Chapter 894 Taking advantage of the situation
"So what if you obtain the Dragon-Phoenix Common Source? So what if you are the savior summoned by the cultivation world? Lin Zhao, you are still just a Celestial King."

After the Ninth Priest finished speaking, as if he had rallied himself, he summoned a slender sword without hesitation, intending to finish off Lin Zhao at close range.

This was actually the fastest way, but the Ninth Priest was wary of Lin Zhao's strange Seven Star Palace power that absorbed his strength, and worried that if he got close, Lin Zhao's endless methods would catch him off guard.

Therefore, before this, he used relatively safe methods that could suppress Lin Zhao and then kill her.

However, Lin Zhao had made too many preparations. She used at least three abilities that she had never used before when facing him!
The Nine Priests used data from Lin Zhao's previous battles to measure their fight against Lin Zhao.

Who knew Lin Zhao had been hiding for so long and so deeply?

At this moment, there's no use in being surprised.

The Ninth Priest moved swiftly and was in front of Lin Zhao in the next moment. Lin Zhao held the Heavenly Decree Spear and swept it back against his attack.

But the Ninth Priest's rapier had already pierced her chest.

After striking the target with a single blow, the Ninth Priest unleashed his evil power without hesitation, shattering Lin Zhao's physical body.

"Speed, cultivation, strength—you are all inferior to me, Lin Zhao. After you unleashed the Thunder Dragon Heavenly Summoning five times, forcibly transforming yourself into the Lord of Heaven and Earth with your Immortal King body, what other tricks do you have left to fight me?!"

The rapier was grasped by a slender, fair hand.

The Ninth Priest looked over in shock, meeting Lin Zhao's cold eyes.

At this moment, the nine priests had to admit that they were truly afraid.

Because in Lin Zhao's eyes, there was neither her original dark black, nor the gold of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, nor the purple-gold of the Ancient Dragon Clan.

Instead, it was a chilling gray!
This is the color of evil thoughts from another world!
How is that possible?!
The Ninth Priest tried to draw his rapier, but Lin Zhao gripped the blade tightly, and he found himself unable to move.

"I've been waiting."

Although his eyes had turned gray with otherworldly evil thoughts, Lin Zhao's voice remained surprisingly calm.

"The gods won't give me power for nothing. I've been waiting for the feeling of this power within me erupting."

Lin Zhao wiped away the blood that tinged with gold and gray.

"Now I understand." Lin Zhao sighed, his gaze towards the Ninth Priest revealing a devouring desire that made the Ninth Priest tremble.

"So, you want to assimilate me?" Lin Zhao crushed the Ninth Priest's sword, and from that moment on, his aura naturally transitioned to that of an Immortal Emperor.

No, it's not just the Celestial Emperor!
The Ninth Priest clearly felt his aura weakening, while Lin Zhao's cultivation level continued to rise.

“Ninth Priest…” Lin Zhao coughed and laughed as he reached out his free hand and pierced his chest. “Give me everything you have, and I will take your desires and lead you to where you want to be.”

The Ninth Priest was horrified. At this moment, he finally began to regret not obeying the gods' orders and recklessly attacking Lin Zhao here!
"Myth brother, save me!" The Ninth Priest cried out in a panic in one direction.

Lin Zhao paused and looked in that direction.

"Ninth Brother, this is the first time I've seen you so disheveled. Even the Ancestral Phoenix didn't scare you like this back then."

A somewhat mocking voice rang out, and a figure completely shrouded in a black robe appeared out of thin air within the Heavenly Withering Ancient Formation.

Clearly, Lin Zhao's Heavenly Withering Ancient Array could affect the nine priests, but had no effect on the eight priests.

This also shows that the eight priests are far superior to the nine priests.

But Lin Zhao only glanced at the eight priests who had suddenly appeared, and continued with his work.

"Lin Zhao, you are indeed excellent, worthy of being the high priest candidate chosen by the gods. However, let's leave the high priest position to us priests. Your time ends here for today."

Lin Zhao seemed not to hear him and continued to absorb the power of the Nine Priests.

A flash of anger crossed the Eighth Priest's eyes. "Can't you understand human language?"

At the same time, he unleashed a crimson beam of light that flew towards Lin Zhao.

Just as the crimson light was about to strike Lin Zhao, a silver spear shattered it.

The eight priests' pupils contracted, staring incredulously at the woman wielding the silver spear. "Gu Yan?!"

The matriarch of the Ancient Dragon Clan gripped her silver spear, looking at the Eighth Priest before her with a half-smile: "You old dog, you've kept me searching all these years."

The eight priests' expressions changed drastically. "How did you end up here?!"

The referee, in principle, should not have gone to the evil realm with them.

After the contestants entered, they sealed off the passage between the Desolate Evil Domain and the outside world, so Gu Yan could only enter with these contestants.

But why did Gu Yan...?

Without knowing who these priests were, it would be a foul for the referee to come in.

Moreover, even if Gu Yan came in, there were no members of the Ancient Dragon Clan here. How could she appear so timely?

Every question can only point to one answer.

The Eighth Priest glared angrily at the woman who was absorbing the Ninth Priest's power: "Lin Zhao, did you do this?!"

Lin Zhao looked at him with her eyes, which had been stained gray and turned somewhat black.

At this moment, the Eighth Priest somewhat understood the fear the Ninth Priest felt when he looked into Lin Zhao's eyes.

Because seeing Lin Zhao now is like seeing the combination of the Ancestral Phoenix, the Ancestral Dragon, and... the High Priest.

These three beings were once the ultimate beings who could easily annihilate them.

Especially the high priests; if it weren't for the restrictions imposed by the gods, they would understand that the high priests even possessed the power to contend with the gods!

Lin Zhao withdrew his hand from absorbing the power of the Nine Priests, sealed the remaining power of the Nine Priests in a jade bottle, blinked, and his eyes immediately returned to their clear, dark black.

Can one maintain rationality while absorbing power?

The eight priests felt a chill in their hearts.

Gu Yan did not give him any more time to react.

"Have you seen enough?" Gu Yan didn't explain why she had appeared; in any case, she had wanted to kill the other party for a long time.

The Eighth Priest barely managed to exchange a few blows with Gu Yan before deciding to leave.

But as soon as he touched a bit of power, he found that the space around him became viscous.

He subconsciously glanced at Lin Zhao, who was meditating and recovering.

"Lin Zhao, even if you've been promoted now, you're no match for me. How dare you block my way?!"

Lin Zhao gave him a defiant smile: "Would you like to try?"

Gu Yan noticed Lin Zhao's change and pierced the body of the Eighth Priest with a single spear thrust.

"Lin Zhao, calm down and don't let the power of the evil thoughts from another world dominate your consciousness!"

Lin Zhao snapped out of her daze and realized that she had indeed absorbed too much power at once, showing a tendency to become somewhat priestly.

She took a deep breath, nodded, and began to refine the power within her body.

……

Wild and evil territory, surrounded by mountains.

A figure in jade-white suddenly moved, and then he sighed.

He said in a voice only he could hear, "We miscalculated. We actually failed to completely turn Lin Zhao into a priest this time?"

Then, he sneered: "Eight priests, nine priests, two pieces of trash."

When writing scenes between Youli and Lin Zhao, whether overt or covert, there's always a feeling that their best enemy is the couple who were once the most loving.
