581: Look at the famous scenes

"Let's take a look at the most classic 'famous scene'!" Lu Jiuyuan pointed his finger, and the screen in the sky enlarged, becoming clearer as it scrolled, rewinding time to a battle from that era.

"Zhao Gongming! Aren't you being too arrogant?" Guangchengzi held the Heaven-Turning Seal, the faces of the eleven True Immortals equally grim.

Zhao Gongming laughed loudly: "You've all come, and just in time! It saves me from having to find you one by one! You allowed your Disciples to commit atrocities and insulted my Jie Sect; today, we shall settle all Karma at once!"

The black tiger beneath him roared, and he pointed his golden whip from afar: "Enough talk, let's see what you're truly capable of! Sea-Calming Pearls, rise!"

Twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls rose simultaneously, linking with one another to form a simple yet terrifying Twenty-Four Solar Terms Formation.

They descended upon the eleven Golden Immortals!

He intended to suppress the eleven Chan Sect Immortals with his own power!

"Arrogant!" Guangchengzi roared, casting the Heaven-Turning Seal, which transformed into the phantom image of Mount Buzhou, clashing head-on with two of the Sea-Calming Pearls.

Chi Jingzi's Yin and Yang Mirror flashed with black and white light, attempting to fix the radiance of the pearls in place.

Immortal Master Yuding's Immortal-Slaying Sword unleashed Sword Qi that soared into the heavens, aiming directly at Zhao Gongming himself.

The remaining Golden Immortals each employed their own methods, unleashing Magic Treasures and Divine Abilities, engaging in a chaotic battle against the phantoms of the Sea-Calming Pearls filling the sky.

In an instant, the sky above Chentang Pass became the most brutal battlefield.

The Sea-Calming Pearls spun, as if the heavens themselves were fading in and out of existence; each one was as heavy as ten thousand jun, containing the power of an entire world.

Like stars, they descended in succession, bombarding everything continuously!

Although the Chan Sect Golden Immortals were strong, facing such a relentless bombardment from these Spirit Treasures, they felt immense pressure, their blood and Qi surging violently as they were shaken, their Magic Treasures wailing in distress.

Seeing their elder brother fighting the group of Immortals alone and still holding the upper hand, the Three Xiao sisters were relieved, but fearing that a prolonged battle might lead to complications, they exchanged glances and said in unison: "Elder brother, we have come to assist you!"

Yunxiao cast the Primordial Golden Dipper into the air; the dipper spun rapidly, its opening aimed at the battlefield, and an irresistible suction force suddenly erupted!

This treasure specialized in collecting Magic Treasures and capturing the physical bodies of Immortals, possessing infinite power. Immortal Master Huanglong was the first to bear the brunt; having the fewest Magic Treasures and caught off guard, he let out a cry of alarm and was sucked directly into the dipper!

"Junior Brother Huanglong!" Immortal Master Yuding exclaimed in shock.

Qiongxiao and Bixiao also cast the Golden Dragon Scissors, which transformed into two ancient Yin and Yang Dragons, their heads and tails intertwined, carrying a sharp Evil Qi capable of tearing through heaven and earth as they sheared toward the nearest target, Ju Liusun!

Ju Liusun was terrified, his Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering, and he hurriedly attempted to use Earth-Escaping Art, only to be horrified to discover that the surrounding space had been subtly sealed by the power of the Sea-Calming Pearls and the Primordial Golden Dipper. His escape technique was impeded, and as the Golden Dragon Scissors grazed him, one of his arms was severed at the root, blood spraying wildly!

"Three Xiao! How dare you!" Guangchengzi's eyes were nearly splitting, and he shook the Soul-Falling Bell frantically, attacking the Divine Souls of the Three Xiao sisters directly.

However, a golden lamp rose above Yunxiao's head, dropping ten thousand golden lotuses to protect the four siblings, blocking the majority of the Soul-Falling Bell's sound waves.

The battle situation took a sharp turn! Zhao Gongming held most of the Golden Immortals at bay single-handedly, and the Three Xiao sisters' Magic Treasures were bizarre and unpredictable; upon joining, they immediately severely wounded Ju Liusun and captured Immortal Master Huanglong. The Chan Sect Immortals instantly fell into a passive position.

"This cannot go on!" Immortal Master Yuding transmitted his voice to the others. "Zhao Gongming's Sea-Calming Pearls are too powerful, and the Three Xiao sisters' Magic Treasures are formidable; someone must break their treasures, or attack their physical bodies directly!"

"I will go!" A ruthless glint flashed in Dao Xing Tianzun's eyes.

"Senior Brother, lend me the Heaven-Turning Seal; I will use it to clash head-on with the Sea-Calming Pearls, creating a momentary opportunity for you all! Senior Brother Guangchengzi, you, Chi Jingzi, and Yuding, combine your efforts to attack Zhao Gongming's body! Cihang, Wenshu, and Puxian, find a way to hold off the Three Xiao sisters!"

They were going to take a desperate gamble!

Once the plan was set, Dao Xing Tianzun let out a long whistle, injecting most of his mana into the Heaven-Turning Seal. This supreme treasure, refined from a fragment of Mount Buzhou, erupted with unprecedented brilliance, transforming into a mountain and crashing directly into the core of the incessantly spinning twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls!

"Rumble—!!!"

It was like the great explosion at the creation of heaven and earth!

The Heaven-Turning Seal and over a dozen Sea-Calming Pearls collided solidly!

The forces of both sides surged, forming a brief vacuum of power and a chaotic zone!

Guangchengzi, Chi Jingzi, and Yuding merged with their swords, transforming into three heaven-shocking rainbows, piercing through the chaotic Spiritual Qi turbulence, and striking directly at Zhao Gongming, who had been violently repelled by the Heaven-Turning Seal and was momentarily distracted!

Zhao Gongming snorted coldly, sweeping his golden whip horizontally, while simultaneously urging his mind to call several Sea-Calming Pearls back to defend.

However, the chaos caused by the Heaven-Turning Seal's desperate strike was greater than he had anticipated, and the returning Sea-Calming Pearls were a split second too slow!

"Puff!" "Shhh!" "Clang!"

Guangchengzi's sword light was deflected by the golden whip, and Chi Jingzi's Yin and Yang Mirror light brushed against Zhao Gongming's protective immortal light, stirring up violent ripples.

Immortal Master Yuding's Immortal-Slaying Sword, however, seized that sliver of an opening, leaving a wound on Zhao Gongming's shoulder so deep the bone was visible!

"Elder brother!" The Three Xiao sisters cried out in alarm.

Injured, Zhao Gongming's ferocity grew even more intense: "Good! A very good Yuding! I will surely slay you today!"

Ignoring his shoulder injury, he drove the golden whip in his hand and fought with the three Immortals.

Seeing this, Cihang, Wenshu, and Puxian hurriedly activated the Pure Glazed Vase, Dragon-Escaping Stake, Wu Hook Sword, and other Magic Treasures to assist, but they were firmly sucked in by Yunxiao's Primordial Golden Dipper, while Qiongxiao and Bixiao's Golden Dragon Scissors followed them like shadows, forcing them to scramble to save themselves.

In just a few breaths, screams rang out one after another, and trails of Divine Souls flew toward the Heavenly Court.

The eleven True Immortals, under the hands of Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao sisters, did not last even half an incense stick's time before all of them were dead.

This scene terrified Nezha and Erlang Shen below, their faces changing drastically; these were all their elders, the second-generation Disciples of the Chan Sect, and they had died so carelessly?

"Enough."

A voice rang out. Calm, indifferent, without sorrow or joy.

Time across the entire battlefield seemed to freeze at this moment.

The drifting immortal blood hung suspended in the air, and the shattered fragments of Magic Treasures remained motionless.

It was not that they did not want to move, but that they could not.

A "presence" that transcended cognition and was beyond description had descended.

Deep in the firmament, purple Qi came from the east for thirty thousand li.

Wherever it flowed, the shattered space automatically mended, the chaotic Spiritual Qi returned to order, and even the earth and mountains below, which had collapsed due to the great battle, began to recover to their original state at a speed visible to the naked eye.

In the center of the purple Qi, a figure slowly appeared.

There was no towering Dharma image, no thousands of auspicious rays of light; it was just a middle-aged Daoist wearing simple Daoist robes and a Yuqing Lotus Crown, standing quietly in the Void Realm.

His gaze was as deep as the eternal starry sky, and just by standing there casually, the entire heaven and earth seemed to revolve around him; the sun, moon, and stars dimmed in his presence, and the mountains and rivers bowed before him.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate.

"Greetings, Grandmaster!" Erlang Shen, Nezha, and the others immediately knelt down.

"Senior Martial Uncle Primordial... Could it be that seeing your Disciples suffer, you intend to descend personally to have a bout with us?" Yunxiao shouted, looking up.

Primordial Heavenly Venerate's gaze swept across the battlefield, over the fragments of Dao Rhyme left where the eleven Golden Immortals had fallen, and finally landed on Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao sisters.

"How unruly! You know not of respect or rank!"

"Such is the number of Heaven; you are destined to be on the list," Primordial Heavenly Venerate said indifferently.

He raised his right hand and flicked his index finger lightly.

There was no radiance, no strange phenomena. Zhao Gongming's body, starting from his fingertips, silently turned into dust.

This Jie Sect outer sect head Disciple, who had just fought the eleven Golden Immortals alone relying on the twenty-four Sea-Calming Pearls, did not even manage a decent resistance before falling between heaven and earth.

"Elder brother!"

"Old man Primordial, you bully the small with your greatness!"

"Old thief Primordial, you are utterly shameless!"

"Primordial, if you have the ability, let us set up the Nine-Bend Yellow River Formation and have a proper fight with you! Bullying the small with your greatness, despicable and shameless—are you not afraid of being mocked by my Master?"
