The Four Sages' Miserable Plight
In the void, billions of miles away from the Interception Sect.
Since Duobao left.
That space then became calm.
It was already because of the great war.
And thus, it becomes nothingness.
However, this world also possesses the ability to heal itself.
As time goes on.
They did begin repairs.
But.
Even if the repair is successful.
This place can only be described as barren.
Because of all the matter, laws, and spiritual energy here.
They've all been destroyed...
Buzz!
Within the void.
Suddenly, a subtle tremor was felt.
This caused space to become distorted.
At the same time.
A faint golden light emanated from it.
It drifted out from that distorted space.
A slightly gentle force.
And so it came about naturally.
It fell into the distance.
The golden light wasn't particularly powerful.
But it contains extremely strong healing power.
Let's take a closer look.
It turned out to be Jieyin.
And the golden light emanating from him as he sat cross-legged.
It is no ordinary thing either.
It is indeed Supreme-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure: the Twelve-Grade Golden Lotus of Merit!
Now.
The Jieyin was seated cross-legged within.
It appears that he is meditating and resting.
Look at his pale face and frail body.
Obviously.
In the battle just now.
The Jieyin not only damages the physical body.
Even his primordial spirit was severely injured!
Its physical body is protected by Supreme-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure.
I narrowly escaped disaster.
And.
Fortunately, the Dao Ancestor utilized the Power of the Heavenly Dao.
They raised their strength to the Seventh Heaven of the Sage Hunyuan Realm.
Otherwise.
This time, he will probably die on the spot.
Because.
Before that power.
He was no match for him at all.
"Call..."
"Finally, I can catch my breath."
"Duobao's magical artifact is truly unbelievable!"
That's what I was thinking.
The Jieyin's gaze also sharpened.
A flash of hatred crossed his eyes.
A chilling killing intent emanated from his body!
Hatred towards Duobao and the Interception Sect.
Then there was another layer.
"Why..."
What should we do now?
Even though Jieyin's heart was filled with hatred.
However, I'm not so confident in my own abilities.
Dealing with Duobao is easy.
Dealing with the Interception Sect is also easy.
But how to deal with that master?
There's really no way to Jieyin.
"Forget it, let's wait for the Dao Ancestor."
"Now that the West is destroyed, there's no use in coming back. Let's summon Zhunti and go see the Dao Ancestor see if he has any solutions."
"Hmm... Zhunti, where is Zhunti?!"
After Jieyin his senses, he realized...
Zhunti has not returned yet.
Even.
Even what Zhunti was in, it seems Jieyin didn't know.
He quickly released his divine sense.
I want to find out where Zhunti is.
This investigation is of great importance.
After investigating Zhunti's situation...
The Jieyin's expression changed drastically.
"Not good!"
"Zhunti is severely damaged, both physically and mentally, and is on the verge of death!"
Jieyin's gaze sharpened.
His figure flashed instantly.
It then plunged down from the clouds.
It crashed into the Primordial World land.
They immediately discovered Zhunti.
At this moment, Zhunti was lying helplessly on the ground.
There were countless pebbles all around.
Zhunti smashed a huge hole in the ground.
It must be at least hundreds of millions of miles deep.
Estimate.
If Duobao had used a little more force with that magic weapon...
Then Zhunti smash through that ground.
"Zhunti!"
"Zhunti!"
Wake up!
The Jieyin called out twice.
There was no response.
Jieyin was immediately flustered.
He quickly channeled some true spiritual power into Zhunti.
This true spirit contains all the power of a Peak Quasi-Saint.
Although for Zhunti now...
It's useless.
But it should be able to awaken Zhunti.
"Um..."
As expected.
It wasn't long.
A voice then rang out.
Zhunti groggily opened his eyes.
His eyes revealed weakness as he looked around blankly.
When he saw the Jieyin looking at him with an anxious expression.
Zhunti shifted.
Suddenly, I recalled everything that had just happened.
His expression suddenly changed drastically.
His eyes seemed to spit fire.
He shouted in a hoarse voice.
"Senior brother, Duobao... Duobao actually shattered my physical body!"
"Even his cultivation level has dropped significantly!"
"That Taishang isn't even helping us!"
"It's simply... simply..."
Zhunti looked heartbroken.
His heart seemed to be filled with anger.
He seemed to be angry, but couldn't express it.
Hearing Zhunti's dejected words.
The Jieyin waved his hand.
He quickly replied.
"Junior brother, things have come to this."
"Don't underestimate yourself anymore."
"With the help of that master, we might still be alive."
"That's already a stroke of luck!"
You should rest and recuperate.
"Let's talk about it after my injuries have healed a bit."
"The West has experienced such a major event; presumably, the Dao Ancestor will also intervene."
Hearing about the safety of the Jieyin.
Zhunti still looked somewhat nervous.
He looked bewildered.
"But what if even the Dao Ancestor hasn't figured out a way to deal with that expert? Even if all of us Sage combined were to face him, what then?"
What should we do?
Upon hearing this...
The Jieyin to IE has arrived.
Silence fell.
The Jieyin looked into the distance.
A look of helplessness immediately appeared on his face.
Zhunti said... is indeed a problem that cannot be ignored.
Their hopes were all pinned on the Dao Ancestor.
What if even the Dao Ancestor couldn't come up with a solution in the end?
So what should we do?
And what a miserable fate awaited them!
That's what I was thinking.
Jieyin dared not think any further.
Even though he already suspected that their fate wouldn't be good.
They also refused to admit it...
"Forget it, junior brother, there's no point in thinking about it anymore."
"Now the West is gone too, despite all our efforts over so many years and countless plans."
"I just hope to make it big in the West."
Who would have thought it would turn out so tragically?
"Let alone us, even the Dao Ancestor's plans have all fallen through, haven't they?"
"Right now, we're just taking it one step at a time, figuring out how long we can live."
"Even if I'm anxious now, it's just self-destructive and futile!"
Heeding the Jieyin's advice.
Zhunti was standing to the side, suddenly narrowed his eyes.
A hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
The Jieyin was telling the truth.
This is the current situation.
They had no choice but to endure it.
If we were to truly confront that peerless master...
The consequences would be truly unimaginable.
"Senior brother, please wait a moment while I heal my injuries."
Upon hearing what Zhunti said...
The Jieyin nodded.
With a wave of his hand.
An astonishing power of devouring.
It was transmitted from the palm of the Jieyin hand.
They pulled Zhunti over directly.
Then.
Let him sit cross-legged on the Twelve-Grade Golden Lotus of Merit, and rest and recuperate.
After all, the healing power of the Merit Golden Lotus is also extremely amazing.
But.
Zhunti's injuries were extremely severe.
Even with the protection of the Golden Lotus.
To achieve a full recovery.
It would take at least hundreds of thousands of years.
"Junior brother, you recover first, let's go find the Dao Ancestor!"
"Hoping that the Golden Lotus will repair your primordial spirit? Who knows how long that will take!"
"We can't wait any longer!"
Upon hearing this...
Zhunti and said nothing more.
Jieyin casually waved his hand.
The Merit Golden Lotus signifies that the recipient has received the instruction to Jieyin.
A flash of golden light, and it slowly disappeared from the spot.
On the other side.
It is a place only a few million miles away from the Kunlun Mountain.
There were two extremely weak figures.
It was the Taishang and the Yuanshi.
Yuanshi was somewhat better off.
At most, his face was a little pale.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes.
Physically, only an arm was lost.
On the other hand, consider the Taishang.
His physical body had completely crumbled.
Only a faint primordial spirit remained.
It floated gently beside Yuanshi.
He appeared to be in extremely poor condition.
Even though Yuanshi was violently thrown away by the aftershock.
None of them are as obvious as the Taishang.
In other words...
The Taishang Being actively engaged in a direct confrontation with that supreme treasure.
So.
He was severely injured by that golden light.
I did not provoke the other party.
Therefore, the injury was not Taishang serious.
Yuanshi Shi was inherently intelligent.
That came to mind in an instant.
In his eyes.
A look of helplessness flashed across his face.
He used his own Hunyuan Qi to nourish the Taishang's primordial spirit.
He expressed his concern.
"Big brother, are you alright?"
The Taishang heard the words of the Yuanshi.
The weakened primordial spirit trembled slightly.
His voice sounded listless as he responded.
"It's alright. I'll recuperate for a while, and then we'll go find the Dao Ancestor!"
"In this situation, we are no match for them with our current strength!"
"If it weren't for the Sage Ninth Heaven of Hunyuan Realm,..."
"I am utterly powerless against this!"
"It might even perish!"
The Taishang said this.
I still feel a lingering fear.
He was really stubborn back then.
Audacious in the extreme.
How ridiculous that they don't even realize it.
Before that magical treasure.
Taishang felt like he was nothing more than an ant.
It was something that ordinary living beings simply could not resist.
I'm already extremely lucky to be alive.
If it were the Yuanshi...
That moment.
It's estimated that he will die instantly.
He heard that the Taishang wanted to nourish his body.
Yuanshi nodded slightly and said.
"Don't worry, brother, I'll protect you."
Upon hearing this...
The Taishang Being then fell silent.
As time goes on...
Taishang the ethereal primordial spirit of the Supreme Being began to tremble.
Gradually solidifying.
I don't know how much time has passed.
The Taishang came to his senses.
His physical condition was still very weak.
But it's much better than before...
"Let's go, second brother."
The Taishang Being had no intention of continuing his cultivation.
Instead, they called it Yuanshi).
They seemed to be in a hurry to leave.
Yuanshi paused slightly, then asked suspiciously, "Brother, I don't think you've recovered yet."
"Why don't you wait a little longer?"
"Recovering your cultivation is the most important thing!"
Hearing what Yuanshi said.
The Taishang sighed helplessly in response.
"Let's not heal for now; it's not safe to stay here any longer."
"Besides, my old injuries won't heal in a short time."
"I need to find the Dao Ancestor and see Dao Ancestor can help me..."
"If this continues, my Sage and Ninth Heaven realms might also decline..."
"So, we can't afford to delay any longer."
After hearing what the Taishang said...
Yuanshi's expression immediately tightened.
In his eyes.
A look of urgency flashed across his face.
"Then we should not delay; let us go find the Dao Ancestor as soon as possible."
"Only the Dao Ancestor can solve this problem."
The Taishang Lord nodded.
His gaze was fixed on the distance not far away.
That is the direction of the Interception Sect.
Ever since the Dao Ancestor and Pingxin went to war.
It seems that they have lost contact with him.
The Taishang could not sense the location of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun at all.
Maybe.
Dao Ancestor Hongjun went to war with Pingxin, he went beyond the Primordial World.
However, it's also possible that it was a battle fought in a space created independently.
Thinking about this...
The Taishang couldn't help but address the Yuanshi.
"How about this, let's go to the vicinity of the Interception Sect first and see if Dao Ancestor Hongjun is there."
Upon hearing this...
Yuanshi also knew that Dao Ancestor was fighting Pingxin.
The force that caused most of the surface of the Primordial Continent to shatter at that time.
It did indeed originate from the direction of the Interception Sect.
Thinking about this...
Yuanshi couldn't help but feel a solemn expression, and said...
"Brother, the Dao Ancestor is currently engaged in a great battle; I'll be there soon."
"What if we get caught in the aftermath of the great war?"
"Brother, you're still seriously injured."
"If something goes wrong, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Upon hearing this...
The Taishang paused, then sighed.
There's nothing we can do about that.
"However, don't worry, Pingxin has spent too long in the Underworld, so naturally he's not used to the current Primordial World Heavenly Dao."
"Even if Pingxin's strength is comparable to that of the Dao Ancestor Hongjun."
"And they might not even be able to match the strength of the Dao Ancestor."
"It's been a long time now, and there's been no movement."
"This indicates that Dao Ancestor Hongjun has likely gained the upper hand."
Upon hearing this...
Upon careful consideration, Yuanshi realized that it was indeed true.
My slight anxiety eased a little.
Then he began to speak.
"Brother, you should focus on healing your injuries first."
"Your second brother will take you there."
Yuanshi only suffered minor injuries.
My arm has fully recovered.
His strength was not severely affected.
It was just a casual wave of the hand.
A gentle, Hunyuan Qi enveloped the two of them.
The next moment.
Their figures vanished from the spot.
They headed straight for the Interception Sect grounds!
