The crowd was discussing when suddenly a thunderous explosion echoed from the distant horizon, followed by a massive mushroom cloud rising into the sky. The entire sky was marred by numerous pitch-black cracks appearing everywhere like popping firecrackers.
Clearly, the Master Law Sovereign and Bu Liqing had begun their battle.
Ning Tianya and the others looked solemnly towards the distance, their expressions complex.
The level of cultivation possessed by the Master Law Sovereign and Bu Liqing was something these few people had longed for but had yet to achieve.
The booming sounds continued to resonate in the distance.
Moments later, a flash of lightning cleaved the sky in two! This bolt of lightning seemed to connect the blue sky with the earth, its grandeur truly unmatched!
"Mercy Sword! Bu Liqing has made his move!" The crowd gasped in shock.
The expressions of the Night Emperor and Xiao Se turned serious.
Seeing this strike, both of them thought of one thing simultaneously: if Bu Liqing's sword was aimed at them...
They exchanged a glance, seeing the tremor in each other's eyes.
"Everyone, go back. Don't even think about spectating; battles of this level will only harm our confidence!" Ling Fengyun chuckled.
The other second ancestors laughed as well, albeit with forced smiles.
Just as everyone was about to leave, the ground suddenly trembled beneath them. They looked out in horror to see lightning flashing like a series of interconnected bolts, densely filling the sky, illuminating the area as bright as day.
And opposite the sword light, a mountain was floating, being wielded like a colossal hammer, crashing down towards the sword light, again and again...
"It's Master Law Sovereign! It's the Heaven and Earth Law Divine Skill!" The crowd inhaled sharply.
Picking up a mountain and throwing it was something everyone there could do.
But to lift a mountain and smash it down, then retrieve it to smash again... that required a force more than a hundred times that of lifting a mountain!
And yet, the Master Law Sovereign continued to bring the mountain down repeatedly, to the point where it was reduced to dust! Bu Liqing's sword light still hung in the air.
Above Heaven's Secret City, fine stone dust and debris floated, turning the atmosphere hazy.
Witnessing this scene, all the second ancestors sighed in unison, momentarily lost for words.
..............
As Bu Liqing and the Master Law Sovereign departed, a white shadow shot forward at an incredibly fast speed, reaching the hiding place of Chu Yang and Wu Qianqian several hundred zhang away.
"Have you seen enough? Let's go." The white shadow grabbed one person with one hand and then waved the other hand in the air, making a sharp sound.
Chu Yang and Wu Qianqian watched as the space before them was torn apart like a piece of cloth. Within this ripped fabric, mountains, rivers, and buildings appeared to rush toward them at a terrifying speed before vanishing.
Subsequently, Zixie Qing stepped out with both of them in tow.
This step felt like crossing life and death, traversing the Yin Realm!
After stepping out, Chu Yang and Wu Qianqian found themselves outside Heaven's Secret City, in a desolate wilderness.
"Ripping apart space. A step of a thousand miles!" Chu Yang gasped.
He knew Zixie Qing was powerful, but he had no idea she could tear apart space and transport two people a thousand miles in one step!
"Wrong!" Zixie Qing said lightly, "This place is two thousand seven hundred miles from Heaven's Secret City!"
Chu Yang was instantly dumbfounded!
Beside him, Wu Qianqian stared at Zixie Qing as if in a dream, her head spinning.
Since following Chu Yang, Wu Qianqian had witnessed the rise and fall of dynasties, seen brutality, and grown indifferent to life and death, gaining insight into life itself. She had also experienced shock. After becoming a disciple of Yue Lingxue and Feng Yuru, Wu Qianqian had broadened her horizons significantly.
Under normal circumstances, such things would not shock Wu Qianqian anymore, nor would they disturb her peace of mind.
