901: Chapter 902 Take Action!

Boom!

A golden storm of Qi swept out in all directions with him at the center.

The ground cracked, boulders shattered, and the air seemed to solidify.

The Disciples who were fighting over the Spirit Spring Liquid were forced back by this sudden burst of pressure.

Some had their legs go weak and fell to their knees, while others vomited blood, their faces filled with terror.

"Xuanwu Heaven-Suppressing Seal — — Suppress!"

Zhao Qian shouted, his hands forming a seal, and a colossal phantom of a mountain descended from the sky.

It was no longer just a phantom; it had almost solidified, as if a ten-thousand-foot divine mountain had truly fallen from the Nine Heavens.

Carrying a terrifying momentum that crushed everything in its path, it slammed down toward the four of them.

"Block it!"

Tianjian Peak Personal Disciple Bai Wuchen roared, holding his ancient sword horizontally before him. He condensed his Sword Intent to the limit and thrust his sword toward the mountain phantom.

Ziyang Peak Personal Disciple Yanlie struck out with both palms, flames soaring into the sky and transforming into a giant fire beast that collided with the mountain.

Biluo Peak Personal Disciple Chu Dao slashed out with his blade, a blade Aura spanning a hundred feet cutting toward the base of the mountain.

Su Wanyue flicked her fingers rapidly, and several defensive Formations lit up before her, layering over one another to protect her.

Boom!

A deafening explosion resounded throughout the world.

Violent shockwaves swept out in all directions. Wherever they passed, the ground was stripped of three feet of soil, and rocks on the cliff walls crumbled and fell.

Tianjian Peak Personal Disciple Bai Wuchen bore the brunt of the impact. His ancient sword let out a mournful cry, and the spiritual light on the blade dimmed instantly.

He was sent flying backward like a kite with a broken string, slamming heavily into the cliff wall behind him.

He smashed a human-shaped crater several feet deep into the rock and spat out a mouthful of blood.

The situation for Ziyang Peak Personal Disciple Yanlie and Biluo Peak Personal Disciple Chu Dao was no better.

The two of them had joined forces to withstand most of the pressure from the mountain phantom, but the terrifying force still sent them flying.

Ziyang Peak Personal Disciple Yanlie tumbled a dozen times in the air before barely stabilizing his figure. When he landed, his legs went weak, and he fell to one knee, a trickle of blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.

Biluo Peak Personal Disciple Chu Dao was smashed directly into the ground, creating a large crater. He was covered in dust, and his breathing was chaotic.

The Nine-Layer Ten-Thousand Spirit Defensive Formation shattered layer by layer. With each layer that broke, Su Wanyue's blood Qi churned.

When the final Formation rune completely vanished, she let out a muffled groan and retreated dozens of steps.

With a single strike, all four top Prodigies were sent flying!

Only then did Tianjian Peak Personal Disciple Bai Wuchen struggle to lift his head from the cliff wall. He looked at Zhao Qian with a horrified expression, hoarsely spitting out a few words:

"Nine Heavens... Peak?!"

Zhao Qian stood in the air, his monstrous blood Qi shooting straight into the clouds, his long hair dancing wildly without a breeze.

His eyes were as black as ink, and every inch of air around him was compressed by the power of the earth.

Looking down at the four of them, he curled his lips into a ferocious smile, his voice resounding like thunder across the entire valley:

"Now, who else wants to stop me?"

Tianjian Peak Personal Disciple Bai Wuchen, Ziyang Peak Personal Disciple Yanlie, Biluo Peak Personal Disciple Chu Dao, and Su Wanyue all wore extremely grave expressions.

Staring intently at Zhao Qian, whose Aura was monstrous under the influence of the medicinal power, they were all filled with deep apprehension and dared not step forward easily.

He curled his lips into a smile. Although he had paid a significant price, it was all worth it.

As long as he obtained this All-Encompassing Origin, he could advance to the Peak of the Heaven-Reaching stage in the shortest possible time and charge toward that legendary position.

"I said it, this Spirit Spring is destined to be mine!"

His voice was hoarse but carried an unquestionable dominance.

Ziyang Peak Personal Disciple Yanlie and Biluo Peak Personal Disciple Chu Dao were half-kneeling on the ground, their breathing yet to calm, and they could only watch helplessly.

Su Wanyue stood dozens of feet away. Her fingertips had just lifted, but she put them back down; at this moment, Zhao Qian was invincible.

Thousands of Disciples on the periphery held their breath; everyone knew that the outcome was decided.

Zhao Qian's fingertips were only three inches away from the All-Encompassing Origin.

Two inches. One inch.

Just then—

"Dong Li!"

A low shout suddenly rang out from behind a giant rock in the distance.

Zhao Qian's pupils constricted violently, and a strong sense of crisis rose from the bottom of his heart.

He instinctively wanted to withdraw his hand to defend, but it was already too late.

An extremely sharp mental shock, like an invisible steel needle, instantly pierced into his Sea of Consciousness!

"Ugh—!"

Zhao Qian's brain felt as if it had been heavily struck by a hammer. Everything went black before his eyes, and his consciousness suffered a brief gap.

Although it was less than a breath of time, for a top Cultivator, this single breath was fatal enough.

Immediately after, Talismans fell from the sky like a blizzard. Golden light, lightning, and fire exploded simultaneously, submerging the entire valley in a blinding spiritual light.

Everyone's vision and Divine Thought were temporarily blocked. Even Tianjian Peak Personal Disciple Bai Wuchen and the others had to squint and raise their hands to shield themselves from the blinding light.

"Who?!" "Someone is ambushing!" "Protect the core!"

In the chaos, the Xuanwu Peak Disciples shouted sternly, but the roar of the Talisman explosions covered everything, and they could not lock onto the enemy's position at all.

Zhao Qian endured the stabbing pain in his Sea of Consciousness and roared, striking out with his palm toward the direction where the Talismans were most dense.

But that palm strike hit nothing; the opponent had not stayed in that position at all.

When he finally dispersed the interference of the Talismans and opened his eyes again, he saw a scene that made his eyes split with rage.

A figure in white had appeared by the Spirit Spring at some unknown point.

Fang Hanyu.

His speed was too fast—so fast that along the trajectory of his dash, only a faint afterimage was left in the air.

In the instant that Dong Li's mental shock had distracted Zhao Qian, and in the instant that Wang Xiaopang's Talismans had obscured everyone's vision.

He had already crossed a distance of several hundred feet and arrived at the edge of the Spirit Spring.

His hand was gripping that All-Encompassing Origin.

Then, he pulled with force.

Hum—!

The All-Encompassing Origin left the spring eye, emitting a dazzling, multicolored light that illuminated the entire valley.

In that moment, everyone saw it.

That ten-thousand-year fortune that everyone dreamed of was now held in the hand of a youth in white.

The entire scene fell into dead silence.

Zhao Qian was stunned.

Tianjian Peak Personal Disciple Bai Wuchen was stunned.

Ziyang Peak Personal Disciple Yanlie, Biluo Peak Personal Disciple Chu Dao, and Su Wanyue were all stunned.

The valley with over a thousand people fell into a deathly silence.

No one had expected that at the very last moment, after five top Prodigies had battled for so long and Zhao Qian had gone to the lengths of using his trump card to suppress the entire field.

The one who ultimately snatched the All-Encompassing Origin was actually a youth in white who had never been noticed from the very beginning.

Zhao Qian's expression shifted from shock to livid, and from livid to ferocious.

"You... are... courting... death!!!"

He let out a heaven-shaking roar, his spiritual power erupting completely.

The pressure of the Heaven-Reaching Ninth Layer crushed down like a physical substance, and the entire valley trembled in his rage.

Fang Hanyu did not stop for a second. He tucked the core into his robes, turned around, and dashed toward the outside of the valley.

"Stay behind!!!"

Zhao Qian let out a heaven-shaking roar and struck out with his palm across the air at Fang Hanyu's back.

This palm strike was delivered in fury. Its power was so great that even the air was compressed into white waves of Qi, and the ground was plowed into a deep gully by the palm wind.

However, two figures simultaneously blocked the space between him and Fang Hanyu.

Xiao Ruobai's golden blood Qi soared into the sky, his Battle Intent condensing into a physical form before him, transforming into a golden barrier.

His eyes glowed with a faint golden light, the muscles all over his body bulged, and his veins protruded. Clearly, he had driven the power of his War God Body to the limit.

Mo Yu let out a low roar, and a colossal Qilin phantom suddenly appeared behind him.

The phantom was crimson gold all over, its scales distinct, and a primitive, ancient Aura instantly spread out, scorching the surrounding air until it twisted and deformed.

The Qilin phantom raised its head and roared, blocking the path the palm print was destined to take.

Boom!

The palm print slammed into the golden barrier and the Qilin phantom, erupting with a deafening crash.

The golden barrier trembled violently, cracking with countless fine fissures.

The luster of the Qilin phantom also dimmed slightly, and it let out a low whimper.

Xiao Ruobai and Mo Yu both spat out a mouthful of blood, their bodies sent flying backward by the impact.

But they did not fall. Borrowing the force of that terrifying rebound, their speed became even faster.

Like two meteors, they caught up to Fang Hanyu, who was ahead.

"Go!"

Xiao Ruobai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and gave the order. The five of them did not linger in the battle at all and rushed toward the depths of the dense forest at full speed.

Only when their figures disappeared into the sea of trees did the crowd in the valley finally recover from their shock.

Zhao Qian stood where he was, looking at his empty palm, and then looked at the Spirit Spring pool that had lost its luster.

The expression on his face shifted from shock to ferocity, and from ferocity to madness.

"Chase them!!!"

His roar resounded throughout the entire valley, filled with endless killing intent and humiliation.

"At all costs, capture them and bring them back to me!!!"
