Chapter 716 - 716 67 Ye Ancestor
716: Chapter 67 Ye Ancestor 716: Chapter 67 Ye Ancestor As if an old monk suddenly awakened from meditation, True Master Jun Shan abruptly opened his eyes, raised his arm as if wielding a knife, and the Sword Qi mixed with lightning directly severed the head of the “Heavenly Phenomenon Drum” from its roots, lifting it high into the air.
The head, shocked and complex in expression, stared blankly upward, meeting the gaze of a solemn-faced Daoist child.
This scene was frozen amidst the pervasive paper snow, with the heavy snow swirling backward, the entire White Paper Barrier continuously contracting and condensing, eventually becoming a fleeting shadow brushed past the child’s pupils.
This scene.
It was both a Heart Lake prophecy and a predetermined fact.
Jun Shan exhaled a murky breath, and after breaking through to the Cave Heaven Realm, his entire aura became deep and restrained.
The gales and waves sweeping through his Divine Soul all dissipated.
The moment he entered meditation, he saw countless scenes, among which the one where the “Heavenly Phenomenon Drum” was beheaded was just one…
This ambush was merely a tiny ripple in his long life; the true “breathtaking storm” lay ahead.
“Escape!”
The first thing True Master Jun Shan did after breaking meditation was to slaughter the “Heavenly Phenomenon Drum.” The second thing was to swiftly move in the opposite direction of Wu Zhexian.
On the other side of the White Paper Barrier.
The brilliant, golden Holy Light was enveloped by the pure white dharma, unable to leave.
Lu Yuzhen held back Wu Zhexian, but from another perspective, it was actually Wu Zhexian holding back Lu Yuzhen.
Wu Zhexian never intended to abandon his “Brother Jun Shan” and flee alone.
On the contrary, everything he did was to help Jun Shan escape…
The reason he made up his mind was that True Master Jun Shan, when his consciousness was awakening, sent him a strand of Divine Thought!
“Rumble!”
Thunder roared across the dome, yet this time it had nothing to do with the “Heavenly Phenomenon Drum.”
True Master Jun Shan summoned the Purple Cloud Flying Sword and rose with Sword Control.
A streak of purple and azure sword light transformed into a thick thunderbolt, swiftly gliding within the White Paper Barrier.
His goal was clear: as soon as he broke free of this barrier, the news of the Three Great Sects’ rebellion could be successfully transmitted…
Initially planning to hold back Wu Zhexian and then trap him, Lu Yuzhen’s expression turned sullen.
With a cold snort, he forced himself to withstand a punch from Wu Zhexian, reached towards True Master Jun Shan with his hand, and grasped from a distance.
Countless white papers surged towards the streak of sword light.
Even if a cultivator at the peak of the Yang God Realm was held back by a same-realm opponent, unable to focus Heart Power, a casual strike was still beyond what a Yin God could resist!
However.
The purple and azure sword light, which was about to succeed and strike the barrier’s walls, suddenly twisted direction and absurdly began to meander…
This was not an “extreme reaction” powered by Divine Thought but purely an “advance anticipation.” The Daoist child maneuvered the Purple Cloud Flying Sword along the rounded border of the White Paper Barrier with an incredible arc, stirring waves of sword Qi that lifted thousands of piles of snow.
Countless white papers surged like tidal waves, yet all hit nothing!
“…Hmm?”
For the first time, surprise appeared in Lu Yuzhen’s eyes.
Wu Zhexian threw another punch.
This punch did not land on Lu Yuzhen’s chest but was aimed at the end of the Daoist child’s sword Qi trajectory.
Mighty golden light erupted like a True Dragon’s breath, causing the White Paper Barrier to shatter again, leaving a massive hole.
The Purple Cloud Flying Sword flew out of the barrier, the Martial Arts Saint Body Divine Radiance pulsed, burning away all the chasing white paper—
In that instant, standing atop the Flying Sword, True Master Jun Shan looked back.
He gazed at Wu Zhexian.
The rupture of the White Paper Barrier was an excellent opportunity to escape.
Yet Wu Zhexian showed no intent to move or escape.
Their gazes met, and True Master Jun Shan understood Wu Zhexian’s thoughts.
He did not want to leave; he wanted to stay.
The white paper roared, full of Killing Intent.
True Master Jun Shan gritted his teeth, hesitated no longer, and rode the Flying Sword, transforming into a long rainbow, speeding towards the direction of Qingfu Mountain—
…
…
“You had a chance to leave.”
This spontaneously suspended White Paper Barrier seemed fragile, yet it was constantly strengthening.
The paper snow fell more and more intensely.
The aura of this barrier grew ever stronger…
Wu Zhexian had struck twice to break the barrier, and at this moment, he clearly felt that the strength of this barrier was now several times its previous level.
This level of confrontation.
The victory or defeat lay within a hair’s breadth; Lu Yuzhen had previously paid a certain price to rescue Mo Taoist and Joyful Zen Master…
And now, Wu Zhexian had also paid a price to allow True Master Jun Shan to escape.
“Leave?”
Wu Zhexian gently laughed.
As he watched the White Paper Barrier close again, there was no regret on his face.
He knew.
In terms of cultivation realm, he was inferior to Lu Yuzhen.
In terms of the right time and place…
he was also at a disadvantage.
The most rational approach.
Would be to find an opportunity to break through the barrier and then escape.
“You’re not planning to leave?” Lu Yuzhen also laughed.
In truth, his most vexing situation would be if Wu Zhexian refused the Paperman Sect’s invitation while desperately trying to escape.
Even though he possessed vast Divine Skills.
Yet to block a Yang God Realm Martial Artist who had refined a Martial Arts Saint Body from escaping…
was nearly an impossible task.
If Wu Zhexian disregarded Jun Shan.
He would have long escaped from here.
The “reinforcement” of the White Paper Barrier required time.
His various methods also needed brewing.
“Actually, I should have come here earlier tonight.”
Wu Zhexian suddenly said.
Before leaving Qingfu Mountain, True Master Jun Shan had sent a message through the Yang God Jade Talisman.
“Oh?”
Lu Yuzhen remained smiling, unfazed.
“I heard that in the South Border you have eyes and ears everywhere…”
Wu Zhexian softly asked, “You should know what happened today, right?”
Lu Yuzhen, with his hands behind his back, casually replied, “The Paperman Technique was exposed, you plan to delay the full assault, and invite a second Yang God to join the battlefield.
I heard all this will take three days to settle.”
