Chapter 84

At this moment, the great array protecting the Mystic Peak was not only torn apart between the Kaiyuan and Qiling Peaks, allowing over a hundred martial cultivators from the Four Spirit Mountains to surge in.

The array between the Kaiyuan and Luohui Peaks was also torn again, and the Four Spirit Mountain martial artists, who had been repelled, reorganized and launched another attack.

The cavalry at the foot of the mountain could no longer launch a counterattack and dismounted to join the resistance against the Four Spirit Mountain martial artists.

Among them, the Four Spirit Mountain martial artists who attacked from between the Kaiyuan and Qiling Peaks had the easiest time, with a Fourth Heaven martial artist intimidating from above, the cavalry of the Patrol Hall did not dare to make a move, only sitting at the foot of the mountain, allowing the Four Spirit Mountain martial artists to attack.

At this moment, the Fourth Heaven expert, Yan Que, suddenly trembled, his cloak flew to the front and wrapped around, then in his hand, it was bound by primordial energy, revealing a black long staff.

Then, this person held the long staff upside down, took several quick steps in the air as if borrowing force from the ground, and then, with both hands, fiercely swung the staff towards the topmost of the two iron chains between the Kaiyuan and Mystic Peaks.

The three iron chains originally arranged in a triangular shape, with the left lower one cut, only the topmost and the right lower one remained.

The long staff whistled down, enveloped by the primordial energy of heaven and earth, forming a giant primordial energy staff eighteen zhang long, it was unknown whether the two iron chains could withstand it.

At this moment, the topmost iron chain suddenly began to tremble from the Kaiyuan Peak end, as if someone was deliberately shaking it.

At this moment, Shang Xi on Mystic Peak instantly understood, and she bent down, grabbing the right lower iron chain with both hands, her primordial energy flowing into it like a flood, causing the chain to also tremble.

The contrast between the thick iron chain and Shang Xi's slender and delicate figure was striking.

The staff whistled down, and at the moment it struck the topmost iron chain, the chain suddenly trembled and became slack and sunken.

At the same time, the other iron chain at the right lower corner, under Shang Xi's control, suddenly arched upwards, making the two iron chains roughly parallel between the two peaks.

The staff whistled down, the tremendous impact force was distributed between the two iron chains, and in the wave-like trembling, the two iron chains remained intact.

On Mystic Peak, the massive shock from the iron chains pushed Shang Xi's numb hands away, even causing her internal primordial energy to vibrate, her face turning pale and then red, taking a long time to calm down.

However, Shang Xi's expression was not at all relaxed, but her gaze towards Kaiyuan Peak became even more serious.

The tremendous counter-shock force just now was difficult for Shang Xi to resolve herself, and how long could the injured Yuan Zilu hold on?

...

On Kaiyuan Peak, Shang Xia suddenly threw his Jade River Sword.

"Manager Yuan, catch the sword!"

Shang Xia clearly saw that Yuan Zhen's long sword was only a low-grade weapon, and when facing Jia Yuntian's Gold Devouring Shears, he had to constantly be on guard to prevent being entangled and cut, making it difficult to fully unleash his strength.

The Jade River Sword flew through the air, and Yuan Zhen suddenly let out a long whistle, his long sword flying out of his hand, turning into a cold light in mid-air, heading straight for Jia Yuntian's face.

Jia Yuntian's face changed, and in a hurry, he had to use the Gold Devouring Shears to block in front of him.

A sharp, ear-piercing sound, the long sword let out a mournful cry and was deflected.

However, the tremendous force contained in the long sword made Jia Yuntian involuntarily retreat two steps, standing at the edge of the cliff.

"Rustle—"

During the retreat, the force from his feet caused the pebbles to fly backward, falling off the cliff.

Yuan Zhen took the opportunity to rise into the air and caught the Jade River Sword thrown by Shang Xia.

The Jade River Sword was a flexible sword, and although Yuan Zhen was not yet familiar with it, it was at least a medium-grade weapon, and he no longer had to worry about it being easily cut by the opponent's superior weapon, freeing him from his previous constraints.

Yuan Zhen laughed and swung the Jade River Sword, several sword auras bursting forth, pushing Jia Yuntian back.

"Alright, this is not your business, leave here first!"

On the other side, Yun Yifei took the opportunity to use a long ribbon to restrain Jia Yuntian's movements, creating an opportunity for Yuan Zhen to severely injure the opponent, while also reminding Shang Xia.

Shang Xia retreated several dozen zhang as instructed but did not leave, instead watching the three people's battle from a distance.

More accurately, most of his attention was on Jia Yuntian, who was facing the two people's attack, and his expression became somewhat strange.

In the blink of an eye, both sides had already exchanged over a dozen moves, the rapid changes in techniques making it hard to follow, let alone ordinary people, even ordinary Wuji Realm cultivators would probably be dizzy.

However, Shang Xia's gaze on the battle did not show any discomfort, but rather became increasingly bright.

Suddenly, Shang Xia shouted loudly, "Left hand ice, right hand fire!"

Although Shang Xia's voice was heard by Yuan Zhen and Yun Yifei, they did not understand and did not take it seriously.

However, the moment Shang Xia's words fell, a flame suddenly burst from Jia Yuntian's right hand, the originally one-foot-long shears instantly transforming into a ten-foot-long flaming giant shears, like a fire-breathing crocodile, lunging at Yuan Zhen.

At the same time, Jia Yuntian's right wrist turned, a cold aura shot out from his palm, hitting Yun Yifei's long ribbon, which was instantly covered in ice, becoming stiff.

Jia Yuntian, who was completely suppressed, suddenly burst out, making the two people somewhat flustered.

But Yuan Zhen understood that the more critical the moment, the more he could not retreat, otherwise, the opponent would regain his footing and prolong the battle.

Yuan Zhen continuously slashed over twenty sword lights, barely suppressing the flaming giant shears, but his clothes were already scorched and tattered, and several blisters on his arms, shoulders, chest, and face were visibly swelling.

On the other side, Yun Yifei, whose strength was inferior to Yuan Zhen, had her long ribbon frozen, reducing her restraining power on Jia Yuntian, and the pressure suddenly shifted to Yuan Zhen.

Fortunately, Yuan Zhen fought to the death, suffering minor injuries to push back Jia Yuntian's counterattack.

After Yun Yifei dispelled the cold aura on her long ribbon, she immediately resumed restraining Jia Yuntian, and the situation returned to the previous state.

However, at this moment, both Yuan Zhen, Yun Yifei, and even Jia Yuntian realized that Shang Xia's warning was not a coincidence.

At this moment, Shang Xia spoke again, "Left hand soft, right hand hard!"

Yuan Zhen almost instinctively dissipated half of the primordial energy on the Jade River Sword, and with his left hand, he pointed at Jia Yuntian's side.

As if rehearsed, Jia Yuntian's Gold Devouring Shears fiercely struck the Jade River Sword, but the flexible sword body bent ninety degrees, smoothly deflecting the force and exposing a gap in his side.

Faced with Yuan Zhen's finger strike, Jia Yuntian, who had nowhere to retreat, could only hurriedly pull back the Gold Devouring Shears to cover the gap.

A loud "Clang" sound, Jia Yuntian successfully blocked the finger strike, but the force from the Gold Devouring Shears made his wrist numb, and his hand holding the shears began to tremble.

On the other side, Yun Yifei, who still had some doubts about Shang Xia's advice, did not react in time, and Jia Yuntian grabbed her long ribbon, and both sides entered a tug-of-war.

Jia Yuntian, enduring the vibration of his internal primordial energy, looked past his two opponents and at Shang Xia, who was half-hidden behind a boulder a hundred zhang away: "Kid, do you also practice the 'Three Profound Two Extremes Art'? How could you possibly predict the changes in my internal primordial energy?"

Under comprehensive suppression, Jia Yuntian still had to divert his attention, and was immediately seized by Yuan Zhen, a sword aura slicing across his shoulder, instantly soaking his right shoulder in blood.

Shang Xia, of course, would not tell him that the Three Profound Two Extremes Art had been completely integrated into the Taiji diagram in his dantian, evolving into a new cultivation method, surpassing the Three Profound Two Extremes Art in terms of hierarchy.

The changes in Jia Yuntian's internal primordial energy were no secret to Shang Xia.

However, Shang Xia was also deeply impressed by Jia Yuntian's changes in primordial energy types and his application and control of the two extremes.

Although Jia Yuntian was now at the Wuji Realm Great Perfection stage, without the support of high-level concepts like Taiji and Two Instruments, reaching this level was already quite remarkable in Shang Xia's view.

Or rather, they had already begun to understand, summarize, and involve some of these concepts, but they could not form a fixed, almost ingrained cultural tradition like Shang Xia.

While Shang Xia was speculating, he continued to remind Yuan Zhen and Yun Yifei.

In a short time, Jia Yuntian had been struck by Yuan Zhen three more times, his entire body covered in blood, and he was clearly at the end of his strength.

Yun Yifei, in her struggle with Jia Yuntian, was able to grasp the changes in his primordial energy and respond in time, pulling Jia Yuntian's body several times, at least two of the three strikes by Yuan Zhen were due to her pulling.

Seeing Jia Yuntian's situation still precarious, he was at risk of being killed by Yuan Zhen's sword.

Suddenly, a huge change occurred outside Kaiyuan Peak!

A giant primordial energy hand, almost unnoticed by everyone, emerged from the sky and fiercely pressed down on Kaiyuan Peak.

"Be careful!"

Shang Xia, the only one with the leisure to observe the surroundings, noticed the anomaly above his head, and the sky-blocking palm was already right in front of him!

Boom—

The giant primordial energy palm, just three zhang above Kaiyuan Peak, suddenly touched an invisible barrier, but the palm still pressed down over a zhang, causing the entire Kaiyuan Peak to tremble, the cliffs around the mountain to collapse, and large rocks to roll down.
