Chapter 764

If possible, the Immortal God of Longevity naturally wished to unseal the Yin Yue Cave Heaven.

After all, he was still the Left State Preceptor of the Great Yuan, and did not wish to see this elite Yuan army force perish here.

"This monk believes he can fight Yan Chixia, and even unseal the Yin Yue Cave Heaven.

But the Xuanxin Sect blocks the way, so the Left State Preceptor and General Mu Huali must lend their aid."

Pudu Cihang spoke words that stunned all.

The Immortal God of Longevity looked at Pudu Cihang and realized he could not penetrate this man's origins.

He immediately understood: this man either had a cultivation realm no lower than his own.

Or he possessed some other divine ability that concealed his cultivation realm.

Whichever it was, this Great Yuan's Right Dharma Master was no ordinary man.

"Good! The Xuanxin Sect's master, Jin Guang, I shall handle myself."

After speaking, the Immortal God of Longevity vanished in a flash, appearing directly high above the clouds.

He roared toward the small hill of Lanruo Temple, "Jin Guang, come out and fight!"

As he shouted, a swath of golden light descended from the horizon, and slowly, the Xuanxin Sect's master, Jin Guang, appeared in splendid attire.

"Master Changsheng, our battles have always ended inconclusively—why have you come again?"

Jin Guang was puzzled; they had clashed many times before.

All along, Jin Guang's Dao arts had left the Immortal God of Longevity helpless.

"Boy, do you truly believe you are my match?"

The Immortal God of Longevity sneered coldly—if he abandoned all restraint and unleashed his final ultimate technique,

He was confident that, save for Ximen Wudi, no one under heaven could withstand it.

This Jin Guang, though possessing miraculous Dao arts, was still no match for him.

"Enough talk. Take my attack."

Before Jin Guang could reply, the Immortal God of Longevity instantly used the Move Heaven Divine Technique to draw in the true essence from a hundred li around, and launched it in a vast torrent toward Jin Guang.

"Enough, enough!"

Jin Guang smiled calmly; he had endured such clashes many times these days, and had grown accustomed to them.

He immediately summoned Dao arts, carving a talisman into the sky with golden beams, then advanced to meet the Immortal God of Longevity.

In an instant, the two supreme experts clashed high in the heavens.

"Forgive me, Dharma Master…"

Mu Huali watched as the Immortal God of Longevity rushed out to challenge him immediately after speaking, and could only grimace.

"No matter."

Pudu Cihang remained unmoved, shook his head, and pointed to the small hill,

"Now, General Mu Huali, you must lead all the honored masters to prevent the other members of the Xuanxin Sect from interfering.

Especially the Xuanxin Four Divine Generals!"

"Understood!"

These past days, the Great Yuan's experts had clashed countless times with the Xuanxin Sect, each side suffering losses.

They had gained some understanding of the Xuanxin Four Divine Generals.

Immediately, Mu Huali deployed his troops, leaving General Zhebie to guard the camp and prevent the Tang from launching a surprise attack.

He personally led the various masters toward the hill to confront the Xuanxin Sect.

The great battle erupted instantly.

Under Mu Huali's command, the Great Yuan's various experts surged toward the hill.

The Xuanxin Sect could only resist, led by the Xuanxin Four Divine Generals, against the Great Yuan's experts and army.

In an instant, the small hill was plunged once more into war.

"Huh? Why, at this moment, does the Great Yuan ignore Long Xiang Seng and instead continue attacking Lanruo Temple?"

Hanba, watching the Yuan army's movements from the Tang observation platform far away, could not help asking.

Long Xiang Seng was a Great Yuan national protector and honored offering, one of the earliest prominent figures of the Great Yuan.

When the Age of Great Strife began, Long Xiang Seng followed the Lotus Life Buddha in traveling across the land.

All major powers knew his cultivation was supreme and his status in the Great Yuan was exalted.

Today's events, to any clear-eyed observer, were clearly orchestrated by the Great Yuan behind the scenes, leading to the downfall of the Wu Dangpai.

Thus, Long Xiang Seng stepped forward, first challenging the True Wu Seven-Cut Formation, then facing Zhang Sanfeng, the Seven Dragon Head.

In the eyes of countless major powers, visible or hidden, Long Xiang Seng's Wu Gong might not be unmatched in this age.

But for his loyalty alone, he was worthy of praise from all factions.

Now, in his fierce duel with Zhang Sanfeng, Long Xiang Seng was, subtly, not gaining the upper hand.

At this moment, the Great Yuan ignored him entirely and attacked Lanruo Temple—this truly surprised all factions.

Di Renjie, as Tang's Grand Chancellor and known as the Sage Strategist,

Upon seeing the Great Yuan's actions, stroked his beard and smiled,

"Corpses Hanba, Mu Huali is now surrounded on all sides. If he does not seize this chance to attack Lanruo Temple,

Once Long Xiang Seng and the Seven Dragon Head finish their duel and are slain by the Qinglong Society,

They will be left with no choice but to wait for death, with no further chance of escape."

This time, the Tang army had encircled from all sides, having already reclaimed every inch of Youzhou, except this place, Beizhen.

At the expert level, nearly all had arrived, from Cang Qu down—truly a gathering of heroes.

Mu Huali's Yuan army, naturally, could not possibly be a match.

The only glimmer of hope lay in going to Lanruo Temple, fighting to the death to rescue the Yin Yue Imperial Court, and joining forces with them for even a sliver of chance.

"So that's it! But who among them could possibly subdue Yan Chixia, who is inside the temple, while Master Changsheng is tied up by the leader of the Xuanxin Sect?"

Jiang Chen understood better than anyone the power of a top-tier powerhouse like Cang Qu.

Because he was far from that level, yet also not far from it.

Moreover, after their battle at Long Yin Cave, he and Cang Qu had formed a decent friendship.

During his cultivation in the Tang Dynasty secret realm, Cang Qu had given him considerable guidance.

So no one in the Tang Dynasty knew better than him just how terrifying a powerhouse like Cang Qu was.

Yan Chixia, having earned Cang Qu's approval, was clearly an equally terrifying opponent.

Now that the strongest figure in the Great Yuan—the immortal God Changsheng—had already approached Jin Guang, Yan Chixia had no equal.

With Yan Chixia present, who could possibly break the seal of the Yin Yue Cave Heaven?

"Put down your knife and become a Buddha at once!"

Cang Qu suddenly blurted out this random remark.

All the Tang Dynasty experts were baffled, yet Di Renjie, who was not an expert, suddenly brightened and asked,

"Does Master Moda mean the mysterious figure who just shattered the True Wu Seven-Cut Formation is also a top-tier powerhouse?"

"Mm."

Though he had not fought the man, Cang Qu could still sense his terrifying power.

All the Tang Dynasty experts felt stunned.

A powerhouse recognized by Master Moda Cang Qu was likely of the same caliber as Master Changsheng or Yan Chixia.

But the Great Yuan already had Master Changsheng—and now another mysterious figure had appeared.

If the Great Yuan then broke the seal of the Yin Yue Cave Heaven and released the Yin Yue Imperial Court, which brought calamity to the world,

wouldn't the Great Yuan's strength become even more staggering than the Qinglong Society?

At the very least, wouldn't it leave the Tang Dynasty far behind?

"No! I will immediately order all our armies to launch an attack!"

As he thought of this, Di Renjie's heart chilled with alarm.

He was a loyal minister of the Tang Dynasty, a pillar of the Empress; with the situation having deteriorated so drastically, how could he sit idly by as chaos spread?

"Di Ge Lao, don't rush."

Seeing Di Renjie speak like this, all the Tang Dynasty experts prepared to obey and fight, but Cang Qu merely smiled calmly and advised,

"Hm? What does Master Moda mean?"
