The moon shone brilliantly, shedding supreme yin qi. The phantom of an immense palace emerged from within it and descended straight over Qian Yuan Island.
This was the Taiyin Hall's secret treasure, the Taiyin Soul Suppressing Heavenly Palace Diagram.
Two of the Cultivation World's finest dharma treasures struck almost simultaneously. The Taiyin Soul Suppressing Heavenly Palace Diagram sought to suppress and imprison Gu Yuanqing, while the Nether Dragon Town Nether Mirror delivered the killing blow.
Both treasures were wielded by supreme Chaos Heaven Immortal Level Great Cultivators of the Cultivation World. To kill Gu Yuanqing, they were even willing to damage their own foundations and cultivation.
With the two working together, even a Void Immortal could fall if he was careless.
Such were the reserves of these great sects, and the reason Gu Yuanqing had never intended to clash with them head-on before.
Although each sect's strongest cultivators were only at the chaos heaven immortal level and seemed to struggle even against chaos heaven immortal level demonic beasts, that was because their foundations had not been threatened. They had not yet reached the point of fighting for their lives.
But Gu Yuanqing's attainment of void immortality today threatened the very foundations of the Demonic Sects. Especially now that they had attacked, enmity had been forged, leaving almost no room for reconciliation.
