136: The two great saints fled, leaving only the Destruction Immortal Venerable behind.
If it were earlier, he might still have some reservations about the Three Great Saint Venerables, but now he was at the Peak Immortal Venerable Realm and wielded two genuine immortal emperor artifacts.
He refused to believe he still couldn't defeat the Three Great Saint Venerables under these circumstances!
If all else failed, Wang Xuan was on his side. He could give Wang Xuan an immortal emperor artifact to help him hold off one Saint Venerable, allowing him to quickly eliminate the other two.
After hearing Gu Jixiao's words, the Karma Immortal Venerable's expression became extremely grim. The hot-tempered Destruction Immortal Venerable immediately couldn't hold back and jumped out.
"Fellow Daoist, I advise you not to refuse a good offer. After all, there are three of us, and we have all been at the Peak Immortal Venerable Realm for many years. We do not wish to see you meet an unworthy end over a mere woman!"
"This Fellow Daoist, may I ask who you are?"
Gu Jixiao glanced indifferently at the Destruction Immortal Venerable.
Upon hearing this, the Destruction Immortal Venerable showed a proud look before slowly speaking.
"It's simple, this Venerable is one of the Three Great Saint Venerables, the Destruction Immortal Venerable!"
"Destruction Fellow Daoist, it's best to say fewer threats. I have a bad temper and do not tolerate others ordering me around. Otherwise, I cannot guarantee your fate!"
Gu Jixiao remained fearless, his tone flat.
At this moment, the Yin Yang Immortal Venerable stepped forward, looking cheerfully at Gu Jixiao.
"Fellow Daoist, to be frank, we have important matters to discuss with you. It is not suitable for outsiders to be present. How about the four of us chat privately?"
Hearing the Yin Yang Immortal Venerable's words, Qin Daowei suddenly felt a surge of tension in her heart.
She was genuinely worried that Gu Jixiao might back down when facing the Three Great Saint Venerables and then abandon her.
But the next moment, Gu Jixiao's words completely settled her fluctuating heart.
"Apologies, I don't think we have anything to discuss.
After all, your people are about to attack my Ancient Heavenly Emperor Dynasty, aren't they?"
Hearing Gu Jixiao's words, the Three Great Saint Venerables were stunned for a moment, and the Karma Immortal Venerable suddenly reacted, looking at Gu Jixiao with a solemn expression.
"You are?"
"I forgot to introduce myself. I am the Emperor Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Emperor Dynasty, Gu Jixiao!"
Upon seeing that the person before them was the Emperor Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Emperor Dynasty, the expressions of the Three Great Saint Venerables instantly turned grim.
They never expected the Ancient Heavenly Emperor Dynasty to be this powerful, nor did they expect that what the Five Elements Immortal Venerable said was true—that the Ancient Heavenly Emperor Dynasty's Peak Immortal Venerable had only just emerged.
However, after considering the current situation in the Saint Realm, the Three Great Saint Venerables forcibly suppressed the anger in their hearts.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, you should also be aware of the current situation in the Saint Realm. The Gui Huan Clan is aggressively invading our Saint Realm.
And the Lord of the Gui Huan among them is extremely powerful. The last time he descended, he was already at the Peak Immortal Venerable Realm. It is likely that the next time he descends, he will reach a Realm above Immortal Venerable.
Only by uniting all the mighty figures in our entire Saint Realm do we have a chance to trap the Lord of the Gui Huan!
Therefore, let's put past matters aside for now and deal with them slowly after we resolve the Lord of the Gui Huan?
The Karma Immortal Venerable took a deep breath and then looked at Gu Jixiao to make a proposal.
But Gu Jixiao shook his head, then directly summoned an immortal emperor artifact.
"Apologies, I will naturally deal with the Lord of the Gui Huan, but as for you three, you will leave your lives here."
Qin Daowei obtained an Ethereal Law for him, and since she had become his woman, he would naturally fulfill his promise to her.
Moreover, he could tell that these Three Great Saint Venerables harbored ill intentions toward him.
He had no habit of keeping hidden dangers around, so eliminating the Three Great Saint Venerables was the wisest choice!
When the Three Great Saint Venerables saw Gu Jixiao preparing to fight without further ado, their faces also turned grim.
"I say, why waste time talking to him? Let's just fight!"
The Destruction Saint Venerable struck first, charging toward Gu Jixiao.
The Karma Immortal Venerable and the Yin Yang Immortal Venerable were stunned for a moment upon seeing this, and then they both attacked together.
Since winning over Gu Jixiao was clearly impossible now, it was best to eliminate him here; otherwise, he would surely become a major threat in the future!
Watching this scene, Gu Jixiao's expression remained flat, but his heart felt a subtle sense of anticipation.
After all, they were Saint Venerables, existences standing at the pinnacle of the Saint Realm. For his first battle after breaking through to the Peak Immortal Venerable Realm to be against three Peak Saint Venerables—how could he not be excited?
The next moment, the form of the immortal emperor artifact in Gu Jixiao's hand shifted, and a long sword took shape.
The Destruction Immortal Venerable raised his hand, and the incomparably terrifying Power of Destruction blasted out toward Gu Jixiao.
The Power of Destruction annihilates all things and is a top-ten ranked Law.
But Gu Jixiao's expression did not change. He swung the Immortal Emperor Sword slightly in front of him, directly annihilating that terrifying Power of Destruction.
"What!"
The Destruction Immortal Venerable was stunned, his heart filled with shock.
The Karma Immortal Venerable realized something and looked at the Immortal Emperor Sword in Gu Jixiao's hand with a solemn expression.
"Be careful, his weapon is not simple!"
The Karma Immortal Venerable was the most powerful among the Three Great Saint Venerables. Thus, the moment Gu Jixiao made his move, he sensed that Gu Jixiao's inherent strength was actually similar to theirs, and the truly formidable aspect was the weapon in Gu Jixiao's hand.
Following the Karma Immortal Venerable's reminder, the Destruction Immortal Venerable and the Yin Yang Immortal Venerable nodded in acknowledgment.
But just then, Gu Jixiao raised his hand and threw the immortal emperor artifact. Instantly, the artifact transformed, forming a cage that sought to seal the surrounding space.
The current situation was that if the Three Great Saint Venerables wanted to flee, he might not be able to keep them. Therefore, he needed to strike first and prevent them from escaping.
The Karma Immortal Venerable immediately sensed something was wrong and vanished with a flicker of his body.
The Yin Yang Immortal Venerable was slightly slower but also escaped before the cage fully formed.
As for the Destruction Immortal Venerable, he was a bit too slow to flee, and by the time he wanted to escape, the cage had already formed.
"Damn it!"
The Destruction Immortal Venerable's expression turned ugly, his heart filled with rage.
Part of it was because the Karma Immortal Venerable and the Yin Yang Immortal Venerable had abandoned him and fled first, but more so because he, a dignified Peak Immortal Venerable, would one day fall to such a state.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, is there truly no room for turning back in this matter?"
Looking at Gu Jixiao, who was expressionless before him, the Destruction Immortal Venerable took a deep breath, already preparing to fight desperately.
If Gu Jixiao truly intended to fight to the death, then even if he died, he would drag Gu Jixiao down with him.
