Rumble!
The battle in the sky continued fiercely, as if the three had ignited true fire. Above Chu Le'er's head, a golden crown spun around, while Wu Kuangren, with his severed arm regrown, manifested the Sun Dharma Aspect above his head. His every move unleashed terrifying flas, akin to an ancient deity.
And Qi Ao, with a silver small sword hovering unsteadily between his brows, although motionless, posed the greatest threat, drawing much of Chu Le'er's attention.
The many disciples of the Heavenly Witch Sect below no longer cheered, sensing sothing amiss. Even if the two Immortal Venerable level figures had their strengths suppressed, they were by no ans weaklings.
In other words, with the Sect Leader fighting for his life above, how could they stand idly by below?
Nurous disciples sat cross-legged, sacrificing streams of blood energy that seeped into the Heavenly Witch Blood Formation, continuously reinforcing it and applying pressure on the two Immortal Venerables.
"Why such resistance, beauty? Why not submit to ? I'll marry you as a concubine and speak well of you before the Taoist Master, isn't that a win-win situation?"
Wu Kuangren continuously provoked Chu Le'er with words, and the converging terrifying attacks made the very space destabilize.
At this mont, the passage flickered as a blinding golden light overflowed from it.
"Jun Mo is here! Now's the ti!"
Qi Ao suddenly turned, thrusting a sword that seed to tear the heavens and earth, emitting a dazzling light. It struck the blood formation at a point, while a golden light from within the passage simultaneously blasted the formation.
With internal and external attacks, the blood formation shattered, while countless disciples below spit blood, their auras rapidly waning.
Conversely, the auras of Qi Ao and Wu Kuangren seed slightly bolstered.
Previously bearing the pressure of the lower realm, their strength was suppressed, and the Heavenly Witch Blood Formation also exerted pressure. Now, with the formation destroyed, they could naturally exert more strength.
From the passage, the golden light finally burst out, and a young man in a Taoist gown, hands behind his back, leisurely walked out, exuding confidence and extraordinary deanor.
The third Immortal Venerable, had arrived!
Chu Le'er retracted her hand, still standing indifferently, her icy countenance showing no change.
Below, the disciples were helped down, and another Heavenly Witch Blood Formation soared upwards, enveloping the entire Immortal Mountain. It was the last barrier, sustained by tens of thousands of cultivators and all the Heavenly Witch disciples.
However, whether it was Jun Mo, or Qi Ao and Wu Kuangren, they rely watched calmly, showing no intention to hinder it, and their eyes carried no ripples.
Below, a disciple shouted to Chu Le'er, "Sect Leader! Leave quickly!"
However, Chu Le'er seed not to hear, remaining unmoved.
Jun Mo walked step by step towards Chu Le'er, with Immortal Venerables Chu Kuangren and Qi Ao naturally standing behind him, taking a subordinate stance.
"Chu Le'er, Heavenly Witch Sect's Saintess, early stage Golden Immortal Realm." Jun Mo smiled faintly, gazing at the frosty Chu Le'er with gentlemanly politeness, yet those truly understanding him knew how terrifying this seemingly courteous scholar was.
"I'm very curious about how you managed to evade the upper realm's pursuit for a thousand years?"
Chu Le'er looked at Jun Mo, replying coldly without answering, "Only you three?"
The tone suggested indifference towards the three before her, even regretting that more hadn't co, wishing an Immortal Emperor would arrive in person.
Wu Kuangren sneered, "Arrogant! If not for being in the lower realm, I could kill you with one hand!"
Jun Mo remained unconcerned, "Just the three of us."
Chu Le'er nodded slightly, "Understood."
Jun Mo spoke again, "I answered your question, in fairness, will you answer mine?"
Chu Le'er nodded, lightly waving her hand, a dark-green bead spun and danced.
"Divine Artifact! Heavenly Profound Bead!"
Jun Mo and the others' pupils constricted in unison, with Wu Kuangren instinctively wanting to flee toward the passage.
Divine Artifacts, surpassing Immortal Artifacts, are weapons an Immortal Emperor is qualified to use. The reason the Heavenly Witch Sect was besieged a thousand years ago contributed greatly to possessing this Divine Artifact. The upper realm's several Immortal Emperors pursued and cleansed the Heavenly Witch remnants continually since then because of this.
Jun Mo was montarily lost in thought, then returned to his calm deanor, seemingly prepared all along, "The legend says the Heavenly Profound Bead is an ancient item with unfathomable power, acquired by the Heavenly Witch Sect on the Divine Demon Battlefield a thousand years ago. Indeed!"
"However... the young lady is only at the early stage of the Golden Immortal Realm, even if you can activate the Divine Artifact, the power exerted is minimal. Taking out the Divine Artifact, do you really think you can keep the three of us here?"
As Jun Mo spoke, Qi Ao and Wu Kuangren exchanged smiles.
If not for the Divine Artifact appearing, eliminating the Heavenly Witch remnants would have been minor, possibly drawing suspicion from the three Immortal Emperors beyond the Taoist Master. But obtaining the Divine Artifact would be a great achievent!
Chu Le'er seed not to notice the expressions on the three's faces, rely gazing dreamily at the spinning Heavenly Profound Bead on her fingertip, finally sighing, "No."
The power of a Divine Artifact is world-shattering, yet slaying strong Immortal Venerables is not easily achieved.
Moreover, the Heavenly Profound Bead is not primarily for combat, but more for assistance, divining the heavens.
Seeing Chu Le'er reveal this, Jun Mo's smile widened, "Since you can't, why take out the Divine Artifact? Do you wish to submit to ?"
Ever since Chu Le'er revealed the Heavenly Profound Bead, the outco was set. Even if the Divine Artifact's power temporarily prevented her death by the three, the Taoist Master would certainly arrive personally.
By then, everything would be settled.
Chu Le'er also curved her lips into a smile, "Alone, I can't keep three Immortal Venerables, but if the Divine Artifact self-detonates, can the three of you escape unhard?"
Her calm voice, as if stating a trivial matter, changed the confident expressions of the three to concern.
The horror of a Divine Artifact's self-detonation is unknown! At such a level, who would choose this thod against enemies?
But it is certain that if a Divine Artifact self-detonates, the force will surely annihilate worlds!
"Young lady, Divine Artifacts are treasures of heavenly essence, invaluable, a thousand years ago the Heavenly Witch Sect preferred destruction over damaging this artifact, are you sure you want to self-destruct it, nullifying the efforts of the past?"
Jun Mo stared intently at the Heavenly Profound Bead in Chu Le'er's hand, poised to seize it at any hesitance.
However, Chu Le'er's response was a cold laugh, as the dark-green bead shone brightly, making the entire space tremble.
"This madwoman!"
Jun Mo and the others wailed inwardly, furiously mustering immortal power, drawing their Immortal Artifacts to defend against the impending storm.
Just then, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended, along with an old indifferent voice, "Le'er, put it away, the Taoist Master is too cowardly to co, the plan has failed. Why frighten these small fry?"
