My little sect, which disappeared a thousand years ago, has become a sacred site!

Xuanyuan Feiyue hovered a little distance away, his hands forming a seal, and his body was filled with righteous energy that surged like a river.

A giant Bagua diagram slowly rotated above his head, growing larger and more solid until it finally covered an area of ​​a thousand feet in radius.

As the Bagua diagram rotates, the eight directions—Qian, Kun, Zhen, Xun, Kan, Li, Gen, and Dui—simultaneously illuminate with brilliant light.

The Eight Trigrams Heaven-Sealing Formation!

Xuanyuan Feiyue let out a low shout, and the Bagua diagram suddenly pressed down.

The three Imperial Court Immortal Kings felt a sudden heaviness around them, as if a mountain of immense weight was pressing down on their shoulders.

Their connection with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth was instantly weakened.

The leading Imperial Court Immortal King curled his lips into a cold smile.

"Is that all you've got?"

As he finished speaking, he raised his right hand and gently clenched his fist.

The next moment—

"boom!"

An even more terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his body.

The sheer power of that aura actually managed to loosen the suppression of the Eight Trigrams Sealing Heaven Formation somewhat.

At the same time, two other Imperial Court Immortal Kings also made their moves.

One man raised his hand and waved it, and countless red sword lights flew out from his sleeve.

The sword lights were dense and numerous, like a rain of pear blossoms, covering the sky and shooting towards Zhuge Dancheng and his companions.

They intertwined and entangled with each other, eventually transforming into a giant sword net.

The other person formed a hand seal, and countless golden chains suddenly appeared in the void.

The chains were as thick as an arm, each link engraved with twisted runes, radiating an eerie golden light.

The chains, as if alive, coiled around Zhuge Dancheng and his companions from all directions.

Swords and nets block their escape route, while chains wait for the opportune moment to entangle them.

The two worked together seamlessly.

Zhuge Dancheng swung his sword, but the sword light only left a few shallow marks on the chains.

Those chains seemed to have a natural restraint on swordsmanship.

"The Imperial Court's 'Immortal-Binding Chains'!"

Xuan Yuan Feiyue's face darkened.

"Be careful! This thing can lock away immortal energy and Daoist principles!"

As he spoke, he activated the Bagua diagram, and his righteous energy transformed into countless sharp blades of energy, slashing at the chains from all directions.

Gongsun Xiangming was even more direct—he grabbed the chains that were wrapping around him and suddenly exerted force with both arms.

"Break it!"

He roared, and a purple-gold light exploded around him, tearing the Immortal-Binding Chains in two.

"Click, click, click!"

The broken chains fell downwards, and Gongsun Xiangming casually swung his hand, shattering them into dust.

But at the very moment he broke the chains—

A figure appeared silently behind him.

It is that leading Immortal King of the Imperial Court!

He had somehow passed through the sword net and circled around to Gongsun Xiangming's back.

"Your physical body is indeed very strong."

His voice, like the spitting of a venomous snake, rang in Gongsun Xiangming's ears.

"But—it's too slow."

As soon as he finished speaking, he struck out with his palm.

That palm strike was light and effortless, but Gongsun Xiangming's expression instantly became extremely solemn.

He didn't have time to turn around, so he could only desperately activate his Purple Extreme Golden Body, concentrating all his defensive power on his back!

"Bang!!!"

A muffled thud!

Gongsun Xiangming's body trembled violently, and he was sent flying backward.

Zhuge Dancheng's expression changed. He swung his sword to break free of the chains binding him and was about to rush over to provide support.

But those two Imperial Court Immortal Kings clearly wouldn't let him have his way.

The sword net suddenly contracted! The Immortal-Binding Chains coiled around it frantically!

Upon seeing this, Xuanyuan Feiyue frantically spun the Bagua diagram and slashed at the two Imperial Court Immortal Kings.

However, a layer of dark golden protective light appeared on both of them at the same time, and when Xuan Yuan Fei Yue's attack landed on it, it only stirred up a few ripples.

Three against three.

After being blasted out of hiding by Gu Changyuan's attack, the three Imperial Court Immortal Kings have now fully regained their fighting spirit.

The situation is beginning to tilt.

All of this happened too fast.

The two sides clashed, and the situation reversed—all within five breaths.

In the plaza below, countless guests were still in shock from what had just happened, and hadn't even had time to react.

They looked up at the six figures in the sky, at the terrifying attacks that collided and tore through the void time and time again. They were all dumbfounded and forgot to breathe.

Gu Changyuan watched the whole thing.

He did not make a move.

His gaze fell on the three people from the Imperial Court, carefully examining their every movement, every technique, and every piece of equipment.

Whether it's the strangeness of the secret techniques, the quality of the weapons, or the strength of the equipment, they are slightly superior to Zhuge Dancheng and his two companions.

It's clear that the imperial court has sent down the elite of the elite this time.

However, despite all their calculations, they never anticipated that he would be such a variable.

More importantly, these three people were rare "practice subjects" for him.

His three disciples, Ye Qingxue, Lin Jingyu, and Yue Lingxi, have never actually fought against a Celestial King-level expert.

Now that three powerful and experienced opponents have come knocking on our door, it is the perfect opportunity to accumulate combat experience and hone our fighting strength.

"Qingxue, Jingyu, Lingxi".

Gu Changyuan spoke, his tone as casual as if he were giving a small instruction:

"Keep them alive."

A light instantly shone in the eyes of the three people.

The master had no intention of intervening; he clearly wanted them to personally go into battle to gain experience and accumulate combat skills.

Without the slightest hesitation—

Three figures suddenly rushed out.

Just as the three of them were about to set off, Gu Changyuan slightly raised his hands and then gently clapped them together.

"Snapped!"

A crisp sound.

The next moment—

An invisible force, centered on him, instantly spread throughout the entire sky.

Wherever that power passed, space seemed to freeze, layer upon layer, eventually forming a huge spatial cage that enveloped the entire battlefield, completely sealing it off.

With a sweep of his divine sense, Gu Changyuan confirmed that after the interdimensional teleportation array disappeared, there were no more energy fluctuations. Clearly, the Imperial Court had not noticed anything unusual here.

For the Imperial Court, the highest level of cultivators in the Nine Heavens Realm was only the peak of the Half-Immortal stage. Sending three Immortal Kings down to the mortal realm was more than enough to wipe out the five families.

Therefore, they didn't pay much attention to the situation in the lower realm.

All eyes were focused on the Upper Realm, on the immortals and celestial emperors who were resisting the Imperial Court.

They never imagined that the five families of the Upper Realm had considered this point.

Even though the five families were defeated and forced to withdraw from the core domain, while constantly on guard against the pursuit of the imperial court's powerful figures, they also consumed a lot of resources and sent down three Immortal Kings to protect the roots of the Nine Heavens Realm.

No one expected that Gu Changyuan would appear as such an unexpected variable in the entire plan.

Gu Changyuan slowly raised his hand, palm facing upwards. The three people from the Imperial Court in the distance were all on his palm, like ants that he could control at will.

"I hope your value is higher than I imagined, people of the Royal Court."
