Chapter 895 Accidental Injury
The Ancient Dragon Clan Matriarch's strength was clearly on par with the Eighth Priest, but because the Eighth Priest had no desire to fight and only wanted to escape quickly, he was forced to take several blows from the Ancient Dragon Clan Matriarch's Silver Dragon Spear.

As the fight went on, the eight priests also got angry.

After all, if he had really gone all out in the fight, he wouldn't have been suppressed and constantly attacked by the Ancient Dragon Clan's matriarch.

"Gu Yan, don't be so presumptuous! Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"

The matriarch of the ancient dragon clan dodged one of his attacks and fixed her gaze on him: "Of course you are not afraid of me, but your god did not know you came here and did not give permission, did he? Even if I capture you today, or even if I seriously injure you and your god finds out, I am very curious how many tricks you will still have left when you go back?"

The eight priests, their sore spots exposed, turned cold.

Indeed, his purpose in coming out this time was simply to join forces with the Ninth Priest to kill Lin Zhao.

The Ninth Priest was determined to kill Lin Zhao because of personal grudges, while the Eighth Priest was simply seduced and bewitched by the Ninth Priest's words.

After all, which priest hasn't dreamed of gaining the power of the high priest?

But over the years, ever since they came to know the high priest and pledged allegiance to the gods, they have never known how ordinary priests or followers of the gods could rise to the position of high priest.

If they still had the time and means to find a way to secure the position of Second Priest, the existence of the High Priest was simply too mysterious and powerful. It wasn't until Lin Zhao appeared that they realized the position of the Seven Star Palace's Tian Shu Star Lord was prepared for the High Priest.

The Lord of Tian Shu Star possesses the power to command the seven stars, the very source that makes all evil thoughts from other realms below the gods submit.

Previously, Lin Zhao's power to summon evil thoughts from other worlds was only on par with those of the priests because Lin Zhao did not acknowledge his position as the Lord of Tian Shu Star, nor did he fully unleash the power of Tian Shu Star.

In this battle against the Nine Priests, Lin Zhao's power as the Lord of the Heavenly Pivot Star was truly unleashed.

Thinking of this, the eight priests were somewhat hesitant to go back and see the gods.

Because according to the gods' prediction, Lin Zhao's Tian Shu Star power would not have fully awakened so quickly.

Thinking of the gods' methods, the Eighth Priest felt that cooperating with the Ninth Priest was utterly foolish.

How could he possibly think that Shen Han, a good-for-nothing who has only managed to reach the position of Ninth Priest after all these years, is capable of scheming against the successor of the High Priest?
A tiny bit of crimson light shone in the Eighth Priest's hand: "Gu Yan, in a head-on battle, I am indeed no match for you, but if I want to leave today, you can't stop me!"

He gave Lin Zhao, who was digesting the evil power from another world within his body, a deep look and snorted coldly.

If it weren't for that brat Lin Zhao interfering, I probably would have run away by now!

The Eighth Priest moved swiftly and appeared behind Lin Zhao in the next moment.

Gu Yan's pupils contracted. She had thought that the Eighth Priest was making such a big show of things to confront her head-on, but she didn't expect him to go to find Lin Zhao.

Not to mention that Lin Zhao is currently in a crucial stage of consolidating his cultivation, Gu Yan wouldn't dare to let the Eighth Priest do anything to Lin Zhao at this time, given his somewhat strange behavior just now!

Gu Yan threw out the silver spear in her hand.

The Eighth Priest seemed to have anticipated Gu Yan's move, and with a smirk, he looked at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan's mind went blank for a moment.

Because the thrown silver spear actually pierced through the Eighth Priest's body and entered Lin Zhao's body?!
That was just an illusion cast by the Eighth Priest?! She knew it! How could Lin Zhao not set up a barrier around himself while consolidating his cultivation?

But it's too late to regret now.

The Silver Dragon Spear is naturally equipped with the ability to break through barriers, and the Eighth Priest recognized this and deliberately guided her to use it.

Looking at Lin Zhao's trembling body, Gu Yan wanted to slap herself. How could she be so brainless as to throw the gun away like that?

The next moment, Gu Yan's eyes flashed with blood-red light, and she transformed into a giant purple-gold dragon radiating brilliant silver light.

Ancient Dragon's Dharma Body!

In her Ancient Dragon form, Gu Yan instantly spotted the Eighth Priest hiding in this space, trying to find an opening to escape. With a roar, she tore at the Eighth Priest.

The Eighth Priest knew that his move would inevitably anger Gu Yan, but he did not expect that Gu Yan would directly summon the Ancient Dragon Avatar to fight against him.

The ancient dragon's avatar, at the level of a Celestial Venerable, is already infinitely close to the level of a god.

The eight priests had no choice but to summon their weapons, their gazes occasionally drifting towards Lin Zhao's direction, as if they were still looking for an opportunity to break through from Lin Zhao's side and leave.
"Lin Zhao was seriously injured by you, aren't you going to go and see her?! Aren't you afraid that if you hurt Lin Zhao, the Demon Ancestor will be at odds with you?" The Eighth Priest couldn't help but say after barely managing to withstand a few bites from Gu Yan.

He and Gu Yan have different strengths. Gu Yan is good at frontal combat and close-quarters fighting, which is also the strongest talent of the ancient dragon clan. He, on the other hand, is good at stealth and escape, and then launching a surprise attack.

Escape is now impossible due to Lin Zhao's Heaven and Earth Blockade, and concealment is also rendered useless under Gu Yan's Ancient Dragon Dharma Body state. If Lin Zhao continues to hold out, it is only a matter of time before Gu Yan is defeated.

Gu Yan naturally understood the meaning behind the Eighth Priest's words: "If I capture you now, I think Lin Zhao's injuries will heal faster. Besides... if the Demon Ancestor wants to punish me, I will accept it!"

Seeing that Gu Yan was unyielding, the Eighth Priest was also somewhat annoyed.

His escape skills were no joke!
The next moment, his figure disappeared from Gu Yan's attack range again and appeared near Lin Zhao, who was holding a silver spear, his face pale and his body somewhat hunched, a fierce glint in his eyes.

"I refuse to believe that a mere Immortal Emperor's defensive formation can stop even a fraction of my power!" With that, the Eighth Priest unleashed a palm strike.

Before the palm strike even landed, golden phoenixes rose around Lin Zhao, encircling her in a protective circle. However, as the Eighth Priest's palm struck down, the golden phoenixes dimmed further, as if they were about to disappear at any moment.

Upon seeing this, the Eighth Priest smiled, while Gu Yan's gaze turned cold.

The Eighth Priest raised his hand to dodge Gu Yan's attack and then struck out with another palm. This time, Gu Yan was smart and bypassed Lin Zhao to catch the Eighth Priest's palm, so that it would not land on Lin Zhao's defensive formation.

"I'd like to see who's faster!" The Eighth Priest sneered, his figure slowly turning into a blood-red mist.

This is the embodiment of the priest.

The priest's combat power will be greatly enhanced when he manifests his true form, which is equivalent to the ancient dragons unleashing their ancient dragon avatars.

Gu Yan turned around and glanced at Lin Zhao, who was still meditating. She silently apologized to him, then looked at the Eighth Priest, her fighting spirit reignited.

"Don't think that just because you've increased your speed, I can't do anything to you!"

As the Eighth Priest's figure blurred, his voice also became more ethereal, drifting faintly in the sky: "So you're planning to just keep watching Lin Zhao fight with me?"
