After guarding the gates for a hundred years, I drove the Heavenly Saint to madness.

Within the Yin-Yang Dust Array, a deathly silence spread.

Yuanshi Tianzun held the Pangu Banner and stood on the clouds.

He could clearly feel those three gazes like thorns in his back. His face was ashen, and he remained silent.

It didn't break open.

The mighty Jade Purity Saint, wielding the Pangu Banner, the supreme treasure for offense, launched a full-scale attack for the duration of an incense stick burning, yet failed to budge the protective light barrier of a mortal pass even slightly!

If such a record were to become known, Yuanshi Tianzun would surely become a laughingstock in the prehistoric world.

Holding the Seven Treasures Tree, Zhunti looked at the faint light below, a calculating glint in his eyes.

He stepped forward, breaking the awkward silence.

"Senior Brother Yuanshi."

The Taoist Zhunti spoke gently, but with a hint of probing.

"This formation is indeed strange; that layer of light seems to be able to swallow up all magical power."

"Since we've been unable to break through after such a long siege, should we all join forces and work together to defeat them?"

These words, when they reached the ears of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, were nothing short of a slap in the face!

This was clearly a veiled criticism of his incompetence, that he couldn't even break the formation set up by a third-generation disciple and needed someone else to clean up the mess!

The bones in Yuanshi Tianzun's fingers, gripping the banner pole, turned white. His chest heaved slightly, and anger surged in his eyes. He was about to refuse in order to save face.

However, before Yuanshi Tianzun could speak, Taiqing Laozi, who had been concentrating with his eyes closed, suddenly changed his expression.

Even the usually inactive Taiqing Laozi could not maintain his composure and suddenly looked down at his cuffs.

"Buzz—!"

A mournful sword cry resounded deep within the soul of Taiqing Laozi.

"not good!"

Taiqing Laozi shouted angrily, "The Taiji Diagram can't stop Junior Brother Tongtian anymore! He's coming out!"

Upon hearing this, all three sages were startled.

The Tongtian Sect Master is in charge of killing and destruction, and his destructive sword intent is unparalleled in the primordial world.

Previously, Taiqing Laozi was able to swallow it with the Taiji Diagram, but that was only because it was worried about the lives of its disciples below, and was also suppressed by the combined forces of four supreme treasures.

Now that Tongtian has realized what's happening inside the Taiji Diagram, once he goes completely mad, the Taiji Diagram alone won't be able to contain this saint who is number one in killing.

"Junior Brother Tongtian's sword intent is too sharp; the vast world within the Taiji Diagram has been cleaved open with cracks."

Taiqing Laozi spoke rapidly, his voice heavy with seriousness: "If he were to break free from the primordial chaos and emerge from the map, the wrath of the sages in their battle would surely shatter the primordial earth's veins!"

"Zhunti, Jieyin, follow me to the chaotic void and lure him out of the primordial world to suppress him!"

Having said that, Taiqing Laozi disregarded the Jiepai Pass in front of him and suddenly swung his whisk.

"Sizzle!"

The void was torn apart, and a rift leading to the endless chaos beyond the Thirty-Three Heavens took shape.

Taiqing Laozi turned his head and hurriedly instructed Yuanshi Tianzun, "This place is now in the care of Junior Brother Yuanshi!"

Before he finished speaking, Taiqing Laozi transformed into a wisp of pure energy and vanished into the chaotic void.

Zhunti and Jieyin exchanged a glance, both realizing the gravity of the situation. Neither dared to be careless; stepping on golden lotuses, they followed Taiqing Laozi into the crevice.

The crack slowly closed until it disappeared.

Outside Jiepai Pass, deathly silence returned once more.

But this deathly silence left Yuanshi Tianzun with an even more suffocating and embarrassing situation.

The three sages hurriedly left to deal with the real threat, rightfully passing the trouble of Jiepai Pass to him.

Yuanshi Tianzun stood alone on the clouds, looking down at the city below, which remained safe and sound.

Lao Tzu's last words were like salt sprinkled on a wound.

He, a dignified saint, seemed to have become a pawn left behind specifically to break the formation, and a pawn that couldn't even shake the formation!

"Xiao! Wu! Ji!"

Yuanshi Tianzun took a deep breath.

With that breath, the resentment in his eyes completely transformed into a burning rage.

He no longer cared about maintaining a saintly demeanor.

Because the Yin-Yang Micro-Dust Array set up by Taiqing Laozi is still in place, this area of ​​millions of miles is still sealed off, completely isolated from the outside world.

This means that as long as the boundary of the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Array is not broken, no matter how he attacks or how much destructive aftershock he causes, it will not affect the Primordial World.

He had no more scruples!

"Today, I'll see how long your light barrier can hold up!"

Above the head of the Primordial Celestial Venerable, auspicious clouds from all heavens rolled, and ten thousand golden lamps and garlands hung down.

He gripped the Pangu Banner tightly with both hands, frantically pouring his vast sage essence into this creation treasure.

Rumble—!!!

The microscopic world began to tremble, and the Pangu Banner burst forth with dazzling light. As the banner fluttered, the phantom of the creator god faintly appeared.

"Crush me!!"

Yuanshi Tianzun roared and forcefully waved the Pangu Banner.

Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!

Thousands upon thousands of chaotic sword energies transformed into an inverted Milky Way, carrying the immense power to tear apart the primordial chaos, pouring down from the heavens.

Each sword aura was enough to make even a saint change color; they intertwined into a destructive torrent, sweeping fiercely across the light screen above Jiepai Pass.

……

Inside Jiepai Pass.

In the backyard of the General's Mansion, the Holy Mother Jinling, the Holy Mother Wudang, the Holy Mother Guiling, and thousands of Jiejiao disciples who had retreated into the city had closed their eyes in despair.

The moment Yuanshi Tianzun swung down the Pangu Banner, the shadow of death made them give up their resistance.

That was a sage's angry strike; a deafening roar exploded overhead, and the earth trembled slightly.

That was a sage's angry strike; a deafening roar exploded overhead, and the earth trembled slightly.

However, ten breaths passed. A hundred breaths passed, but the imagined agony of the city wall collapsing did not come.

The Holy Mother of Golden Spirit opened her eyes in surprise.

The sky above Jiepai Pass was completely submerged by endless chaotic sword energy. A destructive torrent raged and slashed at what lay above.

However, between the torrent of sword energy and Jiepai Pass, a faint light steadily stretched across the heavens and earth.

Despite the rampaging and pounding of the chaotic sword energy outside, the light barrier only rippled, blocking all the destructive power outside the city.

"How is this possible?" The Holy Mother of the Tortoise Spirit stared blankly at the sky, muttering to herself.

The tens of thousands of merchant cavalrymen inside the pass, as well as all the disciples of the Jie Sect, were all dumbfounded at this moment.

They watched as the Primordial Celestial Venerable, like a madman, stood on the clouds, constantly waving the Pangu Banner and bombarding the barrier.

The world-destroying power contrasted sharply with the tranquility inside the light curtain.

"It's blocked...it really is blocked!" a rogue immortal from the Jie Sect shouted with ecstasy.

"Even a sage personally intervened, and couldn't breach this city!"

Cheers quickly swept across the entire Jiepai Pass.

All the fear transformed into admiration for the figure atop the city wall.

To be honest, before this, none of them had thought they would survive. After all, the Grand Array of Ten Thousand Immortals had been broken, and their Sage Master was imprisoned; they had all resigned themselves to their fate.

Unexpectedly, at this moment when everyone was in despair, Yuanshi Tianzun was actually blocked, which was beyond their comprehension.

On the city wall, Xiao Wuji still kept his hands behind his back.

The wind whipped his hempen robes as he silently gazed at the saint above the clouds, who was relentlessly bombarding him and had lost all composure.

"Do as you please."

Xiao Wuji's lips curled up slightly, revealing a mocking smile.

"If you fail to break through this formation today, the Sage's reputation will be completely ruined."

He was well aware of the defenses of the Primordial Pure Land. As long as he did not leave the city, the Boundary Gate Pass would be an impregnable barrier that the Primordial Heavenly Venerable could never break through.
