Chapter 159: Di Jun and Taiyi Enter the Consciousness Space
Taiyi was just about to rush forward, but his eyes narrowed, and he gazed ahead in shock and suspicion.
Through the figure of Tian Yuan, he saw Mysterious Yellow Qi gushing out, filling his entire field of vision, echoing with a sound like thunder.
Immediately following that, a powerful and vigorous heartbeat came, as if the space before him were vibrating, causing even him to tremble slightly.
And around the passage, dense, ear-piercing screams rang out, only to cease abruptly in an instant.
Taiyi did not know what had happened, but he was very clear that time waited for no one.
The most urgent matter now was to rescue the ten Crown Princes; otherwise, those strange stone men would swarm over again.
Facing Tian Yuan, who stood ahead, he summoned the Chaos Bell and struck it toward Tian Yuan.
After clashing with those stone men, Taiyi understood that with his current strength, it would likely be difficult to kill Tian Yuan, but it would be enough if he could just rescue his ten nephews.
Yet, just as the Chaos Bell was unleashed, a powerful aura surged from Tian Yuan's body.
A breakthrough! Tian Yuan had actually broken through at this moment, stepping into the Peak Primordial Golden Immortal realm.
Taiyi was furious, but fortunately, the Chaos Bell successfully struck Tian Yuan, smashing his figure into the Consciousness Space.
Taiyi did not hesitate in the slightest; he zipped through the passage, darted into the Consciousness Space, and fled toward the Southern Land where flames reached the sky.
In that direction, he clearly felt the aura of the ten Little Golden Crows.
The next second, a figure blocked his path—it was that stone man, Tian Yuan.
With a "clang," a deep bell toll echoed; both figures flew backward, stopping simultaneously in mid-air.
Having taken a strike from the Chaos Bell head-on, Tian Yuan seemed to have no discomfort at all; he was indeed the same as those stone men.
At this moment, the other party's expression was excited, and a pair of eyes stared at him intensely.
Feeling the heat in Tian Yuan's eyes, Taiyi frowned involuntarily.
"Tian Yuan! What exactly are you trying to do?" Taiyi said with a sunken face, his expression extremely grave.
Tian Yuan's strength exceeded his imagination, and more importantly, in this space, he felt an inexplicable energy circling around him.
That aura was exactly the same as the Sun Star Will, making him very wary.
The fact that Tian Yuan could take his Chaos Bell strike head-on without issue definitely had an inseparable connection to that will.
Taiyi knew that this was Tian Yuan's home turf, and the strength the opponent could exert would only be greater.
At this moment, Taiyi was deeply puzzled; both were communicating with the will, so why could Tian Yuan achieve such a terrifying result? Tian Yuan ignored him, his eyes looking excitedly above Donghuang Taiyi.
Above the opponent's head, a brilliant, crimson pillar of energy rose, pouring into the place where the Sun Star manifested.
It was just as he had thought: the manifestation of the Sun Star was entirely on the two Demon Emperors, and the effect far exceeded that of the ten Little Golden Crows.
When the Demon Court broke open the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space, Tian Yuan had already thought of "luring the enemy into the trap."
The only thing that puzzled Tian Yuan was that Taiyi had merely accelerated the manifestation of the Sun Star and had not activated the Heavenly Dao Will.
Moreover, Taiyi, standing in the air, had not noticed the changes above his own head.
Instead, on the passage interwoven with starlight, the Heavenly Dao Will was still connected to Mount Buzhou.
Thinking about this, a thought flashed through Tian Yuan's mind.
Di Jun, who was being besieged by numerous stone men at the summit of Mount Buzhou, suddenly looked blank, his eyes filled with astonishment.
The many stone men that had been surging and recklessly pouncing just a moment ago had actually vanished in an instant.
They did not flee into the starlight-interwoven passage, but instead jumped onto Mount Buzhou, hopping away until they disappeared, completely ignoring him.
What were these stone men doing? Although extremely puzzled, after a brief moment of shock, Di Jun immediately fled toward that passage.
He did not know what Tian Yuan wanted to do, but Di Jun was very clear about his own goal: to rescue the ten Little Golden Crows and Xihe.
With a "whoosh," Di Jun's figure disappeared into the passage.
Above the Starry Sky, the crowd of the Demon Court felt joy, confusion, and shock.
Demon Master Kunpeng, however, stood dazed in the air, the Star Banner in his hand ceasing its swaying. When he had just seen Hongyun appear to block Donghuang Taiyi, his heart had been so excited.
With Taiyi's strength greatly increased and the added support of the Zhou Tian Star Formation, he would surely be able to capture that Hongyun; he had even imagined the scene of himself obtaining the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
Who would have thought that when faced with Taiyi's strike from the Chaos Bell, Hongyun would actually laugh out loud and fly away.
At this moment, Kunpeng knew that he had completely said goodbye to the Hongmeng Purple Qi.
If even the Chaos Bell could be blocked, what chance would he have in the future? Beside him, Baize frowned, gazing suspiciously at the brilliant passage.
The Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space was too mysterious, and the departure of those stone men was somewhat eerie. He had wanted to call out to the Demon Emperor, but the other party's speed was too fast, and in the blink of an eye, they had disappeared at the summit of Mount Buzhou.
The two Demon Emperors were the backbone of the Demon Court; now that they had both entered that space, he was somewhat worried.
"Pass down the order: exert full power to drive the Zhou Tian Star Formation to assist the Demon Emperors!" Baize commanded toward his surroundings.
He had always been the one presiding over the drills of the Zhou Tian Star Formation, and Baize was very clear about the power of this array.
Yet even so, they had not been able to take down Tian Yuan.
The might of Mount Buzhou had instead become even stronger; it was truly inconceivable.
The many Demon Saints and Demon Gods around naturally responded loudly, and as they waved the Star Banners in their hands, the billions of stars above the Primordial Starry Sky flickered in unison.
Rich starlight poured down, landing on those Star Banners.
They connected into one, transforming into falling stars. The stars gradually grew larger, crashing onto Mount Buzhou with a boom.
The bursting starlight had completely shrouded Mount Buzhou, and the scene inside could no longer be seen.
In the void outside Mount Buzhou, Dijiang looked at the stone men who had recovered as before, his expression very ugly.
His violent power had smashed the fellows one by one, but after the stone men fled toward Mount Buzhou, they immediately pounced back, full of vigor.
"Damn it! Damn it! I don't believe you can recover infinitely!"
Dijiang let out a roar, but before he could rush out, he saw Mount Buzhou shake, a rolling might venting out, and the mountain body began to expand rapidly.
Under the siege of the Demon Court's array, not only was Mount Buzhou unaffected, but it had actually grown stronger?
Dijiang was angry and roaring, extremely unwilling, but he could only vent this rage on the stone men before him.
With constant "bang, bang, bang" sounds, not a single stone man could withstand his offensive.
Yet the next second, Dijiang was stunned.
From the void before his eyes, one figure after another hopped and skipped out.
Stone men, they were all stone men, numbering in the thousands, all of them at the late stage of Hunyuan Golden Immortal.
These stone men had previously been ganging up on the Demon Emperor, but now they were all pouncing toward him.
Greatly alarmed, Dijiang hurriedly looked toward Mount Buzhou, but because of the stars constantly falling from the sky, he could no longer sense the situation inside.
As the leader of the twelve Ancestral Witch, he naturally did not fear the stone men, but these stone men were truly too bizarre.
More crucially, their original plan had been to fish in troubled waters, but now they had become the main force.
Cursing under his breath, Dijiang was instantly surrounded by the dense swarm of stone men, making it impossible for him to approach Mount Buzhou.
Glancing toward the distance, Dijiang's heart sank even further.
Besides the stone men rushing toward him, quite a few were also surging toward Xuanming and the others.
He, at the Peak Primordial Golden Immortal, had nothing to fear, but Xuanming and the others certainly could not withstand so many stone men.
"What have those two fellows Di Jun and Taiyi gone off to do?" Dijiang roared.
The Array in the sky remained, so clearly Di Jun and Taiyi were unharmed; thus, it was only possible that they had escaped into the Buzhou Mountain Consciousness Space.
But why did these stone men not chase them inside, instead focusing their efforts on them?
