"Sect Leader Bai, when I see the Lord in the future, I will report to him what you did today."
"Pear Blossom Rain said softly."
"I hope you can control yourself and obey my commands from now on. This is the Lord's will, not my intention to control you."
She had previously located this new aura and then told Bai Xiao its location.
The two had originally planned to attack at the same time, but Bai Xiao, who arrived first, saw that the other party was only at the Snake Core Realm and attacked first.
After being rebuked by Pear Blossom Rain, Bai Xiao felt irritated and had nowhere to vent his anger. He felt as if something was stuck in his chest, making him extremely uncomfortable.
"Sect Leader Bai, do you understand?"
"I see……"
Bai Xiao spoke with difficulty.
"good."
Pear Blossom Rain nodded, and then runes lit up in her palm.
The next moment, countless pale purple energy clusters shot out from her palm, spinning and flying in all directions.
In the blink of an eye, the pale purple hue completely enveloped the surrounding area, which spanned dozens of miles.
"This person is very unusual. When we make our move at the same time, we will need to use our full strength."
"Pear Blossom Rain" whispered.
Looking at the pale purple energy that enveloped the heavens and earth, Geng Di on the other side showed no sign of panic.
"Little girl, how did you break my mental illusion just now?"
He asked with a smile.
"Little girl?"
Pear Blossom Rain was stunned for a moment.
She had never met Geng Di's subordinates before, but the person in front of her gave her a very strange feeling.
"Is this your ability? An ability bestowed upon you by divine authority?"
Geng Di then asked.
Pear Blossom Rain squinted her eyes, still not replying.
Seeing her like this, Geng Di was not annoyed, but instead looked at Bai Xiao.
"Your sword strike just now was also the power of the God of Desire, wasn't it?"
You know?
Bai Xiao frowned and gripped the sword even tighter.
He remembered something that the lord had once said: Geng Di's subordinates included many who held divine authority, and some might even possess more than one kind of authority or ability.
Thinking about this, he suddenly felt that some of the explanations made sense.
The fact that the opponent, with only the cultivation level of the Serpent Core Realm, could unleash such power strongly suggests that he likely used some kind of divine authority.
"Of course I know."
Geng Di put his hands behind his back and said with a smile.
"Your ability was once quite famous. In the thousands of years of the Great Long Dynasty, there were three people who held this power and became the number one person in the world."
"With this power, one sword can sever all ages, be invincible, and be unbreakable."
"In the successive divine authority rankings of the Great Long Dynasty, this authority ranks ninth, hence the name of the Ninth Sword in the World."
At this point, Geng Di gazed gently at Bai Xiao.
“I suspected back then that this power might be in her hands, and it wasn’t confirmed until today.”
"She bestowed this ability upon you, so it seems you are one of her confidants."
"You know the Lord?!"
Pear Blossom Rain asked in confusion.
"Hahaha."
Geng Di suddenly laughed, as if he had remembered something that made him happy.
"Yes, of course we know each other."
"I'm an old friend of hers. We haven't seen each other for so many years, I've missed her terribly, hahaha..."
Bai Xiao and Li Huayu exchanged a glance, both noticing the strange look in each other's eyes.
"Something's not right, we can't delay any longer."
Bai Xiao transmitted his voice.
"This guy is too strange; he's definitely not someone to be trifled with. We must capture him alive."
"good."
As soon as the words were spoken, the two attacked simultaneously.
Pear Blossom Rain's eyes sharpened, and she clenched her hands tightly, instantly transforming the purple light that filled the sky into countless fine needles.
The needles were as fine as silk, shimmering with a cold light.
She parted her lips slightly and uttered a string of mysterious incantations.
In the blink of an eye, countless fine needles shot out like a torrential rain.
Wherever the fine needle passed, it left behind dazzling purple trails, like a beautiful painting, yet carrying endless killing intent.
Geng Di's figure flickered, and he remained completely calm in the face of the sky full of cold light.
His vertical pupil on his forehead glowed with a scarlet light, and even more energy surged out like a tide.
At the same time, Bai Xiao shouted loudly, his voice shaking the universe.
He raised his longsword high, its blade gleaming as if the power of the sun, moon, and stars were gathering within it.
Immediately afterwards, he slashed down with his longsword, and a peerless sword light poured down like a silver river.
Geng Di could sense that this sword strike was different from the previous attacks, as it utilized the power of divine authority.
"Make your move and cripple him."
Pear Blossom Rain stared intently at the man opposite her. The purple needle rain above her head was merely a means for her to obstruct him; her main attack was still Bai Xiao.
Geng Di pointed a finger at his vertical pupil, and then countless bizarre and strange scenes appeared around him.
"Another mental illusion!"
"It's no use, break it!!"
With a loud shout, Pear Blossom Rain caused the surrounding air to vibrate with her power.
Immediately afterwards, the illusion receded like a receding tide.
"Hahaha, let's see what else you can do!"
Bai Xiao laughed loudly, and a faint smile also appeared on Li Huayu's lips.
But at this very moment, the two of them could see clearly.
A faint white mist appeared on the body of the person opposite.
Then, his skin began to break and crack little by little.
Geng Di's voice rang in their ears like a demon's.
"Really, it's no use?"
