33: They broke through the enemy lines and the situation reversed!

"It's those three old ghosts from Ancient Moon Tower!"

"They're truly seeking death!"

"Fine, I'll kill you three old ghosts as well today!"

"There's no need for Ancient Moon Tower to exist anymore!"

The old fellows recognized the three at a glance; they had harbored grudges for many years, and meeting on the battlefield now made them even more hostile.

Except for the eight Great Emperors guarding the Eight Desolations Fire Dragon Array, everyone else attacked the Three Old Ancestors of Ancient Moon Tower.

"Bang—"

"Swish—"

"Rumble—"

Countless techniques collided, erupting with power that could destroy heaven and earth!

A battle between those in the Great Emperor Realm was far beyond what ordinary Cultivators could compare to.

Except for the Wending Sect, which was protected by the Sect Protecting Grand Array, every other place was razed to the ground by horrific techniques!

The ground was scorched, and many mountain peaks were blasted directly into powder!

The Cultivators from various Sects who had come to participate had long since hidden a hundred thousand miles away, but even so, they were still not safe.

Some of the bolder ones used Divine Abilities to watch the battle, hoping to gain insights into profound techniques.

However, a shockwave from the battle struck them.

Instantly, another large group of people underwent Ascension on the spot!

"Run!"

"It's not safe here!"

The others were pale with fright and hurriedly used Escape Techniques to flee another several hundred thousand miles before they dared to stop and catch their breath.

Meanwhile, within the battlefield.

Under the pincer attack of six or seven Great Emperors, the Three Old Ancestors gradually became unable to hold their own, and the anxiety on their faces grew deeper.

Although they found opportunities to attack the array eyes several times in succession...

...they failed to destroy the Eight Desolations Fire Dragon Array.

The Extreme Radiance True Fire continued to burn fiercely, completely locking Li Tiangang inside the Formation; those outside could not see the situation within at all.

"How bitter!"

The Three Old Ancestors all secretly groaned.

They had intended to risk everything, but they hadn't expected this situation.

They wanted to attack the array eyes again, but they were firmly blocked by the old fellows and couldn't find any chance.

And as for wanting to escape, they couldn't.

"Three Old Ancestors!"

Baili Wendao and the others from Ancient Moon Tower cried out in alarm!

These Three Old Ancestors were the very Foundation of Ancient Moon Tower; if they died, Ancient Moon Tower would be finished.

An uncontrollable wave of panic appeared on everyone's faces.

If this continued, the Three Old Ancestors would surely die!

However, just as everyone was about to fall into despair, the situation on the battlefield suddenly shifted—

Amidst the surging flames, a massive storm suddenly swirled up!

Following that...

The storm grew larger and larger, and the surging Extreme Radiance True Fire churned violently, forming a massive fire tornado!

"All laws in the world, I—"

"Shall break them with a single sword!"

"Heaven Splitting!"

An incredibly surging sword light suddenly slashed out from within the fire tornado!

"Boom—"

The fire tornado was sliced directly in half!

The sword light's residual force surged toward the Lame Old Man!

"How is this possible?!"

The Lame Old Man's eyes almost popped out of his head.

This was an Ancient Malevolent Array set up by eight Great Emperors, the Eight Desolations Fire Dragon Array!

It was broken just like that?

Before he could think for long, the sword light was already in front of him, unstoppable!

He didn't have time to think and used the ancient profound mirror to block it.

"Buzz—"

The force of the sword light was immense, and since Li Tiangang's strength was significantly higher than his...

...the ancient profound mirror in his hand was knocked flying out of control.

Just as he wanted to retrieve it, Li Tiangang's sword had already pierced toward the space between his eyes!

The Lame Old Man was terrified!

He hurriedly retreated, but he was half a step too slow.

"Slash!"

Half an arm was sliced off by Li Tiangang's sword, and blood flowed freely!

Immediately after...

Li Tiangang grabbed the ancient profound mirror and quickly broke the Restriction inside.

The Profound Mirror completely lost its connection with the Lame Old Man and became an ownerless object.

"Not good!"

All the old fellows' faces changed drastically!

This result was unexpected by everyone; for a moment, they all stopped, not knowing how to respond.

Not only did the Eight Desolations Fire Dragon Array fail to cause any substantial damage to Li Tiangang, but the ancient profound mirror had also been taken by him.

They had completely lost their winning trump card!

"Is this the eight desolations profound fire mirror?"

"It truly is an extraordinary Magic Treasure!"

"If the Sect Master hadn't lent me this ten thousand calamities untainted robe, I probably would have really perished here today."

"However..."

"As long as the Extreme Radiance True Fire cannot harm me, breaking this Formation isn't that difficult."

"It's a pity this Formation requires eight people of the same Realm to occupy eight array eyes simultaneously to activate; otherwise, if I, the Old Ancestor, were to set up this array today, not a single one of these old things would escape!"

Li Tiangang directly imprinted his Divine Soul Mark on the eight desolations profound fire mirror and then put it away.

"Li Tiangang, return the Profound Mirror!"

Seeing this, the mouths of the Three Old Ancestors of the Heavenly Sword Sect twitched in heartache.

The Lame Old Man rushed forward, absolutely furious!

In an instant, he had already healed his injury, and his arm had regrown.

However, it consumed half of his Spiritual Power, and his remaining Lifespan would also be significantly reduced.

The loss was immense.

Yet these losses were far from being as significant as the eight desolations profound fire mirror.

"What Profound Mirror?"

"Is it yours? Stop shouting there!"

"Call out to it and see if it answers you!"

Li Tiangang was dismissive and sneered.

At this time...

The Three Old Ancestors of Ancient Moon Tower had escaped death and were overjoyed, all gathering behind Li Tiangang.

The two groups faced off across the void.

"You!!"

"Sophistry!"

"This mirror is the treasure of our Heavenly Sword Sect!"

"Today, you must return it whether you want to or not!"

The Lame Old Man was furious and swore to get the mirror back!

He held very high prestige among the old fellows.

With his command, the other old fellows also joined forces to attack Li Tiangang's group of four!

However... the Lame Old Man had just suffered a great loss of Origin Qi, and without him as a major combat force, the old fellows suddenly felt the strain.

They no longer had the advantage they had when besieging Li Tiangang earlier.

Coupled with the help of the three Great Emperor Old Ancestors from Ancient Moon Tower, the situation immediately reversed!

Furthermore, Li Tiangang was now wearing the ten thousand calamities untainted robe; he didn't even dodge many of the attacks landing on him, tanking them directly with his body!

"Ah!!!"

Not long after, Li Tiangang seized an opportunity and sliced one of the Old Ancestors of the Heavenly Sword Sect in half at the waist!

His Primordial Spirit fled in terror!

"Don't leave!"

Li Tiangang smiled and was about to pursue, but was blocked by the other old fellows working together.

Helpless, he could only give up.

"Old Ghost Luo of the Heavenly Sword Sect, actually..."

The old fellows grew more and more terrified as they fought.

The situation was spiraling downward; if they continued like this, not only would it be impossible to kill Li Tiangang, but they themselves were at risk of falling at any moment.

Thinking of this, every old fellow began to harbor thoughts of retreating.

They became somewhat flustered, and their attacks were no longer as sharp.

"Ah—"

Amidst their mutual panic, another old fellow had his head exploded by Li Tiangang's sword strike!

This Great Emperor came from Xuanji Pavilion.

However, his luck was much worse than the previous Great Emperor; his Primordial Spirit didn't have time to escape before it was caught by Li Tiangang.

"Bang—"

The Primordial Spirit exploded, and his life and Dao were extinguished!

"Fellow Daoists, he actually killed Fellow Daoist Qian!"

"Let's fight him to the death!"

A tall, thin, and ugly old fellow roared and was the first to charge forward!

Seeing this, the other old fellows suppressed the fear in their hearts and followed him to charge at Li Tiangang's group!

However... just as the old fellows were charging forward, that tall and thin old man suddenly turned around!

He tore open a Spatial Rift directly, transformed into a streak of light, and vanished!

When he reappeared, he was already ten thousand miles away!

"Huh?!"

Everyone was stunned.

Even Li Tiangang was slightly dazed: "He... ran away?"
