The moment the withered old man opened his eyes.
"Buzz!"
A terrifying storm suddenly swept across the land.
The gaunt old man's gaze fell upon everything within his sight.
"Snap!"
"Snap!"
"Snap!"
"......"
The void shattered inch by inch.
You need to know.
This world was created by Xuan Qingzi.
Its world level had reached the level of a great thousand worlds, yet it still couldn't withstand the gaze of this withered old man.
This shows just how terrifying the withered old man's strength had become.
And at that very moment.
"Buzz!"
The withered old man's gaze fell on Dao Lao Er, Yang Mei, and the other masters of the era.
"not good!"
The Epoch Lords instinctively sensed the impending life-or-death crisis and urged the Great Dao Laws to flow, which was the only way they were able to block the attack.
In contrast.
Ling Yun, Xuan Kongzi, and Xuan Mingzi performed much better.
Although they could feel the overwhelming pressure, they were still able to meet the gaze of the withered old man.
However.
The expressions on the faces of all the Era Lords, as well as Ling Yun, Xuan Kongzi, and Xuan Mingzi, were extremely unpleasant.
In their eyes.
Twelve stars suddenly appeared between the eyebrows of the gaunt old man.
Although the twelfth star flickered on and off, as if it would go out at any moment.
But for now...
This gaunt old man is a being who possesses twelve stars and is above the Transcendent Realm.
"Master!"
Unlike Lingyun.
Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Mingzi sensed the familiar aura and couldn't help but call out softly.
The withered old man's body originally belonged to their master.
now.
The withered old man's aura was so similar to their master's...
Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Mingzi felt a moment of disorientation, as if they had returned to the wonderful days when they cultivated under their master's protection...
And at that very moment.
The gaunt old man's gaze fell on Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Mingzi, and he said in a gentle voice.
"It's been so many years."
"how?"
"Don't you recognize your teacher?"
"Why aren't you kneeling down?"
These words were spoken.
Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Mingzi shuddered, their eyes filled with struggle.
They clearly did not know that the person in front of them was not their master, yet they were still disturbed by a single sentence.
"Oh!"
A hint of mockery flashed in the withered old man's dark eyes.
But when he saw Ling Yun's calm gaze, the withered old man frowned and shouted coldly.
"Xuan Lingzi!"
"Why don't you kneel?"
"Do you intend to betray your master and ancestors?"
As they were talking.
The twelve stars between the brows of the gaunt old man shone brightly.
A power beyond the Transcendent Realm crashed down on Ling Yun, attempting to crush him into the dust.
Now, the Daoist hearts of Xuan Kongzi and Xuan Mingzi are in great turmoil.
As long as we can subdue Lingyun again.
This battle will be won without a fight!
The gaunt old man was clearly playing a clever game.
However.
His wishful thinking ultimately failed...
......
Faced with the questioning of the withered old man.
Ling Yun was not afraid at all; instead, he revealed a faint hint of mockery and said sarcastically.
"Regardless of whether I am Xuan Lingzi or not."
Even if I really am.
"You, a newly transformed wandering ghost, do you think you're worthy of my kneeling before you?"
Are you worthy?
These words were spoken.
The withered old man's eyes gleamed with a dark light as he spoke in a cold voice.
"This being was resurrected by Xuan Qingzi using countless living beings, including himself, as nourishment. How could I possibly be some wandering ghost?"
"Are you going to betray Senior Brother Xuan Qingzi's countless years of hard work?"
"Xuan Lingzi!"
"If you kneel down now, I can forgive your previous rudeness!"
"But if you disagree, then don't blame your master for expelling me from the sect!"
"......"
In conclusion.
The gaunt old man's voice was now fierce, his dark eyes fixed on Ling Yun, ready to devour him.
In the eyes of the withered old man.
With a combination of kindness and severity, Ling Yun will surely submit to him.
However.
To the emaciated old man's surprise...
Ling Yun not only did not yield, but the mockery on his face became even more intense as he sneered.
"You've been tricked!"
Were we fooled?
Upon hearing Ling Yun's words, the withered old man's heart skipped a beat, and a very bad premonition arose in his mind.
But before he could think any further,
Ling Yun's mocking voice rang in his ears again...
"You've been talking a lot of nonsense to me."
"Isn't it just about winning without fighting?"
"But this also proves..."
"You lack the confidence to suppress us!"
Or perhaps...
Speaking of which...
Ling Yun's voice suddenly rose, and he roared.
"Or you might not be able to make a move at all!"
"You've been bluffing from beginning to end!"
"You're just a pretty face!"
Ling Yun's voice was like thunder, deafening and resounding.
These words were spoken.
The gaunt old man's face turned extremely pale.
Just as Ling Yun said.
Because of insufficient nutrients.
Although he successfully possessed Master Xuanqingzi's physical body, he was unable to use its power.
At this moment, he was truly unable to take action, let alone suppress Ling Yun and the others on the spot.
This is why the gaunt old man spoke so much.
If he truly had the power to easily kill Ling Yun and the others, why would he need to go through so much trouble?
