Six Realms Immortal Emperor

However, the fact remained that his spiritual energy was not flowing smoothly. Xu Jingtian tried to resist the pressure from his opponent while rapidly thinking of a solution. But he soon discovered that it was all in vain; the spiritual energy within his body was becoming increasingly uncontrollable!

Oh no, what should we do?

Just as Xu Jingtian was realizing something was wrong, a pleasant and melodious laugh suddenly came from the passage above.

"Tsk tsk tsk, a dignified elder is bullying a junior here. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if word gets out!"

Upon hearing this, Yue Jin's expression finally changed. Without even raising his head, he coldly said, "Hmph, I'm here disciplining my disciples; it's no longer your place to interfere!"

Although Yue Jin spoke casually, he still withdrew some of his spiritual power, which shows how much he valued the visitor.

Instantly, Xu Jingtian felt relaxed. Just as he was about to look up, two figures, one in black and one in white, floated down in front of him.

The person in black had their face veiled, making it impossible to see their formation, while the person in white was dressed entirely in white and was breathtakingly beautiful.

"Ah, Hanyan! What brings you here?" Xu Jingtian glanced at the woman in white and was speechless with surprise. But as soon as the words left his mouth, he realized that the question was completely unnecessary. At this crucial moment in the war between immortals and demons, Hanyan, as the newly promoted saintess of the demonic path, naturally had to be present on the battlefield.

As expected, Han Yan only gave Xu Jingtian a resentful glance before falling silent, seemingly following the lead of the woman in black.

Therefore, the woman in black beside her was very likely the previous Holy Maiden. Thinking this, Xu Jingtian couldn't help but glance at her a few more times, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't make out her features clearly, and he couldn't help but secretly marvel at her skill.

In fact, the woman in black was not the one who used powerful spiritual energy to block his soul from entering, as he had imagined. Instead, she was wearing a very rare light veil on her head.

"Oh, so it's an old acquaintance!" The woman in black chuckled, unconcerned about Xu Jingtian's blatant probing.

Upon hearing this, Han Yan lowered her head and remained silent, but two blushes appeared on her fair face for no apparent reason.

The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward!

Since their arrival, Xu Jingtian could sense two faint spiritual energies vying for dominance in the shadows, presumably testing each other's strength.

At this moment, Yue Jin suddenly laughed and stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "Haha, since we're all old acquaintances, things are much easier! Why don't we, the immortals and demons, put aside our disputes for now and catch up?"

Just moments ago, Yue Jin had been displaying murderous intent, but suddenly he became all smiles, leaving Xu Jingtian somewhat puzzled.

However, this was the Elder Yue Jin he was familiar with, and the overwhelming pressure emanating from him vanished without a trace. His methods were truly masterful, leaving no room for suspicion. But whether he was Yue Jin of the Brahma Sect or the ancestor of the immortal sect mentioned by the woman in black, Xu Jingtian couldn't yet figure it out.

"Pah! Who said we're old acquaintances! Besides, the immortal and demonic paths have been enemies for generations. How can it be resolved with just a word from your ancestor?" The woman in black was unmoved by this, but her tone softened considerably.

"Hmph, Tianyou! Don't be too smug. It's not that I'm afraid to fight you, it's just that I haven't killed anyone in a long time!" Yue Jin's tone became tougher upon hearing this.

"Very well! It's been a long time since I last fought anyone since I emerged from seclusion. Today is a perfect opportunity to ask the Ancestor for some pointers!" The woman in black was equally defiant.

The woman in black had essentially admitted her identity, just as Xu Jingtian had suspected. However, he was even more puzzled. In terms of seniority, this Heavenly Elegance Saintess was even more esteemed than the Three Saints of Soul Separation, and should be an elderly woman over a hundred years old. Yet, judging from her voice and appearance, she was no more than fifty.

"Hahaha, easy, easy. If the demonic path is willing to share the treasures inside with the immortal sects, this battle can be avoided." Elder Yue Jin laughed heartily, his attitude changing drastically, as if he had never uttered those provocative words.

Xu Jingtian was momentarily confused, unable to discern whether Yue Jin wanted war or peace. However, after a moment's thought, he understood their intentions and immediately cursed them as cunning old foxes.

Yue Jin did this simply to test the opponent's strength repeatedly in another way. If Saintess Tianyou showed any sign of compromise, he might immediately make a move.

"Hmph!" Saintess Tianyou merely sneered, and a powerful magical force surged out from behind her, instantly covering nearly half of the space.

Although Xu Jingtian and Han Yan were not affected by the magic, they were forced back several feet by the opponent's powerful aura.

Tianyou was demonstrating through her actions that she had long seen through the other party's tricks, and that Yuejin no longer needed to try.

"Hahaha! Actually, I really didn't want to do this either!" Yue Jin said, and his incredibly powerful spiritual energy surged out, slowly fighting against the opponent's magic power.

However, this put Xu Jingtian and Han Yan, the laborers, at a disadvantage. Their cultivation levels were far inferior to their opponent's, and they were forced into a corner by his overwhelming aura. Even so, they were still struggling to breathe under the pressure. If it weren't for Xu Jingtian's strong physique, he would likely have suffered considerable injuries by now.

"Our past grievances have nothing to do with the two younger generation. Let them go first. Does the Ancestor have any objections?" Saintess Tianyou suddenly suggested.

From this, it seems that Saintess Tianyou still cares about Hanyan quite a bit, and feels somewhat sorry to see Hanyan suffering. However, her suggestion also includes Yuejin's disciples, which sounds very "fair".

"Hahaha, that's perfect! My good disciple, you just wait for your master in front of the treasure vault!" Although Yue Jin was reluctant to let Xu Jingtian leave, he couldn't very well refuse such a "reasonable" suggestion outright.

Yue Jin's address of "my good disciple" sent chills down Xu Jingtian's spine. He had already guessed who Yue Jin was.

Among the immortal sects, only the two Supreme Ancestors of the Heavenly Mystery Sect can stand on equal footing with the Heavenly Saintess of the Demonic Path. One of these ancestors, Zhu Qiansheng, attempted to seize Xu Jingtian's body in the secret passage, but was instead harmed by Xu Jingtian, leaving him only with his Nascent Soul, which was sealed within the dark passage.

This Yue Jin must be another Supreme Ancestor, Zhu Qianli. If the other party knew about the feud between him and Zhu Qiansheng, that would be terrible. Xu Jingtian couldn't help but mutter to himself, hoping that the Holy Maiden Tianyou could outwit Yue Jin.

Therefore, upon hearing this, Xu Jingtian felt as if he had been granted a pardon. He hurriedly drew up his cold smoke and quickly stepped into the void passage. After all, he was already able to handle the "chaotic rocks" restriction here with ease.

He absolutely dared not go into the dark secret passage; Zhu Qiansheng's nascent soul might still be lingering, and if he were to run into it, he would be in serious trouble.

However, Han Yan seemed somewhat reluctant to part with Saintess Tianyou, glancing at her with concern before entering the secret passage with Xu Jingtian.
