Chapter 160: Jieyin Calms the Saint War! Lu Yun Returns to the Primordial Land!

Sensing the change in the aura on Taiyi, both Lu Yun and Houtu had their expressions shift.

They knew that Taiyi was about to risk his life.

Immediately, they also unhesitatingly channeled the power within their bodies, exerting their full strength to reinforce the Map of Mountains and Rivers, attempting to completely suppress Taiyi right there.

"Treasure, please turn around!"

Lu Yun directly activated the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, launching a fierce attack toward Taiyi!

"Damn it!"

Taiyi roared in fury, yet he had no choice but to immediately stop burning his origin, turning instead to retreat and using the Eastern Emperor Bell to block the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife.

He never imagined that the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife he took such pride in would one day be used against him.

Of course, it was fortunate that he understood the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, so Lu Yun was unable to cause him any real harm with it.

However, Lu Yun had indeed never intended to kill Taiyi with the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife; he simply wanted to use it to obstruct the opponent and disgust him at the same time.

"Boom—"

Houtu activated Dharma Heaven and Earth, unleashing her Earth Great Dao Supernatural Power, continuously launching attacks at Taiyi, fully venting all the frustration from being injured by Taiyi earlier.

Lu Yun focused on using the Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife, the Nine-Nine Soul-Scattering Gourd, and the Water Spirit Bead, coordinating with the Map of Mountains and Rivers to suppress Taiyi.

Meanwhile, the Karma Fire Red Lotus remained beneath him, forming a solid defense for him and blocking Taiyi's repeated assaults.

What made Taiyi even more depressed was that Lu Yun seemed to feel this Karma Fire Red Lotus defense was not enough, and even added the towering Heavenly Dao Merit Golden Light onto it, instantly making the defense of the Karma Fire Red Lotus even more powerful, such that even the Eastern Emperor Bell could not break through it for a time!

Inside the live broadcast room, the members of the Transmigration Chat Group watched the intense collision, each one shouting that it was exhilarating.

"Big Brother Lu Yun is mighty and domineering!"

"Big Brother Lu Yun 666!"

"Ancestral Witch Houtu's strength is also powerful!"

"I've learned something new! Is this the battle level of a Quasi-Saint?"

"To think that this Eastern Emperor Taiyi would be forced to such a degree!"

The more Taiyi fought, the more frustrated he felt, while the more Lu Yun fought, the more familiar he became with his current power.

He and Houtu coordinated with increasing proficiency, to the point that Taiyi's situation became increasingly dire.

However, just at this moment, a sudden change occurred! "Hum!"

Seeing that, outside the Map of Mountains and Rivers, a golden light suddenly flew in unexpectedly!

Seeing this, Houtu could not help but have her expression change: "Could this be that Di Jun? Did he rush over from the Sun Star?"

Sure enough, almost simultaneously, a golden light surged into the sky from within Taiyi's body, merging with the golden light coming from the outside, directly piercing through the blockade of the Map of Mountains and Rivers and disappearing into the starry sky.

Immediately following, Taiyi's figure also vanished, leaving behind only one sentence echoing within the Map of Mountains and Rivers.

"Lu Yun, Houtu, you wait for this Emperor; this grudge, this Emperor will definitely settle!"

Looking at the direction where Taiyi disappeared, Lu Yun and Houtu looked at each other, both feeling somewhat helpless.

They knew that Taiyi had burned his own origin power, and with Di Jun guiding him from the outside, he had forcibly broken through the blockade of the Map of Mountains and Rivers and escaped.

Although this would cost Taiyi a huge price, at least he had successfully escaped for now.

And with Taiyi's strength and means, plus the foundation of the Heavenly Court, it would not be a difficult matter for him to recover.

"What a pity, he still managed to escape."

Houtu said with some regret.

If they could have suppressed Taiyi here, it would undoubtedly have been great news for the Wu Clan.

However, the fact that just she and Lu Yun were able to force Taiyi to this point was already quite good.

Lu Yun also felt some regret, having failed to obtain another Legendary Treasure Chest.

Thinking about it, if Taiyi were so easy to kill, the system probably wouldn't have designated it as a legendary-level mission!

Thinking of this, Lu Yun smiled faintly and comforted Houtu: "It doesn't matter, he can run today but he can't run tomorrow! When we meet next time, it will be his death day!"

After speaking, he moved his mind to put away the Map of Mountains and Rivers, returned to Ziwei Star with Houtu, and their gazes looked toward the distant starry sky together.

There, a golden light was rapidly moving away, soon meeting another golden figure in the starry sky.

"Di Jun..."

A cold glint flashed in Lu Yun's eyes; this name had long been on his must-kill list in his heart.

But helplessly, he currently did not have enough ability to kill the opponent.

Houtu looked around and asked in surprise: "Why is Jieyin gone?"

Lu Yun also came back to his senses, looked around, and his gaze quickly locked onto another direction in the starry sky, where three Saints were currently dueling.

Houtu also looked toward that side, and her expression immediately sank as she cursed: "Despicable Jieyin and Zhunti!"

It turned out that at this moment, it was precisely Jieyin and Zhunti working together to fight Nuwa!

Nuwa's strength was indeed stronger than Zhunti's, but compared to Jieyin, they were evenly matched; with Jieyin and Zhunti joining forces, she was unable to hold them off.

Especially now that the Map of Mountains and Rivers had been given to Lu Yun, Nuwa's strength had decreased, making her even less of a match for the combined force of Jieyin and Zhunti.

Seeing that Nuwa was in a precarious situation, Lu Yun decisively took action.

He directly communicated with his several avatars and simultaneously contacted the Xihe sisters on the Lunar Star, asking them to assist again in launching the array that Lu Yun had previously used to attack Taiyi.

This array was created by Lu Yun's Array Dao avatar, Lu Zhen, and was simplified from the "Zhou Tian Star Formation," which could be called the "Small Zhou Tian Star Formation," possessing a portion of the characteristics of the "Zhou Tian Star Formation."

Lu Yun had Lu Zhen trigger the various main stars, while he also controlled Ziwei Star to coordinate, finally converging into a beam of starlight that headed straight for Nuwa!

What Lu Yun was doing at this moment was naturally not an attack, but rather using Star Power to reinforce Nuwa!

Even though such reinforcement could not bring a huge boost to Nuwa, it could at least serve as some defensive power for her, which could be considered as making up for a portion of the power of the original Map of Mountains and Rivers.

Furthermore, this move by Lu Yun also conveyed a message to Nuwa: that he was safe and sound, allowing Nuwa to fight without worry.

Consequently, Nuwa, who had almost been defeated by Jieyin and Zhunti, erupted with even more ferocious attacks once again.

"Jieyin, Zhunti, prepare to die!"

Nuwa let out a sharp shout, and the Red Hydrangea in her hand transformed into a streak of red light, fiercely smashing toward the two, Jieyin and Zhunti.

Seeing this, the expressions of Jieyin and Zhunti both changed slightly.

They could feel that the power of this strike from Nuwa was no small matter; even if the two of them joined forces, they might not be able to block it.

However, they were already riding a tiger and finding it hard to get off, forced to bite the bullet and engage in battle.

"Boom—!"

Three loud bangs rang out almost simultaneously, and one could see the figures of Jieyin and Zhunti both flying backward, while Nuwa's figure also recoiled, clearly having suffered no small amount of rebounding force.

The pressure erupting from both sides swept across hundreds of thousands of miles of Outer Space, shattering many small stars directly and causing many main stars to vibrate violently as well.

"So strong!"

Seeing this scene, Lu Yun was secretly shocked in his heart. He knew the strength of a Saint was formidable, but he had not expected it to be to this degree.

The fact that both sides could cause such destruction without having fully let loose meant that if they did, Outer Space might not be able to withstand the attacks!

Meanwhile, under another patch of starry sky, Di Jun and Taiyi were watching the distant battlefield with gloomy expressions.

They had originally thought they could take this opportunity to capture Houtu and Lu Yun, but they had not expected it to evolve into the current situation.

"Big Brother, should we take this opportunity to join forces and kill that Lu Yun and Houtu?"

Taiyi looked at Di Jun and asked.

After remaining silent for a while, Di Jun shook his head and said, "That Lu Yun can hide in the Mountain and River Map at any time; even if we join forces, it will be difficult to gain any advantage. Moreover, both of us are currently injured and need to heal as soon as possible, and Baize and the others cannot hold back those Ancestral Witches for much longer!"

Hearing this, Taiyi could only nod helplessly and say, "Fine! Then let them go for this time! Let's return to the Sun Star first!"

After speaking, the two transformed into two streaks of golden light and disappeared into the starry sky.

Lu Yun noticed Di Jun and Taiyi leaving and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Immediately, he turned his attention back to the battlefield of the three Saints.

It could be seen that both sides had already converged once more.

Nuwa had originally intended to launch another attack, but who would have thought that at this moment—

"All of you, stop!"

A voice suddenly entered their ears, causing their movements to pause in unison.

The three Saints, as well as Lu Yun and Houtu on Ziwei Star, all looked in the direction the voice came from, and were shocked to see Hongjun, dressed in a Daoist robe, appearing out of thin air in the starry sky.

He looked at Nuwa and the other two coldly and said, "Do you wish to destroy this Outer Space and cause the suffering of all living beings?"

Zhunti rolled his eyes and immediately said, "Master, please observe clearly; it is not that we do not know the gravity of the situation, but that Nuwa has been pestering the two of us relentlessly!"

Nuwa could not help but be furious: "It was clearly you two despicable villains who provoked me first, and now you are blaming me instead?!"

After speaking, she prepared to strike again, while Zhunti and Jieyin hurriedly assumed a defensive posture.

"Enough!"

Hongjun scolded them again, saying, "This matter ends here! If you wish to fight, you may go into the Chaos; do not affect the Great Desolation!"

As Hongjun's voice fell, the entire starry sky fell into a silence.

Whether it was Nuwa, or Jieyin and Zhunti, all were clear about Hongjun's majesty and strength.

He was their Master, the first Saint of the Great Desolation, and no one dared to disobey his words.

Although Nuwa was angry, she knew this was not the time to persist. As for entering the Chaos to fight, she would basically be unable to gain any advantage against the combined forces of Jieyin and Zhunti, so naturally, she would not do so.

"I will remember today's events!"

After taking a deep look at Jieyin and Zhunti, Nuwa's figure flashed and she headed toward Ziwei Star.

Seeing this, Jieyin and Zhunti looked at each other and also departed as streaks of golden light.

After Hongjun quelled this struggle, he merely glanced faintly at Lu Yun on Ziwei Star, and his figure then disappeared.

On Ziwei Star.

Nuwa's figure appeared before Lu Yun and Houtu.

Houtu immediately stepped forward and asked with concern, "Sister Nuwa, are you alright?"

"It is nothing!"

Nuwa shook her head gently, and then her gaze fell upon Lu Yun.

Sensing Lu Yun's solid Great Luo Golden Immortal cultivation, and noting that the aura he emitted was clearly far beyond that of an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal, she felt that her battle just now had not been in vain, and a smile appeared on her face.

She asked Lu Yun, "Now that you have successfully completed your Tribulation Transcendence Stage, what do you plan to do next?"

Lu Yun pondered for a moment and said, "I shall return to the Primordial Land! I made some arrangements previously, and they will come in handy now that I am returning! However, I am worried that someone might plot against me on the way, so I must trouble you, Goddess, to escort me!"

Nuwa nodded and said, "Then let us go! You also need to take back those incarnations of yours, right?"

Lu Yun smiled slightly and said, "It won't be that much trouble!"

As his voice fell—

"Hum!"

Nuwa and Houtu only saw several streaks of light in the starry sky breaking through the air at an astonishing speed, all converging toward Lu Yun's side.

They had thought that someone else was launching an attack on Lu Yun, but upon closer inspection, they discovered this was not the case; those streaks of light carried no sense of threat at all.

On the contrary, Lu Yun simply raised his hand and received them all into his body!

Lu Yun explained, "These incarnations of mine are somewhat special; with just a single thought, they can naturally be dispelled and return to my body, and they ignore all kinds of barriers!"

Houtu exclaimed in admiration, "Truly profound!"

Immediately, as if she had thought of something else, she said, "Now that you are safe, I must hurry to the Sun Star to help my brother and the others!"

She immediately wanted to set off for the Sun Star battlefield, but Lu Yun stopped her.

"Wait a moment!"

Lu Yun said, "I also know you need to rush back to the Sun Star, so I specifically haven't dispelled my Literature Dao avatar yet; instead, I had him bring Kunpeng back, so he can take you and ride Kunpeng back to the Sun Star together!"

Houtu then remembered that Kunpeng was currently the mount of Lu Yun's Literature Dao avatar, Lu Wen!

She said, "Kunpeng probably wouldn't be willing, right!"

Lu Yun laughed, "That's not up to him!"

Not long after, the Literature Dao avatar Lu Wen indeed arrived on Ziwei Star, stepping on Kunpeng.

Lu Wen bowed toward Lu Yun's true body, while Kunpeng stood to the side somewhat defiantly, clearly still harboring resentment over the matter of becoming Lu Wen's mount.

However, when his gaze fell upon Nuwa nearby, his pupils shrank abruptly, and he hurriedly restrained his aura, becoming much more submissive.

Lu Yun did not waste words either; he directly explained his plan to Lu Wen and then asked him to take Houtu to the Sun Star.

Lu Wen naturally had no objections, and as for Kunpeng, although he was somewhat reluctant, under the gaze of Nuwa, a Saint, and given that Lu Wen was no longer what he used to be, he naturally dared not act out.

"Thank you for your trouble!"

Houtu cupped her hands toward Lu Yun and Nuwa, then flipped over and mounted Kunpeng's back.

"Rise!"

Following Lu Wen's command, Kunpeng immediately transformed into a streak of light, carrying Houtu as he flew toward the direction of the Sun Star at extreme speed.
