In many people's eyes, True Person Tan had been standing in the square all along, in his original position.
Only when he walked out of that tower did they realize he had long since left, and had already come within a hundred-odd yards of Lian Sanyue.
True Person Tan held a small, ancient-looking bell in his right hand.
It was not the Flowing Light Bell Luo Huainan and Bai Zao had used, but the Zhongzhou Sect's sect-guarding Law Treasure-the Jingyun Bell.
Lian Sanyue shouted, "Fall."
A ray of morning light fell from the sky toward the top of True Person Tan's head.
With a soft hum, the Jingyun Bell blocked this ray of morning light imbued with the might of heaven and earth, while its low resonance effortlessly destroyed several ancient trees in the sky.
True Person Tan vanished without a trace again, only to walk out of a side room in the western sky the next moment.
This was the power of the Jingyun Bell; this was Heaven and Earth Misstep.
The Jingyun Bell was a very special Law Treasure, said to have been a naturally born divine object around the Qilin's neck in ancient times. As heavy as a mountain, it could not be wielded remotely like a flying sword or other Law Treasures; its bearer had to use it in person. No matter how profound a cultivator's cultivation realm, even if they were a Banished Immortal, once the Jingyun Bell rang beside their ear, their soul would scatter and they would suffer pain worse than death. Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would certainly have no strength left to resist.
Of course, ordinary cultivators could not even pick up the Jingyun Bell, let alone use it.
Only someone as powerful as True Person Tan
