Chapter 846 The Final Battle
boom--!
The next instant, an unprecedented explosion resounded throughout the entire outer star sea.

What was swallowed by the destructive storm was not only the physical form and spirit of yet another patriarch of a powerful family, but also his Dao Lord domain.

There is also the entire Sumeru Rune Array.

At this very moment, precisely because the Sumeru power contained within this rune array was detonated, in an instant, all the powerful magic power that the ancestors of various aristocratic families had previously poured into the rune array also surged out of thin air into the destructive storm.

It is precisely because of the surge of energy in that instant.

Even the entire destructive storm collapsed during the disintegration process.

The bright, incandescent sun instantly illuminated all directions.

Under such a bright light that contained the flames of destruction, all the myriad phenomena of the world paled in comparison.

This also included the pale faces of the patriarchs of various aristocratic families.

After a long, suffocating period of several breaths, the surging energy flow dispersed.

All those who cultivate can truly see it.

At the center of the True Yang Great Sun, Yue Hanzhang, surrounded by six Thunderfire Devouring Furnaces, was constantly devouring a massive amount of dissipated energy.

Visible to the naked eye.

Yue Hanzhang's originally listless appearance and the brilliance of his Daoist arts were rapidly increased under the refinement of these energies.

Almost as soon as the patriarchs of the various aristocratic families sensed the approaching forces, Yue Hanzhang had already returned to his peak.

Even because of the continuous achievements in battle.

The deaths of three patriarchs of powerful families and three top-tier Inner Realm Dao Lords transformed into an invisible aura surrounding Yue Hanzhang, guiding his spirit and energy to bloom even more vigorously.

For a time, Yue Hanzhang's burgeoning arrogance even surpassed that of his most prosperous period.

But this was precisely the kind of Yue Hanzhang he was.

The patriarchs of the various aristocratic families, on the contrary, relaxed.

Yes.

It is true that they have suffered repeated losses of their comrades.

It is true that the Twelve Yuan Chen Grand Formation collapsed.

It is true that Yue Hanzhang's arrogance reached an extreme.

But it was precisely at this moment that they truly saw the hope and opportunity to eliminate Yue Hanzhang.

What truly troubled the cultivators about Yue Hanzhang was his instant kill of the elderly man; all subsequent victories were, in reality, merely a continuation of that instant kill.

The Sumeru Talisman Array, lacking the twelve Earthly Branches, not only failed to achieve effective results against Yue Hanzhang, but also instead restricted the patriarchs of various aristocratic families.

Yue Hanzhang grasped and seized upon that slight discord, which further led to the deaths of the Lei family patriarch and the master of the talisman array.

However, Yue Hanzhang's initial advantage could only be maintained to this extent.

The patriarchs of the various clans lost the protection of the Sumeru Talisman Array, but they also lost that slight disharmony.

At this moment, Yue Hanzhang made another move.

At most, only one patriarch of a noble family can perish.

However, when Yue Hanzhang reappears from the collapsing storm, he will face the combined attack of the patriarchs of various aristocratic families at the same moment!

He was no longer able to achieve any results.

Yue Hanzhang grafted the bridge between form and spirit, making his killing move that invaded the inner world almost unsolvable.

However, there is a prerequisite for such a killer move to be effective: it must be able to bridge the gap between form and spirit.

Yue Hanzhang acted repeatedly.

The methods he relied on had already been figured out by the patriarchs of the various aristocratic families.

If, at the very moment Yue Hanzhang attacks and enters the Dao Lord's domain, one abandons that corner of the domain before it collapses, then Yue Hanzhang will not be able to extend the process of its collapse into his own realm of form, spirit, and Dao.

and.

Even if another domain were to collapse, if the profound Daoist aura of the Inner Realm Dao Lord level were to guard against it at this moment on the boundary between one's physical form and spirit.

With his current [All-Seeing Eye] alone, Yue Hanzhang probably wouldn't be able to open the bridge between form and spirit so smoothly again.

After all, at the Inner Realm Dao Lord level, one's form, spirit, and Daoist methods have begun to merge. The more profound one's Daoist foundation, the more profound one's resilience at the level of form and spirit.

If you can't beat them, you can always defend against them; if you're not confident you can defend against them, you can always run away.

Having already anticipated Yue Hanzhang's methods, the patriarchs of the various aristocratic families would always find a way to deal with it if they didn't want to die.

In contrast, consider Yue Hanzhang.

He lost his sharpest claws.

They even lost their most crucial trump card, which was their very life.

The miracle that once unfolded when facing the patriarch of the Fu family was repeated once again.

But the key.

After replicating this miracle, Yue Hanzhang was unable to instantly return to his peak after killing the master of the talisman array. Instead, he could only recover little by little by absorbing the energy turbulence through the Thunderfire Devouring Furnace.

The world always imposes numerous invisible limitations on such miraculous and magnificent Taoist practices.

At this moment, the patriarchs of the various families had already guessed that this secret technique that could instantly return one to the peak must have a limited number of uses in a short period of time!
This also means.

From this moment on, every blow that falls on Yue Hanzhang will directly erode his physical form, spirit, and the origin of his Dao!
Such a thought, which could be described as a "surprise," instantly surged into the minds of the patriarchs of the various noble families.

And in an instant.

An old woman among the patriarchs of the aristocratic family suddenly transmitted a wave of energy, a mixture of heartbeat and spiritual resonance resembling a royal edict, to a distant place.

Swish—swish—swish—

then.

Almost exactly at the moment when Yue Hanzhang's blazing aura was fully reflected in the boundless sea of ​​stars.

Then, the sound of six Sumeru teleportation instantly exploded in the vicinity of this starry sky.

Add to that the nine patriarchs of powerful families still remaining here. That makes fifteen peak Inner Realm Dao Lords of this era!

In an instant.

As the six patriarchs of the aristocratic families appeared, six avatars of the same kind simultaneously materialized around Yue Hanzhang.

The shared essence of form and spirit, along with the aura of Daoist principles, connects Yue Hanzhang and his external avatar.

"Do you think that just because I, Yue, have lost the secret method to return to my peak, I can be manipulated by others?"

"Wrong! Just like the master of that rune array just now, completely wrong!"

"The six external manifestations are connected to the origin of the Dao through their form and spirit."

"This means that Yue has six more chances to fight to the death! Six chances to trade his life for another!"

"You fifteen men, think carefully about which six you will send to die!"

The roar of a beast in its twilight years is most capable of shaking one's soul.

Because the roar at this moment contained a layer of reckless ferocity.

the first time.

Yue Hanzhang's eyes seemed to have lost their ever-present lightness and intelligence, and a sense of madness began to gradually emerge between his brows.

The hawk-like eyes, with their eagle-like gaze and wolf-like stare, gradually turned bloodshot.

The seven emotions dissipate.

The six desires are diminished.

Pure rage and murderous intent, along with an intense desire for destruction, were burning fiercely, fueled by all his thoughts and intentions!

For a while.

Seeing this, all the patriarchs of the noble families froze in place, no longer daring to approach Yue Hanzhang.

And this moment.

Yue Hanzhang simulates emotions through the sonata of a mechanized mind.

Yet, without leaving a trace, it exerted all its efforts to capture the details of every ripple and fluctuation of starlight in the starry sky during its "eagle-eyed and wolf-like" sweeping gaze.

Are the collapse storms caused by the deaths of these people enough for Lin Laogui to accomplish in one fell swoop?
this moment.

Yue Hanzhang had even stopped thinking about this issue.

Because he has done the best he can as a "bait".

This will be the largest base that humanity has ever conquered since it first set foot in the boundless starry sea!
From that moment on, Yue Hanzhang was constantly on the brink of life and death!
The re-condensation of the Return to Heaven and Earth Talisman requires time and the consumption of extraordinary magical power.

Unless absolutely necessary, Yue Hanzhang would never use the six lives brought by his six external avatars. Once he used this secret technique of life and death reincarnation, it would be tantamount to Yue Hanzhang cutting himself off from the exploration of the path of cultivation.

At this moment, there is still a silent standoff and stalemate between them.

It was merely a continuation of the lingering influence of Yue Hanzhang's previous acts of killing.

It was simply that Yue Hanzhang had established a direct connection with the Six Paths' external avatars, and that the cultivators were unaware of the core details of the "Transformation Technique of Carrying the Dao and Inheriting Life".

However, such deception can only last for a while and cannot last in the long run.

Fortunately.

Through the manifestation of the six external avatars, Yue Hanzhang's mind had silently "smuggled" most of itself into the avatar of [Nine Palaces Change of Appearance].

If Old Ghost Lin arrives too late, Yue Hanzhang will directly detonate this external avatar and forcefully blast open a Sumeru Passage leading to the star field already explored by the Dao Alliance!

The demise of the master of the talisman array and the dissipation of the Twelve Yuan Chen Killing Array certainly lifted the restrictions on the ancestors of the various aristocratic families, but it also freed Yue Hanzhang from the shackles of the Sumeru Cover.

Where is Old Ghost Lin? Old Ancestor Lin! Come quickly and save him!

If you don't come soon, I, Yue, am really going to run away!
Inhale—exhale—

The auras of the various cultivators intertwined.

The interplay of Daoist energy between the true body, the six incarnations, and the fifteen inner realm Dao Lords.

This vast and boundless starry sky, in this brief period of time, was plunged into a silent purgatory that could almost be described as torture.

There was clearly no flow of Daoist energy from the Twelve Earthly Branches.

But each breath seemed to be stretched to an extremely long state amidst the interplay of Daoist rhythms and the oppressive silence.

then.

Such is the chaotic passage of time.

I don't know exactly how much time has passed.

Finally, one person couldn't hold back any longer.

His suspended figure suddenly took a step forward.

Yue Hanzhang, who appeared fierce and irrational but was actually on edge, took a step almost the instant the other person changed his posture and moved sideways toward the location of the external avatar of [Nine Palaces Change of Form].

Pulled around and moved the whole body.

It was clear that in the next instant, the figures of all the patriarchs of the powerful families would move.

Accompanied by a sharp, piercing sound.

Accompanied by a chilling sigh that resounded almost in everyone's ears and in everyone's hearts.

moment.

As the energy-rich zone formed by the deaths of the three Dao Lords vanished, all the colorful starlight around them disappeared in an instant, and a scarlet gale enveloped everyone's figures.

Then, everyone heard Lin Laogui's slightly disappointed voice.

Are you the only ones?

"Whatever——"
