As the ancient venerable one drew closer, Wan Fanghan formed a second incantation.
"Sequence Two: Flow Interruption!"
After he finished speaking, a huge, rolling wave appeared centered on Wan Fanghan.
However, the Ancient Venerable simply swung his Cherry Blossom Spear casually, splitting the flow with a single strike! He tore a huge gash in the giant wave.
As the ancient venerable figure drew ever closer, Wan Fanghan felt an even greater sense of crisis.
He clasped his hands together and then formed the third incantation.
"Sequence Three: Funeral!"
As soon as he finished speaking, countless petals flew towards the Ancient Venerable.
These flying flowers have the power to bewitch people; once touched, one will lose their senses and fall into a hallucination.
Faced with Wan Fanghan's Sequence Three attack, the Ancient Venerable finally reacted.
He gripped the butt of the spear and swept it horizontally in the opposite direction!
With a single shot, countless streaks of flying petals were simultaneously knocked down.
At this moment, the Ancient Venerable had already arrived in front of Wan Fanghan.
He gripped the spear tightly and thrust it into Wan Fanghan's chest!
*Pfft*
With a thrust of the spear, the tip pierced through Wan Fanghan's chest.
Even though everyone knew there was a difference in strength between the two, no one expected the battle to be so overwhelming.
On the underworld side, Yama, the King of Hell, let out several hearty laughs.
"Hahaha! As expected of the Divine General! He captured this person so easily. The Southern Heavenly Gate is indeed unfathomable, hahaha!"
In contrast to the mocking laughter from the underworld, the Emperor's Palace was completely silent.
Hong Jiuquan's victory brought joy to everyone in the palace, but Wan Fanghan's defeat brought them to their senses instantly.
Su Nian pinched her chin, her expression somewhat strange.
Has Wan Fanghan truly been defeated?
Seemingly to verify his conjecture, Wan Fanghan, who should have died, suddenly rushed forward and hugged Gu Zun!
The sudden turn of events surprised and delighted everyone.
"As expected... I knew our patriarch wouldn't be defeated so easily!" Within the Chaos Demon Clan, an elder let out a joyful cheer.
After tightly embracing the Ancient Venerable, Wan Fanghan choked on blood and grinned.
"So easily hooked, the people of Nantianmen are nothing special!"
Gu Zun sensed danger and instinctively tried to shake off Wan Fanghan, but Wan Fanghan was one step ahead of him.
"Chaos Sequence Technique!" Wan Fanghan shouted, "Sequence Five: Chaos!"
Upon hearing those words, the Ancient Venerable felt a momentary dizziness before his eyes.
He then flew into a rage, shouting, "You're asking for it!"
With a sudden, powerful palm strike, Wan Fanghan was reduced to a bloody mist!
He withdrew his hand, looking at Wan Fanghan, who had become a pool of blood, with disdain and sneer.
But just as he secured his victory and was about to turn and leave, he experienced a hallucination.
Wan Fanghan stood before him once again!
From the perspective of the Ancient Venerable, Wan Fanghan's face was constantly changing.
Sometimes it becomes Su Nian's face, sometimes it becomes the face of Yama, and sometimes it becomes its own face.
"This is...?" Ancient Venerable realized something was wrong and unleashed a spear strike, killing Wan Fanghan once again!
But then even more Wan Fanghans appeared around him!
They surrounded the ancient sage, completely sealing him off.
"Ancient Venerable! Prepare to die!" Countless Wan Fanghans, each with a different appearance and build, shouted, then swarmed forward and enveloped the Ancient Venerable.
Undeterred by the danger, the ancient venerable one used himself as the center, wielding his spear to strike down countless Wanfang Han.
With the protection of his Crimson Gold Divine Armor, even if there were many 'Wanfanghan', they would be nothing more than ants trying to shake a tree for him.
But a person's endurance is ultimately limited.
After undergoing a tremendous exertion, the Ancient Venerable finally showed signs of fatigue.
He took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and looked up at the sky.
At this moment, both the Human Emperor's Palace and the Underworld forces saw the Ancient Venerable wildly waving his spear in the arena and understood that he had fallen into chaos.
The real Wan Fanghan was sitting to the side, taking advantage of the break to heal his wounds.
"At this rate, it probably won't last long. If this continues, Wan Fanghan will still be at a disadvantage once the Ancient Venerable wakes up!"
"The gap in strength between the two sides is too great. It's already a miracle that such a method could succeed once. Next time, when the Ancient Venerable is on guard, it probably won't be so easy."
A cacophony of voices rose from the Emperor's Palace.
At that moment, the Ancient Venerable looked up at the sky and took a deep breath.
Then, he raised his spear and plunged it into his own thigh!
When the intense pain struck, Gu Zun finally regained consciousness.
Wan Fanghan, however, had not yet recovered.
Compared to Gu Zun's leg injury, Wan Fanghan's bullet pierced his chest.
If he hadn't been a powerful cultivator at the ninth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm, he would have perished after that single spear thrust.
As Gu Zun walked step by step toward Wan Fang Han, many people's hearts were in their throats.
"How dare you make me show such an ugly side! You truly deserve to die!" Gu Zun said, raising his spear.
Then, it suddenly stabbed towards Wan Fanghan's head!
When the spear was less than a centimeter away from Wan Fanghan's head, he murmured softly.
"Same fate!"
"What?" Gu Zun's expression changed, but it was too late to stop.
When Wan Fanghan uttered the words "shared fate," the Ancient Venerable felt as if an additional contract had been placed upon him.
Immediately afterwards, the spear took Wan Fanghan's life.
Similarly, the ancient deity also lost all vitality and fell backward.
When the two men fell to the ground together, the scene fell silent.
No one expected that this second battle would end in such a way.
