Chapter 831: Xuanhuang Battle Armor
"Wen Yuan, even if you're given a Celestial Cosmic Ring, how much longer can you hold out?"
Over Mount Shu, thunder echoed as the clouds were torn apart.
The two Celestial Cosmic Rings had divided the hidden realm into two layers. But now, the first layer was striking the second with full force. The resulting surge of spiritual energy shattered the void for hundreds of li. The cultivators that had gathered on Red Cotton Peak to watch the spectacle were forced to retreat, and only a few eighth-realm powerhouses remained in place.
Boom!
The Imperial Supervisory Commissioner invoked the Great Dao of Tai’a, blasting open a gap in the wall of the first layer of the hidden realm. Yet, as the East Sea Chrono Wheel turned, time reversed, and the wall returned to its previous state, appearing completely intact.
With the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda still missing, the Cosmic Ring and the Chrono Wheel paired up to become the strongest legendary artifact in the world. It far surpassed the second-ranked artifact in the Catalog of the Mortal World’s Ten Thousand Treasures. Without a legendary artifact, even the Eminent Ones couldn't do anything about what was happening.
There was no hope of changing the outcome unless the sects were ready to go to war with the Penglai Supreme Sect and brought their legendary artifacts here. But even with that, it could already be too late for the Mount Shu Sect.
Explosions echoed one after another as the many peaks of Mount Shu collapsed, crumbling inward from the edges. Even though Venerable Wen Yuan held a Celestial Cosmic Ring attuned to his Great Dao, it was still just one legendary artifact. Against the combined might of the Cosmic Ring and the Chrono Wheel, it stood no chance.
All Venerable Wen Yuan could do... was buy a little more time before the end.
On the battlefield, Daoist Cangyun, Daoist Cangqiu, and the Elder of Mount Lu had joined forces against the celestial beast Baize. Yet, even when facing three opponents, Baize showed no signs of faltering. This allowed Venerable Wen Yuan to concentrate fully on wielding the legendary artifact in his fierce duel with Daoist Cangsheng, who controlled the combined might of the Cosmic Ring and the Chrono Wheel.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
