120: Even the Empress can't compare to such talent! Overthinking can be deadly!

Boom!!!

A terrifying golden light suddenly erupted, like a great sun traversing the sky, filling the air with radiance and illuminating the entire mountain peak!

A Bodhi phantom stood in the sky, striking out a hand towards the blood-colored mountain peaks!

"Bodhi Descends, Undying Golden Body!"

Ten thousand golden rays, truly like the universal illumination of Buddhist light, collided head-on with the attacks of the three Saints!

Boom, boom, boom!!!

In an instant, Dao Patterns boiled, and under the fierce collision, they were utterly shattered!

Mountains collapsed, earth cracked, and rivers ceased to flow!

All in that single moment!

The blood-colored long river was shattered, and the lightning dissipated silently!

The Azure Heaven Ox Demon True Body crashed into the golden light, its single horn flashing with demonic light, as if trying to break through the golden light erupted by the Great Buddha Undying Body!

Invisible forces transformed into a violent storm, sweeping in all directions!

Rumble—

The intense tremor not only caused the mountain where Shen Tianxing was located to collapse but also deeply affected Pei Wang City on the opposite bank of the river.

"A battle between Carefree Realm Masters is truly extraordinary. Dao Pattern collisions cause mountains to collapse and the earth to crack. I hope Pei Wang City doesn't get shaken apart!"

"Shen Tianxing's cultivation has actually surpassed the Fifth Level of the Carefree Realm? Can he contend against the three Saints? Is this guy even human? How long has it been, and he's improved again!!!"

"I don't think it's that simple. Shen Tianxing's strength seems to be no weaker than the three Saints! He's really going to fight one against three!"

At this moment, all the Cultivators who came to watch the excitement felt incredibly frantic!

What they witnessed today was even more shocking than what they had heard!

A few days ago, many of them had personally seen that Shen Tianxing's cultivation was at the Fifth Level of the Carefree Realm. In just these few short days, he had grown stronger!

There were only two possibilities!

Either Shen Tianxing had previously concealed his cultivation!

Or he had just broken through!

If it was the latter, was it possible to continuously Breakthrough in just a few days?

The Human Race had never heard of a Genius with such Aptitude!

Not even the current Empress of Great Qi could do it!

It was simply too preposterous!!!

Under the violent tremors, cracks extended from the ground, and the walls of Pei Wang City groaned.

This ancient city, which had resisted countless foreign enemies, was actually unable to withstand the aftershocks of four Xiaoyao Realm Masters!

"Activate the Formation!!!"

Just then, Prince Pei's voice echoed throughout the city.

On the city walls, profound runes appeared, and in a huge plaza within the city, countless star-like lights illuminated, and majestic Spiritual Qi erupted from within, forming a massive pillar of light!

Boom!!!

Within Pei Wang City, lights flared, and a purple light shield, connected as one, formed a giant protective halo!

As soon as Pei Wang City's Formation was activated, all the tremors vanished at that moment!

In the sky, Shen Tianxing's figure emerged, his golden light rapidly retracting to his body's surface, forming a golden halo.

"Finally willing to come out? What a pity, even if you save Pei Wang City, you cannot escape the crime of betrayal!"

"Just wait!"

Shen Tianxing knew that Prince Pei had made his move, and his gaze once again turned to the three Saints.

With no more worries, he could completely let loose and have a good fight with them!

Buzz!

Saber light rose again, and an Azure Dragon floated in the sky!

Azure Dragon Saber Art!

Roar!!!

A Dragon's roar resounded through the sky, a Dragon soaring through heaven and earth, Saber Intent awe-inspiring!

Slash!!!

Shen Tianxing didn't give the opponents a chance to react. An invisible Saber Intent slashed out, the Saber light like the moon, cutting through the sky!

Zhao Wuyue, Mu Zhong, and Niu Yuan, who had been thrown dozens of miles away by the Bodhi Golden Body, had just awoken from their previous shock!

"He's actually so strong!!!"

"At the Ninth Level of the Carefree Realm, fighting one against three, he can still block our attacks?"

"Again!!!"

Facing the Saber light that bloomed like moonlight, Zhao Wuyue used his Divine Soul to conjure a sky full of blood rivers and attacked again!

"Ox Demon Gazing at the Moon!!!"

The Azure Heaven Ox Demon True Body charged through the sky, its single horn surging with demonic light. Invisible Dao Patterns emerged from its horn, forming a sharp ox horn phantom, like a gigantic awl, striking towards Shen Tianxing's Saber light!

"Yin Soul Purgatory, Ghost Devour!!!"

Within the isolated city, countless black ghost shadows appeared. Each ghost shadow seemed to be forged from a living soul, filled with resentful and malevolent Qi!

Black lightning condensed and struck down, tearing apart mountaintops and creating numerous cracks!

Those resentful souls charged towards Shen Tianxing!

In an instant, in the sky, Dragon roars echoed, demonic sounds surged, and endless light erupted, illuminating the entire area for dozens of miles around Pei Wang City!

The fierce battle!

It sent shivers down the spines of all the Cultivators watching!

Above Prince Pei's Mansion, Prince Pei watched the battle outside the city with cold eyes. Fu Xiu and Min Wenshu accompanied him, their expressions terribly grim.

From the beginning, Prince Pei had no intention of interfering.

He was determined to use others to kill Shen Tianxing!

Especially when the three Saints of the Heavenly Fiend Sect, Nether Moon Sect, and Yin Soul Sect appeared, Prince Pei even drank and celebrated with them!

However, with Shen Tianxing's emergence, everything seemed to be not going according to their plans.

Even Prince Pei hadn't expected that the three Saints, all at the Ninth Level of the Carefree Realm, would not gain the upper hand against Shen Tianxing!!!

"Your Highness, it seems we all misjudged him. Shen Tianxing's strength has already reached the Peak of the Carefree Realm. He fooled all of us!"

Fu Xiu's expression was terrifyingly dark, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

Min Wenshu shook his head and sighed, "Perhaps from the very beginning, he was setting up a scheme, including entering the Heavenly Prison, all within his plan."

"We wanted to use the hands of demons and ghost Cultivators to kill him, but he used himself as bait, deliberately luring those Masters to his door!"

"Such cunning is terrifying!"

If at this point they still couldn't understand why Shen Tianxing remained in Pei Wang City, then they shouldn't even think about rebellion; they might as well disband on the spot!

Even Min Wenshu, a strategist known for his schemes, felt that the plan Shen Tianxing had laid out was too brilliant!

Using himself as bait?

How much courage did that require to do?

This was not the Imperial City, after all, but the border of the Great Qi Imperial Dynasty. Masters from various demon and ghost Cultivator sects could appear at any time. Wasn't he afraid of attracting Divine Profound Realm Masters?

This was what Min Wenshu found most incomprehensible!

Prince Pei took a deep breath, and a thumb ring in his hand was crushed into powder.

"What a Shen Tianxing, even this Prince was deceived by him!"

"The strength of a Peak Carefree Realm Master, truly deeply hidden. But it won't be so easy for you to find evidence of this Prince's crimes!"

"Hmph!"

Even if Prince Pei harbored immense hatred in his heart, he would not choose to act at this moment.

As long as Shen Tianxing didn't personally see him conspire with demons and ghost Cultivators, it wouldn't count for anything!

Would a dignified Prince need to collude with external enemies?

Even if he didn't act, he could easily find an excuse to get away; there was nothing to worry about!

However, after choosing to protect himself, Prince Pei's grand plan of rebellion would be delayed for an unknown period.

Unwilling?

Certainly, but... there was still a chance!
