Behind Wu Wei and his two companions, as well as behind Yi Dao Hou and his group who were flying towards them, a layer of black mist swirled at the deepest part of their terrifying aura.
Their royal staircase was being built at breakneck speed, while the black mist was growing deeper and deeper, completely enveloping their bodies and spreading towards their souls.
Shen Qian stood there, stunned, unsure of what to say.
This is the real reason why Wu Wei, Tian Jianke, and others were able to grasp the secrets of King Wu in such a short time.
They had been stuck in this state for many years, just like Han Chi, lacking only that moment of enlightenment.
Originally, due to the blockade imposed by the Ninth Prince, they would never have been able to find that opportunity in their entire lives, but Han Chi set an example for them.
The so-called "opportunity" was actually hidden in the black fog that polluted the entire Earth's sky, behind those opened "doors".
It contains the "ultimate" part that Earth's martial arts lacked, and it is also the scenery on the other side of that staircase in the depths of the starry sky that was obscured when Wang Hou Tian was sealed.
No, it should be that Wu Wei, who saw the black mist at the same time as Han Chi's breakthrough, sensed something at that moment.
But is it really necessary to go this far?
Looking at his fourth senior brother and the others who came with smiles, Shen Qian's gaze became somewhat blurred.
Because he knew all too well what their choice meant.
The Way of Heaven has its flaws, but as long as one cannot break the secrets of King Wu, one can at least protect oneself. But once one takes that step, there is no turning back.
The obstacles set up by the Nine Kings are a form of protection, but once these obstacles are broken, it is equivalent to facing the corrupted "Heavenly Way" directly, and in the end, one will either be assimilated or fall into madness.
"Clear the way for the sinking!"
In the instant that Shen Qian was stunned, Yi Dao Hou and the others had already arrived. Wu Wei shouted through his voice, "Shen Qian, don't stand there! If you don't leave, our sacrifice today will be meaningless!"
Shen Qian's body jolted awake, his heart filled with a mix of emotions.
Wu Wei's words indicate that he had roughly guessed everything, but he still did it anyway.
"Sink forward, let's go!"
At this moment, Yi Dao Hou and the other four had already engaged in battle with many of the Wu Clan kings and marquises. Qing Cheng Hou flashed and appeared near Shen Qian. Then, with a flick of his long sword, he directly swept three nearby Wu Clan kings and marquises into his dimensional battlefield, leaving Shen Qian with space to retreat.
Chen Qian took a deep breath, knowing he could no longer hesitate. He stopped the operation of the "Ten Directions Creation Body". As the powerful forces receded like a tide, extreme weakness and bone-deep pain overwhelmed him.
If they didn't want to die here, Shen Qian was already too weak to fight anymore. If Wu Wei and the others had arrived even a moment later, Shen Qian's body would have completely collapsed.
Even now, his body was on the verge of collapse, most of his meridians were damaged, and his once translucent internal organs were dull and severely damaged.
"Leave the sinking behind!"
Just then, the illusory figure of the Witch Emperor, wearing a celestial crown and a cloak of illusion, suddenly spoke coldly and gave orders to all the powerful members of the Witch Clan.
In a daze, it seemed that through his eyelash-less eyes, Shen Qian saw another pair of eyes that were even larger and colder.
In the time it takes to breathe, Shen Qian felt a stinging pain in his eyes. His usually invincible "Eye of Truth" was showing signs of burning.
It's her!
A sense of horror washed over Shen Qian, confirming his previous suspicions.
As the only remaining Great Emperor, the Witch Emperor had long been deeply corrupted by her, just like the Demon King. However, the Demon King had hidden in a space that the Heavenly Dao could not sense, thus suppressing the pollution within his body.
However, the resurrected Witch King was no longer his complete self.
Although the group of powerful members of the Witch Clan were puzzled as to why the Witch Emperor valued Shen Qian so much, even more than the group of human powerhouses who were counterattacking and posed a greater threat at this moment, they still unconditionally carried out the Witch Emperor's orders.
Boom! Boom!
One dimensional battlefield after another shattered, and the witch clan kings and nobles who forcibly broke free from them came to surround and kill Shen Qian.
In addition, the kings and nobles who were seriously injured before the sinking have now begun to return to the battlefield one after another, having activated some secret magic of the witch clan.
Even though the powerful members of the Witch Clan suffered heavy casualties in the attack before the sinking, they still held an absolute numerical advantage.
At this moment, the number of red-robed kings and nobles of the Wu tribe surrounding Shenqian had reached nine.
Only the Great Elder of the Ganwu Clan and the Queen of the Wu Clan were held tightly by Wu Wei and the other two, and were temporarily unable to break free.
"Walk!"
In a brief exchange of thoughts, Yi Dao Hou and the other four had already reached a tacit understanding. Yi Dao Hou, Qing Cheng Hou, and Dong Chuan Hou led the way, and with a slash of their weapons, they created a massive torrent of metal, blocking the pursuing Wu Clan kings and marquises.
As for Marquis Jinta and Lord Wu, they stood guard on either side of Shen Qian, leading him to retreat to a distance.
Although the Witch Clan King had a numerical advantage, the three, including Yi Dao Hou, had already disregarded life and death and immediately unleashed the power of the stars within their bodies. The Witch Clan King was simply unable to break through their blockade.
Just then, the illusory figure of the Witch Emperor suddenly let out a cold snort. His figure became much more solid, and an overwhelming pressure that dominated the entire battlefield made everyone, friend or foe, feel a little breathless.
"Pierced through the heart!"
The strange language of the witch tribe was uttered from the witch king's mouth, but it seemed to resonate deep within everyone's soul, automatically transforming into a shrill howl that everyone could understand.
puff!
