Chapter 1210: 迎战

Streaks of light slipped through the cracks in the barrier, finally plummeting to the ground like meteorites. Within those streaks of light emanated powerful Genesis Qi fluctuations. Clearly, besides Grand Venerables Wan Zu and Yao Kui, Law Domain and Nascent Source stage experts had also infiltrated. Although most of the invading enemies were blocked by the barrier, those who managed to infiltrate still posed a hidden danger.

Currently, Cang Yuan and Zhuan Zhu had already made their move, and the opponents also had two Saints, so the situation would likely be deadlocked. If these Law Domain and Nascent Source stage enemies broke through the defenses and interfered with the Ancestral Dragon Lamp, then the enemy's objective would be achieved.

"Three Law Domain experts have infiltrated," Xi Jing said. "We will deal with them."

Xi Jing looked at Zhou Yuan, Zhao Lefu, Xue Qinglong, and Yi Yan. "As for the Nascent Source stage infiltrators, there should be slightly more of them. You four must form the final defensive line here and absolutely stop all of them."

Zhou Yuan and the other three all nodded.

Seeing this, Xi Jing said no more. The next moment, she, Mu Ni, and Sect Master Xuan Kun directly soared into the sky.

At the same time, three immense Law Domains suddenly expanded, directly engulfing the infiltrating streaks of light. They were primarily targeting some of the Nascent Source stage experts, hoping to deal with them first to lighten the burden on Zhou Yuan and the others.

But just as the three Law Domains expanded, a laughing voice suddenly rang out from the heavens and earth. A clear, piercing sonic wave spread outwards, and a Law Domain appeared out of thin air, directly colliding with Xi Jing's Law Domain.

Boom! Boom!

As the Law Domains collided, the heavens and earth instantly trembled, unleashing monstrous Genesis Qi impacts.

"Zhao Xiansun!" Xi Jing stood suspended in mid-air, her Wind God Law Domain roaring around her, transforming into countless gales. Her eyes coldly fixed on the figure that appeared before her – it was none other than Zhao Xiansun of the Wan Zu Domain!

Zhao Xiansun was also within his own Law Domain, where the power of his Law Domain formed a colossal falcon beneath his feet. The giant falcon seemed corporeal, exuding a savage and ferocious aura. Its might was such that even those at the perfected Nascent Source stage could barely withstand it.

Behind Zhao Xiansun, two other figures also unleashed their Law Domains. One of them was also from the Wan Zu Domain. The other was not unfamiliar: a man with pale skin and no eyebrows, who rotated luminous beads in his hand. He was Zhen Yu, a Law Domain expert from the Yao Kui Domain.

Xi Jing looked at Zhao Xiansun, a hint of mockery flashing in her eyes, and said, "Zhao Xiansun, you always claimed you wanted to compete with my Senior Brother. But now he's gone to contend with Grand Venerable Yao Kui, while you've merely been assigned here."

Hearing this, Zhao Xiansun's face instantly stiffened, and a gloomy anger flashed in his eyes. This matter had become a thorn in his side ever since Zhuan Zhu ascended to the Saint stage. He had always resented Zhuan Zhu's title as the strongest in the Law Domain stage, often disparaging it. But who would have thought that Zhuan Zhu could, after secluded cultivation, step into the Saint stage in a single stride? In comparison, Zhao Xiansun appeared to be nothing more than a joke.

"Xi Jing, don't just speak with your tongue," Zhao Xiansun said coldly. "Your Tianyuan Region has chosen the wrong side this time; you will certainly pay the price!"

"Wishful thinking."

Xi Jing retorted with a cold laugh. Their gazes collided, and a chilling killing intent emerged.

The next moment, the six Law Domain experts stepped forward, and as space warped, their six Law Domains began an earth-shattering collision.

Zhou Yuan, Zhao Lefu, Xue Qinglong, and Yi Yan stood on the mountaintop. They watched the distant Law Domain collision, their expressions all appearing somewhat solemn.

"Their Nascent Source experts are a bit more numerous than ours," Zhao Lefu said, squinting as he watched streaks of light piercing through the sky in the distance.

"Three perfected Nascent Source experts and three Great Nascent Source experts have descended." Xue Qinglong frowned. The opponents had clearly come prepared, and some other Nascent Source experts were still trapped within the barrier, unsure when they might suddenly break through. The situation today was quite disadvantageous for them, the Nascent Source experts.

"Today's matter is indeed troublesome," Xue Qinglong said with a hint of complaint. "If Grand Venerable Zhuan Zhu had brought one more perfected Nascent Source expert, we wouldn't be so passive."

Zhao Lefu and Yi Yan remained silent, as if they hadn't heard. How could they not understand the implication of her words? They were here for secrecy, thus there was a limit on the number of people. If one more perfected Nascent Source expert were to come, someone would naturally have to be replaced. And who would be replaced was self-evident: Xue Qinglong was clearly referring to Elder Zhou Yuan standing next to them.

This woman always acted like a hedgehog, daring to speak directly and without reservation even in front of Grand Venerable Zhuan Zhu. Yet, her talent was indeed exceptional. Among the three of them, Zhao Lefu was the strongest, ranking seventh on the Nascent Source List. Xue Qinglong ranked fifteenth. As for Yi Yan, he was slightly weaker, ranking beyond the top thirty.

Zhou Yuan, who was standing nearby, naturally heard Xue Qinglong's words. He couldn't help but smile, saying, "Elder Xue, although I've only just entered the Great Nascent Source stage, I believe I can still contend with a perfected Nascent Source expert."

Not only did Xue Qinglong momentarily freeze at his words, but Zhao Lefu and Yi Yan also looked at him with some surprise.

"I have no objection to Elder Zhou Yuan's talent," Xue Qinglong said indifferently. "I've never encountered anyone who could directly enter the Great Nascent Source stage in all my years of cultivation. It's just that Elder Zhou Yuan might not know the true gap between Nascent Source stages..."

However, Zhou Yuan waved his hand, not bothering to continue with her needless words. He directly instructed: "The three perfected Nascent Source experts will be temporarily held off by the three elders. As for the three Great Nascent Source experts, leave them to me."

The three of them fell silent upon hearing this. Did Zhou Yuan mean to fight three opponents alone?

Yi Yan, who had a good relationship with Zhou Yuan, couldn't help but kindly say, "Elder Zhou Yuan, you should still be cautious. Those three are all exceptional among Great Nascent Source experts, not unknown figures."

Zhou Yuan nodded.

Seeing this, the three naturally had nothing more to say. After all, Zhou Yuan was an elder of the Tianyuan Region, his status above theirs. In the past, they might not have taken him seriously, but after the conflict in the Guyuan Heaven, they could no longer ignore him. Take Xue Qinglong, for example. With her defiant nature, in the past, she probably wouldn't have even acknowledged Zhou Yuan, let alone obeyed his commands.

Zhou Yuan lightly tapped his foot, and his figure was the first to soar into the air. Watching his retreating figure, the three exchanged glances, all feeling a bit helpless.

Xue Qinglong frowned and said, "Elder Zhou Yuan is too arrogant. The Nascent Source stage is not child's play like the Heavenly Sun stage."

"Elder Xue, say no more."

Yi Yan shook his head and said, "Elder Zhou Yuan was able to overwhelm the entire Heavenly Sun generation of the Saint Race. Could we have done that when we were in the Heavenly Sun stage? Since he said he could stop those three Great Nascent Source experts, he must have some confidence."

Xue Qinglong was speechless. Zhou Yuan's achievement of overwhelming the Saint Race's Heavenly Sun generation was indeed too impressive. However, she still maintained her stance that the Nascent Source stage was far more profound than the Heavenly Sun stage.

Seeing her finally quiet down, Zhao Lefu and Yi Yan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Their expressions immediately turned solemn again. With a flicker of their figures, they appeared in the distant sky, each locking onto a powerful enemy at the perfected Nascent Source stage. The three powerful perfected Nascent Source enemies who had invaded this space were not unfamiliar to them; all had names on the Nascent Source List. This would undoubtedly be a fierce battle.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yuan's figure appeared on a mountain peak resembling a sword's edge. He stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes calmly watching the three streaks of light piercing through the sky in the distance. They were precisely the three powerful Great Nascent Source enemies.

Inside Zhou Yuan's Divine Dwelling, his Nascent Source, sitting cross-legged with closed eyes, opened its eyes. Vast and boundless Genesis Qi began to circulate. This would be his first battle since entering the Nascent Source stage. And he also wanted to use these three powerful Great Nascent Source enemies to test his current true combat strength... They would be the best whetstones.
