Above all spirits

Chapter 234 Go, Master Ball!

The primordial energy condensed after the Wuji Yi Jie (a state of ultimate emptiness) formed a tornado of superimposed force, which annihilated countless black feathers with overwhelming force.

By sheer accident, the black arc of light hidden beneath countless black feathers was broken.

"Crack!"

Space shattered, and the Blade of the Void instantly vanished.

Gu Yun narrowed his eyes and memorized the blade's shadow.

At the same time, golden light flashed brightly on one side, and a tower-like spiritual treasure expanded infinitely, pressing down fiercely on Gu Yun.

This must be one of the old man's unknown magical treasures.

On the other side, there was still Hua Qinxuan surrounded by countless petals, but this time she had a sword with her. She charged straight at Gu Yun with overwhelming momentum, probably preparing some new tricks.

Dual-wielding, huh?

Show me a Starburst Stream Slash.

Gu Yun seemed to have thought of something and couldn't help but chuckle, completely disregarding the two of them.

In his eyes, only the methods used by Yang Tianxiao, the holder of Emperor's Will, could be described as threatening. Having Emperor's Will and not having Emperor's Will are two different levels of powerhouses. The blade imbued with Emperor's Will did not seem to be from the lower realm. Just now, he was only grazed by the blade's energy, and a bloody mark appeared on his face.

However, these two people cannot be ignored.

With a thought, a magical treasure resembling a Kongming lock appeared in Gu Yun's hand.

It was the Spirit Sealing Lock, the top-grade spiritual treasure that had trapped Werner at that time.

A slight smile played on Gu Yun's lips as he infused the object with a trace of innate energy before throwing it forcefully towards Hua Qinxuan.

Werner: Go for it, Master Ball, it's all up to you!

Gu Yun: ?

Hua Qinxuan: ?

Hua Qinxuan frowned upon seeing this. Although she was wary, she did not know the actual effect of the object, so she did not immediately turn around and run away. Instead, she swung her sword to meet the attack without hesitation. If she only knew how to escape when faced with something unknown, she would never be able to reach the pseudo-innate level or condense the imperial will.

The resolute and calm gleaming in his eyes suggested that he was fully prepared for any sudden threat.

Little did she know that the Spirit-Sealing Lock that was gradually enlarging and disintegrating in her eyes would be the last scene she would see on this battlefield.

Gu Yun turned around without looking back to face the rapidly spinning golden tower.

He unleashed a Dragon Tide strike in an instant.

In an instant, the tornado rose into the air once again!

However, this time, unlike before, the tornado's color turned into a pure and dazzling gold.

Gu Yun did not simply continue to use the innate power that had been resolved by the Wuji Yi Jie, but instead chose to use the power of the stars stored in the Bai Po Sword.

He needs to incapacitate these two men in a short time.

For innate power that cannot undergo the second or even third stage of the Wuji Unification, the power of stars is ultimately more domineering and convenient.

The moment the golden tower touched the golden tornado, the tower and the space around it suddenly cracked apart, like a shattered mirror, with countless cracks spreading out.

In the distance, Ming Wansheng, who was controlling the golden tower, suddenly changed his expression. He finally realized that the course of the battle was starting to go wrong, and they had greatly underestimated this man who had only been a Heavenly Demon for three days.

The octagonal golden scale tower, a top-grade spiritual treasure known for its invincibility and resilience, which he possessed, couldn't even withstand a single blow in this battle. It was made from the scales of a golden dragon.

Wait a minute? This familiar feeling... the power of stars?!

As the cracks spread across the Octagonal Golden Scale Pagoda, Ming Wansheng's face grew increasingly pale. He desperately tried to control his magical treasure to stabilize the collision with the golden tornado, because if the giant pagoda were to shatter, he himself would inevitably suffer the most direct impact.

However, the tornado formed by the powerful stellar energy was becoming increasingly terrifying as its force accumulated, and he began to lose control of the Octagonal Golden Scale Tower.

"Empty, empty, empty—!"

The tower shook violently, the cracks deepened, and the tower and the surrounding space began to collapse on a large scale.

A flicker of fear flashed in Ming Wansheng's eyes. He gritted his teeth and stared at Gu Yun's nonchalant demeanor, a strong sense of unease rising in his heart.

"Impossible...how can he be so strong!"

He knew that this was not a simple contest of strength, but a complete suppression of power.

Gu Yun, who possesses the Heavenly Demon Emperor's Will, can not only amplify his innate Qi far beyond that of ordinary people, but he can also control the power of stars. How can the three of them possibly withstand this?

At least one more holder of the Emperor's Will would be needed to have a chance.

"Qiang!"

Immediately afterwards, a deafening metallic clang resounded throughout the surroundings, the lingering force causing the entire space to tremble.

Gu Yun nimbly caught the short blade that appeared out of thin air. He and Werner had been keeping a close eye on this strange blade. The moment it appeared, Gu Yun swung his sword and struck hard. The blade that pierced the air was instantly deflected by the sword energy, but a black light still wrapped with powerful innate energy stabbed fiercely toward Gu Yun's shoulder.

Gu Yun's expression changed slightly, as if he had gained some understanding of Yang Tianxiao's imperial will. One was that it was impossible to perceive, and the other was that any form of attack would elevate its power to the peak of the Innate Strike.

It's a disguised form of the Heavenly Demon Emperor's Will—Boundless, but Yang Tianxiao's Emperor's Will ability is undoubtedly more convenient and flexible in actual combat than Boundless.

Gu Yun quickly moved to the side. Even with his reaction speed and agility, he couldn't react to such an unpredictable attack. However, Gu Yun was still a master of combat. Although he didn't know many skills, he had memorized every single one.

A thought came to my mind.

The silver liquid instantly flowed backward from the back of Gu Yun's hand and formed an armor on his shoulder. The black light struck the shoulder armor, which was transformed from the Divine Iron of Creation, heavily, sparking countless sparks. The huge shockwave caused Gu Yun to retreat several meters.

It was this retreat that allowed Yang Tianxiao to take the time to extend a helping hand to Ming Wansheng and resolve his crisis.

But he was powerless to help Hua Qinxuan.

pick one of two.

One is a visible threat, which is somewhat troublesome, but not something he can't handle.

One is a mysterious, lock-shaped magical artifact whose nature is unclear; the risk is too great, and I might end up getting myself killed.

The lesser of two evils.

I can only apologize to Hua Qinxuan.

Yang Tianxiao gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Yun, who was still in his prime. He must have benefited from the Heavenly Demon Emperor's Will of 'Boundless'. A resolute thought flashed through his mind, and he sighed to Ming Wansheng.

"Let's go. Let's sever ties with the demons for now. It's not something we can talk about openly anyway. I think you can sense that the Heavenly Demon in front of us is extraordinary. He can even directly use the power of stars. Unless we can join forces with your ancestor and Hua Qiandao, who is traveling with the Hundred Flowers Sect, my intuition tells me that even two emperors cannot defeat him head-on. Only the three of us working together might have a chance."

"I don't care anymore, if this keeps going, I might not even be able to leave."
