Boom!
The moment the sound fell.
In the peaceful market, a sky-piercing blood aura erupted, instantly evaporating the water vapor within a thousand-meter radius, turning it into sizzling white smoke!
In the state of Heaven and Man Unity, Chen Jiuyang's combat power stood at its peak, his red, blue, and gold auras intertwined. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was violent, and the space of heaven and earth was compressed, as if it were pouring down like raindrops!
Ferocious!
Terrifying!
Ming Huatong and Yang Zijiang, who remained at the scene, were horrified and terrified by this sight!
Such a scorching blood aura truly reached the point of moving heaven and earth!
"Buzz buzz buzz!!!"
The long-silent Yan Sheng Saber once again let out a clear saber hum. The moment the saber was drawn, a saber aura, brilliantly intertwined with fire, golden origin, and laws, appeared. The ultimate combat power of the weapon path surged towards Lian Sheng Old Mother!
Seeing this, Lian Sheng Old Mother's expression changed slightly, and her face became somewhat grim: "Good, good, good!!!"
"State of Heaven and Man Unity!!!"
Having lived for nearly ten thousand years, how could she not know that attacks in the state of Heaven and Man Unity were irresistible? Moreover, she had just fought a fierce battle with Emperor Yan and was now heavily injured!
Her heart was filled with extreme anger. She was truly like a tiger fallen into the plains, bullied by dogs!
"Brat!!!"
Lian Sheng Old Mother let out a furious cry, and then her aged figure turned and fled directly.
This saber strike missed its target and landed on a small mountain in the distance.
"Rumble!!!"
Under this saber strike, the small mountain abruptly turned into thousands upon thousands of neat stone blocks, scattering in all directions.
And Lian Sheng Old Mother's figure was rapidly escaping.
At this scene, both Chen Jiuyang and Ming Huatong were stunned:
"This old monster actually fled..."
"Grandmother is actually choosing not to face him head-on..."
Ming Huatong's breathing quickened. This indicated that Chen Jiuyang's combat power could truly threaten their grandmother in her current injured state...
Then, Chen Jiuyang's figure rapidly pursued Lian Sheng Old Mother.
Ming Huatong grabbed Yang Zijiang by the back of his neck and turned into a stream of light, chasing after Chen Jiuyang's figure.
And at this time.
The Heaven Ranking was updated.
Heaven Ranking:
First place: Qin Shujian! Affiliation: Forbidden Land Remnant Old Village.
Second place: Yan Fengyun! Affiliation: Dragon Country Guardian.
Third place: Lian Sheng Old Mother! Affiliation: Forbidden Land Immortal Dwelling Clan.
Fourth place: Bai Ri Yue Ri! Affiliation: Forbidden Land Unmanifest Palace.
Fifth place: Luo Xingchen! Affiliation: Forbidden Land Emperor Burial Mountain.
Sixth place: Qi Wushuang! Affiliation: Big Dipper Star Qi Tian Sect!
Many people fell silent after seeing this ranking update.
It seemed that the rankings issued by the Jixia Academy were more of a reference.
Although Lian Sheng Old Mother had previously appeared on the ranking, she was quite reliable, ranking around four hundred and something. However, after yesterday's battle, she instantly climbed to third place.
Many people speculated that the Jixia Academy's version of the ranking was more about recording the peerless powerhouses appearing in the Dragon Country and might not necessarily be able to gauge their combat power.
Looking at the affiliation behind Qi Wushuang, many people's eyes flickered:
"After tens of thousands of years, the ancient path of the Human Emperor on Earth is about to open, and the martial arts powerhouses from the Small Immortal Realm are descending..."
"Their current hidden movements should only be to probe the situation."
...
A place bordering the southern region of the Dragon Country.
Qi Wushuang, dressed in the magnificent robes of the Qi Tian Sect, looked at the sea shrouded in terrifying dark clouds in the distance with a solemn expression: "So the Chongming Sea has been missing for a long time, and it was hiding at the starting point of the Ancient Path of the Great Emperor. What a deep calculation..."
Then he slowly turned around, his golden eyes containing countless etched lines of rules: "It is often said that the Big Dipper Star is the Emperor Burial Star, filled with mystery and ill omen..."
"But isn't this mortal world even more bizarre and ominous?"
"If I hadn't walked the martial path, I would have likely collapsed my Dao heart immediately upon descending here... Correspondingly, the Forbidden Immortal Path, I wonder whose supreme imperial means it is."
...
The Mountain and River Ranking was also refreshed immediately.
However, the rankings had almost no changes.
Chen Jiuyang was still in twenty-first place.
The top twenty were almost entirely occupied by the Five Great Sacred Lands.
Forbidden City Sacred Land.
Xia Daosheng was watching the newly updated Mountain and River Ranking: "Still eighth place... Hmm? The Heaven Ranking has the Big Dipper Star?"
"It seems the Golden Age is about to arrive, and the Ancient Path of the Human Emperor will open. I must seize the time to ascend to the Imperial Dao as soon as possible, otherwise, I will miss this era's Ancient Path of the Human Emperor..."
At this moment, a warrior in purple and gold armor walked over and whispered a few words in his ear.
"Hmm? What? The Demon of Qianyang is pursuing Lian Sheng Old Mother, who is third on the Heaven Ranking????"
"How is this possible..."
Xia Daosheng suspected he was hallucinating.
A powerhouse on the Mountain and River Ranking pursuing a peerless powerhouse on the Heaven Ranking?
Another part of the Forbidden City Sacred Land.
First place on the Mountain and River Ranking.
The Saintess of the Forbidden City, En Fu Ben.
This woman, who had created her own martial path several years ago, had crossed the Earth Realm in a short period, entered the Heaven Realm in a matter of days, and half a year later, entered the Venerable Realm! Her cultivation speed was not inferior to Chen Jiuyang's!
She possessed the legendary Seven-Orifice Exquisite Heart and was a born martial arts prodigy!
En Fu Ben also learned of Chen Jiuyang pursuing Lian Sheng Old Mother at the same time.
With the intelligence systems of the Five Great Sacred Lands and the Six Doors, almost nothing under the sun could be hidden from them.
En Fu Ben's beautiful eyes flickered: "Interesting. As the leader of a sect, to still do something so imprudent."
"It should be quite lively. I can go and see."
...
Forbidden Families.
Mainly consisting of the Immortal Dwelling Clan, Emperor Burial Mountain, and Unmanifest Palace.
Lian Sheng Old Mother was a guiding light pushed out by the joint efforts of the Forbidden Families to navigate through the darkness of the Age of Dharma Decline.
Having lived for nearly ten thousand years, she was now being pursued by a young man under thirty years old, and had even forced Ming Huatong to send a distress signal, alarming the Forbidden Families of the three forbidden lands.
Ming Chengdao, upon hearing the news, his eyes burned: "Brother Chen, although his combat power before was enough to overshadow his peers, it had not yet reached the point of being able to kill Lian Sheng Old Mother."
"Now, amidst the war between the righteous and demonic factions, he is actively pursuing Lian Sheng Old Mother. This can only mean that his combat power has undoubtedly improved further."
"I should go and witness it. I imagine it will be very lively."
...
Even the Demonic Path was stunned by the news.
At this time, during the war between the righteous and the pseudo-righteous, the Sect Master was not stationed at the front line or sitting high in his hall.
Instead, he went to...
But after learning that the Sect Master was pursuing an old monster who had lived for nearly ten thousand years, and then thinking of the Sect Master's age, everyone fell silent.
This was not a level they could concern themselves with. They just needed to do their own duties.
...
In the strong wind, Chen Jiuyang's three-colored flowing light flashed back and forth, like a star.
His expression was solemn as he continuously pursued Lian Sheng Old Mother:
"This old monster..."
"Even in such a severely injured state, she still possesses such strength. The Eight-Life Immortal Gathering Method is truly terrifying and cannot be judged by ordinary means..."
"With nearly ten thousand years of martial arts accumulation, such power should not be underestimated by me!"
