The 64th Battle of Contention for the Throne (4)

  No matter whether it was the Tianyi Sect, the Jie Sect or the Western Sect, during the ancient times when the two tribes of Wuyue and Yao were vying for dominance, they all guarded their mountain gates tightly, cultivating their Taoist techniques, and had never met with the two tribes. Among the three sects, only Xuan Dou Dafa and Duobao knew about the cruelty of the war between Wuyue and Yao, and had seen the ferocity of the Wuyue tribe's secret methods. Others, despite being warned about the ferocity of the Wuyue tribe, were complacent as they were under the gate of a holy person, and did not take it to heart, which was also one of the main reasons why the Tianyi Sect's immortals were repeatedly defeated by Chiyou.

  Chi You's desperate struggle finally made the various immortals understand that the struggle for dominance between the Wu and Yao tribes was not accidental, and that Chi You and a few great witches were not something they could withstand.

  The "Xuanyin Great Array" was derived from the "Twelve Heavenly Godly Demon Great Array", although its power is far inferior to the "Twelve Heavenly Godly Demon Great Array", it is still extraordinary. After Chi You's reincarnation and rebirth, he became a person destined for calamity under the heavenly way, his cultivation had already recovered to the time of the Witch-Yao War, at this time his cultivation was on par with Da Wu Xing Tian, and he also took a different path, refining the thirteen Xuanyin flags, and controlling several great witches, in an instant, the "Xuanyin Great Array" was filled with fierce flames and overwhelming momentum.

  The 'Great Array of Profound Darkness' was activated, and a thick black fog spread out, filling the space between heaven and earth. The sky grew dark, and the sun and moon lost their light. Xuan Yuan's army looked out from within the array, but all they saw was an endless expanse of blackness, with nothing else in sight.

  The feeling of the immortals in the array is different from that of Xuan Yuan. The rolling magic fire comes continuously, constantly refining the many immortals. The dark fog churns restlessly, with countless ghostly wails and demon howls, as if wanting to pierce through the flesh and enter the spiritual body. The entire immortal yuan is also restricted by the 'Xuanyin Great Array', unable to move freely at will.

  The Nine Heavens Xuan Nü saw this situation and started her divine powers, beating the Kui Cow Drum to a continuous ringing sound. The sound emitted by the Kui Cow Drum was ancient and heavy, making people feel calm, and the discomfort brought by the mournful and piercing wailing of ghosts and wolves also dissipated a lot.

  The immortals also raised their own treasures, and for a time, the colorful lights flashed dazzlingly in the endless black fog, stunning people's eyes. The heavenly demon fire was also completely blocked outside, not even close to approaching.

  At this time, a cold hum suddenly spread throughout the array. It was Chi You who saw that everyone had taken out their magical treasures and became furious in his heart. The thirteen Xuan Yin flags changed again, and a bright red blood light flashed through the array. In an instant, the black fog seemed to be boiling, and a surge of turbulence erupted. Gradually, several giant demonic silhouettes emerged from the black fog, with their entire bodies emitting a fierce aura that shot into the sky. A violent and brutal energy rushed forward.

  That demonic shadow appeared, the rolling black fog inside the array seemed to be even more dense, mixed with countless demonic fire and dark lightning, constantly bombarding the protective divine light of the Xianjiao deities.

  Ran Deng let out a cold hum, his hands subtly changing seals, the golden pagoda on top spinning rapidly, instantly transforming into a boundless high and low, reciting incantations, a massive power emanating from the pagoda, majestic beyond compare. Ran Deng's treasure appearance was solemn, his Taoist robe fluttering slightly, his entire body surrounded by a halo of jade-like divine light, suddenly shouting loudly, the golden pagoda above surging with jade-like immortal energy, instantly forcing back three feet the demonic fire and dark mist surrounding Ran Deng.

  That jade clear immortal energy surged and churned without cease, the surrounding space seemed to be boiling, breathing in and out transformed into earth fire wind water, surging and churning, endless and boundless, spreading out in all directions. Wherever it passed, the dense black fog and fierce dark yin demon fire were completely shattered, then transformed into earth fire wind water, surging and churning.

  Ran Deng smiled lightly, and the 'Ling Guan Lantern' suspended above his head also burst into brilliant light. Wherever the light shone, the dark fog dispersed and disappeared, the demonic fire was extinguished, and yet it didn't carry even a hint of grandeur, as if it were just a gentle dusting.

  In front of Guang Chengzi was the floating Post-Heavenly Spiritual Treasure 'Reversal Heavenly Seal', with golden light radiating greatly from its body, its aura majestic and sharp. Wherever the golden light reached, the dark misty demonic flames were all repelled.

  In the Immortal Sect, Huang Long True Man was the most miserable. All other Immortals of the Sect had received Pre-Heavenly Spiritual Treasures from Yuanshi Tianzun to protect themselves, but he alone did not receive any reward from Yuanshi Tianzun. He didn't have a single decent spiritual treasure on him and could only rely on his own cultivation to resist the pressure brought by the 'Mysterious Yin Great Array'.

  After the various immortals displayed their spiritual treasures, the dark winds and swirling black fog within the great array suddenly diminished greatly.

  Chi You, enraged by the sight, swung his 'Tiger Soul Treasure Knife' and stirred up a vast, dark cloud. The several Grand Shamans each spat out a mouthful of vital blood onto their Xuan Yin flags, which immediately regained their former brilliance. Within a radius of ten thousand miles, the primordial energy of heaven and earth surged forth, pouring into the grand formation and transforming into churning bloody mist.

  The dark clouds surged up on the surface of the Xuan Yin banner, each one bursting forth with a thread of blood light. In mid-air, they wove together into a vast blood-red net. Countless tadpole-like runes drifted through the air, attaching themselves to the net. When they obtained those runes, the blood light of the net grew brighter and more dense. The dark clouds seemed to have received some summons, forming thirteen sturdy giant dragons that connected with the Xuan Yin banner.

  Suddenly, the thirteen demon shadows let out a loud roar and emerged from the black fog on the banner, standing in the rolling black fog with blood light entwining their bodies, emitting an aura that was oppressive to people. The Great Witch's blood indeed wasn't ordinary, allowing the Xuanyin Banner to reach its full potential, enabling the thirteen extraterritorial heavenly demons to reveal their true forms and face their enemies.

  When everyone opened their eyes to look, the thirteen demon gods were all different from each other, but they all had scales attached to their bodies, with heights ranging from a thousand feet. They let out a loud roar, causing the earth to shake and the heavens to tremble, as their evil aura pierced through the sky and reached the nine hells.

  That demon god charged forward in the dark fog, attacking the Xuan teachings' immortals. Every time its claw shadow passed by, it would cause the void to collapse. After withstanding the attack from the demonic gods outside the realm, the Xuan teachings' immortals felt as if Mount Tai was pressing down on them, their bodies shaking violently, and even their primordial spirits were somewhat unstable. At this point, they didn't dare to slack off, and instead activated their divine powers, focusing their minds to face the enemy.

  The demon god was tall and majestic, but its movements were agile and unpredictable. Its combat skills were also imbued with the witch tribe's divine powers, which were unparalleled. The thick black fog and blood clouds in the demon god's hands formed various types of weapons, fiercely battling the Xuan Jiao saints. For a time, the Xuan Jiao saints were unable to keep up, and they appeared somewhat disheveled.

  The demonic fire raged, the dark mist churned, and thirteen massive demon gods appeared, putting Xuanjiao Xian in a precarious situation. Not only did he have to split his divine consciousness to counter the invading demonic flames, but the dark mist and blood clouds were also transformed from the souls of millions of lives, with resentment filling the air. The dark mist would occasionally take on various ghostly forms, ferocious and terrifying, with severed limbs and dripping blood. Moreover, they did not fear the Jade Clear protective golden light of the Xuanjiao immortals, and instead surged forward in droves. The Xuanjiao immortals had no choice but to unleash the Jade Clear divine thunder to scatter them, but this demonic fire and dark mist would re-condense after just a moment, repeating the cycle as if it would never end.

  Guang Chengzi saw the situation and was also secretly anxious, seeing each of his fellow disciples taking on a demon god, fighting even harder. The rolling black fog and bloody clouds were especially disturbing, confusing people's minds. However, he too had no way to deal with this, not having expected Chi You to be so desperate, and the "Xuan Yin Great Array" actually had such power.

  The entire 'Xuanyin Great Array' was shrouded in a black fog, with blood light flickering within the fog, and blood clouds swirling inside the blood light. The endless black fog churned ceaselessly, as countless yaksha evil spirits harassed the Xuanjiao immortals, causing them to be restrained while resisting the thirteen domains of Tianmo outside the array.

  He had the 'Lingguang Lantern' to protect himself, and the demons outside the domain did not dare to approach him. After seeing the situation of Guangchengzi and other Xuanjiao immortals, he couldn't help but smile secretly. Although he had the ability to go forward and assist them a little, because he was already dissatisfied with Yuanshi Tianzun, he didn't care about the life and death of the Xuanjiao immortals.

  Just as he was watching the deplorable state of the immortals, he suddenly felt a fierce and murderous aura approaching from behind. Before he could react, his body involuntarily spun around like a whirlwind, leaving its original position. When he finally managed to steady himself and take a closer look, he discovered that it was Chi You who had not been willing to give up, seeing how relaxed Feng Deng looked, and had snuck up on him with the 'Tiger Soul Treasure Knife' in hand.

  Ran Deng didn't want to fight Chi You, but he knew that Yuanshi Tianzun was definitely watching this battle. In a situation where he couldn't help it, he could only take out the 'Qiankun ruler' and go forward to fight with Chi You.

  At this point, the two men were fighting fiercely, exchanging blows and rolling around for dozens of rounds. Chi You's martial arts skills were exceptionally high, and his "Tiger Soul Treasure Knife" was a bloodthirsty weapon. His lantern magic was also highly skilled, and his "Qian Kun Ruler" was an extraordinary spiritual treasure. With the protection of the "Ling Zhuan Lantern", he wasn't afraid of Chi You's "Tiger Soul Treasure Knife". As a result, the two men fought to a stalemate.

  Chi You's body was already an undying magical body, so the "Qian Kun Chi" hitting his body only caused some pain but couldn't cause much harm. Every time Chi You's "Tiger Soul Treasure Knife" showed off its might, the "Ling Jian Lantern" on Feng Deng's head would emit a ray of light to block it, and couldn't hurt him in the slightest. The two were now evenly matched. Although Feng Deng seemed carefree and could rely on the "Ling Jian Lantern" to protect himself, he also found it difficult to harm Chi You in the slightest. Chi You appeared fierce and formidable, but also found it hard to harm Feng Deng in the slightest.

  The lamp in his heart was not urgent, but Chi You was anxious and worried. At this time, the 'Xuan Yin Great Array' had eliminated the interference of the 'Zhou Tian Star Dou Great Array', but he was always concerned about the actions of the Heavenly Court.

  While the other powerful wizards relied on the 'Xuanyin Great Array' to gain the upper hand, the thirteen outer heavenly demons defeated the Tianjiao immortals one after another. However, all of this was based on the 'Xuanyin Great Array' suppressing the abilities of the Tianjiao immortals. If they didn't take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of the Tianjiao immortals and Xuan Yuan, then when the Heavenly Court reopened the 'Zhou Tian Star Fighting Great Array', it would be difficult for the 'Xuanyin Great Array' to withstand the power of Zhou Tian alone. The fate of Chi You and the Jiuli tribe could be imagined. Therefore, at this time, Chi You had no choice but to fight desperately to gain a chance at survival.
