"Hold off Daqian's Divine Communication, the Zhenwu Sect Leader is fiercely battling Pei Dongliu. Do everything possible to delay Daqian's reinforcements and await the outcome of the battle."

Elder Shiming's orders were conveyed to every member of Nine Heavens through the Nine Heavens Jade Pendant, reigniting disputes instantly.

Those who do not plan for eternity are not worth a moment's scheme. Those who do not plan for the whole are not worth a single corner.

If you have the intention of warning Daqian, then naturally you must also have a contingency plan to block Daqian's subsequent reinforcements. Thus, the border between Hou Qian and Daqian is tense, tensions run high, and several Divine Communication experts have already clashed.

Just a day ago, on the auspicious day of an attack on the Heavenly Gate Pass, Daqian directly pressured with a large army, forcing most of the Nine Heavens' forces to confront them.

Now the tables have turned, and it's Nine Heavens forcing Daqian instead.

However, to determine the ultimate victory or defeat, one must look at the outcome between Qing Yu and Pei Dongliu.

If Pei Dongliu triumphs, Daqian will once again establish its prestige in the Central Plains, and can seize the opportunity to begin subjugating the Jianghu forces.

If Qing Yu wins, then the Daqian, having already lost half its territory, will reveal its decline despite having a stronger foundational power than before, with two Supreme experts and over ten Divinity Realm experts, but those mad with ambition care little for such things.

The flames of war still rage within the Hou Qian realm, and there may also be those in Daqian quietly harboring ill intentions.

At worst, some may even wish to pledge allegiance to the rising Hou Qian, earning themselves the achievements of the dragon.

But in reality, both sides are more inclined to see Pei Dongliu prevail. Although "The World's Number One" is mostly a title of irony, Pei Dongliu has intimidated the world for decades, whereas Qing Yu has only just recently achieved Divine Communication, with few impressive battle records.

For those in Nine Heavens who are unaware of Qing Yu's identity, their actions are merely adding to Daqian's troubles. For those who know, though aware that Qing Yu never fights a battle he's not confident in, they still have no certainty about the strength of this reclusive white-haired Taoist.

On Daqian's side, they, of course, are brimming with confidence, as Pei Dongliu carried an extremely strong trump card to ensure no mistakes.

························

"Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations·Wandering Dragon Spear."

Qing Yu's passionate retention received no favorable response, as Pei Dongliu, worried for Ning Wuming's safety, launched an astonishing strike immediately.

Like a wandering dragon soaring through the sky, the dragon's shadow hovers and the spear's light is sharp, as if it could pierce the firmament, advancing unhesitatingly.

"Brahma Qi Miro Melt All Things."

The Brahma Qi that encompasses all things rises, dissolving the layers of the Wandering Dragon, but the core spear light remains relentless, piercing through the track wheel Qi Shield, meeting the Zhenwu Sword edge.

"Clang—"

The collision of spear light and sword edge, Qi Weapon formed by True Qi and the solid Divine Sword clash, producing a sound as if shattering gold and cracking stones, the focused edges clashing emit a harsh noise.

"I, Pei, am no imprudent person, have also heard of the Zhenwu Sect Leader's Protective Divine Skill, where all Qi is absorbed, but the sharpness of my battle intent contained within, you cannot dissolve!"

Pei Dongliu pointed with radiant golden light, clashing with the Zhenwu Sword, his steady eyes revealed a will as solid as a rock.

"If it can't be dissolved, then simply obliterate it!"

The Sword Qi evolves into Yin Yang, opens Four Symbols and Eight Trigrams, the Zhenwu Heaven-opening Sword.

Endless Dao power manifests, a seeming black hole within the Zhenwu Sword, absorbs the Heaven and Earth Qi, transforming all things.

"Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations·Great Wilderness Spear."

The concentrated golden light carries an unstoppable force, the golden Great Spear swings down, the force to overturn mountains and seas concentrated in one spear.

The Heaven-opening Sword and Great Wilderness Spear collide, terrifying momentum shakes the heavens, rendering the sky clear, sweeping away Cloud Qi within ten miles.

"Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations·Transcend Space Sword."

A sword transcends space, the sword edge seemingly ignores space, piercing the void to leave a sword mark on Qing Yu's cheek.

The wound on the face quickly heals, disappearing entirely within a few breaths, yet the lingering pain proves Pei Dongliu has taken the first round, injuring Qing Yu.

Qing Yu parries with the True Sword, dispersing Pei Dongliu, feeling that trace of pain he says somewhat unexpectedly, "'The World's Number One' surprises me, not only with a physique able to withstand Divine Weapons like the Zhenwu Sword but also these sword moves that disregard Protective True Qi. It seems I underestimated you."

The former Qing Yu had anticipated, as Body Refinement primarily relies on resource accumulation, and Daqian, dominating the Central Plains for three hundred years, has once occupied resource-rich Qing Province, providing plenty of heavenly materials and earth treasures, Divine artifacts for Pei Dongliu to exhaust.

But the latter, involving spatial changes, proves Pei Dongliu's strength has reached some apex.

"I, Pei, have mentioned, I have long studied you. All along, what's most notable about you is your rare injuries, your Protective True Qi being top-tier, if so, how could there be no countermeasure?" Pei Dongliu finally withdraws his distant attention and states calmly.

The sword momentum over there has ceased, it seems Ning Wuming's fate is bleak, Pei Dongliu even going over would be useless. Given this, it's better to fulfill the previous decision — kill Qing Yu.

His killing intent remains unwavering, mingling with battle intent stirs the winds and clouds, creating a desolate surrounding.

"Qing Yu, you were once an undercover agent for the Six Gates, but you turned traitor, creating chaos in Daqian, today you must die."

"Well then, I shall watch and wait."

The exchange of glances, one filled with passionate battle intent, the other tranquil and lofty, but both revealing an intent to kill. Today for both sides, it's a fight to the death!

Suddenly, a cross-shaped Divine Weapon appears in Qing Yu's hand, Trigram Formation spinning, Heaven and Earth Qi gathering.

Simultaneously, his figure splits, appearing two seemingly solid figures, each gathering wind and fire, evolving into a Heaven and Earth Shaking move.

Dark Ice and Fire Seven Heavens·Unrivaled Awakening.

And the twin figures are using the final form of Innate Qiankun Skill·Heaven and Earth Shock.

Wind, Break the Earth.

Fire, Burn the Wilderness.

Wind and fire converge, a fierce wind sweeping an angry flame, crimson filling the cloudy sky. Scorching Fire Power mixed with bone-scraping Gang Wind, a terrifying flame tornado like a mad dragon dances wildly, attacking and slaying.

"Heavenly Weapon Ten Transformations·Sword and Spear Unite·Dance of Spring and Autumn."

The mighty Great Wilderness Spear mixed with Blade Energy, Pei Dongliu swings the spear fiercely, Gang Qi swirling angry winds, flashing with cold metallic luster shocks all around, countering the combined attack of wind and fire.

"Boom—"

In the Heaven-shaking air waves, forceful whistles cut through, tearing and impacting everything in the vicinity. Even the slightly distant Zhenwu Seven Tribulations Formation was impacted.

Though the Qi Shield protecting the Zhenwu Seven Peaks was only slightly disturbed due to the presence of Divinity Realm warriors presiding over the great formation.

The two figures simultaneously charged at each other, shrouded in violent wind and angry flames. With only partial strength, it's still challenging to overcome "The World's Number One." Although both bodies can individually exert nearly full strength, only when united are they the truly complete Qing Yu.

Now that Ning Wuming is gone, it's time to fulfill his full potential.
