Zhang Yan ignored them, rely lifting his sleeve and smiling, "This place of boundless sea and sky, Fellow Daoist Si, why not co out!"
Just as the words fell, the sleeve suddenly shook, and a black shadow flew out, plunging straight into the water with a thud. After a mont, a shadow faintly appeared beneath the sea, gradually expanding, a mysterious aura slowly diffusing out.
He was never one to be overly proud and arrogant. Since he had the great aid of Dragon Carp Siren at his side, why would he abandon it?
Yet this demon had transford using mana, sleeping in his sleeve for years, needing a mont to recover, so he mainly delayed, waiting for it to lock this heaven and earth, then he could leisurely deal with the five one by one.
Qu Changzhi instinctively felt uneasy and shouted, "Junior Brother, Fellow Daoist Jiang, act quickly! If delayed, it will be too late!"
Zhang Yan chuckled and lightly pressed his hand, and sixteen sword lights hesitated for a mont, then suddenly exploded in all directions.
The sword light was incomparably swift, in a blink reaching near, the three couldn’t afford to attack the enemy, each raising Protective Treasure Light and Dharma Treasure.
But that sword light did not retreat, hovering and dancing around them. Qu Changzhi, knowledgeable and experienced, knew once the wandering sword light found a flaw, slipping inside, it would take life instantly, forcing them to be utterly vigilant, not daring any negligence.
As for Wang Guangyuan and Jiang Daoist, they simply retreated a hundred zhang away.
Though this action avoided the pressing of sword light, it posed no threat to Zhang Yan at all.
Qu Changzhi shot a glance at the two, slightly displeased. He painstakingly set the forbidden array to restrict Zhang Yan’s form, intending for them to attack freely, but if they rely dodged, what was the purpose?
Just then, suddenly, a section of the sea several miles away broke open, two water columns shot up, revealing two towering figures.
Qu Changzhi turned to look, seeing unexpectedly the Yu Family brothers reappear, a joy unknowingly rose inside, relaxing a bit, secretly thinking, "So earlier, Zhang Daoist rely used the Moving Technique, this is much easier to handle."
If Zhang Yan could easily take two Nascent Soul cultivators, fighting was unnecessary, better to scatter quickly.
The Yu brothers, skill yet to be shown, were moved into the sea by Zhang Yan, originally sea birds cultivated into demons, unaccustod to water, choked several mouthfuls, each holding a grievance inside, now rushing up, wishing to smash Zhang Yan’s Heavenly Spirit with a whip.
Zhang Yan saw them appear once more, faintly smiling, waving his sleeve again, the Yu brothers saw a blur before their eyes, realizing the danger, hurriedly trying to evade, but at that mont, a pressure descended from Heaven, everyone felt their bodies stiffened, bound as if by a giant force, unable to move a bit.
Qu Changzhi, shocked, said, "Heaven and Earth Locking?"
Zhang Yan’s gaze shifted, Qu Changzhi, a Nascent Soul Second Realm cultivator, was his first target to eliminate. A flick of his fingers and a drop of Xuanming Heavy Water flew out, piercing through his forehead, yet Qu Changzhi’s whole being trembled, transforming into a mass of Essence Qi slowly drifting away, eventually dissipating into the atmosphere.
Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows, slightly surprised, "Avatar?"
Within these surroundings bound by Heaven and Earth Locking Skill, Qu Changzhi applying such a Death Replacent Technique like the Demon Sect, was impossible to escape his perception, thus he realized this person was a re avatar, his true body likely elsewhere.
With that realization, he ceased to care, heart commanded the Sword technique, a sword light flew a hundred zhang out, Jiang Daoist’s head promptly fell.
About to act against the Yu brothers, Dragon Carp Siren suddenly spoke, "Master, those bird demons are also exceptional, still have a bit of utility, perhaps leave them to to handle."
Zhang Yan slightly reconsidered, nodded, "Fine."
The sea suddenly surged, sweeping away the Yu brothers, their figures vanished.
At this point, only Wang Guangyuan remained, seeing Zhang Yan’s gaze, fear gripped his heart, yet outwardly he feigned calm, "Daoist Zhang, I bear no great enmity against you, if you spare this ti, I am willing to offer my entire possessions, even reveal several secrets..."
Zhang Yan faintly smiled, lifted his hand, and pointed. Instantly, a purple lightning crashed down.
Wang Guangyuan, only a few years into having a Nascent Soul, possessing rely several defensive magical devices, how could he withstand such Divine Passage Skills, in a blink, his body exploded, scattering into countless fragnts.
Zhang Yan surveyed the surroundings, seeing the sea now was vast and empty, no unusual signs, gaze turned downward, speaking, "Fellow Daoist Si, the mountain lacks water, this North Sea water is yours to roam, perhaps settle here, guard this sea territory."
Within the sea, waves rolled, Dragon Carp Siren erged, replying, "I shall guard this place well for Master."
Within the Divine House’s Eastern Border, an uninhabited valley.
Qu Changzhi trembled slightly, waking from ditation, wiped cold sweat from his forehead, feeling lingering fear, "That Zhang Daoist actually has a Nascent Soul Third Realm cultivator aiding him, were it not for my Powerful Avatar to avoid disaster, I would have been dood."
This Gate Dao Skill was a secret from Ancestor Hui Xuan, allowing cultivation of an avatar indistinguishable from oneself, barring inability to wield Divine Skills, all Dharma Treasure and Escape Techniques could be used, even if destroyed, no major harm, after a year or half of cultivation, it could be sacrificially refined once more.
However, during its use, the true body must remain still, sitting silently within a cave, if disturbed, veins would burst leading to death, thus not even his Junior Brother Wang Guangyuan knew of his skill.
Before fighting, he prepared for failure, if Zhang Yan could be eliminated instantly best, if not, serve as a probe, even with losses, it wasn’t too significant.
He stood, forcing a smile, "Though I learned many of Zhang Daoist’s techniques, this fellow is incredibly difficult to provoke, forget it, first return to the Mountain Gate, inform the teacher of Junior Brother Wang’s demise, see what he plans."
