Zuan was taken aback. He was using the "Gluttonous Devouring Heaven Technique," which was inspired by his battle with the Shadow Demon King in the Sealed Land.
At that time, the Shadow Demon King was also glowing and had the ability to distort time around him. Zaun used the Gluttonous Devouring Heaven Technique to distort the surrounding space to break the spell.
The divine light from the other party reminded him of his previous experiences, so he used the Gluttonous Devouring Heaven Technique, turning his entire body into a black hole, frantically absorbing the surrounding energy, and actually managed to break through the control of the divine light.
However, this is not the first time that the power of Taotie has been recognized.
Moreover, judging from their tone, it is entirely possible to infer that the Taotie they are talking about is not the same thing as the little monster they encountered in Yin Ruins.
I wonder if I'll ever get to see the real Taotie.
At this moment, Wei Yueyan had come to her senses: "Although there are some tricks to it, I still can't escape death."
At this moment, she dared not be careless. With all her might, she transformed into a black lightning bolt. Almost instantly, her sharp wings sliced the entire space into a fishing net. Thousands of slashes were completed in the blink of an eye. She believed that no one could emerge unscathed from such a dense attack.
However, her smile quickly froze on her face as she realized that the two of them seemed to have disappeared from the space.
"A spatial teleportation array?" Although she was only Erfu's subordinate, she was still a god and immediately sensed the fluctuating spatial elements.
With a cold laugh, he also entered the void.
She soon appeared in a room several miles away, but still did not see the two of them.
"It's a continuous teleportation array? Too bad you think you can shake me off like that? You're being far too naive!"
After speaking, she once again darted into the void, jumping through space more than ten times in a row, passing through various forests, cliffs, and piles of rocks along the way. In the last teleport, she found herself still in the same room where she had lost track of the other person at the beginning.
Her expression finally changed. By now, she understood that the other party had tampered with the spatial teleportation fluctuations, leaving behind a fake teleportation array. A dozen such arrays were linked together, making her repeat her efforts in vain. It was obvious that the other party had taken this opportunity to escape.
At that moment, a terrifying pressure emanated from the space, and Erfu's enormous serpentine body appeared on the ceiling, its massive head drooping down: "You seem to have lost your target."
Wei Yueyan hurriedly knelt on the ground and bowed: "Master, please forgive me. The other party is extremely cunning and seems to have a far greater understanding of space than ordinary people."
"You've disappointed me greatly." Er Fu's vertical pupils radiated a hint of coldness.
Wei Yueyan felt the hairs on her body stand on end and couldn't help but tremble.
Er Fu opened his mouth wide and got closer and closer to Wei Yueyan. Wei Yueyan trembled all over, but dared not make the slightest move to dodge.
Suddenly, Erfu's enormous head rose up, abruptly turning to look towards the direction of the main hall: "You're courting death!"
The enormous snake body vanished instantly, followed by angry roars and terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from the main hall atop the mountain.
On a tree outside the palace, Zuan and the saintess stood observing the movements in the distance.
Zuan couldn't help but sigh, "Luckily, my sister Ling'er reminded me, which is why I designed that teleportation trap. Otherwise, we might have already been caught."
His tone was full of admiration; it seemed that the other party's mastery of spatial formations had surpassed his own after some time apart.
The saintess smiled shyly: "I just thought that the other party was, after all, a legendary god, and might be able to traverse the void directly. I only designed it that way out of caution, but I didn't expect it to actually be used."
She didn't want to continue the discussion and naturally shifted the topic to the battle in the palace: "Brother Zu, those wizards seem to be stronger than we thought."
“Not bad, it’s indeed higher than I imagined.” Zu An frowned. Although he had only briefly encountered the god named Er Fu, his strength had left a deep impression on him.
Surprisingly, the Enlightened Six Witches managed to fight you to a standstill this time!
You know, the last time we went to the secret realm and dealt with the Ten Witches of Mount Ling, they didn't show such formidable strength.
"It seems that these legendary gods are not much different except for being more powerful," the saintess suddenly said.
Zuan shook his head slightly: "No, when Erfu attacked us just now, I didn't even see him make a move. It was as if he attacked as soon as he had a thought. The energy of that world seemed to be completely controlled by his will. I am actually very familiar with this feeling. When I held the power of the world, I could also do this in the cultivation world."
The saintess's expression changed slightly: "Could it be that this Erfu has grasped the beacon of the laws of this world?"
Seeing her nervousness, Zuan smiled and said, "It's not that serious. If he really controlled the beacon of the laws of this world, we wouldn't be alive. Besides, he wouldn't have harmed his own brother out of jealousy."
"As a celestial being, he should be able to control the primordial energy of heaven and earth within a certain range. Although he cannot control the primordial energy and will of the entire world like he can with the beacon of laws, this world is now many times more powerful than the cultivation world. So even if he can only use a small part of the power of this world, combined with his original formidable strength, it is still quite terrifying."
"No wonder the pressure from that opponent was so intense just now," the saintess said thoughtfully. "Did you gain anything else from your risky encounter with the gods?"
“Of course, that’s not all. These gods also have so-called divine light,” Zuan said, recalling and reasoning. “The last time I came to this world, when the Heavenly Court bestowed the Sun-Shooting Bow, the sky was filled with colorful rays of light. At the time, I thought it was just a special effect, but now it seems that these are the special abilities of the gods.”
"That Wei Yueyan was clearly not a powerful deity, so the divine light on her body was only black and white, which I had a way to break. If it were a high-level deity, with five-colored divine light falling on me, I really don't know if I could break free."
The saintess lowered her eyelids, seemingly lost in thought, and did not reply.
Zuan continued, "Besides those two points, I think the power of faith is extremely important to the gods, and may even directly affect their strength."
The saintess looked up at him with a complicated expression. This guy was indeed very capable. He could deduce so much information in just one glance.
"Let's go. It seems the Six Witches of Enlightenment have succeeded." Zaun saw that the flames of war in the direction of the palace had dissipated, leaving only Erfu there in impotent rage.
Soon he and the saintess arrived at the place agreed upon with the six enlightened witches, only to find them gathered in front of a stone platform, on which lay the corpse with the human head and snake body that they had just seen in the main hall.
The six witches chanted obscure syllables, and the magic circle beneath their feet began to glow with bursts of blue light. The blue lines converged on the stone platform, causing the corpse on it to gleam. The entire space was filled with an extremely rich life force.
Zuan originally wanted to go forward and ask about the glass hairpin, but the saintess stopped him: "They seem to be holding an important resurrection ceremony right now. Don't disturb them, lest they blame you if they fail."
Zuan glanced at it and sighed inwardly: "They won't succeed."
