Suddenly, several True Lords manifested between heaven and earth, none other than the powerhouses who had hunted Daqian’s True Lords.
At this mont, everyone looked upon the scene, their faces exceedingly grim!
In the beginning, they hadn’t deigned to regard Daqian’s True Lords at all—after hunting a few, they rushed into the Inverted Five Elents Heaven-Slaying City, only to fall within, feeding the forging of the city’s foundational five-elent treasures.
But never had they thought things would end with both wife and soldiers lost!
The true-lord level Inverted Five Elents array was forcefully torn apart, suffering damage, and nearly half of the True Lords survived.
At this point, they could no longer make a move.
"Damn it!"
"Those bastards from Daqian—how did they get their hands on a relic of Lord Shenxiao?"
"What do we do? Do we block them or not?"
"Block, my ass! We already made it clear—once they broke through here, they passed the trial. If we strike again, Can Sutian will go mad."
"Damn it, damn it!"
...
Utter humiliation!
"Quick, into the city!"
"Though General Gu Hong only tore open the true-lord level inversion, the wanxiang level will also be affected sowhat—the power will weaken!"
"Don’t give them ti to regret!"
One True Lord suddenly growled in a low voice.
The Daqian martial artists who had not yet entered the city imdiately caught on, overjoyed, and rushed into the ancient city in a flurry!
Behind them, the rest opened their mouths, speechless for a long ti!
Everyone in the Spirit Realm felt their faces burning.
They hadn’t taken Daqian seriously at all!
Yet Daqian, sealed for thousands of years, dealt them a heavy lesson!
With Can Sutian watching, even if they wanted to go back on their word, they dared not.
They could only watch, helpless, eyes wide open.
So wanted to make a move, but the Daqian Martial Artists were too swift—within the blink of an eye, only Xu Yang remained outside.
Deal with Xu Yang?
The martial artists who’d wanted to strike shrank back.
Forget it.
Staring at the swirling, dazzling spiritual radiance as it gradually stilled, Xu Yang took a deep breath and strode toward the ancient city.
This, for Daqian, was naturally a great boon!
The instant Xu Yang stepped into the city, atop the distant Cangyue Mountain, hundreds of thousands of miles away!
Can Sutian was seated atop the peak, gazing toward the Inverted Five Elents Heaven-Slaying City, a subtle smile upon his lips as he waved his sleeve.
Swoosh! Swoosh!
A golden spirit coffin and a precious bottle materialized out of thin air.
Within the bottle, a faint golden spiritual wisp, finger-sized, floated horizontally.
Can Sutian opened the bottle, and the wisp drifted out, sending forth the faintest of spiritual ripples.
"Go in and fuse first. Once I find a spiritual object to restore your body, the realm of Lord Shenxiao shall be yours at will!"
Swoosh!
The wisp trembled slightly, then drifted into the golden spirit coffin!
If Xu Yang were here, he’d imdiately recognize that the aura of this wisp was identical to Gu Hong.
...
From the gate, the streets, towers, and buildings inside the ancient city were clearly visible, as if everything were perfectly ordinary!
But the instant Xu Yang crossed the gate and truly set foot within, the long streets and edifices before his eyes vanished utterly, leaving no trace at all!
There wasn’t even the slightest ripple.
It was as if all had been but mirages, dissolving before the wind unbidden!
"Teacher, did you sense anything?"
"No!"
"As expected of the Spirit Realm—there are things here of note."
Gu Jun and Jian Chuan both spoke, their voices tinged with astonishnt.
This was wanxiang-level, yet even True Lords had discerned nothing awry—truly remarkable!
The air was suffused with multicolored spiritual brilliance, vast and mighty, blanketing the skies above.
On the ground, five lines appeared.
Xu Yang stood precisely at the center, gazing at the five lines stretching out in five directions!
tal, wood, water, fire, earth—each matched to gold, green, blue, red, and yellow!
At once, Xu Yang felt an intense, overwhelming five-elental aura.
Yet it was unlike common five elents, being full of chaotic currents, impossible to clearly distinguish.
"Inverted Five Elents!"
Xu Yang muttered in a low voice.
His expression shifted to grave caution, as he carefully sent his spiritual power outward in all directions.
At the sa ti, Jian Chuan and Gu Jun were probing the surroundings.
After dozens of breaths, give or take—
Xu Yang gained so understanding of this domain.
"Five elents, five paths—only one of them is the path of life!"
"Or rather, all five could be paths of death; for with the five elents inverted, the door of life may not exist at all!"
"To make it through, unless one is a true master of arrays, one must rely on absolute might to withstand the wrath of the inverted five elents."
"The mont you step out, the silent inverted five elents here will instantly erupt!"
"Too bad, among all of us, not a single soul knows arrays!"
"Daqian’s array masters are almost nonexistent!"
Inside the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant, everyone forced a wry smile.
Yet no one seed worried.
Given Xu Yang’s strength, there was nothing to fear!
According to Shi Haoting and the others, Xu Yang’s power ought to see him through with ease.
"Mr. Jian, you need not fret over Mr. Ning. His strength is considerable; this will serve as a tempering for him. With his potential, he might very well improve greatly—and besides, my avatar remains by his side."
If true peril arises, Xu Yang would know instantly and personally control his avatar.
"Hmph, this old man is unworried—life and death are fated, fortune is with heaven! On his way out, I ard him with plenty of elixirs." Jian Chuan replied indifferently.
Within the Yin Yang Pendant, a Pill King and a Pill Emperor—before arriving, they made every preparation.
Their resources were largely refined into pills for critical monts such as this!
"By the way, how strong is your avatar?"
"..."
Listening to the stifled chuckles from within the Cyan Jade Yin Yang Pendant, the corners of Xu Yang’s mouth twitched.
Mr. Jian was still Mr. Jian.
Xu Yang couldn’t help but laugh. "Rest assured, Mr. Jian—my avatar is linked to . As my power rises, so does his; if I don’t directly control him, his strength matches Mr. Ning’s. If I do, he’ll prove even stronger!"
"Mm, excellent!"
Jian Chuan answered without a ripple, clearly at ease, and said no more.
Gu Jun couldn’t help grinning. "Kid, that reminder from the young lord of the Battle King Clan might be worth trying!"
Xu Yang nodded slightly.
He had just such an intention!
At once, Xu Yang fully activated the Cangxu Divine Eyes!
Back in Daqian, his Cangxu Divine Eyes had already reached their zenith, growing stronger as he did!
Especially after bearing the Barbarian God’s spiritual radiance, this potent divine technique, bequeathed by the Barbarian God, beca all the more extraordinary in his hands!
His eyes turned a deep, dark gold—profound and unfathomable. In that subtle shift, Xu Yang’s spirit surged forth with irresistible will.
In an instant, his two eyes beca as vast, boundless dark-gold voids, twisting into whirlpool storms, hungry to devour everything!
This was the first ti Xu Yang had unleashed the Cangxu Divine Eyes with his full might, without reservation!
He’d reached the utmost limit!
Even when battling Li Wang and Shi Haoting together, he’d never pushed so far.
Pain stabbed faintly from his pupils.
Xu Yang scanned the surroundings rapidly.
Weng~~
The swirling spiritual mist faded from his vision, perspective shrinking, piercing through illusion to grasp reality.
In a split second—
A mass of resplendent golden spiritual light filled his eyes!
He could vaguely see a golden spirit sword, and even from a distance, Xu Yang sensed its indescribable edge!
Along its edge were inlaid fist-sized, golden spirit crystals!
Hiss!
Xu Yang drew a sharp breath and snapped his eyes shut.
A drop of fresh blood slipped from his pupil.
It took dozens of breaths for Xu Yang to open his eyes again—his vision blurred, then slowly cleared.
"What a terrifying spiritual divine weapon!"
Xu Yang’s heart pounded, yet an irrepressible joy shone on his face.
He’d seen the supre spirit crystals of which Shi Haoting spoke!
Their energy, like that of the spiritual divine weapon, sustained the operation of the Inverted Five Elents Heaven-Slaying City!
Even without the divine weapon, just a supre spirit crystal would grant a considerable cultivation boost.
"Shi Haoting did not deceive !"
