"Stubborn …" Seeing this, Gu Huo Jin only smiled faintly.

With that, he raised his hands, and two golden light waves surged out from his palms, surging into the sky.

The huge chaotic vortex was stirred up by the golden light and the grey light that surged out from it became stronger and stronger. It pressed down on Li Yuanjiu and the others.

The five-colored light on the small bottle was immediately suppressed and shrank, like a firefly in the night.

"Oh no, I can't hold on any longer …" Dream Woman exclaimed. Everyone was forced to retreat.

Li Yuanjiu could not help but sigh. His painstaking preparations were ultimately no match for Gu Huo Jin's far-reaching plans.

At this moment, something strange happened.

High up in the sky, in the void behind Gu or Jin, there was a sudden spatial ripple, and a huge silver rune appeared from it. Then, a silver door of light suddenly opened.

Gu Huo Jin immediately sensed it and frowned. He retracted one of his palms and slapped behind him.

The golden light in his palms surged and turned into nine golden dragons that rushed towards the door.

A dark red light suddenly surged out from the silver light gate. It surged out like a tide and instantly collided with the nine golden dragons.

"Boom!" There was a loud explosion!

The silver door of light suddenly exploded, leaving a huge black hole in the Void. It did not disappear for a long time.

Almost at the same time, a figure appeared in front of Gu Huo Jin and behind him. One clenched his fist and the other extended his palm.

Gu Huo Jin could not avoid it. The golden light on his body surged and a golden figure that looked like a dharma suddenly appeared around him. It covered his body and helped him withstand the attack from the front and back.

"Boom!" There was a loud explosion!

The golden figure suddenly exploded, and a huge golden ring of clouds rippled out from it. It spread out in all directions and directly forced the two people who had launched the sneak attack to retreat millions of miles away.

The golden cloud ring gradually dissipated, and the clouds all over the sky turned into specks of golden light and disappeared. The figure of ancient and modern appeared from within. His chest was heaving violently, and there was a trace of blood at the corner of his mouth. He was actually injured.

"So it's you guys …" Gu Huo Jin maintained his posture of activating the formation with one hand and wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth with the other.

Li Yuanjiu and the others felt the pressure on them lessen as they hurriedly turned to look at the two people who had suddenly appeared.

Everyone was shocked by what they saw.

They were none other than the Devil Lord and the Samsara Temple Master, who had been killed by Gu or Jin.

Both of them were enveloped in a layer of light that was able to resist the corrosion of the formation. The power of laws did not leak out from their bodies.

"It seems that Brother Gu isn't surprised by our return, is it?" Samsara Temple Master raised his eyebrows and asked.

"There are three supreme laws in this world. Although the two of you haven't reached the apex of your respective Daos, you're still following closely behind me. If you're really that easy to deal with, then I'll be disappointed.

But there's something I don't quite understand. The two fake bodies of you are so unimaginable that even I couldn't see through them, "Gu Huo Jin said with a smile.

"I have a younger brother from the same clan. His name is Shi Kongjie. His Law of Puppets is also considered to be at the highest level in the world. It's not surprising that he was able to hide it from Fellow Gu," the Demon Lord replied.

"I see. I always thought that you had killed him because you didn't get along with him. I didn't expect it to be a self-directed show.

You've really put in a lot of effort, "Gu Huo Jin said in realization.

…

In the Devil's Realm, the once magnificent Yang Ye City had been mostly destroyed.

The battle between the rebel army led by Daoist Xie and the orthodox forces led by the Fiendcelestial Lord had been extremely brutal, and no one who had experienced that battle would think that it was just an act.

In fact, the beginning of the war was not a show. Even the early stages of the war were not a show. Instead, when the two sides were fighting to the death and were about to die, someone appeared and brought a message that was enough to make them stop the war and stop the decisive battle.

This person was naturally the Samsara Temple Master, and this message was naturally Gu Huo Jin's scheme.

At this moment, in a secret chamber in the depths of the Devil Palace, a pale-faced Daoist Xie was sitting cross-legged on a futon. His aura was extremely weak.

What was even more shocking was that the left half of his body, from his shoulder to his lower abdomen, had disappeared into the Void. It was obvious that he had overused the power of the Law of Puppets and had been corroded by the Heavenly Dao.

Not far in front of him, Shi Chuankong stood with his hands clasped behind his back, his face full of worry.

When Taoist Xie extracted the Power of Law from the Samsara Temple Master and the Demon Lord to create the two puppets, he had been watching from the side. Although Taoist Xie had also been eroded by the Heavenly Dao at that time, it had not been as serious as it was now.

However, not long ago, Daoist Xie, who was meditating, was suddenly severely injured, and his condition of being corroded by the Heavenly Dao suddenly worsened.

Moments later, Daoist Xie suddenly let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes.

Shi Chuankong hurriedly stepped forward upon seeing this.

"Don't worry, I only suffered a backlash from the destruction of the previous puppet bodies," Daoist Xie said upon seeing Shi Chuankong's grave expression.

"Uncle, what's the situation over there?" Shi Chuankong asked worriedly.

"It's a long story …" Daoist Xie shook his head.

Right at this moment, a strange fluctuation suddenly appeared in the Void, and wisps of the power of the Laws overflowed from their bodies at the same time. They were pulled into the sky like silk threads.

"This is …" Shi Chuankong hurriedly asked in shock.

"Gu Huo Jin has activated the formation. The situation over there isn't looking good …" Daoist Xie's expression became even more grave.

…

Within the Outer Realm.

Han Li and Jin Tong flew through the Outer Heavenly Gales like bolts of lightning.

They had initially planned to enter one of the Immortal Realms through the "windows" that hadn't been closed yet, then use the teleportation formations within the Immortal Realms to travel to the Central Earth Immortal Realms. However, for some reason, all of the teleportation formations leading to the Central Earth Immortal Realms and even the nearby regions were no longer functioning.

After a series of attempts, Han Li decided to take Jin Tong with him and travel to the Central Earth Immortal Realms through the Outer Realm, just like how Yue Mian had taken them.

Just as the two of them were flying at full speed, something strange suddenly happened to their bodies. The power of laws began to flow out of their bodies like translucent threads before disappearing into the void.

"What's going on …" Jin Tong came to an abrupt stop with a surprised expression.

Han Li paused momentarily upon seeing this before replying, "I'm afraid something has happened to the Heavenly Court …"

With that, he hurriedly circulated his Celestial Spiritual Energy in an attempt to seal his Nomological Energy so that it would not continue to leak out.

"I can't seal it …"

However, when he tried, he was shocked to find that he couldn't stop the power of laws from flowing out.

"What should we do?

If this continues, I'm afraid we won't be able to reach the Heavenly Court in time, then … "Before Jin Tong could finish his sentence, he suddenly noticed a green light shining from Han Li's chest.

Han Li naturally sensed the change in the small bottle and quickly took it out from his chest.

The leaf-shaped patterns on it glowed and released a light that enveloped Han Li's body. The overflowing golden light instantly disappeared.

"It stopped." Jin Tong's eyes lit up.

Han Li hesitated for a moment before he casually shot out a ray of light that connected with Jin Tong.

The layer of light that enveloped his body immediately spread over and enveloped him as well. The power of laws on Jin Tong's body also stopped flowing out.

"It seems that the small bottle can resist this strange change, but I don't know if it's temporary or permanent. Let's hurry to the Heavenly Court." Han Li said with a solemn expression.

Jin Tong nodded and the two of them flew into the distance in an instant.

…

Central Earth Celestial Realm, Heaven Prayer Continent.

The Heaven Mending Sect's Dragon Rising Peak was still cold and cheerless.

However, for some reason, the ancient peach trees on the peak seemed to have been attacked by a night of torrential rain. Their petals and leaves had fallen, making them look miserable and pitiful.

Without the cover of the clouds and leaves, the entire peak of Dragon Rising Peak was completely bare. This made the octagonal black stone altar that stood on the peak stand out even more.

The black vortex floating above the altar was still rolling with thick fog. However, only half of the old face that was embedded in the vortex remained. Coupled with the disheveled hair and the blinded eyes that were suffused with the color of a fish's belly, it looked somewhat strange and terrifying.

"There are three thousand ways of divination, but it's difficult to divine the heavens …" A somewhat desolate and hoarse voice sounded from the void and echoed on the empty mountain peak.

Chen Tuan's single blind eye swept across the scattered petals on the ground and tried to look at the mountain peak in the distance. Finally, it moved to the vast sky with a worried and hesitant expression on his face.

"Forget it, forget it. I've lived for so many years, but in the end, I didn't dare to ask for this divination. Now that there's only half of the divination left, whether I can divine it or not … haha, it all depends on fate," Chen Tuan said slowly with a bitter smile.

He didn't want to know the result of the Bodhi Banquet. He only wanted to know what the future would be like.

After muttering to himself, he began to chant. Suddenly, blood seeped out of the blind eye, directly covering the white veil covering the eyeball. In the next moment, as if it was burning, it turned into a blood-colored crystal light, gushing out, directly into the void in front of him.

The void suddenly twisted and turned into a black whirlpool, sucking in the crystal light and building a blood-colored "bridge" between them.

However, this old man who stood at the peak of the Law of Prophecy had finally reached the end of his life.

The bridge had just been built, but in less than ten breaths, it collapsed with a loud bang.

However, the black whirlpool didn't disappear. Instead, it flew directly towards Chen Tuan and merged with the black whirlpool behind him, slowly swallowing the remaining remnants of his body.

"I didn't expect it to be like this …"

Between heaven and earth, Ancestor Chen Tuan only left this sentence.

In a split second, all the ancient peach trees on the entire Dragon Rising Peak spontaneously combusted. Black smoke soared into the sky, like a dragon rising from the peak and escaping into the sky.
