Chapter 140 The Gap Between the Venerable Realm and the Array Realm!
Outside the mountain gate of Butian Pavilion.

At this moment, Granny Xihua, along with a group of disciples of the Patching Heaven Sect, surrounded the entire Patching Heaven Pavilion's protective array like dark clouds pressing down on a city.

Three elderly men with white hair stood solemnly beside her.

The three stood in a triangular formation, their robes fluttering even without wind, and faint phantom images of dragons and tigers swirling around them. With each breath, they caused the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to tremble.

They were all elders of the Heaven-Mending Sect, and their cultivation levels were all at the Venerable Realm!

Previously, after Lin Dong crossed over to the Void God Realm and left, Granny Xihua learned that Zhu Chen and the others had all evacuated, so she immediately led her people back to the headquarters of the Heaven-Mending Sect.

In order to obtain the complete True Phoenix Treasure Technique, she immediately activated the sect's teleportation array, bringing a group of sect elders and disciples here as soon as possible.

Her sole purpose in this trip was to bring Zhu Chen back to the Patching Heaven Sect for trial at all costs.

The complete True Phoenix Treasure Technique is something the Heaven-Mending Sect is determined to obtain, and no one can stop them!

Yuechan stood in the middle of the crowd, dressed in white, as white as snow, like a fairy descending to earth.

But at this moment, her gaze was fixed on the mountain gate of Butian Pavilion below, and she couldn't help but feel uneasy.

For some reason, ever since she arrived at the gate of the Butian Pavilion, she suddenly felt a strange sense of tension, as if something big was about to happen, making her unable to calm down.

At this moment, the great formation outside the gate of Butian Pavilion suddenly opened, and several figures flashed out from within the formation, arriving in front of Granny Xihua and the others in an instant, like lightning.

It was the Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion and Ancestor Mu Yan, among others.

When the Pavilion Master of Butian Pavilion saw that Granny Xihua had brought three Venerables with her, including the Holy Maiden of the Ancient Sect, Fairy Yuechan, his heart sank.

The highest-level cultivator here is only at the Array Formation Realm, which is nothing compared to the Venerable Realm, like a firefly versus the bright moon.

The other side sent a total of four Venerable Realm cultivators this time, plus that Holy Maiden who has a very high status in the Upper Realm. This lineup is really giving their Heaven-Mending Pavilion too much credit!
"Grandma Xihua, Holy Maiden Yuechan, what brings you to my Butian Pavilion with such a large entourage?"

The Pavilion Master of Butian Pavilion took a few steps forward in the air, clasped his hands in greeting to Granny Xihua and Yuechan, and asked.

He knew the purpose of Granny Xihua and the others' visit, but still politely said some polite words.

After all, they are a major sect from the upper realm, so we still have to give them face.

Granny Xihua did not immediately answer the question from the Pavilion Master of Butian Pavilion, but instead glanced at Yuechan to the side without making a sound.

Seeing Yuechan nod slightly, she stepped out from the crowd, leaning on her cane, and looked down at the people of the Butian Pavilion, saying, "I heard that a young elder surnamed Zhu has recently arrived at your Butian Pavilion. I have come here specifically to pay him a visit. I hope you will all bring him out so that I may meet him..."

Although Granny Xihua spoke politely, her tone carried an attitude that brooked no refusal, as if she were giving an order.

This is clearly a threat, a blatant threat!
The Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion smiled calmly: "That's really unfortunate. Elder Zhu has been in seclusion recently and is about to break through, so it's inconvenient for him to come out and see people!"

"It's alright. If he refuses to come out to see me, I can condescend to go and see him..."

Granny Xihua already knew that the Butian Pavilion would reject her, so she simply stopped hiding her intentions and made them clear.

She raised her cane and forcefully thrust it into the air beneath her feet.

With a loud bang, a terrifying aura of a Venerable One spread out, and the Pavilion Master of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion and the others were immediately shaken back several steps.

Xiong Fei and several elders of the Butian Pavilion with lower cultivation levels coughed up blood on the spot.

"Your Patching Heaven Sect is going too far..."

A flash of anger crossed Ancestor Mu Yan's eyes. He quickly formed hand seals, mobilizing his magical power.

In an instant, a massive lightning array materialized before him, blocking the Venerable aura emanating from Granny Xihua.

"—Boom!"

At the same time, countless bolts of lightning intertwined in the sky, roaring like thunder dragons surrounding Ancestor Mu Yan.

Thunder roared, its might shaking the entire land!
Ancestor Mu Yan's body was bathed in these lightning bolts, like a thunder god descending, with every move he made carrying the terrifying power of the thunder laws.

He took a step forward, unleashing boundless thunderous power to shield the people of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion behind him, his eyes flashing like lightning as he stared directly at Granny Xihua.

"Not bad, the Thunder Dao Law..."

Granny Xihua was slightly moved when she saw the lightning array behind Ancestor Muyan, but she quickly regained her cold expression.

By inscribing the power of thunder between heaven and earth into array seals and then injecting them into one's own body to form a self-contained array, cultivators who break through to the Array Realm in this way are indeed stronger than cultivators of the same level.

Unfortunately, her opponent's cultivation level was only at the Array Formation Realm, and he was not yet able to pose a threat to her.

Granny Xihua took a step forward, her figure appearing in front of Ancestor Muyan like a ghost.

"—Thunderous Boom!"

Ancestor Mu Yan's expression changed drastically, and he pointed forward without hesitation.

In an instant, an astonishing bolt of lightning descended from the sky and struck Granny Xihua directly.

Thunder rumbled and deafening roars echoed across the sky, as if they were about to overturn the entire world!
However, at that moment, a flower stamen shimmering with seven-colored light appeared outside Granny Xihua's body.

The flower's stamen acted like an indestructible barrier, completely isolating the lightning bolt from the outside.

No matter how violent the surrounding lightning was, it couldn't penetrate the flower's stamen even slightly!
"A mere Formation Realm cultivator is not qualified to harm this old woman..."

Granny Xihua pushed upwards with one hand, and the lightning pillar carrying the vast power of heaven collapsed on its own, turning into countless bolts of lightning that dissipated into the world.

She looked up at Ancestor Mu Yan, her eyes flashing with disdain, as if she were looking at an ant.

Then, she pointed her cane at Ancestor Mu Yan.

As a beam of colorful light flashed by, a terrifying force punched a fist-sized hole into the chest of Ancestor Mu Yan.

"puff--"

Ancestor Mu Yan spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body seemed to have been hit by a heavy blow. He was suddenly thrown backward and crashed towards the gate of Butian Pavilion.

The two elders of Butian Pavilion wanted to go and help him, but they were directly pushed back a thousand meters away by Granny Xihua's Venerable aura.

After regaining their footing, the two, unable to withstand Granny Xihua's oppressive aura, both coughed up blood, their faces turning as pale as paper.

The gap between Venerable Realm cultivators and Array Realm cultivators was like an insurmountable chasm, shattering the mental state of all the elders of the Heaven-Mending Pavilion.
