With each step taken, a Daoist aura would appear nearby.

The essence of Taoism converges and transforms into Tai Chi.

Li Tianyi was so captivated that he was completely unaware of the mutated corpse approaching.

As the distance closed, the corpse had just raised the bone knife when its arm instantly fell off.

At the same time, countless Daoist principles passed through its body.

His body was instantly torn to pieces.

At this moment, Yun Zhongzi was already engaged in a fierce battle with the four guardians. The Daoist aura he left behind was so powerful, which shows how astonishing his realm had become.

"I refuse to believe that this Daoist aura cannot be broken." Master Jiu Xie was furious as he manipulated the Corpse-Driving Bell. "Go, kill him."

A large number of mutated corpses approached.

Suddenly, Li Tianyi's hands moved in sync with the rhythm of the Daoist chant.

Sizzle!

The heads of the corpses in the front row all rolled off.

This strange state was intensifying, and Po Jun moved even more freely.

Master Jiu Xie was so angry he almost exploded. He bit his middle finger and flicked a few drops of his blood onto the corpse-driving bell.

when!

The sound resounded throughout the heavens and earth.

Li Tianyi awoke from his strange state, his face contorted with rage. "Disturbing my comprehension of a new technique deserves death!"

He charged forward with all his might, Po Jun swinging his sword repeatedly.

With each slash, several, or even a dozen, mutated corpses fell to the ground.

"You dare?"

Master Jiu Xie's heart was bleeding as he exerted all his strength to control the corpse-driving bell, and an extremely strange black aura rushed into the corpse.

The flesh, chopped into chunks, began to wriggle.

When they gather together, they let out a low growl.

"Ha, ha ha!" Master Jiu Xie seemed to be going crazy. "I failed hundreds of times, but I never expected to succeed at this moment."

A fierce killing intent flashed in his eyes, "Die!"

The remains sprang up from the ground, forming a huge, grotesque object covered in limbs but lacking a head.

Blood dripped from the patchwork from time to time, making it look extremely creepy.

Fear rose in Li Tianyi's heart, and he could only exert about 80% of his strength, not daring to confront the alien object head-on.

"Yes, that's it, smash him to death."

boom!

Each time the ground trembles, it leaves a deep crater.

After dodging for so long, his strength was diminished once again.

Countless weapons attacked, and despite repeatedly using the Golden Serpent Flash, his back was still slashed by the longest weapon, causing blood to flow freely.

A victorious smile appeared on the lips of Master Jiu Xie, and he rang the corpse-driving bell even faster.

Just as her smile reached its peak, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.

"You, you?" Disbelief flashed in his eyes as he clutched his spilled internal organs.

"Have you learned this technique of 'hitting an ox from across a mountain'?" Yun Zhongzi asked.

"Not yet learned."

Li Tianyi carefully sensed the changes in the surrounding atmosphere, constantly deducing in his mind, and the scene of Yun Zhongzi's attack gradually became clearer.

"So this is the essence of Tai Chi."

Raise the Po Jun sword and move in accordance with the derived moves.

Nothing happened around them.

"Could I have misunderstood?" He frowned slightly, thinking more carefully.

Master Jiuxie also stopped inflicting wounds, his eyes filled with hatred. "You old Taoist, you dare to ambush me? You're courting death!"

He controlled the giant corpse and charged forward.

Its arrival immediately disrupted the balance, and Yunzhongzi, no longer as composed as before, constantly dodged.

I could barely dodge the first few moves, but the more I tried, the more powerless I became.

"Go to hell!"

The four guardians attacked simultaneously, each strike aimed at a vital spot.

A resolute glint flashed in Yun Zhongzi's eyes, his clothes instantly billowed, and his extremely powerful and masculine energy surged outwards.

The evil sect hates righteousness the most, so the four of them quickly withdrew their attacks and created distance at lightning speed.

The giant corpse, however, was too terrified and, with its righteous spirit intact, unleashed countless blades of light.

The void trembled and swayed.

boom!

Despite his continuous dodging, Yun Zhongzi was unable to completely evade the attack, as a sword beam shot towards his brow.

The distance is getting closer and closer.

When it was less than ten centimeters away, it suddenly disappeared.

"This child is teachable!" Yun Zhongzi's heart was finally at ease, and he unleashed the full power of the Tai Chi sword technique.

A giant tai chi symbol emerged, enveloping the corpse.

Master Jiu Xie was quite frightened and quickly controlled the corpse to get away.

At the same time, Li Tianyi also regained his senses, "Your opponent is me!"

He unleashed a powerful strike that seemed to hit a cow across a mountain.

The sword light vanished instantly, and when it reappeared, it was less than five meters away from Master Jiu Xie.

At such close range, it's difficult to defend, let alone dodge.

In desperation, all he could do was roll on the spot.

boom!

A deep trench was cut into the previous location.

Just as Master Jiuxie was about to get up, Li Tianyi's voice came, "Did I tell you to get up?"

Po Jun unleashed a series of sword strikes.

He felt incredibly frustrated, but couldn't find a suitable opportunity to get up, so he could only keep rolling around.

The giant corpse, no longer controlled by the corpse-driving bell, had long since stopped moving.

Yun Zhongzi deliberately moved in this direction.

As the distance closed, he unleashed several sword beams in succession.

The body was chopped up and fell to the ground.

The surroundings were filled with a nauseating stench of blood.

"you?"

The four guardians were furious, but dared not let their anger control them, and attacked with all their might.

Among the three blades of light, each tens of meters long, was a black energy blast two meters thick.

Wherever it passed, the void swayed continuously.

"What a bizarre power."

Yun Zhongzi's expression was solemn as he maximized the power he could muster.

A yin-yang symbol flashed across the sky.

The three blades vanished without a trace the moment they touched it.

The final burst of black energy, however, was unstoppable, accelerating its attack.

Whoosh!

Yun Zhongzi disappeared from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already hundreds of meters away.

"Don't even think about escaping."

The four guardians rushed out simultaneously, unleashing their full power.

Palm shadows filled the sky!

The force of his punches was like a rainbow!

Sword intent fills the sky!

The person in the very center, however, did not make a move for a long time.

As the distance closed, he unleashed two powerful punches, each over three meters thick, which shot forward at lightning speed.

Snap!

The void cracked open, overflowing with turbulent currents.

Yun Zhongzi was extremely uncertain. He brandished his longsword with his right hand and used Tai Chi with his left.

With the double Tai Chi reinforcement, it barely managed to block one attack.

The other path was weakened by the aftershocks and turbulence.

Even so, there is no chance of survival if hit.

"Should we use a secret technique?"

Just as he was hesitating, a flying sword blocked the force of his punch.

"Thank you, Uncle-Master." Yun Zhongzi's heart, which had been hanging in suspense, was finally at ease.

Suddenly, a voice echoed in my mind: "I cannot intervene too much; you will have to rely on yourselves."

"I understand, nephew."

The exchange happened very quickly; before the four guardians could even react, the terrifying pressure had completely vanished.

"Boss, was it that guy from Wudang who made a move just now?" the fat man asked, his face filled with fear.

“Probably.” A deep fear flashed in the leader’s eyes. “A strongman like him wouldn’t dare to make a move easily. There’s no need to be afraid of him.”

"Alright, let's engage. Let's kill Yun Zhongzi first."

The three nodded and released their full aura.

The four energies merged together, forming an even more malevolent aura.

The sound of ghostly wails echoed throughout the heavens and earth, chilling all who heard it.

Li Tianyi was the most deeply affected, and the evil energy within his dantian was stirring, about to break free of its restraints.

"You want to compete in evil?" A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes. "Today I'll show you what true evil really is."

With a roar, he released the restriction.

An aura several times more malevolent than the Four Guardians shot straight into the sky.

The evil energy shattered, and the four people vomited blood one after another.

"You, who are you?"

Just as I was about to answer, a muffled clap of thunder came from the horizon, and dark clouds rapidly gathered.

"This is bad, we've alerted that person." Yun Zhongzi frowned, gazing at the sky.

Suddenly, a sword's edge flashed, and the sky instantly cleared.

"You old monster dare to interfere in matters between the younger generation? We will no longer abide by our agreement." A majestic and domineering voice.

"You're allowed to help the younger generation, but I can't?" His anger was laced with terrifying pressure. "Don't try to use the agreement to pressure me. If you dare to intervene again, even the Heavenly King himself can't protect them."

"You want to start a war?"

Whether or not war breaks out is up to you, not me.

Neither of them spoke again.

After a long silence, they said at the same time, "No interference!"

The oppressive aura dissipated, and the surroundings returned to normal.

Li Tianyi reacted the fastest and went straight for Master Jiu Xie.

He was too close to the center of the oppressive aura to adjust, and could only keep dodging.

"Let's see how you dodge this!"

Po Jun danced faster and faster, leaving less and less room to dodge.

Since becoming famous, Master Jiuxie had never been so humiliated, and his hatred grew deeper and deeper.

His lips twitched, and he made an important decision.

Buzz!

The Styx River appeared, blocking a blade's edge.

The corpse-driving bell also floated in the air.

"Corpses that have perished within a ten-mile radius, heed my call and rise again!"

A drop of essence blood merged into the River Styx.

Its color kept changing, eventually settling on yellow.

Clang, clang...

The bell for transporting corpses trembled, sprinkling water from the River Styx.

It instantly regained its vitality upon contact with its remains.

Li Tianyi's lips twitched. "Only death can bring peace to the world for an evil person like you."

An evil aura reappeared, and the splashing Styx water was shaken apart.

"you?"

Master Jiu Xie was completely out of his mind. This power had clearly reached the level of the Ancestor, so why didn't he come out to stop it?

A terrifying pressure descended.

A blurry figure passed through his body.

"Pfft!"

A look of resentment flashed in the eyes of the Nine Evils Master before he fell straight down.

"This piece of trash doesn't deserve to be called a treasure."

With a single grab, the corpse-driving bell landed in his palm; with a squeeze, it shattered instantly.

"let me!"

A look of doubt flashed in Yun Zhongzi's eyes, but he had no chance to ask, so he could only step back.

The four guardians trembled with fear when they saw him approaching.

The oppressive aura was overwhelming, and the group struggled to even kneel, let alone stand upright.

"die!"

A burst of energy shot out, and the heads of the three people exploded.

Although the strongest person is temporarily unharmed, he has multiple bone fractures all over his body, and his tendons are breaking rapidly.

Even if they survive, they will be no different from useless people.

Li Tianyi, however, had no intention of letting him go. He rushed over, snapped his neck, and then lifted the corpse, slamming it heavily onto his right knee.

After killing them, the murderous intent in his heart intensified.

"Have everyone evacuate; I'll go alone."

His eyes were bloodshot, and his whole body exuded a terrifying killing intent that sent chills down one's spine.

Yun Zhongzi glanced at it, then felt all his strength drain away. He managed to say with difficulty, "Alright, let's retreat!"

Upon receiving the leader's order, everyone immediately retreated to the outermost perimeter of the Gu Sect and set up a temporary defensive point.

Li Tianyi nodded in satisfaction, a smile growing wider on his lips, and pointed to the deepest part, "Old monster, you'd better not meddle in other people's business. If you dare to come out, I will kill you."

The sound carried far, and an old man shrouded in black mist was furious.
