The countless disciples behind them, hearing the piercing laughter, were all filled with righteous indignation and joined the fray one after another, but it was all to no avail, and they were all knocked to the ground.
Mo Qi stood outside the circle, his heart burning with rage. It was too arrogant, too bullying!
As a disciple of the Shangqing Sect, he hadn't been initiated for long and didn't have much sense of belonging, but seeing Guang Chengzi charge in so recklessly, trampling on everything, his heart burned with fury.
He wanted to use the Fantian Seal, but its power was too great, and he feared harming the innocent, leaving him momentarily at a loss.
Moreover, even if he used the Fantian Seal, he might not gain any advantage against Guang Chengzi in his berserk state.
Guang Chengzi, as one of the Twelve Golden Immortals of the Yuqing Sect, cultivated to the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm, only one step away from Da Luo Golden Immortal. Crucially, his foundation was solid, and his destiny was divine. Ordinary people truly couldn't deal with him.
As for the disciples of the Biyou Palace, apart from Duobao Daoist and Jin Ling Sheng Mu, the other disciples had shallow roots and were essentially just cannon fodder.
After clashing with Guang Chengzi a few times, they were routed at the slightest touch. Realizing the gap, they all turned their gazes to Jin Ling Sheng Mu and Duobao Daoist.
"He's a Taiyi Golden Immortal, and you are also Taiyi Golden Immortals. He's so formidable, why are you so cowardly?"
Jin Ling Sheng Mu and Duobao Daoist were internally collapsing. They also felt no significant gap between themselves and Guang Chengzi, yet they couldn't win, for reasons unknown.
They could only attribute the reason to Guang Chengzi striking first, causing them to be injured and their combat power to be discounted, hence their inability to defeat him.
However, the arrogant Guang Chengzi at this moment cared nothing for objective reasons. He already believed himself invincible within the Biyou Palace, capable of taking on the entire Shangqing Sect single-handedly.
He then laughed with extreme wildness and impunity, surveying everyone in mid-air like a god looking down on ants: "Hahaha, you monsters, if you're no good, you're no good. Why pretend? I'm not bragging, but disciples of our Yuqing Sect's third generation, like Li Sanlang and Yang Erlang, could fight their way from the front gate to the back. You are truly too weak. With such cultivation, just keep a low profile, don't speak up, walk to the side, and no one will say anything to you. Don't be so conceited and show off everywhere."
The disciples of the Shangqing Sect were all furious, their eyes spitting fire, and they charged forward like madmen.
But they were all routed at the slightest touch. Many were beaten back into their original forms. Gui Ling Sheng Mu revealed her true form, transforming into a giant tortoise crawling on the ground. Ling Ya Xian turned into an elephant, roaring wildly in the hall...
Guang Chengzi became even more unbridled: "Hahaha, as expected, you are all born of wetness and hatching, with fur and horns. Reveal your true forms, come, let me see what you are..."
He then charged among the Shangqing Sect disciples, intent on turning everyone into their original forms. The Shangqing Sect disciples, seeing their fellow disciples transformed, felt deeply wounded. Their pride stung, they all fled into the distance, fearing Guang Chengzi would pounce on them and turn them into their original forms, as if this were more terrifying than death.
Thus, a comical scene unfolded: Guang Chengzi moved like a lion among a pack of wolves. When he turned his back to them, others would pounce from behind. But when he turned around and swept his gaze, he would immediately scare those people into retreating repeatedly.
Guang Chengzi's pride at this moment was beyond imagination. He was even thinking of coming to the Shangqing Palace more often to show off and boost his confidence.
The entire Shangqing Sect was simply a mob, unable to withstand a single blow.
At this moment, the events in the Biyou Palace attracted the attention of Lingbao Tianzun, who was in the heavens beyond the heavens. He was furious. On one hand, he cursed his disciples as useless cowards in his heart, and on the other, he rebuked Guang Chengzi's arrogance. With a surge of anger, he silently arrived at the Biyou Palace.
Seeing his disciples being wronged, he wanted to intervene several times, but to deal with a junior, even if he won, he would have already lost.
Therefore, he anxiously looked around, hoping someone would step forward to teach this arrogant fellow from the Yuqing Sect a lesson. However, wave after wave of disciples went up, only to end in failure.
One after another, they either lay on the ground unable to rise or were forced into their original forms, losing their combat effectiveness.
Lingbao Tianzun sighed inwardly, "Forget it, what's done cannot be undone. The face has been lost completely. Let's end this farce quickly."
He was about to shout angrily to stop the fight.
Just then, a furious roar, like thunder from a clear sky, preceded his words: "Guang Chengzi, if you have the guts, come out and fight. I'm waiting for you outside."
Following the sound, a white-robed youth with an unrestrained and elegant posture was seen gliding towards the outside of the main hall.
"It's that new guy, what was his name again? Can't recall."
"Alas, his cultivation is so low, he'll still lose if he goes up."
"But, let's watch anyway. It's good for him to know the gap between himself and the opponent."
Guang Chengzi heard Mo Qi's voice and followed without hesitation.
This was because, at this moment, almost all the Shangqing Sect disciples present were down, and he was the only one still standing. He would not allow this situation to exist.
He intended to knock everyone down before leaving.
Moreover, he had taken his Fantian Seal, and he planned to deal with him and then retrieve the Fantian Seal.
He felt that with his strength, he could completely handle the Fantian Seal.
Outside the main hall was a plaza, and Mo Qi stopped upon reaching it.
Turning around, he saw Guang Chengzi catching up and then took out the Donghuang Bell.
At this moment, Guang Chengzi was getting closer and closer behind Mo Qi. Wanting to strike first, he flicked his whisk, and countless fine divine lights erupted, striking towards Mo Qi.
As the divine lights traversed, they continuously expanded, forming a single mass, like a red sun roaring towards him.
Mo Qi placed his hand on the top of the Donghuang Bell, aiming the bell's mouth at the red sun.
In Guang Chengzi's view, it was like an abyss without a bottom appearing before him.
"Pangu's divine power, shatter the void!"
It was also a round of sunlight, but white. It squeezed out of the Donghuang Bell, and with a sudden sound, it was like a beast breaking free from its restraints, letting out a deafening roar, baring its teeth and claws as it lunged at the opponent.
The white divine light continuously expanded and rotated, its tearing and crushing power spreading infinitely, churning the air and the surrounding space into distortion.
It was like a rapidly rotating meat grinder, with layers of blades spinning madly, continuously grinding forward, the cold light flashing incessantly.
As the two forces collided, continuous sounds of shattering objects could be heard. The red and white lights intertwined, like living beings, biting and tearing at each other.
For a moment, light and energy flickered, and sand and stones flew.
The red light and the white light permeated and collided with each other. At one moment, the red suppressed the white; at another, the white suppressed the red.
Two figures darted back and forth, shifting positions, moving up and down, left and right, appearing and disappearing within the red and white beams of light, yet undeniably present.
Because of their movements, the red and white divine lights moved rapidly, colliding and tearing at each other, brilliant and intense.
The disciples of the Shangqing Sect stumbled out of the main hall. Seeing this scene, they were all stunned!
A Xuan Immortal and a Taiyi Golden Immortal were actually fighting on equal terms, locked in a fierce struggle!
This had truly subverted the worldview of many!
"Why did Guang Chengzi suddenly become so slow?"
"Was he holding back when dealing with Mo Qi?"
"And why was he so ruthless when dealing with us?"
Lingbao Tianzun, hiding in the shadows, was also greatly shocked. "This, this is too miraculous."
"It can be said that this person is an absolute combat genius!"
"His ability to challenge those of higher cultivation without falling behind is absolutely not accidental."
"Firstly, his physique is excellent, and his defense is strong, making it difficult for others to injure him; secondly, he possesses an exceptionally powerful magic treasure; and finally, and most importantly, he knows how to reasonably develop the magic treasure and his own strength, effectively combining the power of these two aspects to unleash their strongest lethality without reservation, forming a combined force that causes power to erupt exponentially."
Guang Chengzi's astonishment was also indescribable. He had thought that the opponent would only contend with him using the Fantian Seal, and in that way, he could barely hold on for a while. However, he had not expected that the opponent would actually abandon the Fantian Seal and give up the most effective means of attack.
Under such circumstances, it was tantamount to courting death!
However, he never expected that even without using the Fantian Seal, the opponent would still have the strength to fight him.
This made him extremely annoyed. "Could it be that my Taiyi Golden Immortal cultivation is fake?"
"Too arrogant!"
As Guang Chengzi danced his whisk, he suddenly tapped his brow, and a red light shot out, striking towards Mo Qi's head.
"It's over. Mo Qi will definitely be unable to free his hands and unleash a second attack. This is why people with low cultivation cannot resist those with high cultivation," the Shangqing Sect disciples said one after another.
"Yes, after all, he is a disciple of my sect. He still can't defeat the opponent."
"What are you saying?"
"I'm just stating facts."
"It seems like what you're saying has some truth to it."
Lingbao Tianzun was sweating profusely. He really wanted to go up and help, yet he also wanted to see how long Mo Qi could last, and even more so, how he would deal with the current situation.
Mo Qi's Heavenly Eye divine ability could also emit divine light, but it was certainly unable to resist the opponent, so he did not activate his Heavenly Eye divine ability.
Without him making any visible move, an arrow-shaped light shadow within his body suddenly surged out, roaring like thunder, with great momentum, as if it were a divine stroke, as if it were born to counter Guang Chengzi's Heavenly Eye divine ability. With a deafening roar, the light and energy shattered, light particles scattered everywhere, sand and stones flew, and smoke filled the air, lingering for a long time.
The two figures continued to dart back and forth within the light and energy, soaring up and down.
It seemed that Guang Chengzi's strategy to break the deadlock had not been effective!
People let out a collective gasp of "Yi."
At this moment, their hearts were filled with mixed emotions. They hoped someone from the Biyou Palace would step forward to challenge Guang Chengzi and defeat him, but if that person wasn't them, then they would be the embarrassed ones.
But at this moment, a strange collective consciousness prevailed. Most of them were enthusiastically cheering for Mo Qi: "Junior brother, put in some effort, kill him."
