Kill You First, Then Those Two!
If Chen Baotian had previously thought it was arrogant, after these words, everyone present felt the same way.
Even Lu Zeyu couldn't help but glance at Gu Yuanqing again. He had just revealed Liu Ruiyuan's background to let Gu Yuanqing know that this person was not simple.
When yang reaches its extreme, yin arises; this means one has grasped a bit of the principle of Yin-Yang, and is already close to the Peak of Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change.
Unexpectedly, Gu Yuanqing could actually say such a thing. Lu Zeyu clearly did not believe that Gu Yuanqing was just showing off his verbal skills. No one who could cultivate to the level of Celestial Person was a fool. The only possibility was that he believed he had the ability.
But... didn't he just break through to the Celestial Person?
Lu Zeyu had previously paid attention to Gu Yuanqing and was confident that he could not make a wrong judgment about the difference between the Void Heaven and the Celestial Person.
Even if Liu Ruiyuan only came with Split Soul, he still possesses strength approaching the Heavenly Change Three Tribulations Great Completion.
How can a Cultivator broke through to the Celestial Person less than ten years ago be confident of victory?
Lu Zeyu had also been to the Primordial Realm, but he had never heard of any Cultivator from the Primordial Realm who could reach such a level.
Liu Ruiyuan stared coldly at Gu Yuanqing, a murderous intent flashing in his eyes. "You can't reason with a fool like me. No matter your background, this is your own fault."
"Senior Brother Liu, let me have a go at him first!"
The middle-aged man who had remained silent stepped forward. His name was Tan Ziping. He was dressed in black clothes with purple trim and possessed the strength of the Two Tribulations of Heavenly Change. He was Protector of the Sanyang Sect Dark Hall.
Liu Ruiyuan nodded slightly.
Chen Baotian whispered, "Senior Brother Tan, be careful. This person is only said to have the cultivation of the First Tribulation of Heavenly Change, but the method he cultivates is extremely strange and difficult to guard against."
Tan Ziping responded lightly, stretched out his hand, and a Long Halberd appeared. He gripped it, and Flame immediately enveloped the Long Halberd. Then he took a step forward and, in the blink of an eye, broke through the thirty-foot distance to arrive above Gu Yuanqing's head.
The Long Halberd fell, causing ripples in the Void.
Boom!
As the flames streaked across the sky, Gu Yuanqing's figure vanished in fragments, reappearing a hundred feet away.
With a flick of his finger, the Formless Calamity Finger was activated.
Tan Ziping Long Halberd swung his halberd, causing the Void to tremble, breaking through the power of the Formless Calamity Finger, which had just condensed but had not yet erupted.
"Huh!" Gu Yuanqing was slightly surprised. This was the first time his Formless Calamity Finger had been broken. Even the Dragon Demon Ancestor was at the Yin-Yang Realm level, had not been able to do it.
He flicked his fingers again, and Tan Ziping swung his Long Halberd repeatedly, each strike landing before the power of the Formless Calamity Finger could be unleashed.
Liu Ruiyuan smiled slightly, thinking to himself, "Junior Brother Tan's Mind Mirror Technique is becoming increasingly superb. It's like he has the physique of a born war god; his keen grasp of combat is no less than mine."
After a series of tests, Gu Yuanqing finally understood that the man in black had an extremely keen sense of his surroundings, and his mind was like a mirror reflecting everything, able to immediately detect any slight change.
He had already used the Formless Calamity Finger many times in the Ancient Realm, and had even used this move to kill Chen Baotian, so the Sanyang Sect must have been prepared long ago.
Of course, the most important reason is insufficient control over the Formless Calamity Finger, as the power outburst is traceable.
This is what allowed someone to break the move. In the battle against the Dragon Demon Ancestor, he relied on the Object Control Power and the Heavenly Angling Technique. Using this technique only requires a thought, which is completely different from actually controlling the move.
Tan Ziping broke through the Formless Calamity Finger once again, sneered, and took a step forward, closing in on Gu Yuanqing again. At the same time, he sneered, "Similar moves, how can they hurt me? Prepare to die!"
In the firelight, a sharp aura tore through space, leaving a thin black line as it slashed towards Gu Yuanqing.
Below, on the surface of the Boundless River, a deep trench appeared, and the Vital Energy reacted violently, exploding with a deafening roar!
Various lights burst forth, and the entire river surface rippled.
Gu Yuanqing chuckled lightly, his figure vanishing from the spot once more. "You only managed to break one of my moves, but you've gotten too confident. Fine, I'll kill you first, then the other two."
With Palm Seal, he combined the Void Hand Seal of the Lingxu Sect and the Myriad Manifestations Sect Myriad Manifestations Senluo Palm of the Myriad Manifestations Sect, imbued with the Suppression Intent of North Spring Mountain, and then used Spatial Method to control it, instantly enveloping Tan Ziping Palm Seal in the center.
All that could be seen was the shimmering light of Runes, with various forces of the Great Dao arranged according to Yin-Yang within and the Eight Trigrams without, rotating and swirling. In the center of the Palm Seal, space was inverted, and all the Daos evolved, as if Earth, Fire, Wind, and Water were born out of thin air.
Above the palm of my hand, a majestic, ethereal Immortal Mountain shrouded in Cloudmist descended.
Tan Ziping felt an immense force coming from all directions, unable to distinguish whether it was the light of blades or the shadow of swords, the burning of fire or the roar of giant waves.
It felt as if I were buried deep underground, unable to move; or as if Nine-Heaven Astral Wind was blowing into my Divine Soul through my seven orifices.
At the same time, he felt that the Long Halberd in his hand was as heavy as ten thousand pounds, making it difficult to swing. His True Essence began to stagnate, and the Heavenly Human World was about to be suppressed back to the Divine Court.
My Dao Heart kept warning me, as if I were about to face utter destruction in the blink of an eye.
With a roar, he activated his Secret Method, activating his Heavenly Human Divine Soul. All the Great Dao of the Heavenly Human World began to burn, enveloping his entire body in raging Flame. His True Essence also transformed into flames. Then, he poured all his power into his Long Halberd and slashed at the palm in the sky.
Outside, Liu Ruiyuan's expression changed drastically, and he made a sudden move, throwing the large Great Seal towards Gu Yuanqing.
In an instant, the seal transformed into a towering Great Mountain, pressing down on Gu Yuan, clearly an attempt to relieve the siege of Wei by attacking Zhao.
Gu Yuanqing chuckled and struck out with another palm.
Boom!
The Floating Dust Seal was bounced upwards for more than ten feet, and when it fell again, Gu Yuanqing was no longer in the same place.
Having attained the status of Celestial Person, Gu Yuanqing's mastery of the Way of Space is now far beyond what it used to be. With the Heavenly Fishing Method as his teacher, he can easily use Spatial Art even when he is away from home.
As Liu Ruiyuan attacked Gu Yuanqing with the Great Seal, he shouted urgently, "Junior Brother Tan, leave the Ancient Realm!"
Gu Yuanqing laughed loudly, "Too late!"
He clenched his fist tightly in the Void, unleashing the full power of his Palm Seal, and North Spring Mountain Shadow fell completely.
The difference in strength was too great, and Gu Yuanqing did not hold back at all, displaying strength comparable to the Peak of Three Tribulations of Heavenly Change, completely overwhelming the opponent with brute force.
Tan Ziping first felt his Heavenly Human Realm completely crushed, then his True Essence was restrained, his Physical Body was completely exposed to the attack, and he could no longer hold onto his Long Halberd, which fell to the ground.
The various paths evolved, carrying the Annihilation Power, tearing his Physical Body apart.
Even if his inner mirror could reflect all things, it would be completely useless at this level of foundation.
Even Liu Ruiyuan's voice couldn't reach his ears.
"This... is not First Tribulation of Heavenly Change at all, it is no different from when I faced the Sect Master!" In an instant, he knew that he could no longer stay in this world.
With a roar, he unleashed his full Divine Soul power once more, activating the Heavenly Human World, and then used Secret Method to connect with his Physical Body, intending to return.
However, even with his swift reaction, he only gained a fleeting moment before his Physical Body shattered into a bloody mist, and most of his Divine Soul remained in this world, where it was completely consumed.
Bang!
The Long Halberd fell into the Boundless River, creating a hundred-foot splash before sinking to the bottom. It was then worn down by various Vital Energy, and it was feared that it would lose its Spirituality and become scrap metal in just a few days.
Liu Ruiyuan finally regarded Gu Yuanqing as an existence on the same level as himself, and unleashed Two Dharma Treasures, while simultaneously bombarding Gu Yuanqing with various Secret Method of the Sanyang Sect.
Gu Yuanqing laughed loudly, "Well done, this is getting interesting!"
In the distance, Chen Baotian's face was extremely grim. "Senior Brother Tan... he actually killed him too!"
Lu Zeyu was incredibly surprised. Even though he had overestimated Gu Yuanqing's strength as much as possible, the scene before him still seemed unbelievable.
At this moment, Liu Ruiyuan and Gu Yuanqing seemed to be evenly matched, but one was manipulating Ancient Realm Law Treasure, while the other was relying solely on his own Dao techniques.
This shows that the new Guest Elder's strength is even greater than Liu Ruiyuan's!
