Chapter 1839: Exposing Each Other's Bottom Line

The city wall was originally exceptionally hard, impossible to break no matter how it was smashed, but with this press, Miaoyuntian actually "sank" into the wall, just like sinking into water. When the gray dragon released its mouth, Miaoyuntian's legs were embedded in the wall, with only her head and upper body exposed.

At this time, the city wall was solid again, and no matter how Miaoyuntian struggled, it was useless; she just couldn't break out of the wall.

Decades ago, Qianhuan had suffered from this move, but its luck was better than Miaoyuntian's; the gray dragon had only embedded its arm into the city wall at the time, so it chose to sever its arm to escape.

This city wall and the gray dragon were one; no, to be precise, this entire isolated city was one with the gray dragon, and it could use the city wall to deal with enemies.

The gray dragon swam back to Miaoyuntian's side, intending to open its mouth and bite.

Miaozhantian was shocked and threw his left-hand saber at the dragon's eyes.

The gray dragon shook its head, dodging this attack, red light flashing in its eyes, and turned to rush straight at him.

Attack it first? Miaozhantian also pondered these four words from Qianhuan while fighting.

Although he didn't know about the Great Expansion Heavenly Pearl, he could soon figure out the key that He Lingchuan could figure out.

This cunning old thing Qianhuan used the gray dragon guarding the city to deal with him; conversely, wasn't it also using Miaozhantian to grind down this gray dragon?

Earlier on Pu Island, he and his sister were two-on-one, beating Qianhuan until it ran around; now the situation had reversed, and it was the gray dragon and Qianhuan two-on-one, making it difficult for him to parry.

Qianhuan was one thing, but this gray dragon could emerge from any corner of the city; a few times it went quiet, and Miaozhantian thought it had been left far behind, only for it to rush out from under his feet the next second! In the sea of consciousness world, neither True Immortals nor Heavenly Demons could use divine abilities or escape techniques, but this gray dragon could do so wantonly and mysteriously! Its power was greater than Miaozhantian and Qianhuan combined.

This was too unfair.

Miaozhantian judged that it should be a part of some strange object or magic treasure, or perhaps even a wisp of consciousness.

Just looking at the scars on the dragon's body, one knew Qianhuan hadn't done little work during its retreat.

If Miaozhantian had come a few years later, perhaps Qianhuan itself could have defeated this gray dragon and refined the supreme treasure. But now, he had found a better way.

Seeing Qianhuan turn back to find trouble with Miaoyuntian, Miaozhantian couldn't care about the flaw exposed on his back and leaped onto the wall.

A cloud of blood mist exploded on his back; it was the gray dragon clawing at him, almost opening a skylight on his back.

But Miaozhantian still took a step ahead and leaped to his sister's side.

Pulling her out was impossible; the city wall was as hard as rock, and he had already tested its strength just now.

So his next action was horrifying: he pulled out his saber and chopped off Miaoyuntian's legs!

Amidst the splashing blood, body and legs separated.

Although Miaoyuntian was only half a body left, couldn't she be dragged now? Before the gray dragon and Jiaotu rushed over, Miaozhantian placed his sister on his back.

A strange scene appeared:

The two Great Heavenly Demons touched, just like two drops of clear water meeting, merging together without any obstruction.

In just a breath and a half, Miaozhantian turned into a two-headed, four-armed monster. His sister Miaoyuntian "grew" back onto him, waving her hand-forks at the gray dragon; she didn't need her legs for the time being.

Originally, Miaoyuntian had just been split from Miaozhantian; now it was just a return. She could slowly recuperate on Miaozhantian until her legs recovered.

An unknown wind blew, and the Heavenly Demon limbs solidified on the city wall turned to ash and disappeared.

Without the supply of the main body, the limbs purely made of soul power could not be sustained.

His sister was retrieved, but Miaozhantian's mood was not relaxed. His own soul power was tight, and there might not be enough to use for his sister.

And under the pincer attack of the two strong ones, Miaozhantian was frequently injured.

The most serious time, his abdomen was cut open by Jiaotu, almost injuring his tailbone.

He could urge soul power to heal himself, but soul power was his capital for fighting and surviving; use a little, and there was a little less.

Miaozhantian also tried to rush onto the city wall and jump down, hoping to escape into the sea and avoid the gray dragon's pursuit.

It was the guardian spirit of the city; it shouldn't continue to hunt enemies who had left Panlongcheng.

But Miaozhantian leaped off the city wall and didn't jump into the sea, but appeared again in the water pond in front of the Lady Mitian Temple! Then, the gray dragon followed.

Miaozhantian tried twice and failed, and the healing speed of the wounds on his body had already slowed down.

He couldn't get out, and he couldn't win. If this continued, he wouldn't last long.

But he also discovered one point: Qianhuan was exceptionally careful in the battle, not daring to attack the gray dragon or the city wall.

This was probably because it was afraid that the gray dragon would list it as an enemy and turn around to bite without mercy.

Thus, Miaozhantian climbed onto the city wall to fight.

Sure enough, Jiaotu was wary, fighting with restrained hands and feet. Miaozhantian's pressure was slightly reduced.

But Qianhuan was not in a hurry.

Whether in the sea of consciousness or the lower realm, it was the dominant side. Anyway, Miaozhantian couldn't escape the sea of consciousness; once his soul power was exhausted, he would die here!

"The supreme treasure guarded by this gray dragon is related to Panlongcheng, right?" Miaozhantian retreated while fighting, happening to pass by a black dragon mark. He pointed at the black dragon mark casually, "Panlongcheng was betrayed by you back then, which is why it ended up like that; no wonder the Dragon God never looked down on Lingshan."

Qianhuan's offensive immediately became two points sharper, and it sneered at the same time:

"It was you who killed General Hong! It was you who destroyed Panlongcheng! You even lost a clone in Lady Mitian's hands that day, have you forgotten?"

The Shadow Dragon had no spirit; Qianhuan was very sure of this, but the battle and conversation in the sea of consciousness could be heard by others! Qianhuan knew very well that He Lingchuan and others were watching the live broadcast through the Haoyuan Golden Mirror.

The trouble was, it couldn't cut it off!

The Haoyuan Golden Mirror had connected to the Inverted Sea's law network, but it didn't belong to it.

He Xiao and the Great Fang Hu were closely related, and perhaps he also knew some of Panlongcheng's past; if he heard Miaozhantian's words, what would his response be? "That was General Hong, not Lady Mitian!" Miaozhantian corrected, then continued, "We later found out that the whereabouts of the Great Fang Hu lid in the other world were revealed by you to the Ke family, and the Ke family made a great contribution. Otherwise, how could we know the Great Fang Hu was in Panlongcheng? Without your tip-off, how could we know General Hong was seriously injured?"

With the Great Fang Hu lid presented by the Ke family, the Tiangong could locate the Great Fang Hu and confirm that this supreme treasure was in Panlongcheng!

Qianhuan shouted angrily: "Nonsense! What does the traitor of the Yuan Nation have to do with us? A hundred years have passed, and you still dare to splash dirty water on us!"

"For immortals and demons like us, a hundred years is just a snap of the fingers." Miaozhantian laughed, "You haven't attacked Panlongcheng? Then where did you get this supreme treasure guarded by the gray dragon?"

He wasn't sure if these light words were useful to the gray dragon, but seeing Qianhuan refute seriously, it was quite convincing.

Could it be that this gray dragon could understand? No, this shouldn't be. The designated guardian of rare treasures usually didn't have self-awareness.

With self-awareness, there would be emotions, thinking, compromise, doubt, gullibility, and deception! As the final guardian of the isolated city, this gray dragon could consistently reject Qianhuan; it must be mechanical, cold, and unfeeling.

Then, who was Qianhuan defending to? Could it be that there was a fourth person in this sea of consciousness besides him, Miaoyuntian, and Qianhuan?

Miaozhantian suddenly remembered an unusual power.

When he and Qianhuan were fighting with the Divine Fire Array, he had felt a power participate, vague and fleeting, but a little familiar!

Even he felt it; as the formulator of the Inverted Sea's laws, how could Qianhuan be ignorant? "I originally felt strange; Lingshan made a deal with us and betrayed Panlongcheng; what was it for?" Miaozhantian continued, "Later I remembered, your Mirage Pearl was dug out by Lady Mitian three thousand years ago, your cultivation could no longer advance, and you urgently needed a supreme treasure to replace it!"

Qianhuan shook off Miaoyuntian's attack with a claw and said disdainfully: "As the goddess in charge of the 'Eye of Truth,' you tell such big lies yourself! There is no evidence for old events from thousands of years ago; you can just talk nonsense. This pearl was presented by the Baling Nation; do you think the Baling Nation was only loyal to you?"

He Lingchuan, guarding before the Haoyuan Golden Mirror, remained expressionless, but his eyeballs rolled twice.

He heard it all.

At the moment, it was Miaozhantian's time of internal and external trouble.

The Haoyuan Golden Mirror suddenly received another invitation from Xiao Wencheng; he hoped He Lingchuan and others would work together with the Illusion Sect to attack the Divine Fire Array barrier.

Although Xiao Wencheng's words were as earnest as ever, this time, He Lingchuan did not agree.

He didn't even make any reply.

Xiao Wencheng also requested a face-to-face meeting across the mirror, but this request was like a stone sinking into the sea.

The Haoyuan Golden Mirror was He Lingchuan's; as long as he didn't agree, Xiao Wencheng couldn't get there in one step. Because He Lingchuan and others had moved to the shore of Kidney Lake, and this was Miaozhantian's territory.

Lower realm.

Excluding the lotus lamp at the bottom of Kidney Lake, only the last five array feet of the Divine Fire Array remained.

In order to concentrate all efforts to attack Qianhuan's sea of consciousness, Miaozhantian further reduced the seven array feet to five, three around the lake and two on the periphery, to accommodate the Tiangong team.

But the remaining array feet were also greatly strengthened, not only becoming extremely solid, but the heat emitted by the Divine Radiance Meteorite was also astonishing; the nearby ground had already melted, and even the air was distorted.

Illusion Sect immortals who were immune to cold and heat had to operate their true power when approaching, otherwise their hair and beards would be scorched.

However, the Tiangong army stood in front of the Divine Radiance Meteorite and was basically unaffected. The astonishing flames and heat did not cause them harm, just making them sweat more.

As Miaozhantian's understanding of the Inverted Sea's rules became more profound, the divine abilities he could display here became more diverse. This time, the Divine Radiance Meteorite was imitating the Yin-Yang Bowl, directing light and heat at the enemy while making his own people basically immune.

Otherwise, the Tiangong power would be difficult to compete with the local Illusion Sect forces at this time.

Only three demon immortals and Heavenly Demons remained, but there were five opponents. If the array feet were dug up by the opponents again and the Divine Fire Array was broken, Qianhuan's three Dharma forms would be freed and return to support the main body, then Miaozhantian's sea of consciousness battle could only be declared a failure. ===== CHAPTER 1840 =====
