After the array collapsed, the battlefield involving the two enormous beasts was no longer confined to Bird Beak Slope.
Beyond several graveyards and mountaintops that had been devastated,
a giant toad the size of a small hill and a skinless rotting giant with four claws forcefully pressed against each other, were desperately wrestling using their most intrinsic powers.
Crackle crackle...
The intense conflict between the Deceit Realms they each unfolded eroded each other, and colorful smoke clouds rose up, making the surrounding mountaintops appear intermittently visible.
Although these two beasts had been ford by the Red Seal and Yellow Seal borrowing a trace of his power as the Heavenly Official,
they had already subtly developed sothing of the flavor of the Green Seal Sage’s Inner Scene Heaven and Earth becoming a Dharma Domain.
However, this wrestling match did not last long.
Among the mountains, the toad’s croaking grew louder and louder, its power seemingly becoming stronger than that of the Skinless Corpse King.
"This is bad!"
It was relying on the "Nine Phases Corpse God Dao" ford by the earth’s veins. After losing those nine major fierce points, its reserves of power gradually beca inferior to the "Plague Dao," which was still constantly supported by the air of disaster and epidemic.
As ti passed, it inevitably fell into disadvantage.
Just when victory seed within reach, the toad’s yellow belly suddenly swelled up, as if a ball was rising from its abdon to its throat.
Croak!
Accompanied by a cry that could pierce through tal and split rocks, a red tongue shot out from its mouth.
In an instant, it completely penetrated the Deceit Realm covering the Skinless Corpse King’s body, and pierced through its chest as well.
Seizing the opportunity while its opponent was gravely injured, it grasped the Corpse King and tore fiercely to the left and right.
Rip—!
After wrestling and fighting confusingly throughout the night,
Finally, at this mont, the east wind completely overpowered the west wind, as the toad’s Deceit Realm advanced forcefully, brutally tearing the Skinless Corpse King in two.
Blood rained from the sky.
About a dozen Yellow Seal Mages and several tens of Red Seal Mages in the Yin God Realm suffered heavy losses, with at least half of them killed instantly.
Even Xu Yun, the Ghost Gate Arhat who was the strongest among them, had his Lifebound Magic Treasure shattered and was directly knocked down from the Earth Essence Realm back to the Dharma Body Realm.
"We must retreat!"
Following Xu Yun’s retreat order, all the survivors of the "Nine Phases Corpse God Dao" used their ans to scatter and escape, as fleeing lights soared into the sky.
The Realm Mages in the Yin God Realm, fortunate to barely survive, decisively abandoned their physical bodies and escaped using their swift and light Yin God forms.
Regrettably,
in the high skies already swept by fierce winds and dense clouds,
Snap!
A black dot suddenly appeared and instantly expanded into the silhouette of a tall man in blue robes.
The mastermind behind the scenes, Old Master Wang who had finally entered the fray, ford the Harmonizing Yin and Yang Seal with his hands and bowed towards the high skies, chanting aloud:
"Manipulating the Heavenly Dao, transforming the dual forces, generating yin and yang, turning Qiankun, by the Imperial Decree! Heaven and Earth are boundless, Qiankun borrowing technique—!"
In combating evil heretics, the Heavenly Dao naturally responds without fail.
Wang Yuan’s expression imdiately changed, appearing as lofty and indifferent as the heavens themselves.
The core tenet of Harmonizing Yin and Yang is precisely this—borrowing technique.
Channeling a certain grand energy that already exists between heaven and earth for one’s own use.
Although it’s never possible to exceed the natural limits of heaven and earth, nor to create energy out of nothing,
what makes humans human is that they can actively transform nature, and if conditions don’t exist, they create them!
The formation of thunderstorms is very simple in principle: as rainclouds form, so cloud masses acquire a positive charge, while others get a negative charge.
When the electrical charge builds up to a certain level, the electric field between differently charged cloud masses or between clouds and the earth can break through the air and form a thunderstorm.
Qingyan and Long Shao, these two True Dragons, may not be skilled in Thunder Skill.
However, their abilities to manipulate clouds and rain are unparalleled by any other cultivator following different paths.
The thunderclouds gathered in the sky at that ti were certainly far less than those accumulated over seven days on the North Sea Coast previously,
but the victor below was not the Dharma Image Realm’s Earth Mother Black Heaven.
Seeing that the competition had finally been decided and no longer had any utilitarian value, Wang Yuan brought his sword fingers together and thrust fiercely at the biggest target, the toad.
He shouted aloud:
"Summoning Thunder Departnt, Heavenly Punishnt Urgent Thunder! Decree!"
This ti was different from the past when only an illusion of the Thunder God manifested from the spirit of heaven and earth was summoned; this was a true Summoning of the Thunder Departnt!
"At your command!"
The response from within the clouds, louder than the sound of thunder, bood resoundingly.
"What?!"
The toad, finally relaxing after achieving a complete victory, suddenly looked up towards the sky.
It was horrified to see several imposing Thunder Departnt Immortal Officials, accompanied by brilliant flashes of electricity, appearing among the rolling clouds.
Golden Essence Green Thought Immortal, Disaster Avoiding Thunder God, Poison Absorption Thunder God, Fuwei Thunder God... including Punishnt Evil Thunder God Cui Baiyu, totaling sixteen!
Like stars around the moon, they surrounded a handso young man with an indifferent gaze who regarded everything "as re straw dogs".
The futures of the assembly of Thunder Departnt Immortal Officials were all entrusted to Wang Yuan, so how could they stand by while he fought alone?
Of course... there’s no need to talk about ethics in the Jianghu with devils and heretics, we fight together!
Thus,
"Summoning Thunder Departnt" and "Harmonizing Yin and Yang" were activated simultaneously.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...
The natural heavenly might and the thunder magic of the Thunder Departnt transford into thousands of blinding silver serpents of lightning, furiously crashing down towards Beimang Mountain.
The fastest escaping "Nine Ghost Gods of the Corpse Dao" demons were continually struck by lightning, crashing to the ground charred.
And eighty percent of the thunderstorm’s firepower was entirely focused on that giant toad.
A mournful croak from the toad was drowned out by the thunder.
The colorful deceit realm on the surface of the toad fluctuated violently, and countless demons inside it were obliterated in an instant.
"How could the ’Nine Soldiers’ main army have arrived so quickly?"
As its face drastically changed, it withstood the ferocious bombardnt of the heavenly urgent thunder using its "Deceit Realm" on its body and hurried toward... the Beimang Mountain Blessed Land.
In the minds of the masters of the "Plague Dao,"
the only place on Beimang Mountain that could shield them from this omnipresent divine thunder was the Beimang Mountain Blessed Land, with no second location available.
One mont, two monts, three monts...
The toad’s feet erupted with "Dharma Light," smashing through any small mountains in front of it to return to Bird Beak Slope as quickly as possible.
Seeing the unguarded entrance to the Luoyang Royal Mausoleum and the Blessed Land close at hand, a hint of joy appeared on the toad’s face.
At the sa ti,
Xu Zhenzhi, who was guarding inside the Blessed Land, saw this scene in a water mirror and swung his Peach Wood Sword, coldly chanting:
"Beidou’s nine stars, Central Heaven God. Ascend to Golden Que, descend upon Kunlun. Harmonize directives, govern Qiankun. Dakui Greedy Wolf, Jupiter stores fortune. Wenqu Lianzhen, Mars shatters armies.
Great Zhou Heavenly Border, refine into dust.
Heluo Cycle Array, form the array! Close the gate!"
A sound like a lock snapping shut suddenly rang out through the air.
The entire Beimang Mountain Blessed Land began to draw inward, swiftly thickening a layer of starlit boundary mbrane, resembling chains around a city gate.
At the sa ti, as the "Heluo Cycle Array" fully ford, it felt like dredging a river and building a reservoir within the earth pulses where the Blessed Land was located.
The spiritual chanisms swallowed by the "Owl God Snatching Food Array" also foster breeding and cultivation along the node points of the array’s chanism,
nourishing the Beimang Mountain Blessed Land, making the spiritual chanism of heaven and earth within more lively and transparent.
The next mont.
Boom——!
A trendous roar that shook the earth and mountains.
The toad that tried diving headfirst into the Beimang Mountain Blessed Land slamd heavily into the "Sealing Boundary" ford by the "Heluo Cycle Array".
Realizing sothing seed beyond its control, by the ti it thought of turning around to flee, it was already too late.
Wang Yuan and the Thunder Gods, having anticipated this, changed their spells.
The heavens and earth darkened instantly.
It seed as though a heaven-reaching bolt containing all the electrical charge of the thunderclouds, striking straight down from the sky.
Bang!
The rolling plague aura exploded like fireworks, and then disintegrated in the brilliant thunder light.
The giant body of the toad also burst apart explosively.
And having forcibly endured this thunder, the fate of the "Plague Dao" mbers was even more miserable than those of the "Nine Ghost Gods of the Corpse Dao" just now.
Red Seal was annihilated in one strike, and many of the Yellow Seal Mages were instantly killed.
Those few powerhouses who lucked out and survived, each vomited three liters of blood, severely weakened to the brink.
Even more ominous was,
a sowhat aged yet suprely authoritative voice echoed throughout Beimang Mountain:
"Imperial decree to Beimang, Heaven and Earth Sealing Boundary, prohibit all directions!"
With the mountain god’s decree, mist began to rise, sealing all the "Yin Roads" and any teleportation magic on Beimang Mountain.
Now, no one could leave Beimang Mountain.
"Mountain God?! Nine Soldiers?! I...."
A flash of lightning exploded in Sun Fenghan’s mind, and in a mont of realization, seemingly understood everything.
Aggravated by a surge of rage, he spit out another mouthful of fresh blood.
When he looked up again, Old Master Wang and his group, never forgetting to deliver the final blow, were already swooping in on the barely surviving, heavily injured "ritorious" ones.
The prerequisite for using minimal force to move a heavy object is that one must also possess formidable strength; cunning and scheming only display montary dominance, and a single misstep could an a total loss.
To last longer, real power in one’s hands is what counts!
Wang Yuan, Tai Bai’s avatar, Yama’s avatar, Qingyan, Long Shao, Grandma, and the readily available "Yellow Seal Mage" level combatant Ghost General Lingxiao ford a formidable team of seven.
Such strength, even if placed in so powerful major sects, would not just be so insignificant branch.
And at that mont, as a vague shadowy gust of yin wind swept by.
The military judge Nie Renxiong, who had captured many Yellow Seal Mage residual souls, finally completed his Yellow Seal promotion ceremony and fully solidified his "Heavenly Punishnt Body"!
Another great general was added under Old Master Wang’s command.
