Chapter 833: Burning Dao Flowers

The six Three-Flower Realm Great Perfection experts from the Heavens Beyond the Heavens did not dare to risk their lives against Xuan Yuezi, fearing they might be dragged down with her. After all, at their cultivation level, as long as spiritual energy was abundant, they could live forever; it was only natural to feel uneasy when facing a formidable enemy of the same rank.

Thus, they sought to invite more fellow Daoists, hoping to easily capture Xuan Yuezi with an overwhelming numerical advantage and obtain the method for cross-dimensional travel.

However, Xuan Yuezi had long since sent a message via crane. As long as Li Yi arrived to support her, the two of them joining forces would make it impossible for these six Great Perfection experts to stand a chance; their defeat was inevitable.

Yet, such a stalemate consumed a great deal of their own strength.

This withered world was frantically plundering the spiritual energy from these Great Perfection cultivators, and this plundering from the world itself could not be blocked. The only thing one could do was to seal oneself off and reduce the rate of depletion.

But at this moment, no one dared to seal their own magic power, or they would surely die the moment the opponent launched an attack.

"This Xuan Yuezi wants to wear us down in a stalemate. It seems she has something to restore her magic power, otherwise, she would never dare to do this." Tian Yunzi, his expression indifferent, sent a voice transmission to the other five fellow Daoists.

"I can see that. It is fortunate that we have many people, otherwise Xuan Yuezi would have already made her move. She alone would not be confident in fighting the six of us at once. If even one or two fewer people had come this time, I fear we would have been forcibly killed and broken through by Xuan Yuezi." Jiang Chengzi, the grandmaster of the Heaven Dao Sect, also replied via voice transmission.

"How much longer until the other fellow Daoists arrive to support us? This stalemate is not a solution. The Dharma-Ending world is plundering our spiritual energy too viciously; we cannot resist it at all. Countless cultivation experts passed away because of this in the past. If we keep wearing ourselves down with Xuan Yuezi, the risk is too great; something might go wrong." A grandmaster from another sect said anxiously.

Lingering here was not just about consuming magic power; it was betting with their lives. Once they failed to obtain the cross-dimensional method, they would be left with only half a life even if they returned to the Heavens Beyond the Heavens.

"In this Dharma-Ending era, how can we escape the shackles of this world without gambling?" Jiang Chengzi snorted coldly. "The spiritual energy in the Heavens Beyond the Heavens is already very thin. If we cannot find a good way out, all the Great Perfection cultivators hiding in the Heavens Beyond will perish. It is impossible to hold out until the recovery of spiritual energy."

"Right now, the cross-dimensional method on Xuan Yuezi is the only path to survival. If we miss it, we might never encounter it again in our lifetime. If we don't risk our lives now, when will we? When our spiritual energy is exhausted, our Three Flowers have withered, and we are about to pass away?"

"Fellow Daoist's words are reasonable." Tian Yunzi, standing to the side, also agreed wholeheartedly.

The other Great Perfection cultivators understood this logic, but they lacked confidence when facing Xuan Yuezi and could not help but want to retreat. Moreover, the cost of wearing themselves down in this Dharma-Ending world was too high.

"These old things, are they risking passing away just to wear me down?" Xuan Yuezi was prepared for defense, but she did not expect the six of them to be so composed, not making a move at all. This made her realize that the situation might be a bit wrong.

Perhaps these old things were also waiting for reinforcements.

The number of powerful cultivators who had fled to the Heavens Beyond the Heavens was not small. If the matter of cross-dimensional travel attracted dozens of Great Perfection experts, it would be disastrous. Even if her strength was great and her magic power abundant, she would be unable to fight off so many hands.

Thinking of this.

The Treasure Moon Compass beside her could not help but hum and vibrate, blooming with murderous intent.

This power had previously made the hearts of these six Great Perfection cultivators jump.

If not for this Tianyue Yao Wang weapon, why would they be so cowering before Xuan Yuezi? If the full power of this treasure were unleashed, even a Great Perfection expert would have to bleed; it would just be a matter of who was unlucky enough to be slain by Xuan Yuezi.

"Xuan Yuezi is still young and hot-headed after all. Could it be that she can no longer hold back and wants to make a move? Or has she already guessed our intentions? This is not good. With her current state and that divine weapon, it is enough to drag at least three or four of us to the grave. But it is fortunate that it is Xuan Yuezi who came; if it were that Xiang Xiangzi, I fear we wouldn't even have the chance for a stalemate."

As the grandmaster of the Heaven Dao Sect, Jiang Chengzi could not help but become nervous.

As one of the former Seven Immortal Maidens of the Heaven Dao Sect, he had paid much attention to her as a grandmaster. After all, the Seven Immortal Maidens were all seeds of Great Perfection. In the past, he had even guided their cultivation of Daoist arts, and he understood the personality of each Immortal Maiden to some extent.

"As a grandmaster of the Heaven Dao Sect, to be unable to even discipline a disciple, it is truly shameful. If this cross-dimensional opportunity had fallen into the hands of our Heaven One Sect, this act of betraying one's master and ancestors would never have happened today." Tian Yunzi said with some dissatisfaction.

"Now doesn't seem to be the time to talk about this, wait..." Jiang Chengzi said, suddenly sensing something, and looked fiercely toward the distant sky.

The other Great Perfection cultivation experts also discovered something wrong and looked in the same direction.

Something was flying toward them at an extremely fast speed.

However, the next moment.

A crimson-gold stream of light pierced the sky, and an Immortal Dao warship emerged, descending into this world. The appearance of this warship broke the solemn atmosphere and also attracted everyone's attention.

Xuan Yuezi was overjoyed at the sight.

Reinforcements had arrived.

Sure enough, when it came to support speed, Tai Yi was faster. He was always so reliable at critical moments and would never let people down.

As for the others who saw the Immortal Dao warship, their faces turned black instantly.

This strange flying object clearly did not belong to this world, so the identity of the newcomer was beyond doubt.

"So that's how it is. I really didn't expect that in this Dharma-Ending world, there would be so many experts with sound magic power hidden here. Three Flowers Gathering at the Summit, Five Qi Returning to the Origin, good, very good, all are existences of the Great Perfection realm."

A vigorous, heavy voice resonated, like the sound of a dragon and tiger. As the warship's hatch opened, a majestic figure stepped on auspicious clouds and appeared in everyone's sight.

Just a leak of a trace of power, and countless silver lightning bolts immediately shot out from the clouds beneath his feet. In the blink of an eye, a white sea of clouds turned into a silver sea of thunder.

Its power was like a prison, making people's hearts tremble.

"This guy is also a cultivator, with shadows of Daoist arts like Subduing Dragons and Tigers, Riding Clouds and Driving Mist... It's just that this person's aura is truly terrifying." Jiang Chengzi, Tian Yunzi, and the other four Great Perfection cultivation experts all looked at Li Yi with solemn expressions.

And just by his aura, one could conclude that this person's combat power was astonishing, as if he were not born to cultivate, but to fight and kill, possessing an aggressive and invincible momentum.

"Who are you?"

Jiang Chengzi shouted: "Today's matter has nothing to do with you, an outsider. Do not meddle in other people's business. I advise you to leave quickly, lest you ruin your own life. Fellow Daoists of the Great Perfection realm from the Heavens Beyond the Heavens are on their way. I hope you can weigh the gravity of the situation."

With such a change, they could no longer care about the stalemate with Xuan Yuezi. If they couldn't drive this person away, I fear everything would be lost.

But at this critical juncture, they could not retreat either, otherwise, the moment they moved, they would be attacked by the two of them. No one dared to bet that their luck was good enough that they wouldn't be targeted.

Therefore, intimidating the newcomer was very necessary.

"Who am I?" Li Yi smiled coldly: "Xuan Yuezi calls me Tai Yi Heavenly Venerable, who do you say I am?"

Tai Yi Heavenly Venerable? This person was actually crowned with the name of Heavenly Venerable?

"An outsider expert is also worthy of being called Heavenly Venerable? Do you really think my Dao Court has no one?" Tian Yunzi suddenly shouted, his voice growing from small to large, instantly covering the firmament, and even suppressing the rolling sound of thunder.

"Art of Size as One Wishes?" Li Yi stared at this person: "What is your relationship with the Heaven One Sect?"

"This seat is the grandmaster of the Heaven One Sect, Dao name Tian Yunzi." He was very arrogant and reported his name.

Li Yi said: "When I destroyed the Heaven One Sect, you didn't appear. I don't know which corner you hid in to survive. Today, you, a fish that slipped through the net, dare to show your face. Stop the nonsense, watch me slay you."

He grabbed with his palm, and a long spear carved from divine jade appeared in his hand.

The magic power of one hundred and five acupoints moved in unison, and the power of the Tianyue Yao Wang weapon was instantly unleashed. Terrifying murderous intent filled the sky, as if it were about to crush this world.

Suddenly.

The Tianyue Yao Wang weapon destroyed everything, slashing out a divine light, which instantly enveloped the six Great Perfection cultivation experts.

One against six?

"How bold."

"Arrogant."

Jiang Chengzi, Tian Yunzi, and the other Great Perfection cultivation experts shouted angrily, never expecting that this guy who called himself Tai Yi Heavenly Venerable would hold them in such low regard.

"Dividing the River into Land."

"Overturning Rivers and Seas."

"Calling Wind and Rain."

"..."

The six Great Perfection experts shouted and cursed, but the strike Li Yi slashed out was truly terrifying. If it were any one of them, they would definitely not be able to withstand it and would die from a single strike.

So they had to join forces to fight the enemy, preferably forcing the person back to gain more time. Therefore, they did not hold back, nor were they stingy with their precious magic power, unleashing their strongest strike.

But the next moment.

Jiang Chengzi, who unleashed the Daoist art of Dividing the River into Land, had his face change drastically. His attack only tore through that divine light for less than a hundred zhang before it came to an abrupt end. The aftermath spread like a tide, almost swallowing him whole.

"How is this person's magic power so vigorous?" Jiang Chengzi let out a few screams, only then discovering the wrong place.

The other Great Perfection fellow Daoists also discovered this through the exchange, and were instantly terrified.

The opponent's magic power was simply terrifyingly vigorous, making the power of the original strike even more terrifying. With the six of them joining forces, let alone forcing the opponent back, it would be good enough to protect themselves.

"Hateful, if not for the Dharma-Ending era, and our state not returning to its peak, how would we be humiliated by people from the outside world."

They were resentful in their hearts, but they did not dare to be arrogant anymore, gathering together one after another, relying on each other's strength to wear down the opponent's strike.

However, the combat opportunity created by Li Yi was so perfect that Xuan Yuezi could not fail to grasp it.

Above the nine heavens, a bright moon shone.

At this moment, the Tianyue Yao Wang weapon in Xuan Yuezi's hand erupted with equally terrifying power, falling from the sky in one strike, heading straight for the few people.

"Xuan Yuezi, you actually ambushed us. Fellow Daoists, don't hold back, otherwise everyone will perish here."

Jiang Chengzi, Tian Yunzi, and the others could only grit their teeth and roar. Above their heads, a flower of magic power burned, and crystal-clear leaves began to fall, which meant they had fallen from the Great Perfection realm to the Three-Flower realm.

But in a short period of time, they could erupt with strength comparable to their peak state.

This was a desperate means, and they dared not use it unless it was a life-and-death crisis.

Boom!

The power of the two Tianyue Yao Wang weapons intertwined, and the six Great Perfection experts burned their Dao flowers, unleashing a peak strike once again. Under the collision of power, the void tore, the world swayed, and even the earth beneath their feet shook violently.

Fortunately, this was in the high sky; if it had fallen on the ground, it would definitely have permanently changed the landscape of a continent, and might even have triggered a world-destroying natural disaster.

And in the agitation of the aftermath.

Six disheveled figures fell out. Although their lives were safe, they were all injured, their Dao robes were torn, their faces were covered in dust, and they were in a sorry state. After all, the eruption of two Tianyue Yao Wang weapons was too terrifying.

And in a one-on-one situation, even in their peak state, they would be slain. At this moment, being able to resist these two strikes by joining forces and surviving safely was already very good.

"Tai Yi, they just burned their Dao flowers to exchange for peak strength, but their realm and magic power will fall at a very fast speed." Xuan Yuezi saw this scene and said immediately.

"It's just drinking poison to quench thirst. Without the realm of the Great Perfection, they will die faster. Immortal Maiden, help me guard the flank, I will go and slay these few people." Li Yi swept his cold gaze, his feet moved, and holding the divine jade spear, he instantly killed his way out.

Xuan Yuezi was not very good at fighting, but he was different. Since he stepped into cultivation, he had fought countless battles along the way. Even if it was one against six, he had the confidence to win.

After all, as an evolutionist who practiced multiple methods, he was least afraid of fighting in the same realm. ===== CHAPTER 834 =====
