Yin Hong was shocked. He activated his inner energy technique, and golden light immediately emanated from his body. He tried to use the Golden Light Leap Technique to escape, but suddenly found that the surrounding space had been frozen by the killing intent emanating from the divine sword. He could not move an inch. Yin Hong smiled bitterly, staring wide-eyed at the divine sword slashing down from the sky. Was his gaze filled with fear, resentment, or regret?
Yin Hong cried out in despair, "Master, save me!" He then slowly closed his eyes, awaiting the agony of having his primordial spirit severed.
Just as Yin Hong was about to perish under Xiao Sheng's divine sword, a long laugh suddenly came from the eastern horizon. A golden auspicious cloud drifted in from the horizon, seemingly very slowly, but with a flash of golden light, it was already beside Yin Hong. With a wave of his left hand, he sent Yin Hong a thousand feet away. His wide right sleeve swiftly extended, and he said with a faint smile, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, why bother with a junior? If you wish, why don't we have a friendly spar?"
Seeing the newcomer wave his hand, Xiao Sheng's thousand-foot-long divine sword dissipated, transforming into wisps of spiritual energy that vanished into the void. Xiao Sheng's expression changed, and he said coldly, "Red?"
The newcomer chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist Xiao has a keen eye; it is indeed I, this humble Daoist."
Xiao Sheng chuckled, a foot-long azure light suddenly shooting from his eyes, and slowly said, "Why are you here instead of meditating on Mount Taihua, fellow Daoist?"
Chi Yin gave a cold laugh and said, "Fellow Daoist, you know the answer to that question. Now that we are in the midst of a great calamity, why not meditate and cultivate in seclusion on Mount Wuyi? Why get involved in this mess? What if you turn to ashes and end up on the Investiture of the Gods list? That would be disastrous."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Sheng sneered and said, "Chi, humph, you are only at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, yet you dare to talk to me about the matter of the Primordial Spirit ranking. Don't you find it laughable, fellow Daoist? Don't forget, I am a Quasi-Saint. Although I am only at the early stage of Quasi-Saint, it is enough to deal with a Great Luo Golden Immortal like you."
Chi smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, really?" Then, he turned his head and said in a deep voice, "Sixth Junior Brother, since you're here, why not show yourself?"
A mournful howl rang out, and a Taoist priest appeared gracefully from several miles away. The moment he appeared, the temperature within a ten-mile radius plummeted, a fierce wind arose, and delicate petals of blood fell from the sky. Suddenly, a foot-long blood-red light shot from the priest's eyes, his crimson pupils fixed intently on Xiao Sheng. His metallic voice boomed, "This humble Taoist is Puxian Zhenren of Baihe Cave, Jiugong Mountain. Xiao Sheng, prepare to die!" With that, he gestured with his right hand, and a long sword radiating a chilling killing intent appeared—the Wu Hook Divine Sword from Muzha's chest. Puxian Zhenren's right hand trembled, and the Wu Hook Divine Sword split in two. Puxian Zhenren then grasped the hilt with his left hand.
It turns out that the Wu Hook Divine Sword originally consisted of two swords, one male and one female. Only those who had cultivated to the level of a Great Luo Golden Immortal could summon the male sword of the Wu Hook Divine Sword. Normally, only the female sword would be displayed. When the male and female swords were combined, their power would increase a hundredfold or a thousandfold.
Master Puxian held his swords in both hands, his violent killing intent surging outwards, forcing his disciples, including Nezha and Yang Jian, to retreat several miles before escaping the range of his killing intent. Master Puxian coldly shouted, "Xiao Sheng, Muzha is my disciple!" With that, his twin swords unleashed countless sword energies that shot towards Xiao Sheng.
Chi chuckled and said, "Fellow Daoist, Yin Hong is my disciple." As he spoke, he summoned back the Yin-Yang Mirror, and a massive amount of magical power surged into it. Immediately, one, two, three... until ninety-nine eerie white lights shot out from the Yin-Yang Mirror. The ninety-nine beams of death condensed into a net of swords that directly enveloped Xiao Sheng.
Xiao Sheng roared, shouting, "Chi, Puxian, even if you two attack together, I will not fear! Today I will show you the difference between a Quasi-Saint and a Great Luo Golden Immortal!" As he spoke, a vast and boundless azure light rose from beneath his feet, enveloping his entire body—the Shangqing Immortal Light. With a flick of his right hand, a gleaming sword materialized. Xiao Sheng shook the sword, transforming it into a streak of light that charged towards Puxian Zhenren. He completely ignored the chilling white light emitted from the Yin-Yang Mirror. Of course, genuine Shangqing Immortal Light was more than enough to withstand the Yin-Yang Mirror.
Xiao Sheng and Zhan Puxian Zhenren were seen flashing and shifting in the void, their swords thrusting, slashing, sweeping, and parrying... The battle caused a fierce wind to rise within a hundred miles, mountains to collapse and the earth to crack, leaving everything desolate.
Chi looked at Xiao Sheng, who was locked in battle with his sixth junior brother, and chuckled coldly. He recited a true incantation, and a set of immortal armor emitting a faint golden light appeared on his body. The front of the armor was engraved with eight characters: Qian (south), Kun (north), Li (east), Kan (west), Dui (southeast), Zhen (northeast), Xun (southwest), and Gen (northwest). The eight characters emitted a faint golden light and were the Primordial Eight Trigrams Formation.
The back is also engraved with the eight characters, namely Zhen (East), Dui (West), Li (South), Kan (North), Qian (Northwest), Kun (Southwest), Gen (Northeast), and Xun (Southeast), which is the Later Heaven Bagua formation. This immortal armor is the Primordial Heavenly Venerable, the Primordial Spiritual Treasure Bagua Purple Ribbon Immortal Robe bestowed upon it by the leader of the Chan Sect.
The purple robe adorned with the Eight Trigrams emitted a golden defensive shield, protecting Chi's entire body. Chi laughed loudly, and a ten-foot-long beam of azure light shot out from his hand—the Jade Purity Immortal Light of the Chan Sect. Chi's figure flashed, transforming into a golden light that rushed straight towards Xiao Sheng's back.
Chi shouted, "Xiao Sheng, behold my Chan Sect!" He then fiercely struck Xiao Sheng on the back. Instantly, the Jade Purity Immortal Light clashed with the Upper Purity Immortal Light. With a deafening boom, the protective shield formed by the Upper Purity Immortal Light shattered into fragments and vanished into the void.
Seeing that Chi had broken his Shangqing Immortal Light with the Jade Purity Immortal Light of the Chan Sect, Xiao Sheng immediately realized that something was wrong. He was about to summon the Shangqing Immortal Light to protect himself again when, just as he formed the hand seal and recited the incantation, he was blocked by the twin swords of the Wu Hook Master Puxian. Puxian Master roared angrily and said, "Xiao Sheng, prepare to die!" As he spoke, the twin swords of the Wu Hook Master shot out a thick blue light and slashed towards Xiao Sheng's crown.
A blue light emanated from Xiao Sheng's body. He took a step forward and retreated a thousand feet away, dodging the earth-shattering sword strike from Master Puxian.
