Chapter 352: Pure Yang Immortal Corpse_1
"Haha, my fellow Daoist, what a skillful display, still hiding such a move up your sleeve. Truly, Bai Yuzi is humbled."
Upon seeing the newcomer, Bai Yuzi did not dare to be arrogant and promptly greeted the arrival with his younger sister, their faces full of smiles as he spoke in admiration.
"Haha, you flatter me, Daoist. Please, this way."
Qingyun Dao replied with a light smile, while gesturing for Bai Yuzi and his sister to follow him.
Meanwhile, the originally seated Cause and Effect Dao and Water Dao had stood up to welcome them.
"If that is the case, then we thank you, my fellow Daoist."
"Thank you, elder brother."
Bai Yuzi and the young girl with a bun hairstyle beside him spoke in unison.
With each step they took,
Bai Yuzi couldn't help but scan the dark, chaotic Formation space around him, his eyes filled with astonishment.
His previous understanding of this Daoist was limited to his powerful incarnations and exceptional tracking skills.
However, the emergence of this wondrous Ancient Stars Formation made him feel as though he was meeting Zhang Jing, this Daoist before him, for the first time.
Bai Yuzi had just witnessed the formidable power of this grand formation, not to speak of its offensive capabilities, but merely the complex, inside-out spatial arrangement of the Formation alone was enough to trap him.
Moreover, he didn't believe that the large formation's capability was limited to merely entrapping people—the hidden offensive power was bound to be even more terrifying.
Otherwise, why would Zhang Jing dare to admit all five Pure Yang beings into the formation?
Bai Yuzi's eyes flashed as he thought to himself:
"Indeed, those among the Human Race who sit upon great luck movements are none of them simple. No wonder the descendants of imperial bloodlines are willing to follow this man."
At this moment, the trace of pride that had been faintly lingering in his mind quietly vanished without a trace.
Before long,
four figures were seated together.
As for the little girl in white, Xiao Wu, she was in a Formation space not far away, joyfully chasing the illusory lights of stars, completely engrossed in her play.
"Fellows, ah, Daoist Zhang Jing,"
Bai Yuzi suddenly lifted his head, his gaze lightly scanning over the three faces in front of him which bore some resemblance to one another, a flicker of strangeness crossing his features before he spoke thoughtfully, "You've called me here—is it because of those five individuals inside the formation?"
"Indeed."
The Cause and Effect Dao replied without hesitation, his tone full of honesty,
"Daoist brother, to be frank, we three initially thought that by gathering the strength of over thirteen thousand Combining Dao beings to devise the Minor Celestial Formation, we should be able to suppress these five Pure Yang beings."
Saying so, he couldn't help but give a wry smile and shake his head, then continued,
"However, it now seems we were overly optimistic. At present, we can only barely confine those five, but to kill them is beyond our reach."
So that's how it was.
Upon hearing this, realization dawned on Bai Yuzi.
"Haha, such a situation is indeed normal."
Bai Yuzi pondered for a moment, as if organizing his thoughts, then said with a comforting tone, "After all, they are Pure Yang beings that draw upon the divine soul's guidance of the Dao."
"Such beings have numerous methods and an extremely strong survival ability. In fact, not to mention our mere Feathering selves, even beings of the same realm would find it no easy task to encircle and kill a Pure Yang being."
Feathering?
The Water Dao, who had been quietly listening, caught the key point in Bai Yuzi's words, instantly understanding the latter's misunderstanding but chose not to point it out.
Next to him, Qingyun Dao pursed his lips and looked directly at Bai Yuzi, saying, "That's why we'd like to invite you, Daoist brother, to take action this time and, in conjunction with the Minor Celestial Formation, see if we can keep all five of these individuals here."
The voice of Qingyun Dao became chillingly cold.
He was resolutely not about to forget that he had been forced into a piteous flight over the past several years, all thanks to the Mysterious Pavilion.
Previously, having no certainty, he had let it be, but now that an opportune moment had arisen, he figured it was best to strike while the iron was hot and settle the score first.
"I understand."
Bai Yuzi stood up, and a pure white, edgeless Immortal Sword suddenly appeared in his hand, its blade emanating a dreadfully cold aura.
"Bai, for one, just happens to need supreme Immortal blood to temper my sword! However, there is one thing I hope Daoist Zhang Jing understands."
"Just speak forthrightly, Daoist brother."
"They are after all Pure Yang existences! Together, we have a fair chance of slaying these immortals, but if their divine souls seek to escape, we will be unable to stop them. If we proceed with such lethal intent, it is tantamount to severing their hopes for eternal life by ninety percent, and you, Daoist, may well provoke their revenge later."
"I cultivate in the Nine Colors Natural Mysterious Hall of the Chaotic Xuanhuang Heavens, where they absolutely cannot enter, but you—"
Bai Yuzi paused, implying without finishing his sentence.
Yet, contrary to his expectations,
Upon hearing these words, the three incarnations of Cause and Effect Dao burst into laughter, saying indifferently, "Haha, if they wish to seek revenge, let them come. It simply means that beneath the Zixia Peak of Lingshu Mountain, a few more corpses of immortals will be buried."
By the end of that declaration, the voice was filled with an overwhelming killing intent that made Bai Yuzi's scalp tingle.
"Hiss—, it seems that Daoist Zhang Jing isn't as docile as he appears on the surface."
Bai Yuzi inwardly exclaimed.
Given the terrifying killing intent just revealed by Zhang Jing, he was almost certain that the lives that had fallen by his hand were now stacked like mountains.
The key point was, among them, there must be extremely frightening powerhouses; otherwise, such a fearsome killing intent would not have been cultivated.
Compared to him, he suddenly seemed like a benevolent individual whose hands were unstained by blood. Wait a minute, he was originally a pure white crane.
