Chapter 148 Not a Piece of Cake

The white light sphere grew larger and larger, and in just a moment, its diameter reached hundreds of meters.

The three Sect Leaders exchanged glances, each sensing a strong premonition of ill omen in the other's eyes.

"Full defense!"

Duan Yanzhuo shouted loudly, then raised his arms in front of his chest and roared!

"Ah!"

The Lingtian War God behind him adopted a defensive stance, and an ancient shield-like defensive light罩 (zhào, shield) instantly appeared, shielding everyone within.

Almost at the same time as the shield appeared, the white light sphere in the old chained immortal's hand shot out.

It smashed down like a meteor from beyond the sky, leaving a blazing white line at the old chained immortal's fingertip!

Boom—

The blazing white light sphere smashed into the Lingtian War God's shield, creating an unprecedentedly loud echo.

The aftermath of the explosion spread out from the group as the epicenter, and the entire Immortal Sect City was affected to varying degrees.

Fortunately, the buildings in Immortal Sect City were blessed with magic and were indestructible.

If this battle had taken place in a secular city, buildings would have collapsed long ago, and at least half of the structures would have been destroyed.

After the explosion, the Lingtian War God's shield was completely shattered, and even the Lingtian War God's Dharma Idol suffered considerable damage, becoming less solid.

As for Duan Yanzhuo himself, his face was even more disheveled, with blood flowing from all seven orifices.

He wiped away a handful of blood and cursed, "Damn it! That was really something!"

"Senior Brother Duan, please watch your language. Don't be so vulgar," Yun Lan reminded him.

"Damn it, you're not the one who got hurt. What are you nagging about!"

Duan Yanzhuo completely let go of himself, and the seriousness and propriety that the three Sect Leaders should have completely disappeared from him.

Chen Xiao felt a bit more admiration for Duan Yanzhuo at this moment.

Although this person was vulgar, the more he acted like this, the more it showed that he was going all out and throwing himself wholeheartedly into the battle.

Propriety is not something you put on; acting like a grandson is!

In contrast, Yun Lan was clearly conserving her strength.

Perhaps she's thinking about how to deal with me afterward... Chen Xiao thought to himself.

Of course, Chen Xiao didn't have much of a position to criticize Yun Lan, since he hadn't even made a move yet!

"Kill..."

Just then, the old chained immortal's dry voice came again.

Having failed with one strike, he was already preparing for a second attack.

"I'm counting on you this time. I need to adjust my breathing first."

Duan Yanzhuo said to the two people next to him, "That move was too powerful just now. I didn't expect this old thing to be able to use it repeatedly. No wonder he's an old immortal. His methods are superior to our Dharma Idols."

After all, the Dharma Idol is only a part of the Upper Immortal's magical power, while the one Bai Di has locked up is a true old immortal. Although he doesn't seem to be in his full state, his strength is ultimately not something that a Dharma Idol can compare to.

However, even an immortal's magical power cannot be inexhaustible.

Such attacks cannot be sustained continuously.

If that were really the case, Bai Di wouldn't have bothered with these schemes and tricks. He could have just pushed his way through.

Now the three Sect Leaders were defending with all their might, waiting for the old immortal to run out of strength.

Bang—the white light sphere drew an elegant arc at the old immortal's fingertip and smashed towards the group again.

This time, it was Yun Lan and Zi Wei's turn to defend with all their might.

Zi Wei's Nine Heavens Fairy behind her flicked her water sleeves, blocking the white light sphere's path like a natural barrier.

And the Wine Sword Immortal summoned his wine gourd.

The wine gourd kept getting taller and bigger, eventually becoming like a pagoda several thousand meters high, placed upside down on the ground, protecting everyone inside.

This time, Zi Wei and Yun Lan attacked at the same time, unleashing two lines of defense.

Although they were not as good at defense as Duan Yanzhuo, the combined power of the two Dharma Idols was definitely stronger than one.

In fact, that was indeed the case. The white light sphere was exhausted before it even broke through the first layer of defense.

Seeing this scene, everyone was immediately overjoyed.

"That old thing's attack is getting weaker. I didn't expect him to be so useless! Hahahaha..."

Duan Yanzhuo laughed loudly. Next, it was time to sound the charge for a counterattack.

Yun Lan frowned slightly and said cautiously, "It doesn't seem that simple. Be careful, it might be a trap!"

"What kind of trap could there be? That old thing is just Bai Di's puppet. His strength is definitely not as good as a real immortal. Maybe his true power is sealed. This is just Bai Di digging his own grave!"

Duan Yanzhuo said confidently.

However, just then, countless white meteors suddenly appeared in the sky above them!

They were densely packed, like a violent storm!

"Not good, it really wasn't that simple. The Nine Heavens Fairy didn't dissolve the opponent's attack just now. He just broke it down into smaller parts and broke through the two lines of defense!"

Yun Lan exclaimed as if she had suddenly realized something.

"Did you need to say that? We're all at the Combined Dao Realm. Do you think I couldn't see that?"

Duan Yanzhuo said unhappily.

The raindrops formed by the white light spheres arrived in an instant, clearly intending to penetrate the Dharma Idols and directly attack the group themselves.

The speed was too fast, catching them off guard.

By the time they reacted, several light spheres had already exploded around them.

The power was enormous, no less than a full-force strike from a Combined Dao Realm expert... The main thing was that the meteor shower in the sky was so dense that it was impossible to count how many there were.

But after all, they were all experts. They were just caught off guard at the beginning, and then they dodged and moved, dealing with the situation calmly.

In addition, with the protection of the three Dharma Idols, they did not suffer any damage in the end.

"Damn it, this isn't going to work!"

Duan Yanzhuo said through gritted teeth.

"I said, why do you have to stand together?"

Just then, Chen Xiao's voice came slowly.

The three were stunned at first, and then their faces turned red... They, the dignified Combined Dao Realm experts, hadn't even thought of such a simple principle!

It must be because they had been away from the battlefield for too long that they had made such a low-level mistake!

After Chen Xiao's reminder, the three immediately separated, surrounding Bai Di and the old immortal in a staggered formation.

"Heh, you think this is enough? Naive!"

Bai Di sneered disdainfully and waved his hand, ordering, "End this battle! The descendants of the Immortal Sect are getting worse and worse!"

The old immortal received the order, and his dull, wooden face suddenly revealed a bit of manic aura, and the killing intent spread out like a tangible substance.

"Junior Sister Zi Wei, Junior Brother Yun Lan, it's time for us to show him what we're made of. We can't let him look down on us!"

Duan Yanzhuo shouted loudly.

Although Zi Wei and Yun Lan didn't say anything, their eyes revealed a look of determination, as if they were ready to fight to the death with the opponent!

Clang—

In the old chained immortal's hand, a heavy giant ruler was suddenly summoned. Although the heavy weapon was unsharpened, it exuded a powerful majesty.

Duan Yanzhuo was stunned, and a look of desire appeared in his eyes: "That weapon is pretty good. When we defeat this old thing, that giant ruler will be mine!"

"Let's defeat him first. It's a bit too early to start distributing the spoils now!"

Zi Wei's eyebrows were like swords, and her charming face became sharp.

"Hehe, Junior Sister Zi Wei is right. Let's defeat him first before we talk about anything else..."

Duan Yanzhuo almost instinctively started simping for Sect Leader Zi Wei, but halfway through his words, he suddenly remembered, that's not right. Zi Wei is already with that brat, why am I still thinking about her?

Just as he was distracted for a moment, the old chained immortal seemed to have sensed an opportunity, raised the giant ruler, and smashed it over!

Seeing the huge shadow covering him, Duan Yanzhuo felt like an ordinary person facing the entire Mount Everest collapsing directly on him.

He quickly mobilized his Qi, and the Lingtian War God behind him held the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade, sweeping across the army, and met the giant ruler head-on.

Clang—

A dull, loud noise rang out hundreds of meters above the Lingtian War God's head, causing his brain to buzz, and a mouthful of blood spurted out directly.

And the Lingtian War God's Dharma Idol was even more miserable, almost being shattered directly by the opponent.

The edges of the Dharma Idol had already begun to slowly dissipate like melted chocolate.

"Damn it, I can't hold on anymore!"

Duan Yanzhuo's voice was still loud and sonorous, but his entire state was already on the verge of collapse.

Suffering such a serious injury had already damaged his Dao intent. If his Dao intent was scattered, then not only would he have no hope of ascending, but he would also be as good as crippled.

"Senior Brother Duan, don't hold on any longer. Quickly put away your Dharma Idol!"

Yun Lan shouted to remind him.

As she spoke, the Wine Sword Immortal continuously slashed several swords at the old chained immortal to divert his attention.

Otherwise, if the old chained immortal single-mindedly attacked Duan Yanzhuo, treating him as a breakthrough point, then they would soon suffer a casualty.

"If I put away my Dharma Idol now, what will you guys do?"

Duan Yanzhuo said helplessly.

With their three Dharma Idols together, they were already struggling to face the old immortal. If he put away his Dharma Idol now, it would be equivalent to surrendering directly.

"What are you panicking about? There aren't just three of us. There are four of us!"

Zi Wei reminded him.

"Are you referring to him?"

Duan Yanzhuo's face showed a wry smile, with a hint of disdain in the wry smile, "He was able to win the championship in the Pride of Heaven battle, so his strength is indeed not bad, but compared to us, he's just a child!"

According to him, 'a child' was obviously unable to replace him.

And just as he was speaking, the old immortal raised the giant ruler again and smashed it towards him.

This old immortal was just being controlled by Bai Di, but he wasn't stupid. He knew the principle of striking while the iron is hot.

So he would rather endure the Wine Sword Immortal's several swords than miss this opportunity to eliminate an opponent. So after raising the giant ruler, his target was still Duan Yanzhuo!

Seeing the giant ruler quickly smashing towards him, Duan Yanzhuo only had one thought in his mind, a complete and utter defeat!

As things stood, the Lingtian War God's Dharma Idol was already unable to protect him.

And the only fate waiting for him was to fall.

It would be better to be smashed to death, which would be the end of it all, than to have his Dao intent scattered and become a cripple in the future.

But even if he wanted to die, it wouldn't be that easy... At the critical moment, Chen Xiao would naturally take action!
