Sovereign to Immortality

Although Zhong Kui was wounded by Yang Junxiu's accumulated attack, he still took the opportunity to escape.    

    

However, Yang Ting had been waiting for an opportunity. The instant Zhong Kui was about to escape, he summoned a bolt of Violet Firmament Divine Thunder to strike down.    

    

Even though Yang Ting's cultivation was only equivalent to a Golden Immortal, his main body was nurtured from the essence of a lightning treasure. Furthermore, his lightning techniques and abilities were naturally used to restrain the Ghost Clan cultivators.    

    

Zhong Kui, as the Great Rudra Immortal, was caught off guard by Yang Ting's lightning bolt and was sent tumbling through the air.    

    

At the same time, Yang Junxiu had already caught up to Zhong Kui. The blade of the Tiger Soul Slash continued to lengthen, aiming at Zhong Kui's waist.    

    

Zhong Kui was one of the few brave warriors among the Ghost Clan. Even though he was in dire straits, he still managed to recall the Great Southern Immortal Sword in time to block Yang Junxiu's magic treasure.    

    

However, the moment the two magic treasures collided, the expected sound of clashing metals didn't appear.    

    

Zhong Kui felt his Immortal's sword strike against an extremely flexible cane whip. The long blade of the Tiger Soul Slash instantly bent, and at the same time, the blade met Zhong Kui's attack. The entire magic treasure seemed to be broken as it slashed towards Zhong Kui's throat with a saber light.    

    

Zhong Kui obviously did not expect that the White Tiger Tribe cultivator who was known for having opened her eyes wide in battle would actually be able to suddenly unleash such an exquisite and delicate technique.    

    

Zhong Kui was, after all, the Ghost Clan's greatest expert in the art of combat. Even in such a situation, he was still able to react in time.    

    

He stretched his neck backwards and shouted, "Zheng!"    

    

A mouthful of Destiny Ghost Essence was spat out. In the midst of that loud roar, it turned into long spears and sharp swords that collided with the curved saber light of the Tiger Soul Slash and forced it back.    

    

A spear in the mouth. This was a sacred art passed down through the Confucian clan. It was quite similar to the 'Breaking Wind into Soldier Technique' that Yang Junshan had once seen from Ouyang Palin's body.    

    

However, the Confucian sacred art 'The Voice of Swords' was an immortal sacred art. In terms of grade and power, it far surpassed the Ouyang Family's legacy, the 'Blowing Wind into Armaments'.    

    

Zhong Kui was known in space as the "ghost, demon, and Confucian Trinity Cultivators." Judging from his Confucianism and divine abilities, the rumors were not fake.    

    

However, although Zhong Kui had repelled Yang Junxiu's magic treasure with his spear, he hadn't been able to completely disperse his blade light.    

    

The scattered blade lights swept across Zhong Kui's face, instantly slicing open a few blood ridges. A few blade lights struck Zhong Kui's mouth, causing his teeth to shatter. This caused the originally ugly Zhong Kui to look even more sinister.    

    

Just as Yang Junxiu was about to continue her attack and avenge Zhong Kui's sword strike, she suddenly felt the back of her head go numb. She hurriedly slashed the Tiger's Soul Slash towards her back.    

    

There was the sound of metal clanging against each other. Yang Junxiu couldn't help but stagger forward a few steps. When she turned around to look, she saw a rainbow flash above her head.    

    

A cawing sound rang out as a Three-Legged Golden Crow stretched out its claws from the rainbow light and grabbed Zhong Kui's sleeves before flying off into the distance.    

    

"Trying to escape again?"    

    

Yang Ting shouted loudly. One of his originally purple eyes was dyed with a layer of gold. Following that, a streak of purple golden lightning appeared out of nowhere and caught up with the rainbow light formed by the Three-Legged Golden Crow, chopping Immortal Emperor out of the sky.    

    

And right after that, the space behind Emperor Wang opened up like a blossoming flower. A huge silver fist emerged from within and smashed towards Emperor Wang and Zhong Kui.    

    

At this moment, there was no time for the Immortal Emperor to dodge. In fact, there was no time for him to dodge either. The moment that silver fist appeared, the surrounding space had already become immobilized.    

    

Fortunately, Zhong Kui also understood the logic behind this. Even though he was severely injured, he was still trying to mobilize the Essence in his body to join hands with Emperor Wang to block this giant fist.    

    

After a dull explosion, Emperor Wang and Zhong Kui were both sent flying. Zhong Kui even spat out a mouthful of blood in midair. His originally black face had turned a golden purple color. It was obvious that he was severely injured.    

    

Fortunately, Emperor Wang's injuries were much lighter than Zhong Kui's. He endured the roiling Essence in his body as he forcefully used the Rainbow Evasion Technique on Zhong Kui before finally successfully escaping.    

    

"Damn it, he got away again!"    

    

Yang Junxiu was only a step too slow. As she looked in the direction of Emperor Wang and Zhong Kui's disappearance, she was filled with hatred.    

    

In fact, if it weren't for Yang Ting and Yang Junshan attacking each other, the two of them would have fled even faster.    

    

The Elementary Scholar Yang Jun suddenly thought of someone else. She turned to look at Yang Junshan, only to see that he had slowly retracted one of her arms. Her hands, which were shining with a silvery light, were slowly returning to normal.    

    

Below Yang Junshan's feet, a few pieces of broken metal were scattered on the ground. It was obvious that they were fragments of the low-grade immortal equipment, the double-sided round axe.    

    

"What about that Mu Rong Qing Tian?"    

    

Yang Junxiu didn't see Mu Rong Qing Tian's body, did she also run away?    

    

If they were also successfully escaped, then the trap set by the siblings would have no success.    

    

"It exploded!"    

    

Yang Junshan nonchalantly said as he checked the 'silver sky' on his palm.    

    

After being upgraded to a mid-grade Dao Artifact, the quality of "Silver Sky" did not change for a long time.    

    

However, this time, after entering the Feng Tian world, Yang Junshan found out that the pair of silver gloves on his hands now showed signs of breaking through the upper grade Dao Artifact.    

    

"Blast it?" Yang Junxiu asked in surprise.    

    

Yang Junshan withdrew his gaze from "Silver Sky" and smiled, "It was Di Wang who got away, pushing him from behind. He coincidentally bumped into a fist I condensed from the 'Heaven Shaking Immortal Art'. This time, the person that Emperor Wang truly wants to cooperate should be Zhong Kui. From the looks of it, Murong Qingtian is more like a scapegoat! "    

    

"Unfortunately, the two of them managed to escape!" Yang Junxiu felt a sense of regret.    

    

Yang Junshan smiled and said, "Emperor Wang and Zhong Kui are indeed powerful. It would not be easy to kill them. But this time, the two of them are heavily injured, and even though they have immortal healing pills and the nourishment of the Myriad Heavens Sect, it is impossible for them to recover in a short period of time. Thus, while you are cultivating in seclusion here to reach the middle stage of the Da Luo sect, you will be disturbed by others. "    

    

Earlier, Yang Junshan had left while Yang Junxiu was in seclusion to set up a trap to lure Zhong Kui and the others who were watching to the side to reveal themselves. This time, Yang Junshan was truly leaving.    

    

While it was important for Yang Junxiu to break through to the middle stage of the Da Lou Realm in seclusion, it was more important to search for and fight for the primordial purple qi.    

    

"Big Brother, then I'll return the Absolute Beginning Xuan Light to you!"    

    

As Yang Junxiu spoke, a mysterious light appeared in her palm. It was the Absolute Beginning Mysterious Light that she had used to enter the abundantly beautiful world.    

    

He only heard her say, "I still don't know how long I'll be in closed-door training. If you have the Absolute Beginning profound light in your hands, once the Primordial Purple Qi appears, you'll quickly be able to sense it."    

    

Yang Junshan smiled but didn't take it. He reached out his hand and drew in the air beside him. A stream of mystical light flew out and hovered around his fingertip. If it wasn't a ray of Primal Chaos light, then what could it be?    

    

Yang Junxiu was astonished, "Brother, where did you get another stream of Grand Beginning Mystic Light?"    

    

Just as he said that, Yang Junxiu suddenly thought of something and continued, "It's that Mu Rong Qing Tian. Does he have the Xuan Qi of the Absolute Beginning with him?"    

    

Yang Junshan nodded and smiled, "That's right, the fact that this Murong Qingtian has the Primal Mysterious Light is something that I already knew about when I was at loggerheads with him. When that Di Wang realized that we were scheming against him and couldn't get the Mysterious Light from you, he set his sights on Murong Qingtian and used him as a scapegoat to gain the opportunity to escape. He also wanted to take the opportunity to get the Mysterious Light from him."    

    

"It's a pity that even though he's meticulous in his calculations, he doesn't know that I'm also plotting against the Absolute Beginning Mysterious Light from Murong Qingtian. As a result, his plan to kill two birds with one stone has failed."    

    

"Then …"    

    

Yang Junshan said, "Keep this Mysterious Light of Absolute Beginning for yourself. No one knows when it will appear or when it will appear. Maybe it will appear after you come out of seclusion." If it really is like this, then you and I can join hands and still have a chance to obtain two grandmist purple clouds. "    

    

Hearing this, Yang Junxiu was overjoyed, "Then I must break through my cultivation level as soon as possible!"    

    

Yang Junshan nodded and said, "Fellow Yang Ting will stay here and protect you during your closed door cultivation."    

    

Yang Junxiu hastened to say, "There's no need for that. Yang Hua and Yang Wang are not by your side. If you stay here, there won't be anyone you can use."    

    

Yang Junshan shook his head, and said with a serious face, "This place is not simple. Although I absorbed too much of the earth origin energy to produce a pool of the origin liquid, the power of the entire place has not been broken. The earth meridian has only become weaker, and when you come out, there might be some other surprises."    

    

Yang Junxiu nodded and said, "Alright then."    

    

However, Yang Junshan still didn't feel reassured. After a short pause, he took out a piece of muslin from his sleeve under Yang Junxiu's astonished gaze.    

    

"Eh? Bro, why did you take out the formation chess piece?"    

    

As soon as Yang Junxiu finished speaking, she saw Yang Junshan throw the veil. The veil which was originally gathered spread out as if blending with the surrounding void, covering the entire basin and its surrounding area completely as if it was covered by a thin layer of white fog.    

    

"Although Emperor Wang and Zhong Kui were heavily injured, it's not certain that they wouldn't return, or collude with the others to come back."    

    

Yang Junshan threw a chess piece into the fog and continued, "Now that I have left the chess piece here as well, with the protection of this array and with Fellow Yang Ting's help, even one or two Great Rudra together might not be able to break through the array. You can just stay inside and continue to break through the Twin Flower Peak."
