Xuan Tian possessed the true form of Pangu and was incredibly strong. Seeing Di Jun wielding his sword, Xuan Tian gently flicked his whisk to deflect the Demon Emperor's sword. He then used the momentum to attack Di Jun. Di Jun hurriedly summoned back the Hetu Luoshu to protect himself. Although the Hetu Luoshu blocked the whisk's attack, Di Jun was still forced to retreat by the impact.
Xuan Tian lunged forward, sweeping his whisk horizontally. Di Jun raised his sword to block, then released his benevolent corpse avatar, created by Di Jun using the body of the Golden Crow. This Golden Crow was a hundred feet tall, its body covered in solar true fire, constantly spewing solar true fire from its mouth to attack Xuan Tian. Xuan Tian slapped the Qiankun Gourd with his left hand, its mouth aimed at the solar true fire, and sucked it all in. He then swept his whisk back, blocking Di Jun's sneak attack, and condensed a ball of Dutian Divine Thunder in his left hand, striking the Golden Crow. This Dutian Divine Thunder was a creation power of Pangu, and only Xuan Tian could use it after Pangu's death. Even the so-called creation divine thunder of the Three Pure Ones was only created by combining their fragmented memories with the Zixiao Divine Thunder, and its power was not as great as the former. The Dutian Divine Thunder was formed by condensing Dutian evil energy and required the true body of Pangu to use it.
The Golden Crow was greatly alarmed and dared not take the attack head-on. Just as it was about to dodge, it saw Xuan Tian unleash a beam of Xuan Yuan spiritual light that blocked its path. This Xuan Yuan spiritual light was a unique immortal light from Xuan Tian's own cultivation technique, much like the Three Pure Ones of later generations, the Taiqing Immortal Light, Yuqing Immortal Light, and Shangqing Immortal Light of Buddhism, and the Nirvana Buddha Light—all immortal lights unique to their own cultivation techniques. This Xuan Yuan spiritual light was not particularly frightening; the Golden Crow easily shattered it with a mouthful of Solar True Fire. Xuan Tian had intended to obstruct the Golden Crow, and his goal had been achieved. After breaking through the spiritual light, the Golden Crow was struck by the arriving Dutian Divine Thunder, unable to evade it. Xuan Tian also entangled Di Jun, preventing him from coming to its aid. Just as the thunder was about to strike the Golden Crow, a large bell suddenly appeared on its body, carrying a chaotic aura. It was the Chaos Bell, which Tai Tian had used to save Di Jun when he saw that Di Jun was no match for him.
"Taiyi, you've made your move too. Come down here with me. I want to see what you Heavenly Emperors and Eastern Emperors are capable of." Xuantian naturally knew that Taiyi would make a move, and said nonchalantly.
"Xuantian, don't be so arrogant. Let us brothers deal with you." With that, Taiyi rushed out of the clouds, holding the Demon-Slaying Blade upside down, and charged towards Xuantian.
Taiyi slashed at Xuantian with his sword, and Dijun seized the opportunity to attack Xuantian as well. Xuantian deflected the Demon-Slaying Blade with a whisk, and his tranquil futon blocked Dijun's sneak attack. He then flicked out a beam of Xuan Yuan spiritual light with his left hand to block the True Fire of the Sun. Turning back, he saw Taiyi attacking again, and with another flick of his right hand, he attacked Taiyi, but it was blocked by the Chaos Bell. With a "clang," Taiyi was blasted a hundred miles away. Turning around, he unleashed a Heavenly Divine Thunder at Dijun, who quickly dodged it. However, Xuantian had already rushed towards Dijun's Golden Crow incarnation. The Golden Crow was startled and reached out a claw to grab Xuantian.
Xuan Tian then took out the Boundless Merit Measuring Ruler and struck the golden crow's outstretched claws with it. The sound of metal clashing rang out, sparks flew, and the golden crow cried out in pain, hastily retracting its claws, but it had already been struck and was bleeding. Golden blood dripped down and ignited as it fell to the ground. Xuan Tian laughed and said, "I'll teach you to be restless." He then struck the golden crow's forehead with the ruler again, but it was blocked by Tai Yi who had rushed back.
The Golden Crow, wounded, was filled with rage. With a roar, it unleashed a torrent of solar fire at Xuan Tian as if it were free. Xuan Tian, seeing this, was even more delighted and laughed loudly, "Di Jun, are you out of your mind? You know this method is useless against me, yet you still dare to use it. Are you an idiot?"
Xuan Tian patted the gourd and absorbed the true solar fire into it. The golden crow, however, seemed not to hear him and continued to spew fire. Taiyi also summoned his corpse-slaying avatar, which was also a golden crow. Together they spewed true solar fire at Xuan Tian. Xuan Tian had no choice but to keep using the gourd to collect it.
Di Jun rushed over and attacked Xuan Tian together with Tai Yi. The three fought fiercely, each using the Dharma Image of Heaven and Earth to transform into a hundred-zhang-tall figure. Xuan Tian used the Heaven and Earth Whisk in his left hand to block Di Jun's attack, and used the Measuring Ruler in his right hand to block Tai Yi's attack. For a time, the three fought fiercely.
The crowd below watched with great interest. The battle between quasi-saints was not something to be trifled with, especially the fight between these individuals, who employed a variety of attack methods.
Di Jun and Tai Yi used their Golden Crow incarnations to break free from the Qiankun Gourd, and then used the Hetu and Luoshu to entangle the Qingjing Futon. Tai Yi protected the two with the Chaos Bell, and Xuan Tian was temporarily suppressed by them. The two sides fought for a long time without a clear winner, and both were anxious.
Suddenly, Xuan Tian swept away Di Jun with his whisk, and then released a bolt of Heavenly Thunder to repel Tai Yi. A flash of light appeared on his body, revealing a person, who was Xuan Tian's benevolent corpse incarnation. It was created using the witch clan's method of creating witches. The incarnation held the Heavenly Ruler and faced Tai Yi. Xuan Tian's main body transformed into a hundred-zhang-tall figure, holding the Heavenly Whisk and attacking Di Jun.
Xuan Tian's benevolent corpse incarnation possessed the cultivation of a great sorcerer. With the addition of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl by Xuan Tian, a single strike possessed the power of thirty-six worlds. He did not use any exquisite techniques, but simply used his own formidable strength to strike Taiyi. The power of the Measuring Ruler was already superior to that of the Demon-Slaying Blade, so Taiyi dared not take it head-on and could only defend with the Chaos Bell. For a moment, Taiyi was forced to retreat, feeling extremely frustrated.
Di Jun was also in a difficult situation. Xuan Tian's whisk was both offensive and defensive, and because its attacks could be both hard and soft, when hard, Xuan Tian's strike had the force of a million jin, and when soft, it used the power of Tai Chi to redirect Di Jun's attacks back at Di Jun, making it seem as if Di Jun was drunk and attacking himself. Di Jun had no choice but to recall the Hetu Luoshu for defense, but Xuan Tian did not give him the chance. The Qiankun Gourd changed direction, absorbing the Hetu Luoshu, and the Qingjing Futon protected him, so even the True Fire of the Sun could not burn him.
Suddenly, Xuan Tian unleashed a divine thunderbolt, and taking advantage of Di Jun's momentary dodge, struck him with a whisk. Di Jun, unable to evade, could only block with his sword. The whisk struck the Demon Emperor Sword, knocking it from Di Jun's hand. Xuan Tian sheathed the whisk and, bare-handed, closed in, grabbing Di Jun's imperial robe and relentlessly punching him on the head and body. Xuan Tian possessed the true form of Pangu, though not as powerful as the real Pangu, his attack strength was still considerable. Each punch made Di Jun see stars and feel dizzy for a while.
