Chapter 830: Chapter 406 Retreat, Pursuit_2
In the end, it was only by uniting all the forces of Nine Li Mansion that they were barely able to withstand the opponent’s attack.
But everyone knew that this balance could not last long; once Heaven’s Glory Palace and Purple Blood Valley’s Subordinate forces arrived to provide support, the previous balance would be utterly destroyed, and Nine Li Mansion would be completely divided up by the leading forces of Heaven’s Glory Palace, Purple Blood Valley, and True Word Temple.
Fortunately, the Subordinate forces of Heaven’s Glory Palace, Purple Blood Valley, and True Word Temple each harbored their own designs and guarded against each other, which allowed them to seize the opportunity and launch an attack.
Of course, the most important factor was the timely arrival of support from Green Flame Palace; otherwise, they would have had no chance against the joint assault from the three sides relying solely on the strength of Nine Li Mansion.
Watching Zuo Qiuhou, the World Master of Heaven’s Glory Palace, tear open a Void Crevice, Tuoba Feng did not pursue.
It wasn’t that he was seriously injured by Chou WanYun’s self-destruction; such wounds could be suppressed and he could still engage in high-intensity combat.
The reason he didn’t take action to stop him was that he knew it would be in vain.
At the World Master level, the ability to preserve one’s life and the means to do so are plentiful, making it very difficult to kill oneself.
Although he was a World Master of the Heaven and Earth level, it was very difficult to defeat or severely injure an Initial-level World Master.
The reason he managed to force Chou WanYun into self-destructing was that he had previously concealed his strength, and only after triggering the self-destruction, and finally using a treasure like the Banishing Orb to block the opponent’s retreat, was he successful.
Now that the others were prepared, attempting the same trick again would not achieve the same effect.
“All members of Li Mountain Sect and its Subordinate forces, heed my command: chase down those who flee, until they are completely driven out of Nine Li Mansion!”
The resounding voice, mixed with a kind of profound power, while boosting the morale of their own, also created a sense of oppression for the retreating members of Heaven’s Glory Palace and Purple Blood Valley.
World Master Realm powerhouses cannot interfere in battles below the Entering Saint Realm, but that does not mean they cannot have an impact.
If World Masters were of no use, they wouldn’t appear on the battlefield at all.
On another front, Wei Chijun, who was fiercely battling the Domain World Master, grew more and more valiant. With the third level of his sword domain, he could fight on equal terms with the Domain World Master who was one level higher than himself.
With a movement of his arm, he swung his sword, and the terrifying sword domain condensed to its extreme, gathering into a powerful sword radiance, which easily tore through the Void, stirring endless torrents, and then slashing hard at the Domain World Master.
Faced with such a formidable move, the Domain World Master had no choice but to momentarily retreat from the sharp edge, shifting to one side.
But at that moment, he seemed to receive a message, and his brows furrowed slightly.
“Losing so quickly, what a bunch of waste,” Wei Chijun muttered to himself after receiving news of the retreat of Heaven’s Glory Palace and Purple Blood Valley.
What had been an excellent situation had been turned around by the enemy.
However, he was also astonished by Tuoba Feng’s strength; the latter had already become a World Master of the Heaven and Earth level and possessor of a treasure like the Banishing Orb.
“The situation is set, continuing to fight holds little benefit for True Word Temple; it’s time to withdraw.”
With that thought, his will to fight vanished. He glanced at the Domain World Master and said indifferently, “Neither of us can defeat the other in a short time, continuing is pointless, shall we stop here?”
The Domain World Master did not speak, simply ceasing to act.
This gesture was the best answer.
“Hehe, in that case, let’s fight again another time,” Wei Chijun said with a light laugh. A blood-red Great Dao appeared beneath his feet, along with a giant longboat, suspended midair, large enough to obscure the sky.
He waved his hand, and True Word Temple’s disciples below the Entering Saint Realm were enveloped in a strange light, then vanished on the spot.
Even the Heavenly Pride of the Unity Realm Six-Layer who was impaled by Lu Yun with the Nether God’s Spear on a mountain peak was enveloped by that light before being whisked away.
Lu Yun’s expression grew solemn as he glanced at the figure on the blood-red Great Dao in the Void.
“Is this the capability of a World Master-level powerhouse? Spanning tens of thousands of miles, to effortlessly rescue someone from one’s grasp, these methods are simply heaven-defying,” he murmured.
Moreover, the area covered by the opponent’s Divine Ability extended over most of the battlefield; most of the True Word Temple disciples in jeopardy were rescued just in time, done in the blink of an eye.
Such methods, if used to eliminate himself, would probably be effortless.
Thinking this, Lu Yun held even greater reverence for World Master Realm powerhouses.
Seeing Wei Chijun move to rescue the disciples of True Word Temple, the Domain World Master frowned slightly but immediately took decisive action to stop it.
Thus, Wei Chijun’s rescue was interrupted, and those disciples of True Word Temple who were in crisis were slain, while those retreating continued to be pursued.
“Enough, enough, I won’t make a move,” Wei Chijun said helplessly, waving his hand.
“Hmph, since we have stopped fighting, we shouldn’t interfere in the battle. If you act again, we must continue the battle that has not yet ended,” the Domain World Master warned coldly.
“Ah, still so serious. I was merely lending a slight hand to rescue a few disciples, not really intervening in the battlefield,” Wei Chijun sighed.
The Domain World Master gave a cold smile without responding, keeping a close watch on the other party, ready to act at any slight move.
If it were not for the hopelessness of capturing him, he would even consider taking action to tie him down until Tuoba Feng and the others arrived, to join forces and slay him.
