Chapter 1950: The Situation Takes a One-Eighty Turn

At first, the Celestial Court cultivators were still exuberant, but when they saw the demonic saber in Qi Yang’s hands, they freaked out and beat a hasty retreat.

Bang!

Xiang Chunan punched and smashed a Death Legate.

“Stop throwing your weight around!”

A cold light flashed in Qi Yang’s eyes as he aimed one of his fingers at Xiang Chunan.

Several hundred thousand precepts, along with the Precepts of Heaven and Earth from within an 8,000-mile radius, gathered on his fingertip.

“Watch out, Brother Xiang!”

Feng Yan warned, as he was the nearest person to Xiang Chuhan.

While he called out, he cast out, at the highest possible speed, an Eighth Radiance Thousand-Inscription Sacred Artifact, trying to block Qi Yang’s finger attack.

Boom!

The Eighth Radiance Thousand-Inscription Sacred Artifact exploded at once, turning into scraped metal. It failed to affect the finger light a bit.

Xiang Chunan’s reaction was quick. He quickly cast out the Metal Demonic Crown and gathered Supreme Power to block in front of him.

But it was useless. The finger light deflected the Metal Demonic Crown before hitting Xiang Chunan on his body.

Xiang Chunan roared. Black divine marks appeared and intertwined on his body to block the finger light.

The divine marks blocked most of the finger light but he was still sent flying out backward, burping up blood as he was badly wounded.

Had it not been for the Metal Demonic Crown and divine marks, he would have probably died.

“I can’t believe that you are still alive. You have got some skill.” Qi Yang let out a faint smile as he raised his hand to perform another strike for good measure.

At that moment, ripples suddenly formed in the dimension, then out of nowhere, Zhang Ruochen appeared and kept Xiang Chunan behind him.

Zhang Ruochen looked grave, enraged because Qi Yang almost killed Xiang Chunan in front of his eyes. Qi Yang had crossed the line.

“Dimensional Warp!”

“Dimensional Rift!”

Zhang Ruochen immediately performed his dimensional skills as soon as he saw Qi Yang striking with his finger move again.

After the breach of the war fortress, the dimensional lockdown at Xianji Mountain had been removed, and he regained control of the dimension.

Interfered and deflected by Dimensional Warp, the finger light was then devoured by Dimensional Rift.

There was a surprised look in Qi yang’s eyes. “Dimensional skills! Like that Yuanmo said, you are the Scion of Time and Space! I can’t believe that Xumi the old monk could still train a successor after he was dead for so long. Not half bad at all!”

“Let us join hands, Zhang Ruochen. You hold off Qi Yang with your dimensional skills while I attack him,” said Bi Yunhai through telepathy.

Obviously, he could see how amazing Zhang Ruochen’s dimensional skills were and could cause problems to Qi Yang while giving him the opportunity to attack.

Qi Yang turned his head around and looked at Bi Yunhai.

A strange glow appeared in Qi Yang’s eyes, which sent out a horrible energy wave.

“Not good!”

The three Tu Brothers standing nearest to Bi Yunhai sensed the danger, their faces changed.

With no hesitation, they cast out a Ninth Radiance Thousand-Inscription Sacred Artifact-class shield in front of them and summoned the full strength of the shield.

Likewise, Bi Yunhai quickly yanked out the sky-blue gourd when he sensed the danger.

As an invisible energy hit the shield, it melted away like ice under the scorching sun.

The three Tu Brothers screamed in pain as their bodies melted just like the shield did. They summoned their saint Qi to resist it, but it was useless.

If things kept going like this, they would be done for.

Meanwhile, Bi Yunhai’s situation was better as he was blocking the attack with a regal weapon. But he was still forced to retreat, as the attack was too much to bear.

At last, a through and through bloody wound appeared in his chest. He nearly fell headfirst to the ground.

“Impossible!”

He clenched his fists tightly as he could not believe what was happening.

He could totally understand it if Qi Yang were using a Supreme Saint to beat him. But Qi Yang had no movement; with eyes alone, he had already wounded him badly. He could not believe that the gap between them was so huge.

The Celestial Court cultivators were quaking in their boots at seeing the death of the three Tu Brothers and the wounding of Bi Yunhai. How powerful Qi Yang was, really?

They did not think the three Tu Brothers were weak. Instead, each of the three brothers was powerful enough to beat any Heaven’s Reach fighter, and rivaled a Path’s Anterior fighter when joining hands. Yet they could not withstand a glance from Qi Yang.

Let alone Bi Yunhai, who had beaten a Neverwither Supreme Saint before. He did not stand a chance against Qi Yang.

What kind of out-of-this-world saint technique Qi Yang had used?

This showed that the record in The Maleficent Records of the Infernal Court’s Ten Clans were not accurate. Before this, no one knew Qi Yang possessed a Supreme Artifact, and no one knew he had such a pair of terrifying eyes.

Zhang Ruochen was the only person who remained calm. He took out a Dimensional Chaos Scroll, unfolded it, and hurled it at Qi Yang.

Tens of thousands of dimensional inscriptions rushed out from the scroll and became one with the Precepts of Heaven and Earth.

The dimensional structure around Qi Yang started to change. Even the earth’s crust was shifting. The space within several-hundred-mile radius became a chaotic dimension in the blink of an eye.

This was a Dimensional Chaos Scroll that Zhang Ruochen made long ago. During the closed-door self-cultivation practice earlier, he remade it and burned more dimensional inscriptions onto it.

When he first made the Dimensional Chaos Scroll, his level of cultivation was still comparatively low, and his attainment of Path of Dimension was not high enough. So the first-version Dimensional Chaos Scroll had limited power. It was good enough to trap non-Precept Domain cultivators but obviously not Heaven’s Reach, or even Path’s Anterior fighters.

Qi Yang along with the strange energy wave of his eyes were trapped as soon as a chaotic dimension formed.

In this way, the three Tu Brothers could still live.

Qi Yang looked surprised when he sensed a strange energy wave came from behind him.

He immediately struck out his hand to block the strange energy wave while he stopped using the secret technique of the eyes.

“The attack changes course? Is it another dimensional skill?” Qi Yang carefully studied his surroundings without looking in a panic.

He had full confidence in himself. No matter how mysterious and elusive Zhang Ruochen’s dimensional skills were, it would cause him some troubles but definitely no harm.

“Bring the three Tu Brothers away,” said Zhang Ruochen.

A warship flew over at once and a few Celestial Court cultivators carried the three Tu Brothers onboard.

The three Tu Brothers might have escaped death, but they were badly wounded, part of their bodies had melted. Recovering was challenging, especially when they had lost their combat strength and were no good for the battlefield.

Bi Yunhai had also retreated, took a sacred herb, making the best of time to heal his injury.

Zhang Ruochen took out a bottle of Spring of Life from the Qiankun Realm and poured the content down Xiang Chunan’s neck.

He could see that even with the divine marks protecting him, Xiang Chunan was in a terrible shape. The blow had inflicted trauma to his internal organs. If not treated in time, the trauma could leave a chronic effect in his body.

Boom!

Qi Yang was launching an all-out attack.

The attack might have been blocked, but the chaotic dimension was shaking. There was a sign of it breaking down.

The reason was, Qi Yang’s powerful attack had overloaded the chaotic dimension.

In a matter of moments, a fine crack formed in the Dimensional Chaos Scroll.

“Your dimensional skill is not bad, Zhang Ruochen. But you couldn’t be more wrong if you think you can trap me with it.” Qi Yang roared with laughter while attacking, looking unusually at ease.

But no matter how sophisticated a skill is, it will not hold a candle to absolute power.

Just then, a glow appeared on Ji Fanxin’s forehead as an extremely ancient tortoiseshell shot out.

The tortoiseshell was at the size of the palm of a hand, silverish and covered in strange patterns, formed naturally with no signs showing that they were handcrafted.

“The tortoiseshell is a portrait of arrays, and should be good enough to keep Qi Yang in for a while,” said Ji Fanxin.

Zhang Ruochen got the hint and immediately opened up the chaotic dimension and threw the tortoiseshell into it.

The tortoiseshell glowed as strange patterns appeared and formed an esoteric array to engulf Qi Yang in it.

With the combination of a chaotic dimension and a portrait of array, Qi Yang could no longer escape, no matter how powerful he was—at least for now.

Bang!

Qi Yang struck the tortoiseshell array drawing.

But no matter how hard he tried; the tough tortoiseshell array drawing would not budge.

He hissed as he used the demonic saber to strike the tortoiseshell array drawing.

More strange patterns appeared on the tortoiseshell array drawing as the Precept of Heaven and Earth were gathered and formed into a protective shield to withstand the demonic saber’s attack.

Zhang Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the tortoiseshell array drawing was fine. “Taking this opportunity, we should kill our way in!”

He immediately engulfed Ji Fanxin, Feng Yan, Xiang Chunan, Pei Yutian, and the evil spirit with his saint Qi.

As he performed a Dimensional Shift, the six of them disappeared into thin air.

Bi Yunhai’s eyes flashed. He stopped his healing process and faded into a stream of light as he hurled toward the heart of Xianji Mountain.

He wanted to get a piece of the action if there was any opportunity arising in Xianji Mountain.

“Not good!”

Seeing that Qi Yang was trapped, Bi Yunhai was moving toward the center of Xianji Mountain, and Zhang Ruochen and his mates were nowhere to be seen, Yuanmo Shenzi’s face looked grave.

Anxious, he tried to shake off Xuanyuan Liekong. He wanted to go after Zhang Ruochen and others.

“You won’t go anywhere, Yuanmo! You’re here to stay with me!” Xuanyuan Liekong did everything he could to hold him off.

He needed to buy Zhang Ruochen and others some time.

Meanwhile, other Deathkin shenzis and Ladies were also tied up in battles, feeling desperate.

Chixing Shenzi’s situation was not looking good either, as Zheng Yuan had pinned him down, almost breaking one of his wings.

Apparently, he had underestimated Zheng Yuan’s ability. Had he known this earlier, he would have let Shengku Shenzi deal with Zheng Yuan. He should not have looked for this trouble.

The same situation happened to Ming Gu, who was ambitious to beat Lu Baiming to become the top non-Supreme Saint array master. But things did not turn out as he had expected. Lu Baiming had got the upper hand, and it was a matter of time before he lost the battle.

The situation had taken a one-eighty turn and swung in favor of the Celestial Court.
