Since it's connected to the Heavenly Dao world,
this scene before them could be considered a trial of sorts.
That's why the Heavenly Dao system intervened at this moment.
Chu Tian suspected that Dao Tian might be behind all of this.
However, everything Dao Tian did was for Chu Tian, for his growth.
At this moment, Zu Yunxi was already very close to Chu Tian.
Up to this point, Chu Tian was still just looking up at him.
What seemed like lightning speed to others was not fast at all in his eyes.
Seeing Chu Tian's appearance, that guy paused his extremely swift movement in mid-air, but only for a moment.
"Heh heh..."
Chu Tian chuckled foolishly at this moment.
That guy's heart skipped a beat.
"You..."
He braked abruptly, nearly crashing into Chu Tian from just ten meters away.
"Me? Why did you stop? Weren't you going to possess me? Come... your third master Chu is standing right here, waiting for you!"
However, Chu Tian's calm demeanor made that guy indeed wary.
He didn't know why Chu Tian was so composed.
On the surface, his strength was enough to crush Chu Tian.
Why were you so incredibly calm, kid?
Did he have some follow-up move, some trump card?
The two figures stood facing each other like this.
Chu Tian stopped speaking, a faint smile on his face.
Zu Yunxi, on the other hand, felt his aura constantly shifting.
At times it would surge, and at other times it would slowly recede.
...
"Yaya, how much longer until it's ready?"
Chu Tian asked anxiously in his mind.
His expression was completely different from his outward appearance.
"Almost ready! We're going to make a fortune this time! Such a massive amount of soul power as nourishment, my本体 will evolve.
Even Yueyue and the others will receive significant boosts!"
Yaya didn't appear directly before Chu Tian.
Instead, she spoke while swaying her tree canopy.
Countless branches on the canopy were weaving themselves.
It looked like a large net.
But it was arranged in an orderly fashion.
Upon closer inspection, it resembled a formation cage.
"Don't get too excited yet, are you sure this will work?"
Chu Tian expressed his concern.
That guy was just too strong.
"It should be fine!"
"As long as he doesn't destroy the divine platform, with a two-on-one plus our help, we should have a sixty percent chance of keeping him here!"
Yaya explained to Chu Tian.
Upon hearing the sixty percent chance, Chu Tian was still not entirely satisfied.
Even with a 9.999 percent chance, he wouldn't want to take the risk.
If they failed, they would all perish here.
However, after such a long time,
Chu Tian had not found any method to defeat the opponent with a hundred percent certainty.
This was the only way left.
A desperate gamble to turn a bicycle into a motorcycle.
...
"Ah... ah..."
Suddenly, Zu Yunxi couldn't hold back any longer.
His aura surged wildly.
He shouted furiously.
"Kid... you're tricking me, right? Today, I'm going to see what trump card you really have!"
As he spoke, he lunged at Chu Tian like a vengeful spirit.
Chu Tian's eyes narrowed!
"Open the Divine Platform Gate!"
He roared.
Zu Yunxi, who was lunging forward, saw the open Divine Platform Gate before Chu Tian.
He didn't hesitate at all.
Instead, he showed a look of disdain.
"Haha, you want to compete with me in soul power? On your home ground? Let me show you what crushing defeat means..."
Seeing Chu Tian open the Divine Platform Gate, that guy knew Chu Tian was trying to lure the tiger into its lair!
However, Chu Tian, who thought his soul power was very strong, was being looked down upon at this moment by someone who was once revered as a soul master.
It couldn't be entirely blamed on the opponent.
That old monster had gathered the soul power of countless valiant spirits.
His soul cultivation was immeasurably strong.
Naturally, he wouldn't care about Chu Tian!
What he coveted was Chu Tian's physical body.
Despite his powerful soul, he would still be restricted without a physical body.
To obtain such a powerful body.
It would greatly benefit him in the future.
Chu Tian watched as the guy, without hesitation, rushed into the Divine Platform.
He didn't know how to feel.
It was the first time he had been so looked down upon.
And...
He didn't have a hundred percent certainty either.
Although, just before Zu Yunxi rushed into his Divine Platform,
Yaya's voice also came.
Telling Chu Tian it was ready.
Chu Tian instantly retracted the Divine Platform Gate.
He sent a telepathic message into the distance.
Then, his consciousness also entered the Divine Platform.
In the distance, Hai Yue heard a voice.
Her face showed extreme worry.
Not just her, but everyone around her.
All felt the same!
"This... he actually opened the Divine Platform and let that guy in?" Ali naturally knew what Chu Tian had opened!
Even if others were not soul masters, they naturally knew about the Divine Platform.
Their current cultivation levels were not enough to open a Divine Platform.
But when they reached the required level, all cultivators had to open a Divine Platform.
However, they couldn't manipulate their soul power as freely as soul masters!
They could only enhance their perception and comprehension of cultivation.
"What do we do now?"
Bu Shi Yi asked softly.
"A'bu... you take them back to the second layer first!"
Hai Yue said.
Bu Shi Yi glanced at Jin Ling.
He nodded.
This time, he didn't say anything more. They had suffered this tribulation.
Out of the more than 100 people who entered, fewer than thirty remained.
Most had died at Chu Tian's hands, but he couldn't be blamed entirely.
If he hadn't intervened, Hai Yue and the others might have been the ones to die.
Now, they could only try their best to ensure the survivors left alive.
Bu Shi Yi, at this moment, naturally wouldn't waste time with words.
He beckoned to those who had originally followed Zu Tian,
and began to head back towards the entrance to the second layer.
However, they took a detour, as the straight-line distance was exactly where Chu Tian was.
He was currently sitting cross-legged.
No one knew what was happening within his Divine Platform!
Zu Yunxi, without any obstruction, passed through Chu Tian's Divine Platform Gate and entered.
However, upon entering, he discovered that he was not inside Chu Tian's Divine Platform at all.
But rather, in a sphere woven from wood.
"Hmph, you think this thing can trap me? Should I call you foolish, or just foolish?"
As he spoke, he charged towards the edge.
These vines had been woven into a sphere by Yaya using her branches and leaves.
It occupied almost half of Chu Tian's Divine Platform space.
Chu Tian, meanwhile, was outside the sphere.
Watching Zu Yunxi inside charge towards him.
This guy wants to possess me, I must first eliminate my own consciousness.
Only then can I control his physical body.
He stood there silently.
Although he felt worried,
He still chose to believe Yaya.
Bang...
His trust was not misplaced.
Zu Yunxi, who thought his soul body,
could not be blocked by physical objects.
Unexpectedly, as he tried to penetrate, the vines suddenly emitted a verdant green light.
And his soul body, like a cannonball,
was repelled flying backward.
"What? Impossible? What is this?" He couldn't believe it!
In his understanding, no physical object could block the penetration of a soul.
He was just a phantom.
Only a spectral body.
Only some formations could obstruct him.
But this thing before him was definitely not a formation.
He sensed it with his soul, and it was clearly just ordinary vines.
Why did it emit energy that he couldn't penetrate?
Through the gaps in the vines, he looked towards Chu Tian's direction.
Below Chu Tian, a massive tree canopy stretched upwards with countless branches and leaves. This cage was woven from those branches.
"Within your Divine Platform... how can there be a living entity?"
This guy simply couldn't believe his eyes.
Within the Divine Platform, in his understanding, it was a vacuum space bag.
Just that it grew inside one's head.
There couldn't be any living things here.
Not even plants.
"Heh heh, you can't do it doesn't mean I can't! Old man, accept your fate!"
Chu Tian chuckled.
He moved his body and entered the space as well.
Without any restrictions.
"Haha, I knew you were a fool. I was just wondering how to get out, and you just walked in!"
Zu Yunxi was blocked and found the anomaly of the place.
His face was grim just now.
He cursed himself for being careless.
So this kid really did have a trump card.
He was just contemplating how to get out of here.
Chu Tian had walked in, which seemed incredibly foolish in his eyes.
Why not just watch from a safe distance?
Although he was uncertain, he never thought he could be trapped forever.
This kind of thing could never be a long-term solution.
He seemed impatient, thinking of his next move.
"It's not decided who dies. Your third master Chu is in a hurry and doesn't want to dawdle with you...
Let's fight!"
As Chu Tian uttered those last three words,
a series of shouts erupted.
The Four City Lord Seal transformed into a young child, appearing instantly on his sides.
Whoosh...
The Wrath of the Moon God also shot out from a gap.
Landing in Chu Tian's hand.
This time, upon returning to the Divine Platform, Yueyue had not appeared.
She seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep.
"Hahaha..."
Zu Yunxi, seeing this scene, almost laughed until tears streamed down his face.
"Four artifact spirits? Not bad, not bad... you really have some good things! But I'll take these for you!"
He completely disregarded Shou Shou and the others.
Chu Tian was already weak enough.
Four immature brats were no match for Chu Tian.
And now they were going to fight him?
They were merely delivering themselves for slaughter.
"Soul Secret Art... Soul Stab..."
Chu Tian spoke no further, directly channeling his divine origin power within the Divine Platform.
The soul power that had turned into liquid in the lake was divine origin.
It was the storage of soul power.
And as he uttered these words,
the Wrath of the Moon God in his hand also instantly shrunk.
And hid directly within the thousands of soul stabs that Chu Tian unleashed.
"Good, let my wife teach you how to behave!" Zu Yunxi waved his hand, and pale purple flames transformed into a starlit sky.
As these stars appeared, they collided with Chu Tian's soul stabs!
The two clashed with their soul powers.
Zu Yunxi, who clearly had the upper hand, had a smile on his lips.
Chu Tian's soul stabs were repelled by his starlight, but his starlight also disappeared.
"Hmm? Solidified soul power, you've got some strength!"
Chu Tian remained silent.
His eyes, however, held a hint of excitement.
He used the Soul Stab skill again, but this time, it surged dozens of times.
Countless soul stabs, numbering two to three hundred thousand.
At this moment, the divine origin power within Chu Tian's Divine Platform plummeted.
Zu Yunxi frowned.
"Do you think quantity is enough to make a difference? Let's see, do you have more or do I have more!"
Starlight bloomed again, a truly spectacular sight.
Chu Tian became even more excited.
He directed the soul stabs, furiously firing them at Zu Yunxi.
