The Heavenly Eye's Divine Might! Guiling Takes Action
The Netherworld Underworld.
The Yuding True Person, the Huanglong True Person, and the True Person Taiyi, who had infiltrated the Netherworld Underworld, were all hiding here.
Watching Yang Jian's great battle with the Underworld Ghost Emperor.
Seeing that Yang Jian, who had only cultivated for ten thousand years, had fought to a draw with the Daluo Ghost Emperor, who had been cultivating in seclusion in the Underworld for hundreds of millions of years.
If Yang Jian hadn't been so impatient and had instead played steadily, he might have even won.
All three were filled with immense joy.
Yuding True Person was especially gratified.
Huanglong True Person and True Person Taiyi were even more relieved, for Yang Jian's talent had not disappointed them in coming to their rescue despite the great risks they had taken.
When they saw the Underworld Ghost Emperor using Underworld authority to imprison Yang Jian in place...
"The Underworld Ghost Emperor has already used the authority of the Underworld. Yang Jian is not yet able to break through the Underworld's binding power. Junior Brother Yuding, Senior Brother Huanglong, let's make our move!"
A glint flashed in True Person Taiyi's eyes, and he spoke in a deep voice.
Huanglong True Person and Yuding True Person also nodded.
Although they hadn't had detailed dealings with the Underworld, they could tell that the power of the Underworld's ghosts and gods had already exceeded Yang Jian's ability to handle.
They have even surpassed them.
Only...
Each of the three took out a sword and held it in his hand.
Although the three swords looked ordinary and unremarkable.
However, these three swords are all Innate Spirit Treasures.
Moreover, even the sword in Huanglong True Person's hand is a mid-grade Mid-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, not Low-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure.
(Although... Huanglong True Person only possessed this one precious sword Innate Spirit Treasure.)
The sword in True Person Taiyi's hand is also Mid-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure Innate Spirit Treasure, but its quality is close to that of a high-grade one.
The sword that Yuding True Person pulled out was his true trump card, the Immortal- Immortal-Slaying Sword, Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure bestowed by Celestial Venerable Yuanshi.
Only...
Before they could even make a move, a rift suddenly opened in the void before them, and a goddess radiating compassion emerged from it.
This scene immediately stunned Yuding True Person, True Person Taiyi, and Huanglong True Person, who were just about to make a move, and they dared not move.
Upon seeing the void rift and the goddess exuding an aura of compassion, their first thought was that they were doomed.
It's Lady Pingxin has arrived.
Even the Immortal -Immortal-Slaying Sword in Yuding True Person's hand was almost dropped in fright.
"Fellow Daoists, I am a deity Underworld of Heavenly Court, acting in accordance with the laws of Heaven and the Houtu Goddess Houtu! May I ask what brings you three with your swords, exuding such murderous intent?"
Houtu spoke softly with a gentle smile on her face.
The moment Houtu finished speaking.
The first reaction in the minds of all the immortals, whether it was Yuding True Person, True Person Taiyi, or Huanglong True Person, was one of relief.
They are from Heavenly Court.
Not Lady Pingxin.
Then, just as they were all preparing to make their move, hoping to use their Innate Spirit Treasure to take down Houtu, they suddenly realized...
But at the very moment the attack was launched, Huanglong True Person, the oldest and most experienced person in the Primordial World, suddenly realized what was happening.
May Heaven follow the example of the Houtu Earth God!
Following the example of Heaven and Houtu?
Houtu?
Isn't that still Pingxin?
Upon realizing what was happening, Huanglong True Person's expression changed drastically. He quickly withdrew his hand and then prepared to stop his two junior brothers.
Pity...
Ultimately, it was too late.
Whether it's the True Person Taiyi with the Perfection Daluo cultivation or the Yuding True Person wielding Supreme-Grade Innate Spirit Treasure, both are far stronger than Huanglong.
It was simply beyond his control to stop it.
Then...
Huanglong True Person saw Houtu smile gently, and his two junior brothers who had attacked were all frozen in place.
Not an inch can be made.
"Huanglong True Person, a disciple of Celestial Venerable Yuanshi, greets Ping... emulating the Heavenly Ruler and the Houtu Sovereign Houtu!"
Huanglong True Person, who was originally preparing to proclaim himself the Sage Pingxin, saw the gentle smile that reappeared on Houtu's face, and his Daluo- level Primordial Spirit was pushed to its limit.
The form of address was changed instantly.
Houtu was clearly very satisfied with Huanglong True Person's sensible attitude.
"Houtu greets Fellow Daoist Huanglong."
"I am unworthy of such an honor, fellow Daoist. I am simply following the example of the Houtu Goddess Houtu and may call me Huanglong."
Having learned Houtu's true identity, Huanglong dared not address her as a fellow Daoist and quickly spoke up.
"Then it's your way..."
Although both were seekers of the Dao, it was not a big deal for Houtu to address him as a fellow Daoist. However, judging from Huanglong's expression, he clearly dared not accept the title, and Houtu did not insist.
"Young friend Huanglong... and your two junior brothers, why don't you just stay here and watch quietly?" Houtu said gently.
"Yes, sir!"
Huanglong dared not utter the slightest objection.
At this time, Houtu had also released her restraints on True Person Taiyi and Yuding True Person.
However, although they were restrained, their five senses Divine Sense were not sealed off. They naturally heard the conversation between Houtu and Huanglong earlier.
Although I acted too quickly and didn't have time to react.
But they weren't Primordial World Little White Yang Jian, so they naturally recognized Houtu's identity.
After the restraints were lifted, he dared not move an inch, quietly sheathing his sword and standing still.
He looked extremely dejected.
Especially Yuding, whose gaze towards Yang Jian in the distance already contained a hint of sorrow.
Having already alerted this person, it's no longer possible for them to retreat unscathed.
Yang Jian might even perish on the spot.
The immense power of the Underworld the Unseen Yang Jian, rendering him unable to move.
This feeling of being oppressed to the point of being unable to move drove Yang Jian to even greater madness, his scarlet eyes growing increasingly crazed, almost devoid of any reason.
Looking at Yang Jian before him, the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld sighed softly.
The gains from that brief battle alone were enough to equal his 100,000 years of arduous cultivation.
If it were a different time or place, he really wanted to continue fighting Yang Jian.
Pity...
Looking at the crazed Yang Jian before him, the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld became solemn and said in a deep voice, "Yang Jian... I promise you, I will plead for you before the Venerable One and spare your life."
"I will also investigate your mother's matter. If it is indeed my Underworld that took your mother's soul, then I will definitely give you an explanation."
"So..."
Yang Jian, who was on the verge of madness, could not hear what the Underworld Ghost Emperor was saying at all. Only when the Ghost Emperor mentioned the word "mother" did Yang Jian's soul tremble.
Yang Jian, who had been suppressed and imprisoned in place by the power of the Underworld, miraculously began to move, murmuring two words.
"Mother... Mother!"
"Um?"
The Underworld Ghost Emperor's expression froze.
It was so faint that he couldn't hear it clearly.
But there's no doubt that Yang Jian just spoke.
The Ghost Emperor of the Underworld's expression changed slightly, and a bad premonition immediately welled up in his heart.
But before he could react...
Yang Jian, who should have been firmly imprisoned in place, trembled all over and slowly broke through the restraints of the Underworld's authority.
Then he suddenly looked up to the sky and let out a long, shrill roar.
At that moment, the golden thread between Yang Jian's brows shone with an incomparably dazzling golden light.
One eye suddenly opened.
These are not ordinary eyes, but... Heavenly Eye!
The moment the Heavenly Eye opened, the brilliant golden light that had been shining in all directions suddenly condensed into a beam and shot towards the Underworld ghosts and gods in front of it.
The speed of that golden light far exceeded the limit of Daluo Golden Immortal, and even... a Quasi-Sage could only vaguely detect the trace of this golden light before he could react.
In an instant, the golden light pierced through the Underworld spirits before them.
Without the slightest hindrance, most of the body of the Underworld ghost was directly melted and destroyed by the golden light.
This is not a simple destruction, but a complete annihilation.
If it were a normal defeat, like the previous Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, the ghost body could be easily reassembled, and it wouldn't even be considered an injury.
But at this moment...
The Underworld Emperor suffered an indelible and devastating blow.
Even if Yang Jian hadn't lost his mind at that moment, and if the Underworld spirits hadn't instinctively dodged when they sensed something was wrong, it would have been a different story.
It's likely that at this point, the fate is far more than just most of their body being melted away and destroyed.
"This... this..." The severely injured Ghost Emperor of the Underworld stared at Yang Jian in disbelief, his face extremely pale.
He never expected this.
Yang Jian, who was imprisoned by the authority of the Underworld, was able to break free and unleash such a dazzling and incredible power.
But...
Even if it's hard to believe, that's the truth.
Whether the truly powerful beings could change what had already happened in the Primordial World was unknown to the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, but he certainly could not.
Looking at Yang Jian before him, and at the Heavenly Eye on the other's forehead that was once again shining with brilliant light.
Although the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld found it hard to believe, he did not feel resentful.
Although he could see that the Heavenly Eye on Yang Jian's forehead was extremely extraordinary, it was probably not Yang Jian's own power.
But...
He also relied on the power of the Underworld, and he was the one who made the first move.
Coupled with the fierce battle that had just taken place, although he felt regret, he felt no resentment and instead calmly accepted his death.
"These tens of thousands of yuan spent on work in the Underworld are essentially wasted, and I'll probably have to spend tens of thousands more to work for the Empress for free," the Underworld Ghost Emperor thought to himself with self-mockery.
As a member of the Sage's faction, once one reaches the Daluo level, there is no longer any real danger of perishing.
Even if one dies, with the protection of Sage, one will not enter the Guixu, but can return from the vast River of Time.
Only...
Having disgraced the Underworld and perished in the process, he was reborn under the protection of Sage.
His contribution of tens of thousands of yuan in the Underworld will probably be wiped out, and after returning, he will have to work for free to pay off the debt.
However...
The moment that dazzling light burst forth once more, a delicate, white hand silently reached out from the void.
It stood in front of that dazzling light.
The divine light, which could easily pierce even the Daluo Ghost Emperor, was now blocked by that fair and delicate hand, unable to advance an inch.
"Was it you who emitted the light?"
A crisp sound rang out from the void. Although it was clear and pleasant to the ear, it was not hard to hear the anger contained within it.
Then, to the astonishment of the Underworld Ghost Emperor, a slender figure emerged from the void.
"This is impossible..."
Even though he was severely injured and on the verge of death, the Daluo Ghost Emperor still blurted out what he saw, his eyes wide open.
Even when Yang Jian broke free from the constraints of the Underworld's authority, he wasn't even a tenth as shocked or awestruck as he is now.
Except for a very few special passages, teleportation is prohibited throughout the entire Netherworld Underworld, especially teleportation through the void.
Great Emperor of Fengdu, who holds supreme power in the Netherworld Underworld, cannot teleport within the Netherworld Underworld.
Because this is not a rule of the Netherworld Underworld, but rather... the Sage Pingxin who created the Netherworld Underworld, the Lady Pingxin, does not allow teleportation.
This is also why the Underworld Ghost Emperor did not expect any powerful beings in the Underworld to come to his rescue.
In the entire Netherworld Underworld, apart from Lady Pingxin, no ghost could arrive in time to save him.
But...
"Am I hallucinating because I'm about to die? So even Daluo Golden Immortal experience hallucinations before they perish!"
The Ghost Emperor of the Underworld looked dazed.
However, Guiling ignored the Underworld Ghost Emperor behind him and instead frowned as he looked at Yang Jian in front of him.
Just now.
That first beam of brilliant divine light, piercing through the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld, swept across an immeasurable distance in an instant, and then...
By sheer coincidence, it landed on the Yellow Springs Road, and flew directly towards Guiling and the others.
If it weren't for the fact that the Primordial Spirit Guiling was at its peak of spiritual activity due to the influence of Lady Pingxin, then...
She might not even be able to stop this sudden divine light.
If that divine light had been aimed at her or Jinling, it would have been alright; although the divine light was terrifyingly powerful, it wouldn't have been enough to harm them.
But that divine light wasn't aimed at any of them; it was aimed at the Three Xiaos.
For the Three Xiaos Daluo Golden Immortal, even being touched or grazed by that divine light would result in severe injury.
This is also why the Guiling is angry.
Guiling looked at Yang Jian before him, the anger that had been rising in his heart subsided slightly.
She could tell that Yang Jian had gone mad and lost his reason.
Although it's unbelievable, it's clear that the attack that struck them from an immeasurably vast distance was truly a 'coincidence,' not something Yang Jian deliberately aimed at.
Certainly...
The fact that his anger had subsided slightly did not mean that Guiling was now without anger.
Guiling stared at the crazed Yang Jian before him.
He may be spared the death penalty, but he cannot escape punishment.
With a wave of his right hand, Guiling a faint Small Thousand World in his palm, which he then gently placed on Yang Jian's body.
That's right.
It's not about smashing or throwing, but about gently placing it down.
Although the Guiling did not use her full strength to create the world, if she were to unleash a Small Thousand World, it would be quite powerful.
Yang Jian would probably die on the spot.
Even if it were just gently placed down, the terrifying mass of this Small Thousand World would be enough to suppress Yang Jian at this moment.
Its binding force is even far greater than the suppressive power previously exerted by the Ghost Emperor of the Underworld using the authority of the Underworld.
Even with the immense power of that mysterious Heavenly Eye, it couldn't budge the slightest bit the Small Thousand World pressing down on Yang Jian.
Impotent rage.
That would be the best description of Yang Jian's current state of madness.
