After seeing the golden shield, Akade seemed to be deep in thought, and a smile appeared on his face after a moment.
"Zhuge Bai has come."
Upon hearing this, Xingci was taken aback at first, but after a moment she suddenly realized and nodded, saying, "That guy is here, so we really might win today."
As soon as Xingci finished speaking, the shield burst forth with a blinding golden light. Even An Cheng couldn't withstand it, covering his eyes and retreating rapidly.
The shield underwent a dramatic transformation, eventually becoming a small golden hammer. A figure also rapidly approached from afar, appearing in the void in the blink of an eye.
This person was dressed in simple linen clothes, with an ordinary face and a body that was neither fat nor thin, and he looked unremarkable.
Yet this very person caused many people in the human temple to kneel down.
Even Shen Wuyan, who was channeling immortal power into Ye Chen to suppress the dark aura within him, adjusted his posture and knelt down.
This seemingly ordinary man is none other than Zhuge Bai, the temple master of the human race, a powerful expert in the late stage of the Immortal King realm.
After thousands of years of slumber and cultivation, only he himself knows whether he is now in the late stage of Immortal King or at the peak of Immortal King.
An Cheng looked at Zhuge Bai and said coldly, "Are you going to get involved too?"
Zhuge Bai closed his eyes slightly, briefly sensed the situation on the grassland, and then slowly said, "This time when I come out of seclusion, I will not go into seclusion again."
"I will go directly to the Immortal Realm. Before that, there are some troubles that definitely need to be resolved."
"Haha, that depends on whether you have the ability!"
An Cheng manipulated the phantom to attack Zhuge Bai. The phantom had already condensed into a giant fist, surrounded by dark energy.
One strike would be enough to obliterate a powerful cultivator at the early stage of the Immortal King realm.
Akade and Hoshino immediately spoke up to remind him after seeing this.
"careful!"
Zhuge Bai waved to the two of them, looked up at the phantom, and the golden hammer beside him immediately grew larger, eventually becoming a huge hammer that smashed towards the phantom's giant fist.
A loud bang.
The giant hammer retreated a distance, and the phantom also retreated a distance.
His face darkened, shifting unpredictably. He stared intently at Zhuge Bai, for just now, his phantom giant fist had gained no advantage whatsoever.
He has already used every means at his disposal.
Suddenly, something occurred to him, and he looked at Zhuge Bai, his eyes widening abruptly, "You, you've broken through to the peak of the Immortal King realm?"
Zhuge Bai nodded and smiled at An Cheng, "Yes."
The next moment.
He then took his giant hammer and began the first round of combat with An Cheng. Chi Dian and Xing Ci, who were standing to the side, also rushed forward after slightly adjusting their injuries.
I thought I would face defeat today, but Zhuge Bai broke through directly.
They must seize the opportunity and take down An Cheng in one fell swoop to prevent this guy from causing damage to the Zhongtian Star Region.
And so, the battle in the void began again, just like before, with the three temple masters of the Star Temple, the Crimson Flame Temple, and the Human Temple fighting against the temple master of the Dark Temple.
Now, it is the ancestor of the three great temples who is dealing with the ancestor of the Dark Temple.
This confrontation left many below both amused and exasperated. It was practically a repetitive contest between the highest combat strength, and these weaker elders and disciples had absolutely no chance of participating.
A single burst of energy could potentially kill them, leaving them without a complete corpse.
A few minutes later.
A loud noise rang out in the void, and when everyone looked up, they couldn't help but gasp.
The illusory image of Ancestor An was already fragmented and looked like it would soon disappear.
With a bang.
A massive golden hammer struck the phantom, and the phantom, which was about to disappear, vanished in an instant.
At the same time, An Cheng, who had been struck, spat out a mouthful of blood and retreated frantically. Even he could not accept that level of attack.
He never dreamed that Zhuge Bai was actually at the peak of the Immortal King realm!
Even if the latter was a late-stage Immortal King, he would have many ways to deal with him, but the other party was a peak expert, so he was truly powerless today.
Zhuge Bai looked at An Cheng, whose aura was weak and who had fallen into the side effects of the banned drug, and sneered. He was about to activate the golden giant hammer.
A majestic voice rang out.
“Several Celestial Kings, your actions violate the rules of the mortal realm.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a gigantic face appeared in the sky. Many people were shocked when they saw it, because the face was simply too big.
It instilled a sense of fear in people. Zhuge Bai looked at the huge face above and sighed deeply.
It seems there's no escaping it today; the will of Heaven has finally come out.
"Gentlemen, don't say you'll stay in seclusion and not make a move after this. You've taken advantage of an opening this time, and you must ascend to the Immortal Realm."
"Otherwise, I will intervene by force using the rules."
Shen Wuyan and the others' expressions changed drastically. Their ancestor had only just appeared, and now he was about to leave the mortal realm?
Zhuge Bai remained relatively calm about this. He chatted with Chi Dian and Xing Ci beside him for a few minutes and agreed with the Heavenly Dao's approach. If they continued to stay in the mortal realm, the Heavenly Dao was afraid that they would take action again and disrupt the order.
"Where are the people from the Human Race Temple?" Zhuge Bai asked, looking down.
As soon as he finished speaking, the god silently led the way, and all the people in the human temples on the grassland stood up.
"Where are the people from the Star Temple?" Xingci asked, looking down.
Upon hearing this, Chen Jian stood up, and everyone from the Star Temple on the grassland also stood up.
"Where are the people from the Crimson Flame Temple?" Chi Dian asked downwards at the end.
Gu Teng respectfully rose and stood with the elders and disciples of the Crimson Flame Temple.
The temple masters, elders, and disciples of the three great temples all stood up and looked respectfully at the three patriarchs in the void.
Their faces were filled with pride and satisfaction. Their ancestor had defeated that drug-addicted, despicable ancestor of the Dark Temple, which made them extremely excited.
Looking at the vast crowd below, Zhuge Bai, as their representative, spoke slowly.
"Today, the three of us will be flying to the Immortal Realm. There is nothing left for us to cherish in the Temple. As members of the Temple, you must not disgrace its name in the future."
"I will heed the teachings of our ancestor!"
All the people from the three temples knelt on one knee.
Zhuge Bai wanted to say something more, but after catching a glimpse of the Heavenly Dao's impatient expression, he prepared to open the gate to the Immortal Realm and leave.
Just as he made his move, he seemed to realize something and glanced down at Ye Chen, whose face still had some dark aura.
With a wave of his hand, a golden light covered Ye Chen's entire body.
The next moment, wisps of black energy rose continuously from the latter's body and finally disappeared.
In just a few breaths, the dark aura planted in Ye Chen's body by the Dark Temple Ancestor was completely expelled!
Having done all this, Zhuge Bai opened the spatial rift in front of him, revealing a stone staircase. By climbing the staircase, they could smoothly reach the Immortal Realm.
