Chapter 197

Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Laozi's eyes.

Although it was a question, in reality, he already had the answer in his heart.

Heavenly Dao!

Hongjun!

Being able to make these Demon Path cultivators invade the Great Desolation, and even have a Demon Path Saint enter the Great Desolation, could only be achieved with the Heavenly Dao's permission, or led by Hongjun.

Otherwise, even with the Demon Path's blessing, it would be impossible to cause trouble under the nose of the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun, and even have a living Demon Path Saint appear like this. If this were in the past, he would definitely have been targeted by the Heavenly Dao, and the Six Sages would have been summoned to annihilate him.

But what about now?

This guy has appeared for such a long time, and Hongjun hasn't sent any information. This already explains the problem.

"It seems that Fellow Daoist doesn't intend to cooperate."

"Do you know what refusing me means, and what you will encounter!"

Frowning, the Demon Path Saint looked at Laozi deeply.

To be honest, he was somewhat surprised and unexpected. After all, the existence of this Half-step Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal was a threat to them.

He himself was fine, belonging to the Demon Path and not in the Great Desolation, but Laozi and the others were Great Desolate Saints. Once the Xuangui succeeded, the conflict of interest between the two sides would definitely be huge.

Precisely because of this, he invited Laozi to act together.

After all, this concerned his own interests, and it was carried out with the permission of the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun. He didn't believe Laozi couldn't see it!

But what about now?

Laozi actually refused. This was simply inconceivable, simply unbelievable!

"Phew~"

"Fortunately, Grandmaster didn't agree!"

Lin Fan in the distance also breathed a sigh of relief. If Laozi had agreed, the two of them joining forces might really have been able to shake the Zhu Xian Sword Formation.

Even if it couldn't be destroyed, it would disturb Tongtian Jiaozhu's action inside, disturbing the opportunity for him to help the Xuangui change his fate against the heavens.

Once the Xuangui failed.

That would mean that a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal would basically be impossible to appear in the Great Desolation. Without the first person to eat the crab, they, the latecomers, would also be impossible to succeed.

How the Heavenly Dao and Hongjun targeted the Xuangui, they would target those who walked this path in the future.

Conversely, once the Xuangui succeeded.

That would announce that such rules had been broken. How the Xuangui would be for now, let's not mention it, at least they, the latecomers, would have hope and possibility to go further.

"Hehe~"

With a cold laugh, Laozi naturally knew what it meant.

But knowing was knowing, he had no intention of moving aside.

His mind moved, and the moment the flat carrying pole in his hand was raised, it transformed into a precious sword with cold light at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Obviously, Laozi was already prepared for battle at this moment, and didn't even intend to use any Wuwei Dao or any other means, but to use the Sword Dao, which was famous for slaughter, to deal with this Demon Path Saint.

Holding the sword and locking onto the Demon Path Saint, Laozi spoke slowly: "This seat is the head of the Three Pure Ones, and even the head of the Six Sages. How could I cooperate with a guy like you who hides his head and shows his tail?"

"Since ancient times, Dao and Demon have not stood together. How could I cooperate with a mere demon like you!"

"Even if you are a Saint, so what? In my eyes, you have no status at all!"

Once these words were spoken, the whole scene was silent.

The Demon Path Saint's fist clenched directly. His eyes, which were already somewhat reddish, became blood-red at this moment. Staring fixedly at Laozi, he gritted his teeth and said: "A good head of the Three Pure Ones, a good head of the Six Sages, it is this seat who underestimated you!"

"Since you insist on persisting, then this seat will not be polite to you anymore."

"This matter today, this seat absolutely will not allow it to succeed. Get out of the way~"

While speaking, the Demon Path Saint took action fiercely.

Raising his hand and waving, boundless demonic energy rolled, like huge waves sweeping towards where Laozi was.

"Well come!"

Seeing this situation, fighting intent shot out from Laozi's eyes, and with a loud shout, he held the sword and slashed without hesitation.

In an instant, terrifying Taiqing Sword Qi ravaged out.

In just a moment, the Sword Qi shot straight into the nine heavens, as if there were dozens of worlds carried within it. In just one encounter, it cut through the sweeping demonic energy.

Immediately after, the Sword Qi carrying the will of the Sword World struck directly towards the area where the Demon Path Saint was. Along the way, space twisted, time slowed down, and the power of one strike could be called world-destroying.

"Damn it~"

As the crisis arrived, the Demon Path Saint felt Laozi's power at the first moment, and knew more clearly that the gap between himself and him was not small.

Not caring about anything else, the Demon Path Saint beckoned, and a stick that was pitch-black as ink, murderous, and covered in sinister demonic energy appeared in his hand.

"Break for me~"

With a low roar, the Demon Path Saint jumped up with the stick and smashed it fiercely at the Taiqing Sword Qi.

The next second, the Sword Qi exploded.

The will of the Sword World collided with his body. The Demon Path Saint's clothes rustled, and the cloak covering his face was also cut open at this moment, revealing his face.

That was a figure with a burly build, pale skin, purple hair and black eyes, a cold expression, and full of killing intent.

The most important thing is that this guy was not a complete human form. On both sides of his cheeks, purple monkey fur appeared, and even in the area behind him, there was a purple tail swinging casually.

Crack—

The sound of shattering rang out, and the Taiqing Sword Qi completely collapsed.

The Demon Path Saint was unforgiving, holding the stick and killing directly towards where Laozi was.

"Fight~"

Seeing this, Laozi was not afraid, and raised his sword to meet him without hesitation.

The next second, the two figures fought together in mid-air.

Bang bang bang—

Clang clang clang—

For a time, muffled sounds and metal collision sounds rang out continuously.

The battle between Laozi and the Demon Path Saint completely kicked off. As the two sides went back and forth, Sword Qi ravaged, stick shadows filled the sky, and the terrifying aftermath of the battle directly caused the entire area at the end of the North Sea to start shaking rapidly, and even the North Sea area was stirred up with huge waves spreading continuously.

"What a powerful Demon Path Saint!"

"Actually able to fight with the Taiqing Saint like this!"

"More than that, that guy doesn't look simple at all. Transformed from a monkey-like living being, his combat power is extraordinary!"

"Did you see that stick? It's definitely not an ordinary object. It even gives me the feeling that it has surpassed the existence of a Top-Grade Innate Spiritual Treasure, but it hasn't reached the level of an Innate Supreme Treasure yet!"

"..."

In an instant, the Innate Gods in the Mount Buzhou area were boiling.

Looking at the two figures fighting continuously, while discussing, their eyes were filled with heat, yearning, and worship.

Saint!

This is the battle of a Saint.

This is the power of a Saint. Every move and every style is simplified, returning to the ordinary.

It looks like a simple strike, but the power, laws, and magic power carried within it are so strong that even an ordinary Quasi-Saint Perfection couldn't resist it. Even a powerhouse at the Quasi-Saint Peak level wouldn't dare to say they had the certainty of being able to block it without damage!
