Bu Jingyun kept a cold face, gently wiping the black blood from the corner of his mouth with his left hand, his expression indifferent.
Nie Feng smiled sheepishly and continued, "Generals, King Zhou is now tyrannical. We are here on the orders of our master to assist King Le, Boyi Kao, in his great cause of overthrowing King Zhou, eliminating the tyrant, and restoring peace to the world."
Zhao Yun smiled slightly and asked, "May I ask what your esteemed master is?"
Nie Feng said, "My master, Nian Di Tian Zun Tian Feng, is the seventh disciple of Dao Zun," his expression filled with pride.
Zhao Yun frowned slightly, lowered his head and fell into deep thought. After a long while, he slowly said, "Disciples of the Sage are truly powerful. Although we do not know our master's name, he ordered us to assist King Zhou in unifying the world. Fellow Daoist Feng, please forgive us." As he spoke, his figure flashed, and the Soul-Destroying Divine Spear in his hand rippled outwards in circles of black waves, instantly enveloping Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun.
Seeing Zhao Yun make another move, and with themselves and their senior brother Yun severely injured and no match for him, Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun roared in desperation, "Senior sister, eighth junior brother, make a move quickly!" With that, they grabbed Bu Jingyun with their left hand and transformed into a gust of wind, fleeing thousands of feet away, narrowly avoiding the layers of black ripples.
Zhao Yun looked at Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, who were tens of thousands of feet away, and sighed deeply. He said to himself, "What a pity, fellow Daoists, you did not get to taste my Soul-Destroying and Spirit-Scattering Divine Light. Otherwise, I would have made sure you had an unforgettable experience." He shook his head as he spoke, looking regretful.
When Nie Feng first heard of "Soul-Destroying and Spirit-Scattering Divine Light," he asked in confusion, "General Zhao, what is 'Soul-Destroying and Spirit-Scattering Divine Light'?"
Zhao Yun chuckled and readily replied, "The Soul-Destroying and Spirit-Scattering Divine Light, as the name suggests, destroys the primordial spirit. Regardless of whether one is a Celestial Immortal, a Golden Immortal, or a Great Luo Golden Immortal, without the protection of a supreme treasure, their primordial spirit will dissipate upon contact, and their soul will return to the Nine Netherworlds. However, fellow Daoists, rest assured, Heaven cherishes life, and we will not harm the lives of fellow Daoists Feng and Yun without good reason."
Upon hearing this, Nie Feng was terrified, thinking to himself: What a close call.
Two beams of light streaked across the sky and struck Nie Feng's side. After the light dissipated, two figures appeared: one was a stunningly beautiful woman, and the other was a handsome young man. They were none other than Zhu Yuyan, Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun's senior sister, and Duan Lang, their eighth junior brother.
Zhao Yun stared intently at the stunningly beautiful woman, his expression solemn. Black divine light flowed within the Soul-Destroying Divine Spear in his hand as he coldly asked, "May I ask who this fairy is?"
Zhu Yuyan smiled charmingly, her jade lips parted slightly, and she said calmly, "General Zhao, I am the third disciple of Nian Di Tianzun, named Zhu Yuyan." As she spoke, she gently waved her slender hand and whispered, "Heavenly Demon Realm of the Heavenly Demon." Instantly, the wind within a hundred feet became still, the clouds dispersed, and the entire space distorted. Lu Bu and Zhao Yun, both at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal level, felt their magical power vanish in an instant, their primordial spirits squeezed into their crown chakra by the space, and all their past supernatural powers disappeared.
A cold glint flashed in Zhu Yuyan's beautiful brows. She parted her pearly teeth slightly and slowly said, "Generals Lü Bu and Zhao Yun, I observe that both of you are at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. It would be a great pity for such young talents to perish. Why not join my teachers' ranks, receive the protection of the sages, and one day, when the opportunity arises, you can attain the Quasi-Saint status and roam freely between heaven and earth?" As she spoke, she suddenly noticed the intense murderous intent and hatred in Lü Bu and Zhao Yun's eyes. Her brows furrowed slightly, and she said calmly, "Very well, since you two generals are so ignorant of fate and aid the wicked, then I will send you off on your way." With that, a foot-long black light emanated from her slender jade fingers and pointed towards Lü Bu's brow. If this struck, even with Lü Bu's Nine Revolutions Profound Technique's extraordinary power, he would likely be reduced to ashes.
Seeing a dark, mysterious light suddenly emerge from Zhu Yuyan's jade finger and point towards Lü Bu's brow, Nie Feng immediately shouted, "Third Senior Sister, stop! Spare their lives!" However, no matter how much Nie Feng shouted, Zhu Yuyan's jade finger continued its momentum, pointing straight at Lü Bu's brow.
[5 The End of the Primordial Era: The Consecration of Gods]
152 Chapters 132 The Wrath of Zhuge Liang: The Holy Decree
After Zhao Yun and Lü Bu defeated Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun, in a critical moment, Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun's third senior sister, Zhu Yuyan, and Duan Lang appeared. Under Zhu Yuyan's Heavenly Demonic power, Zhao Yun and Lü Bu's cultivation and magic were suppressed. When their attempts to persuade them to surrender failed, Zhu Yuyan turned on them and struck Lü Bu's forehead with her delicate hand, intending to kill them both.
Zhao Yun looked coldly at Zhu Yuyan and said slowly, "Fairy Yuyan, my senior brother Lü Bu and I will temporarily entrust our 100,000 warriors here. Three days later, my brother and I will surely set foot on the Huai River again and fight you all for supremacy." As he spoke, he chanted an incantation, and a burst of purple light overflowed from Zhao Yun's body, instantly enveloping him and transforming into a beam of purple light that ignored Zhu Yuyan and vanished into the sky as a dazzling purple dot.
Seeing Zhao Yun disappear into the light, Lü Bu laughed heartily and transformed into a streak of purple light, vanishing into the western horizon.
Zhu Yuyan stared intently at the two purple streaks of light streaking across the sky, her delicate brows furrowed. After a long while, she sighed and muttered, "They are truly powerful. I wonder whose disciple they are. Such amazing light-escaping techniques."
Nie Feng looked at Zhu Yuyan indifferently and said coldly, "Third Senior Sister, you are wrong. You should not have tried to take the lives of fellow Daoists Zhao Yun and Bu Jingyun." After saying that, he sighed and picked up Bu Jingyun, turning into afterimages and disappearing into the vast land.
Zhu Yuyan looked sadly at Nie Feng as he left, and murmured, "Was I wrong?"
Chaoge, Shouxian Palace.
Suddenly, two purple lights flashed across the main hall, and two figures fell to the ground. They were Zhao Yun and Lü Bu, who had returned by escaping the light.
Seeing Zhao Yun and Lü Bu collapsed on the ground, Zhuge Liang flashed to their side. Looking at their weakened state, he reached into his robes with his left hand and took out two elixirs emitting a faint blue light. He fed them to the two men. After a while, Zhao Yun and Lü Bu slowly awoke. Looking at Zhuge Liang before them, they smiled sadly and said, "Senior Brother, I have failed in my mission. The Huai River region has fallen."
