" Qingchen..."
Five-colored water light spread beneath their feet, and a strange force froze the Shadow in place. Faintly, streaks of blue light flickered within, making the Shadow feel a chill.
True Lord Qingchen looked at the Shadow with an indifferent expression. His peach blossom eyes gleamed with Glazed Glass light as he carefully examined the Shadow from head to toe, and said:
"Is this the method you cultivated using that Devil Cultivation Method art?"
The Shadow did not answer; instead, its body suddenly melted like ripples on water, trembled in mid-air, and gradually transformed into a point of black light, then compressed infinitely toward the center, attempting to leave this place.
"You're only thinking of leaving now? Don't you think it's a bit too late?"
"Certainly!"
Qingchen held the golden-red jade ruyi in his hand and pointed it at the Shadow from afar.
The [ Scarlet Yang Pure Truth Mountain-Suppressing Ruyi ] was shimmering with golden and red light. At this single point in the distance, the two lights continued to flow, breaking through the air and landing on the Shadow that was about to break free.
The crimson light descended, transforming into a scarlet divine rope that pulled the Shadow back from its original point.
The golden light descended, transforming into the image of a divine mountain, hovering three feet above its head. Wisps of earthy yellow light descended, and the immense power of the earth stretched down, fixing all the Shadow's escape routes.
The Shadow then decisively gave up struggling.
Because he knew it clearly.
Given True Lord Qingchen's current realm and strength, if his true form were here, things would be different; it's hard to say who would live and who would die.
But it's just Shadow, and the true Divine Ability it carries is less than three-tenths of what it used to be... It might be able to pull off some tricks, but if it really comes down to a fight, it has no chance of winning.
Five-colored light spread across the water, True Lord Qingchen walked up to the Shadow, the golden-red Ruyi in his right hand shining even brighter.
He glanced at the Shadow calmly, then flicked his finger.
The five-colored water light gradually rose up and landed behind his head, gradually revealing a constantly spinning five-colored water wheel. A faint radiance appeared within the wheel, displaying five different colored water lights.
In the cultivation of the [ True Illumination Cavern Abyss Five Qi Art ], True Lord Qingchen is undoubtedly the one who has reached the deepest and furthest level in this technique!
As the waterwheel continued to turn, a mysterious and profound fluctuation gradually amplified Shadow Shadow, causing it to disintegrate and merge into the rest, transforming into a path of light extending into the void.
The Shadow's expression changed drastically, and it glared at Qingchen, "Are you using me to find my true form?"
"You got it right!"
Chen Shuangbai chuckled softly and strolled over.
The two Nascent Soul True Lord of the Jade Spring Jade Spring Sect, the Jade Spring Dao Child and the Jade Spring Sect, stood side by side, their brilliance dazzling and adding to their celestial aura.
The five-colored water wheel behind True Lord Qingchen's head slowly rotated. With each rotation, the Shadow dimmed a little, as if something was being peeled away from it, making the path of light increasingly solid.
The Shadow seemed to have something to say, but it couldn't utter a single word.
If his true form were here, then there would be something to discuss.
It was nothing more than Shadow.
True Lord Qingchen wielded a High-Grade Spirit Treasure. Although its zodiac sign was not particularly compatible, he possessed a dragon soul power at the Spirit Transformation level within him, allowing him to freely utilize Divine Ability. Naturally, his methods were profound and mysterious.
The waterwheel spun ceaselessly, its five-colored light illuminating the path of light.
At a certain moment.
The path of light seemed to extend to a certain area, then suddenly paused for a moment, and then a grand aura seemed to be triggered in front of it.
A middle-aged man's voice rang in their ears, followed by a soft sigh, and he said:
"I underestimated both of you after all!"
Chen Shuangbai's tone turned icy as she said, "Uncle-Master Yan, how have you been?"
Yan Nanlai's voice continued.
"I hope my junior apprentice has been well."
"Oh right, that aura should belong to the sect leader, right?"
"Nanlai has urgent matters to attend to and is unable to receive guests for the time being. Please forgive him, Sect Master... We shall take our leave now, and meet again someday."
That's all.
A surge of blue and purple light appeared on the other side, and an invisible force instantly descended upon the path of light, causing it to tremble and disintegrate.
Just as Chen Shuangbai was about to make a move, True Lord Qingchen raised his hand to stop him, saying only, "Why don't you go and help the Sword Alliance instead?"
" True Lord?"
True Lord Qingchen glanced sideways, and the endlessly spinning five-colored water wheel behind him continuously poured water light onto the path of light. Not only did it stabilize the path of light in an instant, but it even began to repel the influence of Yan Nanlai's Divine Ability powers.
The Daoist in blue stepped onto the path of light, and his figure suddenly became blurred, with only one voice reaching Chen Shuangbai's ears.
"The sect has produced a traitor, and as the sect leader, I bear an inescapable responsibility."
Only after True Lord Qingchen had gone far away did Chen Shuangbai reluctantly withdraw his gaze.
He knew that True Lord Qingchen was sharing his burden.
Yan Nanlai a man who has been plotting for a century. He is cunning, scheming, and ruthless, and is not someone to be trifled with.
Although True Lord didn't say it aloud, he was still worried that Chen Shuangbai would fall into this person's trap for nothing... so he left alone.
but...
Chen Shuangbai pinched the crow bone carving in his hand, thought for a moment, then used his Divine Ability to throw it heavily in the direction where True Lord Qingchen had disappeared. He also used his Divine Ability to leave a message in it before turning around to look at another battlefield.
The dim, five-colored Dharma realm has now fallen apart.
Azure Cloud Sword Lord and two other Nascent Soul True Lord of the Sword Alliance, who were in their twilight years, stood in three directions. While Sword Immortal Zhu Ling was entangled with Nether Sparrow with the [ Great Mound Nine-Yi Sword ], they used the Sword Alliance's Divine Ability powers to set up a Blazing Heavenly Light Sword Formation.
Chen Shuangbai looked up.
The three Nascent Soul True Lord joined forces, creating three towering sword lights that reached the heavens and the earth.
Amidst the intertwining sword lights, countless fine sword Sword Qi darted and weaved through the void, emitting sharp and piercing sounds as they pierced the air, trapping Nether Sparrow and Sword Immortal Zhu Ling within the sword formation.
Although this person's cultivation level cannot compare to that of the Azure Cloud Sword Lord, he has a significant advantage—
Master a Sword Intent!
Zhu Ling held the [ Great Mound Nine-Yi Sword ], with nine illusory mountain and river images appearing and disappearing on the blade. Each strike seemed to possess the immense power to split mountains and cleave seas.
No matter what the Nether Sparrow Demon Lord used—his dim five-colored radiance or his surging black fire tide—it was all extinguished by this ultimate, boundless power with a single sword strike!
In just a short while, the once arrogant Blackfire Sparrow was chased by Sword Immortal Zhu Ling until it had nowhere to go, neither up to heaven nor down to earth.
The sword formation sealed off both the inside and outside, blocking the void.
The only way out is to break through the blockade.
Chen Shuangbai could see it even more clearly.
The [ Great Mound Nine-Yi Sword ] seemed to be extremely effective against this Nether Sparrow Demon Lord. Whenever the sword was drawn, the demon lord would try to avoid it, rarely daring to directly meet the sword's blade with his true body.
