Lei Yuan and the others instantly sensed the impending danger behind them and hurriedly turned to defend themselves. All three attacked almost simultaneously. Lei Yuan swung his staff with all his might, charging towards a beam of divine light. However, the light was too powerful, and he was blasted back, his body flying backward like a meteor. Zhuge Yu quickly summoned the Bagua diagram, while Sima Changfeng wielded his rune staff, and together they charged towards another beam of divine light. The three attacks collided with a deafening roar that seemed to shatter the very fabric of the world. The two, shaken by the powerful impact, slid through the air, their bodies in disarray.
"So powerful!" Shi Hao was shocked, a trace of fear flashing in his eyes. But then, he gripped the hammer tightly, gathered his strength and rushed towards Yu Kai, as if he was going to defeat him in one fell swoop.
Yu Kai didn't hesitate a moment. With a single thought, he recalled the Moon Spirit Sacred Sword and charged forward to meet Shi Hao, radiating a fearless fighting spirit. Seeing Yu Kai's continued bravery, Dongfang Hao suddenly lost faith in Shi Hao's chances of victory. Fearing that Yu Kai would turn against him after dispatching Shi Hao, he turned and fled, disappearing from view as swiftly as a ghost.
For a moment, Yu Kai and Shi Hao engaged in a fierce battle. Every clash between the two men caused the heavens and the earth to change color, and raging spiritual energy churned like a wild horse unbridled. The surrounding trees were instantly destroyed by this powerful force, turning them into dust. Countless demons and beasts were terrified and fled in all directions, fearing that they would be caught in the aftermath of the battle.
Bai Li stood up in a panic not far away. Seeing Shi Hao being suppressed by Yu Kai, he couldn't help but feel a little happy. However, at this moment, two figures came at the speed of the wind. Before they even arrived, the powerful pressure was so strong that it solidified the air around them.
Two people stood suspended in the air not far away. One held a strange broadsword, the blade flashing with a cold light; the other held a spear with a sharp tip. He was wearing golden armor and looked extraordinary. When Bai Li saw their attire, his face turned pale.
"Are they strong?" Cheetah limped over with a hint of worry in his tone.
"Oh no! These are the invincible general Li Tiancheng and the brave little saint Huang Chengxiang of Heaven! They are both new generals of Heaven, ranking 28th and 29th respectively on the list of geniuses. They are both top geniuses who have risen from small forces, and their strength is unfathomable." Bai Li said solemnly, his eyes revealing deep worry.
"Brother Li! Brother Huang! Come on, join Brother Shi in capturing Yu Kai! He actually dared to openly form an alliance with the demon clan and even injured us. He must be brought back to Heaven to be punished!" Lei Yuan saw the two of them coming and immediately shouted as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw.
"How dare you, Yu Kai, attack a high-ranking official of Heaven!" Li Tiancheng swung his sword fiercely, and a powerful sword force instantly spread out, shattering the thick clouds in the sky. He shouted coldly, his voice like a bell, echoing between heaven and earth.
Yu Kai took advantage of this moment to exert his strength, deftly knocking Shi Hao's divine hammer away. He then kicked Shi Hao in the chest, sending him flying with such force. Li Tiancheng and Huang Chengxiang reacted quickly, scrambling forward to support Shi Hao firmly on either side. The three of them stopped mid-air, gazing coldly at Yu Kai.
Huang Chengxiang and Li Tiancheng came from humble backgrounds. Despite holding positions in the Heavenly Court, they were not well-received by the legitimate deities. They constantly planned for their descendants, shouldering much of the arduous work within the Heavenly Court, yet they rarely received any recognition or reward. Although they had no desire to become embroiled in this conflict, they simultaneously received orders from Heavenly Master Zhang Daoling, Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li Jing, and Universal Transformation Heavenly Venerable Wen Zhong: "Capture Yu Kai!" They had some prior knowledge of Yu Kai and knew he had committed no evil deeds. Like them, he had risen to prominence through chance. However, now that they had received orders, they were compelled to obey. Weapons in hand, the two men pressed forward, advancing on Yu Kai.
They knew full well that Yu Kai could defeat Yang Nianzhen, and his strength was undoubtedly not inferior to theirs. Therefore, they launched their attacks with swift and devastating blows. Li Tiancheng's immense sword intent seemed to cleave the heavens and earth, its gleaming blade seemingly capable of severing everything in the world. Huang Chengxiang's spear gleamed even more deeply, tearing through the very void like a flaming missile, bearing the aura of devastating destruction as it charged towards Yu Kai, determined to annihilate him with a single blow.
Yu Kai's heart suddenly jumped, the overwhelming pressure causing his clothes to rustle. He clearly realized that the two men were indeed formidable, and since he hadn't fully recovered yet, he didn't dare to be careless. He immediately mobilized his mecha, quickly wrapping himself up, and the mecha's powerful power system began to frantically absorb the surrounding spiritual energy. Then, he fiercely slashed with his sword, the laws of chaos and sword intent perfectly blending, swiftly meeting the opponent's attack. "Boom!" Three powerful attacks collided violently in the void, with a deafening roar. The monsters and humans in the distance were swept away by the terrifying shockwave, and the scene was in chaos.
The three were simultaneously thrown back by the impact, but then, gathering their strength, they charged forward again. For a moment, the battlefield was ablaze with blades, spears, and swords. The very void shattered in their clash, forming a massive black hole that seemed to devour everything in the world. Deep chasms were carved into the earth by their attacks.
Shen Xingze and others in the deep pool were anxious when they saw this and were about to rush out to support Yu Kai regardless of everything.
"No! Big brother consumed so much energy just to help us improve our physical fitness. If we rush out now, how can we be worthy of his hard work?" Bai Zhiwen hurriedly shouted to them, his eyes full of anxiety and determination.
"If big brother is in danger, what's the use of my physical improvement? If you are greedy for physical improvement, you can stay. I will never let big brother face danger alone!" Shen Xingze was anxious and directly removed the barrier above his head, ready to rush out.
Ruiying saw this and immediately removed the barrier. The huge Qilin figure appeared and said with a firm look in his eyes: "I will accompany you to save the master!"
Just as the two were about to charge, Bai Zhiwen extended a massive claw and pinned them down firmly. Simultaneously, a barrier quickly enveloped them. "Calm down, everyone! Only the top 28th and 29th ranked experts on the Tianjiao Ranking are here. If the top ten arrive, what's the point of you going in?" Bai Zhiwen roared, his voice filled with unquestionable authority. "We shouldn't blindly follow Big Brother to death, but rather live with him!"
