Chapter 970

This sentence, low and deep like heavenly thunder, shook the souls of everyone present.

!

As it spread, this tall figure that had descended from the firmament to appear before Yuedong and Lanyao began walking step by step toward Xu Qing and Chen Erniu!

The footsteps were firm and powerful, each one seeming to tread upon their heartbeats, the sense of oppression intense!

As he walked, the nine great worlds existing across his shoulders, chest, abdomen, legs, and the top of his head were all shining with brilliant light, surging with thick, rich life force!

The might of the nine worlds caused the firmament to change color!

A terrifying pressure descended, shaking the earth with a boom. Amidst this monstrous momentum and this dreadful storm, this person was imprinted ever more clearly into the eyes of Xu Qing and Chen Erniu!

His body was over eight feet tall, his physique burly, standing like a towering mountain upon the wind-and-rain-battered battlefield!

His skin appeared dark, seemingly from years of exposure to wind and sun, as if polished by time into a hard, black boulder!

His face was resolute and profound; beneath a pair of thick brows, his eyes were deep as stars, flashing with a sharp and firm light!

Especially where his gaze fell, it was as if a thousand cavalry were galloping, as if beacon

fires were connecting the heavens, as if mountains and rivers were shattering!

Most brilliant of all was the battle armor draped over his body; this armor was clearly crafted by a master artisan, every part of it flashing with cold light!

The armor was also inlaid with various gems, which, under the sunlight, flashed with blinding radiance, reflecting across his entire body and setting him off like a star!

Xu Qing gazed at this person, his own face expressionless, his heart without a single ripple; at this moment, he was dominated by divinity!

As for Chen Erniu, he was focused on sizing up the other party's armor, a hint of sourness appearing in his eyes as he let out a cold snort!

"Growing a look of invincibility, are you a worm wearing a shell, thinking you're a turtle? State your identity, your Uncle Niu does not kill nameless nobodies."

That tall figure's gaze was icy, his entire body's momentum roaring; as he walked, he spoke indifferently!

"Moyu Sacred Land, tenth disciple under the Great Emperor Mingyan, Lu Lingzi!"

The moment the words were spoken, his figure had already reached the front of Xu Qing and Chen Erniu, his rough and powerful right hand, as if capable of grasping the entire world, suddenly pressing down toward the two!

Xu Qing's entire body's divine source erupted, divine authority shrouding them; Chen Erniu's blue light shone, ice-sealing power erupting!

An instant confrontation!

Amidst the boom, Xu Qing's whole body shook; relying on his physical body's protection, he was unharmed, but the impact from this Lu Lingzi was still

enough to make him retreat!

But soon, Xu Qing charged out again, wiping away the power of authority as it dissipated, with even more misfortune and the Purple Moon rising, searching for the other party's inner flaws to breed poison prohibitions!

As for Chen Erniu, his protection was not as good as Xu Qing's; facing the palm of the Nine Worlds Essence God, his body exploded directly, turning into a blood mist that rolled backward, only to rapidly reform, his voice ringing out!

"Quite a lot of strength, but what did your words just now mean? Which one is the Dao companion you spoke of? Could it be that both of these broads are your Dao companions?"

"Or is it that one is a Dao companion, and one is a head?"

As the voice echoed, Chen Erniu also lunged again, transforming into countless blue worms, opening their mouths wide to spit out cold air!

Coordinating with Xu Qing, one ice-sealing, one bombarding!

But the power of the nine worlds exceeded every divine creature Xu Qing had faced before!

This was an existence that was only one step away from becoming a Sovereign!

Even though Xu Qing was extraordinary and Chen Erniu was bizarre, the absolute difference in strength still caused all their various methods to collapse!

Lu Lingzi didn't even use a divine ability, relying only on the added power of the nine great worlds to blast everything away with a single punch!

Heaven and earth roared, Xu Qing retreated again, and Chen Erniu collapsed once more!

Yet Chen Erniu's voice continued!

"That's not right, how did your head control your Dao companion into a puppet?"

"Hey, little A-Qing, I think I've discovered some

secret."

"The three of them really know how to play, playing so excitingly..."

As Chen Erniu spoke, his body swayed, his right hand lifting to tear open his own chest, grabbing his own heart and squeezing it fiercely!

His heart exploded directly; bizarrely, Lu Lingzi also paused his steps, a booming sound coming from his chest,

as if Chen Erniu's act of crushing his own heart had influenced him!

"Cough, I say, is the game you three are playing short of people? I'm thinking of participating, look at my heart, isn't it big and robust!"

Chen Erniu licked his lips, looking very interested.

It must be said, Chen Erniu was a

master at ruining the atmosphere of a battlefield!

Originally, Lu Lingzi's momentum was monstrous, but as Chen Erniu's words spread, they actually mixed in other flavors, making Yuedong's expression extremely ugly!

As for Lu Lingzi, the cold light in his eyes grew thicker, his left hand lifting to suddenly press on the center of his brow!

Immediately, a crack split open at the center of his brow, and a scarlet blood eye actually grew out.

Once this eye appeared, a sense of authority suddenly rose!

It could be seen that within this blood eye, there were traces of Dao marks permeating!

It wasn't just Xu Qing and the Prince of the Festival Moon Great Domain and others who could seize authority ahead of time before ascending to Sovereign!

This tenth disciple of the Great Emperor Mingyan had also obtained authority while at the Essence God level!

At this moment, as the blood eye shone, his figure on the battlefield was like a wild wind, roaring and erupting, sweeping through everything, staining the world, making the firmament dim and the earth dark!

Only the wind was everything here!

That was the authority of wind!

Wherever it passed, the void was torn, cracks appeared in the sky, glaciers were rolled up on the earth, and Xu Qing and Chen Erniu were like kites with broken strings, retreating rapidly in the storm!

Chen Erniu's body collapsed again and again, only to reform again and again, shouting wildly!

"Little A-Qing, use the big move."

Here, a flash of strange light crossed Xu Qing's calm eyes; while retreating, he gave Lu Lingzi a meaningful look, then lifted his right hand and pointed at the firmament!

The firmament changed color, light flowed, and the Sacred Heaven Treasure Pagoda descended suddenly within the storm, standing tall in mid-air regardless of how the storm swept!

Xu Qing did not hesitate at all, stepping directly into the pagoda!

Chen Erniu was stunned, but his reaction was also extremely fast, flying in in an instant!

In the blink of an eye, within the storm, the pagoda roared, like a boulder, not shaken in the slightest!

This scene made Lu Lingzi frown slightly!

And inside the pagoda, Chen Erniu stood beside Xu Qing, unable to stop himself from speaking!

"Little A-Qing, the big move I meant wasn't this, it was the Empress's jade slip!"

Xu Qing turned a deaf ear, looking at Lu Lingzi outside the pagoda, lost in thought!

In his exchange with this Great Emperor's disciple just now, he had felt a trace of extremely faint divine fire fluctuation!

This fluctuation was too hidden; in a normal state, it would be impossible to detect. Xu Qing wasn't sensing it with his mind, but rather his flesh was sensing the divine fire through instinct!

This was related to him being dominated by divinity at this moment and his special physical body

!

If not for this, he feared even he would have been unable to detect it!

As he pondered, Chen Erniu beside him, seeing Xu Qing ignoring him, couldn't help but mutter a few words!

"I hate little A-Qing in this state the most, completely dominated by divinity, not respecting the old or loving the young at all."

"However, why does he keep staring at that Lu Lingzi? Could it be that he discovered some secret?"

Chen Erniu narrowed his eyes, also looking over, observing carefully, trying to find clues!

And at this moment, outside the pagoda's bubble, that Great Emperor's disciple Lu Lingzi was trying to rely on the power of authority to bombard the pagoda!

The storm roared, sweeping and howling, but for the pagoda floating in mid-air, the effect was minimal!

Seeing this, the Great Emperor's disciple stopped, instead looking at Xu Qing through the bubble, then waving his hand!

Immediately, a sea of fire appeared from the wind, borrowing the wind's power to shroud the pagoda, and began refining!

After doing this, he ignored the pagoda, instead turning and stepping onto the earth, before Yuedong!

Compared to his tall figure, Yuedong appeared very delicate, but before Lu Lingzi could speak, Yuedong had already spoken!

"Deal with these two first."

Lu Lingzi's expression remained as usual, shaking his head slightly!

"There's no time!"

As he spoke, his gaze fell on the unconscious Lanyao beside

them!

"Solve our matters first. As for that human, relying on an ancient treasure, although he avoided my authority, he has also trapped himself

to death, no need to worry about him for now!"

"After we finish our business, they won't be able to run!"

"Now, undo Lanyao's emotion technique."

Lu Lingzi's tone allowed no questioning!

Yuedong was somewhat unwilling, but sensing Lu Lingzi's determination, she was silent for a few breaths, reluctantly agreeing, and pointing a finger at Lanyao!

Immediately, within the threads of fate on Lanyao's body, the woven face of Yuedong rapidly dimmed, finally dissipating, causing Lanyao's emotions to return to normal!

Her body trembled at this moment, slowly opening her eyes!

Her phoenix eyes were first blank, then rapidly cleared. The moment she saw Yuedong and Lu Lingzi before her, her face turned pale instantly, and everything since arriving in Wanggu surfaced in her heart!

That experience of having her emotions controlled, recalled in this clear state, immediately revealed the clues.

Thus, she stared at Yuedong, speaking with venom.

"Yuedong, since we have known each other, I have treated you well, viewing you as a bosom friend, yet you actually used this vicious forbidden technique on me."

Yuedong's gaze was cold, responding indifferently!

"Although we are bosom friends, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being born into a Great Emperor family with pure bloodlines, while I am just a small person who has to rely on myself to fight for everything!"

"In this world, the weak are prey to the strong, so I want to go further!"

"

Lanyao's breathing grew rapid upon hearing this, then she looked toward her Dao companion, Lu Lingzi!

Lu Lingzi's gaze was gentle, looking at Lanyao, speaking softly!

"Don't be anxious, we have been Dao companions for a time, I will tell you, and with your intelligence, you should have guessed it!"

"Lanyao, as a Great Emperor's disciple, I consider my aptitude to suppress others by far

, but hindered by my bloodline, I cannot comprehend the core inheritance; wanting to ascend to Sovereign is a distant prospect!"

"

I hope you can help me, to fuse your bloodline with mine, letting me comprehend the Great Emperor's inheritance technique in place of your family!"

"And now that Master is in this state, I imagine even if he knew, he would tacitly approve!"

"But your family is powerful after all, so!!! I had Yuedong approach you, luring you out of the Sacred Land, so that she could

control your emotions here, and then at a suitable moment, I would fuse!"

"That is how it is!"

The moment Lu Lingzi finished speaking, the venom in Lanyao's eyes grew thicker, her expression tragic, and just as she was about to say something, at this moment, inside the firmament pagoda, Chen Erniu, who had witnessed this scene with his own eyes, widened his eyes, slapped his thigh, and couldn't help but let out a loud exclamation of wonder!

"My god, do people in the Sacred Land know how to play like this?"

Chen Erniu's eyes were bright, looking as if his horizons had been broadened!

"But why do I feel like the plot is going to have a twist?"

The moment Chen Erniu's cheap voice came out, Yuedong, Lanyao, and Lu Lingzi all had their expressions change imperceptibly!
