The gate to the Great Dao radiated a dazzling golden light, the runes on the gate flickered incessantly, and the power of the Great Dao flowed like a tide.
An incredibly powerful suppressive force surged out from within the door, like an invisible shackle, firmly locking down thousands of miles of space and time.
At this moment, the white-browed Taoist was under the shadow of this terrifying power. Looking up at the huge portal that hung high in the air and seemed to be integrated with the heavens and earth, his face turned extremely ugly.
Just then, the Gate of the Great Dao suddenly emitted a muffled roar, and then crashed down with the force of a thunderbolt.
As it fell, the entire space seemed to distort and deform, and the white-browed old Taoist standing below felt the surrounding air instantly solidify, leaving him unable to move.
"Ah!" Faced with such a desperate situation, the white-browed old Taoist roared, a resolute glint in his eyes.
He exerted all his strength to mobilize the power of the Great Dao within his body, and his entire body erupted with an astonishing aura.
With his efforts, the air that had been binding his body gradually loosened.
He finally managed to break free from the lock of the Great Dao Gate, and in his haste, he threw the scroll in his hand into the sky.
The next instant, the Gate of the Great Dao slammed down with unparalleled power onto the magical treasure in his hand.
In an instant, the white-browed Taoist felt an overwhelming force surge towards him, causing him to involuntarily fly backward.
His face was as pale as paper, and a trickle of blood oozed from the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating that he had suffered a serious injury.
The gate to the Great Dao had already collapsed, turning into pieces of golden light and dissipating.
Clearly, although the old Taoist priest was injured in the process, he ultimately managed to withstand the suppression of the Great Dao Gate.
At this moment, Hu Le's figure shifted, and in a flash, he suddenly appeared in front of the white-browed old Taoist. With a sudden swing of his bamboo staff, he brushed straight towards the old Taoist's face.
Upon seeing this, the old Taoist's expression changed drastically. He quickly took a step back, holding the scroll in his left hand and grabbing at the air with his right. A flash of cold light appeared in his palm, and he immediately parried the bamboo staff.
With a clang!
The bamboo staff and the longsword clashed fiercely.
That old Taoist was merely the spirit of a magical artifact, formed from primordial energy. His entire strength came from that scroll-shaped magical artifact. In terms of true strength, how could he compare to Hu Le?
With just one impact, the old Taoist priest let out a muffled groan, his longsword shattered into countless fragments, and he himself swayed.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Hu Le swung his bamboo staff again, and immediately layers of staff shadows appeared, tightly surrounding the white-browed old Taoist and launching a fierce attack.
The old Taoist hurriedly unrolled the scroll and waved it left and right, struggling to defend himself for a while, but Hu Le eventually managed to find an opening.
Hu Le suddenly swept his bamboo staff horizontally, forcibly pushing the scroll aside, and then pointed forward, the bamboo staff accurately striking the old Taoist's chest.
\"ah! \"
The old Taoist groaned in pain, his chest caved in noticeably, and his entire body flew backward.
Hu Le did not give chase, but simply waved his bamboo staff lightly, and a powerful aura instantly condensed on the staff.
As he moved, a crescent-shaped blade of energy shot out from the bamboo staff, rushing straight toward the old Taoist priest with a fierce momentum.
The old Taoist's expression changed drastically. The crescent-shaped blade of air was extremely fast, reaching him in the blink of an eye.
Before he could react, he heard a muffled "thud" as the blade of air sliced right through his waist.
The old Taoist priest let out a painful scream as his body was instantly severed at the waist, splitting into two pieces.
Surprisingly, no blood splattered.
It turns out that the old Taoist's physical body was not a real body, but rather a manifestation of primordial energy.
Nevertheless, this blow still dealt a heavy blow to the veteran.
Just then, the old Taoist priest quickly raised the scroll in his hand and shook it vigorously.
Suddenly, a stream of pure energy shot out from the scroll, enveloping the old Taoist's two halves of his body like a cloud.
In just a moment, the pure energy completely enveloped the old Taoist's body.
Under the influence of the pure energy, the old Taoist's body began to undergo miraculous changes.
In the blink of an eye, his two halves of body fused together, and he was completely restored to his original state.
However, before he could catch his breath, the Primordial Bell suddenly flew in from the side and crashed into him, emitting a deafening roar.
The bell struck the old Taoist priest mercilessly, causing him immense pain.
Let alone the fact that the old Taoist's physical body was merely a manifestation of the innate primordial energy of creation, even a real flesh and blood body would find it difficult to withstand the fierce blow of the Primordial Bell.
In an instant, the old Taoist's newly restored body exploded like fireworks, transforming into countless streams of energy that shot out in all directions.
Just then, a faint ray of light quietly rose from the ball of energy and flew into the scroll-shaped magical treasure as swiftly as lightning.
Immediately afterwards, the magical treasure trembled violently, emitting a dazzling light, and then transformed into a stream of light, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.
A moment later, it reappeared in the sky thousands of miles away, casting down a dense beam of clear light, revealing a figure once more—the same old Taoist with white eyebrows.
"You brat! You've gone too far! I'll fight you to the death!"
The old Taoist priest looked at Hu Le with a solemn expression and a hint of sternness in his eyes, then let out a deafening shout.
He reached out, grabbed the scroll, lifted it forcefully, and then gave it a sharp shake.
With this shake, the scroll quickly unfurled, and countless purple-gold Daoist proverbs fluttered out like a flock of graceful butterflies. They danced in the void, shining like dazzling stars.
These Great Dao Inscriptions seem to have their own will and goals. They quickly dispersed, occupying mysterious and profound positions, as if constructing some kind of unknown formation.
Suddenly, strands of golden threads shot out from the Great Dao Inscriptions. These golden threads crisscrossed in the void like a spider web, quickly connecting all the Great Dao Inscriptions together.
The original static Great Dao Proverbs began to twist and deform, as if they had been given life.
Some transformed into towering, cloud-piercing mountains, others into raging infernos, and still others into lush, verdant forests.
In an instant, everything in the world was renewed, and all sorts of strange phenomena emerged. Each phenomenon represented a different power of the Great Dao, which flowed endlessly in the void and merged with each other.
In the next instant, those boundless phenomena began to collide and merge, forming a powerful force.
Under the influence of this force, they gradually coalesced into vast void arrays, which exuded an ancient and mysterious aura, as if containing endless wisdom and secrets...
