Chapter 450

Not giving Tongtian the slightest chance to react.

The pressure was also growing greater and greater.

At the core of the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array,

the Saint battle began a new phase.

The power was more than double what it had been just moments ago.

If not for the isolation of the array, the entire Primordial World would likely have been affected.

However.

Even so, various strange phenomena began to occur in the outside world.

A stern aura permeated the entire Primordial World.

It felt as if the world were about to be destroyed in the next moment.

Countless people with weak strength were trembling in fear, their faces deathly pale.

Even the great quasi-saint powers wore grave expressions,

preparing at any moment to defend against the even more terrifying catastrophe to come.

The original Lich War had only reached the quasi-saint level.

But now?

This was a true Saint battle.

Even the mere leakage of a trace of the aftermath was this terrifying.

If the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array were to disappear next, wouldn't the Primordial World shatter?

In an instant,

numerous quasi-saint powers and Great Luo Jinxian turned their gazes toward the Immortal-Slaying Sword Array,

hoping to obtain the latest news at any time.

They could then make preparations as quickly as possible.

As for stopping the Saint battle?

One could only laugh at that.

All beneath the Saints are ants.

Even a late-stage quasi-saint is nothing more than an existence that can be crushed at will.

At such a juncture, who would dare to be presumptuous?!

Within the gate of the Immortal-Slaughtering Sword Array.

Holy Mother Jin Ling used her Four-Image Pagoda and Dragon-Tiger Ruyi to continuously attack Grand Master Xuandu.

However, because of the merit treasure, the Exquisite Pagoda,

she could not even break through his defense.

Conversely, Grand Master Xuandu's attacks kept forcing Holy Mother Jin Ling to retreat step by step.

If it were only this, it would be nothing.

Holy Mother Jin Ling would not be in any danger.

But, beside Xuandu, there were two other quasi-saints recruited by Yuanshi, restraining and attacking from the side.

If not for Jin Ling having some tricks up her sleeve, she would have already been defeated and killed on the spot.

However.

While Holy Mother Jin Ling could barely save her own life, the other Jie Sect disciples were not so lucky.

Under the continuous attacks of the Ren Sect disciples—

of course,

there was also the bloody slaughter by the Chan Sect—

the Jie Sect disciples were either placed on the list or sent into reincarnation.

Of those who remained alive, barely one in ten survived.

Laozi of the Ren Sect had prepared even more than imagined.

From the very beginning, Laozi had aimed to wipe out this portion of the Jie Sect disciples.

Laozi had previously always acted like a peacemaker.

Now, in the tribulation, Laozi's methods were far more ruthless than Yuanshi Tianzun's.

Seeing this, Sect Leader Tongtian was gnashing his teeth in hatred.

So, he finally stopped pretending?

"Fellow Daoist Jin Ling, now that you have no power to resist, it seems your fate has run out. It is time for this poor Daoist to send you to the list!"

"But fortunately, you can still be canonized in the Heavenly Court in the future, so it doesn't count as a true death."

"Fellow Daoist Jin Ling need not feel too regretful!"

Looking at Xuandu's indifferent tone, Holy Mother Jin Ling felt extreme disgust in her heart.

Compared to the hypocrisy and treachery of the Chan Sect, he was not a whit behind.

It seemed this Xuandu had learned everything from Laozi to a T.

It was truly infuriating to behold.

Indeed, as a Jie Sect disciple, she would always find the Chan Sect and Ren Sect disciples unpleasant to look at!

It was just a pity that she hadn't managed to drag an enemy down with her in death.

This made her feel very regretful.

As for Xuandu's words, they were simply meant to disgust people.

She couldn't even be bothered to respond!

Against Chan Sect disciples, she might still have an interest in trading blows or even hurling insults.

But toward Ren Sect disciples, she was too lazy to speak.

Half a sentence is too many when you don't see eye to eye.

No matter how much is said, it is all nonsense.

Boom!

A bolt of Taiqing Divine Lightning from Xuandu was about to strike Holy Mother Jin Ling.

The next moment, a golden protective barrier blocked the front,

stopping the attack of the Taiqing Divine Lightning.

At the same time, a terrifying figure appeared.

"Fellow Daoist Xuandu, this time you have gone a bit too far!"

"Fellow Daoist Hongxuan?!"

Seeing that it was Hongxuan who had appeared, Xuandu was both surprised and somewhat unsurprised.

"Fellow Daoist Hongxuan, we are currently in the midst of the tribulation; everyone is unable to act according to their own will!"

"Since Fellow Daoist Jin Ling has already entered the tribulation, she should have been mentally prepared to die and be placed on the list."

"Fellow Daoist Xuandu, we are both sensible people; there is no need to speak such high-sounding words."

"Ultimately, we must have a bout! Please!"

Hongxuan did not waste words and went straight to the point.

"Very well, for a long time, this poor Daoist has wanted to discuss the Dao with Fellow Daoist Hongxuan; now the opportunity has come!"

"Fellow Daoist, you need not hold back!"

Xuandu's tone was very bold.

Hearing this, Hongxuan felt a wave of disdain.

If he didn't hold back, he could absolutely kill Xuandu in one move, or even reduce him to ashes, not even leaving him the chance to be placed on the list.

However, if he truly did that, it would completely enrage Laozi.

The timing was not yet right.

This was not yet the moment for him to formally break with Laozi.

Let Sect Leader Tongtian hold the line for a few more days.

As for Xuandu, his death penalty could be waived, but he must endure some living punishment.

And the two quasi-saints on the side. ===== CHAPTER 451 =====
