Dao Cheng Gui Xian

Chapter 445 Retreat into the Sealed Spirit Realm, Suffering Heavy Losses
Above the northern border of Xinjiang, the sky seemed to have shattered.

The terrifying power of the void devoured everything.

Dao Yan, Huang Shigong, and the Ninth Prince stood as firmly as rocks on the shore.

Under the flow of Daoist energy, the power of the void, capable of shattering the Dharma Realm, was regarded as nothing by the three of them!

The three of them were preoccupied with nothing else; the blazing sun dimmed, and the primordial chaos stagnated.

The Ninth Prince's two heads were covered in cracks, the stacked black altars were in disarray, and his body, which had been integrated with the Northern Frontier Pass, was completely broken.

Judging from the state of the three parties, Yan Yang and Xuanhuang Qi obviously still have some strength left, but Dao Yan and Huang Shigong can no longer activate the Daoist energy within them.

After gritting their teeth and persevering for more than ten breaths, the three streams of Daoist energy simultaneously vanished into the void.

Despite facing two opponents alone, the Ninth Prince was not completely at a disadvantage!

Of course, the Ninth Prince also paid a great price for this. First, he sacrificed his seven Dharma Realms, and then the Northern Border Pass of the Sealed Spirit World was also shattered.

In a sense, it is no longer possible for the Ninth Prince to advance to the Great Venerable realm.

Unless he can find such a heavenly and earthly seal again!

Having lost the foundation of its own Seven Realms, things are clearly not so easy anymore.

The Ninth Prince has two heads and four eyes, all blood-red!
He was so close, so very close to succeeding!
Damn Dao Yan, Huang Shigong, and that damned brat Zi Zhen!
A shadow flickered behind him, and two hands emerged from the shadows. The Ninth Prince directly plucked out one of the white-haired and yellow-haired men's eyeballs.

With a thought, one flew towards Dao Yan and Huang Shigong, and the other towards Zi Zhen Daoren.

"burst!"

As they drew near, the Ninth Prince roared, and without waiting for the final scene, his two heads opened their enormous mouths and began to devour the sky and earth of Jiangbei Pass.

Li Wushou, in the form of a golden bee spirit, intended to avoid being devoured by the Ninth Prince, but suddenly heard the Ninth Prince telepathically shout:

"Don't move. Retreat together and take me to Zhongtian Pass!"

Li Wushou's mind stirred, his flapping body paused, and then he and most of the remaining Dao of Heaven and Earth from Jiangbei Pass were swallowed into the body of the Ninth Prince.

Outside, Dao Yan and Huang Shigong instinctively wanted to reactivate the Yan Yang and Xuan Huang Banners.

But the moment they tried to activate it, their respective Dharma realms emitted a cracking sound as if they were overwhelmed. They both paused at the same time, and the next instant, the Ninth Prince's white-haired eye exploded in front of them.

A terrifying white light shone in all directions. Dao Yan waved his hand and grabbed the blazing sun in the sky, blocking it in front of the white light.

On the other side, Huang Shigong withdrew and stood in front of Zizhen Daoist. He shook the Xuanhuang spear in his hand, which transformed back into the Xuanhuang flag and planted it directly in front of the two of them.

Not to mention that Zizhen Daoist's Dharma Realm still protects Kunshan, Zizhen Daoist first saw through the Ninth Prince's conspiracy, and then broke through the Jiangbei Pass to guide Yanyang and Xuanhuang, and also saved Huang Shigong's life!

If he were to sit idly by and watch Zi Zhen die under the Xuanhuang Law, where would he put his face?

This time, breaking through the barrier was already embarrassing enough!

The Xuanhuang Banner fluttered in the wind, blocking all the Xuanhuang power bursting from Huang Tou Zhi Tong's eyes as Huang Shi Gong waved it.

With this delay, the Ninth Prince had already broken through the Northern Frontier Pass and escaped from the void.

In fact, Huang Shigong and Dao Yan knew perfectly well that even if they disregarded the life and death of Zizhen Daoist, they could not stop the Ninth Prince unless they risked everything and used their resources to activate the Flaming Sun and the Xuanhuang Banner.

The two of them would certainly not choose that!
This outcome was almost inevitable!
Dao Yan extinguished the residual power of the Ninth Prince's self-destruction of his eyeballs and stepped in front of Daoist Zi Zhen.

He patted Master Zizhen on the shoulder with a sentimental expression and said:

"Zizhen, thank you so much! This time, it's all thanks to your help!"

Huang Shigong, who had suppressed the destructive power of his other eyeball, put away the Xuanhuang Banner, solemnly bowed to Zizhen Daoist, and thanked him, saying:

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Zizhen, for saving my life on several occasions! I, Huang Shigong, will remember this kindness. If anyone else needs my help, please let me know!"

Master Zizhen waved his hand, somewhat flattered.

"There's no need for that. It concerns the safety of the Central Region, and Zi Zhen has only done his best! The main thing is to rely on the two Grand Masters to turn the tide."

Upon hearing this, both Dao Yan and Huang Shigong wore bitter expressions!

Although the northern pass was breached, the price paid was far too high.

With the Great Venerables within the Flaming Sun and Xuanhuang Banners having exhausted most of their resources, the Central Domain's offensive will inevitably be greatly reduced! In addition, four fellow cultivators at the late Nascent Soul stage perished within the pass.

This still doesn't mention the injuries and exhaustion of the two individuals!
If it weren't for Zi Zhen's two reminders, the two of them might have been trapped here.

Such a "turnaround" is truly beyond the comprehension of the two!
A moment of silence fell, and at that moment, the void began to collapse continuously.

The void storm surged into the remaining territory of the Northern Frontier Pass. Dao Yan sighed softly and said:

"Let's go out first and then talk!"

Huang Shigong and Zizhen nodded, and the three of them simultaneously flashed out from inside the Jiangbei Pass.

Not long after the three of them left, the remaining Jiangbei Pass roared incessantly and completely disappeared into the void storm.

Xueyan and the others who were guarding the outside were overjoyed when they saw Daoyan and Huang Shigong appear.

But when they saw that the two were only followed by a Taoist named Zizhen, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically!

Quietly observing the condition of the three, Dao Yan and Huang Shigong were also in extremely poor condition, and even the foundation of Yan Yang and Xuanhuang Banner had dissipated by more than half.

Until the void storm vortex was completely calmed by heaven and earth, the original site of Jiangbei Pass returned to tranquility.

Xue Yan, shocked, stepped forward to Zi Zhen and asked in astonishment:

"Where are the others?"

On the other side, the flag bearer of the Xuanhuang Territory stared at Huang Shigong in disbelief, his voice trembling as he asked:
"Master, could it be..."

Huang Shigong nodded with a grim expression, then replied to the flag bearer:
“Kunshan still exists, within Fellow Daoist Zizhen’s Dharma Realm, but his condition is not good. All the other fellow Daoists who entered the Northern Frontier Pass, except for the four of us, have perished!”

Upon hearing this, everyone was astonished.

Dao Yan and Huang Shigong, carrying the Yan Yang and Xuan Huang flags respectively, each led three late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators to the northern border.

How could such a lineup have lost four Nascent Soul cultivators?
These are four late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators!
Doesn't this mean that if they had entered it just now, they would most likely be the ones dead right now?
Who exactly is Fenglingdao hiding inside?

Wu Xia said that someone in Fengling Dao wants to break through to the Great Venerable realm. Is that true?
With such a lineup, only a Grandmaster could inflict such damage on them, right?

Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, and a wave of fear washed over them!
Then, he couldn't help but turn his gaze to Wu Xia!

If Wu Xia hadn't suddenly decided to enter the Northern Frontier Pass to kill that True Monarch of the Corpse Sealing Clan, and then made a vow to mobilize the Flaming Sun and the Xuanhuang Banner, even Dao Yan and Huang Shigong would probably be in grave danger!

Dao Yan and Huang Shigong looked around at everyone. One of them held up the blazing sun above his head and pointed it toward the sky, while the other planted the Xuanhuang flag in his hand on the mountain outside the original site of Jiangbei Pass.

The Daoist energy flowed, with the two moving up and down, separating this celestial realm into a stable boundary.

"This is a long story. Let's first clear the territory and gather everyone here. Then Huang Jingzhu and I will tell you all about it in detail!"

After Dao Yan finished speaking, Xue Yan and the others nodded silently.

The four Nascent Soul cultivators who were originally guarding the Great Sun and the Xuanhuang Palm transformed into streams of light and entered their respective territories to govern the four directions.

Blood Flame and the Flag Guardians entered the newly opened territory. They were going to set up a base here, which would then become the command territory for the Central Domain's invasion of the Northern Frontier Pass!

Dao Yan and Huang Shigong slowed down and looked up at the sky.

With the help of the Daoist principles, the two could clearly sense that three giants stood behind the sky.

One of the figures disappeared behind the sky after Xueyan and the others entered the realm. Judging from the direction of its disappearance, it was the location of Zhongtian Pass, deep within the Fengling Path!
Zhongtian Pass is the core pass for entering the inner domain of Fengling Road from the northwest!

Their original plan was to take Jiangbei Pass in one fell swoop, then drive straight into Zhongtian Pass, and then, relying on the strength of Yanyang and Xuanhuang Banner, forcefully break through Zhongtian Pass and head straight for Queshen Mountain!

But it seems we need to reconsider now!

A buzzing sound came from the void, and dark shadows flickered in front of the two.

With solemn expressions, Dao Yan and Huang Shigong bowed in unison:

"Meet the Master!"

"Greetings to the Master!"
