.

That's one of the top geniuses of One-Guard Monastery!

Seeing Zhang Yang approach, Qingxu revealed himself, looking at Zhang Yang with envy. "How exactly do you cultivate? Can you teach me?"
