What kind of scene was it when thirty-six Primordial Unity Golden Immortals attacked at once?

In the instant their divine abilities erupted, the sea for hundreds of thousands of miles around was utterly drowned in all manner of innate immortal light. Countless bolts of lightning, divine flames, and Sword Qi rained down upon the Cloud Formation where the Three Cloud Sisters stood from every direction.

In terms of cultivation alone, the two sides were practically incomparable.

The highest cultivation among Yunxiao and her sisters was merely Golden Immortal Perfection.

Their opponents, however, were all Primordial Unity Golden Immortals.

In a normal spell battle, any one of them could have suppressed the three sisters.

But the problem was that the Three Cloud Sisters' equipment was far too unreasonable.

"Rise!"

Yunxiao formed hand seals with both hands.

The Primordial Unity Golden Dipper instantly rose above the formation, and a strand of Primordial Unity Divine Light descended, intertwining with the thirty-six currents of cloud qi.

Rumble!

The first wave of divine abilities slammed into the formation. The sea of clouds churned violently, yet it did not shatter at once as the Celestial Court cultivators had imagined.

At this moment, the might of a Supreme-grade Innate Spirit Treasure was finally truly revealed.

Naturally, Yunxiao could not fully wield the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper with her Golden Immortal cultivation. Yet merely drawing upon a small portion of its defensive power and its ability to disrupt magical power was already enough to greatly weaken a vast number of Taiyi divine abilities.

"Their attacks have been disrupted by the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper!"

Yunxiao immediately spotted the key.

"Second Sister, southeast!"

Qiongxiao had been waiting for this moment.

Her figure instantly shot out of the Cloud Formation.

A streak of azure sword light skimmed across the sea's surface. In the instant when the foremost Taiyi had just brought out his magic treasure, it suddenly erupted.

That Taiyi's reaction could not have been faster.

A crimson long blade immediately swept across before him.

But the Mystic Origin Immortal-Slaying Sword had been forged for Slaughter to begin with, and after Qiongxiao's continuous refinement over the years, she could already unleash part of its true might.

Clang!

The two spirit treasures collided.

Though the crimson long blade was also an Innate Spirit Treasure, it was merely low-grade.

A clear notch instantly appeared on its blade.

The Taiyi cultivator's face turned green with heartache.

After cultivating for so many years, he had only managed to obtain an Innate Spirit Treasure with great difficulty. He usually treasured it like his own son.

Yet after the very first collision—

It had been hacked open.

In the Great Wilderness, aside from gaps in cultivation, the cruelest thing was sometimes the gap in equipment.

"A mere Golden Immortal, relying on a supreme-grade spirit treasure, nothing more!"

The Taiyi roared furiously, his immense magical power forcefully erupting and directly blasting Qiongxiao back.

Qiongxiao did not meet him head-on.

As she borrowed the force to retreat, a streak of golden light suddenly brushed past her side.

"Second Sister, move aside!"

Bixiao's excited voice rang out.

Two golden flood dragons crossed in midair and snipped shut.

Crack!

The crimson long blade, already bearing a notch, was cut in two on the spot.

The Celestial Court Taiyi froze completely.

Bixiao was stunned as well.

"Was it that brittle?"

"..."

That Taiyi nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood.

What did she mean, that brittle?

This was an Innate Spirit Treasure!

It was your Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors that were too unreasonable!

"Bixiao, come back!"

Yunxiao's voice arrived in time.

Bixiao did not linger in battle. Spatial magical power circulated, and her entire body abruptly vanished from where she stood.

Several divine abilities that had already locked onto her instantly struck empty air.

When she appeared again, she had already returned to the Cloud Formation.

Though this exchange had been brief, it allowed the three sisters to rapidly find the rhythm that suited them best.

Yunxiao held the center.

The Primordial Unity Golden Dipper worked with the Cloud Formation to weaken and disrupt the enemy.

Qiongxiao was responsible for the purest Slaughter.

Bixiao relied on spatial divine abilities and the Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors to launch sneak attacks everywhere.

Could they not overpower them head-on?

Then they would not force a head-on clash.

If their realm was lacking, their equipment would make up for it.

One Golden Immortal wielding a Supreme-grade Innate Spirit Treasure was not enough.

They had three.

The Celestial Court cultivators quickly discovered that this battle was exceptionally stifling.

Their cultivation was clearly higher, yet once they spread out, they had to guard against the Mystic Origin Immortal-Slaying Sword and the Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors suddenly emerging from some corner.

If they concentrated their attacks on the Cloud Formation, the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper would cause subtle deviations in the circulation of their magical power, preventing the thirty-six attacks from truly converging in perfect unison.

Most infuriating of all, the Three Cloud Sisters grew more proficient the longer they fought.

At the beginning, they had occasionally been in a flurry.

But later on, Yunxiao even began actively altering the formation.

"Retract the northwest of the formation by three zhang."

"Second Sister, attack the third person on the left."

"Third Sister, sever his magical power link with the one behind him."

Orders came one after another.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao grew increasingly coordinated as well.

The Primordial Unity Golden Dipper suddenly scattered a ray of golden light.

The circulation of magical power within one Taiyi's body stalled slightly.

The Mystic Origin Immortal-Slaying Sword followed right behind.

His opponent hurriedly defended.

But in the next instant, the Golden Flood-Dragon Scissors emerged from space in the completely opposite direction.

Crack!

His protective immortal light was cut to pieces on the spot.

That Taiyi was sent flying back in a miserable state.

Beyond the sea.

The expressions of the three Great Luo figures who had yet to act had already turned somewhat grim.

They had originally believed that dispatching thirty-six Taiyi to capture three Golden Immortals would be as easy as turning over a hand.

Yet now, never mind capturing anyone.

Several people on the Celestial Court side had already been injured instead.

"These three juniors cannot have cultivated for very long."

One of the Great Luo figures stared at the Cloud Formation, his voice low.

"Yet their mastery over magic treasures, divine abilities, and cooperation with one another is improving at a rate visible to the naked eye."

Another person had also noticed the issue.

"Especially that white-robed female immortal. Her formation has been changing constantly."

"At first, she could only defend passively. Now she has begun using our attacks to improve the formation in reverse."

They were not wrong.

Yunxiao was indeed in an unprecedented state at this moment.

All her past insights into the Array Dao had come from Enlightenment Cliff and her own deductions.

Now, facing a true siege for the first time, those theories that had existed only within her Primordial Spirit were rapidly transforming into practical combat experience.

Where was easiest to breach?

Which nodes could not remain fixed?

How could she use the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper to disrupt her opponents?

One question after another was swiftly resolved.

Within Penglai.

Luxuan sat amidst the clouds, taking in the entire battlefield.

Insights into growth continuously fed back from his three disciples.

Practical combat experience.

Changes in the Array Dao.

The application of the Sword Dao.

Spatial movement.

Each was only a slight improvement for the Three Cloud Sisters, but after a hundredfold return, they were enough to produce obvious progress for Luxuan.

Yunxiao's changes in the Array Dao were especially astonishing.

"As expected."

The corners of Luxuan's lips rose slightly.

"Taking a beating really does teach faster than building a cart behind closed doors."

Of course, Yunxiao could not be allowed to hear that.

Otherwise, he would seem rather less than human as a master.

On the battlefield.

The three Great Luo figures finally lost their patience.

One of them took a step forward.

Great Luo Law descended like the vault of heaven pressing down.

The Cloud Formation, which had barely held on until now, immediately shook violently.

Yunxiao's face instantly paled several shades.

The gap in realms was simply too vast.

A supreme-grade spirit treasure could make up for part of it.

But it could not allow a Golden Immortal to truly disregard a Great Luo.

"Enough."

That Great Luo spoke coldly.

"For a few juniors to hold out until now is enough for you to be proud of yourselves."

"But today's matter should also come to an end."

A massive hand seal of magical power slowly condensed.

Yunxiao gritted her teeth and drove the Primordial Unity Golden Dipper.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao returned to the formation at the same time.

The three sisters clearly had no intention of retreating.

In the direction of Penglai.

Luxuan gently set down the teacup in his hand.

"It is indeed about time."

As his words fell.

He had already vanished from where he stood.

Just as that Great Luo prepared to bring down the hand seal, a figure in black robes silently appeared before him.

Luxuan raised his head and glanced at him.

"The sparring is over."

He then struck out with his palm.

Boom!

The Great Luo Dharma Form, along with its owner and divine ability, vanished from midair together.

Several breaths later.

Only then did an earth-shattering crash resound from the distant sea.

The remaining two Great Luo figures' expressions changed in unison.

Luxuan had already turned his head.

"You two."

"Will you go down yourselves, or shall I send you?"
