"So, East, we don't need to worry about, we can leave it to the Divine Phoenix lady. The most important are the West, South, and North. Old Huang, how about we join forces to block Curse Ancestor's retreat from the West?"

"I have no objections, to me, any direction is the same."

Huang Yuan took out the Divine Weapon, the Silver Mace, with heroic spirit. The silver radiance flowed over the surface of the mace, and intense Divine Power burst forth with Killing Intent from the mace's body.

Senior Zun's gaze swept over Wei Lingxiao, Xu Jianan, and Lv Liangping, lingering a bit longer on Wei Lingxiao, "Old Wei, do you still have Lei Gong's Thunderous Attack and the Soul Intimidating Lightning Crown you borrowed from Headquarters?"

"Still got them." Wei Lingxiao gave Senior Zun a meaningful look, his heart secretly surprised at how Senior Zun knew he had Lei Gong's Thunderous Attack and the Soul Intimidating Lightning Crown.

But he quickly realized that since Senior Zun was stationed at the Great Tang Ruins, perhaps he heard about it from those supporting the Human Emperor Daoist Temple from the ruins.

Senior Zun said with delight, "With Lei Gong's Thunderous Attack and the Soul Intimidating Lightning Crown, you are stronger than us. How about you intercept Curse Ancestor alone from the South?"

"I have no objections." Wei Lingxiao nodded, agreeing.

"Old Xu, Old Lv."

Senior Zun looked towards Xu Jianan and Lv Liangping, "I ask you two to block Curse Ancestor from the North and prevent him from fleeing that way."

"No problem, Old Xu and I will stop Curse Ancestor even if it costs us our lives."

Lv Liangping responded with a smile.

"Old Lv, that's not right, how can you start talking defeatist talk before entering the battlefield. You should say, with the two of us blocking the North, Curse Ancestor can forget about escaping from there." Xu Jianan retorted Lv Liangping with a half-joking tone, laughing heartily.

"Kid Xiao, I do have a suggestion for you regarding the siege on Curse Ancestor."

In Xiao Mu's ears, suddenly came the voice of Divine Monarch Wu De.

"Senior, please speak." Xiao Mu's heart stirred, and he responded to Divine Monarch Wu De using voice transmission.

Divine Monarch Wu De said, "Curse Ancestor is proficient in the art of Riding Clouds and Mist, yet none of your requested allies can do it, which puts you at a disadvantage."

"Fighting from the ground against someone in the sky, the power you can exert is at least reduced by more than half."

"Don't you have the Destiny Talisman? Now is the time to use it."

"Senior is asking me to use the Destiny Talisman? Can the Destiny Talisman be used under these circumstances?" Xiao Mu asked, surprised.

The Destiny Talisman, originating from Emperor Taija and created by the Human Emperor manipulating the authority of Fate, is a Fu Zhuan given to Xiao Mu by the Alliance Headquarters for him to save his life.

Xiao Mu had never thought that aside from saving his life at critical moments, the Destiny Talisman had other uses.

Divine Monarch Wu De said seriously, "Don't underestimate Emperor Taija's authority over Fate. The Destiny Talisman can do a lot more than just save your life at critical moments. By borrowing the Destiny Talisman, you can control the Power of Destiny, and even temporarily strip Curse Ancestor of his Riding Clouds and Mist technique."

"Of course, the power of the Destiny Talisman you hold isn't particularly strong, and its duration will be limited. It can only make Curse Ancestor lose the ability to Ride Clouds and Mist for a short time. So, once you use the Destiny Talisman, you must act quickly to strive to kill Curse Ancestor before the Power of Destiny fades."

"So that's another way to use it."

The words of Divine Monarch Wu De filled Xiao Mu with silent joy; with this, his confidence in killing Curse Ancestor increased.

"Don't get too excited just yet."

Divine Monarch Wu De immediately added, "What I just mentioned is the power of the Destiny Talisman, but actually, using the Destiny Talisman will have repercussions."

"Repercussions?" Xiao Mu was startled, a twinge of unease percolating within him.

Divine Monarch Wu De said, "Yes, repercussions. Once the Destiny Talisman is used, traces of Fate will remain inside the user."

"This trace of Fate's residue could potentially draw Emperor Taija's attention to you. You should know the consequences if Emperor Taija notices you, right?"

"So, whether to use the Destiny Talisman or not, you'd better think it over carefully."

Xiao Mu fell into deep contemplation.

Using the Destiny Talisman has its pros and cons, the pro is that after stripping the Curse Ancestor of his Riding Clouds and Mist technique, Senior Zun and the others could more easily surround and kill the Curse Ancestor.

The con, however, is that once the Destiny Talisman is used, one would earn themselves more trouble, causing Emperor Taija to take notice.

But after careful thought, Xiao Mu felt that the Destiny Talisman should still be used.

The Human world was currently in a sealed state, Emperor Taija couldn't enter for the time being, so what if he took notice? At most, he would dispatch a master to kill me.

And Emperor Taija was already doing that.

This meant that whether or not I used the Destiny Talisman, the fact that Emperor Taija was sending masters to kill me wouldn't be affected.

Using the Destiny Talisman, however, would make it much easier to kill the Curse Ancestor.

Thinking this, Xiao Mu immediately looked over at Senior Zun and the others, "Seniors, I have an idea."

Upon hearing this, Senior Zun and the others turned their heads to look at Xiao Mu.

Senior Zun asked in surprise, "Xiao Mu, what are you thinking? Let's hear it."

Xiao Mu said, "Senior Zun, seniors, I have a way to pull the Curse Ancestor down from the clouds, preventing him from Riding Clouds and Mist for a short while."

The crowd couldn't help but show a surprised look on their faces upon hearing this, as preventing the Curse Ancestor from Riding Clouds and Mist for a while was not something an ordinary person could do.

After exchanging glances, Senior Zun finally said, "If the Curse Ancestor can't Ride Clouds and Mist, our chances of successfully surrounding and killing him would increase significantly. Xiao Mu, what method are you talking about?"

"A few days ago, the Alliance Headquarters rewarded me with a Destiny Talisman. With this talisman, I can temporarily strip the Curse Ancestor of his Riding Clouds and Mist technique." Xiao Mu said this while taking out the Destiny Talisman from the Earth Seal Space for Senior Zun and the others to see.

"The Destiny Talisman!" Senior Zun exclaimed, his eyes showing a hint of astonishment.

"It really is the Destiny Talisman, the Alliance has even rewarded you with that." Huang Yuan also expressed surprise, looking at the Destiny Talisman in Xiao Mu's hand with an envious and jealous air.

"Headquarters actually rewarded you with a Destiny Talisman, they really value you!" Wei Lingxiao stared at Xiao Mu in disbelief.

"Since that's the case, what are we waiting for? Use the Destiny Talisman to pull the Curse Ancestor down." Xu Jianan laughed heartily, seeming to be impatient already.

Lv Liangping nodded with a smile, "Excellent, with this, we are even more confident in killing the Curse Ancestor."

Xiao Mu's gaze swept over everyone with a solemn expression, "Seniors, the Destiny Talisman's power is limited and won't last long. Once I pull the Curse Ancestor down from the clouds, I hope the seniors will immediately seize the opportunity and use your strongest means to join forces and kill the Curse Ancestor."

"You don't need to say that, we would do it anyway," Huang Yuan said.

Senior Zun nodded reassuringly, "Don't worry, even if you didn't say anything, we would still use our strongest means to attack the Curse Ancestor."

Wei Lingxiao, Lv Liangping, and Xu Jianan all nodded as well, indicating that they would not miss the opportunity to kill the Curse Ancestor.

Xiao Mu was still a bit uneasy, "Seniors, please allow me to ask again, among the five seniors, does anyone possess the ability to instantly burst battle strength?"

With that, Xiao Mu's eyes slowly swept across Senior Zun and the others, very serious.

The reason for asking this question was that Xiao Mu thought of the Blood Essence Technique practiced by Qi Xie.

With the powerful burst of the Blood Essence Technique, Qi Xie, relying on his aging body, managed to hold off the Curse Ancestor, a half True God, until the arrival of the Divine Phoenix lady.

After all, the Curse Ancestor was a half True God, possessing half of the curse authority, his strength was incredibly formidable. Even if the Destiny Talisman could temporarily strip the Curse Ancestor of his Riding Clouds and Mist technique, Xiao Mu still worried that Senior Zun and the others would not be able to kill the Curse Ancestor before the power of the Destiny Talisman faded, eventually allowing him to escape once his Riding Clouds and Mist technique was restored.

If there was someone who practiced a burst strength similar to the Blood Essence Technique, willing to burn life force for an outburst, then the difficulty in killing the Curse Ancestor would be greatly reduced.

Hearing Xiao Mu's question, Senior Zun and the others began to look at each other.

After a moment, Huang Yuan was the first to speak, "As for the ability to burst battle strength instantly, I've practiced one called the Soul Demon Curse, which can burn one's own Divine Sense to instantly release more than five times of one's own battle strength. However, once the Soul Demon Curse is used, it would severely injure my Divine Soul and be very difficult to recover from."

"Xiao kid, you're not hoping I would fight the Curse Ancestor by burning my Divine Soul, are you?"

As he asked this question, a slight displeasure appeared on Huang Yuan's face.
