"Jie——"
A cry of an eagle pierced the sky.
Above the vast, cloud-covered peaks, an eagle spreads its wings and soars.
Shen Zhao slowly woke up, sat up, shook his head, took a deep breath, and then stood up, clutching his chest, to look around at his surroundings.
Looking up, Shen Zhao realized that he was standing on the edge of a cliff, with another cliff on the other side, separated by a long and narrow chasm, forming a narrow chasm that separated them.
Looking down tentatively, the boundless sea of clouds obscured the view below. Based on preliminary calculations, the mountain peak was at least a thousand feet above the ground.
"I was careless!"
Shen Zhao recalled the Heaven-Seizing Creation Palm technique he had used before being sucked into the black hole and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
This palm technique possesses the power to seize the essence of heaven and earth, capable of destroying mountains and splitting seas, and can even trigger fluctuations in the laws of heaven and earth.
However, simply replacing spiritual energy with true qi ultimately leads to uncontrollable phenomena, and the power is far less than expected.
But considering that he was able to suppress Mu Qiuyao in the wave of the attack without affecting his experience of showing off, Shen Zhao felt that it was all worth it.
However, the most urgent task is to find a way to leave this godforsaken place and go back to reunite with Ding Bu'er and the others as soon as possible.
In fact, Shen Zhao had anticipated this situation, so he ordered Su Yunying to deliver the invitation he had received from Chu Sheng to Yaochi Holy Land in advance, just in case.
In this way, even if something happens to him, with Jiang Qingluan protecting him, these friends will not be subjected to joint suppression by the Heavenly Annihilation Holy Land and the Xuantian Immortal Dynasty.
It can be said that the moment Shen Zhao decided to kill Lü Baichuan and turn against the Tianjue Holy Land, he had already taken into account all possible scenarios and made a comprehensive plan.
This also includes conflicts with Mu Qiuyao.
The only variable is whether the Jade Pool Holy Land is willing to intervene.
Putting aside his thoughts, Shen Zhao calmed himself down and decided to find a way out after his injuries had healed.
Just as he entered a meditative state and began circulating his spiritual energy to repair his damaged meridians, a faint sound of footsteps rang in his ears.
Who is it?
He suddenly opened his eyes and saw Mu Qiuyao, with her full head of silver hair, staring at him with cold, beautiful eyes across the narrow passage.
At this moment, Mu Qiuyao's black robe was torn in many places, and her slender legs and half of her fragrant shoulders could be vaguely seen.
Her delicate face was deathly pale, and her cherry-like lips were bloodless from the severe injuries, which instead gave her a sickly beauty that aroused a strong desire to conquer her.
Their eyes met, and Mu Qiuyao clenched her jade-like hands.
"Such powerful palm strike! It actually managed to injure me to this extent. Was Shen Zhao this powerful from the very beginning? Just how terrifying was his strength at his peak?"
Mu Qiuyao was very unwilling.
She was also reborn from her previous life, and had heard many rumors about Shen Zhao in the Immortal Martial Continent.
To be honest, Mu Qiuyao didn't care about Shen Zhao at first. Even when Shen Zhao broke through Jiuyou, she thought it was just an accident and a fluke.
However, when she learned that Empress Yintian had reached the Great Emperor realm in less than twenty years, Mu Qiuyao could no longer remain calm.
After extensive investigation, it was found that Yu Xiyan's ability to reach the Emperor Realm in such a short time was certainly due to her exceptional talent, but it was also largely due to Shen Zhao's silent and dedicated efforts behind the scenes.
Having reached the Emperor Realm in a hundred years, he was already an unsurpassable legend in the Immortal Martial Continent. Now, however, he has been completely outclassed by others. How could he tolerate this?
When Mu Qiuyao learned that the Yintian Dynasty had expanded its territory to one-third of the entire continent, she decided to meet with Shen Zhao.
Unfortunately, just before she was about to have a final showdown with Shen Zhao, news of his death arrived.
For a moment, Mu Qiuyao was unable to accept this result. She personally went to the top of the Nine Abyss to investigate. Only after confirming Shen Zhao's death did she sigh with regret.
After being reborn, one of Mu Qiuyao's greatest wishes is to be able to fight Shen Zhao once.
However, Shen Zhao was surprisingly powerful.
That palm strike, which seized the very essence of heaven and earth, contained the power of Daoist principles that nearly destroyed his Tai Xuan Dao Body, completely exceeding his expectations.
Now, his injuries are severe, his cultivation has been automatically sealed, and he is no different from an ordinary person. He urgently needs to recover from his injuries.
However, without the aura of blazing flames or pure yang energy, her recovery from her injuries will be extremely slow.
The two remained silent, staring at each other through a narrow slit in the air.
After a long while, Shen Zhao spoke first: "What? You've been watching me for so long, you want another fight?"
Mu Qiuyao snorted coldly: "You've been hit by my Bright Jade Profound Yellow Technique and you're still alive? Heaven must be blind!"
Shen Zhao retorted sarcastically, "It's a miracle that you weren't killed by that palm strike!"
"To seize the creation of heaven and earth is nothing more than this."
"The Mingyu Xuanhuang Technique is garbage and useless."
"Arrogance cannot hide your insecurity."
Pride cannot change your fate.
The two of them have figured out how to play the verbal sparring game: since trash talk doesn't cost money, they can just keep arguing.
Seeing that Mu Qiuyao was hesitant to cross the chasm, Shen Zhao immediately realized that her injuries were no less severe than his own, so he stopped paying attention to her and closed his eyes to treat his injuries.
Mu Qiuyao stomped her feet in anger, realizing that Shen Zhao was no longer paying attention to her, so she could only calm down and try to heal her wounds.
However, Mu Qiuyao, whose powers were completely sealed, could only sit there and recover her strength without any other benefit.
A day and a night passed, and Shen Zhao slowly opened his eyes after recovering about 60-70% of his injuries.
But then he saw Mu Qiuyao across from him, her arms wrapped around her chest, eyes closed, asleep against a rock. The mountain breeze blew her clothes, causing her black robe to slip down, revealing a delicate, smooth shoulder that looked incredibly lovely.
