Chapter 4816: Strength Exposed

"Immortal Array Master! Form the array with your body!"

Wang Ruyan frowned. If it were just Jiao, it would be manageable, but with Teng Sen as well, it was becoming even more difficult. To break the array, they either had to destroy it by brute force or eliminate Teng Sen.

Teng Sen made a hand seal, and giant green vines, reaching skyward, burst from the ground. They quickly wove themselves into enormous azure hands that struck at Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan.

Wang Ruyan, holding an azure jade flute, began to play. As a cheerful flute melody resounded, waves of azure sound swept out to meet the attacking azure hands. The azure sound waves passed through the giant azure hands, which then shattered like bubbles, turning into countless wood splinters and filling the air with dust.

A whooshing sound filled the air as colossal yellow fists shot towards them. Wang Changsheng showed no fear. With a movement of his fists, ear-piercing whooshing sounds echoed through the void, and colossal azure fist-shadows flashed out to meet the attack. The azure fist-shadows collided with the yellow fists, neutralizing each other and erupting in a loud bang. A powerful shockwave rapidly spread out, shredding large amounts of vegetation.

A blur flashed, and Jiao appeared before Wang Changsheng, swinging a massive yellow axe down at him. Wang Changsheng showed no fear, raising his Ice Soul Spear to meet the blow. The Ice Soul Spear clashed with the yellow axe, producing a dull thud of metal on metal, and sparks flew. Wang Changsheng slammed his left fist into the void, and a colossal azure fist flashed out, heading directly for Jiao. Jiao quickly opened its mouth and blasted out a wave of yellow sound, blocking the azure fist.

"Two supreme origin laws! Impossible!" Jiao exclaimed in shock. It now understood how Peng and Xiao had been killed. It was no wonder, considering Wang Changsheng had actually cultivated two supreme origin laws. In terms of raw origin law power, Wang Changsheng was not inferior to Jiao. If he had only possessed one supreme origin law, he wouldn't have been able to contend with it at all.

"Plenty of impossible things happen!" Wang Changsheng sneered, remembering how Jiao had previously ambushed and injured them. He summoned eighteen Sea Suppressing Beads, made a hand seal, and the beads rapidly expanded in size, plummeting towards Jiao. Jiao showed no fear, swinging its yellow axe to meet them. The yellow axe clashed with the Sea Suppressing Beads, producing a dull thud and sending sparks flying. Jiao felt an irresistible immense force strike it, sending its body back several steps uncontrollably.

A vast amount of blue seawater surged from the ground, churning and overflowing, submerging an area fifty billion li in radius, with towering waves.

"Today, I'll kill you all, saving myself the trouble of you becoming a future menace," Jiao's tone was icy.

"To kill us? I'm afraid you don't have the strength for that," Wang Changsheng sneered. The seawater churned and surged, forming a massive blue water curtain, attempting to trap Jiao within it.

Just as Jiao was about to evade, a powerful spatial origin force emerged. It quickly reacted, its body erupting with dazzling ten-colored immortal light, activating its spatial origin law to neutralize the effect. Seizing this opportunity, a colossal blue water curtain enveloped both it and Wang Changsheng. The sound of crashing waves filled the air, and a colossal blue water dragon lunged at Jiao.

Meanwhile, Wang Ruyan activated her origin laws to attack Teng Sen. Teng Sen discovered that Wang Ruyan had cultivated two supreme origin laws and dared not confront her directly, instead activating the array to defend himself. Azure vines burst from the ground, striking at Wang Ruyan like long whips.

Inside the blue water curtain, blue water dragons lunged at Jiao. Jiao swung its yellow axe, shattering the water dragons. Then, a colossal Sea Suppressing Bead appeared and smashed towards Jiao.

"A set of mid-grade Dao artifacts with artifact spirits!" Jiao said, frowning. An ordinary set of mid-grade Dao artifacts would have been damaged by now. It was clear to Jiao that Wang Changsheng's set of Dao artifacts was extraordinary. Wang Changsheng did not reply, instead swinging his Ice Soul Spear to attack Jiao. For a time, explosions rang out continuously.

Wang Changsheng couldn't kill Jiao, and Jiao also found it difficult to kill Wang Changsheng. Overall, Jiao held the upper hand, but its advantage was not significant, and Wang Changsheng could still resist.

After a short while, accompanied by a loud bang, Wang Changsheng was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of vital blood, his face slightly pale. Jiao transformed into a blur, instantly appearing before Wang Changsheng and swinging its yellow axe down at him. The yellow axe split Wang Changsheng in half, but his body dissolved into specks of blue light and vanished.

The seawater churned and surged, and a massive blue water dragon flew out from it, lunging at Jiao. Jiao frowned, letting out a loud roar. A yellow sound wave swept out, passing through the blue water dragon's body, which then exploded into countless drops of blue seawater.

The blue water curtain also dissipated. Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan transformed into two streaks of light and fled through the air. Teng Sen was nowhere to be seen, having been killed by Wang Ruyan. The ground was a mess, with large amounts of vegetation scattered everywhere.

"Damn it, where do you think you're going?" Jiao cursed, transforming into a streak of light and giving chase. It hadn't chased far when this area collapsed, forming a separate spatial pocket that trapped it. Not long after, accompanied by a deafening roar, Jiao broke free, but Wang Changsheng and Wang Ruyan were nowhere to be found.

In a hidden underground cave, the mother tower of the Ten Directions Mother-Child Pagoda floated in mid-air. Yan Xiao stood nearby. In the lower left corner was an azure shelf holding over a dozen Dao artifacts, including one high-grade Dao artifact, and a golden storage bracelet.

Yan Xiao picked up the golden storage bracelet. With a flick of his wrist, a golden glow swept past, and a large pile of fifth-order immortal materials appeared on the ground, mostly refining materials.

"So many fifth-order immortal materials, haha! Excellent," Teng Xiao's voice came from the mother tower, which erupted in dazzling black light. The fifth-order refining materials and over a dozen Dao artifacts flew towards the mother tower, all swallowed by it.

Yan Xiao put away the other items on the ground and said, "It's a pity there's only one high-grade Dao artifact. It would be great if there were more."

"There must be more than one high-grade Dao artifact here. Let's explore other areas; there must be more good things," Teng Xiao said.

Yan Xiao nodded, and along with the mother tower, departed from the place.

A sprawling manor lay in ruins, with many buildings destroyed. At a three-story golden pavilion, Wang Qingbai and Wang Qingfeng stood before the closed door of a secret chamber. They opened the door to reveal a stone chamber over a hundred zhang wide. Inside, an azure shelf held over a dozen Dao artifacts.

"A high-grade Dao artifact!" Wang Qingbai's gaze fell upon a small mirror shimmering with black light, and his face lit up with joy.

"I'll refine this treasure first, then we'll leave this place," Wang Qingfeng suggested.

Wang Qingbai nodded in agreement and stood guard for Wang Qingfeng.

Wang Qingfeng sat down cross-legged and picked up the small black mirror. On its reverse side were three small characters: "Ten Directions Mirror." He tossed the Ten Directions Mirror into mid-air and began to refine it.
