“Buzz—” The void trembled as a mass of milky-white light, filled with rich vitality, suddenly appeared above Tan Yun's head.
The high priest widened his eyes in shock and exclaimed, “You little bastard, not only can you reverse time, but you can also unleash the legendary Spatial Prison and Source of Light!”
In that moment, the high priest felt fear, knowing that he had to escape the range of the Spatial Prison quickly; otherwise, he could very well die.
“You can’t escape!” Tan Yun's murderous intent echoed, “Zi Xi, you deal with him first!”
“But I can’t catch up to him…” Before Fang Zixi could finish her sentence, the binding force of the Spatial Prison on her vanished in an instant with Tan Yun's thought.
Now back to her normal speed, Fang Zixi rushed towards the high priest at a speed three times that of his.
The high priest, releasing his divine consciousness, suddenly stopped fleeing.
Did he not want to escape?
Of course he did! But he knew he couldn’t escape at all, and he would be leaving his back exposed to Fang Zixi, who was three times faster than him.
He also understood that, severely injured as he was, he was now evenly matched with Fang Zixi. If they were evenly matched but he was three times slower, turning his back to her while fleeing would mean he would be mercilessly slaughtered!
Rather than facing sure death, it was better to take a risk for a glimmer of hope!
“This high priest has roamed from ancient times to the present; I don’t believe I will die at your hands today!”
The high priest stood on the air, suddenly turning back, unleashing the ancient Dao Ancestor Power that obscured the sky and the sun from within him. Holding his sword in his right hand, he drew mysterious trajectories before thrusting a sword strike at Fang Zixi, who was charging from above.
“Boom, boom!”
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—”
As the high priest thrust his sword, the void began to collapse, and in front of him, the void transformed into tens of thousands of gigantic sword auras, exuding a terrifying aura as they surged towards Fang Zixi like a wall of swords towering to the heavens!
“High priest, this palace master admits that without Tan Yun, it would be difficult for this palace master to escape today. But now, do you really think this palace master still fears you?”
Fang Zixi's beautiful eyes revealed a glimmer of cold light as the spatial power within her burst forth, her speed increasing dramatically. She transformed into a beam of light, soaring into the sky to dodge the wall of sword auras that stretched for miles before diving down with the Divine Sword towards the high priest.
“Now!” A glint of cunning appeared in the high priest's eyes. He flipped his right hand, and a wind-attribute divine talisman suddenly ignited, forming a whirlpool around him that reached a million feet.
“Fang Zixi, you fell for my trick! Once I catch Tan Yun, let’s see how you intend to kill me!”
The high priest grinned wickedly as his speed doubled, dashing rapidly towards Tan Yun!
“Tan Yun, be careful!” Fang Zixi shouted in alarm.
“Zixi, even if his speed doubles, under the Spatial Prison, he is still no match for me,” Tan Yun transmitted with a sinister smile. “I will confront him head-on; Zixi, you cover me from the back. With us attacking from both sides, he’s doomed!”
As Tan Yun finished transmitting, under the coverage of the Source of Light, his lost left leg and both arms began to grow back rapidly like bamboo shoots after rain.
“Canggu, Golden Mercy… kill!”
With a furious roar, twelve Divine Swords, including Canggu, Golden Mercy, and Muxin, flew out from his forehead, piercing through the void, and charged towards the high priest, who was now thousands of feet away!
“Whoosh!”
The seven-colored beam shot from Tan Yun’s forehead, transforming in his hand into the Seven-Colored Divine Spear. Tan Yun, wielding the spear, activated the primordial divine step and followed the twelve Divine Swords towards the high priest!
