Chapter 726: Shocking Battle

Blazing! As the two hall masters from Heaven Saint Hall and Blood Saint Hall swiftly advanced towards the depths of the Thunder Pool, the Saint Yuan Palace Master also made his move. Golden sacred flames surged skyward from his palm.

The golden sacred flames incinerated the void, rising and transforming into three golden fire dragons that roared directly towards Sect Master Qing Yang, Venerable Heaven Sword, and Venerable Ancient Whale.

Where the golden fire dragons passed, the void itself melted.

Upon witnessing this, Sect Master Qing Yang and the two others dared not hesitate. Their Law Domains emerged, and vast Genesis Qi surged, clashing head-on with the golden fire dragons.

The resulting clash seemed to tear heaven and earth apart.

While the Saint Yuan Palace Master single-handedly fought against three Law Domain stage experts, the Demon Luo Mansion Master fixed his gaze on Palace Master Dan Qingzi of the Hundred Flowers Immortal Palace, a look of desire appearing on his greasy face.

“Heh heh, Palace Master Dan Qingzi, why don’t I keep you company?”

Despite the desire on his face, Demon Luo’s eyes were filled with chilling ruthlessness.

A black Law Domain enveloped him. The Genesis Qi within his Law Domain surged like a torrent, transforming into countless monstrous ghost faces that surged overwhelmingly towards Dan Qingzi.

The Heavenly Ghost Mansion and the Hundred Flowers Immortal Palace had long-standing grievances; they were old adversaries.

Seeing this, Dan Qingzi snorted coldly. A colorful Law Domain emerged around her, and she met the attack head-on, completely unafraid.

Boom! Boom! As the two Law Domain experts clashed, the resulting commotion caused even the void to tremble.

Elder Xuan, meanwhile, kept his gaze fixed on Lei Jun. The latter, watching the earth-shattering battlefield, smiled faintly and remarked, “Such a great battle hasn’t occurred in Cangxuan Heaven for many years.”

He turned his gaze to Elder Xuan and said, “Can’t you see? Cangxuan Heaven is indeed on the verge of a great change. You are a Law Domain expert, capable of being a formidable figure. Why insist on being an old servant sweeping mountains?”

Elder Xuan replied expressionlessly, “Not everyone is as ungrateful as you. When I couldn’t cultivate back then, my master personally cleansed my marrow and tempered my meridians. Otherwise, by now, I would have long turned into a handful of dust. I have no interest in becoming a formidable figure; I only wish to repay his kindness.”

“Lei Jun, the only thing I want to do now is send you to apologize to my master!”

As his words fell, his Law Domain emerged. His hunched figure, at this moment, erupted with an imposing aura, like a towering mountain propping up the sky, making heaven and earth tremble.

In the next instant, he stepped out into the void.

Lei Jun was surrounded by a Law Domain of lightning. His eyes were gloomy, no longer holding their previous composure. Like a furious Thunder King, he clashed with Elder Xuan.

Rumble! This entire world was divided into several battlefields. Further away, top experts from various factions watched the scene with fearful expressions.

The battle of the Six Great Sects! Those who had not reached the Law Domain stage were simply not qualified to intervene.

As these Law Domain experts clashed, Nascent Soul stage experts from the Six Great Sects also shot out, making this world even more chaotic and violent.

Meanwhile, the two hall masters of the Saint Palace rushed directly into the depths of the Thunder Pool, towards the void space where the Cangxuan Saint Stamp was located.

Zhou Yuan also saw the two approaching Nascent Soul stage experts and felt his scalp tingle. With his current Divine Dwelling stage strength, he probably wouldn't last a single round against a Nascent Soul stage expert.

His strength was still too weak!

The Hall Master of the Blood Saint Hall from the Saint Palace coldly locked his gaze on Zhou Yuan in the void space and sneered, “So it was you, brat, who killed my Blood Saint Hall disciples in the Profound Origin Cave Heaven?”

As his voice fell, he didn't give Zhou Yuan a chance to explain. With a wave of his sleeve, blood-red Genesis Qi roared forth, transforming into a monstrous blood-red python. Every scale on the python seemed substantial, exuding overwhelming ferocity.

Although Divine Dwelling stage experts could also manifest Genesis Qi into forms, that was merely using Genesis Qi to simulate other shapes. At the Nascent Soul stage, however, it was no longer simple Genesis Qi manifestation but Genesis Qi spiritualization.

Any Genesis Qi unleashed by them possessed extremely formidable power.

Zhou Yuan's expression changed drastically as he watched the roaring blood-red python. He simply dared not receive such an attack, as the cultivation gap between them was too vast.

However, just as Zhou Yuan was in a desperate situation, a clear sword hum suddenly resonated through heaven and earth. A sword beam struck down directly from the void, forcefully splitting the blood-red python in two.

The chillingly sharp sword qi also shredded the python into pieces.

A figure appeared between the two Saint Palace hall masters and the void space.

“Peak Master Ling Jun?” Zhou Yuan was startled to see the person who had suddenly intervened.

Ling Jun held a long sword, his long hair flowing. His face, as handsome as a young man's, was now as icy cold as ten-thousand-year-old profound ice.

“Ling Jun, are you here to die for love?” the Blood Saint Hall Master said with a mocking smile.

Ling Jun ignored him. He simply turned his head, glanced at Zhou Yuan in the void space, and said, “Find an opportunity to take the Cangxuan Saint Stamp and leave. This is no place for you to stay.”

Hearing this, Zhou Yuan inwardly groaned. How could he possibly take the Cangxuan Saint Stamp? He had tried earlier, but the Cangxuan Saint Stamp was indescribably heavy. Even with all his strength, he couldn't budge it an inch.

However, Peak Master Ling Jun didn't have time to say more to him at this moment. After all, the two hall masters before him were no weaker than him. In a one-on-one fight, he wouldn't be afraid, but against two, it would likely be troublesome.

“Hmph, you think you can stop us alone? Ling Jun, you’re being too fanciful!” The Blood Saint Hall Master’s eyes were blood-red. In the next instant, a vast sea of blood seemed to surge from behind him, bringing with it an intense reek of gore.

His robes fluttered, and the surging sea of blood instantly tore through the void. Carrying endless corrosive qi, it swept towards Peak Master Ling Jun.

Watching the rampaging sea of blood, Peak Master Ling Jun slowly tightened his grip on his long sword. In the next instant, millions of sword lights erupted, forming a dazzling river of swords that clashed directly with the sea of blood.

Boom! Boom! The clash between them immediately stirred up monstrous fluctuations within the Thunder Pool.

The Heaven Saint Hall Master was expressionless. He ignored Peak Master Ling Jun's obstruction, his figure like a phantom, directly piercing through the void and swiftly passing by.

Peak Master Ling Jun sensed the Heaven Saint Hall Master's presence and swept his sword light to block him.

However, a blood-red monstrous beast appeared out of nowhere, instantly swallowing the sword light. It was then immediately shredded by the chilling sword light.

“Ling Jun, your opponent is me. Don’t really infuriate him, or today, you might truly go to accompany Liu Lianyi,” the Blood Saint Hall Master’s figure emerged from the sea of blood, smiling faintly.

Peak Master Ling Jun’s eyes were chillingly sharp. A clear, crystal-like sword pill slowly rose from above his head.

At that instant, a resounding sword hum echoed through heaven and earth.

Seeing this, a hint of dread flashed in the Blood Saint Hall Master’s eyes. The sea of blood beneath his feet surged, and a massive blood-red scythe rose, grasped in his hand.

Instantly, a mighty aura of ferocity surged.

Peak Master Ling Jun glanced out of the corner of his eye at the Heaven Saint Hall Master, whose figure had already vanished into the void. He sighed inwardly, knowing he couldn't stop both of them.

Moreover, the Heaven Saint Hall Master was the strongest hall master in the Saint Palace.

“Zhou Yuan, you’re on your own now.”

Although back in the Cangxuan Sect, Zhou Yuan had caused their Sword-Comes Peak to lose considerable face, Ling Jun was, after all, a peak master and wouldn't hold a grudge against a mere disciple. However, at this critical moment, he truly had no spare capacity to protect him further.

In the void space.

Zhou Yuan watched ahead, feeling a chill run through his body. He saw the void ripple, and a figure slowly emerged—it was the Heaven Saint Hall Master.

His gaze immediately fell upon the Cangxuan Saint Stamp. A burning eagerness flashed in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.

The Heaven Saint Hall Master didn't even glance at Zhou Yuan behind him. With one hand behind his back, his eyes were fixed on the Cangxuan Saint Stamp. After a moment, a chilling, faint voice echoed through the void space.

“Brat, self-detonate your spirit now. Otherwise, if I have to make a move later, your death won’t be as quick or pleasant.”

Zhou Yuan's expression flickered. With the hand behind his back, he made a gesture to Yao Yao, who was still at the bottom of the stone steps: “Go!”

The current situation was too dangerous. Facing a Nascent Soul stage expert, Zhou Yuan didn’t know what effect his resistance would have. He also understood that he was in a dead end.

Zhou Yuan was not afraid of death, but he hoped to buy some time for Yao Yao to escape.

The Heaven Saint Hall Master’s gaze remained focused on the Cangxuan Saint Stamp. He said indifferently, “Still not self-detonating?”

Zhou Yuan’s mouth twitched slightly. He then took a deep breath, and a fierce look emerged from the depths of his eyes. In the next moment, his figure shot out.

His face, at this moment, gradually twisted into a look of madness.

Since it was a certain death situation, he might as well die a little more gloriously!
