Before long, one by one, the rest of them recovered, and the nine of them immediately flew back to the capital as quickly as possible.
"It's a pity I only have two Golden Rainbow Talismans, otherwise I could have arrived instantly," Yaochi sighed.
She also suffered heavy losses this time, not only losing her subordinates but also many props.
Li Qianxia and Yang Qinglan could only summon Li Changzhou to their side; they had no way to get there quickly.
As for calling Li Changzhou over, that would ensure his safety, but what if he hasn't obtained the dragon vein yet? Or what if he's about to get it?
Of course, none of that is the point. According to the agreement, if there was real danger, Li Changzhou would definitely call them over. Since there wasn't, it proves that it hasn't reached the point where they would risk everything to summon Li Changzhou to their side.
Nine streaks of light streaked across the sky, carving furrows in the sea of clouds, rushing towards the capital.
The feeling of suffocation was like a tide engulfing my head.
Li Changzhou tried desperately to breathe, but he couldn't calm his wildly beating heart.
Opposite him, Tao Zhongwen, Ti Yuanzi, Sheng Duanming, Lan Daoxing, and Lan Tianyu also had their mouths wide open, breathing like stranded fish, their eyes lifeless.
The eighteen levels of hell, which had collapsed in half, slowly disappeared and could not be seen again for a short time;
The Taotie had long since disappeared, and even the King Cobra had been shattered in two and fled back into the void;
The Emerald Bee Sword was also put away; the intensity of this battle was not a test for it, but destruction.
Of the six people present, Li Changzhou was the first to catch his breath and straighten his body.
Tao Zhongwen, Ti Yuanzi and the others narrowed their eyes. They did not expect that even after he used the Heavenly Emperor's Body and fought with the five of them until now, his remaining strength still surpassed that of any one of them!
Li Changzhou raised his head. The capital city beneath his feet was mostly gone, and the sea of clouds above his head had long been torn apart. The full moon of the fifteenth day of the lunar month stood majestically, watching over the world.
“You guys,” Li Changzhou turned his gaze to the five men, “are you addicted to dying?”
"Even if I die, I will avenge Zhongkang!" Tao Zhongwen stood up straight.
"I'm old, cough cough, I'll die anyway even if I don't become an immortal." Ti Yuanzi coughed and straightened his back.
"Fellow Daoist Li, there's nothing to say. Who doesn't want immortality? Who wouldn't want to become an immortal or an ancestor?" Lan Daoxing and Lan Tianyu also looked over.
Sheng Duanming laughed loudly: "Throughout history, countless cultivators have longed for this life-or-death opportunity but never had it! I'm addicted, I'm happy to do it, so what!"
"Alright!" Li Changzhou nodded. "Let's go! Let's see who has the bigger addiction! Let's see who's tougher!"
boom!
They went all out right from the start!
The sky trembled, a hurricane stretched from heaven to earth, and lightning crackled across its surface as it roared in.
"Imperial command!" Tao Zhongwen made a hand seal with his left hand and pointed at Li Changzhou with his right. Talismans rushed out like a waterfall, each one powerful enough to blow up a house.
Lan Daoxing and Lan Tianyu twisted their bodies and transformed into a vast bamboo forest, the bamboo leaves lush and green, each leaf a flying sword as fast as an arrow.
Sheng Duanming raised his hand and grabbed it, unleashing a massive Five Elements Handprint.
Li Changzhou shook his arms and roared to the sky, unleashing the Five Elements Qi Blade from his entire body, instantly creating a dazzling display of sword light in the bamboo forest.
"kill!"
He turned and twisted, transforming into a five-element energy wheel, weaving through the bamboo forest and shattering an endless stream of bamboo leaves.
"Boom!" The Five Elements Qi Wheel clashed with the hurricane carrying thunder, and the aftershocks blew away the rubble of the Forbidden City.
Suddenly it rose from the ground again, rushed into the sea of talismans, and pierced through the Five Elements Great Handprint.
As the Five Elements Qi Wheel dissipated, Li Changzhou revealed himself, standing amidst the sea of clouds.
He raised his right arm high, and with a boom, the Five Elements Qi Blade shot out from his arm and pierced into the sky.
From a distance, it looks like a vertical five-colored rainbow!
"Let's see who can withstand my sword! Who can stop me from becoming an immortal!" Li Changzhou turned and leaped down from the sea of clouds, as if wielding an iron chain to whip the earth, and unleashed the Five Elements Qi Blade, hundreds of meters long, in his hand.
Faced with this earth-shattering attack, Tao Zhongwen suddenly roared, "Form ranks!"
The Taoist priests guarding the Forbidden City stopped everything they were doing and chanted incantations in unison.
Not only that!
Tao Zhongwen, Ti Yuanzi, Sheng Duanming, Lan Daoxing, and Lan Tianyu sat cross-legged in mid-air, chanting incantations.
Buzz!
The Five Elements Qi Blade that Li Changzhou was wielding hummed in the incantation, then suddenly split into five streams of light.
Metal energy is white and bright, wood energy is blue and green, water energy is black and deep, fire energy is red and fiery, and earth energy is apricot and yellow.
The five streams of light swirled and roared, spinning faster and faster, gradually leaving afterimages and forming a wall of light that surrounded Li Changzhou.
Li Changzhou's sense of crisis rose rapidly. He raised his arm and slashed out with a bang, unleashing another Five Elements Qi Blade.
The air blade struck the light wall like flour being smeared on dough; the light wall continued to rotate, absorbing the air blade back into it.
The light barrier quickly condensed, forming a large cauldron in the air.
"Heaven and earth are the furnace, the five elements are the firewood, refine!" Tao Zhongwen and the other four, who were sitting cross-legged around the cauldron, pushed their hands together forcefully towards the center.
boom!
The cauldron spewed out thousands of five-colored flames, burying Li Changzhou.
"Roar!" A ferocious black creature raised its head from the flames and roared to the sky.
With a single projectile, the Five Elements Cauldron was shattered, its brilliance scattered. With a tilt of the head, the cauldron nearly collapsed!
"Ignite the Five Elements Fire within him!" Tao Zhongwen shouted.
All the Taoist priests in the Forbidden City, along with Tao Zhongwen, Ti Yuanzi, Sheng Duanming, Lan Daoxing, and Lan Tianyu, simultaneously performed hand seals.
"lead!"
boom!
"roar!
"The Chaos Yang Serpent let out a painful howl, and its body was also engulfed in the fires of the Five Elements."
