Chapter 607: Chapter 605: Controlling Ancient Fiendish Energy with the Cauldron

Although it was chaotic, under the command of Shi Feng, Can Sutian, and Zuo Shenzong, the formation changed rapidly.

Everyone present was at least a peak True Lord; even faced with life and death, they managed to remain calm!

Panic was instantly shattered!

The weaker ones were surrounded in the center by the strong, unhesitant as they took out their yet-unrefined Immortal Qi and Immortal Essence, ready at any moment to hand them to the outer defenders for use.

The elders and other powerhouses of the three major factions, all of high and perfect stage Divine Firmament level, now given Refining Immortal Qi, had advanced even further in strength, forming a ring and preparing grimly!

The elders and patriarchs of the Battle King Family; the elders and grand elders of the Dongyang Profound Sect; Daqian’s Zhao Hon and other formidable figures.

Shi Feng, Zuo Shenzong, and Can Sutian—the three great powerhouses took a side each.

Gu Jun and Xueming stood on the periphery.

Xu Yang stood behind the two of them.

"Kid, this is big trouble now."

"If this goes on, we might not hold; do you have any way?"

Gu Jun sent a voice transmission.

He knew Xu Yang too well.

Plus, with the Immortal Dao legacy Xu Yang obtained, the only sliver of hope in his heart rested with him.

As for Can Sutian and the other two, though their power was formidable now, they might not have as many means as Xu Yang.

Xu Yang’s lips twitched, and he forced a bitter smile: "Teacher, you overestimate me."

"Let’s hold on first, let me think."

Gu Jun drew a deep breath and nodded slightly.

Xu Yang’s expression shifted as his thoughts raced incessantly.

How to respond?

With his own strength, it was far from enough!

Such momentum—even with so many people working together, they might not be able to withstand it, let alone him.

He was not a true Immortal!

"These Immortal Artifact fragments can’t be used—someone tampered with them, yet they cannot be broken!"

"Even if we break them, it’s too late now. With the storm incoming, it’s pointless!"

"Damn Gou Mu!"

Xu Yang cursed inwardly.

Out of nowhere, a living fragment of ancient Immortal will surfaces!

It threw everything into chaos and erased all their advantages!

Boom!

The storm approached, and the Immortal afterimages attacked.

"Move!"

"Kill!"

"You must hold the line—don’t break formation!"

A powerhouse shouted loudly.

Rumble!

Clang!

Bang!

Immortal light shot in all directions, violent waves surged like a massive tide, sweeping in all directions; the wind churned, ruins shattered—chaos everywhere!

Divine Weapons clashed, explosive sounds deafened the ears!

Incredible spiritual lines and blasts rampaged toward the sky!

In just a moment,

The ring-like defensive formation was torn open, and shrill screams pierced the air.

The defense on one side collapsed completely.

Over a dozen were torn apart by the storm and Immortal afterimages, blood mist erupted, body and soul alike obliterated!

"Seal it up!"

Zuo Shenzong howled hoarsely.

The breach was exactly at Dongyang Profound Sect’s line.

"Go help!" Shi Feng shouted.

The Battle King Family had the most people—they had to go.

If the line was utterly shattered, no one would survive!

Xu Yang was not idle either.

The savage blade swept wide, Heaven Locking Will bound the void.

But terrifying power forced him back in an instant.

With the fused Immortal Artifact fragments, those afterimages’ strength surged alarmingly.

The storm swept in—Xu Yang’s face changed, and he retreated with a burst of speed.

"Careful!"

Xueming called out lowly, wings stirring wildly, raising fierce gales to block the oncoming storm.

Xu Yang seized the chance to fall back into the ranks, face grim.

In just a few moments, nearly fifty of the three hundred had already fallen!

If it continued, there would only be more losses!

Because the formation kept being forced tighter!

The surrounding storm only grew fiercer!

The Immortal afterimages, ever more numerous!

Can Sutian suddenly sighed. "Let’s run!"

"Abandon the majority, and a few might escape!"

"Else, all will be lost!"

Shi Feng’s and Zuo Shenzong’s faces twitched, struggling ceaselessly.

These were the true foundation of the Battle King Family and Dongyang Profound Sect.

To abandon most of them—it was unbearable!

Their hatred and killing intent for Yun Zheng and Gou Mu reached the extreme.

Shi Feng suddenly looked to Xu Yang.

"Xu Yang!"

Just a single shout.

Xu Yang immediately understood Shi Feng’s meaning.

They couldn’t hold any longer!

He knew exactly what the outcome would be if they broke!

Meeting the eyes of the three paramount powerhouses, Xu Yang saw the choice in them.

"Damn it!"

Xu Yang’s face changed again and again.

Suddenly, terrifying Evil Qi surged up beside him.

Xueming already unleashed his true form, resisting frantically, yet even so, he kept being blown back.

Can’t hold out!

"Evil Qi!"

Xu Yang’s pupils shrank, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.

Perhaps he could try this!

"Hold on!"

"Let me tear open a path!"

Xu Yang suddenly roared and charged directly toward Can Sutian.

Can Sutian was the strongest here.

The three were all stunned at his words.

"Could he really have a way?"

Even Can Sutian dared not doubt him now.

Shi Feng and Zuo Shenzong were overjoyed.

"Quick!"

The three attacked together.

Boom!

Lightning danced wildly, giant rocks smashed down, sunlight like a mighty tide.

The three unleashed their Divine Techniques, holding nothing back!

Ahead, several Immortal afterimages were blasted apart; even the terrifying storm was savagely broken open, revealing a huge gap.

Xu Yang rushed up, summoning the Celestial Refining Divine Tripod with a thought!

"Go!"

With a flick of his finger, the Divine Tripod shot out and plunged directly into the heart of the storm.

"Divine Tripod?"

The three were all stunned.

They knew this tripod of Xu Yang’s all too well.

Truly extraordinary, mysterious and inscrutable!

But in such a terrifying storm, what could it do?

Even as they wondered, Xu Yang sat down cross-legged, unleashing his willpower.

"Come out!"

He shook the world within the tripod fiercely—ancient Evil Qi surged out like a mountain crashing down, erupting forth.

Before, he would use the ancient Evil Qi to temper his will, to deal with others, using his own body to bear it—it required powerful physique to withstand.

But now, the Divine Tripod was out-of-body!

The body no longer needed to bear the shock.

However, his will had to endure!

He shook the heavens with his will—unable to detach, the ancient Evil Qi erupted wildly, pressing and assaulting his will with unprecedented force.

Yet at this moment, Xu Yang had no other choice!

His eyes turned fierce: "A perfect chance to temper my will!"

Rumble!!

The Divine Tripod boomed and vibrated ceaselessly!

Vast ancient Evil Qi spewed forth, carrying unparalleled force; the instant it flooded into the storm, it directly twisted and shattered the storm’s power.

Some Immortal afterimages charged over, blocking the first wave, but at the second, and by the third, they were broken apart!

Witnessing this, the three were overwhelmed with joy.

Xu Yang too showed his delight.

"Hiss—isn’t that Xu Yang’s Divine Tripod? It tore the storm and destroyed the Immortal afterimages!"

"Could that be an Immortal legacy treasure?"

Everyone glanced over in shock!

"Quick, everyone gather here!"

Shi Feng shouted.

All quickly converged, ignoring everything else, swarming to Xu Yang’s side.

The storm swept forth—some Immortal afterimages even avoided the Divine Tripod to attack.

But all were firmly blocked!

Xu Yang’s face was pale, muffled groans escaping him.

To block the storm and the afterimages took immense ancient Evil Qi.

At this moment, he was at his limits, barely able to hold firm!

"Xu Yang, can we help?" Shi Feng asked.

Xu Yang gritted his teeth, shaking his head with difficulty!

"That Evil Qi comes from the Divine Tripod; he is its master—only he can command it!"

Can Sutian murmured, "Such ancient Evil Qi, at the level of the Immortal Dao—his will must bear immense pressure!"

"This way won’t work! He can’t hold out for long!"
