Chapter 4488: Breaking the Stalemate

d seemingly a dead end.To leave the valley, one must climb over the mountains.Turning around, Jiang Yun looked at the remaining Zhan Chou and others who still hesitated to pass through. "My Lords," he...For a considerable amount of time, both sides have been locked in combat within the arena. However, as each party harbors their own intentions, their actions are restrained, neither side willing to unleash their full potential. Instead, they engage in a tactical stalemate, prolonging the conflict.

Looking at half a day passing, the renowned Wanhuan Tianzun of the heavens finally spoke again: "Everyone, if we continue to stalemate like this, it might be disadvantageous for us."

After all, the five Spirit Lords have already returned to the Spirit Ancient Domain. If she really went to ask the Spirit Clan for reinforcements for Jiang Yun, she should be back soon.

Once she returns, even a single Spirit Master from the Spirit Race would be enough to overwhelm us. So, let's not wait any longer!

"Indeed, our main concern right now is whether Jiang Yun still has any trump cards up his sleeve."

But come to think of it, even with his strongest cards, there must be limitations. And he shouldn't be an insurmountable enemy for our combined forces.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had any need to hide until now. So I agree, let's officially launch the attack!

With the two great celestial lords speaking one after another, besides Hongchen and Xuwu who remained silent, all the other great celestial lords nodded in agreement.

And the eyes of all once again turned to the equally silent Angel of Patrol!

The angel of patrol said faintly, "I came here only to deal with Ginger Cloud."

Apparently, for Wan Huan and others' idea of taking the opportunity to exterminate people like Feng Ming, the Heavenly Watcher still adhered to his original principle: he would neither intervene nor interfere.

In other words, he will not make a move as long as Ginger Cloud doesn't appear.

In this way, of the top ten powers, only seven actually took action.

However, that's enough!

The Slaughter Heaven Venerable cast a sinister glance at Xu Wu and Hong Chen, saying: "The two of you seem like you won't be participating in the battle for now. Then I hope you enjoy the show here."

Seeing that Void and Red Dust were still silent, Slaughter Celestial Venerable ignored them both and turned his gaze to Destiny Celestial Venerable. "Destiny," he said, "you were once the strongest among us. I've always wanted to spar with you, but never had the opportunity."

"Looking at you now, you must have regained your strength. In that case, I won't be polite."

The Heaven-Exalted Title "Fen Ming Tian Zun" is, besides the celestial being "Xun Tian Zhi," the only one among numerous great Heavenly Lords to have entered the realm of Sovereign.

And the Slaughter Sovereign is considered to be the strongest of all the current Heavenly Sovereigns.

Moreover, the Slaughter Heavenly Venerable was indeed bloodthirsty by nature, so he had long wanted to challenge the Fate-Sealing Heavenly Venerable.

As soon as his words fell, the Slaughter Heaven Venerable had already lifted his foot and stepped out, directly stepping into the gap in the Heavenly Formation!

Upon his arrival, the Heavenly Venerable of Formation clenched his teeth, and the formation reacted immediately. Countless illusory demonic beasts materialized once more, swarming towards the Slaughter Sovereign.

Although these monsters are illusory, the weakest among them are also at the Yuan Fa realm, and there are even several who are at the Heavenly Venerable level. There are simply too many to count.

If someone else faced this, they would inevitably have some trouble.

But the Slaughter Heaven Venerable was nowhere to be seen. On his emaciated body, a surge of black gas suddenly erupted, encircling him.

These gases, they are his killing aura, containing all the killings he has committed throughout his life.

The presence of killing intent made even low-level demon beasts afraid to approach.

While powerful demonic beasts, upon reaching his side, would be instantly slain by the aura of carnage, posing no threat to him whatsoever.

The Slaughter Heaven Venerable, surrounded by countless demonic beasts, seemed to have entered a land devoid of people. He took step after step towards the Destiny Heaven Venerable.

Just ten steps later, he was already standing before the Sealed Heavenly Sovereign.

"Good!" The Heavenly Venerable, Fengming, laughed loudly, "I've long heard of Brother Slaughter's formidable killing arts. Today is a good opportunity to witness them firsthand."

As he spoke, the Heavenly Venerable of Orders swiftly drew two seals in the air with his hands. He slammed them down onto the black behemoth ship and the blood-colored long blade.

Before that, the Heaven-Sealing Venerable had been constantly suppressing these two artifacts originating from the two Great Heavenly Venerables with seals.

And at this moment, as his two seals flew out, the two artifacts were immediately fixed in mid-air, motionless.

Even the countless vengeful spirits within the longswords themselves had fallen into stillness.

It's not hard to see that the Sovereign of Heavenly Mandate didn't use his true strength at all. It was only until he faced the Slaughter God Sovereign that he decided to fight seriously.

The expression of the Slaughter Heavenly Venerable didn't change in the slightest, as if it wasn't surprising at all that the Sealed Fate Heavenly Venerable had been hiding his true strength before.

With a slight smile, he raised his hand, and a scarlet river flew out of his hand, directly towards the Slaughter Heavenly Venerable.

Although this was the first time Slaughter Immortal clashed with Envoking Heaven Venerable, he was well aware of Envoking Heaven Venerable's reputation for sealing anything. Therefore, he kept his distance from Envoking Heaven Venerable.

"Even Heaven's Venerable, with a smile on his face, said: 'Killing God, my seal is not as simple as you imagine!'"

Amidst the clamor, even Feng Ming Tianzun raised his fist and punched towards the blood-colored river surging towards him.

His fist held an endless amount of sealed runes, too. When he struck the river of blood, countless runes fell into it like pebbles.

A river of blood, instantly ceased to flow, as if frozen solid.

"As expected, nothing escapes my grasp, but I too kill everything!"

The Slaughter Heaven Venerable let out a hearty laugh, the killing aura surrounding him spread like wildfire, surging towards the Fate-Sealing Heaven Venerable.

However, at this moment, the Heavenly Venerable of Sealing Decrees spoke repeatedly: "Seal, seal, seal!"

With every utterance of the character "seal," a void would appear between worlds, where a seal materialized, perfectly blocking a surge of murderous energy.

In the blink of an eye, all the murderous aura was abruptly sealed in the air!

Next, the Slaughter Sovereign's smile froze gradually because he saw that the Mandate Sovereign was no longer paying attention to him. Instead, he took a step forward and appeared beside the Vanishing Sky Sovereign who had just stepped into the Array Gap.

The Heavenly Venerable has issued a decree, boldly facing two enemies alone!

Not only that, the Heavenly Venerable of Sealing issued a roar: "Formation lacking!"

At this moment, besides the two Heavenly Venerables, Wanhuan and Sha Lu, the other five Heavenly Venerables also stepped into the broken formation of Tian.

And originally, the three of Gu Yin, Gu Yang, and Zhen Que were each suppressing the magical treasures and artifacts of these great celestial venerables.

But when he heard the voice of the Feng Ming Tian Zun, Zhen Que Tian Zun also roared. The power of the formation appeared crazily and with his own strength, he stopped all the magic weapons of Shen Lian and others, leaving Gu Yin, Gu Yang, Jiang Li and Jiang Qiu Ge all temporarily empty-handed.

Yun and Ji, the two patriarchs, smiled coldly and met each other's gazes.

But Gu Yin was able to, with his own strength, draw the head of the Ji Clan into his battle circle. He faced two opponents alone, forcing Gu Yang to confront Lei Yin Tianzun.

Ginger and Jiang Qiugé, meanwhile, each took their subordinates—all the Heavenly Venerables—and respectively held back Yaoling and Shenlian, the two Great Heavenly Venerables!

Evidently, for this great battle, they had also devised different plans.

Especially the Heavenly Venerable of Conferring Orders guessed that Xu Wu and Hong Chen wouldn't make a move.

But he hadn't expected the Angel of Patrol, known for its awe-inspiring presence, to choose to stand aside.

In doing so, they managed to hold back the combined attacks of Shenlian and others.

However, they also know that this blockade is only temporary!

Today, they are all in overloads of combat.

Whether it's the ancient cunning of fighting two against one, or relying on superior numbers to temporarily hold back the demonic spirits and Shen Lian's Ginger Autumn Song, or even using formations to simultaneously prevent the gaps in the five celestial venerables' artifacts, none of these strategies can last for too long!

Therefore, they could only hope that Ginger Cloud would appear sooner.

As for this, the Divine Refiners naturally saw it as well, so the seven of them were not in a hurry at all, and they didn't even let their subordinates step into the gap in the formation.

They originally wanted to quickly resolve the situation, but since they knew about the domain war and that with their seven members, they could handle the entire Void Sky, it was natural to preserve their own strength for the potential domain war that could arrive at any time!

Under the passage of time, a sudden scream pierced the air.

Beside the departing figure, a Heavenly Venerable was hammered into a paste by the Divine Forging Heavenly Venerable's hammer!

The death of this celestial being finally completely broke the stalemate of the battle.iu Peng's command, all the cultivators from the Blood Dao Realm who had been preparing for this moment immediately responded.Led by six Daoist cultivators, Gu Luo and his team, they charged towards Da...
